I don't own Rurouni Kenshin

Kaoru

She was chained to the wall under the house. They'd fed her a sedative that would keep her asleep until the morning. For once sleep was all she wanted. When her eyes opened in the morning she would once again remember that her love was dead and she was here to avenge him.

For now however she was free.

Dream

The sun shone inside her room. Little feet came running down the hall screaming mother and father as loud as he could.

Kaoru laughed as Kenshin tickled her upset she'd pushed him away because their son was coming. He'd been away to help out Sano with his house. It took longer than he thought and he returned home his wife was fast asleep.

Their room door opened and in walked a little boy squeezing mama daddy. He was so cute and small. He couldn't have been more than two years old. Smiling with no care in the world no sword in hand or scars from practice just a small baby boy.

Kenshin looked up and called the boy by name. Kenji he said. That name suite him her little Kenji and Kenshin. The only things she needed in this world were in the room with her and she couldn't ask for anything more.

More steps came and in walked Yahiko,"Hey Ugly I'm here to invite you to my wedding but its hard to do if you spend all day in bed."

"Yahiko unless you want to be missing for your wedding you might want to keep quite."

"Mama no ugly"

"That's right Kenji you tell him."

The babe wobbled on his feet to hit his uncle's legs. Not being able to reach anything else because of his height. Yahiko being the great uncle he was fell to the like he was in pain. It wasn't long ago were he felt the need to protect the woman in the room.

"What has Sano said about the Wedding?"

"The rooster and the fox said they'd be there. I bet they'll come stay here at the dojo so keep an eye out."

"We will now if you take your nephew out with you we can start getting ready."

The groom to be walked out with him nephew in hand leaving the couple alone. Knowing there was no way in hell they were going to get up and get ready. If anything Kenshin was going to talk her into staying in bed all day. Sadly Uncle Yahiko wasn't in the mood to baby sit.

"Kenshin move we have to get up."

"Kiss me and tell me that again."

Kaoru glazed her lips over his earning a growl from her husband. Now that their son was distracted he could have his wife to himself for a moment. If she thought that little peck was all he was going to get this morning. His love was sadly mistaken.

Lips traveled from mouth to neck dragging slowly until they stopped and began to suck hard then soft desperately wanting to leave a mark. Until they were reminded of the wedding in a few days still they had their fun moving to the little spot behind her ear.

A glorious moan reworded him of his efforts begging for more forgetting that they must be silent. Little feet may come running down to their room to remind them that they are late once again for breakfast.

Painfully slow the lips leave her neck forcing eyes to open and stare into gold. Pure gold eyes and smile at how purely happy she is. To the point where she cries when it starts to get blurry. Knowing in a few seconds she will wake and all his will be gone forever.

End of dream

"Wake up"

Blue eyes open her sword in hand. Within seconds the floor was plastered with bodies. No one could escape the Blue Rose or the hell she brought.

Each man was Sano stand in the way of Megumi. The women were Megumi trying to plead her case. Nothing short of death would stop her. Men, woman, young, old, none of that mattered.

Even though she was getting her revenge making the evil family pay for using others to destroy her life. All Kaoru could do was cry. Sorrow flowed through her soul as she quenched her thirst for blood. Fact still remains that no matter how many she killed. Who she killed it would never bring him back.

That fact hurt more than she could stand. It didn't matter she would right all wrongs by the end of the night.

Hiko

He couldn't believe they just let her lose on the compound. Not that it mattered because too was killing an entire clan but still. At least he knew what he was doing.

His little flower did not.

For a moment he stopped to watch her dance. Her sword moved with grace like her mother. He was looking into the past so far into it that it crushed him in the future.

Every day Hiko wished Kaoru was his child and he hated Ruka for that. But if he ever truly loved her then he would protect her child now. If he got his own revenge then he would add that to the few blessings he had in life.

Turning away from his little flower Hiko headed to kill his students murder.

Tomeo

Sitting in her room she listens to the slaughter from outside. Her husband sat across from her looking dismayed. For a moment she studied his face.

"Is this how you pictured it all ending?"

"What?"

"Did you ever think you would die before you could see your family take over?"

"We just have to last until morning."

"The Blue Rose won't let us last the next hour let alone the morning."

"Why have you given up?"

"All of this was for you. Now I will die protecting. Just like your lover."

"I never…"

"No but you still loved him. But so long as someone is willing to die for you. You my wife will always be well."

"I love you. I will not let you sit here and say otherwise."

"You may love but that doesn't change the fact you used me and the Battousai. If you cared for him or me you would have said something sooner. When he thought you were dead you should have told him others wise. Instead you allowed him to take the fall. Kill what little happiness he found with a woman who wants nothing to do with our world. And steal happiness away from her."

"Her family deserved all of this and more."

"Maybe but she was not raised in our way. Her mother started this but her child shouldn't be to blame. You could have easily called a meeting and discussed a new head family. Instead you went out for blood. Like your mother and now we are to join her in hell."

"My mother is smiling down on us."

"No she is looking up from hell. She could have left it all alone when she killed everyone Ruka and her family. Instead she continues the blood shed by looking for Ruka's husband and their child. So you see my love we are going to burn in hell. I simply wanted to know if you ever thought of what would happen if you field."

Akira stood and kissed his wife's lips savoring the sweet smell of plum and her natural scent. His wife was a monster but he was as much so for aiding her. Becoming death so she could have all she wanted in life.

The door opened as the two parted knowing that death had finally come for them.

I know it's been a long time but to make up for it I will post another chp tonight or tomorrow. Please read and review.
