Chapter 3: A surprise unknown
Kenshin had decided to walk Kaoru home that night. At first she protested saying she could make it on her own, but Kenshin wasn't going to let her. Kaoru finally gave into his stubbornness, and let him walk her home. She sighed with a smile played on her lips as they walked the deserted streets together. The silence was surprisingly comfortable. Kaoru smiled sadly when she reached her house. She then sniffed away the last of her tears, and turned to face Kenshin.
"Well, we're here. I'm really sorry about the...uh...thing earlier. Thanks for helping me. You can leave now. I wouldn't want to keep you any longer." Kaoru said while trying to hide her growing fear. He just looked at her and then smiled.
"It's no problem. Anyway, I should get going. I hope to see you soon. Later." Then he walked off, taking a right into an alley. Kaoru took a deep breath after watching him walk off. She then opened her front door, and stepped inside to be greeted by the putrid smell of alcohol and liquor. She wrinkled her nose, and held it to stop the foul smell from reaching her sense anymore. She turned around, and close the door quietly, so she didn't disturb her father. But forgetting to lock it, she made her way through the hall. Still holding her nose, she started to tiptoe towards the stairs. She was almost there until she breathed in a cloud of cigarette smoke. Her eyes started to water as she held her mouth along with her nose.
"Please no! Don't cough!! Please, please, please, please!! Not here not now!!" Kaoru begged in her mind. But then her lungs burst and a small cough emitted from her burning throat. Kaoru began to shiver. Suddenly, a roar thundered through the whole house. Kaoru's breathing suddenly became ragged as she heard the large thumping of feet, make their way towards her. She turned around to see her father, staggering towards her with an empty liquor bottle in his hands, and a cigarette but hanging from his mouth.
"Soooo...how dis the gase go?..." Asked her very drunk father. Kaoru couldn't find the words to tell him. They were caught in her throat. All she could do was stare at him in utter silence. His hazy gaze became clouded over with drunken anger as a vain throbbed on his forehead.
"I assed youu...hows the ggaammssee wenntzz!!!!!" He roared as he walked up to her, stumbling here and there. She shook her head, trying to tell him she couldn't speak. He became furious! How dare she now answer when he asked her a question. He then raised his empty fist, and rocketed down and smacked her hard on her right cheek. Kaoru was flung from her position because of the strength behind the blow. She hit the floor with a pain surging through her body. She held her cheek as it stung. She knew that this night wouldn't be something to look forward to.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Kenshin had heard everything. Even though he turned into the alley, once she stepped inside and closed the door, he rushed up to it, and pressed an ear to it. He flinched when he heard her cough lightly, and then he started to shiver when he heard the large thumping of feet coming towards the door. He almost thought that the man had sensed him and was coming up to the door to beat him into a pulp. Until he heard him starting to walk straight ahead to where Kenshin was sitting, listening to all of it.
"Soooo...how dis the gamse go?..." Kenshin heard the slurred question of the man. He was most likely asking the girl. When he didn't hear her reply, he practically shouted in his mind, 'what are you doing!!?!!? Answer him before he kills you!!!' but he still didn't hear her say anything. He then heard the man ask the same question, only this time with more anger, and force. He still didn't hear her. His eyes widened when he heard a loud 'smack' and a bashing sound.
'He...he hit her!! That bastard hit his own daughter!!!' Kenshin yelled in his mind. He was seething with anger. But then, he heard the tender voice of the girl speak up.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
"I...we...it was...a really tight g-game and..." Kaoru began as she stuttered with her words. She was so frightened about what her dad was going to do to her that she was almost thinking about lying to him about her teams loss. When she decided to scratch that idea, her fathers voice broke her train of thoughts.
"Yoouu lossedd didn yoouu!!!!" He screamed at her. Kaoru then started to shake in fear as she shook her head frantically.
"Youu worrthhleezz son of a biittcchhhzz!!!" He shouted as he raised his hand that held the empty liquor bottle. Kaoru then closed her eyes tight, waiting for the pain to reach her. But it never did. When she opened her eyes, a figure was standing over her.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Kenshin had heard him scream at her, and didn't take another second to waste. He opened the door, and rushed inside. He saw her father, raising the liquor bottle, and stepped in front of her. For some reason when her father saw him, he stopped.
"Now now sir! What she was trying to say was that she won the championships! And that she was uhh...too excited to speak so it looked like she was refusing to answer you, when she was...just too whelmed up to answer...eh heh heh." Kenshin answered as he tugged at the collar of his jersey. The man eyed him suspiciously. He then turned him angry gaze to Kaoru, who was still crouched on the flour.
"Is whatz hee saayzz truuee Kaoru?..." Asked her father as he stared at the shuttering girl. Kaoru could only nod. He then shifted his cold glare back to Kenshin.
"Andz whoo mighttzz yoouu beee?" Slurred her father. Kenshin then gukped but thought quickly.
"I'm her boyfriend...and...team mate! M-my name is Kenshin Himura..sir." Kenshin said with a nervous smile. Her father then shook his head and then thumped off into the living room. Kenshin then sighed in relief as he lowered his shoulders. He then heard Kaoru gasp behind him. He turned to face her, and then turned to look at what she was looking at. His eyes grew wide when he saw her father, furry and hatred burning in his drunken eyes.
"Yoouu llyyiinn bbazzzttarrddzz!! II juuzz saww the newwz!!! Itt saayzz thaa Kaoru looossed!!" He screeched as he started to charge towards Kenshin and Kaoru. Kenshin then, having quick reflexes, turned around, and grabbed Kaoru. He positioned her bridal style, and prepared for her fathers attack. When he came within three feet of him, Kenshin vanished into thin air. Her father then stared wide eyed at where Kenshin and his daughter once where. He quickly turned around and saw then slip out the door. Her father then grew even more furious then before if possible, and chased them out the door. Once he reached it he saw Kenshin and Kaoru dashing off into the darkness of night.
"I'lll geezz yoouu bbaaccckkkzz Kaoru!!! Yoouu Biittcchhzz!!! I'll ggeeettzz yyouu annndd yyoouuurr ffuunnnkkiinnzz mmaann whhooree!!!" Her father yelled at the top of his lungs, slurring his swears into the night air as they vanished from sight.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The next thing Kaoru new, she was placed on a warm bed in a dark room. She blinked while regaining her composure, and looked around the new area.
"It's ok. You're in safe hands now." She heard a comforting voice behind her. She whipped her head around to have a light suddenly flicker on, and found herself, starring into the eyes of her savior.
"I....thank you." Kaoru whispered out. She didn't know what to say. She was so shocked that he suddenly appeared in front of her that she was almost lost for words. He laughed and shook his head with his hands up bay his face.
"It wasn't anything big. Anyway, I really don't care what your father might say or do. I'm not letting you go back into the hands of that abusive man." Kenshin said as he started to sneer. Kaoru then had a quick change of mood.
"Why did you say that I won the championships? And that I was on your team?!" She asked as she began to fume. Kenshin put his hands up in defense, much like they were before.
"I was only trying to protect you!!" He said as she gave him an angry gaze. She then narrowed her eyes even more.
"And why did you say that you were my boyfriend huh!?" Kaoru asked with a huff. He could have just left it at team mates! But nooo he had to go into a relationship lie!! They always have the downfalls when lying about relationships. Kenshin just let an 'oro' escape his lips as he tried to answer her.
"Uhh...I...um...I didn't want him thinking that I was some kind of rapist! Y'know!! Fathers are quick to judge!" Kenshin said, clearly he was lying. Kaoru just gave him a glare, telling him that she didn't buy it. Kenshin sighed, and then lowered his head in defeat.
"Fine you caught me. I wanted him to think that we were boyfriend and girlfriend so he wouldn't wind if I put some moves on her and stuff like that." Kenshin said all in one breath. Kaoru then crossed her arms.
"I knew that there was another reason behi- HEY WAIT!!! WHAT?!??!" Kaoru asked once his answer finally reached her mind. Kenshin just smiled slyly as she started to flush a deep crimson. He then smiled sincerely.
"I'm only joking!! I just added that on for kicks! No worries!" Kenshin said as he chuckled. 'Although there should have been a lot more to that answer then there was. Like bedding her and-' His bad side was then interrupted by his other conscience. 'What are you Talking about!?! You disgusting pervert!!' His other side just nodded and snickered. Kenshin then shook his head to get the voices to stop. Now was not the time to be scitsofrenic! Wow...that was a new one.
"Listen! I know it was risky about telling your father that we were on the same team but just hear me out." Kenshin said to her, trying to calm her nerves.
"Oh you have a plan?...What is it then?" Kaoru asked as her patients were starting to run dry.
"Hold on!! I'll tell you! Just-" Kenshin was interrupted by her.
"C'mon!! I want to know what you have planned in that playboy mind of yours!!" She said as she looked at him.
'Oh man you have no idea what I have in store for you baby! Purrrr' His bad side said while making a sound that was close to a purring sound. 'Stop that!!! Down boy!!' His good side ordered. Kenshin was starting to get frustrated. Although his voices where good company, they really didn't know how to handle this girl very well.
"IIIIIII wiiilll...tell you once I think of it ok?..." Kenshin said softly, hoping she would give him some slack.
Kaoru just sighed, and fell back onto the bed. This was going to be a looooong night, and she knew it.
Kenshin smiled and ran his hand over his forehead in relief. He then started pondering a way to get his statement to work. He already knew that he was going to use the 'on the same team' as a way to keep Kaoru out of harms way. But how would he be able to pull it off?...Man this was going to be a long night.
'I can make it longer if you like! Catch my drift?' His bad side purred out. Kenshin's eye started to twitch as his face flushed lightly. He shoved his bad conscience away somewhere. He wasn't going to let that pervert get in the way... Now...back to what he was pondering on...
That's all for now! :D Please review and tell me if you like my new story theme!! ;-;
