Regular POV
"Why did you attack
Ms. Kaoru?" Kenshin barked.
"Oh, well you see Ms.Kaoru over
there she tried to kill me ten years ago, and I wished to repay her
gratitude." Seethed Mamoru.
"She is injured, you must let me take her to a hospital." Kenshin asked.
"I don't know, I mean I think she should die, but then again she always was beautiful. The way she would kiss me, it would make any man want her. I know I did." Mamoru whispered.
"Don't you talk about Kaoru like that!"
Kaoru POV
Kenshin, I have to stay awake, I have to make sure he is alright. How is he alive? I watched him die in my arms and he was dead, and yet he stands in front of me. I am so tired, I don't think I can make it, Kenshin, I want to go home.
Regular POV
"Kenshin…"
"Kaoru, stay down, your wound is still bleeding, you need to stay down." Pleaded Kenshin.
"Kenshin, be careful, please he is ruthless and he…." Kaoru said as she faded out of consciousness.
"Kaoru! You have hurt Ms. Kaoru that you have, and I will not tolerate that!" Kenshin proclaimed as he drew his sword.
"Oh, little Battousai wants to play? Kaoru warned you but, what does she know? She will be dead from blood loss soon, and you will die by my sword!" Mamoru boasted as he drew his katana.
Kenshin POV
Kaoru, hang on just a little bit longer, I swear I will get you help!
Regular POV
"Why? Why? She is the root of all my problems! You and your stupid group have put a damper in my plans! When you and Kaoru die, I will be able to conduct my plan. My plan to bring down Tokyo, and with you and her gone and your pathetic group unable to stop me I will bring flames and blood raining down like hell to Tokyo!"
"Why do you wish to bring pain and death to Tokyo, and even if we are dead, there are others who will stop you!" Kenshin presented
"Oh, you mean that old wolf and the pathetic Aoshi and that weasel of a leader? They are but two people. You would need an army to bring me down." Mamoru raged
"I will not let that happen. I will protect Kaoru and Tokyo will all my being!" Kenshin promised
"Well, then your "being" will be in pieces along with my fiancée!" Mamoru screamed as he drew his sword toward Kenshin.
"I will protect Tokyo!" Kenshin promised
"Well then what about Kaoru?" Mamoru yelled as he ran past Kenshin toward Kaoru, sword in killing position.
"NO!" Kenshin screamed
"Ahhh, uhh, Kenshin……." Kaoru whispered as she slowly reached out for him, her delicate hand covered in blood, her blood.
Kenshin POV
Oh god. No. I plead with you, let it not be her, why not me, why again another women that I loved?
Regular POV
"Did I hurt her?" Mamoru asked as he plunged his sword deeper into her wound.
"I will leave you to wallow in her blood, she looks dead enough, don't you think? Or do you want to kill her to…like your wife Tomoe? Mamoru snickered
"You bastard, I will kill you, and you will feel my sword in you heart and then I will cut you into so many pieces you won't know what to put back together!" Kenshin swore.
"Oh, did I bring out the bad in you?" Mamoru asked
"Well, I have no desire to kill you at THIS point. I did love her, and I at least own her a grave. So why don't I just dump her body into the sea! He bellowed!
"You will not touch her!" Kenshin screamed as he ran toward Kaoru.
"Till later Himura, and when I kill you, tell Kaoru, she would've been a great in bed." Mamoru slithered
"I will find and kill you, I promise." Whispered Kenshin as he ran to Kaoru
"…..Kenshin….."
"Kaoru, oh god your still alive."
"Kenshin, I am so cold."
"Here, come on Kaoru, stay with me!" He said as he wrapped her in his arms
"Kenshin…I want to go home."
"I swear you'll get home to the dojo and everyone will be there! They will be waiting for you with open arms."
"Kenshin……I don't think I'm going to make it, I'm don't say that, you will get home and you know what? I'm going to get down on one knee and ask you to marry me." Cried Kenshin.
"Kenshin, your crying… and I would love to be your wife…but…."
"Kaoru, come on don't leave me! Kaoru say something!
"Kenshin, hold me…….."
"I'm hear love, please hold on, I'm gonna get you some help."
"NO, I want to just lay here in your arms and watch the stars, please I want to be in your arms, and then I'll fall asleep…."
"No, you are not gonna fall asleep, because you might not wake up, come on, we are almost to the clinic, and they, and they can heal you and.."
"Kenshin, I am dying….please I just want to be in your arms when… I die…."
"No, you aren't dying! Do you hear me! You are coming home to the dojo and Yahiko is gonna call you ugly and Sano will….god Kaoru, don't leave me…"
"Kenshin, have I told you that I love you?"
"No, but…please let me get you to a clinic!" pleaded Kenshin
"Kenshin…"
"Kaoru, please hold on…."
"I don't think I will be able to watch those cherry blossoms with you next spring…"
"Of course you are, we are gonna watch them under the tree and…. I'll hold you…and.."
"Kenshin…I'm scared…I don't want to die.."
"You aren't, you are gonna be okay…"
"I…" Kaoru tried to say as she was interrupted by a sputtering of coughs, she was coughing up blood.
"I love…you….and I hope you know that…." She said as blood dipped down her lips and stained her white gi.
"Kaoru…."
"Kaoru , come on…."
"…please…say something….."
"God, no, not again….Kaoru, please, open your eyes!"
"Open them….please…open them…."
"KAORU!" Kenshin yelled as he screamed to the heavens.
And the heavens pitied hum, for it started to snow. Just like ten years ago.
