Hey guys!!!
Thanks so much for reading my story this far!! And I am so sorry if you
could not review before. the settings were being difficult at first and
then I forgot the next time I was on there. Gomen Nasai.
Anyway. For those of you wondering. I do have a reason for 'picking' on Yahiko. That will come out later on in the story.
Okay well, I really do not wish to bore you and throw you off by this opening. so I'll let you get on with reading.
Oh and I'm sorry about the length of this chapter, too. I actually spend more time talking than writing the story. ;)
Disclaimer: I do not own Kenshin or Sailor Moon, so you have no reason to sue me on counts that this is only a story that I wrote borrowing the characters.
REMEMBER TO R&R!!!!
(on top of that, enjoy)
Chapter 5: The Knife and the New Student
Karou walked into the room, sighing. Sojiro, Sanosuke, and Kenshin all waited for the news of Yahiko's condition. She held up the glittering knife that was in Yahiko's shoulder just a few hours before. "Megumi managed to get it out without further injury. She says he'll be fine."
The room suddenly became less tense as everyone let out a sigh of relief. "That's great!" Sanosuke exclaimed.
Kenshin's eyes, however, were on the familiar knife. Karou noticed this and turned to him. "What is it Kenshin?" she asked.
"Let me see the knife," he told her, with a slight edge in his voice. She handed it to him and he began examining it. The room became silent as Kenshin's hands wandered over it, carefully tracing the descriptive carvings in its handle with his fingers. The gems glistened in the fire's light as he twisted around to examine it more fully. When his eyes turned to the bloodied blade, he gasped.
"What is it, Kenshin?" Sojiro spoke, disturbing the silence. Kenshin did not respond but continued to gape at the blade, seemingly more fascinated in the dull, bloodied blade than the brilliant handle. "What's wrong?" he repeated.
This time Kenshin responded, surprising them all with the change in tone in his voice; this time surprised and worried. "I recognize this. It's the knife I left for my sister when I went away, so she'd have something to remember me by." he trailed off again.
They sat in silence for several minutes, pondering on what Kenshin had said.
Finally it was broken when Sanosuke said incredulously, "You do know that we have a guest, right? Let's let him get settled."
Karou looked at him then at Sojiro. "Oh, right. I'm so sorry Sojiro. We have not even begun to show you proper hospitality. Here let Sanosuke carry your bags and I'll take you to your room. I hope you do not mind, but you are going to have to share with Sanosuke for a few days." Kenshin heard her voice trail off as they left the room. He jumped suddenly when a knock at the came. He got up and opened the door, and half heartily said, "Can I help you?"
The girl looked at him, her rose red lips curling into a smile, her green eyes sparkling. "Oh hello, there. I need to speak with Miss Kamiya, please."
Karou came up behind Kenshin and stared at the girl. She wore a silk green kimono with a darker green sash, completely complementing her eyes. She carried as silver-handed sword resting in it's sheath at her side. As her soft, brown hair fluttered gently in the wind, Karou became more and more jealous as Kenshin seemed to gape at her beauty. "Can I help you?" she asked curtly.
She took a step forward, quickly asking, "Miss Kamiya, I presume?" Karou smiled affirmatively. "I am so sorry to bother you so late, but I am interested in the Kamiya Kaashin style of swordsmanship." {I really don't know if that's how you spell it, but oh well}
Karou's eyes widened excitedly with the possibility of a new student. "Please, please come in!" Karou said rushing her through the door and into the dojo. "So what would you like to know?"
"Well, truth be told, I am looking for a sensei who will teach me more techniques. If you haven't already guessed by the sword I carry, I am a swordswoman and I would like to learn more," she responded lifting the sword off her waist.
"I would love to teach you anything you want to know. Let's just sign you up. what did you say your name was?"
"Makoto," she said and Kenshin jumped. "Makoto Kino."

Okay guys. Now comes the little closing part everyone puts on. :(
Please Read and Review my stories!! I right now have two stories out and a poem, so please go r&r them as well. The poem, I really can't add anything too, but please, please go read it! It's about SOJIRO!! (Sorry, couldn't help myself)
Out of the stories, the one with the most reviews will get the next chapter, I mean like adding onto it, I think right now, my other crossover has none and this story has 8 and the poem has one but whatever. I am asking for five reviews maybe? Please?!?!?!? Arigatou!!
For those of you who actually read after the story congratulations! You get a special sneak peek at what's coming up! Yeah! Well actually you get some of the plot: so if you don't want to know what happens: do not, repeat, do not read the rest of this paragraph. Okay? Stopped reading yet? Good. Okay as you know, Karou has just met Mako-chan, who seems to just be friendly and wants to learn about Karou's sword technique. Well Karou's father's technique. Whatever! She invites Mako-chan to stay at the dojo with her and something happens. {American psycho music} Okay I wish I could tell you the rest, but there is still some foggy parts. All I know is eventually Mako-chan, Karou, and Megumi disappear and the boys go rescue them and then and only then will you discover my purpose with 'picking' on Yahiko.
One more thing and then you can go: I'm working on pairings people for this and my other stories! And I cannot figure out how to do this:
Sanosuke: ? Kenshin: ? Yahiko: ? Sojiro: ?
You're choices are: Karou (duh), Megumi, Mako-chan, and a little girl who may or may not appear in this fan fiction. Also any other characters are welcome, but try to use some of these. They may or may not get used that way, but I still wish to know what might happen.
PLEASE, PLEASE REMEMBER TO R&R!!!! Arigatou!
