"My Choice"

Summ: Kaoru's a princess who wants to be free

A/N: Holy jeeze, I regret writing this, I don't want to take it down for those who may come across this…."literature" and may find it to be good enough to want the story to continue. *Sigh* I will try to do something about it and hey I already have a chapter 3 that's something right?

Oh well enjoy

I don't own Rk

Chapter 3

Soujiro sighed as he watched Lady Kaoru escape the palace again. He didn't want her going out and getting herself in trouble. The King would have their heads if he were to find out that his daughter went out into the city.

Aoshi from the other side of Soujiro also watched as Kaoru disappeared he was going to suggest going back to their rooms or even patrol the area to look like they were actually doing something but was stopped by the solon look Soujiro sported. As much as he thought Soujiro as a warrior and trusty bodyguard he couldn't help think that the lad as a little brother. Aoshi walked over to Soujiro and placed a hand on the boy's shoulder.

Soujiro slightly jumped before inwardly cursing, he wasn't on his guard, if it were an assassin then he mostly likely would have been disposed of. He looked towards Aoshi who obtained his attention. "Yes, Aoshi?"

Aoshi's cold blue eyes narrowed "I would had killed you" he said making Soujiro feel even worse about this lack of concentration. "But you were thinking about the prices right?" Soujiro gave a boyish pout, which made Aoshi smirk "Why don't you go after her? She didn't tell us anything about following her or sneaking out with her. Besides you'd be doing your duty a the Princess' body guard"

Soujiro was a bit stunned as he calculated what Aoshi said, he was right Kaoru said nothing like that, so he could do what he wants regarding the situation. He smiled up at the tall man "Yeah you're right" He began to move away but Aoshi stopped him "What?" he turned around.

Aoshi smirked "You can't go out looking like a palace guard let a lone showing off the Princess' Guard's emblem showing"

Soujiro raised a brow thinking about the situation and immediately shuddered when he understood why Aoshi was smirking at him like that. 'Lady Kaoru'

Kaoru again, disguised as Giin, walked around the bustling market place. Giin graced a few with a smile on his face. Giin had be to the market place quiet a few times after Soujiro and Aoshi found out. Some of the merchants actually began greeting him, Giin was proud about that. For once Giin was being treated as an equal or… a common citizen. The second time Giin had come to the market place he was mugged and regretted what happened. He was a caring around a few silver pieces and a couple of gold pieces, to the common knowledge just caring around a few pieces of silver were a cry to be mugged.

Kaoru had learned the hard way and sought out the help of Soujiro and Aoshi, they gave a stern talking to when she explained what happened. Eventually she was taught the basics of traveling into a city, a town or even a market place and that was "Never carry around more Silver or Gold pieces around unless you want to get mugged or killed!"

That incident almost had Kaoru grounded for life, her body guards didn't care much about getting in trouble with the king just knowing that the princess was safe was worth getting their heads cut off.

Giin moved amongst the crowd until he got the fruit stand that he was first introduced to. He gave a smile as he walked up to kind mother-like woman. "Good Day, Mrs. Himura!" he jogged the rest up.

The red headed woman that he meets the first time coming to the market beamed at him. "Hello Giin-chan" She called out.

Giin blushed as he was being teased again for the beautiful Mrs. Himura. Ever since Giin kept coming by, Mrs. Himura had sworn that Giin was a girl in the passed and that's how he obtained his girly looks. She couldn't be far for the truth, if she noticed how much Giin looked so much like a girl then who's to say that the others can't tell the difference either. "Maa maa, Mrs. Himura, I am not a girl"

She smirked "Well you could be, I mean if you were a girl I wouldn't mind handing Kenshin over to you" she giggled.

'Kenshin!' Kaoru blushed ever since they meet Kenshin has been the source of all embarrassments. They've become customer friends-Giin didn't speak much to Kenshin unless they were around the fruit stand. Other than that Giin managed to avoid all the "good feelings" that he got from Kenshin being there. Besides, Kaoru loved the thought of Mrs. Himura giving Kenshin to her; it was simply rapturous. She liked Mrs. Himura a lot, she reminded of her mother that was deprived of such an early time in her life. She never had the feeling of a "prefect family" or even "a good family" at that. Her father, the King, was always working, she routinely saw her father at least 3 times in 2 months. Though it's not to bad, out of all those 3 times, her fathers attention was solely on her, nothing really irrupted their time together. The whole they would spend together, laughing, playing and even practicing her defensives skills.

Mr. Himura grumbled as he came form the back inside of the fruit stand. Giin grinned, as much as Mr. Himura scared him the first time he was now just a lovable grumpy bear. He was a good father, she could tell, even though he seemed harsh on Kenshin, even he can tell that his father isn't a bad man. "Good Day, Mr. Himura!" Giin waved.

"Oh, hey runt. Still not grown into manly body yet?" Mr. Himura teased.

Like Kaoru thought, everyone did notice her girly looks through out her Giin disguise. Giin deflected "Sir, I will become a man that you will respect one day" He have Mr. Himura a determined look.

"Yea, that would be the day!" Mr. Himura laughed making Kaoru pout.

Giin looked around "Where's Kenshin?" He just noticed that Kenshin wasn't there to greet her like the rest of the family.

"Oh, that damn son of mine, is still at home" Mr. Himura crossed his arms "Yesterday, he said that was doing something. He was still working on it up until late last night. He should had known better than to drain himself out like that"

Mrs. Himura smiled at her worried husband. "Why don't you go check on him?" She asked Giin.

Giin blushed "Wha-what? Me?"

She nodded "Yes you, we trust you enough for you to go get him"

"Kenshin might out of the count for right now but if you do try to do something, just so you know Kenshin wouldn't hesitant to hurt her, you might even get killed if you don't watch it" Mr. Himura grinned at the scared look Giin had on his face.

"Anata" Mrs. Himura smacked her husband's thick and hairy arm and gave out a cute laugh.

Giin sweat dropped, Mrs. Himura didn't deny it but she didn't prove it either. As much as it is an honor to be given such a quest-it was a dangerous quest that he might even end up dead. 'Maybe I shouldn't take up this offer'

End Chapter 3

A/N: After the 2 chapter, I had nowhere for the story to go to-I wrote like little parts that may had went into the story and they were all *lemons* and I made Kaoru into a little hoe and i didn't want that into the story. This story is a bit annoying to me and I really hate to say that I wrote something like this but I had a colorful inspiration to at least end the story. I'm making it shore and simple so I can end it. I also changed the title too, when I reread it the original title was sort of like a mockery. Original title "Sorry", I was like "Yea, I'm real sorry for writing/thinking up this story" Almost all my RK fics are going to be rewritten in some type of way. "The Dragon that stole my heart" I'm completely chaining it but I am going to leave up the original so that it can still be read. "The White Wolf and his Jewel"-change a few things but other than that it going to stay the same. As of right now I'm just working on the very first stories that I upload onto . They deserve a second chance and now this will be their time to shine again!

Ok well, review. Don't abandon the story like I want to.
