Chapter 10 finally avenged

 

 

The following night Kenshin got out of bed and grabbed his sword, tonight was the night that he is going to kill the ambassador and let his sister soul rest in peace. However when he slid open his door he didn't walk directly towards his victims room.

“today is Tomoe death anniversary and I have to do what I must……I know that Kaoru will hate me to it……but I have to do it……yes I love Kaoru but I don't know if she feels the same about me and I do know she will hate me for what I am about to do…..but I have to see her……one last time” thought Kenshin as he made his way towards Kaoru's room

He slid open her door and sat on the edge of her futon. He watched her as the moonlight hit her features making her even more beautiful than she already is, he brush her bangs from her face and caressed her cheek, which made her stir in her sleep, Kenshin withdrew his hand afraid of waking her but it was too late Kaoru eyes began to flutter open

“Kenshin” she whispered his name while blinking a few times

“Kenshin, what are you doing here?” she asked sitting up.

“I wanted to make sure that you're okay. I'm sorry I woke you up” he answered.

“It's okay Kenshin you don't have to worry about me all the time; I am a big girl you know”

“I can't help it Miss Kaoru after what happened yesterday I guess that I am a little worried that they would come back” he whispered

Her reaction to his answer was nothing like he expected, he found himself being embraced by Kaoru, his eyes widened at that.

“Kenshin thank you…..for caring” she whispered.

“Your welcome” said Kenshin as he wrapped his arms around Kaoru returning her embrace

“Kenshin…..you are the first and only person who cares about what happens me, and I want to thank you again, I know you wouldn't hurt me and I trust you with my life”

Those words made his heart ach, it was bad enough that he had to kill her father and now those words made him feel guiltier about it

“Thank you Miss Kaoru…..that means a lot to me” he said pulling away from the embrace

Kaoru could only smile at Kenshin.

“I better go” Kenshin said

“Okay….good night Kenshin”

“Good night Kaoru” he said as he left the room.

 

Flashbacks ran through Kenshin's head as he walked towards the ambassador's room, those flash backs filled his body filled with hatred, and that hatred has turned his eyes into amber

He entered the room and walked towards the ambassador's futon. Kenshin unsheathed his sword as the ambassador woke up and quickly got up his feet.

“Kenshin what are you doing?”

“Putting an end to your cowardly life”

“What? Why?”

“Exactly six years ago today….you were riding in the market place where some rebels came and were trying to shot you, you were too much of a coward to face death that you grabbed an innocent women from the crowd and sent her to her grave before running into a carriage like a weakling….do you remember that day?” asked Kenshin in an angry tone.

“Yes I do. But why do you want to kill me? Are you one of the rebels?”

“Worse. I am her brother, you deliberately set my sister to her death because you were too scared of losing yours, but today you will die in my hands” answered Kenshin

The ambassador eyes filled with fear, he could see his sword from the corner of his eye against the wall, he ran to grab it but Kenshin used his godlike speed to get to the sword first and threw it on the other side of the room.

“Don't think you can escape…..you will die tonight….. And there is nothing you can do or say that will let make me reconsider killing you” stated Kenshin as leaped forward to stab the ambassador but the ambassador managed to dodged the attack.

“Wait Kenshin…….I can make you an offer I know you wont refuse” the ambassador said

“There is nothing you can offer me for the exchange of letting my sister's soul rest in peace”

“I can offer you Kaoru” the ambassador said

“What?” Kenshin said, he has to admit he was rather surprised of what the ambassador just said

“What does he mean offer me Kaoru? I hope he isn't thinking what I think he is thinking…for his sake” thought Kenshin as he waited for an answer

“you heard me, I can give you Kaoru…..as you clearly can see she is beautiful and she is full of passion….you can take her in exchange of letting me live….she will make you a very happy man I guarantee you that”

“That bloody bastard, that's it, he has done it now” If Kenshin's anger had limits, it has gone beyond that point.

“you sick bastard……you simply offer me your daughter for your life……I have seen the way you treat her and that is also the reason I want to kill you….she doesn't deserved to be treated like that from anyone” said Kenshin as he ran towards the ambassador.

“Wait….ken-” the ambassador sentence was cut off by Kenshin's sword being trusted in his chest

“This is what you deserve you bastard” said Kenshin as he removed his sword from the ambassador's body.

Falling dead on the ground the ambassador's blood filled the room. Kenshin was about to leave when he heard light footsteps coming towards the room

“It's probably a guard coming to see what the noise is about” Kenshin thought as he hid into the shadows

He waited until he saw the door opened, he heard a familiar gasped. His eyes widened when he saw who just came in, the gasp belonged to the same person whose two teary blue eyes were staring at her father. Her hands on her mouth as she just stood there for a moment before running to her father's body and crying on his chest.

Kenshin body stepped out of the shadows, but kept his face in the shadow so that it is not revealed; Kaoru looked up to see her father murderer.

“You'll pay for this” she said as she stood up, wiped her eyes and took a small knife from her pocket

She then ran directly at him aiming the knife at his chest but just before she could strike, Kenshin stepped into the moonlight revealing his face for Kaoru see.

Kaoru eyes widened when she saw Kenshin stepping out of the shadows revealing his amber eyes and blood stained sword

“No…..no…..no it can't be…..not Kenshin….no he couldn't have…he wouldn't have” she thought as she backed away, the knife fell from her hand, and she couldn't believe that the man she loves had just killed her father.

“K…K…Kenshin” said Kaoru.

Kenshin didn't speak or move. He just stood there looking at Kaoru's terrified face which looked more pale than usual. Kaoru then fainted but Kenshin grabbed her in his arms before she hit the ground.

 

 

Antica: I'll think I'll stop here for now

Battousai: WHAT? WHY DID YOU STOP?

Antica: jezz Battousai, Kaoru can you calm him down

Kaoru looking depressed

Antica: Kaoru? You okay?

Kenshin: kaoru-dono I'm sorry

Kaoru: I don't blame you Kenshin, I BLAME ANTICA

Antica: what??

Kenshin: it's true you were the one who made me to it

Kaoru (pulling out her bokken): let's get her

Antica (running away): HELP ME

Battousai: nobody can save you now
