Chapter 1 (Life)
Once upon a time, there lived in a far away castle, a princess, called Kamiya Kaoru. She was loved by men and adored by women. However, when the little girl was young, she was placed under a spell by an evil woman called Hailey Quanchi. Now, Hailey soon gave birth to a son, called Jempiah, before Kaoru was born, and swore to make the two get married. Yet, a thin line remain intact and the same,
'if true love is allowed to exist,
then break what is feared,
and everything shall be disappeared,
and if so, reversed.'

"Daddyyy!" a young girl screamed as she ran down the hall…
Her father King and Shogun of Japan, Kamiya, was quite engrossed with his bills and forms of the government, however with the sudden break of pain and frantic in his daughter's voice, he paused his unconscious task, and looked up at the blue eye beauty…
Standing, the young girl entered the room…
"Daddyyy! Look!" she spoke frantically, as she clutched her sore finger and showed her father…
"Oh my…" he answered… "how did you get that my dearest?" he asked while cocking his head to the right.
"Well" she started. Obviously, he father knew she earned it. The 'well' was all he needed to know that she deserved what she got.
"Nevermind!" she laughed in a feigning manner as she unconsciously skipped backwards out the door…
"KAORU!" he called firmly…
Kaoru sagged. She was caught alright. Curse her big mouth and stupid mind for not thinking clearly…
'I'm such an idiot!'
"Yes father!" she answered cordlessly…
"Where did you get that?" he asked while sitting back in his seat…
"-----------Outside?" she answered with a ring at the ending of her word
"Weren't you suppose to be outside with your body guard?" he asked
"Oh daddy! I don't like my body guards, they're all so mean and never let me do anything! They just stand---and watch! It's creepy daddy, besides, as you can see I can clearly protect myself…I don't need a guard!" she bit her lips in silence…
His eyes were shut while his fingers lightly touched one another. His daughter was the princess and heir to the Kamiya name. She was the heir to the Shogun's army and the rightful legitimate person of the name Kamiya, Princess Kamiya. Yet, she possessed little qualities of a lady. Most of the day, she would have teachers gathering around her, educating her, teaching her and quarreling at her. She was miss immodest and haughty. One time, at the fair, she'd been kidnap, instead of she screaming for help from her kidnapper, her kidnapper was screaming from her threat. Just to clear the image up, just imagine, Kaoru as a pretty princess sitting on a dirty floor, with a dirty looking man, with two ponies high in the air and makeup on his face. How very distasteful!
Anyway, this was just incident 1. Then, another time, there was suppose to be a huge banquet, which she did dress princess like and highly for, but it's the etiquette that failed her. She belched quite loudly at the prays of the assembly, she sneezed over someone's hot soup and she scratched throughout the entire program. How very unlady like.
Yet, her father knew, she never had a mother, and really, it was a wonder of why that she should take commands from other females, when clearly, the princess took saw no female with a maternal instinct.
Opening his eyes, he looked up at his daughter who was making very silent and involuntary steps back to the exit.
"Kaoru!" he spoke deeply
"You called?" she laughed strangely out of it.
"What did you do?" he asked
*sighs* "I was playing with the little dog and I began to chase him around so he could get back in his cage, when all of a sudden, he started barking at me, so I ran, but then it hit me, he's not even close the size of me, so why should I run? So I turned around and ruff-ruff-ruff-ruff he barked and BAM, he bit me and I got this bobo!" she showed her father with pouted lips…
"And do you think you deserve it?" he asked neutrally
"Nope!" she shook her head fiercely
"Okay sweetheart! You go to your dormitory now and I'll see what I can do about Lasko (dog) okay?" he asked
"Uh-huh!" she shook her head vigorously
Exiting he gave a huge sigh. His daughter was definitely too much trouble.

"KYAHHH!" the lines of young boys exclaimed in harsh breathing
"AGAIN!" Katagi shouted as the boys slammed their swords into nothing more than air
"KYAHH!" they shouted
"AGAIN YOU SISSIES!" he shouted…
"KYAHHH!" they screamed…
"What's the matter? Tired of a little whooping! You there, come here!" Katagi pointed off at a little boy…
"Me?" his voice was meek. He seem as if he were intimidated, which probably made Katagi gain the upper hand by the boys facial expression…
"Yes you idiot! COME HERE NOW!" he shouted pounding his feet in consolidation
The little boy shook his head silly and hurried to the front. Dragging his huge blade, Katagi smirked…
"What's your name! I don't believe I ever saw you?" he leaned over to the little boys shy-scared face…
"N-No, sir! I-I-'m new, sir!" he stuttered.
Appalled that stuttering people gave away his time, he slammed his sword's hilt into the boy's face…
He fell back and clutched his face wildly. It burned. Looking at his hand, he saw the sheet of red on his hand. Holding his cheek, he squinted at it's tremendous pain. Katagi smirked.
"Then what's your name you maggot?" he asked loudly with chest high in the air…
"Ashitaka!" he mumbled his words…
"Well Ashitaka, I got news for you. This is the Ishinshin, if you don't learn to hold your sword and defend each breath you have, and for what use it is, then kiss ass, coz you're going to die! AND THAT GOES FOR ALL OF YOU! Nowww, GET BACK TO YOUR LINE!" Katagi screamed…
Across from Katagi, a warrior in a blue gi with a gray hakama and a dashing appearance, leaned against the wall with a vacant expression with locks of fiery red and acidic amber untamed. His eyes were shut and a timid smirk crept it's way up his lips. Nevertheless the warrior was intrigued with Katagi's brutality…
'Punk!'
Immediately a trumpet blew throughout the entire grounds. Summoning the best of his warriors, Battousai, Katagi, and Hotsuma were all gathered around Katsura's conference table…
They all stood and looked over the sheet he lay onto the table…
"Ah! Question!" Katagi raised his hand
"What?" Katsura asked
"Why do we need to kill this body guard?" he asked…
"Because Katagi, lets just say, if we get this imbecile out our way, then maybe we can get to the King! Get where I'm coming from? Or do I need to explain step by step of this procedure?" he asked
"Step by step would be good!" he toyed, Katsura growled. "I'm just joking Mr. Cranky pants!" Katagi stuck out his tongue…
"The things I do for the Ishinshin ain't funny!" Katsura slapped his face in mortal disgust…
"So, whose killing him?" Hotsuma leaned forward
"I think you gentlemen could agree upon it? One of you have to lead the Ishinshin to it's hideout while another one of you may have to--uh, well…be an undercover! And everyone's okay with this!?" Katsura asked
Katagi in desperate mock raised his hand. Katsura rolled his eyes and monotonously answered the man, "yess Katagi, what now?"
"Can I get the princess when we kill the king?" he asked
"G-ET, O-UT- N-OWW!" Katsura trembled with anger
"Ah is that a yes or a no?" he asked
"OUT!"
"I'm going, I'm going!"
Hotsuma and Kenshin left where they suggested that Kenshin would kill the guard, Katagi would protect the base and Hotsuma would be the undercover. Agreed in a unanimous vote, they all dispatched…

"KAORU!" her father called
"What?" she answered prettily
"I have something to show you!" he spoke across the hall
"It's not another one of those boring stories from when you were a kid, right?" she shouted
"No---it's way better than that!"
"Okay, I'll be there in a sec!" she shouted
Running could be heard from across the hall and a raven beauty stood looking eagerly at what her father so proclaimed was wonderful.
"I will like you to met Weis-ef-no-bwucner!" he spoke in introduction
"Whata whata wha?" she inquired…
"This Kaoru, is your new bodyguard!" he spoke. Kaoru's entire face faulted and she swore she'd die. The amount of bodyguards she had, was just very amazing…
Bowing at the gentleman, his features seem dangerous, sharp and arousing. His blonde hair stood in a high pony, with a serious jaw line that was tight from supposedly straight whites. His eyes were hazel green and his pale skin seem luring. Not that, she'd confess that aloud.
Gentling giving a quick shake in acknowledgement, Kaoru gave a mesmerized-sheepish smile. A bright blush formed across his features. She really was a beautiful woman. To beautiful the boy thought…
"He will be your bodyguard for as long as you let him!" her father sighed
"--O-Of, c-c-ourse!" she stuttered breathless…
Her father arch a brow. He never saw Kaoru so--so silly. She was always a sharp witty girl, but never did she fall head over heels for a guard--or shall I correct, a boy!
Sorting his throat, Kaoru snapped from her frenzy trilogy.
"You may start you job now, Mr. Weis-ef-no-bwucner." the king spoke as he took his place next to the princess and exited with her.
_______________________________________________________________________________
It was about half past ten, Kaoru had been speaking to the dead out body guard which she had once fallen for. He was worst than all her guards. Talk about anti-social. The air gave a provocative tension which made one assume, these two were not meant to be…
Kaoru's dog, Lasko suddenly came running to her. Opened hands welcome the small barking creature who jumped into her hands. Holding and rocking the animal, it barked for two-three seconds while it's frisky little tail wigged and wagged…
"Lasko, this is Mr. Weis-uf-no-bouncer!" she spoke
"It's Weis-ef-no-bwucner!" he spoke void
"Whatever!"
Kaoru began playing with the dog, when suddenly the guard was called in by another guard!
"Don't even attempt to do anything crazy!" he warned
She raised a hand in the air while another rested on her chest.
"You have my word good sir!" she spoke
"Good!" he walked away from her
The little dog barked and began frolicking to the deep foliage and greenery…
"Lasko, come back here!" she called
"LASKO!" she shouted…
The dog ran off into the dense green and immediately, raising the dress she head out for him…
The forest air was cooler and the canopy of trees that encircled the top, seem to allow few spicks of light to touch and caress the earth and her face. Running with the air threw her hair she kept listening to the dog's barking, until she felt she'd been running forever.
'Light!'
Seeing the light up ahead, she ran to it, until she broke free. Seeing her dog sitting quietly, she gave a deep sigh and went to her dog.
"Lasko!" she sighed
Going to him, he ran to her. She held him and heard him yelping.
"Lasko??" she called
Looking around, she met a young boy.
"Hello!" she answered
The boy exited and came to her. He was clutching his cheek. Seeing the caked blood on his fingers, she quickly went to him. He snapped and angrily, raised his katana which she completely missed.
"GET BACK!" he shouted
"You don't want to kill me, just put the sword down!" she hushed him…
"No! Katagi said I had to be strong, and I will be strong by killing you!" he charged into her…
"Then if you are strong, then in your scenario you are dishonored. To kill a man with no weapon is a sin, but to kill a hopeless woman is a greater shame. You dishonor your elite soldiers and have no right to hold the frozen hilt of the katana." she mingled…
The boy gasped. His eyes were huge and he swore she'd been a ghost as her words echoed endlessly within him. Dropping his blade, he bowed his head and fell. He was a disgrace…
Seeing his tears, she saw he was a mere boy adhered to the word of killing. Curse those who instilled it, curse them!
Going to his side, she asked to see the wound. He avoided but then slowly he gave in. Seeing the nasty cut, she ripped her dress hem and lightly wiped it…
Sooner than expected she was talking with him
"So, what's you name?" she asked nicely
"Ashitaka!" he answered sweetly
"Nice to meet you, I'm Kaoru!" she smiled
"Pleasure!" he bowed…
*RUSTLING*
Seeing a flock of birds flying above them, Ashitaka told her to run.
"What's the matter?" she inquired
"Run! You don't wanna know!" he spoke
"But I do!"
"Run! Please!"
"No!"
"RUN KAORU! RUN!"
"Well, well, well! What do we have here?" a group of young boys encircled the two…
Kaoru grew frantic.
"Whose the whore?" the older looking guy asked
"I beg your pardon?" Kaoru spoke back flawless in her Japanese
"Educated and delicious, now that's what I'm talking about!" the boys came closer
"Leave her alone!" Ashitaka defended
"Oh, how sweet, Ashitaka's got himself a lil girlfriend, well I got news kid, she wants something harder to go between her legs, yours is way too small. She needs one like mine!" the boy licked his lips…
Kaoru suddenly felt cold. The conversation was turning into a arousing desire of some delinquent children, boys to correct!
"You stop right there!" she growled
"Feisty are we. Take off the dress babe!" the guy spoke
"Ask your father to do the honors, ladies first after all!" she gritted her teeth…
Threatened by the statement, the boy ordered the troops to get her…
"Not today!" she spoke
Taking Ashitaka's huge sheath, she began wiping and lashing the boys with sudden thrusts of the sheath. Grounding them till they were to the floor, she stood powerful in a stance…
Someone caught her hand and she struggled to get out.
"Let me go!" she screamed
Throwing her to the floor, she looked upon to what might seem to be the face of a blood thirsty murderer.
He looked at her and swore to put her down if she played wild. Kaoru got up and tried protecting Ashitaka.
"Come!" his voice send an electricity of Goosebumps down her skin
Ashitaka, had no chance. Kaoru tried to get him back, yet he would not. Standing in front of the man, Battousai kicked the boy in the gut making Kaoru gasp loudly…
"You atrocious bastard!" she screamed as she ran into him.
Her fists were sent into nothing more than air. Taking the stopped hand, his hands ringed it back, until she was kneeling…
"Ackk!" she screamed…
"Shut the hell up!" he leaned her off.
Falling face flat into the dirt of the earth, she raised her head and turned. Turned to have a blade aimed at her throat.
Kaoru shut her eyes, "you will pay sir! Dearly for your action when my father is heard of this news!" she spit…
"Humph! You wish!" he pressed it against her throat
"One last request, I will like to know the name of my murderer!" she spoke
"Access denied!" he spoke coldly…
A disk was flung straight to his face, where he ducked. Looking forward, Kaoru saw her body guard.
"Weis-ef-no-bwucner" she sighed
"This is between you and I Battousai!" Weis spoke
"So you found a job! Whose servant are you now?"
"You wouldn't like to know!" he spoke
Taking Kaoru up, he placed her beside a tree where she held her doggie and looked at the two.
The both men charged in with untraceable movement. Katana's clashed and sparked but nothing seem to progress. It was as if strength was equal and same.
"Stop it you freak!" Kaoru shouted.
Weis moved in front protecting her,
"And who might she be that you so protect, a bitch?" Battousai ran into the two, circling the two with his ancient dance…
"Princess Kaoru, heir to the thrown of queen and shogun's army, Battousai!" he chilled…
Kaoru's body froze, 'Hitokiri Battousai…'
Kenshin froze, not giving an intimidating smile, but a hard swallow, Weis knew he was dubbed. 'Princess Kaoru'
