Hi Guys,

Thank you all for the wonderful reviews. I am pleased that I managed to touch the emotions of so many of you though my writing. I have a real problem expressing emotion through my writing, so this is truly a badge of honour.

The continuation of this story has already been posted up under the story title 'Gravity'. I hope that you all enjoy it as much has you've enjoyed 'In the Bitterness'.

Just a little note to all paring shippers, the continuation will no longer contain any KenshinXKaoru. There is also a possibility that Misao X Aoshi may change as well, but I haven't decided at the moment.

I hope you enjoy it.

Cheers

Akasha-d
