Aurora Whisperwind: Wow! Five reviews!(Dancing madly around) I never thought anybody would read this thing: )

Anyways, thank you to all the reviewers who took the time for this. I really appreciate it! So, on with the fic! (Sano's making his appearance here)

Disclaimer: I do not own Rurouni Kenshin or the fairy tale characters. (WHY do I have to say this? HOW can they possibly expect me to make money outta this? )


The battle for Yahiko's head was still going on until-

"Hey, you lot down there!"

Kaoru and Misao immediately stopped to look up while Yahiko-in-boots made his escape out of their combined grips. A kinda weird looking guy in leprechaunish clothes towered over them.

"What are you guys staring at? Haven't you ever seen a man before?"-More staring continued, this time with raised eyebrows. A man, huh, hmm…. Yahiko was the first to speak up-"Who are you?"

"That's exactly what I came over here to ask you guys about!"-he said, with a stupid grin on his face. "What the hell do you mean by that? How can you not know who you are?"-asked Kaoru who in the meantime had grabbed Yahiko again and was slowly squeezing the life outta him.

"Oh I know who I am alright! I'm Sano! But I don't know my name"

"Isn't Sano your name?"

"Nope, it's not my full name atleast, actually I was on my way to the All-Knowing-Seer if he knew anything when I saw you lot"-"So, do ya have anything to eat? I'm starved!"

"The All-Knowing-Seer? Who's that?"-asked Misao while Yahiko and Kaoru started another scuffle.

"Oh he's this guy who knows everything"-"So, anything to eat, eh?"

"That's obvious! Hey, Kaoru, maybe he'll know how to get to the dark forest"-Kaoru let go of Yahiko-in-boots who ran off to a good distance now, and thought for a while. "Yeah, why not? Hey Sano, can we join you?"

"Sure! So you have anything to eat?"-All three of them looked at each other. It was beginning to get dark. "I didn't need to bring any food. There are loads of flies here"-pointed out Misao who promptly unrolled her tongue and started catching them. "Yuck that's disgusting Misao! Go eat somewhere else!"-"Alright!"-she said and started hopping happily around. "Yeah, now her odds of getting kissed by a prince have gone up to about a one to a million"-quipped Yahiko who sat down and started repairing his feather which had gotten badly injured during the battle. "My poor feather, it's ruined! This is all your fault, stupid Busu!"

"MY FAULT! Why you little-"

"Ahem, something to eat please?"-said Sano and released Yahiko out of Kaoru's deathly grip. Yahiko promptly returned to his beloved hat.

"I guess I'll cook something for us, then. Get some firewood, Yahiko"-demanded Kaoru. Yahiko stopped mourning his battered feather to look up at her with indescribable horror in his eyes. He tried to say something, choked, spluttered, and swooned. "What's with him?"-Questioned Sano while Kaoru started to swell like a bullfrog-"Is he good to eat?"-he asked and sniffed at Yahiko-in-boots. "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! What, are you nuts? Cat killer! Help, someone! There's a psycho on the loose! He's a raving lunatic! Hel-"his words were cut off by Kaoru who grabbed him and clamped her hand over his mouth and ordered Sano to get the firewood.

An hour later….

Yahiko had recovered from his hysterical fit and Kaoru had finished her, uh, fabulous dinner. "I'll take mine aside to cool,"-said Yahiko and was back minutes later with grass and mud and something else which looked curiously like a worm on his plate. "Are you crazy? Why did you throw the food away? And why are you eating that stuff?"-asked Sano. "Trust me, there's not much difference between Kaoru's cooking and this. Infact, this is probably much better!" Sano shrugged and had a bite-and spat it out. His face went white, then green. "You have any more of that delicious looking grass?"

Finally dinner was finished and everyone lay down to sleep, thinking their own thoughts. Misao dreamed of a handsome prince. Yahiko wondered if this prince Kenshin guy could cook. Sano pondered over his missing name and whether this All-knowing seer could help, while Kaoru thought about the funny looking mounds a little away from their camp which looked suspiciously like her food. Hey, wait a second, that was…………………

Let us draw a curtain of ignominy on the ensuing violence.


So, what do you guys think? Something about this chap is not quite right for me……

Anyways, about this All-knowing-seer, I'm giving you three guesses! Big clue-He's gonna be very irritating, Ha Ha! (Hey that's not a clue, that's……)
