The Curse: continued...
Awhile later, Kaoru was slapping bandages onto Kenshin's face.
"Well, you're out of that mess!" said Kaoru, putting a bandage on.
"That I am." said Kenshin, smiling. Despite being sore all over, Kenshin felt relieved that he was out of the well. He hung his wet clothes on the clothing line and put on an old gi and hakama.
"So, we gonna get some grub here anytime soon?" asked Sano.
"Ah, that's right! This one needs to go shopping so we CAN have something to eat!" said Kenshin. Sitting up slowly, Kenshin stretched; straightening out his back. Which made it crack really loudly, "This one will be back soon!"
*This one should've told Sano to go shopping, instead.* Kenshin strolled through the market, his muscles aching in protest.
"This one should've gotten out of the well sooner." sighed Kenshin. Well, he had bought everything. Enough to make a good lunch. He decided it wouldn't hurt to take a rest by the river.
He walked down the hill; carefully, as not to slip and drop the food. He set down the groceries and sat on the log that oversaw the river flow by.
"Well, doesn't this seem familiar..." said Kenshin, to himself. This was the same place where Kaoru was kidnapped by Jin-e. That event unleashed Battosai for the first time in 10 years. That single event...
Kenshin sighed. Even though he had the Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki, the fear that Battosai might surface again never went away. Even now, after the events of Jinchuu, Battosai threatens to rise again...
Kenshin blinked and shook his head.
"Now, now. Let's not think about that." said Kenshin, quietly scolding himself. He stared into the river again, watching what went by, "It must've rained pretty hard upstream. The current's pretty rough. And there's a lot of debris in there too..."
*Lets see...branch, branch, a couple of leaves, branch, branch, ...someone's clothes, branch, empty bento box, leaves, branch, a feather, leaves, leaves, branch, ...some more clothes..., branch, branch, log, leaves, branch, leaves, girl, branch, leaves, bran-*
"Girl...?" said Kenshin. He blinked and looked at the river again. And indeed, a young girl was being rushed down the river, and she was crying out for help.
"Heeeeellllllp!! Someone!! Help!!!"
Kenshin then realized the situation and went into action. He quickly stood up and ran downstream to catch up with the girl.
"Hold on!!" yelled Kenshin, tucking the sakabato in his belt. He jumped into the river, and was almost immediately swept away with the current.
Coming up for air, he looked around for the girl. He found her; she was barely keeping her head above the raging water. Kenshin swam forward, which was easy since that was the way the current was going. The girl went under, and he managed to catch her and bring her to the surface.
"Are you alright?!" he asked her. But it was no use. She was unconscious.
Kenshin tried to swim back to shore, but the current was just too strong; even for him. Some low weeds gave Kenshin an idea. As soon as he passed them, he grabbed them; hoping he could pull the girl and himself to safety. But as soon as he grabbed them, a sharp pain went through his palm. They weren't weeds; they were briars. The thorns on them were pretty long and dug into Kenshin's skin pretty deep. Gritting his teeth against it, he tried to pull himself and the girl towards the shore. But the briar snapped, making both of them flow down the river again.
Kenshin was starting to loose strength. It was taking everything in him to keep the girl's head above the water, as well as his own. Even with his amazing strength, the river's strength overrode that. Kenshin checked on the girl again. She was still out. Kenshin hoped that he wasn't too late. Suddenly, the sound of the rushing water was drowned out by a louder roaring of water. Kenshin realized, with horror, what it was.
A waterfall.
As a last ditch attempt, Kenshin tried to swim upstream. That didn't work out too good. Kenshin was exhausted. He looked behind him, and the waterfall was right there. Kenshin held the girl closer to him; hoping that she would make it out okay...
::DUNDUNDUN!! Cliffhangers! Don't ya love 'em?! XP Anyhoo, as some of you can probably see, I changed my BG. I wanna know 2 things; 1: Is it good? And 2: Do I need to change the color of the font so u can see it easier? I stayed home from school today! ^_^ But not for pleasure. I threw up 3 times yesterday. And I felt awful. Today I went to the doctors and.....guess what it was? Strep throat? Nope. Mono? Nope. Penicidus *sp?*? HELL NO!
