Kenshin: It is February.
Lina: I know! sorry, I've been busy with school and work that I've been so tired, and I had a cold, but that should be no excuse.
Kenshin: Oro!
Lina: Here it is... although I had a bit of trouble on it.
The Ultra Long Kenshin Fic Chapter 11: Flashback
Kenshin was awake one night, feeling like he had insomnia. He rubbed his tired eyes, which had not seen sleep in awhile. For some reason he kept having nightmares. Nightmares of the past. There has been no one for him to fight in a long time, and he hasn't been all that depressed. He had Kaoru now, he should be happy. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Oro?" He whispered. Then he got up and opened it. Kaoru almost fell on to him, her face was red.
"Kenshiiiiin! Let me stay with you!" She cried. Kenshin held her up by her shoulders.
"Shh, the others are sleeping. What's wrong?" He asked. He had never seen her drunk before except the time where she had thought he had given her an engagement ring, and at parties of course. Kaoru didn't say anything for a minute, she was just swaying back and forth, her hair falling out of the hair combs that Kenshin had given to her. She suddenly started to cry and hugged him.
"Do you still love me?" She asked. He didn't know what to say to this for awhile. Then he smiled, thinking about Tomoe, who had asked that same question before she had passed away.
"Yes, I do still love you," he said, holding on to her tightly. Kaoru's eyes widened and she stopped crying, realizing how sad Kenshin was. Images of the past came to him.
"Kenshin... are you going to get more firewood?" Tomoe asked, shivering from the cold. He smiled at her slightly and nodded, taking his sword out with him as he left the little house that he and Tomoe had lived in for the past two months. It was colder than it had ever been in Edo, Kenshin had to put a shawl type cloak around his shoulders in order to keep warm. They did not have much, since he has not had any assassination jobs for awhile. It has been rather peaceful. This was not to Kenshin's liking for some odd reason. He thought he had had enough of killing, that he did not want to do it anymore, but the thoughts of blood came to his mind, he was almost craving it. He left the house to find more wood, which was not easy, even though there was a lot of woods around him.
"Kenshin?" Kaoru asked, Kenshin was crying. He could not stop. Kaoru hugged him, suddenly sober. Tears fell down his face, as he looked at his hands, covered in blood.
Lina: Phew... that gave me shivers. hehe. it wasn't that difficult to write I guess... just didn't know what to write. So it was a filler chapter I guess. listens to Halo and skips along
Esano: I'll be in it next time! Doing evil things!
Lina: Yes, much evilness going on. Much like Peacemaker. There might be camio appearances from that show as well, since it ties in with the Shinsengumi (hehe, funny word). well, gtg. Ja ne! -Shadow Lies Within
