Chapter 3: Kaoru's New Home
Battousai thought while he watched Kaoru still sleeping from the sleeping gas Fantasia had used on her. Meanwhile Fantasia was sitting on the stairs when another walked in. "Hello Aoshi have you come back so soon?" Fantasia said as she stood up from the stair she was on.
"Yes where is the Battousai?" He said with the same expression he always wore none. "He is in his room and wishes not to be disturbed." She said while walking down the stairs and walking past him. She stopped walking and turned around and said "oh and Aoshi I mean he doesn't want to be disturbed so don't take it upon yourself to go and see him anyway okay."
"I will see the Battousai if I want and you won't stop me." He said while he started up the steps. "I can stop you and I will if I have to and besides don't you have better things to do?" Fantasia said while pulling out some of her sleeping gas that she had used on Kaoru. Aoshi turned around and said "don't even try and use it. You may be able to use it on humans but it won't work with me."
Fantasia stopped and said "you can't bother the Battousai he has a guest and he has asked that no one disturb him." Aoshi kept walking until he was stopped by someone blocking his way. "Now listen to the little neko. She knows what she is talking about." Aoshi said " you are also going to stop me from seeing the Battousai are you." The man said "yes I am because he said he didn't want to be bothered by anyone and everyone is to respect his wishes.
"Sano it is all right he can see me in the kitchen." Sano turned around to see the Battousai standing right behind him. "Thank you Fantasia for keeping anyone from bothering me you may go away now." Battousai said as he looked down at the girl. "Your welcome Battousai but I was going the kitchen anyway. I was going to get something to drink and then I was going back to my room." Fantasia said walking off.
Battousai smirked and said "she really is like a neko sometimes." Aoshi looked at him and said "Battousai she said you had a guest anyone I should know of?" "Yes I will tell you about my guest but not right now." Battousai said as he walked down the stairs followed by Aoshi and Sanosuke. They walked to the kitchen and when they got there they saw Fantasia on the phone.
"Who is it?" Battousai questioned Fantasia while she was still talking. "It is Kamilia she sounds upset so after I am done talking to her I am going over there to see her. Anything you would like me to get while I am there?" Fantasia said still listening to her Kamilia talk. Battousai said "yes I would like you to pick up some of Kaoru's things while you are there and just so you will not have to carry it on your own Aoshi will accompany you."
Aoshi looked at the Battousai and said "yes Battousai." "No way mister ice is coming with me I can't believe this Battousai I would much prefer the Rooster Head than the stiff man!" Fantasia said in protest. Battousai looked at her and said "that is the way I want it Aoshi will go with you and I will have no more complaints. Besides Sano will be doing something else for me." "What am I going to do while they are off seeing her sister and getting your human girl her stuff?" Sanosuke said wondering what Battousai had in mind.
"You will go and see Megumi tell her we need her here to see if Fantasia sleeping gas had any affect on her." Battousai as he sat down in one of the black chairs around the table. "All-right Battousai I will go and see the Kitsune if you really want me to." Sanosuke said walking off just as Fantasia was getting off the phone. Battousai looked at him just before he walked out the kitchen door and said "Sanosuke don't make her angry with you or she may not come and looked at the girl but if it is for me she probably will."
"Yes Battousai but Battousai I can't promise I won't make her angry." Sanosuke said walking out of the Kitchen. "He just doesn't listen sometimes." Battousai said looking over at Fantasia as if waiting for her to say something. "It goes in one ear and out the other sometimes on that guy he really needs a brain to stop the information from escaping." Fantasia said as she started to walk off.
(You really don't like him do you?) Battousai said. (No, I don't) she said back and she walked out of the kitchen. Aoshi looked at the Battousai and said "you have really upset her by asking her that question." "Yes but at least she was honest with her answer." Battousai said standing up. (You should get going Aoshi she is ready to leave she really wants to go see her sister.) Battousai said as he walked out of the kitchen.
(Yes Battousai your right) Aoshi said also exiting the kitchen. "I hope that your sister is all right and you can tell me once you get there if she is." Battousai said to Fantasia. "Thank you Battousai and tell Sora I am sorry for leaving him right after he has returned." Battousai bowed and said "I will tell him." Fantasia also bowed and thanked him and walked out the door. Aoshi followed her. Battousai walked up to his room to see if the effect of the sleeping gas had wore off.
Battousai got up to his room to find a frightened Kaoru laying in his bed. Kaoru looked at him and said "it's you the guy who save me the yesterday." "Yes it is me I have brought you here because I need to figure something out." Battousai said to her. Kaoru looked at him in wonder and said "what do you need me for and what do you need to figure out that I can help you with?"
"Why do I feel for you and if you feel for me too?" Battousai said as he sat down in one of the comfortable black chairs. "I don't know why you feel for me but I have thought about it and I think I do feel something for you but what I am not sure of right now but I would like to find out." Kaoru said getting up from the bed. "Don't get up from the bed!' Battousai commanded her.
"Okay I won't." Kaoru said as she sat back down. "You probably have some side effects from the sleeping gas Fantasia used on you." Battousai said getting up from his chair and walking over to her. "Oh okay but wait Fantasia you know her is she here, and I want to find out why she did that to me." Kaoru said getting angry at the fact that she was brought down by a girl who used sleeping gas to knock out her enemies.
"Yes I know her and no she isn't here and she did it because I wanted to see you again." Battousai said sitting down on the bed next to her. Kaoru looked at him and said "Oh so she was there just to bring me to you but why didn't you come and get me instead of sending her." Battousai looked at her and said "I knew she would want to see her sister while she was out and I didn't want to take that away from her." "Really why is her sister the only person she has got. Wait a minute I know her sister her name is Kamilia."
"Yes she is and Kamilia is the only family Fantasia has got left besides her mate." Battousai said to Kaoru only to get a confused look from the girl. Kaoru said "her mate and what happened to the rest of their family?" Battousai laughed a little and said "her mate is like a husband to a human they are bonded together for eternity. As for hers and Kamilia's family they died in a great battle and the two girls where the only ones left."
"Who were they battling and why was Fantasia and Kamilia the only ones to live?" Kaoru said to the Battousai to hoping to get some answers. "I have no right to talk about her past or Kamilia's past so I wish for it not to be asked about again unless you are asking it to one of them." Battousai said while standing up again. Kaoru looked at him and said "I am sorry I will not mention it again because it probably is a painful subject for them I should know I have also lost my family."
Battousai turned and looked at her and he could see the sadness in her eyes. He thought to himself *Why do I feel remorse for this girl I didn't feel any when I killed Fantasia family for revolting against me I left the two children because I knew they would have great power one day. But why now do I want to hold her and tell her that everything is going to be all right. What is different about her than any other female I have met.*?
Kaoru could see that he was deep in thought and she really didn't want to bother him while he was thinking but she had to ask him something. "Excuse me I don't mean to interrupt you while you are thinking but can I get up to go to the restroom?" Battousai was snapped out of his thoughts and looked at her and chuckled and said "yes you may use the restroom it is that door to your left." Kaoru smiled and said "thank you."
She got up and walked to the door stumbling a bit which was one of the side effects of the sleeping gas. Meanwhile Fantasia and Aoshi were well on their way to her sister's apartment and the cause of her sister’s sadness. They got to the apartment building they both looked for the window to her apartment by searching for Kamilia's Ki.
They found it but at the wrong window it was at the window to Kaoru's apartment and there was more than one. Fantasia jumped down from the buildings rooftop right next to the apartment buildings and Aoshi did the same. (Come on we will act as if we are married and we are visiting my sister because I have already visited her once tonight and they never saw me come out.) Fantasia said. (They never saw you come out aren't they going to wonder how you left?) Aoshi said back. Fantasia looked at him and said (no because it is a different person at the front desk the Ki is different I can feel it.) Aoshi looked at her and said (fine if you think your plan will work.)
They walked in and just as Fantasia had said there was a different person at the front desk. They walked up to her and Fantasia said "Hello miss me and my husband are here to see my sister could you tell me what room Kamilia lives in?" The lady looked at the two and said "yes I can she lives in room 21 on the ninth floor just take the elevator to the ninth floor and then walked down the hall a little ways and there you will see her door."
"Thank you miss." Fantasia said and then her and Aoshi walked to the elevator. Fantasia pushed the button and they both waited for the elevator to arrive. "Stupid fucking elevator why won't you go any faster I am in a hurry you stupid machine." Aoshi looked over at the girl and said "calm down it will be here soon." Fantasia was about to say something when the elevator doors open all she could say was you’re lucky you were right otherwise I would have hit you if it would have been another five minutes.
Aoshi just looked at her and stepped into the elevator and she did the same. He pushed the button to the 9th floor and they rode the elevator in silence beside the cursing Fantasia did because of the elevator being to slow for her. They got to the 9th floor and Fantasia ran to Kaoru's door and opened it and said "are you all right Kamilia and who is that?" Kamilia turned around to see her sister standing there with a taller man. "I could ask you the same question Fantasia," Fantasia looked at her angry now and said "This is Aoshi he was to come with me so when we get Kaoru's stuff for her I won't be the only one carrying it.
"You know where Kaoru is? Please tell me where she is and is she okay please you have to tell me!" The girl standing next to Kamilia said to Fantasia. "Yes I know where she is and no I can't tell because I don't know if I can trust you to keep it secret and also I don't know you." Fantasia said back to the girl. Kamilia looked at her sister and said "This is Misao and she is a friend of Kaoru and if you tell her she will probably call the police on you or better yet the Battousai" "I know that is why I am not telling her but we can always take her with us if you bring her Kamilia since you know her." Fantasia said.
"Yes you can bring me but will you blind fold my eyes just so I won't know where I am?" Misao said to the three vampires she was in the room with. "No because once you get there you won't be able to get out since we will be going to fast for you to even notice where we are going." Fantasia said back to the little girl. Aoshi noticed that the girl kept staring at him and it was starting to bother him. "Would you please stop staring at me?" Aoshi said to Misao.
"Yes I am sorry it is just that I have never seen someone with such eyes." Misao said back to him. Meanwhile back at the mansion Kaoru had fallen back to sleep and Battousai left her to sleep a while longer. He knew she would ask more questions when she woke and he wanted to be able to answer most of them. He walked out of his room and ran into Sora. "Hello Battousai why do you look like someone has just taken away your purpose to live?" Battousai looked at him and said "what made you feel the way you do for Fantasia?"
(A/N) I know it is not as long as the last chapter but I wanted to make this chapter one of the many cliffhangers to come. The next chapter will be longer and here is a preview of the next chapter.
What is Sora going to tell Battousai and will it help him answer his question. Will Aoshi allow Misao to come with them or will he disobey Fantasia and tell her no. These are the questions that will be answered in the next chapter.
(A/N) More information for the readers Fantasia's character description I don't think I have told y'all what she looks like yet. She has silver hair and red eyes. She is 5'7" so she is not to tall. She has tan skin and is usually seen wearing a black cloak which no one knows what outfit she wears underneath.
Sora is her mate as everyone who has been reading the story knows and he has silver eyes and black hair. He is 6'0" so he is taller than Fantasia. He has tan skin but it is not as dark as Fantasia's skin. He is usually seen in something with white on it he is very different from Fantasia but you know what they say opposites attract.
There are two of the character descriptions for everyone who is reading I hope that you will review this chapter and anyone who haven’t read it yet please read.
Also I know that Kaoru and Battousai are OOC in this chapter and I am sorry for that but I don't mean for them to be to much OOC. But I hope that y'all still like it and keep reading it.
(A/N) I am sorry if there are any grammer errors I tried to make sure they were all out if they aren't I am sorry.
(A/N) I want to say thank you to everyone who has reviewed my story I am glad that you like it and I hope that you like this chapter just as much as you like the first two.
