Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin. Would you really expect me to own Kenshin? I would destroy the work of arts with my hands because I suck at it, okay? ]: I wish I was talented to own them though...


Kaoru and Kenshin looked at each other in fear. "W-What are you guys doing?" Shishio yelled. He was in the middle of the doorway, and he was mistaken them for doing something else. "O-OMG, Kenshin! My sister is too young!" Her brother pushed Kenshin out the way, and he dropped the glasses. Kaoru realized it and made a grabbed for the glasses.

"B-Brother! It's not what you think!" Kaoru stuttered. Shishio looked over her in disappointment.

"Yes, I see. You know what I saw? I saw my friend pinning you to the floor, and you-Oh! I can't even speak of this! Just be glad I'm not telling Mom, okay!" With that, Shishio stomped out of her room. It left the couple speechless.

"S-Sorry for my brother…He's really over protective of me…" Kaoru mumbled softly.

"I would never do that with you," Kenshin said with disgust. "But I would responded the same if you were my sister. Well, I should get going now…" He lifted himself off the floor and was about to go over to the balcony when Kaoru yelled,

"Can't you just stay here a little bit?" Kenshin looked back at her in shock and saw her face all flushed. "D-Don't flatter yourself, okay? I-I just want to get the project done!" Her voice was little shaky, and Kaoru turned her back afterwards.

Why did I do that? Kaoru, you are getting yourself a load of trouble now! He's a vampire, for God's sake! He's going to suck the blood out of you! She laid her head into her hands and started to whimper a little.

"Yo, Kaoru. Are you o-?"

"Yeah I'm fine, and don't go yo me okay!" She snapped at him. The girl turned around and saw the redhead smiling down on her.

"Okay," he said with his eyes closed and picked up the book to start rehearsing again.


A few houses away, there was two people sitting on the roof top. One person had binoculars hung over his neck, while the other just sat there casually. "Oh man. Our little vampire is crushing on a nerd," Cho hissed.

"I don't know why Katsura-I mean-Boss wants us to spy on the little kid," Kamatari said as he looked at his nails.

"I guess he wants to see what's he doing, but all I see is him reading out a book and acting with the nerd. Oh wait! They went out of the room!" Cho reported. Then, Kamatari sighed tiredly.

"Why don't we just head back to the place and tell Boss that the boy is just doing his project?" Kamatari suggested. However, Cho didn't agree.

"I have a dream, and that dream is to get the Boss to notice my skills and to report Master so he can promote me. So I'm not going to let some slacker ruin that dream!"

"That is such a stupid dream!" Kamatari snickered. "My dream is way better than your's and you know it!" Cho waited for the man to continue. "My dream was to always get the young vampire, Kenshin or Battousai, to be in loved…"

"Stupid…" Cho hissed under his breath. "He is in love!" Kamatari's eyes popped out of his head and his mouth was hanged open.

"W-What? K-Kenshin is in love?" The man asked in amazement. Cho just rolled his eyes in disbelief.

"I just said that he was crushing on a nerd," Cho reminded him. However, the guy's word didn't reach to his partner's ear. The partner daydreaming was something that Cho didn't even want to know. "Do you want to leave now or not?" Cho asked.

"Who said about leaving?" Cho was about to say something but dropped it. It wasn't really worth arguing with this guy. He didn't even know why Master hired that dude! [Side note: Katsura is the leader for the Choshu, but the Master is the one that is the real boss. Confusing right? Katsura is the leader for Choshu, and his boss is the Master who is the actually boss.]

"I wondered if Hiko-I mean-Master knows about this! Oh, Boss has to know too!" Kamatari exclaimed.

"Now why would they need to know Kenshin is in love?" Cho questioned the partner suspiciously.

"Kenshin's brother is Katsura, and Hiko is the father of both kids…" Kamatari revealed. It left Cho silence. The guy finally broke the silence in the air and put his binoculars back on.

"Holy crap!" Cho screamed. Kamatari looked over to him with concerns.

"What happened?" Cho nudged the guy to put his binoculars on as well. When the man put it on, he was left speechless and shock. "What the hell!" Kamatari almost yelled, but Cho cupped his mouth. "He's going to do it! He's going to do it! He's going to do it! Oh he's going to do it!" Kamatari repeated countless of times due to the shock. "No! If Master and Boss found out about this, I don't want to know what happens next!" He admitted, and Cho couldn't help but agreed.

"I just can't believe it. The guy is going to-," he swallowed the words down his throat. "We should just go back now and tell the Master and Boss that he's just studying. And Kamatari, if you say anything else more than that, we are going to get killed by Kenshin!" His partner nodded, and they both gathered all their stuffs before flying away.


"You finally got it, Kaoru!" Kenshin exclaimed at the girl. She was panting really hard and fell onto the floor.

"I can't take it anymore!" She said with a big breath. "It's too much! The words are so hard to memorize!"

"You did well for the first day." He flashed a smile. "Well, I'm going to leave from here, so bye." Kenshin waved before he headed out the balcony.

"Bye," Kaoru said softly as she watched him leave.


The young teen singer found herself on the stage. The lights were dimmed, and there was no audience crowd. She looked around anxiously, wondering what's going on. Suddenly, the young girl heard something growling and snarling behind her. She slowly turned around and started shrieking.

The monster lunged at Kaoru, and Kaoru easily block it with her magic. "G-Get away from me or else I will destroy you with my powers!" She yelled, but it came out really shaky.

"You can't destroy me!" The monster said in a deep voice. A shiver ran through her spines, and Kaoru stood even more so she would avoid collapsing. "I need you to seek out the Soul of Blades for me, Kichona." Kaoru back away when the monster took a step towards her.

"N-No! I will never help you find it!" Kaoru yelled as her hands started collecting the positive and negatives charges in the air. The lightning started to crackle around her hand when it was finally complete. She pretended that hand was a gun and aim towards the creature. "If you dare make me follow your orders, you are going to die at that spot!"

The monster snickered. "You are a very good taste in humor, girl! However, your spell will not work against me!" He grabbed Kaoru and threw her across the room. "You will help me find the Soul of Blades, whether you like it or not."

Kaoru's eyes snapped open, and she sat straight up. The girl realized she was panting hard, and Kaoru slide her fingers through her hair. It was really dark outside, so Kaoru took a glance at the clock. 4:40 a.m., it read.

She opened the door that leads her to her balcony. Then, Kaoru sat on one of the chairs and stared at the sky that was nearly light, but it was pretty dark still. Somehow, every time she looked at the sky, it was never seem to end or begin. It wasn't like a person's life, and Kaoru wished her life was like the sky. There was no beginning or end; it was just endless.


"Ahhh!" The person screamed as Kenshin finished him off with an attack. He flicked the blood off of his sword and carefully placed it back into his sheath. The smell of death started hovering in the air, and Kenshin spit due to the disgust of it, the smell.

"Nice work, Kenshin," Cho said as he approached to the young vampires. He inhaled deeply in the air, loving the smell of death. Saito was walking over there too, but he was silence for the whole entire time.

"Kenshin, did you gathered anything about the monsters' wanting?" The man asked as he pulled a cigarette. He lit it and placed it over his mouth. Sparks flew, looking like min-fireworks. The young boy just stared at the man he had just killed.

"No, but I do know where to get the answer from…" Kenshin said as he lifted his eyes away from the dead man. "Boss told me to keep an eye on that person because the monster will try to make an attempt to attack her."

Saito just nodded and started heading back. Cho and Kenshin, then, followed along with Saito until they reached in front of place that read: Camelot (a dance club located somewhere in Japan). Cho opened the door and music started blaring in their ears.

As they stepped in farther in the hallway, they could see laser lights flashing everywhere. People were dancing, having a good time, as if they never expected three vampires in the club or more. "Foolish," Saito snickered when a girl bumped into him. She tensed up a little and walked away as fast as she could. Suddenly the BigBang's song, Number 1, started playing.

I'll be ready in an hour, jump in the shower

Crisp and clean now I got the power

Blasting music from my speakers

T-shirts fresh, brand new sneakers

People started singing along with the song while dancing like there was no tomorrow. Cho grinned at a girl that walked past by. She was very attractive, even Saito agreed. "Hey Saito, no drooling over girls! You are already married! I wonder what Tokio would think about this!" He snickered loudly, and a couple of people turned around with an irritated face on.

The two men and boy took the elevator that lead up to the third floor. When they got out of the elevator, people from the Choshu organization greeted them as they danced away. Kenshin spotted Katsura at a large table filled with couples of ladies and of course men.

"Boss!" Cho shouted through the large music as the three of them walked over to the table.

Katsura looked up and smiled calmly at the three in front of him. "Did you guys finish the job as always?" He asked with a glare towards Kenshin, still disappointed with his last assignment before.

"Yes, we did," Saito said as he blew some smoke out from the cigarette. He handed a couple of papers to their boss, and Katsura lifted one hand away from the lady next to him. He took the papers and scanned through it. The three saw that Katsura stopped and frown for a second before he moved on.

"Good job, guys. I'll give you the next assignments right now. This assignment, however, only involves Kenshin." The boss said. He gave Kenshin a look and saw that there was no emotion displayed on his face.

"Kenshin, you already know what it is. You'll have to track down Saya now and forget about that task that said to kill her. We'll need to know why the monsters and demons are coming after her…" The redhead bowed down before his brother and turned around to walk away. However, his brother ordered him to turn back around.

"Brother, you should relax and have a fun time in the club. I don't want you to over strain yourself-you know…" Katsura admitted. Kenshin closed his eyes for a second and walked away.

"Cho, you didn't report what Kenshin did during the even." The boss reminded him. Cho gulped nervously, remembering what he saw back there. He never thought the boy had it in him, but he wasn't so sure how the Boss will react. It was kind of terrifying to even think about Katsura's reaction.

"Oh he's just studying at some person's house!" Cho said as he patted his boss in the back. Katsura stared at the broom head person, not knowing what to say. He was acting too suspicious that it was noticeable! Only someone dumb enough wouldn't see that.

"Ah…The boy is working on the project I assigned to him in class." Saito smirked and was about to walk away when Katsura called after him.

"What's the project, Saito?" Katsura asked as he crossed his leg over the other. His arms spread over the couch, and his hand was touching one of his partners on the shoulder.

"I see you are enjoying yourself, Boss." Katsura grinned at Saito's statement, knowing that was true. "It's a book project that he has to do with an assigned project. They'll have to act out five important scenes in the book." Saito explained slowly enough where Katsura caught every word.

"I see…Is it a girl or a boy?"

"Girl. Her name is Kamiya Kaoru," the tall man replied. "May I leave now? Tokio might get frustrated at me for being late again." Saito didn't wait for the boss answer and left with silence. The boss couldn't help but smile and asked Cho for a seat. The man happily agreed and started hitting a conversation with a lady.


Cars were running around Tokyo as usual. Kaoru stared up at a tower. It wasn't just any tower; it was the Nexus Studio. The studio that will decide if Kaoru is really fitted for the leading role of the new drama series, Dark Moon. She took a deep breath and slowly stepped into the studio. When she laid foot, the smell of roses from the garden crossed her mind. A lady from the counter desk rushed over to her and led her to the elevators.

"Miss Saya, do you know which room you are in?" The lady asked politely. Kaoru nodded with a smile.

"Which floor will Room 201 be?"

"That will be on the fourteenth floor, Miss Saya. I will excuse myself now," the lady said as she bowed down and walked away. The door slowly closed, blocking her view on the first floor. The elevator was slowly pulled up, and Kaoru couldn't help but think about the monsters and demon that attacked. They wanted the Soul of Blades, and Kaoru is their golden key that can lead to find the ten blades. Each blade has powers that are destructible, and they were forged by the Devil himself. There were ten blades to complete the set of Soul of Blades.

The elevator door opened wide enough so Kaoru could get out. Once she was finally out of the elevator, she started walking around to find Room 201. Suddenly, Kenshin crossed her mind, and Kaoru furiously bit her lips. Why was she thinking about him at a time like this? But Kaoru knew the answer to that. The fear back at the concert when she saw his amber golden eyes bored into hers. The fear started tingling around her skin, and Kaoru reached for her arms. She rubbed it back and forth to get the fear off. He was Battousai; the guy was the same guy who made fun of her when they were in middle school. He made fun of her less in high school, but you still get the point.

The room was in front of her, blocked by an obstacle that they called door. Kaoru took a deep breath with her eyes close. She finally open the blue orbs and reached her hand out to the door knob. With a twist, the door was pulled back, letting Kaoru see the enormous room. There were bunch of peoples, and they weren't just people. They were celebrities, and some of those celebrities were back at the time ages when movies were the real classic (around the 1990s). Kaoru assumed they were playing the older characters, like the parents or teachers.

There was a platform, and bunch of devices were set up, such as speakers and microphones. A man that was slightly taller than Kaoru stood on the platform and was talking to several people. She caught Sojiro coming towards her way and greeted him.

"There is no need to formal Saya. It's not a party to the prince's birthday-you know," Sojiro said with a smile. Kaoru helplessly smiled back, finally letting her shoulder relaxes. She agreed she was being formal. Maybe too formal to the point it looks like she was at a royal party.

"You are right, Sojiro! What's up? It's been so long since we starred in a movie together." The boy nodded and laughed suddenly.

"You are making me sound so old. I stared in quite a lot of movies. So many movies I don't even remember being in," his laugh grew louder. "So Saya, do you have a clue what Dark Moon is about?"

Kaoru thought for a moment and shook her head. "The only thing you told me is that, I got chosen to play the part of the leading role actress. I didn't even audition for the movie, but I got chosen still!"

"Saya, you do have to remember that the director still has to see you do a performance before you are officially in the drama series." Sojiro reminded her, and Kaoru blushed in embarrassment.

"S-Sorry, I'm just so nervous and excited. Before I never played a leading actress role! I never did! All I played was the villain roles and that was it." Kaoru explained with a stuttered. "Unlike me, Sojiro, you always got the leading role ever since you first entered celebrity business. You earned a good hit reputation with the girls ever since." The girl said with a chuckled. "I guess you got the leading role to this movie too?" She assumed and saw Sojiro's face darkened.

"Hello everybody!" A person's voice boomed from the speakers. Everyone's attention was on the stage. There was man holding the microphone. People stared in shock due to their surprise. It was Sadojima Hōji; one of the greatest film director and producer in Japan. "I'm glad you celebrities took your time to visit the studio and to be here. Now, I know you guys are here because you have heard of the new drama series that I'm producing. The title of the drama series is called, Dark Moon. It has some fantasy and supernatural feeling to it, but I promised you guys it will be a hit!"

The celebrities looked at each other, filled with amazement. The director has only announced the genre theme, yet people were already hooked up. It seemed like Hoji was pleased with the looks on their face and continued on.

"It also how some romance to it, but we can get onto that later on. Anyway here is the story to Dark Moon. Now, will anybody dim the lights please?" The director asked. Some person obeyed the ordered, and the lights were dimmed. A projector suddenly popped up behind the director, showing the title logo to the movie. The Dark Moon logo was in white, outlined in black, but between the Dark and Moon was a crescent moon. It was a light velvet color that sparkled to give the moon effect. In the background picture, the sky was mix with black and purple. Some stars were in the background, giving the impression of a dark night. It seemed like it took place in a forest with several mountains.

"Now if you guys come up here, you can follow along the story that is part of the series." With that said, people started rushing over, making a line to get the page. When the people finally got the pages, they all took seats.

"The story takes place in modern time. A girl name Rin is a girl who loves to study and wants to get a good education. A guy name Kaito is a guy who is very popular around school. Kaito is a new student, and he was already taken by the popular people. Rin noticed that at times Kaito stares at her. One day, she discovers that he is a demon and that she is a sorceress. They both collide together, not knowing what will happen."

It was a pretty simple storyline, but the cast knew that it was just ten percent of the story. This director was also known as the twister. He always makes stories that are simple, but once you look at it at his way of art filming and stories, you will never think the same about it. The stories he always give are just a twister to make things that aren't in the film. It's very confusing, but once you see, you will understand his way of art.

"Kaoru, Sojiro! I need you both to come over here!" Hoji called as he grabbed two books of script. When they both made it the stage, Hoji handed them the book and told them to start on page 18. The couple obeyed his orders and flipped the page.


He slowly opened his eyes, only finding the ceiling above. His red flaming hair was untied, releasing the hair in every direction. Kenshin slowly stood up from his bed and yawned tiredly. It was around morning. From his window view, he saw the sun slowly rising up with the pale blue sky changing colors.

As Kenshin stood up and walked down the stairs, he could hear his old man laughing out loud. A lady's voice collided with his laughter, making the man chuckling now. The lady and man looked towards the sleepy redhead, greeting their son with a good morning.

"Good morning, Mom, Dad." Kenshin said tiredly as he reached over to the refrigerator. His hand reached for a sprite and started drinking out of it. When his lips finally depart from the can, he let out a pleased sigh. The boy jumped a seat next to his mother and laid his head on the table.

"Kenshin!" His mother scolded. "Don't put your head on the table!" She reached for her son's red hair and pulled on it.

"Sorry Mom," the boy said, "I'm just tired from killing those-." His voice drifted off in a drowse, and Kenshin's head immediately fell back onto the table.

"Muo! Kenshin, you baka!" The mother yelled and slapped him hard on the head. "That boy never listens to me!" She muttered grumpily under her breath. Her husband couldn't help but chuckled.

"Honey, you have to understand that he can't go to sleep right away. Our baka is always killing people every night. You have to understand that he's tired from it, and that he can't fall asleep right away." Hiko, the husband, explained. He knew Kenshin's life right now. He once had to do the same as well, but the son of his can get use to it.

Kyoko, the mother of Kenshin, simply nodded. She knew that it wasn't easy killing hundreds of people every night. You would have to run around night, finding the target, and slay one by one. The blood that stains the sword grows thicker, and the smell of blood will remain on you until you washed it off thoroughly. "I understand, Hiko…"


Kenshin looked at the house one last time before he hopped in his car. All he needed to do was find that celebrity and threaten her again. The girl was too stubborn to be a star, and the redhead didn't understand why people loved her. She was just like any stars but with eyes that are like precious jewels. Kenshin stopped for a moment and growled at himself for thinking like that.

He droved right in front of his best friend's house and hopped out. The guy spotted Sanosuke arguing with a cat, and Kenshin couldn't help but snickered. "Having a hard time with the new cat?" His voice boomed through Sano's ear. Sanosuke quickly turned around, finding his friend in a navy blue hoodie.

"Now what makes you think I'm having a-woah!" Sanosuke winced as the cat gave a long gash on his nose. "Aww man! Megumi isn't going to love this face!" He wailed and kicked the cat out of his front porch. "Stupid cat!" He muttered under his breath and nudged his friend to come inside the house.

"So Kenshin, what are you doing over here?" The friend questioned as he tossed the redhead a drink.

"I need you to help me, Sano. What would you do if I told you something that I shouldn't let you know?" His voice loud. There was no hint of nervous in his voice; instead, there was courageous in it.

"What are you talk about, Kenshin?" Sanosuke asked with an eyebrow raised in confusion. Whatever this was leading to, he didn't like it. The tension from Kenshin's voice was very unusual, but as his best friend, Sanosuke needed to listen to him.

"I'm Battousai, and I'm not human. I'm a vampire," Kenshin said bluntly. He gained a hanging mouth from his friend and a shocking expression. "Sanosuke, you need to listen why I'm doing this. And I promise you that it isn't what you think," he added.

Sanosuke nodded slightly and was waiting to hear Kenshin out more. Sure the shock overwhelmed him, but it will not change the fact that Kenshin was his best friend. It didn't really matter to him if Kenshin was a demon nightmare to children. The only thing matter was he hears his friend out to the truth on why he's doing this.

When his friend explained everything, Sanosuke just nodded. He never thought his best friend tried to kill him before they were friends! It was almost 4-5 years since then, and it was almost time to head to college.

"Sanosuke, do you follow Saya on twitter? Well…if she has one, but do you?" Kenshin demanded. It took Sanosuke for a moment to think and he then answered yes. "Go check on it now!" Kenshin urged his friend as Sanosuke grabbed his laptop off the counter table. With each tap, a new letter appeared and the guy simply clicks entered.

He scrolled up and down, trying to find Saya's twitter page. Once he found it, the rooster boy simply clicked it. Kenshin carefully watched his friend's expression and flinched back when his friend squealed in excitement.

"Saya is starring in a new drama series! I got to call Megumi and Misao!" Sano let out another squeal and abruptly stopped when Kenshin's glare landed on him. "Oh right…Um…Saya is auditioning for the new series, Dark Moon. The Dark Moon series is held under Nexus Studio. The studio is located in downtown, so I know where it is. I can take you over there if you want to." Sanosuke offered.

"Thanks Bro!" Kenshin said as they both did a jock handshake. With that said, they both went in Kenshin's car. The redhead offered the rooster his key to the car, and Sanosuke simply took it. Before he started the engine, Sanosuke wanted to say something.

"Kenshin, recently you hadn't been yourself." Sano admitted. Kenshin turned towards him in surprise. Shamed was written all over his face for some strange reason. "What happened to the guy that always made fun of other people in a jokester way? What happened to the guy that is always happy? What happened to the guy that loves to flirt with the girls? And what happened to you, Kenshin?" Sanosuke asked. He saw his friend's face darkening for a moment and wished he could punch himself.

"This month has been really busy, so I can't allow myself to drop my guard too low. Too low to the point where I am my usual self. I can't take that risk since it will give the monsters the chance to kill the civilians," His friend answered seriously. First, Sanosuke wanted to ask more questions, but he knew that it would stress his friend out even more.

Sanosuke, then, started the car and headed towards downtown of Tokyo. The whole trip was silent, and Sanosuke felt the tension around the car. It was so unusual for Kenshin to be like this. Battousai was around when they were either thirteenth or fourteenth, and Sanosuke knew Kenshin around that time. He was never this stress out this much, which must meant that the closer to finding out about the monsters' wanting, the more work it takes.

The car finally stopped in front of a building. It was a very tall building, and you could spot an N logo (with dragon printings) on there. It would take a fool to not know this was the Nexus Studio.

"What are you going to do, Kenshin?"

"I don't know, but I'll have to sneak in there." Suddenly Kenshin found his rooster friend smirking.

"Leave that too me, my brother," Sanosuke said mischievously. The redhead finally caught on and helplessly smiled wickedly.

"Of course I will, brother…" The two gave each other an original high-five before they proceed to their wicked plan.
