Kami couldn't believe it! He stared at his cell phone but there it was. A message from Shigure.
'Kyo has returned and is staying with me. Akito ordered it. If you want to come and stay here I'll let you share a room with him. Love Shigure.'
He bit his lip and looked down the rundown shack he'd lived in since birth. He knew he was Sohma but had never had much contact with the family. He made up his mind. He found packed his bags after finding the best clothes he owned. A dress he had just made. He liked wearing girl clothes. It was a nice powder blue sundress. He made his own clothes because it was cheaper. He quickly headed out. His hair was short and messy though messier more on one side than the other. He always pinned that side down with a bunny clip.
He was soon at the Sohma Main house. He touched the buzzer.
"Uhm... my name is Ookami Sohma." he said into it "I would like to see Akito Sohma, please?"
The gates opened and a woman ushered him in. He followed his head down. He was scared of girls. A side effect of being beat by his mother. He left his bag where he was told and shown into a room that four older men were in. He sat on his knees before them and bowed.
"So you're Ookami Sohma?" the youngest of the four men said, " We've never met. I am Akito."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, sir. " he bowed again. "I got a call from my father a few days ago saying you would meet me today, sir."
"That's right. " Akito replied, "I was told you were a boy."
"I am, sir!" Kami blushed but other than that showed no emotion. He couldn't he'd learned at a very young age showing emotion only got you hurt . "My mother... I'm used to wearing girl clothes, sir. "
"I see. It seems she could do better." Akito snipped, "We are paying her to take care of you."
"I dont know anything about that, sir. We are very poor. We live in a small shack and hardly ever have money to eat. I make my own clothes because it's cheaper that way."
"We pay her a lot of money."
"As I said , sir , I don't know anything about that."
"Where is your mother she was supposed to come with you today?"
"I have not seen my mother in several months." Kami replied, " I do not know where she is. "
The men across from him exchanged looks.
"You face seems red are you well?" One spoke. "My name is Hatori. I am also a member of the Zodiac. "
"It's fine." Kami replied, lying his ass off. The dizziness was back and he was almost chocking on his coughs. "I often get sick."
"Hatori." Akito said, "Give Kami a check up before he goes home with Shigure."
"With Shigure?" Hatori asked, "He's going to live with you?"
"Kami happens to be very good friends with Kyo." Shigure laughed, "They've known each other since they were little. Since Kyo is staying at my house I figured that Kami would like to stay too."
"Yes, thank you." Kami bowed again, "thank you, Shigure. "
Akiro Sohma sighed as he hung up his cell phone. He looked at his new family. The one he had kept after getting rid of the wrench 16 years ago. he hadn't known she was pregnant until much later and was even more shocked when in turned out that his son was actually the forgotten member of the Zodiac. He had three children and a wonderful wife but how would they react to his eldest child.
"Dear." she smiled at him. "I have something i need to tell you."
"When will the boy be arriving?" Izumi asked, " Your eldest son. When will he be coming?"
The three children looked up then quickly focused on eating.
"You know about him?"
"You expected me not to?" Izumi laughed, " I've often wondered why he didn't live with you. I know you were married before."
"He will not be coming." Akiro replied, " He is going to live with Shigure. There are too many girls here."
"Is brother not wanting to meet me?" the youngest a girl called Kiri asked. "Brother not want meet me?"
"Kami is afraid of girls." Akiro replied, "it's nothing to do with you, sweetie."
"I want to meet brother!" his third son, Katchi cheered, " Can we go over to Shigure's?"
"How old is he?" the second son, Kashi asked. " Kami?"
"He's 16 and in High school. He'll have to get used to girls soon though as his high school is full of them. I offered to send him to an all boys school but he wants to be with Kyo."
"KYO!" Kagura screamed as she was thrown into the yard and Kyo grunted as he suddenly had Kami latching on to him. He gave a faint smile and embraced the boy . "KYO!'"
"it's okay." Kyo lay his cheek on Kami's black hair as the boy clung to him. " i'm sorry I just took off like that. I'm back now."
Kami nodded. they were sitting down around a table. A girl was near by that he didn't know but he didn't care. Kagura came back in and sat calmly next to the girl.
" everyone." Shigure sang. "As of today the forgotten member of the zodiac our lovable little Kami Sohma will be living with us. "
"You've got it out for me don't you?" kyo asked in a dangerous tone. "and where will he be sleeping?"
"In Kyo's room with Kyo." Kami said, "In kyo's bed with Kyo."
Kyo sweat dropped, "Of course."
He held the boy.
"Uhm...Kami is a girl?" the girl said.
"No," Kyo said shaking his head. "Kami is a 16 year old boy. "
"Kyo..." Kagura asked, "Uhm... who is this? The forgotten member? I've never met him before."
"Neither have I." Yuki replied, "I'm Yuki Sohma the Rat."
"Hello." Kami replied, he shook Yuki's hand. "Nice to meet you."
"I'm Kagura Sohma the Boar." Kagura replied "and Kyo is mine!"
Kami blinked and moved.
"I'm sorry." he mumbled gloom settling around him. "I didn't know. "
"I'm not hers, Kami!" Kyo quickly corrected, " She's crazy she doesn't know what she's talking about! I made you a promise didn't I?!"
Kami nodded and looked at Kyo. Kyo grabbed his arm.
"C'mon, Kami lets go to bed.!"
