As the village went about its evening details, a figure found its way to a graveyard within Kirigakure. Once this figure had reached its place, it began walking among the gravestones until it found one in particular. Goldenrod eyes stared out from beneath a hood of a cloak and in the moonlight, a few drops of tears hit the cold ground. The figure fell to his knees as it lowered its head to face the ground. The figure was Akanuma Kenshin and this day was the day that marked nearly twenty years since Hitomi died to Kenshin's brother, Hajime. As Kenshin's body moved with a growing pace of sobbing, his body slumped onto the ground. As he sobbed, he felt the beast inside him awaken. The beast that he jailed for thirty-four years of his life and the beast that had become his closest ally in these dark days. As the sobbing came to a stop, the Yonbi rumbled from its seal. "Why do you hide your pain from the others, Kenshin?

[/color]"

Kenshin's body simply laid there as remaining tears slowly touched upon the cold ground. The man who had hid so much pain had broken down in mere moments. Kenshin knew that he could not keep it bundled up in private and so that is why he made these graveyard visits. Slowly rising to his own feet, he pulled a single rose from his cloak and laid it by the gravestone. He bowed his head as he moved to the next grave set. It was an entire line dedicated to his family.

"Because I can't let others get involved in my fight and my pain."

"What about that female medic? You know, the one that seems to go out of her way to make sure you are alright?"

Kenshin did not reply to that for the moment. He knew very well who the Yonbi spoke of. Kurisutina was a iryo-nin who often looked after him when he came to visit the hospital or in the times he had to be forced there. She had shown him great kindness and all he offered her was simple words. He never showed more then gratitude for her help, but he still kept his distance. He feared that Hajime would take more precious people from his life.

As he came to the last grave on his visit, his hands clenched. They clenched as hard as possible as he stared at the grave. Memories flashed through his mind and voices echoed in his mind. His body began to seethe with rage as he drew his hands up. Since he had thought himself private, his hands formed hand seals and as he hit the last hand seal, he looked up to the sky and sucked in air.

Katon: Karyuu Endan!

Letting out all his rage into one jutsu, he blew out a hot stream of flames into the sky. When he had let this done, his body began to shake until he hit the ground with a sudden collapse. The Yonbi could only watch in shock as for once in nearly twenty years? His jailor started hyperventilating. The Yonbi yelled out for Kenshin to breathe easier, but the job was already done.

Kenshin's form now laid there in the growing night cold. His hyperventilating drove him into unconciousness and soon his body went limp. The gravestone he had laid by was a grim one. One that told a future lost and one that had been the breaking point for this jinchuuriki.

Here lies Akanuma Hiruzen
Unborn child, but loved by the mother: Shinkume Hitomi.

Meanwhile, a certain iryo-nin had been dispatched with a team of jounin to investigate the flames.

Most of it was thanks to one auburn hair woman, who sat in front of a desk writing up her reports before she would go home that evening so she could be ready for her morning shift for the next day. Her blue eyes tiredly look down at the patient’s information, they were doing well just needed to rest for the next few days, she would have check up on them the next day. With her office being on the other side of the building, Kurisutina had missed the action that was happening on the other side. A young apprentice skidded to stop in front of her door; she turned and looked at him, raising a thin brow curious to why he was out of breath. “Ma’am, since you’re the only free iryo-nin we need you to see if anyone’s fine!” Kuri slowly got out of her chair a concerned frown on her face. “Why; what happened?” She put her crème color coat and red scarf on before heading for the door, the boy moved aside. “There was a large fire. Possibly a fight went off between ninjas!” He over enthusiastically said, his eyes shown fear; that’s the last thing an iryo-nin should show when there was an emergency. So, a large fight went off and she was the only one who could help out. “Where at?” Kuri asked, swiftly walking through the hallway, the boy followed behind. “It was near where the cemetery is at.” She snapped her head over, concern was written all over her face. “Leave it to me,” she sighed, “disrespecting the dead. They deserve their peace.” The young boy stopped and watches the woman rounded up two other body ninjas, running out of the hospital. She weaved through people unsure of how the whole situation was like down there. People gasped as she went through them, lights from different places started to come on, showing what businesses were open at night or people lighting up their homes. Finally, they stopped at the edge of the cemetery. A silent breeze went by, picking up her scarf and hair as if it was attempting to touch her but only passed by. “Come on, let’s scout the area. If you see anyone who’s resentencing, take them down, talk some sense. If someone’s hurt get me.” Both ninja’s nodded and went there way inspecting the area. She walked with a brisk pace looking around seeing where these possible ninjas could be at. Then she stopped, a person was collapsed on the ground. Kuri stopped and bent down, her light colored eyes widened in shock, she stuck two fingers lightly on the side of his neck, counting. A sigh escaped her lips, he was still breath, still alive, it seemed like he had hyperventilated but his body was taking care of him, trying to get everything back into regulation. “Kuri?” She looked with a wary smile, “There’s no one in the area.” They looked down at Kenshin’s body and then back to Kurisutina. “Just him.” She sighed, lightly patting his head. “You can go back. I’ll be able to take care of him.” Of course, he’s always being directed her way a few of the female iryo-nin know about her crush on the man. The ninja nodded and went to get their partner to return back to the hospital, their job finished and no one harmed, too much. Her blue eyes looked down at Kenshin, how long had she liked this man? For as long as she could remember, the academy years he was such a goof always making people happy but became bitter when he lost the love his life. Sure Kuri loved a man who was in love with someone else, no one else compared to the outgoing man. But now he was darker, colder, kept to himself, maybe it was her mission to bring the man out of his shell and make him who he use to be; or at least as close as she could. She then got onto her knees, reaching into her medic pouch for some smelling salts, getting him awake and off the cold floor would be her first mission, after he awaken she would need to see if there was any serious injuries. She popped the lid off of the small container and waved it lightly under his nose. If only she could watch him longer, but she had a job to do. [/style]

Slowly, the man who had fallen to unconciousness took to the real world. As his goldenrod eyes looked around, he set his gaze on Kuri and she could see that pain. The gripping agony that held onto him to these years. When he realized where he was, he prepared to leap away but found himself weakened. His attempts to push himself up were met with his body giving way and him collapsing again. As he hit the cold ground he seemed to just stop there with his goldenrod eyes trying to avoid looking at Kuri. "Why are you here, Kuri?" As he laid there, he felt his own heart give a tight grip. He started to cough as he laid there in the cold. He closed his eyes as, in the shadow of his hood, he began to shed more tears. Not as much as a big sob, but some leaked down his face. He felt nothing but agony and pain taking its time to torment him. His mask was weak and now Kuri could see what he held behind it. If she looked up at the grave he had collapsed by, she would see why. Slowly, the demonic chakra of the Yonbi began to pulse through him. He felt his strength return and then some as the Yonbi willingly lent its power to--almost forcing it on Kenshin-- the tormented man. Kuri would notice the sizzling coming from the ground. It was common knowledge to the iryo-nin that Kenshin was the Yonbi Jinchuriki. Kenshin slowly calmed down and rolled onto his back again. He stared up at the night sky, silently, for a moment. "...You are far too kind to me, Kuri. Why?" Deep down, he knew. He had kept himself from getting attached to her but even that didn't stop it. He, deep down, loved Kuri but did not want to put her in harm's way. This is why he worked in such a manner, to where she would not get too close to him. Yet, this did not stop the iryo-nin from showing him kindness when he offered barely any in return. Even the Yonbi chided him for such actions.

He then jerked once his body failing him, Kenshin tried again but once more failed. So, it seemed his decision was to just stay on the ground his face away from Kuri’s. She bit her lip, her brows came together in concern and petty for the man on the ground. Well, to Kuri that was a silly question and he used her pet name. A light blush went across her face as she sat crisscross now since her legs were getting numb staying on her knees. “There was a report of a large fire ball, possibly a fight broke out here.” She said, “Was there fight?” Kuri brushed some of her hair out of her face before tilting her head, the required question asked. She then noticed his chest heaving, was he crying? Kuri’s eyes flickered to the grave but looked away quickly, changing her position, she went from the Indian style to her knees getting pulled up to her chest wrapping her arms around them. Kuri and a few of the older people knew what had happen. A man never deserved this kind of fate or pain. Sadly Kanshin was in the way of fate. Her eyes then flickered down to Kenshin, the ground sizzled, the prickling sensation of chakra filled the air, and the Yonbi was lending its power to Kenshin. She was too kind, the answer should’ve been obvious, Kuri was in love with the man. Her hands clenched tightly to her upper arms and her eyes narrowed. “I’m far too kind to everyone because everyone needs a person to be kind to them.” She said lightly, looking up at the night sky. He could’ve hit her many times and it wouldn’t stop her from treating him any differently, love did that to a person. “I believe you deserve a lot of kindness.” A small smile was on her face; her eyes looked back down on him. “Are you hurt anywhere? Do I need to take you to the hospital?” [/style]

Slowly, he rose from his position on the ground and began to undo his cloak. As he stood, he removed his cloak and stepped over to Kuri and wrapped the cloak around her. His strong hands were on her shoulder for a moment before he gave her something of a surprise and that was a hug. As his arms came around her, she could feel the warmth of his body radiate into her and keep her warm. "There was no fight. Only my anger. Only my pain." As he spoke, he closed his goldenrod eyes. He channeled his chakra and she would see the steam blow from his nose. As he opened his eyes, he set his gaze on the gravestone and sighed. Something about being wrapped around Kuri kept him calm, but he still felt more seething hatred towards his brother. He could feel the anger boil around and he knew that he would take extreme measures against his brother. "I'm fine. My scar did not re-open, thankfully. Simple matter is that I hyperventilated and that is all. If it were not for my fire technique, I suppose I would not have been found" Unless she moved away from him or nudged him off, he would keep himself wrapped around her. She could see the scars on his arms at this point, the ones inflicted by Hajime. The shinobi of Kirigakure who were not alive at the time or were but newborns knew Hajime only as a murderer. Those of Kenshin's generation however knew of Hajime as a monster who harmed his own brother for sadistic reasonings. Kuri had been one of the four shinobi to see what true damage Hajime had inflicted on his little brother. The scars, the burns, and all more were what the iryo-nin saw on him when he visited. Slowly working his way to stand before her as he broke from her, he extended his hand down to her so that she could pull herself up easier using him as a tugging ground. But as she did, Kenshin accidently gave a strong tug when she did such. She would find himself against him and for once, in the moonlit night? She would see Kenshin's face show more then pain and agony. She could see surprise and a rosy blush come over his cheeks. "...sorry. I don't know my own strength sometimes."

He then wrapped her around in; his scent was strong on the cloak. Kuri was about to protest before she was engulfed in his arms, his warmth came over her, well now she was realizing how cold it was that evening, her face became even redder. She blinked slowly, shifting her head, only catching sight of the side of his head. It broke her heart, hearing the sadness in his voice. So, that covered that, there was no intended violence no one harmed, just very upset. Kurisuntina glanced a little further down, steam left his nose, as a part of the extra chakra and his special element release, Kenshin was a real piece of work from the gods. She then rested her head on his shoulder, with his condition, she wasn’t sure how to keep him calm or what would keep him calm, but so far he seemed well, just one little step at a time. It was reassuring news that none of his scares had opened up, it built bile in the back of her throat thinking that his brother did that to him. Everything he did was messed up and sick, luck for her she was more in the background safe but then part of her felt upset that she wasn’t there. But that time, she was learning to become the medic that she today, life was such a double edged sword. Not only that but she was one of the few to catch up with Kenshin to see his wounds, it was such a bloody night and one that haunted her from time to time in her sleep. But he just had simple hyperventilation and he was right if it wasn’t for his fire technique he probably would’ve been found tomorrow, that would’ve caused pandemonium among the village. She then looked up, her head sliding off his shoulder he hoisted himself up and then brought his hand up. Hers came out from under his cloak, taking his hand. It happened so quickly, she found herself very close to his chest. Kuri looked up to his face his agony grew even more with color crossing his cheeks which in turn made her go mad red as well. The setting was romantic but the feelings were conflicted. “It’s fine, I know you’re a strong ninja.” She lightly pulled away from him to get some of the cool night air and to collect her thoughts. “Uh, um, if you feel any quicken breathing, dizziness, feeling faint please get yourself to the emergency room.” Kuri crossed her arms. What was she doing! They were in the right spot to have their romantic moment and she just pulled away and gave medical advice, smooth Kuri, real smooth. [/style]

But she could see that he simply not put that mask on. His emotions were readable in his eyes. Bowing his head after a moment, he spoke a soft sorry once more and rose up. In his eyes she could see it even if he couldn't: Reciprocated love started to cover the pain and agony. A shining hope perhaps for the both of them. "I will do so, Kuri-chan" Catching himself a little too late, he cursed himself mentally while the Yonbi laughed it up. He had promised himself to never fall in love again and yet the kind-hearted pink haired iryo-nin had slowly taken his heart and yet he could never tell her. He wanted her to be safe and with his life, she would never be safe. He knew that a time would come when he would be killed and he could not make her suffer like that. "I will...uh...guide you back to the hospital or wherever you wish, Kuri. There are some...less then savory folk that walk the streets at night." The Yonbi snorted at that, because Kenshin had unintentionally shown that he cared and that his mask was breaking for good. As Kenshin stood there, a cold wind picked up and his hair flowed with the wind. He kept his eyes on her and then slowly extended his hand to her for her to take. The gesture was kind but there was enough emotion behind it that would be part of the shell that was no longer strong. Though the same goofy Kenshin was long gone, the Kenshin that would rise in time was something of another nature.

Kuri turned her head; hope seemed to enter into his eyes a small grin crossed her face. It was close enough, the happiness that has entered into his sight; so despite her orders that amused him slightly and at least he agreed to what she said. Kuri looked up to sky and pressed her lips together in thought. “If you could walk me home, I wouldn’t mind.” Of course Kuri could’ve taken care of herself but she wanted to be with Kenshin a little long, as he brought his hand out she brought hers out and took it, it engulfed her hand and was very warm. The breeze picked up brushing her hair around, a slight frown overcame her face thinking that he would wear his cloak once more but thanks to his own heating system he didn’t need worry about the cold as much as she or other ninjas needed to worry about. Kurisutina had hoped that she was break through to him, it felt like it as his hand gripped onto hers. She would never disappear from his life, even if it killed her, he needs a supporter in his life now and that’s what Kuri would be in his life. Some of the people she knew frowned about that saying he needed to be alone to get his own life back together but she didn’t care it was just part of her personality to stand by people through thick and thin no matter the situation.

As they passed through the streets, Kenshin was on guard and perhaps it was such a nature that made him a bit more on the cute side. As they passed by the hospital to get to her home, Kenshin's face twisted as he took a whiff of the air. Whatever it was, they continued. When they had gotten the most lit part of Kirigakure, that is when problems appeared. Six men appeared around Kenshin and Kurisutina. Kenshin immeditely stepped in front of her as the men sneered. They kept a tight circle and slowly began to creep in closer. Kenshin's hand broke from hers but as it did, she would see the flare of his bijuu's chakra start to form around him. Whoever these men were, they had picked the wrong fight. As they began to leap in, Kenshin's hands went up into a few hand seals. Suddenly, his right fist was covered in rock and one of the men found themselves on the ground with cracked ribs. One by one, they fell and Kenshin found himself gripping one by the throat far too tight to be healthy. The steam billowed off Kenshin as he seethed with anger. The man looked at Kenshin with a grin despite the pain. Kenshin's eyes burned with anger and he seemed to know just who these were by how he reacted. "I thought you learned your lessons?" "You think this is the last attack, demon? We'll get you and your pretty girl too. You can't hide from us..." Had it not been for Kenshin remembering that Kuri was there and that she did not need to see his feral side, he tossed the man back and looked to the groaning and withering men. He spat something on the ground and Kuri would recognize it as blood. Kenshin was hurt, but he didn't seem to be hit anywhere. Kenshin shook his head and in the brief glimmer of moonlight, she would see it. His face was scratched through by a kunai. "Go and recover. You aren't worth my time" His voice, this time around, had an echo to it. A second voice underneath his own and then she would see it. Lava coated his wound and then fell off to reveal the wound healed. As the men picked themselves up and ran, Kenshin looked to Kuri and offered her an apologetic smile. He then stepped closer to her and scooped her up into his arms bridal style. "Not risking anything. I can't lose you because of close minded fools or because of my anger." With that, Kenshin set off onto the roof tops, dashing across them as he made haste to get her to her home. Up close, she would see the worry in his face that hid behind some form of happiness, perhaps he had been wanting to do this for some time or hoped to do it down the line. As they progressed through the village, his black hair whipped back to give her a full on look at the face of the man she fell in love with.

The pair then suddenly stopped when a group of men surrounded them, she frowned but then looked up to Kenshin stepped in front of her attempting to block her from the men’s sight. As they crept further closing the circle more in Kuri stepped closer to Kenshin’s back, placing a hand on his shoulder, looking at the men. Kenshin then started to glow from the bijuu’s chakra once more feeling the prickling sensation of his chakra in the cold air. Then the attack commenced, she didn’t flinch at the sound of the men’s ribs cracking from Kenshin’s jutsu, well there were a few patients she might see tomorrow. Kuri didn’t know whether or not to be on guard since they were all out from his attack, but one man looked up at Kenshin his face becoming flushed from the lack of air getting into his body, she felt the difference between both men in front of her, like it was predator and prey getting in their last words. It seemed like everyone wanted to test Kenshin, he had them beaten hands down, and with the Yonbi he was slightly invincible. Her blue eyes became cool once the man threatened both of them. Her teacher had taught her pretty much everything about medical jutsu and how they aren’t just for healing but could also harm the body. All the threat was to her was petty just like the man; she linked her arms behind her back but then jumped back slightly seeing the glint of a kunai flew and then to Kenshin as he shook his head. It was dark, night always had that effect on blood, instead of it being bright red like in the morning or afternoon sun it was like the moon was being more gentle in confusing the mind into think the blood was black. Her eyes then widened up slightly, hearing the echo, deep down she hoped he wasn’t going to do anything irrational. Not only that but she should heal his wound but it looked like his body was doing it all on its own, lava covered the wound and slowly broke away showing smooth skin were the wound was at. She then realized her hands were up as if she were going to stop him so she could do her thing, she felt kind of foolish so she put them down as he turned and looked down at her. A concerned frown was on her face but it quickly turned to shock as he picked her up. “Yeah; but, yeah?” She held onto his shirt as he jumped up onto the roof tops, those were the only words to come out as her thoughts raced. The wind made her hair whip around quickly, her eyes narrowed attempting to keep them open from the wind friction. Kuri looked up to his face, conflict was in his eyes, if one paid enough attention to certain people they ended up become open books after a certain amount of time, to Kuri that’s what Kenshin was. Kuri then looked down over at the passing village, the housing area was coming into view, she rest her head on his chest, hearing and feeling his heart beat which raced, pretty soon she felt her heart sync up; the body was such a weird thing. “Thank you for protecting me.” She mumbled into his chest, taking him in.

As wind exploded outward from where he landed, he moved towards her door and--with her help of course-- got the door open. Closing it behind him, he set her on her feet and smiled at her. A smile of genuine kindness and maybe something more. As he cast his goldenrod eyes around a moment, he took the time to analyze her home. As he set his eyes on her again, he spoke. "Well, here you are." He bowed his head and turned to leave, but the Yonbi urged him on to not leave just like that. His hand was on the handle as he thought a moment on what to do before his hand dropped and he turned. A silence was all that he gave as his mind furiously worked at what to do. When he decided, he wasted no hesitation on it and leaned in, kissing her cheek. Warmth would flood through her and then he spoke again. "Sleep well, Kurisutina-chan. I dare not extend my stay." Without any further word, he left. Well, he exited her house and closed the door behind him and simply stood there. His mind was conflicted and he needed to get away. But his body and his mind disagreed at this point and the Yonbi could only laugh at his misfortune. Slowly he began to trudge forward, rather then do it the faster way. Are you really going to leave her like that? I can't just stay there. Why not? Because you don't want to get close to her? Kenshin didn't answer, and despite the fact he left his cloak with her? He continued to move fine within the cold night of Kirigakure. He came to a stop as he looked around him. He saw some lights and in them, he could see happy families. Sighing, he looked foward and found suddenly in a grip. His throat was grasped onto and he could barely see his opponent. When his eyes settled on who it was, his eyes went wide. "Hello, brother." With that, Kenshin and the figure simply disappeared.
