Leokia: Well I am back with the second part of this chapter and the end to my fanfiction but don't worry for those who have been reading my fanfiction I am writing a sequel to it and it is called Light Behind Darkness: A Whole New Story or I will call it Darkness Through the Light which ever. I want everyone who has been reading my fanfiction to tell me which title is better. So I hope everyone likes this chapter and the ending and will read the sequel when I get chapter one of it done.

Fortello: Leokia! Leokia! Am I going to be in the sequel?!

Leokia: I can't give that away Fortello so I can't tell you if you will be or not you will just have to read the ending and the sequel to find out.

Fortello: You are so mean to make me do that T-T.

Leokia: Yeah well onto the second part of chapter 12 but its title isn't as long as part 1 so I hope you like it. But I think there will be a part three if I don't get everything in this part.

Chapter 12 Part 2: The Race Against Time Save the Girls

Kamilia thought about her problem and her sister realized she was upset about something and so she decided to find out what was wrong. Kaoru also seen something was wrong with her friend that she had come to love as a sister like Misao so she also decided to help. So with Fantasia and Kaoru's help they were going to make Kamilia happy no matter what.

Meanwhile Kenshin, Fortello, and Hiko were well on their way to Shishio's secret mansion. Luckily for them Fortello's tracking device had not been found or better yet had been found but not destroyed. Either way they were going to find where Shishio was and save the girls. Fortello couldn't wait to get to the mansion and kill the person who had taken his only family. Battousai was angry because they had taken away two of the only people who had ever trusted him. Hiko was angry because even though he didn't want to admit it he cared for one of the girls more than anything.

All three of them ran to the mansion but before they got close to it they were stopped by Saitou. He walked up to them and said "I told you to come and get me when you were going to your revenge on Shishio. Because I don't know if you forgot Battousai but you told me I would get my chance at a fight with you after you defeated him. Now why didn't you tell me you were going." Battousai looked at him and said "I have no time to fight with you right now I am going to save one of the only people I care about besides my cousin."

Saitou looked at him but in his weird way understood where Battousai was coming from. Saitou looked at him and said "fine we are still on neutral grounds until you save your love from Shishio but once she is saved and we are back at the ruins of the mansion I get my chance at fighting you and killing you." "Fine whatever you say." Battousai said walking past him. All four of them ran as fast as they could until they came to the place of the signal. They all stopped and looked at the place.

It was a long tunnel and inside was a hidden mansion unknown to anyone. They all walked inside and looked around and at first they could see no danger but they knew that was not true there was a lot of danger in this place too much to handle for normal humans, but luckily for them they were vampires and could handle this a whole lot better than any human. They walked away from the door and started down the hall. As they walked Fortello looked around and said " what a very undecorated place the person who lives here must not like pictures too much I guess."

Battousai, Saitou, and Hiko looked at him as if he had lost his mind somewhere and he needed to find it fast. Battousai looked at him and said" Fortello they are evil they don't need pictures." Fortello just looked at him and agreed and just kept on walking. Meanwhile Shishio knew they were in the mansion and he watched them walk down the hall. He looked over to Soujiro who had finally came into the room and had already agreed to help him.

Soujiro just smiled and left the room. Shishio then sent Yumi to get the girls. Yumi did as he asked and left through a secret entrance in the room she would take the hall way back to the room. Meanwhile all three girls sat in the room staring at each other when finally Fantasia said "what is wrong Kamilia you look upset so tell me what is wrong and if I can help you."

"I don't know if you can help me I don't even know if I can help myself with this problem." "If you tell me maybe I can try to understand the problem and help you with it." Fantasia said answering her sister and the only thing she got for a few seconds was silence. Kamilia for those few seconds managed to look everywhere but at her older sister. Finally looking at her sister she said "I think I know that boy that we saw walk by."

Fantasia looked at her and said "why didn't you tell us this when he walked by?!" "Because I didn't want to be wrong, about who he was when he was walking by. Until I realized that it was him and that I knew I knew him. (A/N I know that line maybe a little confusing but that was how it was suppose to be because Kamilia is kinda of confused right now. Okay I am through explaining for now so back to the fanfiction.) I know who he is his name is Soujiro Seta."

"So how do you know that and how do you know him at all?!" Fantasia said looking at her very annoyed at this point. "I know his name because I met him while I was traveling with the rest of our people before I came back to town to find you and make up with you." Kamilia said answering her sister and hoping that was enough for her. "Okay I just wanted to know." Fantasia said. Kaoru listened to both of the sisters and she was glad that Fantasia was able to find out what was wrong with Kamilia but she also wanted to help as well.

Kaoru looked at Kamilia and smiled and said "Kamilia please let us help you in anyway we can." Fantasia and Kamilia both looked at her and smiled and Fantasia said"yeah pleased let us help." "Okay I will let you help me." Kamilia said smiling even more that her sister also wanted to help her. They were all smiling when Yumi walked into the room. She looked at the three girls and said "Lord Shishio wishes to see you." They all looked at her and Fantasia said "can't he do anything for himself besides making people do it for him!"

"Lord Shishio doesn't have to do anything for himself we are willing to do it for him." Yumi said answering Fantasia's question. Fantasia looked at her and said "how could anyone want to give their life up for a vampire who looks like he has been well-done." "Because I love him and I will do anything for Lord Shishio!" Yumi said and Fantasia couldn't argue with her then because Fantasia knew what it was like to want to do anything for the one you love. So Fantasia shut up and followed her out the door along with Kaoru and Kamilia.

They followed her down the hall and as they were walking they saw Soujiro. Kamilia stopped and looked at him. Soujiro just looked at her and smiled. Fantasia also stopped to look at her sister. Fantasia walked up to her and said "why don't you go talk to him I will stall for you." Kamilia looked at Fantasia and smiled. Kamilia waited until he went into a room. She hugged her sister and followed him. Fantasia ran back up and followed Yumi and she had a trick to making sure her sister wasn't noticed as being gone.

Meanwhile Kamilia made her way to the room and walked in. Soujiro looked up from where he was now sitting and smiled and then realized who had come into the room. He remembered her because she was another person besides Lord Shishio that had given him an ideal. He remembered meeting her when he was following Lord Shishio and they had made it to a town with an inn. They were staying at the inn and so Lord Shishio could keep a low profile Soujiro got anything he needed for him.

'He walked down stairs and saw the little girl sitting at a table by herself and looking as if she was waiting for someone and they weren't ever going to come. At first he thought maybe she would treat him badly like everyone before Lord Shishio but she didn't. It was her that came up to him and said "hello what is your name?" Soujiro looked at her and realized she was smiling and he could see it was a fake smile. He realized then that something bad must have happened in her life to cause her to be like she was. He also realized that it was something in his life that cause him to be the way he was.

He smiled back her and said "my name is Seta Soujiro and yours." He remembered her giving him her name but without a last name.' Soujiro stopped reminiscing when Kamilia said "Hello Soujiro long time no see." He smiled at her and said "Hello Kamilia. Yeah it has been a long time too long." Kamilia walked up to him and said "so what have you been up to besides helping a guy who has kidnaped me and my sister and one of my best friends?" "Nothing just traveling. I never knew you were captured by Lord Shishio." "Not you too. Why is that everyone can call this guy Lord what has he done for any of you besides using you and everyone else in this place to succeed in his plan to take over Japan?"

"Lord Shishio is the only other person besides you that gave me something to believe I remember what he said and I remember what you told me." "Really do you I mean do you remember what I told you that day." Kamilia said looking him in the eyes. Soujiro walked up to her and said "yes I remember it just like I remembered you every day since that day I met you. You told me that even though your life had been horrible and you felt you had nothing to live for you realized that you had everything to live for because you were born to live your life too fullest and always would no matter what happened. Then you told me that I should do the same.

You told me that you could see that I had been through a painful time in my life and that I shouldn't let it bother me because not everything in this life is horrible just some things and that we shouldn't let the bad things bring us down. I remember ever single word to that conversation everything you said to even your name. The only thing you didn't tell me was your last name." "I don't have a last name because every time I think about it I remember the day I lost it." Kamilia said still looking at him. Soujiro closed the space between them and hugged her. He had never shown emotions before but she had made a place in his heart.

Kamilia hugged him back and was now crying because she had missed him and had wanted to see him again. She was also crying because she was sad she knew that Battousai and Fortello would be here soon and they would fight him and she didn't want to see any of them to get hurt. Soujiro realized she was crying and looked at her. She fell to her knees crying and he sat down with her and said "what is wrong?" "Nothing it is just I am so happy I got to see you again but I am sad because I don't want you to get hurt but I also don't want my brother and my cousin to get hurt either." Soujiro hugged her and said "I pro. . . . " "Don't promise things because I know that some promises are made to be broken."

Soujiro shook his head and said "I will try not to get hurt and I will try not to hurt your brother or your cousin. No please stopped crying I don't like to see you cry." Kamilia looked at him and smiled again. When she did Soujiro wiped the tear that had rolled down her face away and then kissed her. Meanwhile Fantasia had used her technique of manipulating KI to make it seem like it was three Ki there hopefully Yumi wouldn't think anything of it and wouldn't look back. Kaoru just looked at Fantasia she couldn't wait until she had powers like that.

Meanwhile Battousai, Fortello, Hiko, and Saitou were making their way through the mansion and they made it to the hall with all the rooms. Kenshin and Fortello took one room Hiko and Saitou took another and they searched each one they came to for the girls. Battousai and Fortello were the first to meet one of the Juppongatana. They met Kamatari. Both Battousai and Fortello looked at him and Fortello said "Man are you ugly." Battousai looked at Fortello and Kamatari did too and Kamatari used his scythe at Fortello for saying that.

Kamatari said "how dare you insult me. If I defeat you two then Lord Shishio will love me." Fortello moved out of the way of his scythe and said "no I mean no one could love you trust me on this I know what I am talking about."Kamatari threw his scythe again and Battousai realized that Fortello was playing decoy for him to attack Kamatari but Battousai knew one thing this time he had to watch out for the end of Kamatari's scythe. So Battousai ran around behind him and waited for him to try and hit him with the end of his scythe and when Kamatari did Battousai jumped over it and used his sword killing Kamatari this time for good. Kamatari turned to dust and Battousai and Fortello ran out of the room and down the hall again.

Meanwhile Hiko and Saitou were looking for someone to fight. Neither had found one but they were hoping to find someone soon. Saitou though was mainly focused on getting his chance to face the Battousai again. Hiko had other things on his mind he wanted to make sure the girls were all right especially one of them. They both looked in the next room and what they found was something. They weren't expecting.

Well there is Part 2 of Chapter 12. I was hoping to get everything in this part of the chapter but I also wanted a cliffhanger once I saw I could get one so I decided to go with the cliffhanger. I am sorry it has taken me to write this part of the chapter but I have had a lot to do. I have a big big test in chemistry coming up and I have been studying for so I haven't had time to write on my Fanfiction.

I am hoping that everyone reads this chapter and reviews it for me. I hope that everyone likes and yes I know the characters are still OOC but I really think it makes the fanfiction just a little better that way and even if it doesn't I don't try to make them out of character it just happens and I am sorry if some people don't like my fanfiction because of it. I have a favor to ask of everyone who reads my fanfiction though if you could do this I have the first chapter to a story I am writing on fictionpress and I was wondering if you would go there and read it.

I will say now it is about my character Fantasia but she isn't a vampire in it. The story that I am writing is where I got my character Fantasia from. So if everyone who reads this could go there and review it for me and tell me what you think I would be really happy. Okay that is all for this part of the author’s notes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~
Preview for Chapter 12 Part 3: Hiko and Saitou met a site they didn't expect to see nor people they expected to see.

That is all I am going to say for Chap.12 Part 3 and I will try and get it up sooner than this chapter but if I don't then I am sorry. I will have a lot of time to work on everything in April because I will be having spring break then and if I am still working on this fanfiction or the sequel to it then I will be working a lot on it. But I have to tell everyone that sometime in April I won't be working on it at all because my mother is coming home from Iraq in that month and I will be there to see her when she gets home. So I will get a lot of work done in April and not a lot so just all depends on what is going on in that month that decides that.

Well that is all of the authors notes and again I am sorry for any spelling or grammar errors that maybe in my fanfiction I tried to get them all out and I am sorry if I didn't. Please Read and Review because I like it when I get reviews.

Bye for now Leokia ^_^.
