"Sohma-kun! Dinner's ready!" Tohru called out from the kitchen. "Kyo-kun! Shigure-san!"
An orange-haired teen stmbled down the stairs, closely followed by a dark-haired man in a yukata.
"Tohru-chan! So what's for dinner tonight?" asked Shigure cheerfully. "Leek soup?"
Kyo yelped and glared at Shigure.
"No, no," Tohru hastened to reassure him. "It's just udon tonight."
The three of them sat down around the table, a steaming bowl of noodles before each of them. Then Tohru noticed the empty seat.
"Um…where's Sohma-kun?"
"I think he's outside pottering around his stupid garden. Baka nezumi, worried about his disgusting leeks because of the rain…" Kyo answered carelessly, shuddering at the mention of leeks.
Silence as Kyo realised what he just said, and as Shigure and Tohru digested what they just heard.
"Shit!"
Shigure leapt up and dashed out into the storm. 'Rain' was an understatement for the waterworks the weather as providing. Shigure was hoping that Yuki had the sense to forsake his strawberries and leeks to take shelter instead, but one glance was all it took to see that Yuki had, in the end, prized his plants before his health. He was sprawled on the ground, completely soaked through. He wasn't moving, and Shigure almost thought he was dead.
It was only when the accursed man had finally splashed to his side that he realised that although Yuki was not dead, he was still barely alive and conscious. Every breath he took was hard won, and now and then his breathing hitched, making air all the more difficult for him to get.
"Shit, shit, shit!" He swore, picking up the limp boy. He hugged Yuki tight, trying to restore warmth to him, and dashed back to the house, swearing all the way.
"Sohma-kun! Shigure-san, is he alright?" Tohru was almost in tears as she caught sight of them.
"He's having an attack, call Hatori! Quickly!" snapped Shigure breathlessly. "Kyo! Get him a blanket, now, now, NOW!"
Tohru hurried to the phone, and Kyo, grim-faced and surprisingly with no quick retort, hastened to comply as well. He grabbed the first blanket he saw and rushed back to Shigure. Shigure, though wet himself, was busy too, stripping Yuki of his drenched clothes.
"What on earth are you doing?!" Kyo was astounded at the sight.
Shigure was in no mood to bandy words with him, not when Kyo's fate hung in the balance. "I'm taking his clothes off, idiot! He can't stay in his wet clothes. Hurry, pass me that blanket!" The said blanket was hastily wrapped around Yuki, who was now shivering violently and gasping for all the air he could get.
"I called Hatori; he's on his way," Tohru ran into the room, tears now freely flowing. "Oh no, oh no, oh no…"
Shigure hugged Yuki tighter, silently willing him to stop shaking and for his breathing to even out. Kyo was biting his lip, swearing under his breath as he grudgingly worried for his enemy. "Baka nezumi…!"
All in all, the few minutes that passed were one of the grimmest moments the three conscious members of Shigure's household ever experienced. Then an angel burst in from the rain, in the form of a wet and breathless Hatori.
"I got here as fast as I could, how's Yuki?" The sentence was garbled and rushed. Then Hatori caught sight of Yuki himself. "Oh, shit."
"Exactly," sighed Shigure, as Hatori hurried over. It was going to take more than wishes, and even Hatori, to get Yuki through this.
