For a Favor

By Charmed Wolf

My disclaimer is that I still don't own the cast of Rurouni Kenshin, I'm just barrowing them for this fanfic. They will remain with their respected creators, so DON'T SUE ME!!

Misao was enjoying the kisses Aoshi was giving her, Aoshi went to his room after a night of pleasure with her. 'I never had the kisses like he gave me!' Misao though falling asleep smiling thinking of that night; and by her was the rose Aoshi used to trace her jawline very softly.

Aoshi knew it was going to be the last day for him to be home with Misao, he laid in his coffin asleep thinking about the night he had with Misao. "Aoshi, it's time to awake," Naila said knowing that Aoshi was already packed and ready to go the meeting, he got up and got dressed to be ready for what may come up. Naila told the Council of what Aoshi did as a mortal and now as a vampire; one of the Council memebers was intrigued with Aoshi's and his exploits. "I can't believe that he had beaten Orius just like that, Alliston," Ares said to his chief, Alliston coulding believe the report either.

If the message that Aoshi sent them with Naila held true, Aoshi was actually coming to the meeting of the Council. "Naila, you said that he'd be here," Alliston said as Aoshi appeared into the doorway, the vampire council member was suprised to see Aoshi standing there. Naila was right when he was standing right there; the young vampiress smiled presenting Aoshi to the Council. 'So this is the Council of the Vampires,' Aoshi thought being viewed the Great Vampire Council, he sat his things down to relax his hand from carrying his things along with his twin kodachi. Celeste was impressed to see how muscular Aoshi was; the Vampire Council were impressed with Aoshi just being there that wanted to meet other vampires. "My, my, so this is the man you talking about," Celeste said getting her assissant to find a room for Aoshi for the two nights he was going to be there, she saw Aoshi sitting in his room in a meditative state and wondered what he was doing in that state.

It was getting close to the time to find a victim to feed on; Aoshi was hoping that the Council would give him a test to see if he's worthy to join the Great Vampire Council. "Celeste, before we let him join, we have to see if he's worthy to join Signa Kai," Alliston said when the Great Council was attacked by the vampire hunters, these vampire hunters were jerks because they claim to be the best.

It was at then, Aoshi rushed back to grab his kodachi, Celest was wondered what Aoshi was doing heading back to his room for. 'May be he's trying to prove himself worthy by protecting us all just by himself,' Celeste thought seeing two blades heading to the vampire hunters, Aoshi did his best to hold the vampire hunters until an arrow bolt came at him entering his side. Alliston had been surprised when Aoshi stopped the vampire hunters in a risk of one's own life; Aoshi collapsed to the ground growling in pain graspping at his side. "For such a vampire willing to risk his life, you take the most risk to take on those vampire hunters," Alliston said going to Aoshi to help him up off the ground, it look like that Aoshi was going to need some attention to that side.

Ares removed the bolt from Aoshi's side causing pain with Aoshi; he noticed no emotion on Aoshi's face after the arrow bolt was removed from the side. "I suppose that wasn't what your chief hadn't in mind," Aoshi said getting his side bandaged, thankfully the arrowhead wasn't silver coated into the side burning the skin as it entered. Ares just shook his head finishing bandaging Aoshi's right side, the vampiress, Celeste; came in with a new tunic for Aoshi to wear now. "Alliston wanted you to have this and to offer you his welcome to the Signa Kai Council, Aoshi," Celeste said laying the tunic next to Aoshi, he risked his life to join the Council. Aoshi offered a small and yet genuine smile looking at the tunic he was given; Alliston said that he was quiet strong for a mere flegedling.

'Tomorrow, i will have to return to Japan and to Misao and the others,' Aoshi thought as he sat sewing up the hole the arrow bolt made, then his mind went to that night he had with his Misao.

Flashback

Misao was scooped up into Aoshi's ever strong arms and taken upstairs; like a princess in a Western fairy tale with her prince. "Aoshi, what are you going to do with me?" Misao asked looking into Aoshi's icy blue eyes, she heard stories that vampires were very romantic people. It was true when she was laid on her futon with care; she felt him kissing her very carefully with a rose down her jawline. "It's just something that neither you or i will forget, Misao-hime," Aoshi said pressing his lips against her jawline with the rose to her neck, Misao could only smile with Aoshi kissing on her jawline going down to her neck with the rose traveling down her chest.

Aoshi had given Misao a night to remember for the time to come; he knew he loved her and knew why he loved her so much. "I wasn't about to lose you to another vampire, Misao-hime," Aoshi said running the rose down her nose, Misao just giggled the rose tickled her nose.

Aoshi had a small and yet geniune smile hearing her giggle; Aoshi kissed down her jawline once more before getting up. "Aoshi, you treat me as if i'm a princess in one of those Western fairy tales," Misao said smiling at Aoshi's kisses, he just kissed by her ear getting ready to whisper into her ear. He didn't want to stop kissing on the girl he helped raise; there was something he hadn't realized before, he wouldn't be kissing Misao at all if he didn't care about her at all. "But, Misao-hime, to me, you are a very beautiful princess," Aoshi whispered into Misao's ear, he got up leaving the room after his Misao fell asleep quietly. He allowed himself a small but a geniune smile, Misao just made him smile like she wanted and promised Kenshin she'd do.

End of Flashback

Aoshi was walking to the Aoiya from the train station, Misao knew Aoshi was coming home that night. 'I wish I wasn't so nervous about seeing Aoshi again,' Misao thought to herself tiredly trying to moving from the post she was leaning on, then she started to see a familiar trench coat and twin kodachi. It was Aoshi that she was seeing walking up to her; she had missed him so much while he was gone for those two nights. "Missed me, Misao-hime?" Aoshi asked walking up to Misao, she smiled reaching a hand to his cheek. Everyone walked out to see that Aoshi was back; Okina knew something was different with Aoshi. "I guess it's about time that everyone knows what i am," Aoshi said taking his boots off before entering the Aoiya, everyone was there to welcome Aoshi back home.

Misao was just glad that her Aoshi was home, it was now that everyone was in the room and Aoshi was sitting in his beige yukata. "Everyone, there something that you should know that is different with me," Aoshi started looking at everyone with a calm look; Kaoru was wondering what Aoshi was trying to say. Kenshin, Saitou and Misao already knew what he was, Kenshin believed in vampires and Saitou saw Aoshi biting into a neck of a bandit trying get some money from Aoshi.

"Okina, you also know what I am," Aoshi said looking at the elder ninja, Okina only nodded to what Aoshi said. Kaoru was going ask Aoshi when just laid on her shoulder as Aoshi started to stand up, Aoshi just sighed as he stood up before continuing on. "I'm a vampire now, I have been a vampire for awhile, everyone," Aoshi finished quietly looking round, Kaoru was surprised to hear the fact that Aoshi is now a vampire. Misao stay by Aoshi because she knew that Aoshi was willing to protect her from any harm; Aoshi wished there was some way he could make Misao his bride.

"Misao-hime, can you stay here with me a moment?" Aoshi asked quietly looking away searching his pocket, Misao was wondering what Aoshi was doing until he produce a small box from the pocket. Inside was a beautiful ring engraved with Misao's name and a very lovely inscription for her, she was surprised to see Aoshi with presenting her a ring to her like that.

"My princess, my princess, you deserve to be happy," Aoshi said looking into Misao's eyes as he opening the box, he saw the smile on Misao's lips as the ring was taken from the box and slipped onto her finger. It was announced that Aoshi and Misao were going to be getting married; it made Misao very happy to be marrying Aoshi, whom she loved for a long time. 'It's a dream come true that I get to marry Aoshi,' Misao thought as a smile graced her lips, Aoshi was glad he loved Misao so very much and would never stop loving her no matter what happens between them.

Aoshi liked it when Misao smiled; to him, it made her even more beautiful than before when she wasn't smiling. "I love you, my Misao-hime," Aoshi said caressing her cheek with a gentle hand as he leaned forward to kiss her on the lips, to Misao, fireworks went off as sparks as Aoshi kissed her.

Saitou just smirked as Aoshi kissed Misao, Okina was glad now that Misao was finally getting married. "Aoshi, there is a wolf watching us," Misao said looking at Saitou from the corner of her eyes as he was watching the couple, Aoshi just looked at Saitou then back at his bride. Aoshi scooped Misao into his arm to take her to their room, they just wanted to be alone before they set a date.

"Aoshi, what's going on?" Misao asked as Aoshi laid her on her futon kissing her neck gently reaching up her waist to undo her obi of her kimono, Aoshi knew Misao looked rather cute in that kimono. It was his favorite as he took Misao out of her kimono, she started to undress Aoshi as he started to undo her breast bindings until both we're bare covered by the futon cover.
