Without thinking, Igot up and answered the door. I then did a double take when I saw my classmate Lindsay staringback at me. She was a friend of mine ...hen I wasn't Jennifer, but she hadn't met my feminineside. I noticed she was holding a clipboard and had a button on that had the name of somecancer society on it. She started to ask if my dad was home when she stopped. She looked me inthe eyes and gasped. She had recognized me. She opened her mouth to fire questions at me, but Ipulled her. I was in a bed at the Oguni Clinic. So I never saw how Kaoru died. What I saw was the purified Kaoru in her shroud. She looked like a different person. Maybe that's why, even now, it doesn't feel like she's dead... And Kenshin... no one's seen Kenshin since. Sanosuke sent his friends out to search, but they haven't found him yet... Where would he go? He doesn't have anywhere to go back to but here... The man who killed her, Yukishiro Enishi, fled with his comrade under cover of the rust-colored. It's justsomething I can do." She shrugged again. "Well, me and about a hundredother people."Why?" I pulled against the straps holding me in place. I wasn't sure ifthe chick was crazy or if she was telling the truth. For all I knew,this could be some weird ass drug experience. Maybe some type ofhypnosis."Why? Well, multiple reasons, I guess. One, I was tired of being Gary." Gary?" I turned my head to look at the old man in the chair in themirror for a moment."Yes. I've been Gary for about. But it was a beautiful Sunday evening so I thought, why not!I’d been walking for some 15 minutes deep into the forest, when I noticed a 4x4 car and a tent attached to it, I didn’t think too much of it, but as circled around it I could hear some deep groans and aggressive and threatening language, I could hear a woman’s voice screaming … “You dirty bastards, your fucking sending me crazy … don’t shove that barrel’s up my cunt! … Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh … you dirty fucking perverts! … Please rotate it.
