Save Me

I don't own R.K.

Her body dripping in sweats screaming pain but she hadn't felt so life. Training again made her feel a little like the woman she was before she was on the run. Putting the bokken away she walked out of the dojo into the main house looking for someone to direct her to the bath house.

The red head Lord of the house finally wondered to where his woman was. Only on servant seemed to know but she was no longer in the dojo or the bath house. Not that she could have gone far with the staff informed that she wasn't to go anywhere off the grounds.

If he wasn't so sure that she feared those after her more than life as a married woman he would have searched outside. Finally he came up on her a few rooms down from there. Shaking his head at how lost she knew what room she was looking for.

"It seems you have gotten yourself lost Koi."

"Yes I have and stop calling me that."

"I don't think I will, not if you please fallow me I will show you the way."

Not trusting herself to insult him she waited for him to lead. But of course that would have been too easy. They stood there forever and a day all he did was stare at her.

"Is there something fascinating about this spot or are you going to show me to the bath house."

Still nothing.

"If you are staring at my breast I will slap the piss out of you."

That however got his attention.

"I warn you such acts will not go unpunished. "

"Then keep your eye on my face and not my breast."

"If you would continue leave them exposed I can't promise not to stare."

Kaoru's face turned five shades of red as she covered her slef up.

"Shall I show you the way?"

Her blue eye continued to send ice daggered his way. All Kenshin could do was laugh at how much fun it was annoying her.

It was late afternoon everyone seemed ready to move. They could no longer stay in the same area not with someone knowing their location. At first light they would move to another farther from prying eyes the next place Kaoru would think to go to.

Misao walked into the room that Sano and his wench now shared. Wondering where their missing sister was. She came to the realization that he never said anything about her when he arrived.

Opening the door she saw Sano red eyed his woman on the other side of the room in the same state. It looked like a heart to heart and while she didn't want to interrupt. Kaoru's location was more important.

"Sano I need a word."

He got up without a word or glancing back into the room. Now was as good time as any.

"Where is Kaoru?"

His face froze and looked away.

"You do know where she is right."

"NO not exactly."

"What!"

"Look she is safe. Safer than she is with me or you anyway."

"What do you know you pea brained chicken."

"She…She's….with….the Battousai"

"You lie, what she would be doing with him. Why did you leave her with him if what you are saying is true?"

"He owes her that's all I am saying. He won't hurt her from what he was saying he wants her for his own."

"I can't UH…I JUST CAN'T RIGHT NOW!"

Misao turned and ran the other way. How could she be traveling with him? When he's the one who…Unless she didn't know.

"Sano what do you know about her mother."

"The Blue Rose."

"Yes"

"Only that she was a kick ass fighter and swordsmen. Her dad never loved again and some family killed her."

The small woman in front of Sano looked even smaller. Like the world was falling around her.

"Did she seem like she liked him at all."

"I don't know why?"

I know this is short but my mother is having surgery so I have to help take care of her. Please R&R so I know if I'm doing a good job. Until next time!
