A/N: Thank byakuyakuchiki363 and the guy who sits behind me in Biology class for this one. I needed to write one of my 100 themes. He picked the number, she picked the character and here it is. A drabble about Kyo. Enjoy and please review!
Traps
Kyo lay on the roof, enjoying the soft breeze that ruffled his hair. This roof was the perfect spot for him to hide. The small child was thinking very hard. He was thinking of all the ways he could be held down. Because even if he didn't know it yet, Kyo wanted to be free. Free of his family, free of his curse, free of his fate.
He knew that his father hated him. The child could feel the disgust and loathing emanating from the man. And his mother... she acted like she loved him, but there was something wrong there, too. Something he couldn't quite place. It was the reason he hated to be at home. And there was the rest of the Sohmas. Akito was determined to look down on him. The rest of the Zodiac probably hated him too, despite never meeting him.
Every time a girl hugged him, he would turn into a cat. That wasn't too bad, if a little embarrassing. The worst part of his curse was his true form. It horrified everyone who saw it. It ensured he would be alone for his whole life.
The isolated room honestly scared him. Though he didn't like his family, they were better than no one at all. If he could have one wish, it would be to spend his life "outside".
So that would be his goal. He would fight to the end for his freedom. Kyo made the resolution, then and there, not to be ensnared by the Sohma family.
