The Battousai from Europe

Well, here is chapter two. I am actually surprised; I never thought it would be so popular… Well, here is what you have all been waiting for!

Chapter Two: The Two Hitokiri

The Englishman sheathed his sword and started to walk towards Kenshin, but the tall man with spiky hair stopped his progress short. "Out of the way, punk," he growled.

"I dunno what you just said, but if you can't beat me, you can't beat Kenshin," Sano responded. However, seeing that he wasn't getting anywhere, the foreigner stepped back and put his hand on his odd sword. Sanosuke knew just how to beat him. The armor was the only thing protecting him, and the "mastery of the three layers" would be able to destroy it easily. Not giving the man a chance to draw his sword, Sanosuke charged.

In the second that closed the distance between the two fighters, the Englishman drew his knife and, using the momentum that the fist fighter gave himself, stabbed his opponent in the chest. Sanosuke stopped short and collapsed to the ground.

"Pathetic," the knight muttered, and spat on the ground. He sheathed his dagger and stepped over the unconscious man. He hadn't killed him; he just hit him in a non-vital spot. The only man he was going to kill was in front of him, with red hair and a cross -shaped scar…

Kenshin stepped forward as Sanosuke went down. He had heard rumors about this knight; according to them, he was as fearsome in Europe as Kenshin was during the Bakumatsu, perhaps even more. Kenshin knew what – no, who – he was here for. He was here to kill the rurouni.

As Kenshin put a hand on his sakabato, the knight stepped forward, and put a hand on his sword as well. "Kenshin?" the knight asked in rough Japanese. Kenshin jumped forward lightening fast, also not giving his opponent the time to react. The foreigner jumped back, and parried off the rurounis' attack. Kenshin immediately executed the spiral dragon flash; however, the knight warded off that blow too.

Damn Kenshin thought. Although the armor looked heavy, it apparently wasn't.

The battle raged on for another hour, each using key moves. Finally, Kenshin got through with his ultimate attack. By this time, the knight had drawn his dagger, and was breathing heavily. Kenshin's attack knocked the European onto the ground. Before the police could move in, however, he got up and ran off.

That way… Leads to the river! Kenshin sprinted after him, but he was too exhausted to run after him.

As he charged through the town European headed towards what he thought was a river. Luckily, he found his way without collapsing. Looking behind him, he heard shrill whistles coming towards him. Some people had started to gather, and he plunged into the river. Then, everything went black…

Hey, sorry this chapter is so bad and short. But I needed to finish it before I get grounded…. I am failing math. Well, by the time I get back on, and work on other stories, I should have ideas to go on with this. So, till then!
