Hey,

My mad fanboy passions strike again. In the tradition of "I've Got a =
Theroy About Turtles" I present to you the Kenshin cast singing their =
version of the song "Walk Through the Fire" from Bufffy: The Musical. =
The setting is the start of the Kyoto Arc. Enjoy!

BTW, therir will be a "story" section to go with this just like with =
"Turtles".

Kenshin
I touch my sword and it chills me
I look at the blade and it's red
What is this I feel?
Shadows of my sins again become real
I want to be rid of my past

Now through the flames he calls to me
To make my way across these plains
To save the day or the Meiji will burn away
Nothing will ever be the same

So I will walk to the fire
To my friends' help I cannot turn
I will walk to the fire
And let it - -


Saito
The grudge I bear rages within me
Of Kenshin's skill I've no doubt
I hope he fries
But at my hands he will die!
I better help him out...


Shishio
Cause he is drawn to the fire


Shishio: Some fools never learn / Saito: He will never learn


Saito & Shishio
And he will walk to the fire
And let it - -


Kaoru
What changes will this cause him?
Could our life together be at the end?
Is my Kenshin to be gone forever?


Megumi
What if Kenshin can't defeat him?


Yahiko
Fox Lady is right
We're needed!
...Or we could just sit around and stare


Yahiko, Kaoru, Sanosuke, Aoshi, and Megumi
We'll see this through
It's what we'll always do
So we will walk to the fire...


(Kenshin and Sanosuke's following verses overlap.)


Kenshin
So one by one I turned from their pleas
I know my friends are strong and bold
But this kind of danger, not one among them knows
And never can be told


Sanosuke
What can't we fight
If we're together?


(These three parts are sung mostly in unison.)
PART I


Yahiko
He left here his soul much graver


Saito
First, I'll kill Shishio,, then I'll kill him


Sanosuke
This isn't going to be a walk in the park


Saito
No, I'll help Kenshin, then I'll kill him


Aoshi
I'll beat Kenshin and my victory I'll savor


Kaoru
Has this happiness been just fate's lark?


PART II


Kenshin
Going through these mountains
Walking to the past
My joyful days are finally ending in a blaze


PART III


Shishio
So one by one they come to me
My burning fury as their guide
That single flame
Isn't what they have in mind
It's all I have inside=20
He will come to me


Kenshin, Yahiko, Kaoru, Saito, Sanosuke, Aoshi, and Megumi
And we are drawn to the fire
This is the point of no return
So we will walk to the fire
And let it
Burn
Let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn!


Shishio (spoken)
Showtime...


Just a final word, in the Buffy version of the song fire meant the =
conflicts the Scoobies dealt with to keep each other safe. Here, in my =
mind, the fire is the destined conflict in Kyoto. Cool fact: Let It Burn =
is the name of on of the Kenshin soundtreack fetureing music from the =
Kyoto Arc.
