R.S.: Well everybody. This is the final chapter. I'm so sad to end it, but it must be done. This story can't last forever after all. If it could, they would be in their hundreds talking about the past and that would be boring.

You guys really helped me come back up from my depressed days. I hate to say it, but for some of the people who have touched me… I feel like I've known you forever. It's going to be a shame to let some of you guys go.

This is why for everybody who still wants to hear about what goes on and what story ideas I have, I made a new e-mail account. It's called you don't feel like reviewing to let everybody read it, then you can just use this one on the side.

-my msn name is "The light inside is right beneath your skin"

-I have a xanga, so you guys can read it and see what i'm doing while i'm not on fanfiction doing stories.

I really want to keep in touch with some of the people who have changed this writing career for me into a good one. There are many names and I want to say thanks to all of them.

And now… we go into the final installment of this Rurouni Kenshin adventure.

It's always that one person

By: Rampaging Sorrow

Chapter 27: It's always that one person

"Kaoru, you know the plan, right?"

With a confused look, the Kamiya girl turned to Michael and she nodded before she winced at the wound. It still hurt like hell and it wasn't fully healed. It was just healed enough to let her leave the hospital. Michael got up and made her lay back on a pillow he bought her. He was so happy that she was okay that once he had heard the news, he left school and ditched everything to see her.

Kaoru blew her bangs from her eyes and then she gave Michael a smile before she put some more t-shirts into a small suitcase. The two were going into the last part of their plan to escape, and Kaoru was more than excited. They had secretly bought a beautiful house in Italy and enrolled into one of their best high schools. They had one week to go and begin.

"I can't believe we're really going to do it… what do you think my father will say when he finds out?"

"He'll be pissed at you for a very long time Kaoru. You ready to have your father hate you?" Kaoru thought about it, but with a sad smile she nodded and she pulled her hair behind her ears.

"It's going to be better for everybody here. I know it's going to hurt everybody, but it's for the best. What about you Michael? Your family will miss you."

"True, but I'm doing a good thing, so I can use that to cheer me up." Kaoru smiled at him softly before she closed her suitcase and went over to him singing a new song she was making.

"Passion." Michael said breathlessly and he let her sing the song to him as she straddled his waist and hugged him close to her. Jacob walked by and then he smiled as the two cousins were just thinking and speaking softly of what they were going to do when it all actually began to sink in to them.

"Damn. Kenshin's lucky that he's her cousin. Otherwise, he would've been dumped a long time ago."

"KENSHIN SLOW DOWN YOU CRAZY ASS PRICK!" Aoshi gripped his seat in fear as Kenshin laughed and dodged through traffic. He was going to pick up Kaoru from the music studio and the way he was driving was reckless. Tommy sat in the back seat strapped in tight since he was scared as well. Jacob was only laughing and having fun just like Kenshin was.

"Kenshin, whatever I did to you, I'm sorry. Please just don't drive like this. I'm still scared from my crash."

"Man up Aoshi!" Jacob laughed and Kenshin saw an obstacle. He drove up straight towards a big truck. Aoshi and Tommy looked on in horror as they saw the truck slowing down.

"KENSHIN STOP!" Tommy yelled and Kenshin just looked back at him, gold eyes excited. The two boys screamed and Kenshin drove into the lane driving the opposite way.

"Are you crazy! Get out of this lane!" Kenshin just gave Tommy the finger and then he let go of the wheel. Aoshi grabbed it as a car was coming for them and he steered them out of the way as Kenshin answered a phone called.

"YOU SONOVABITCH!" Aoshi yelled and he grit his teeth as he steered out the way of another car. It honked at him, and as soon as they passed the truck, Kenshin took the wheel with one hand and he looked over at Aoshi as he drove back over into the right lane.

"See Aoshi? You're not that scared. Your mind just says that." Aoshi didn't think and he grabbed Kenshin's neck. Kenshin gasped for air as Aoshi tried to strangle him and they began to swirve left to right.

"AOSHI LET GO YOU MORON!" Aoshi let go and Kenshin caught his air before speeding up as revenge. Aoshi looked on in fear as they were going to crash into the wall.

"Kenshin, don't do it." Kenshin just went faster.

"Kenshin, please don't do this." Kenshin only smirked and his hands began to let go of the wheel.

"Kenshin, no!" he let go and Tommy and Aoshi both screamed as Jacob leaned forward and took the wheel from behind. Kenshin guided him as he steered and told him the degrees to turn.

"You two scream like my bitches when I'm doing the nasty." Kenshin began to laugh and slap his leg as he leaned his head forward and watched the two angry men fume and sit back.

Kaoru sat outside of the studio waiting and drinking a bottle of chocolate milk. She jumped slightly and then she got up and began to bounce since she needed to move. It was getting cold. She saw Kenshin's car pull up and do a 360° spin. She giggled as he got out and ran over to her. Kenshin said 'yay!' and he hugged her tight earning a squeal from her as they spun around a few times.

"What took so long?"

"We're fucking with Aoshi because he's still scared about driving. Wanna whip it?" Kaoru lookd at him and then the car. Kenshin saw the devilish glint in her eyes and he handed her the keys.

"Let's go babe."

Aoshi sat in the back with the two brothers and the three of them let out a scream, Jacob's one of excitement, the other two of fear. Kaoru was worse than Kenshin. She didn't care who was watching and she was just driving up next to cars and cursing out anybody. Kenshin laughed with her as she shut her window and swerved into a peron's lane. The person honked and Kaoru raised her middle finger through the sunroof.

"Kaoru, contorl yourself!"

"Why? This is fun!"

Aoshi let out a scream as they were coming up to a draw bridge. He saw the mischieif in the three's eyes and he prayed and pleaded with Tommy as they stopped. Once the drawbridge began to raise, Kaoru took off again and switched gears.

"Kaoru I beg of you! Please!" Kenshin gripped his seat in excitement as Jacob folded his arms and let out a squeal that matched Aoshi's. Kaoru began to laugh loud and she switched gears again. They went through the cars and then they went up the ramp as the cars honked behind them. They let out a scream and they were in the air. Kaoru switched gears back down as they went over the gap. Aoshi and Tommy screamed in fear and the others screamed in the adrenalin of it.

The car finally went to the other side and down the ramp before Kaoru did a 180 and kept going.

"YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL BABY! THAT WAS AWESOME!" Kaoru smiled and blew the hair from her eyes before Aoshi leaned his head back. Tommy leaned against Jacob catching his breath. Kaoru began to sing as she went to being reckless once more.

"I love this girl!" Kenshin laughed into the air and Kaoru gave him a smirk before she leaned over to kiss him. Jacob took the wheel from behind and Aoshi sighed as he laughed like a maniac.

"I swear to god if I don't die from this, I don't know what I'm going to die from. Daddy killing me for the scratches on the car."

Kaoru jumped on Michael's back and they waved at the truck as it took away their boxes of clothes. Their suitcases were being sent to Italy and they only had backpacks for the plane. Michael held her up as they walked away from the sidewalk and back into the house. Shinji came in moments later with a suspicious look on his face. Kaoru and Michael arched their eye-brows as he loosened his tie and sat down.

"Kaoru, where are the suitcases?"

"I sent them to the school already. The truck just left. It'll be too much to carry."

"But you wear uniform there."

"Not anymore. The uniform rule is gone because nobody was wearing it the way they asked. They figured why waste more money and they just gave up on uniform."

"I see." Shinji then got up and he looked back at her.

"You better be telling me the truth. I hate liars." Kaoru kept her cool and she nodded to him before he left. Once he was gone, she showed her hand to Michael and he let out a laugh as her fingers were crossed. The two leaned back and kicked their feet up before Kaoru stared up at the ceiling.

"This is so weird. Me, you, leaving everything behind. How can you just act so calm about it Michael?" Michael sighed and he looked up at the ceiling, his light blue eyes starting to darken.

"I'm just trying to be calm for you. If I flip out, you're going to think that it's not such a good idea and abck out." He jumped up and he took her hands into his with a smile before looking at him.

"We have to go through with this plan. There's only six days left until we get out of here for a long time. You and me both have to be calm about this, and we have to be confident. We can't give up now."

"I know that Michael. But… what if we're kicked out of the family forever?" she looked down sadly and Michael pouted as he began to think about that as well.

"Kaoru." Kaoru turned to him and she saw his serious look.

"Are you having second thoughts?"

"No."

"Are you thinking of backing out?"

"No."

"Are you going to regret what I'm about to say?"

"How do I know; you didn't say it yet." Michael then smirked and he ran his hands through her hair.

"We'll be alright Kaoru. I have faith that we'll get through this. Even if we get kicked out of the family, we'll be free. Just remember that." Kaoru gave a soft smile and she leaned against him before letting out a sigh.

"Free…"

"Where the hell is she going Tommy?"

"Beats me. I'll come pick you up later." Kenshin did his favorite handshake with Tommy before the boy drove off. Kenshin looked back at the woods and he sighed before he began to follow Kaoru using his speed. He saw her stop and he hid behind a tree, holding his breath. Once he saw that she was moving again, he began to follow her once more.

Kaoru looked around before she kicked away some grass and she saw a pothole. She was about to open it, but her senses kicked in and she noticed somebody was there hiding their ki very well. She thought about it for a long time before she decided to let the person follow her. She opened the pothole and she jumped down before jogging off quickly. As she reached her destination, she hid behind a rock with a pocket knife, violent thoughts in mind.

Kenshin jumped down and he opened up his cellphone before he used the light from it to walk down the hall. It was quiet and his footsteps echoed. He shivered slightly and then he pulled a flashlight from his pocket. He turned it on and then he looked at the wall.

"Shut-up." He said in a mumur as he looked at the japanese gold and blue writing on the wall.

"It's like I fell in ancient Greece and Japanese people took over." His ears picked up the sound of water and then he took a few pictures with his camera before he kept on walking. He saw a faint light and once he went through an opening, he saw an underground waterfall that had been clean and untouched.

"Wow. This is-" he never got time to finish as the pocket knife Kaoru was holding was put to his throat quickly. He looked down to see Kaoru glaring up at him, eyes ice blue. Once she recognized the gold eyes staring back at her angrily, she let go with a gasp.

"Kenshin! Baby I am so sorry." Kenshin arched an eyebrow and rubbed his neck before Kaoru sighed and put the pocket knife away, the ice in her eyes beginning to fade.

"What are you following me for baby?"

"Because I want to see you. We have six nights left, and I just want to spend every minute of the day with you." Kaoru gave him a soft smile before she moved towards the water. She lowered her skirt and Kenshin opened his eyes as the seductive girl began to do a dance for him as she stripped her clothes. The only thing that Kaoru kept on was her underwear. Kenshin's head moved with her as she danced and then she went into the water.

He sat there and watched as she splashed water all around her until she got soaking wet. She turned to him, a sexy smile on her face as her hair covered her breasts. Kenshin went over to her and he got on his knees before pulling out his camera phone. He took two pictures, his mouth watering at the sight of her, before he put his phone aside with her bag.

He kicked off his shoes, his socks, and his pants before hesitating and then throwing his shirt aside as well. Kaoru looked up at him with an innocent yet seductive look as he walked over slowly and he smirked at her. He stepped in and then he moved towards her. Kaoru leaned close to him, lips ready to kiss, and once Kenshin came over, she took water and splashed him.

"Gotcha! Ha! You didn't think I was going to kiss you, didn't you?"

"…. I'm not going to answer that." Kaoru giggled before she began to splash and get Kenshin wet. Kenshin just stood there and took it as Kaoru poured water over his head. Once she was done, Kenshin's bangs covered his eyes. He gave a smirk and he shook violently, Kaoru squealing and getting wet. She looked at him with a playful glare as stuck his tongue out at her.

"You'll pay for that Himura."

"Really Kamiya? I don't see any payback-ack!"

Kaoru dove into him and they both fell into the water with a splash. Kenshin pushed her away and Kaoru just kept jumping back on him. He laughed because she had a pretty smile on her face while she nibbled and knawed on his skin. He held her up and she let out a small bark.

"You're a playful dog, aren't you?" Kaoru kicked him in the water and he laughed as she pushed him into the water and went over to the waterfall. She went in deeper and the water began to crash and fall over her head. She turned her back to him and she dropped her shoulders before Kenshin went over to her and he stepped under the waterfall as well.

He turned Kaoru around to him before she gave him a soft smile and moved so they were standing across from each other. Kenshin leaned his head down so that he could whisper into her ear. Kaoru put her forehead to his shoulder as he whispered soft loving words into her ears. She then looked up at him with a loving smile. Kenshin put his hands on her hips before she slipped her arms around his neck. He pulled her closer and then he lowered his head to her awaiting lips.

Kaoru didn't know why, but this kiss felt different from all others. Usually the two just kissed out of boredom, or kissed for fun. This kiss… this kiss was filled with only one feeling. And that was love. Kenshin stroked her thigh softly as he slipped his tongue inside her mouth. She opened her eyes low to see his gold ones gazing back at her. They went straight through her soul and read exactly how she felt. Kaoru didn't care anymore and she expressed all her feelings just as he expressed his.

Kenshin closed his eyes once more along with her and then the two ignored the fact that in six days they wouldn't see each other for a year or longer. They just focused on the present and didn't want it to end. As they let go, Kenshin rested his forehead against her raven locks as she began to cry softly. She didn't want to admit it, but she was starting to have second thoughts about leaving.

'I don't want to leave… because… because I'm afraid…I'm afraid you'll forget about me.'

Two Days Later(meaning four days left)….

"Weee! Weee! Higher Kao-kao! Higher!" Kaoru smiled and tied her sweater around her waist as she pushed Yahiko on a swing, Kenshin in front of her ready to catch him once he jumped.

"You ready to fly like an astronaut, Yahiko!"

"Hai!" he cheered happily. Kaoru pushed him again and he got higher.

"Ready!... Set!... Jump Yahiko!" Yahiko let go and went up high into the air. He let out a scream of excitement at the height he got. Kaoru was worried that Kenshin wouldn't catch him. The redhead moved backwards and then he caught the flying boy before he fell into a pile of hay. Kaoru began to laugh with him as Yahiko looked around happily.

"Let's do it again!" Kaoru walked over and she helped him out of it before she flipped her ponytail back over her shoulder. Yahiko had a big smile on his face as he jumped up and down.

"Can we do it again Kao-kao!"

"Not right now, Yahiko. We have to go and get ice cream or the day isn't complete."

Yahiko began to jump up and down and scream 'Ice cream!' happily in Japanese. Kaoru gave a smile as she blew some hair from her eyes. Kenshin picked him up and placed him on his shoulders before he began to walk forward and hold him close as he let him grab different leaves that he wanted to put together as a project for his father. Kaoru gave another soft smile before she jogged up to catch them.

Once they got to the ice cream parlor across the street from the park, they ordered ice cream and sat down. Yahiko's nose was leaking and Kaoru pulled out a tissue from her pocket before she put it over Yahiko's nose. Yahiko blew and she wiped his nose before Kenshin put it in the garbage can that was next to him. Some of the people smiled at how caring the two teenagers were with Yahiko. One of the old women decided to go and tell them. Kenshin and Kaoru looked up with soft smiles as they were helping Yahiko color the paper that was on the table.

"Me and my husband think that it's just so sweet how you two take care of your son like that. Such loving parents. The world needs more of that." Kaoru and Kenshin both gave a slight blush and tried to explain, but the women walked off humming to herself and leaving the parlor with her smiling husband.

"She thinks Yahiko is our son… that's so cool!" Kaoru let out a squeal and Kenshin just shook his head with a smile before he thanked the man as their ice cream came. Yahiko looked excited as Kaoru sat him up on a few book that were right next to them.

"Look Kenny! Chocolate frosting! Daddy never lets me have this!"

"Eat up now then. I can't sneak you out too much." Yahiko gave a small prayer and Kaoru smiled and rested her cheek on her fist as he took his ice cream into his small spoon and put it into his mouth.

"Mmm!" Kaoru tucked a napkin into his collar as he kept on eating and placed one in his lap before she and Kenshin began to share a chocolate sundae.

"Kenshin, what am I going to do?" Kenshin looked up, chocolate on the tip of his nose. Kaoru giggled and she leaned forward before kissing his nose softly. He smiled at her softly before he saw her slightly frown and look over at Yahiko eat and get some ice cream on his face, eyes filled with happiness.

"What am I going to do about Yahiko? He's like my son. He's apart of my life so much. How am I going to live without him?" Kenshin gave her a sad smile and he put his forehead to hers as people walked by and gave soft smiles at how cute they looked.

"I want to take him so badly, but what would happen if I did? Would daddy sick the FBI on us?" Kenshin began to think about it as she pulled away and wiped Yahiko's mouth. He thanked her and he kept on eating as Kenshin looked back over at Kaoru.

"I have an idea, but this is going to kinda fuck up your plans."

"Watch your mouth!" Kaoru hit him on his shoulder and he gave an apologetic smile.

"What's fuck Kao-kao?" Kaoru gasped and turned to him shocked. Kenshin winced and he then hissed as Kaoru stomped on his foot under the table.

"Yahiko, that is a very very bad word. You should never use that word. Understand me? Kenshin is a very very bad person and when he uses that word he gets on punishment. God doesn't like that word."

"Why doesn't God like that word?"

"It's a sin baby." Yahiko then looked at Kenshin.

"No more sins Uncle Kenny!"

"No more sins." He said weakly as his foot was in so much pain it was going numb. Kaoru then removed her foot from on top of his and she looked into his eyes.

"What were you going to say about another plan?" Kenshin gave her a glare as she smirked before he smirked himself. Then he sighed and spoke.

"You can take Yahiko with you."

"WHAT!"

Michael shook his head as he heard Kaoru's side of what Kenshin said. Yahiko sat obediently in his lap as he bounced, his dark brown spikes bouncing as he shook his head to right listening to Hoobastank's Lucky. Kaoru wondered how Kenshin influenced the young boy to listen to them, but once he heard them, he was hooked like a fish on a line.

"Kaoru, he's a Hoobastank fan? He's like four."

"Kenshin has him like that. Daddy's gonna kill him when he knows." Michael smirked and then he sighed and he shook his head.

"I don't think it will work Kaoru. I mean, Yahiko? How are we going to get all his files over to Italy?"

"Tai said he will. Kenshin's cousin has us covered. Come on Michael! I need somebody from this family over there. Yahiko will get to see another world and learn Italian. What kid doesn't want to learn Italian?"

"I didn't want to learn Italian. Your mother forced us all to learn it as a punishment for all of us burning down that barnyard."

"Ciò è perché lei è gaio. Gli uomini gai non sanno italiano."

"I'm not gay!" Kaoru smirked before Yahiko began to bounce more the beat speeding up in his ears. Michael then looked down and he gave a smirk as Yahiko whistled.

"It would be cool if we could take him over there… I can't believe I'm saying this…. But… yeah."

"YAY! I LOVE YOU!" Kaoru jumped over and hugged him tightly. Michael could only smile as Yahiko kept on bouncing left to right, oblivious to what was being said.

Two days left…

"Where am I going Kenshin? I feel like I'm about to fall." Kenshin smiled as he had her sweet blue eyes hidden behind a dark blue scarf. She had a small smile as she was behind led by Kenshin's hands on her waist. He had a big smile as well as they kept moving. She let out a laugh as Kenshin moved her hips left to right.

"Where are we going baby? I can't take the suspense!" Kenshin let out a laugh before he stopped her and turned her around to face him. He pulled out ear muffs and he placed them over her ears.

"Kenshin what are we doing! I can't hear anything anymore!" Kenshin just laughed softly and he kept leading her towards their destination. He heard the music pumping and he called them and told them to take it off.

"Kenshin, I heard you say something! What did you say!" Kenshin just laughed and he walked her up to the door.

With Michael and Kenshin's ideas, they all had pitched in money together to help make Kaoru a going-away party. A real one. All her friends were there, and all of Michael's friends were there to give them parting gifts and what-nots. They had hired a DJ, made small snacks, had drinks, and everything a party would have. Kenshin's father was kind enough to let them hold the party at his other house two towns away. The basement was huge and they decided to have the whole party down there. Streamers, balloons, pictures, whatever came to mind was down there. If this didn't make Kaoru feel happier to leave, then Kenshin would have to kill himself to show her it was a good thing.

"Here we go." Kenshin opened the door and he took her hand and led her down the hall from the entrance room. He took her all the way into the basement and he saw the lights were on.

"Idiots." He turned them all off and then he heard some screams and 'sssh's go around. Kaoru was still oblivious to what was going on and Kenshin thanked himself that he had thought about the earmuffs.

He led her into the party room and then he removed the earmuffs and the blindfold.

"Where am I? Why is it so dark?"

"I don't know Kao. Clap and the lights'll come on baby." Kaoru couldn't see Kenshin's laughing face and she grew suspicious. She clapped her hands twice and the lights came on.

"SURPRISE!" Kaoru screamed out of shock and they began to clap and cheer as she put a hand on her heart and looked around. She then turned to Kenshin's laughing face and she jumped on him. The two began to laugh and sway as Michael and Aoshi jogged over with party hats on, Aoshi's being a real cowboy hat.

"You idiot! I was so scared!" Kenshin kissed her softly before she looked around at everything and everybody who had on smiles and different party acessories.

"What is this baby?"

"This is a going away party!" Josue and Tommy yelled as they began to dance for her. She laughed and then the two hugged her and led her deeper inside.

"Your sweet cousin Michael and your loving boyfriend Kenshin decided that since you were having second thoughts about leaving, that this party would make you feel better!"

"Yeah! All your friends are here and you'll even meet some new ones. It's all for you." Kaoru gave a smile and she looked back at Michael and Kenshin as the two just gave smiles. Then she gasped and looked down at her outfit.

"I'm not dressed for party time!" they began to laugh as Misao came out with a bag.

She winked at Kaoru before Kaoru looked inside the bag and squealed as she saw the hottest outfit that was going to be in her wardrobe. The boys stood around her as she got dressed and then Genia came over and she sprayed her with perfume and glossed her lips. Netalia gave her some earrings from a box and then they let her fix her hair. When they backed away, Kenshin gaped at her outfit.

"WOOOOO!" the boys yelled and began to jump as Kaoru gave an embarassed smile.

Her shirt was above her stomach, and it came like a 'V' shaped as it touched just above her belly button. Her belly button had a dangling star coming from it, something she had just recently got. Her skirt was short and it made the men's minds wander as she moved her hips a little bit. It was the simple, yet it was one of the hottest outfit Kaoru had ever wore because it said 'Kenshin's bitch' on her shirt and on her skirt it said 'K.H. lover'

"Well what the hell are we waiting for! Let's party!"

Kenshin stripped his sweatpants and his jacket to show his outfit was the same color as Kaoru's, but just for a man. It said 'Kaoru's master' on his shirt and on his pants it had 'K.K. lover'. Couples thought it was cute and the DJ started up the music before Genia went up to Kaoru as competition.

She began to dance in front of her. Kaoru looked at her sister's moves as she fixed her hair and once Genia said 'bring it'… Kaoru got dirty. Genia was shocked at the moves Kaoru had. They were… well hot. Kaoru gave a seductive sexy smile before Kenshin jumped in and he got down on his knees and began to bow down to them. They laughed before he got up and gave a silly smile.

"LET THIS PARTY BEGIN!"

The black light had everybody's white clothes glowing as they danced and got down and dirty to the music. Kaoru was dancing by herself for a few minutes as Kenshin went to get a drink. She fanned herself and then she closed her eyes. Kenshin saw this as a treat and he went back over as the music kept blasting loudly. He saw her part her lips before he began to dance onto her.

Kaoru knew his body well and she began to grind back before she opened her eyes and the two got down to business. Kenshin put one hand on her hip and then he took her other into his free hand as the two began to grind their fronts. Kaoru gave him a sexy smile and he returned it before he let go of her.

Kaoru turned around and she made Kenshin leaned against the wall before the two began to grind again. Josue said 'wooo!' as Kenshin had her by one hand, Kaoru bending over as a tease. Michael was smoking and he just looked into Kenshin's eyes as the two caught the glance. Michael gave him a wink and then blew more smoke before Kenshin gave him a sexy smile.

Kaoru came back up and she leaned her head on Kenshin's shoulder before he gave her a sweet long kiss. Misao jogged to them before she pulled Kaoru away and whispered into her ear. Kaoru nodded before she walked off with Misao. Kenshin pouted, but as another girl came by that he knew, he smirked and he began to tease her and do a dance for her.

"OH MY GOOD! LOOK AT THIS!" Kenshin stopped and Tommy pulled him over from where he was and Kenshin followed him to where the girls were. He nearly died as he saw Kaoru. Misao had her hands on her knees as she danced into Kaoru, who honestly didn't mind as she grinded back equally. Aoshi was amazed and lustful as he saw Misao get down and dirty, making small noises that she knew would make them all react. Her hair was pulled up into a clip as it had gotten hot. She turned around to face Kaoru and the two began to grind their hips, Misao sucking on Kaoru's neck as Kaoru snaked her arms around Misao's waist. She looked around, her eyes looking hungrily and seductive as she bit on Misao's ear possesively. There was a camera fimling them both and once that they knew, they acted out even more because of it.

"Do you see this shit! Oh my god this'll make any gay guy turn back straight!"

(A/N: No offense to any gays out there.)

Kenshin nodded as Misao let go and the two began to lean back and wind into each other, one hand holding them up. Kenshin and Aoshi were just in a daze like the rest of the people watching two kinky girls moved against each other. Misao pulled Kaoru up to her before she told Kaoru to hold still. She went up on her and began to wind into her, raising Kaoru's shirt up until it was just below her breasts. Kenshin gasped as Misao began to bite and make small marks.

Kaoru thought it was turn-on, so as Misao pulled down her shirt, Kaoru began to grind into her as she pulled her closer. The camera still kept filming as Misao and Kaoru began to grind once more. The two split apart and began to dance left to right. Genia didn't know that Misao could get down and dirty like that. To her, it was the biggest shock to see sweet innocent Misao turn down and dirty.

"Look at Misao, Aoshi. Don't you care?" Aoshi shook his head as he kept on watching, mouth agape.

"It's Kaoru, so I don't mind. And besides… this is the biggest turn on of my life."

Misao bent over real low and Kaoru arched her eyebrow in a smile as Misao did a dance for her. Kaoru took both her hands and let her bend forward again as she danced harder and harder into her. Misao began to moan and then the two faced each other before they began to whisper and sway against each other.

It was the most amazing sight as Misao leaned up and kissed Kaoru on the lips dead on. Josue and Tyler held up Aoshi as he nearly fainted at the sight of the two still grinding into each other. Kaoru let go and she winked before Misao gave her a flushed smile.

Aoshi kept Misao to him for the rest of the night. He had on his cowboy hat on and a tight white sleeveless shirt. He leaned against the wall and Tyler filmed him and laughed as hand his hand on Misao's back helping her go lower. He looked like a real cowboy as he grinded and looked down at her with lust.

"That's my baby cousin! Just like I taught you!" Aoshi looked up at Tyler and he gave a smirk before he looked back down at her moving body. He didn't know why, but the small girl was making him feel like he was in heaven.

Tyler turned the camera to see Josue and Tommy tag teaming almost every girl they could find. The two stopped and did their handshake before they found a girl with glasses against the wall. He laughed at their antics before he turned to see his cousins and his sister taking a break. Kenshin and Kaoru were into each other to the point where they didn't want to stop dancing for anybody or anything. Tyler said 'aww' as the two began to kiss and make out while moving to the beat.

"Damn. It's mad late." He said to himself before a spanish girl walked up to him and began to dance in front of him. He turned the camera to his face and made a 'oh yea' face before he turned it off again and let the slim machine hang around his neck as he and the girl began to dance.

Half an hour later, Misao and Aoshi were gone. Kenshin and Kaoru had looked all around to see where they were, but they weren't in the basement at all. When they asked Tyler, he just laughed and he pulled out his wallet.

"Remember when I said I had two condoms in here, Kenshin!" he nodded and then Tyler opened his wallet with a laugh.

"I only have one now!"

The DJ smirked before he put his lips close to the mic. His smooth voice made the single women sigh as his gold eyes smiled at everybody.

"Alrighty my party teens. It's about two fifty-five. We're about to slow this down a lot. Are you all ready?" they cheered and he laughed.

"Now let's get this into effect. Slow Jam double-play" He turned it on and he got down before he walked through the crowd towards. A boy that had been sitting there and studying how he played took over and cracked his fingers. Genia as she was sitting down. Everybody began to pair up and she was the only one left out. She looked up to see him stop in front of her, eyes warm and inviting.

"Aren't you the DJ?" he nodded.

"My real name is Matthew. What's yours?"

"Genia."

"Genia… it just flows out my mouth. Care to dance with me?" Genia gave him a smile, her light green eyes attracting him even more as he took her hand and led her onto the floor. The song started over and he smiled before he put his hands on her hip.

"Aren't you quite the gentlemen?" he gave her a smile before the two began to dance.

Everybody was dancing and moving to the beat. Kenshin and Kaoru moved to the beat, their grinding slow. Kenshin leaned down and then he began to whisper into her ear. Kaoru let out a sigh as she moved deeper into him.

"I love you… so much… you are all that I need… without having your love I'll die."

"Mmm… but Kenshin…. I have to leave soon." Kenshin stopped dancing and turned her around.

"I know that you're leaving. But as long as I have your love I'll be fine." He pulled a box from his pocket before he told her to open it. He opened it and she gasped at the beautiful diamond necklace. It shimmered and sparkled against the multi-colored black lights.

"This is to show that I'm yours and yours only." Kaoru smiled before she pulled her hair up and let him put it around her neck. He smiled softly as she squealed. Then he pulled her close and he sighed into her ear.

"I want to love you for the rest of my life… I know we're not old enough to be married or even engage, but I want that necklace to signify that you are the love of my life and you will always remain that." Kaoru was shocked by the words he said, and they brought tears to her eyes.

"So what do you think Kaoru? Think you're ready for that kind of comittment?" he pulled away and then he saw her eyes watered up.

"Kao? Baby you alright?" Kaoru nodded as he wiped the two tears that managed to escape.

"Is this too much for you?" she shook her head as she wiped her own.

"This… this is perfect Kenshin. This is exactly what I was worried about. I was worried that you would want to leave me behind, but you've just prooved to me that you're just serious as I am…(sigh) my answer is, yes Kenshin. I want to be yours forever and forever more." Kenshin smiled and he pressed his lips to hers before the two began to kiss softly.

Aoshi looked over to them as Misao sat in his lap relaxing. Kenshin let her put her eyes into his shoulder and he put his arms around her shoulders as she put hers around his waist. He put his head down as well and Aoshi knew he was talking to her and telling her more things that were on his mind. Misao gave a smile and then she turned her head towards Aoshi.

"Isn't that romantic Aoshi?" Aoshi shrugged, but with a look that Misao gave him, he smirked and nodded.

"They're soulmates, aren't they?" Aoshi shrugged again, but Misao gave him another look before he gave in and sighed. Misao laid back and she relaxed before she put her head on his shoulder as he put his arms around her waist.

"Look at the DJ and Genia." Aoshi raised his head and he looked over to them as they had went from the properness to gentle slow grinds.

"They're cute together, ne?" Aoshi nodded truthfully before Misao sighed softly. Aoshi smirked before he leaned his head back.

"How was the sex?"

"Amazing. Whatever new thing that was… I wanna try it again." Aoshi gave a proud smirk before Misao sighed again. Aoshi knew the song well, and as his favorite part came up, he began to sing it in Misao's ear softly just for her to hear. She smield softly as he began to sway left and right softly in his seat holding her closely.

".Since we ain't 21, they be trying to say it ain't love
Cause we can't hit the clubs, they be trying to say we too young
I ain't saying that we trying to be grown, I'm just saying that we old enough to know
We got that young love, young love
We lucky cause we got that young love" She smiled softly at him and then she began to kiss his neck softly. Aoshi looked around to make sure nobody was listening or looking before he let her see a true smile on his face.

"I love you Misao." Misao widened her eyes, but then she smiled and pressed her lips to his gently.

"I love you too Aoshi. More than you'll ever know."

Around four in the morning, the party was still going. Asahi, Shinji, and Takashi came downstairs disguised to look like the teens. When they went down the hall past the people making out, they entered the room and gasped. The first thing Shinji said was 'IS THAT MISAO!'

"Look at Kaoru and Kenshin you two." Shinji and Takashi looked over to see them both grinding and moving to the beat, Kenshin's hand down Kaoru's skirt, Kaoru with a face of absolute pleasure as their free hand was laced together.

"NO!" Asahi held him back and he told him to lay low. Asahi turned his head and he saw Kaname making out with a boy.

"I'll kill her tomorrow." He mumbled to himself before Takashi looked at all his children.

"My kids are wild."

"Not like Shinji's kids. Those children are some beasts." Asahi said and then Shinji laughed because it was true. The three looked back over at Aoshi and they were just amazed at Misao.

"She doesn't look like the type to party like this because of her size. But look at her! She's almost as bad as Kaoru."

"And that's pretty bad." Shinji glared at them both before they looked around.

"Where's Tai?"

"He's out of town." They said 'oh' and then Aoshi let out a long moan with Misao. They then noticed the two were basically doing it through clothes. Misao arched into him as he touched a certain spot on her and she stood straight before she pulled something out of her pocket and flashed it in front of Aoshi's eyes. Asahi and Takashi gasped as Shinji was flirting. Misao took Aoshi's hand and the two left quickly, Aoshi showing a sexy smile. Asahi then tapped Shinji and he whispered what just happened before Shinji gasped.

"Those two are already doing the nasty! They're grown that bad!" the two nodded and Shinji made a note to sit the two down and talk to them.

"I feel out of place. Let's go get some drinks at that adult spot." The two danced through and then they left. Takashi then stopped.

"No!" they looked at him as he examined his watch.

"Are you kidding me? It's four fifty in the fucking morning and we're gonna go and drink while they keep on fucking up my basement! I got holes in the wall, I know people have been drinking and smoking that shit that Michael was smoking on my porch, and they have SCHOOL!"

The two thought about, and then they just laughed and went up the stairs even further. Takashi sighed, defeated by the twins, and followed them out to the car. Once outside, they all had to laugh as a boy was lying on the grass in nothing but his boxers; his body saying the funniest thing.

'I LOVE SCREWING FARM ANIMALS '

When the three got back, it was almost six and Takashi had enough. He went downstairs with the twins and he turned on the lights. Everybody hissed and turned. Kaoru narrowed her eeys and gave death glares. Kenshin did as well.

"YO DAD! WHAT THE FUCK!"

"TURN OFF THE MUSIC!" the DJ stopped the music and then they all looked at him. Misao pulled her hair up into a clip and Aoshi stood up and rubbed his eyes.

"It is six in the fucking morning! You all need to go the fuck home! I threw his party thinking you would be smart enough to end it at like three! But oh no! I got neighbors calling me at four and five and when I get here, I see all these fucking sex acts!" he turned towards Misao.

"I'm telling your parents what I've seen today from you!" she gasped and put a hand over her mouth.

"That's right. Sneaking off to have sex in my house." She gasped again and then Takashi began to bust everybody.

"No more parties until next year! Now pack up and get the fuck out!" they all began to groan and glare at him as they grabbed their things. Misao was scared because Takashi looked serious, so as Aoshi and her walked past, she begged for him not to tell.

"Please! Please!" Kaoru just smiled and she took Misao away as she began to groan and pray.

One day left…

"Kaoru you look great."

"You're fine. It's beautiful."

Kaoru twirled around in the mirror and she had to sigh because of how nervous she was. Kenshin was taking her out to dinner as her last night there and she wanted to look perfect. Her dress was something that Genia and Netalia picked out, and it was more than sexy. It was a dark blue dress with a 'V' cut. It fit her body perfect and wasn't too tight or too loose. Her hair was down and she had some over her shoulder. It had curls in it and she looked innocent… almost anyway.

Her earrings matched her outfit and her make-up was simple and it brought her eyes out A LOT. Her shoes were heels, but they weren't too high since she hated to wear them. Once the doorbell rang, Kaoru let out a sigh as Genia, Misao, and Netalia let out squeals and began to giggle.

"He's here Kaoru. We'll go downstairs, okay?" Kaoru nodded and they walked out telling her that they would call her down.

Kenshin sighed as he stood by the door, Aoshi fixing up his outfit to perfection. He was wearing a nice gold color and his hair was well groomed. He smelled heavenly and Aoshi was getting dizzy from the good aroma. He also had flowers as well. He sighed and then he kicked the air before Aoshi slapped his shoulder and fixed his pants.

"Look perfect until she gets down here." He nodded and then the three girls came downstairs to see him. They said 'aww!' and began to examine him and make some touches.

"Perfect. Kaoru will be down in a moment. Misao, go get Kaoru?"

"Righty-o!" she jumped off of Aoshi's back and she ran up the stairs, her skirt swishing from left to right as she hummed. Kenshin gulped and he pulled at his collar a little bit since he was choking.

"Don't be nervous. You look nice." He gave a soft smile, but it was laced with nervousness.

"I know that, but… this is our first serious date to something that I planned, and set up in advance. Not like the movies or any other place that we've been to as some regular date. I don't want to screw this up."

They saw his nervous look again and them Misao came down the stairs skipping two at a time, pulling her hair into a clip. She was only on the tenth out of 35 stairs when she tripped and went flying. Aoshi's reflexes kicked in quick and he moved so fast, it was almost faster than Kenshin's movements. He caught her before she could hit hard and she sighed in relief and clung onto him, both their hearts racing. The girls began to laugh and then Kenshin did as well before Kaoru yelled 'here I am!'

When he saw her, he nearly dropped the flowers. To him, she looked absolutely stunning and as she gave him a smile, most of his fears came back and slapped him in the face. Aoshi gave him a look that told him to relax and then Kaoru walked over to Kenshin and she blushed. He soon did as well. Misao pulled out her small camera and took a picture as Aoshi carried her. Kaoru gave her a glare before she turned back and bowed her head.

"Um… do you think its bad?" Kenshin gasped as she looked up at him.

"Is it really that bad?"

"N-no! Not at all! You look absolutely fabulous." Kaoru said 'thank you' and then Kenshin gave her the flowers.

"I bought these for you. Aoshi told me they were your favorite, so I figured you might like them."

"Awww, you're so sweet." Kaoru kissed his cheek and then Genia took them from her before Aoshi opened the door for them.

"You two better get going. You don't want to be late for your dinner date." Kenshin nodded and he took her hand before they bid them goodbye. Kaoru smiled softly as he let in the car and then as he got in on his side, he saluted playfully and he reversed out.

"Don't have sex you two!"

"Whatever!" Kenshin screamed back to Aoshi and then he drove off before he turned the corner. He drove a good five miles before he pulled over and he let out a sigh.

"Damn, they take too long with everything."

Kaoru arched her eyebrow and then she gasped as Kenshin pulled off his tie and his jacket. She just watched in shock as he removed his long sleeved button-up and he threw it all in the back. Once he was done, he reached into the cup that was in its holder and he pulled on his chains and bracelets.

He looked over at her shocked face before he arched his eyebrow at her shocked face.

"What? Did you really think I know how to do candle-lit dinner and all that other bullshit?... Wow, Kaoru. I'm shocked that you had that much faith in me."

"Kenshin what the fuck!" Kenshin moved back by the outburst and Kaoru began to scream at him and hit him in the chest.

"Look at me! I'm dressed all nicely and I look pretty! I hate looking like this! What the fuck are we doing!" Kenshin slapped his hand over her mouth gently and then he smiled and opened his eyes. Kaoru was amazed at the gold that flashed back at her with mischeif.

"You worry too much. I planned this, ya know." Kenshin got out the car and he went into the trunk before he came back in with a bag. He handed it to her and she gasped as she opened it up. It was all dark blue and as she pulled each piece out, a smile came over her lips.

"Oh my gosh! This is so cool!"

Kaoru turned to face Kenshin and as he unzippd her dress, she pulled it off and slipped on the shirt. Once she got that on, she kicked off her heels and she threw them in the back saying, "Fuck Heel Wearing People."

Kenshin just laughed as she got dressed and once she was done, the two got out the car and Kenshin went over to her side.

"Sexy." He said with a sly grin and she had to smack his hands away as she tied her top arund her nack It was soft to the touch and Kenshin pulled it up a little bit higher once she let out a whine about her chest. The Halter Top was Dark blue with light blue glitter that were designed as stars and were made to look as if they were falling. The top stopped just above her belly button. There also was a short-sleeved top and Kenshin unbuttuned it and let her put it on.

"I love this skirt. I just wanna tear it off… GRRRRR."

Her skirt was a mini and it was a matching color to her top so she looked perfect. Kaoru put on some socks that Kenshin passed to her and then he took their clothes and threw them in the trunk. She slipped on the Dark-blue/light blue k-swiss and she tied them so that the bow was pretty and girlish. She smiled at Kenshin and as they got back in the car, she took off her earrings and went into his glove compartment.

"You hide things in here?" she nodded as she grabbed all new things. Once he started to drive off Kaoru asked if he had a rubber band.

"No, but I have a clip."

"… well pass it over dumbass."

"… blow me."

"Gasp! Kenshin! I'm mad you really would say that to me! I don't do those things!"

"... how do I know that?" Kaoru gave him a deadly glare.

"I bet if you keep saying it something bad will happen."

"... how do I know that?"

Kenshin smiled at Kaoru's glare and once they arrived at their destination, Kaoru's eyes lit up immediately at the sign.

"You got tickets to this concert! They were sold out when I went to even try! And that was on the first fuckin' day!"

"I know the guys who are in one of the bands and they hooked me up real nicely." Kaoru smiled at Kenshin as they went inside and from there into the area where the concert was being held at. They were up in the front and Kenshin watched as Kaoru let out a squeal and jumped excitedly.

"You love these bands, huh?"

"Are you fucking kidding me! These are my favorite! Fallout Boy, Panic! At the Disco, My American Heart, TOKYO ROSE, I love these bands to death and I have all their CDs."

"Well, duh. If I didn't see all the CDs, I wouldn've never thought to buy these. You better thank them."

"Thank you CDs from the CD Store!" they both laughed as it got ready to start and once the lights dimmed down, Kaoru held onto Kenshin's hand and he looked over to her and smiled.

"Get ready to have fun. I asked the guy from Fallout Boy how these turn out… and you're totally gonna knock somebody the fuck out."

"Sweet."

Kaoru panted and she leaned back in Kenshin's arms as they had finished the concert and went to the after-party for one of the starting bands. They swayed to the beat that was playing and as Kenshin held her around her waist gently, she smiled softly at the girls who were jealous of her.

"They're such haters." Kenshin mumbled and then he kissed her cheek before he let go and took her hand.

"We're out of here. This party is getting nowhere." They two moved through and they left the party before they went out the club and to Kenshin's car. Kenshin drove them towards the woods area and then he parked up before he got out the car and took her out from her side.

"This is gonna be fun." Kenshin tied a blindfold over her eyes before he picked her up and he took off running. Kaoru let out a squeal as he held her securely and jumped over a twig.

"Where am I going! Kenshin, put my ass down this instant! I'm not having fun!" Kenshin just laughed as he started moving upward. Once he reached his destination he let her down and he pulled her skirt. Kaoru slapped at his hands, but he moved away from her once he saw it coming, he stood behind her.

"Are you ready?"

"Yup."

"Are you sure you're ready?"

"Yes, Kenshin. I'm sure I'm ready."

"… Are you positive you're ready?"

"Take this shit off my goddamn eyes!" Kenshin laughed before he counted to three and he pulled the blindfold off. Kaoru opened her eyes and a gasp escaped her lips as she saw the whole city before her in small blinking lights. She saw the whole town that they were currently in and she was amazed at how small it had gotten once they were up so high.

"Wow, Kenshin! This is awesome! Thank you so much, thank you so much!" she put her arms around him and he laughed softly as she hugged him and bounced softly in his arms. She let go before Kenshin led her over to two rocks and let her sit down on the flattest one. As he sat down on the rounded one, he shifted until he got comfortable.

The two watched what was going on before them for a few moments before Kaoru spoke with a soft smile gracing her lips as she kept watching the scene before her.

"Tell me something, Kenshin… When I'm gone, how will you feel?" Kenshin looked over at her as she kept watching and waiting for an answer.

"What brought that question to your mind?"

"Watashi ha mina... anata ni ta ni tazune ta.(I asked everybody else… but you)." Kenshin nodded softly before he thought about the word to describe it.

"…Arehate ta."

"Desolate… why that word?"

"Because Desolatemeans Dreary, Barren; lifeless." She turned her head to look at him before he took her hands in his and he looked at her directly in her eyes.

"You still don't seem to understand what you mean to me, don't you?" Kaoru shrugged her shoulders before Kenshin put his hand on her cheek and he gave her a soft smile.

"Watashi no kazoku ga yori watashi ni ooku wo imi suru. Wubete joucho watashi ga subete no mawari de kaiteN suru node watashi ga kaNjiru houhou. (You mean more to me than my family does. Everything you do affects the way I feel because you revolve around everything I do.) " Kaoru gave a soft smile to his own and then he pressed a kiss to her lips.

"Watashi no raito, watashi no tsuyo sa, watashi no kaNjou, watashi no fukuri de aru.( You are my light, my strength, my emotions, my well being.) "

"You're the same for me." Kaoru said softly and then she rested her forehead against his before Kenshin got up and he grew a huge smile on his face.

"I'm going to let everybody know what woman I love the most. And that woman is you." Kaoru gasped and then said, 'no!' but he ignored her and he towards the edge. He stopped a few feet away and then he put his hands over his mouth.

"I love this woman! I, Kenshin Himura, love Kaoru Kamiya with all my heart and soul! This woman is my life and I love everything about her! Nobody's going to tell me I can't love her either because we're soulmates for life; you hear me world! Nobody!"

Kenshin kept going until Kaoru went over to him and she grabed him around the waist with a laugh. She pressed her lips to his to hush him up and he laughed with her as he held her and felt truly happy. Kaoru rested her head against his as they looked out over the edge.

"I'm going to miss doing everything with you." Kaoru said after a few seconds of silence. Kenshin agreed with her as he held her close to him and leaned his head down so that he could press a kiss to her lips. Kaoru's eyes fell shut as their lips moved against one another's slowly. It was a sweet kiss filled with romance and as their lips let go of each other's, Kaoru gave him a smile.

He pressed his forehead to hers and as he smiled down at her, Kaoru felt herself want to cry.

"Saken de ha ike nai… Sore ha watashi tachi no aida ni shide buN naku aru koto wo okonatte iru.(Don't cry... It's going to be alright between us.)"

"… But I want to take you with me." She put her face into his chest and he removed the clip from her hair before he pressed a kiss on top of her head and he ran his fingers through her black locks as some tears came up into his eyes as well. It was hard for him to tell her that she had to go.

"I want to go with you as well… but then it won't make any sense because you won't be able to live freely. I have to stay behind so nobody thinks that we've run off together and we've left our families. You have to do this for yourself and you have to do it so that everybody knows that you're a smart independent girl who knows what is best for her."

"…Watashi no tame ni mottomo yoi nani ga watashi to kuru koto de aru(What's best for me is that you come with me)." She said softly and as she wiped her eyes with her hand, she looked out at the stars that were twinkling above.

"You make me happy."

"And you make me happy as well, Kaoru. I wish I could just run away with you. If it was up to me, I would've been taken you off your feet and into a world of happiness and no sorrows involved."

"Why can't we just go and make that life for ourselves?"

"... sekai ha souiu kaze ni no ai hataraka se nai.(… The world doesn't work that way, love.)"

Kaoru let out a whimper and Kenshin pulled her closer as she did the same to him. He pressed a kiss to her head again and as he looked up at the sky, he let out a shaky breath.

"I promise that when you leave, we'll talk on the computer everday for hours on end. We'll e-mail each other every chance we get. I'll send you things and you'll send me back things that we've both seen and gotten for each other. We will never fade apart during the amount of time that you're gone."

"… Promise me something."

"Anything."

"… Watashi ga saru toki kesshite dare demo watashi wo aishi nai to watashi ni yakusoku shi nasai… Watashi ha anata oyobi shi ka itoshi nakaro u to omotte iru... watashi ni sore wo yakusoku shi te mo ii ka. (... Promise me that when I leave, you will never love anybody else but me. I'm going to love you and you only... Can you promise me that?)"

"I can promise that, and I swear to god above that I will never love anything or anybody like how I love you. You are my everything and the only thing that I want, okay? Don't ever think otherwise."

As Kenshin pressed a soft kiss to her lips, he wiped her tears away and he rested his forehead against hers as she smiled softly. The two shared a soft laugh at how they were acting, but deep inside they were satisfied that they had spoken and made sure that they knew how each other felt.

"… You wanna go do some physical action?" Kaoru arched her eyebrow and looked up at Kenshin as he had a sly grin.

"My car's waiting... and we're already here… so let's get to it!"

"Whoa!"

THE DAY

"…. Fuck."

Kaoru looked around frantically for her bag as they ran about Kenshin's house and were prepared to leave. They kept moving back and forth and as Kenshin was giving them some snacks to fly with, Josue held the sleeping Kamiya boy on his shoulder as he walked down to the car.

Kaoru sighed in relief as she found the bag and then she ran down the steps with Kenshin right behind her holding his shirt in his hand. He threw it on and then Netalia went to Kaoru and she pulled her into a hug as they got ready to leave. Kaoru held her closely and she sighed softly as they let go.

"I'm gonna miss you, girl. You better write to us, you hear me?"

"I promise I will. I have everybody's numbers and e-mails, so I'll keep in touch everyday I get." Kaoru then saw Kenshin's father come out.

"I'm gonna miss you father-in-law!" she ran over to him and she jumped into his arms before he spun her around and hugged her close to him. Kenshin arched his eyebrow with a smile as she squealed happily and kissed his cheek.

"You keep Kenshin happy for me, okay? I don't want him to be sad while I'm gone."

"Will do, my dear daughter-in-law." The two laughed before she hugged Soujiro close and she whispered some words in his ear as he nodded and whispered back.

"Deal." She said and she let go before she saw Tai come out with a few gifts that were in a small suitcase. He walked over to Kaoru before he gave her a soft smile and blinked, his light green eyes shining and radiating.

"I'm going to miss you, miss thang. Nobody around here is going to be able to fill that gap that you're going to leave once you fly off in that plane… Keep yourself safe, okay?" Kaoru nodded and as he pulled her into a hug, she smiled and hugged him back.

"Thank you for helping with those e-mails and all the other stuff that happened with the law. Without you, I might still be in jail right now. I owe you a million."

"Just stay alive and I'll be happy, okay?" she nodded as she kissed his cheek and as they left the house, Kenshin shut the door and they went down into the car. Tommy and Josue sat in the front seat as the two got in the back and shut the door.

"Get ready. There might be trouble." The two nodded and as Josue reversed out, he drove off. Kaoru shifted as she rested her head on Kenshin's shoulder and shut her eyes for a moment.

"You alright?"

"Yeah… I'm just nervous they might find out at the last moment."

"Josue! Josue go a different route! Somebody snitched on the plan and Kaoru's father and the other older ones are coming after us. I have a decoy in my car, but I can't hold them off for that long. You have to take the longer route and kick it into overdrive."

"Gotcha, Aoshi. Who snitched?"

"Don't know. But when we find out, we're gonna have a long DEEP talk with them. I gotta go. Misao, tie you hair like Kaoru and sit on those books! You're so damn short."

Kaoru giggled and then they saw another car coming up towards them. Josue smirked and he pulled over before he got out the car. Kaoru saw Michael's face and she sighed before they got out the car and moved Yahiko and the bags they were taking on the flight with them. They moved quickly and as Kenshin took the wheel, Kaoru sat in the drivers' side and she hugged the two brothers from the window.

"We're driving next to you, but we're going to split off because Aoshi's on the shortcut. Take care of yourself, Taran Princess." Kaoru nodded as Michael shut the trunk and jumped into the car. Kenshin sped off with the brothers behind him and as they were approaching the split-offs, Tommy sped up to be on the side and he opened his window.

"We love you, sexy sister!"

"I love you guys too!" Kaoru said happily and they saluted before Josue turned and made a right while Kenshin made a left. Kaoru sighed as she pouted and Kenshin just gave her a soft smile.

"They'll be fine."

"Yeah, but daddy's crazy. I know he has almost everybody out here for us."

"It can't be that bad… can it?"

"ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!"

Kenshin let out a scream of frustration as he spun in a 180 degree circle and he drove down the next highway. Two cars were on his back and as he looked in the mirror, two more were just added. He cursed once more as Kaoru shifted in her seat and looked back.

"Don't show you face!" Kaoru turned back as Kenshin shifted gears and switched lanes.

"We're gonna confuse them to hell." Kenshin muttered to himself and as he sped up and switched lanes once more, he prayed there were no cops around to find him. A smirk covered his lips as he put on some shades and he looked up in the mirror again.

"You buckled up in the back?" Michael nodded and Yahiko never heard anything because there was music blasting in his ears and silencing everybody out. Kaoru shifted and as Kenshin jerked the car to the left, she said, 'whoa!'

"Hold on tight." Kenshin sped up and he went through the lanes so fast that it started to make the cars confused. Once he found the perfect opening, he went onto the grass and he turned the car around so that it was driving on the opposite highway. Kaoru and Michael gasped as he switched lanes with the same speed and then rested in the middle as there was a row of cars behind him blocking him from view.

"Who taught you how to do that?"

"… Myself." He chuckled at her arched eyebrow before she heard Kenshin's walkie-talkie pick up voices.

"This is Tyler. The airport you're going to is the wrong one." Kenshin picked up the walkie talkie from his hip and he put it to his lips.

"Are you serious?" he whined.

"Yup. Tommy got the wrong papers. Somebody's trying to fuck this plan up and they're being smart about it. You guys have to go back and instead of going to the airport exit, keep going straight and get back on the other highway. After that, jump to the first exit and you'll see something that I placed in the ground. Kaoru'll notice it. I gotta run. The cops are on my ass."

"You're on foot! For what!"

"Somebody crashed into Aoshi and we… well we just beat em up and threw them on the road. The cops saw us and now we're all running. Misao's on Aoshi's back because she's slowing us down. Short thing… Fuck. I'll contact you later."

"Be safe." Kenshin put it back down before Kaoru ran her fingers through her hair and pulled it behind her ear.

"I swear to god if they don't take my lisence for this, the government will have my head for hacking and erasing all the tickets I'm about to get."

Kenshin braked his car and he spun it around before he went onto the other highway again.

"KENSHIN TURN!" Kaoru and Michael screamed and he cursed loudly as he braked and reversed away from the car and then sped up again from the other car. They screamed out as a truck was coming and Kenshin sped towards the exit and he exited the highway as fast as he could. Their hearts were racing as he stopped for a few seconds and watched the cars chasing them going towards the airport.

"We showed them, huh?" Kaoru and Michael just started at Kenshin, both their eyes looking at him in disbelief and horror.

"What?"

"Just drive."

Aoshi cursed as he panted and they hid in a group of bushes. He was tall, so he had to lay down flat with Tyler as Misao just crouched low. They caught their breath as the police cars and the officers rushed past them. Once they thought the coast was clar, they got up and they sighed in relief.

"Yeah! We showed those cops, huh babe!"

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!

"They're over there!"

"… Ooops?" Misao laughed nervously as they glared at her. Aoshi crouched down as she jumped on his back and the two took off once more. Misao was glad she didn't have to run and then Aoshi told her to jump off.

"I'm getting tired quicker. Just use that so-called Ninja Speed of yours and keep up." Misao glared and nodded as they turned the corner and they jumped over the baricades that were there. Misao ducked under it and as they sped up, she panted and went just as fast as them. The cops kept curing and barking for them to stop, but they refused to as they ran through and alleyway and up the fence and over.

"Aoshi! Tyler! This way!" They turned to see Josue's car stop and they ran as fast as they could towards it. They jumped in the open roof and Aoshi caught Misao as they sped off. Misao laughed and she gave the finger to them as they drove off. Josue closed the roof as they escaped quickly and then Misao shifted in her seat and got off of Aoshi.

"Where's Kaoru and the others?"

"They're heading to the right airport. We'll meet them over there."

Kenshin was pushing a hundred and Kaoru was scared that he would kill them all. He was calm as he whistled to himself and sang to the song on the radio as he switched lanes. Yahiko laughed at the enjoyment of his sister's fears and Michael couldn't help but laugh as well as she let out a squeal at each jerk of the car.

"Kaoru, love, you must relax."

"How can I relax when I'm scared I'm going to die!" Kenshin burst out laughing and he shut his eyes and let go of the wheel. Kaoru and Michael screamed out and Kaoru grabbed the wheel and steered them back the right way. Kenshin said, 'oops' and he took the wheel again before he smirked at her.

"See? If I let go, you'll be able to take over."

"You better just stop fucking around and drive."

"What's Fucking, Kao-kao?"

"…. Aw shit."

Josue had abandoned his car and he caught up with Tai in another car so they wouldn't be suspected for anything. The Hummer was moving fast and as it approaced the airport, they cheered for half of the job was done. Genia clapped her hands happily as they parked the car and got out. They went inside before they went to look at the time.

"Fifty minutes before the flight leaves." Aoshi sat down with a sprite in his hand and Misao collapsed in the chair next to him. Josue and Tommy were putting Yahiko's luggage out and they were sending it towards the plane and making sure each one had his names on it.

"I hope that Kaoru makes it." She said as she leaned her head back. Aoshi nodded and the others agreed before they just watched the time. Each of them was hoping for them to make it and they were just waiting to see the outcome.

"AAAAAAAAAA!"

They screamed as loud as they could as the car was launced into the air. Yahiko was scared as hell as Kenshin counted down from ten. The car-surprisingly-landed on its wheels and as Kenshin sped off again, Michael calmed Yahiko down since he had begun to cry.

"Do you think you're god or something! What the fuck was that, Kenshin!"

"Did you want to go into the ocean or what!" Kenshin barked back and Kaoru glared at him before he smirked and puckered his lips at her. She rolled her eyes as he drove up to the airport and just stopped the car anywhere. They got out and grabbed their things before they ran to the entrance.

Aoshi looked up and then he said, 'thank you jesus.' As he saw them come into view. They walked through the metal detectors and did the process before they rushed over. Aoshi hugged his sister and then he kissed her forehead before he made sure she was alright.

"I'm fine. How much more time before we have to get on board?"

"You have twenty minutes." He answered and then Kaoru just sighed before she looked at them all. She gave a smile before she put her hands together and bowed.

"Thank you guys so much for making sure that we got here safely. You guys are the greatest friends any girl could have and I love you all so much." They smiled at her and then Kaoru and Michael began to hug each of them.

Kenshin sighed as he sat down and he caught his breath. The whole time he had been breathing short and making sure that they weren't followed. Kaoru hugged Aoshi and Genia the longest as she thanked them and they spoke loving words in Japanese.

"You take care of yourself in Italy. I hear it's party season over there." Kaoru gasped and then she began to cheer and dance as they all laughed and shook their heads.

"Ten minutes before Flight 4588 departs." Kenshin got up and he led them to the gateway before he set Yahiko down.

"I'm gonna see you later, kiddo. You be good for you Uncle Kenshin now, kay?" Yahiko nodded sadly and Kenshin pulled him into a hug as Yahiko put his small arounds around Kenshin's neck.

"I love you Uncle Kenny."

"I love you too, Yahiko." Kenshin said with a smile and then Kenshin stood up as Michael picked up his youngest cousin. He and Kenshin shook hands but it soon turned into a hug as the two said some words that nobody else would understand. Michael let go and Kenshin sighed.

"Take care of yourself, Michael."

"Only if you take care of yourself."

Kenshin laughed and nodded before Michael started to walk farther inside with Yahiko on his hip. That left Kaoru and Kenshin alone. Kaoru bit her lip as tears instantly came and she let out a breath before she spoke.

"This is so hard….I want to take you with me."

"It's going to be alright, Kao. I love you and as long as you know that, then we'll be fine because my love will travel with you wherever you go. Nobody can change what's gone on between us. Nobody."

Kaoru smiled and nodded as she wiped at her eyes.

"This is so weird, but my mother always told me that when I got older that things would change…. But the most important thing she said was "It's always that one person who changes your life and opens your heart to love." I never thought that would happen for me… but it has.

"I love you so much, Kenshin, that I wouldn't go on this flight just to be with you forever."

"I would do the same if I was in your place. But you have to go for you and me I promise that once you get back, we'll be together every waking minute that we can… we'll make this work, Kaoru. I promise."

Kaoru went into his embrace and Kenshin sighed as he held her close to him and felt her body for the last time. Kaoru smiled softly in his embrace and as she leaned up to give him a kiss, he was already there waiting for her.

'My last kiss…'

Kenshin let go of her and Kaoru pressed her lips to his again before she let go.

"I'll call you as soon as I get in. I promise." Kenshin nodded and Michael called Kaoru to hurry up. Kaoru nodded and as she put her hand over her mouth, more tears fell and Kenshin took off his necklace. Kaoru then removed hers and the two switched.

"This was my mother's, so don't break it."

"I was gonna say the same thing." Kenshin smiled and then she put it around her neck before she blew kisses to him and turned around. She jogged to catch up to them and once she did, she turned around and she screamed out.

"I love you, Kenshin Himura, and nobody else but you!"

"I love you the same and nothing will change that, Kaoru! Don't you ever forget!"

Kaoru vanished from sight and Kenshin moved away from the entrance before he went back to where the others were standing by the window. He put his hands in his pockets and he just looked to the window as they others got ready to leave.

"We have to leave, Kenshin. If we stay here, then we're screwed. The doors are shut for the plane and they'll take off in a few minutes."

"But… I wanna stay and watch-"

"There is no time!" Aoshi told him with some base in his voice and then Josue took his arm as they led him out the airport and towards the large Hummer.

"Jump in." Kenshin got in the back and sat by the window and as Josue took the car keys and started the car up, Kenshin put his hand up and turned it into a fist as he put it on his mouth and he shifted, gold eyes staring out the window angrily.

As they drove off, everybody was sighing in relief that they had made it, and everybody was praising everybody for doing a good job.

"No, the real thing that saved us is Kenshin's driving skills. Ask Kaoru later and she'll tell you that Kenshin spun that car as if it was his body."

"You heart hear that Kenshin?... Kenshin, you awake?"

"I don't wanna talk." They heard his voice and they just decided to drop it and look out the window.

"There goes the plane!" Kenshin's eyes turned and he saw the plane moving to the end of the runway and up into the sky. As it went up, a soft smile graced his lips as he was happy to see her go off safely.

"See it, Kenshin? She's going to be alright."

Kenshin wasn't listening and as his eyes grew sad, Tommy turned around since he was sitting directly in front of him. He then frowned as he saw Kenshin quiet, eyes gold, and his fist covering his mouth as he was obviously fighting inside of himself to keep strong and not just bawl out like a baby.

Kenshin finally lost his control to fight the tears back and Netalia turned around as Tommy tapped her to look. When she turned around, her heart instantly began to hurt for her baby brother. Kenshin was angry, but all he could do is shed it out through tears. One tear came after another and as Kenshin wiped his tears, he refused to cover his face.

"Kenshin…"

Kenshin put his hands over his face as stopped refusing and he leaned his head back and he let out a soft scream. That caught everybody's attention as he removed his hands and he just stared at the ceiling, tears streaming down his face as he breathed deep and he tried to control himself.

"Kenshin, you alright back there?" Josue asked and Kenshin just said, 'yeah' before he asked them to pull over. They obeyed his request and Kenshin got out the car. As he shut the door, he saluted to them and he started to walk.

"Where are you going!" Tommy barked, but Keneshin just ignored him as he was walking down the highway. He leaned his head back to the sky and he spoke one last sentence as his tears were falling like rain and his heart was heavy with the realization that she was really gone.

It's always that one person that makes your heart rise from the grave that it's dug itself into and help you become the man that you wanted to be…


I miss you already.

R.S.: I'm crying right now. I know this seems silly and this seems dumb, but I'm actually happy.

This is the first important story that I've ever finished. I've kept it together, taken breaks, dissapointed people… but I really finished.

With all the things that have happened, with everything that's going through my head, having depressing thoughts and all other things that make you down yourself… I've still managed to finish.

Thank you to everybody who has reviewed my story and given me the will to go on and keep writing. You guys who were reviewing me work had so much to tell me and I could just relate to you guys as you all helped me with my depression and my issues. I love everybody who stayed with me and gave advice that lifted my heart up. It's been the best story ever with you guys and I hope that you'll be there for more of my work.

There will be a sequel to this. Don't you guys worry about that. The sequel is going to be something out of this world and it's going to be a challenge to myself as I'm going to use EVERYTHING that I've learned in my journey through and other sites that have helped me and given me helpful tips.

You guys wait for the Sequel! It should be starting up by May or something. After I get myself together. I just figured out that I have a small eating disorder problem and I have asthma too, so I'm trying to balance the fact that I need help with it.

Once again, thank you guys and this first part of the story has come to a close. I love everybody out there and may god, allah, or whoever you worship bring you good things.

Love always and forever more,

Rampaging Sorrow
