Rurouni Kenshin Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Travel Through Time ❯ Why Me? ( Chapter 6 )

"What's wrong with her? She's been acting strange ever since that man came here, or should I say ever since she saw him. I must follow her and make sure he doesn't try and pull anything while I'm gone. But I should just stay here I'm sure she won't do anything after all she's only just met him." Making up his mind he sat on the steps waiting for her return.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why?

Sesshomaru lied against a tree having his fluffy comfort around him. He looked over into the water watching as the sun reflected off and danced around his face.

"This has become more serious than I thought. All I wanted was to figure out where I was then going to leave but I never excepted to stay here."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kaoru hid behind a bush so that he wouldn't notice her.

"He's so beautiful. Why do I feel like I've known him forever. But it's a good feeling right?" Lost in her thoughts she didn't notice the voice that was speaking to her.

"Come Kaoru." Sesshomaru spoke knowing by her scent that it was her.

Just then Kaoru jumped up not knowing exactly how he knew she was there she was sure she had hid herself very good and didn't remember making any noise. But there was no use of hiding anymore since he knew it was here already.

She stood up and walked out of the bushes. "Yes?" She asked.

He put a hand down beside him patting the place where she would sit.

Blushing a little she walked over and sat beside him on the fluffy as well. "What is this?" She questioned, touching the fluff around and under her.

"It's my Fluffy." As he liked to call it.

"Fluffy." She whispered now rubbing her face on the soft material.

"Kaoru."

"Hmmm?" She still kept her face in the fluff not realizing he was calling her by her name and not using miss or dono.

"Tell me about this place I now am at." He said while looking up into the clear sky.

Pulling her face away she answered simple. "This place? Well it's Tokyo about the year 1864 (I don't remember the year so I'll just make up one.) and the revolution is now over, well that's what I hope but someone's always coming around and making trouble. Well at least I have Kenshin around to protect me."

"Wait, that man who came out earlier was that him? And he protects you with a reverse blade, I noticed it when I caught it in my hand because no blood drew." Now Sesshomaru was getting very interested in this time and her guardian Kenshin.

"Well yes, and he does use a reverse blade. It all happened ten years ago when he worked for the Meji government and to make a long story short he protected Japan from everybody who tried to destroy it. But when he tried to protect his once wife that was taken he killed her along with the man. He said she had sacrificed herself or he had selfishly did it but I think it was an accident and he doesn't want to admit it. Any way he decided to give up fighting and left, his master gave him that sword and didn't know what Kenshin would do with it but he wondered for ten years and found that he should keep protecting people and Japan only not killing. And ever since he's been a legend and lives with me." Kaoru knew Sesshomaru was really interested so she tried to add as much details as she could.

"Very interesting. But you must tell me now why you have taken me in." He looked over at her which she now had a tint of red over her cheeks.

"Umm…ok. I guess I just wanted to be nice. You didn't seem like you were in trouble or helpless, but confused so you could say I let you stay because I think you need to get your head cleared up." She gave him a half smile.
