AN UNEXPECTED MEETING

The next morning Koaru had asked Kenshin to go into town to buy some tofu for dinner that night. Kenshin was more than happy to

and soon was off. On his way back, out of the corner of his eye he saw someone blur by with the same scent, white plum blossoms.

He quickly dropped the tofu and ran after that stranger. Kenshin thought he lost track of that person when there it was again the same

scent and this time he was able to catch a glimpse of this stranger and it was a girl. She was running into an ally. Kenshin, without

thinking automatically followed her. what he was about to witness next was something he hadn't been ready for.

"Please help me" the woman pleaded before she fainted on the floor.

Kenshin stared wide-eyes and the woman on the floor unable to move.
