Well, I am back home, moved in, and of course, returned to the hellhole called school. I failed NaNoWriMo again, but that is ok. I now have two original characters that I am madly in love with (mafuyuhotaru. if you want to see pictures of Allen and Mika. Yes, I draw!). Anyway, sorry for the delay. Things are going up again. My biggest grammatical errors: 'to' and 'too.' Do enjoy, the next chapter of Butterfly Kisses.

I do not own Rurouni Kenshin in any way whatsoever. I do, however, own any characters that I may introduce as my own, and this plot line. If I catch you stealing it, you grovel at my feet and beg forgiveness, or die.

"Kamiya Kaoru-sama and I were wed a fort-night ago!" The words kept ringing throughout his mind, as he continued to stand there in the dispersing crowd. He had looked right at Kaoru when the words were said. The man had seen her pale, and then obviously use some strength to escape the bastard's grasp, thus escaping to the inside. Kenshin did not know what to think; whether he should believe it, or not. He knew that Shishio would do anything without consideration of others, and marrying Kaoru would be something the man would most gladly do. But, Kaoru would never have allowed it. She loved him, the red head, didn't she? Yet… was her love for him enough to prevent a matrimonial bond?
The assassin finally came to his senses, and realized there were very few people left. He too decided to leave. Before turning around, however, he saw Shishio staring hard at him through a window, with a very smug look on his face. That enraged the Hitokiri, and that was when he knew it was time to put the plan in action. It would be done within a week. The man did not care whether or not the rooster head thought everything was perfect in the plan. He had to get Kaoru away from the bastard. Whether or not they were really wed.

"WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING!" Kaoru yelled at her captor. By now, she was no longer sick. She was extremely pissed off. The man had found her in the bathroom, and forced her to get up, and half dragged her down the hall into his room, "There is no way in hell that I would ever marry you!"
Shishio was staring at her amused. He burst out in laughter, "We are not married you whore. I intend on it, one day, but you are still too feisty to be a wife for me. You have yet to submit." He trailed a finger down one of her arms. Kaoru pulled away. He continued, "You don't seriously think I didn't know he was there? I knew he would be. If he really loves you that much, the man will attempt to get you back anyway. Of course, he won't succeed, but I will get some form of respect for him before I kill him."
Kaoru's blue eyes darkened in anger. He had taken things way too far. It was about time that she take things into her own hands. She closed her eyes, and summoned forth some of her power. Her eyes opened silver and she stood up from where she had been on the floor, "It is time you die!" She began to gather up her energy. The girl felt everything surge up within her, ready to burst forth in one huge force, thus killing the man once in for all.
She released the energy, but what happened, was the least expected. It was let out, heading straight towards a smiling Shishio, but rather, it rebounded, attacking her, "AAAH!" She was fallen to the ground, as she cried out in pain. The girl clutched her arms close to herself, as she tried to get rid of the power that could, at any moment, crush her. And then, it all stopped.

"Tonight." Those were the words that escaped the assassin's lips when he entered the room that Sanosuke was waiting in. The taller man had his eyes slightly narrowed, "Are you sure? The plan still has its faults…"
Rather, Kenshin sent him a death glare, "I saw her today. We are getting her out of there. I don't give a shit how it happens." The man faced the other, "I don't know why the hell you have been making us hold back and wait. It is almost as if you don't want Kaoru to come back to us. As though you would rather have her be with him!"
The outburst was a first. Something that had not happened before, and Sano seemed a bit taken aback by the red head's actions, "Woah man, if it was that hard, you should have said something."
"That hard!" Kenshin was now challenging Sano, "You know nothing of it. Tonight." He turned to leave, his hand gripping his sword, but before he could leave, the spiky haired man gripped his shoulder, "I know what it is like to be separated from a loved one. I went six months without being able to see Megumi. And though the situations may be different, the feelings of loss are just the same." Kenshin paused, but then left the room. Something had gone wrong, and he knew it.

YOU LOVE ME RIGHT?
OH GOD. This chapter is REALLY REALLY REALLY lame. I have been lame of late, and I suppose it is taking its affect on this chapter. Gross. BUT, I have it out of the way, and next chapter is going to be so much fun. I left you guys with a cliffhanger for Kaoru. What the fuck happened?
Sorry it is really short too. I wont make lame excuses, because excuses are, well, excuses. Anyway, at least you guys know I have not deserted the story. School is hell right now, trying to catch up in Algebra II, but that is ok. I SHALL LIVE. XDD
