Chapter 6
The truth and forgiveness
The girl that told Kenshin where Miss. Kaoru was in town when she was attacked by Ryan. She was trying to dodge and not fight but she kept on getting hit. She had to use her sword but she wanted to wait a little bit. She said "Why are you going after me?" He said "Because you messed up my life." She said "How did I mess your life up?" He said "You took Jasmine away from me." She said, "That is a stupid reason to try to kill me."
Kenshin went into town with Kaoru then he saw every one going away from a spot. Then he saw that girl that helped him before he saw that I was hurt and fighting this guy. Then he was going straight for my stomach when I moved. He thought he got me but he only got her cape. He said "Where did you go." She said "Over here." He turned around and saw that I was behind him. Kenshin couldn't believe his eyes when he saw her he couldn't believe she was his sister or he thought she was.
"Keda!" He yelled. She looked at him with a surprised look she can't believe he recognized her. Ryan said "So that is your friend or maybe family." She said "Leave him out of this he is not in this." Ryan said "Too bad now he is." He went right to him he didn't have his sword with him.(He beat all those guys with his fists ans sticks to save Kaoru) Keda got in front of him and he struck her in the stomach the blade went all the through her stomach. Kenshin said "Keda!" Ryan said "So he does mean a lot to you for you to be a shield for him."
Ryan said "I will be going now but I will be back to kill you so watch out." Then he was gone and then Keda turned around and faced Kenshin and backed away and Jasmine caught up to Keda. Jasmine said "Are you alright Keda." Keda said "Yeah I'm fine, don't worry about it." Jasmine said "You always say you're alright when your not we need to get these wounds taken care of." Keda said "Fine if you are that worried."
She looked up at Kenshin when he was still surprised about it. Jasmine said "Why did you risk your life to protect him." Keda said "Because... because he is my brother." Jasmine said "WHAT YOU TOLD HIM!" Keda said "He is my brother but I left him along time ago about two in half years ago Agh." Jasmine said "Keda we got to go get these wounds taken care of." Kenshin said "You guys can come to my dojo and you can take care of her there." Kenshin looked a little bit mad to hear that she left him. Jasmine said "No thank you we have a place where we can go treat her wounds, and besides I think it would be kind of weird of you to together when you just found out." Keda said "She's right we better get going now." Then they left without saying another word.
When they got to where they were staying Jasmine looked like she had a lot of questions. "Jasmine I know that you have a lot of questions. So go ahead and ask them I will answer the best I can." "Ok. One: How did he find out in the first place?" Jasmine said. "Ryan hit my cape and took it off and Kenshin recognized me and yelled my name. then Ryan thought that he was important to me and attacked him. Then I had to save him so I went to be a shield for him." Keda said. "Do you think that you should meet him again?" Jasmine asked. "I have to. He will want to know why I left and everything." Keda said. "We will go into twon tomorrow and see if he is there." Jasmine said. "Sure." Keda said. Jasmine was washing and bandaging Keda's wounds while they were talking. Keda then went to sleep because she was exhausted from the events that happened today.
The next morning Keda woke up early and got up. "You know you really shouldn't get up yet you are still injured." Jasmine said. "I want to go into town because it is noon." Keda replied. "Ok. Come on." Jasmine said. They went into town to see if her brother would be there. "We needed to get some supplies anyways." Keda said. "Yeah I know, but you are still injured." Jasmine said. "This is not the worst that I have been hurt." Keda pointed out. Then they saw him and the girl walking down the streets. "Do you want to go up to him?" Jasmine asked. "No, I want to see if he will notice me yet." Keda replied.
"Kenshin look isn't that the girl that we saw yesterday?" Kaoru asked. "Yes that is lets go over there I want some answers." Kensin replied. They went over there and stopped infront of them. "Hello." Kaoru said "Hey." Jasmine said. Kenshin and Keda just stared at each other for along time. "I think that we should go to our home." Jasmine said. "Yeah." Kaoru said. Then they went back to Jasmine's and keda's house. "I think that we will just leave you two alone we will go shopping and don't worry I will protect Miss. Kaoru with my life." Jasmine said. "Yeah lets go." Kaoru said. Then they left to go shopping and left Kenshin and Keda alone.
"Why did you leave?" Kenshin said angrily. sigh "Because I saw you at the imperialists base." Keda said. "You should have been there." Kenshin said. " I just wanted to make sure that you were ok." Keda said. "It. Was. Not. Your. Business. To. Be. There!" Kenshin said raising his voice a little. "None. Of. My. Business. You. Are. My. BROTHER!" Keda said through gritted teeth. "YOU HAD NO RIGHT TO BE DOWN THERE!" Kenshin said. "NO RIGHT I AM YOU SISTER I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU." Keda said. "I DIDN'T' WANT YOU THERE." Kenshin said. "You didn't want me there. Why?" Keda said. "Because you could get hurt and get in my way." Kenshin said. "I CAN PROTECT MYSELF THANK YOU VERY MUCH. You don't know how much that hurt for you to say that I would get in the way." Keda said. "I am sorry, but you don' t know what I have been through in life. You probably had it easy traveling." Kenshin said. "Easy hah." Keda said. "If it wasn't then tell me." Kenshin said frustrated. "Fine here. No matter where I went I would get attacked no matter what. I have so many scars you can't imagine. I am called a freak because of the fire incident. People tried to take me a experiment on my they did and I escaped. That is how Jasmine and I meet. They did horrible things to me they gave me tones of mental and physical scars. Then that guy you saw wants to kill me because he thinks that I stole Jasmine away. His name was Ryan now he knows that you mean a lot to me and will try to kill you. But I won't let that happen." Keda said.
Kenshin felt really guilty of have said those things to her. He went up to her and hugged her tight he never wanted to let go. "I am sorry about all the things I did and said." Kenshin said. She hugged him back just as tight and said, "It ok and I am sorry as well I should have never been there in the first place." "No you just wanted to see if I was ok." Kenshin said. "Well it is in the past now we can move on." Keda said. "Yeah." Kenshin sad. Then Keda laid her head on Kenshin's lap and feel asleep. He was leaning up against a wall and whispered, "I love you Keda my sister." Keda said, "I love you to my brother." And then they both went to sleep. That is how Jasmine and Kaoru found them and then they went and laid down to go to sleep.
