Lina: Hehehehe, this chappie is very very evil, well, not really evil. Hehe.

Esano: Woohoo! More of me being evil.

The Ultra Long Kenshin Fic Chapter 7: Death

Kenshin was now in a fouton in his room. Sweat ran down his pale face. Kaoru was sitting next to him, so was Esano.

"I'm sorry. I just wanted to talk to Kaoru in private for a little while," Esano said. Kenshin smiled.

"It's okay. I know you've been through a lot," Kenshin said. He winced, pain filled his head, almost swallowing him whole. He did not know what this was, maybe the souls of the dead that he had killed were doing this to him, but that did not seem very likely. Kaoru had a bowl of water and a cloth for Kenshin's forehead, since that usually helped. It was not working that well this time. He still had an awful fever. She sighed.

"Why do you have to push yourself so hard?" She asked. Esano left the room, leaving them time alone.

"I'm all right, that I am," Kenshin replied. Kaoru still had a worried look on her face, of course.

"But you always do things that worry me. I might not want to marry you," she said, jokingly. Kenshin laughed a little but then started to cough. "You should get some rest. I'll be back in with some food later."

"Okay," Kenshin stated. Kaoru walked out the door and saw Esano standing in the middle of the square. He had his eyes closed.

"It was not your fault," Kaoru said. Esano opened his eyes and smiled.

"I know. I was just thinking of how it would be if you chose me instead of him," Esano said. Kaoru blushed and walked away. Esano smiled evily. Yahiko came around the corner of the dojo wearing a red kimono and dog ears. Kaoru jumped back a little.

"What are you?" She asked.

"I'm Inuyasha! Part dog, part demon!" Yahiko stated, pulling out a rusty sword. Kaoru burst out laughing. "What? It's a popular legand," he explained. Kaoru was still laughing. Sano also came out.

"What's going on?" He asked, yawning.

"Yahiko..." Kaoru panted. Sano looked at Yahiko's costume and also started laughing.

"This isn't Hallow's Eve, stupid," he said.

"I know, but I wanted to try it on before then, so that I could get different responses. And yes, they were different," Yahiko pouted. Esano poked his head around to see what was going on and saw the "half demon" Yahiko.

"I think it's cool," he stated. Yahiko smiled.

"See, someone appreciates it," Yahiko mumbled.

Lina: hehehe, Yahiko was inuyasha! The costume party eppie will be coming up soon. So u'll just have to wait awhile and see what everyone else is! (And see if Kenshin's all right before then.)

Esano: I know who I'm going to be.

Lina: yes, I do too. Of course. Review pleeeease!
