Third Chapter is here, and I'm glad you guys review it! :]

Disclaimer (Forgot to be put on the other chapters): I don't own Rurouni Kenshin. Nor will I ever do. =_= I'm just a person that makes the characters all jacked up in my story. But hey :] Enjoy!


"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Kaoru groaned as she walked down from the stairs. "Why do we have such a big house?" She protested under her breath. The girl took a look at her foot, forgetting the warning on not to put too much stress on it.

"Kaoru!" She heard her mom yelled. Shishio and Yahiko were in the living room watching football, while Misao was in the kitchen with their mother. "Hi Kaoru!" Her mother embraced her. "I heard something terrible happened during the concert!"

"Some monsters interrupted my first concert, and they told me they wanted to find the Soul of Blades…" She saw her mom's mouth hanged open and blinked back a few tears.

"Those damn creatures!" Her mother cursed. "They wouldn't stop at anything just to get those blades. Kaoru, you have a rare ability that none of your siblings have. You must take care of it, okay-my daughter?" Her mother gave a smile that made Kaoru light up.

"Yes, I will-Mom," the girl replied softly. She made her way towards the living room and hopped onto a seat next to Yahiko.

Misao placed her hands over her mom. The mom looked curiously over to her, and she saw her eyes filled with confidence.

"Don't worry, Mom. Aoshi, Shishio, Yahiko, and I will take care of her." Misao said with pride. "But…" Her voice started trailing off. "The ability that she has…Did she inherited from Father?" Misao carefully asked.

Her mother looked like she wanted to blow up and break anything in the house. However, the mother just sighed tiredly. "I wish I can say no, but I can't." Misao just nodded and went over to refrigerator to pour some orange juice. "Misao!" Her mother caught her attention again. "How is your wound doing?"

The girl blinked several times and realized what she meant. Without conscious, Misao lifted her hand to touch the band-aid. She flinched back in the pain and bit back a scream. "It still hurts and stings…It probably the second time where I ever got a monster to land a scratch on me…"

Her mother, once again, sighed and walked over to the living room. Shishio and Yahiko were arguing who was going to win. "The Jets are going to win, and you can deny it! It would be impossible for the Whales to win in less than an hour!" Yahiko pointed out angrily.

"The Whales will make it in time! Once they do, I'm going to kick your ass to tell you that I was right! Plus don't you mean 'you can't deny it?" " Shishio yelled at him.

"Now! Now!" The mother of the two interjected. "You both need to calm down and enjoyed the game." She said as calm as an angel.

"Mom, those two don't know the definition of calm," Kaoru muttered on her breath. "What?" Shishio and Yahiko yelled at Kaoru. She just chuckled away evilly and turned her attention back to the game. "You Busu! I'm going to kick you!" With that warning, Yahiko kick the one place he shouldn't have kick.

Kaoru yelped loudly in pain and took a look at foot. "Yahiko! Don't kick me there! That is the same place where I got stabbed!" She blinked a few tears back and glared at Yahiko.

"Geez, no need to get work on it!" Yahiko mumbled under his breath. Kaoru could still hear it anyway and started cracking her knuckles.

"Say that one more-Yahiko!" She said sweetly but creepy. Yahiko's eyes rise and he screamed in fear.

"No!" He yelped and tried his best to get away from Kaoru. She had his leg firmed against her hand and was pulling him towards her.

"Kaoru!" Her mother said in a snapped, and Kaoru immediately let go.

"Mom-," she protested. But was interrupted by her mom's glare.

"Just let me relax without hearing the two of you arguing for once!" Kaoru sent a guilt look towards her mom. Misao came into the living room and hopped the seat next to Kaoru.

"If you wondering where I am, I'm going to be next door," the sister whispered.

Kaoru grinned and saw Misao blushing. "Aoshi's house or the Geezer's house?"

"It's Aoshi's house of course!" She hissed at her and went to the front door [Side note: Yes, she took a shower, okay?]

"Misao!" Her mom yelled. Kaoru shook her head, which cause the middle age woman to know she wasn't going to where she thought she was.

"I can go do the errands for you," her daughter suggested. The woman smiled and handed her a piece of paper.

"These are all the things I want you to buy! Why don't you bring Yahiko along?" The two siblings and mother stared at Yahiko. Yahiko looked at the three of them and wished he wasn't the center of attention now.

"That would be great!" Kaoru flashed a toothy grin and glared at Yahiko. "Go take a shower now," she commanded. Yahiko snarled at her before he walked over to his (room is on first floor) and pulled some stuff out of his drawer.

Kaoru carefully marched up the stairs and groaned loudly. "Why am I so stupid! Stepping on a piece of glass shard!" She grabbed some clothes out of her drawer and walked into her bathroom that was connected to her room.

The girl walked downstairs and saw Yahiko already dressed up. His hair was spiked up as usual, and he seemed to be ready. The boy grabbed his hoodie from the closet and placed the gray cloth over him.

"Are you ready, Busu?" He asked with an irritate tone.

"Hold on!" She cried as she went over to her mom. "Can I try on those contacts that you order last week?"

"Well, sure honey…Um…What are you asking me? It's your contacts," the mother said as she picked up the remote. "You don't mind if I change the channel-honey?"

Shishio just shrugged his shoulders, giving the mother an answer "yes". She started flipping the channels, and Kaoru groaned. "Don't you have something to do, Sis?" Shishio gave a reminder grin, and Kaoru blushed.

"Bye!" She waved to them and grabbed her contacts off the sink in the bathroom. With one contact lens on her finger, Kaoru carefully place it over her eyes and blinked several time. It sting a little on her eyes but she could deal with it.

When Kaoru finally got the other contact lens in the other eye, she stared at herself in the mirror. The only thing she could see in her eyes was gray, replacing the sapphire orbs that were masked.

She went to the front porch and grabbed Yahiko's hand. "Let go of me!" He struggled, and Kaoru just smiled.

"I'm not letting the chances of you walking out from this, okay? I bet you want to go see Tsubame!" Just one name caused Yahiko to blush as hard as an apple.

"You idiot!" He growled and jerked away from his sister. "C-Can we not talk about her and go inside the car?" He staggered his way to the car, while his sister just laughed.

"Okay, okay…" She said as she pushed the key into the engine. "I just hope you guys are going out now…" Kaoru muttered on the last part, but Yahiko could hear it very clearly.

"We are only ten years old, and we are never going to go out!" Yahiko protested. Kaoru just chuckled evilly and sent him a prideful look.

"Sure you won't, Yahiko…Sure you won't!" She repeated evilly, and Yahiko gulped loudly. He had a bad feeling that Kaoru was planning up to no good.


"Eerggh! Damn it! He's late again!" Sanosuke cursed under his breath. "I have to know what happened yesterday!" Suddenly Kenshin was there, his hair tied lowly. "There you are Kenshin!" Sanosuke yelled in glee as he jumped from his seat.

"Dude, you are acting like we never got to see each other." Kenshin said as he sat on the seat across from his best friend. "What's up?" He asked as he picked up a menu book.

"What's up? You dare say what's up?" Sanosuke asked in suspicious. "Kenshin, there was a person that slit someone's head off, and you didn't come with us in the taxi!" He almost yelled.

Kenshin shot a look towards Sanosuke that said to calm down. "I had other things to do…"

"With a person on the lose?" Kenshin didn't look into his eyes. He was afraid if his friend found out that he was Battousai, he would- "Kenshin, didn't your mommy warn you that a demon will run lose on the street out night?" Sanosuke demanded. Kenshin lifted his head, confused by Sano's word.

"I doubt that, Sanosuke." His best friend snickered that had an "of course" tone.

"Well the demon only has been around four years…" Sanosuke muttered on his breath. Kenshin felt his heart stopped, knowing where this conversation may lead up too.

"W-Who are you talking about?" Kenshin hesitated but the question already came out. There was no turning back for the answer now…

"Battousai the manslayer-Idiot! You know that everyone fears him at night. Some people even dared to walk around at night, thinking that Battousai is just a rumor!" Sanosuke looked pretty gusto, and Kenshin gulped, his throat dry.

"Some die, some don't, some people believe he is doing this for justice. But do you wanna what I think?" Sano questioned. Kenshin was going to say something, but Sano beat him to that. "I think he's a guy trying to be superman!" He snickered under his breath.

"Oro?" Kenshin squeaked. He realized the squeak and shook his head. "Why would you think that? He's doing that so we can live for a better country! There are demons, monsters, and-," he stopped. He was spitting out the truth, and Sanosuke raised one of his eyebrows in suspicion.

"Don't tell me you look up to him too! That guy is cold and heartless. I meant him one time, and he almost took my life!" A flashback went back into Kenshin's head. He remembered the rooster guy, age 13, walking around the city with no fear. There is no time for flashback!

"Okay, can we get back on why you invited me here? 'Cause I know you didn't invite me to see I was okay- you know." Sanosuke smiled like a moron.

"You really understand dude…You really do…Well anyone, what did you think of her?"

"Who?" Kenshin asked as his eyes scanned the menu around.

"You know who I'm talking about! Saya!" Sanosuke said.

"Oh her. I guess she was okay…" Kenshin lied. A waitress came towards them, and Sanosuke whistled at her. "Can I get this noodle here?" The lady peeked over to the menu book and nodded as she jotted down the books. She firmly took the book and left in silence

"Kenshin, did you realized who that was?" Sanosuke nudged at him. His best friend cocked his head. "Th-I-I can't believe she works here! This is my favorite restaurant now!"

His friend snickered and grinned at him like a fool. "I guess you are going to try your best to hit on her, EH?" Sanosuke just nodded in pleased.

"She's such a beauty. Why didn't she tell me she worked here?" Sano asked, dazed off into his dream.

"Probably so she doesn't have to look at your rooster hair," Kenshin guessed. He received a glared from his friend, and Kenshin just laughed. "Sano, you know that I'm just kidding! But I can't see what you see in her…"

This time it was Sanosuke snickering and laughing at the same time. "Says the guy that gazed into the nerd of the school!" Kenshin felt his cheek flaring and was about to protest at him, but Megumi came back with Kenshin's noodle. She set it on the table and walked away.

"Did you see that! She's like a model when she w-walks! I wonder why she doesn't like me like Sayo…." He wondered out loud.

"Because Sanosuke, you are a guy who flirts with every girl. And there are type of girls that don't like that," Kenshin said as he blew on the steamy noodle.

"Says the guy that is the biggest womanizer in the school! You have girls confess their heart out, and you reject them. AND you flirt with them. 'There are types of girls that don't like that,'" Sanosuke repeated with an imitation of Kenshin's voice.

Megumi came back with a tray with filled with fry rice and set it firmly on the table. "Would you guys like anything to drink?" She asked indignantly.

"I would like to drink y-"

"I would like to have a taro smoothie," Kenshin interrupted Sanosuke. His friend sent him a deathful glare, and Kenshin just stuck his tongue out in a childish way.

"Sorry rooster boy but they don't serve a drink call, 'Megumi'. So pick up another drink, or I'll give you the same as Kenshin." Megumi said, placing her hands on her hips.

"Just give me the same as Kenshin…" Sanosuke muttered under his breath in disappointment. When Megumi walked away, Kenshin heard Sanosuke cursing. The redhead boy ignored his friend when he finally cursed about him and started eating his noodle.

"I hate you Kenshin! I hate you Kenshin! You always ruin my chance with her! God damn it! You always fuckin make me look like a fool! I'm going to break your neck when I have the chance too!" Kenshin just burst out laughing.

"You are hilarious, Sanosuke! You are hilarious!" Kenshin said as he wiped a tear away from laughter. "Anyway, do you think we can win against the panthers on Monday?" He said, turning the conversation on football.

"Well of course we are going to win, Kenshin! You are the best football player in the school. That's why you are quarterback!" Sanosuke complimented him as he dig into his fry rice. "Soo good!" He said in amazement and kept chopping the food down.

Kenshin gave him the best smile he could have given to anyone. A bell rang when the entrance door opened, and Kenshin turned to see who it was. There, he found his mouth hanging opened and closed it immediately. "Yahiko!" The redhead yelled to the boy and grabbed his ear. "You stole that hoodie from me! I remember you stole it, but why is it shrunk-never mind!" Kenshin said. He was irritated by the fact that a little fly just stole it. It was his favorite hoodie as well!

"Sorry Kenshin, but I really liked this hoodie," Yahiko confessed and saw Kenshin glaring at him.

"I also liked the hoodie!" He yelled at the little boy. Suddenly the teenager forgot he was in the café and snarled at the little boy. "Why are you here anyway?" The teenager hissed.

"I have to run errands with my-my um…friend…" He said with caution. Kenshin nodded and sighed.

"Hey it's little raccoon!" Sanosuke blurted out. Yahiko felt his one of his blood vessels popped and glared at the rooster guy. "Awww! The little kid is mad! That is just soo adorable!" The teenager said with a snickered.

"Don't. Call. Me. A. Kid!" Yahiko screamed and struggled to punch Sanosuke, but Kenshin pushed him away from his friend.

The door bell rang again, and another person came in. The person lifted her head up, and Kenshin saw something that seems recognizable. She didn't look exactly like Saya but she looked relative to her. Her hair was like raven black silk with sky blue highlights. The eyes of her was gray, and Kenshin knew those were contacts but they were still beautiful.

"Ka-," Yahiko was about to yelled, but the girl punched him the head.

"Yahiko, did you get the stuff yet or not?" She asked and noticed that the redhead was looking at her. "I'll go get it myself!" She groaned and stomped her way to the cashier.

"Yahiko, who is that?" Kenshin asked. He saw that the questioned pinned Yahiko's heart and saw the boy looking all over the room. "Who is she?" Kenshin repeated again, more softly.

"She's-um-Nori! She's Nori!" Yahiko said bluntly. "Nori is my-um-sister's-I mean-Kaoru's best friend. She doesn't live around here." Yahiko explained. For some reason, Kenshin didn't buy it. The way the little boy stuttered just made him assumed he was lying. Also he felt this chi before, and he couldn't wrap his fingers around it.

"Oh okay…" He heard Sanosuke, once again, snickering behind him.

"Kenshin is crushing on someone!" Sanosuke said with a tease.

"I am not!" Kenshin protested. "I was just wondering who she was-okay?" Sanosuke nodded, but Kenshin knew Sano wouldn't him at all.

"Sure you were, Kenshin." The redhead clenched his fist and slumped down on the chair. If only his friend knew that he was speaking the truth, it would make his life better. "Well, at least you are crushing on a babe and not a nerd!" Kenshin's ear twitched and he couldn't help but lifted his eyebrows up. "What?" Kenshin almost yelled, and he swiftly got up from his seat. "Who said I was crushing on that girl, and who said I was crushing on a nerd?"

"Which nerd are you guys talking about?" Yahiko interject, and he saw the rooster guy grinning like a fool.

"Your sis', Kaoru," the rooster guy said.

"Oh that nerd! Pssh! That girl isn't worth it, Kenshin. I'll tell you this since she wouldn't bark at me: the girl is beyond your league." Kenshin pulled back from Yahiko and narrowed his eyes in confusion.

"What are you talking about? And I don't like her okay! How many times do I have to say that?" Kenshin protested, and Yahiko just smiled.

"Don't worry, Kenshin. I can keep your secret! But just pay me five bucks." The little kid placed his hands out, waiting for the money.

"Look kid, I told you that I don't have a crush on your ugly sister!" Kenshin poked his finger into Yahiko's chest and snarled at him. "And I'm not going to pay five bucks for something that isn't true!" He resumed eating into his noodle.

"Yahiko, let's go!" The girl said. Yahiko quickly rushed by her side and carry the coffee cup. "What shop do we have to go to?"

The little boy quickly grabbed the paper from his pocket and scanned through it. "We have to go to the supermarket! It seems like Mom is making ka tieu today!" Yahiko exclaimed with such glee.

Kaoru's eyes widen and couldn't help but squeal in gusto. "Yes! I can't wait to eat! Mom always makes the best noodles!" She exclaimed and quickly pulled Yahiko to run towards the store.


The two siblings arrived home, hands filled with grocery bags. "We're home!" Kaoru's voice sang throughout the hallway. They both settled the bags on the table and went outside to the back porch.

"Mom, I have something to tell you!" Kaoru called over to her. Her mother looked over to Kaoru curiously. "I have an f-fr-friend-," she struggled to the word out and saw her mother cocked her head in confusion. "Well, yeah. Our teacher assigned partners to people and so I got stuck with this redhead dude, and we can't work on it in class. He said that he's coming over to today, so can he? It's for a project, Mom!" Kaoru begged on her knees dramatically.

The mother had little sweat drops forming and looked over to Misao. She saw her youngest daughter grinning like an idiot and punched Yahiko in the head when he whispered something in her ear.

"Um sure, Honey. Just don't do anything that is explicit…" Her mother muttered on the last part. When she looked up at Kaoru, the only thing she could find on her face was shock. Just pure shock that was over her face.

"M-Mom!" She yelled, embarrassed by her statement. "I-I would never do that with that redhead, ignorant guy!" Kaoru sent a deathful glare towards all of her family members that were smirking at her and shut the door behind her. She marched towards upstairs and slide to her room. There, Kaoru tugged the fake highlights off and put the contacts back in the case. There wasn't any prescription in the lens (the same with her glasses as well).

The girl grabbed her glasses and placed them over her eyes. It was around five in the afternoon, and that means in one hour Kenshin would be here. Suddenly the words of her mother repeated in her head. Just don't do anything that is explicit. Kaoru cursed and punched the mirror. Why would Mother think like that? I-I would never do such things!

An hour later, as Kaoru looked at the window, she realized someone's car was in front of the house. It was unfamiliar but familiar in a way. She then saw him there. Kaoru remembered seeing him at the café today, but she didn't really pay attention. Now that she did, she felt something cold rushing through her bloods. It was really hard to forget what happened last night. His eyes were amber that time and could blind anyone' eyes. It sent a shiver down her spine, and Kaoru tried to slap herself not to think about it. How am I going to work on the project now?

The eyes of Kenshin weren't amber like last time; they were pure lavender that enriched the calmness, nice, and handsomeness of-wait…did I just think of him handsome? Oh no, Kaoru, snap yourself out of this! You are being seduced by him. Kaoru shook her head furiously and took a deep breath. She walked over to her balcony and leaned over it.

"Kenshin!" She yelled trying to get his attention. He quickly looked towards the side of the house and saw Kaoru. He walked towards the side of the house, and Kaoru told him to climb the stepping stones.

"Oh this is ridiculous!" Kenshin muttered under his breath, but he still did it. As he placed his hand and foot each stepping stone, it brought him even closer to the balcony. Once he put his hand on the balcony, Kaoru pulled him up with all her strength.

Kenshin noticed that Kaoru immediately jerk away from him and was shivering in fear. "Hey Kaoru, you okay?" He asked with concerns. She looked up at him with-um-glasses.

"Y-Yeah I'm fine. We should start working on the project now…" She said shaky and stepped into the room. When Kenshin stepped his foot into the room, his eyes opened wide. The room was really huge, but it wasn't really that big surprise that the room would be large since the place is a mansion.

"Nice-um-room you got?" Kenshin complimented unsurely. Kaoru shot him a glare and threw a hello kitty plush at him.

"One word about how this room is, and I'll hurt you!" She hoarsely threatens. Kenshin flashed her cocky grin, and Kaoru sent him one last meaningful look. "Let's to get the project, shall we?" She went over to her drawer and grabbed the book of it. Kenshin sat down on a chair, and Kaoru took the opposite seat in front of him.

"What chapter did you get?" Kenshin asked as he randomly flipped the pages.

"I'm still on chapter one…" Kaoru muttered under her breath. Because of the concert (which was kind of a waste in a way), she didn't get to read the book. "What about you?" She asked.

Kenshin lifted his eyes from the book to look at Kaoru. "I'm already done with the book," he said softly. Kaoru's eyes flipped out, and she swiftly jumped from her seat.

"You what?" She yelled at him. "But you were-!"

"I was what?"

You were killing monsters, one by one at night. Most likely you would be tired! Kaoru wanted to say that to him, but he didn't know that she was Saya. It was really great that she was a person who would think before do. "He's Battousai, remember? The strongest being on Earth that is living." A thought snapped into her mind, and Kaoru bit her lips from yelling at herself. Of course! Why did she forget?

"You were at Saya's concert, right?" Kaoru continued differently.

"Yeah I was…" His face darkening for a second. She could have sworn she saw amber specks in the lavender eyes, but sorceresses don't have the greatest eye sights.

"Sorry, did something bad happen over there?" Like I didn't know.

"It doesn't really matter, does it? We have to get back on the story. Anyway, here are some notes that I jotted down along the way. The one with the stars are the one that is really important, and we have to do a scene in it. No choice…" Kenshin handed her a couple of papers, and Kaoru examined it.

"These are really well written. I guess you take pride in your work, huh?" Kaoru said, amused. She saw Kenshin giving her a cocky grin; the grin that she hated the most.

"I take pride in anything, Kaoru. Well, anyway, if you looked at this here, we are going to have to need a lot of props and some people to act out with us. Saito-Sensei said it was okay to use 'extras' in the scene we choose."

"Was the book good?" Kaoru asked. She saw Kenshin stopped for a moment and shrugged his shoulders.

"I guess it was. Anyway, back on topic. Cinderella is in line, waiting to get some toasty bread, and all the sudden, Romeo comes in. From there, the young couples are arguing and the conclusion comes with Cinderella giving Romeo the bitch slap…How are we going to do that?" He asked. Kaoru frowned in frustration and shook her head with disapproval.

"We are going to have to go back in the book and copy the dialogue, stupid!" She yelled as she grabbed two highlighters from the table. The girl tossed the boy one and turned her attention on the book.

"Kaoru!" She heard her sister yelled, and the door flew opened. Once Misao saw Kenshin in the room, her gleeful face turned into a grimaced one. "What are you doing here?" She asked but not in a mean way. It was more like a flat tone.

"Misao, I already told you remember?" Kaoru reminded her. Misao made an oh before she headed out the door. She was probably embarrassed right now, but Kaoru can deal with her later.

They finally highlighted their dialogues, and they were ready to begin. Kenshin, purposely, went in front of Kaoru. Kaoru, supposedly, got mad and pushed him out of the line.

"Sir, please don't cut in me! I have errands to finish in less than a ten minutes. I can not afford someone like you to get me in trouble!" Kaoru recited from the book. Kenshin gave her a smirk, which made Kaoru's blood boil. "Y-Y-Don't send me that look! It's the disgusting!" She yelled with passion.

"Do you not know who I am?" Kenshin's voice, this time, angry. The smirk that was once on his face turned into a scowled. "I'm Romeo, the prince of-"

"Yeah, Yeah!" Kaoru interrupted him. "Y-You aren't the prince of M-Mangoes?" She cocked her head towards the book to see if the words weren't messing with her mind.

"Kaoru, its Montagues, not mangoes…Let's repeat it from the start!" Kenshin said out loud. It was like that the almost the whole evening until they were called to go down to the kitchen. "Thank Ms. Kamiya for allowing me to stay here," Kenshin said with unusually polite tone. Kaoru's mother just smiled at him before she asked him if he wanted any meatballs or shrimps in his noodle soup.

Kaoru turned on the T.V. and froze at her spot. She gulped nervously at the monster that was on the news. The monster was in disguise, but she can see the eyes of his. The eyes weren't what humans would have.

"Koishii, where is the Soul of Blades?" The monster asked, and Kaoru backed up. She closed her eyes for a second and opened them up. The monster wasn't even on T.V. It was just a lady talking about this week's weather. The monster on T.V. and the message seemed real. Kaoru felt her legs getting weaker, but she tried her best to ignore it. When she walked in the kitchen, she heard and saw that Kenshin and Shishio were talking the school's football team.

Misao quickly tried to eat her noodles really quickly, and Kaoru knew why. It was really obvious, wasn't it? She was going to see her one and beloved, Aoshi. Sometimes, just seeing Misao in love made Kaoru sick to her stomach.

The phone ranged all the suddenly, and Kaoru made a grabbed for it. "Hello? This is the Kamiya's residence." There a little moment of silence, and Kaoru was about to hang up until someone finally spoke up.

"Is Saya there?" Kaoru couldn't help but cock her head.

"Um…Who would this be?" There was another silence for a few seconds.

"This is Seta Sojiro," she heard the boy squeaked.

"Wait is the Seta Sojiro? Oh sorry! I forgot to introduce myself. Well, why would I? Anyway, I'm here." Kaoru said.

"Saya?" Sojiro asked. Kaoru was about to nodded, but she then remembered that she was talking on the phone.

"Yes, I'm here," Kaoru spoke lower and softer. She could feel Kenshin just staring at her, probably wondering what's going on. "What do you want?"

Sojiro let out a sigh of relief on the other line. "Saya, I got some really good news! You are starring in the new drama series, Dark Moon! The part you got is: Natsu, the actress leading role! The manager wants to see everyone at this place," he informed. "So you probably might need to write this down…"

Kaoru told him to hold on and softly put the phone on something. She rushed over a desk drawer and pulled out a pen and a paper. After that, Kaoru went back to the phone and held the phone between her head and shoulder. "What's the address?" Sojiro told her the address slowly and repeated the address once more to see if she got it. They both hanged up, and Kaoru stuffed the paper in her pocket. When she finally sat down the paper, she couldn't help but laugh in joy. She's got a leading role for the first time! Not the antagonist leading role, but the protagonist leading role!

"What's up with her?" Kenshin whispered over to Shishio. Her brother took a look at her before he whispered back. Kenshin frowned and let out an okay before he resumed eating his noodle.

Her mother came out inside and had another bowl her hands. She put the noodles in front of Kaoru and left to go get another bowl. "Mom!" Ms. Kamiya took a look at her daughter, who was awfully excited right now. "I got some great news, but I can't say it right here…" Ms. Kamiya finally catch up to what she was saying and sent her a wink.

"You can tell me later, okay?" The mom said sweetly before she went outside.

The two teens were finally done and headed back upstairs, once again, to rehearse. "Kaoru, what happened to your foot?" Kenshin asked out of the blue.

"I stepped into a glass shard. It's no big deal…" Kaoru winced again when she put too much pressure on the little foot.

"Stupid," she could hear Kenshin muttered under her breath.

"What'd you say?" Kaoru snapped at him angrily.

"Nothing," he said with a smirk that made Kaoru's blood boil. "How long have you had the bandage on?"

"Since yesterday…" Kaoru said with a grumble.

"You probably want to redress it. I'll go downstairs to see if you guys got any-"

"I have some in that drawer over there," the girl pointed. Kenshin nodded and head over to the drawer she was talking about. With one tug, there was a box filled with bandages, and Kenshin firmly grabbed one. "Hey Kenshin, why are you suddenly just caring?" He looked over to her and fell his eyes to her glasses. "Usually, you would pick on me, laugh at me like I'm the biggest idiot in the school, and get angry with me all the time…." Kaoru's voice trailed off softly.

Kenshin gave no reply to her and tugged on the bandage that was around her foot. He felt Kaoru tensed a little and looked at her. Suddenly he felt something triggering him, and he had the urge of reaching out to her glasses. However, Kenshin restricted himself to do that. Everyone wanted to know how she looked like. The glasses were too thick and too big on her face. The lenses were like sunglasses lens, but it was too dark to see through.

The old bandage was finally off, and Kenshin examined the wound. He wasn't too bad, but it was pretty ugly. The wound was starting to get purple, and Kenshin started dressing the foot.

"There it's all finished…" Kenshin said and took a look at Karou's foot more time. Then he lifted his face up to her face and felt something burning in him furiously. I hate those glasses! I want to see how she really looks like! Yahiko said something that made me confused. She was out of my league? That was stupid because Kaoru is a nerd. It should have been the other way around!

"Kenshin, if you dare take my glasses off, I will swear I will break bones!" The girl threatens him.

"It's like you read my mind!" He said with a fake lively tone to it. "But I could care less about the threat. You cannot threaten me because if you do, you will get an F on the project." His voice was very cold, and Kenshin knew that it ran through her spine like poison. All the sudden, the boy reached out to Kaoru pinned her down to the floor. What am I doing! The only thing on his mind was the glasses. He knew he felt this chi at the restaurant and yesterday.

"Kenshin, hands off of me!" Kaoru struggle to get away from him, but Kenshin had a very strong hold of her. There were little specks of amber in his lavender eyes, and the eyes seem to be manipulating her. His hands were softly touching her cheeks and ran up to where the glass was. "K-Kenshin, please let go of me!" She demanded, voice shaking.

"It's time for those glasses to be off now. I finally won't be confused by three similar chi!" Kenshin tugged the glasses off, and his eyes rise in shock.

Thank you guys for reviewing! Yes I know this isn't a good chapter much, but it shows their daily life.

Sorry for the cliffhanger out the end, and no...she doesn't get revealed yet. Just to let you know...

Kaoru's sanity is not going to go so well now since she just saw a monster on T.V. (She has nightmares)

Kenshin's chi thing is really expert level, but Kaoru and her family put barrier (or an aura protection spell) around them so people wouldn't notice they are sorceress.

Yes, Sojiro is a really big movie star. Kaoru is too but she doesn't get any actress leading role. She's always known for getting the "demonic" or "crazy"role, but people still love her anyway.

Dark Moon Drama series was taken from Skip Beat. That parts seems kind of "not important" but it is later on.

Well thanks for reading :]
