The two assassins
Chapter 11: A baptism?
'Two days ago, I thought I was not going to be able to control myself, I wanted to kill her with my own hands, with this blood stained hands' Kenshin said and placed his hands in front of his face, the awful feeling of having someone so close and not be capable to kill because of the place, it really enraged him. He clenched his fists as tight as possible and shut his eyes close, he took a deep breath and then glanced at the fancy clock on the wall 3:00 pm.
'and I'm stuck in work' he said and sighed. The phone rang and the secretary announced him that it was Kaoru that was calling, he immediately answered the call.
"hello?" she said coyly "Are you busy?" she said when she heard a sigh on the other side of the phone.
"No, no" he quickly answered "I was lost in my mind, that's all" Kenshin replied
"Do you want me to call you later?" she asked
"No, it is pretty fine, I needed to hear you" he said sweetly.
"How sweet" she said "I was thinking that maybe we could go out to dinner"
'7 years ago on a day like these I had a dinner with her' he thought and his blood began to boil in anger.
"Kenshin are you there?" she asked worriedly, maybe he was not OK
"Yes, I'm sorry" he said calming himself down "To dinner?"
"If you don't want, we can go another day" she said and smiled
"No, I really want to go" he answered, his violet eyes were shinning bright
"Perfect" her eyes shone too, her smile was big and sincere.
"Then prepare yourself I'll be at home at 8:00" he said
"Okay; I'll be waiting for you" she said excitedly
"And I'll be dying till I see you"
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
"You should be watching them" said a man
"I'm really sorry, but I had an accident" answered the other
"Remember that it's your duty to keep an eye on them" "even if you're dying"
"I know, I'm sorry boss" he replied
"I expect a report within 2 days" said the Boss "It'll give you time to do it and to send it"
"Don't worry I will, and I call you to inform you that it has already been sent" he answered.
"I hope so" said the man.

She was standing in front of the window watching the people through it, her eyes where cloudy and dark; she was not the "happy" woman she was once, she had committed an uneraseable sin, she had marked her life forever.
Now Kenshin's father was dead, there was no one that could at least hold her tenderly.
Bill entered the room and embraced her from behind; she didn't turn around to see him. She knew that he already knew about her "visit" to Kenshin, yet he did'nt say a word.
"Do you think it's fair?" She asked casually, as if it was something so normal
"What?" he asked a bit surprised, but never raising his voice.
"It's something so low" she said sadly. She didn't want to mess it all again.
"I don't know what you're complaining a bout, you do this kind of stuffs all the time"
"But…." Maybe after all he was right, she didn't answer.
"Did you talk with her?"
"Yes, I did" she whispered
"And what did she say" he asked
"She's not quite sure" Tomoe said, a smile played on her face "I don't think she will do it"
"She can't refuse to do it now, I made a deal with her" he said and grinned evilly
"But there is a way to trick the contract" she said, his arm was pressing hard against her neck, threatening the delicate line of life.
"If you say a word to her…." he said and pressed her neck even harder, when he released her from his tight grip, she fell on the floor coughing desperately.
"I won't" she said breathlessly. He helped her to her feet.
"You really know what is the best for you" said Bill sarcastically.

Kaoru was taking a bubble bath, she had plenty of time to get ready, she was so exited about a romantic dinner with him. He was so gorgeous, that not even after six years she could believe that she was with him; it still was the same excitement.
She then remembered when he proposed to her, and the simple way he did it.
Flash back……….
"Will you quit?" she asked, they were havin a casual conversation on a private beach.
"To this?" he said and smiled at her. "I've been doing this since I was 10"
"Kill?" she said and watched him quizzically.
"yes" he answered coyly while his mind transported him to a certain date in the past.
"Why?
"I was left under Hiko's care" he said "And somehow I needed to let my pain go"
"I see" she said and caressed his cheek.
Something in him changed, his voice became low and his violet eyes were deeper
"Kaoru I…" he was not quite sure if she could accept him as a husband, but now he was really sure about her being the right one, since the day they met, he had fallen in love, two years had already passed, they had become a couple and tree years later he was determined to propose to her.
They were watching an amazing sunset, she really loved the ocean, somehow it always made her to remember her childhood.
He slowly took out a small box and then kneeled in front of her; she covered her face with her hands to hide her change of colors.
"Kaoru, I know I'm not the best man, nor the most patient or the most handsome but if you accept me as I am now, I promise that I'll be the best and the happiest man ever" he said and paused "Kaoru will you marry me?" Kaoru began to cry, she didn't know what to say, she loved that man with all her heart and words somehow couldn't go out from her mouth.
"I…I" she sobbed "I do, I do!" Kenshin's eyes began to shine incredibly, he didn't know what to do, he grabbed her by the hands and kissed them and then he placed the ring on her finger, she was crying know even harder.
End of flash back….
She smiled, just 2 months, two short months, and she'll be Mrs. Himura. Kaoru was so happy, everything was ready, her dress, the reception, the invitations, every single thing was perfectly done, there was nothing to worry about.
She was getting ready for the dinner, she was wearing a long strapless Ivory dress, the diamond earrings and necklace he had given her, she had a weird and beautiful coiffure, the color of her lips was like the sakura's , she looked beautiful, and she was hoping him to like her.
It was now 8:00 and he had arrived half an hour early 'a man should never make a lady wait' he said to himself. Kenshin was wearing a black tuxedo and the color really made his eyes to look even better.
He saw when she was coming down the stairs, his mouth almost touched the floor, she looked beautiful, she was the most sexy, pretty, gorgeous lady ever. He offered her his arm to help her, she blushed when she saw the way he looked at her.
15 minutes later they arrived to one of the finest restaurants, he had made a previous reservation on a private place where both could be alone. Both sat on the fancy table just staring at each other, kenshin then broke the silence.
"You look gorgeous" he said while grabbing her hand
"Thanks" she whispered
"I'm glad we're having a dinner together, alone" he said and looked into her eyes 'beautiful' he thought.
"Yes, our jobs absorb us" she said and giggled
"Sure thing" he said huskily. Minutes later a waitress arrived and both went silent, they ordered the food and then she left leaving them alone again.
"you know, things came back to normal" she said
"You mean…?" he said
"yes, I believe everything is alright now, don't you think?"
"I don't know" he said and looked away "The only thing I'm certain of is that I love you" his eyes were fixed on her. "do you?"
"With all my heart" she said
"Kaoru I wanna marry you as soon as possible, what if we marry the next month, not in two but one, coz I know it will be difficult to change the date"
"In one month?" she said breathlessly
"Yes" he assured
"Of course, the sooner the better" she said while managing to hold her tears to fall from her eyes.
"Kaoru, I wanna ask you something" he said
"Yes, what is it?" she asked and glanced at him worriedly
"About Misao" he said, his tone had change again
"Misao? What about her?"
"What is she doing here in the city?" he asked
"Well I don't know, probably on vacations or I don't know" she sighed
"Are you sure …?" he asked
"No I'm not" she said "Why?"
"It's just that I don't trust her anymore"
"why!"
"Did you forget what she did to you?"
"No, but she came back to me, and she ask me for forgiveness" she said "She really regrets what she did"
"How are you so sure?" he asked
"Kenshin, I really don't what to talk about this, this is not the time, nor the place"
"You're right, you're right" he said and sighed "let's talk about another thing"
"Alright" she laughed
"You look beautiful, when you laugh" she blushed
"That's not true" she said
"Yes, yes it is true" he said, his eyes turned amber, her chest was raising and falling, he looked so sexy.
"I need to go to the lady's" she said and stood up, it was going to be hard to control herself, and the worst of all they were on a public place.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
"More salad?" asked a random maid
"No thanks, Monique" Misao said "Please can all of you leave us for a moment" all the servants agreed and left the dinning room, Misao just spoke till the last one was now out of sight.
"What's the matter?" asked Aoshi. He took a sip of his brandy and then glanced at Misao
"I was thinking about yuki" Misao said.
"What about him?"
"Well, remember about "that"?" she said, her eyes were searching comfort in his.
"How could I forget" he said, his cold eyes reflected pain
"I made up my mind" she said "I will do it, there is no way back"
"Are you sure?" he asked "You know I'll always be with you"
"Thanks, but I'm sure now" she said
"What are you planning to do" he took another sip of his drink.
"I was thinking a bout Yuki's Baptism"
"Yuki's baptism?
" Yes, a baptism"
