Aurora Whisperwind: Hi, again people! Thanks to the reviewers who were sooooo sweet! Now I'm sorry if you don't like the choice of the characters, but I tried to do the best I could. Once again, comments and flames are welcome. Thank you!

Disclaimer: I do not own Rurouni Kenshin or the fairy tale characters (blah, blah, blah)

There! Now I can write in peace.


"I'm free! Free at last! Free to make my own choices! Free to go anywhere I want! Free to save the handsome prince Kenshin!"

"Sorry for interrupting your ode to your own liberation, Busu, but where the HECK are we headed off to?"

"Miserable cat! To the dark forest of course! "

"And do you know the way?"

"How am I supposed to know? I thought you knew!"

"How would I know, woman? I'm only a cat!"

"How would I know?"

"Great! Now we're right in the middle of nowhere, with no idea where we're going and on top of that, with no food or money! And this is all entirely your fault!"

"My fault! Why you lousy, miserable…."

Thump

Yahiko-in-boots ducked to avoid the rock thrown at him by the glowering Kaoru and opened his mouth to insult her again but his words were cut off by a croak.

"Hey, you're supposed to throw a ball, not a rock you MORON!"-came a shout from behind the bush and out jumped a frog. "Anyway…" The frog stopped as it stared at a messy young girl and a cat in boots.

"Where's the prince?"

"What prince?"

"Well, you know the story, a prince kisses the frog and it turns into a princess, they marry and live happily ever after…"

"I've heard of it, alright. Only it was a prince who was the frog and there was no kissing!"-Yahiko-in-boots said.

"Foolish cat, but what would you know…So anyway where is the prince?"

"How would we know?"

"Well….you were talking about one…"

"You were spying on us?"

"Well…."-she said, twiddling her green thumbs "I was hoping…"

"But this prince is mine!"-said Kaoru.

"Alright, alright you can have this prince Kenshin guy but he must have a brother or some one whom I can have"

"Well I suppose so…"

"Great! I'll join you then! I'm going to turn human! Woo Hoo!"

'Yeah, right which abysmal idiot will kiss a frog?'-Thought Yahiko-in-boots.

"So, anyway, what's your name?"

"Oh, so sorry I forgot. My name is Misao Toadstool!."

She hopped off. Kaoru and Yahiko-in-boots stared at each other in disbelief and set off on a run behind the frog.

"So, what you say is…"-Began Kaoru, "You were cursed by someone?"

"Cursed! No, who the heck can curse me the indestructible Misao?"

Kaoru fell over (Anime style)

"Then how will you turn human? You need to be a human before, for anything to happen"

"Rubbish! I'll turn human, you'll see. So where are you off to?"

"To the dark forest"-Kaoru said drowning out the 'Hah!' of Yahiko-in-boots.

"Great! So where is that place?"

"Oh great! Now I'm stuck with two frogs with no sense of direction!"

Twin cries of-"You little twirp! I'm gonna kill you…"-filled the air as a furious fight erupted. Clods of dust flew. Yep, this was gonna be one looong journey


Al right, I know Misao can't be a frog but she seemed sooo right for the part!

Anyways tell me what you think. Read and review please!
