DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fruits Basket or any of the characters. I only own THIS story's plot.
KYO'S POV:
I woke up, rolling over, feeling them empty sheets beside, searching for my wife. I shot up. Empty? Where was Tohru?
"Tohru?" No answer. "TOHRU!" I yelled again. I got out of bed, hastily pulling on my clothes. The Sohma House. Maybe she went to visit Momiji… I thought desperately, but I knew that wasn't it. I knew something was wrong. I ran out of the house to Akito's house.
"Akito!" I screamed.
"Kyo! Come here! Quick!" Akito's voice called urgently.
I ran to her voice. When I got to the room, my heart froze. No. No! I rushed to Where Akito was, holding my wife, who was drifting away, blood pouring out of her, a knife laying near by.
"What happened?" I asked, kneeling down and stroking Tohru's face.
Akito handed her to her and I cradled her to my chest, whispering in her ear.
"Mizu-san, the servant. Sh-she stabbed her… because Ren, because my mother told her that Tohru was an evil witch…" Akito managed to get out.
Tohru's eyes fluttered.
"No!" I whispered fiercely in her ear. "Tohru! Listen to me! Stay awake! You can't go to sleep! Stay with me!" I begged.
"Get Hatori!" I yelled at Akito. "Go! Now!"
Akito nodded and stumbled off. I turned back to Tohru, stroking her face.
"K-kyo…"
"Shhh. I'm here, Tohru, I'm here."
"I l-love y-you."
"I know. I know. I love you, too." I said, tears streaming down my face. No. No, no, no! This couldn't be happening. Not Tohru.
People started running up to us. I pulled her closer to my chest, hugging her tightly.
"Tohru!" Momiji said, running up. Haru pulled him back, shaking his head.
I looked down at her. She was looking at me, her eyes staring past me.
"No…Tohru! No! Don't… DON'T LEAVE ME!" I yelled out, in anguish.
"Kyo...I-I'm sorry."
"No… Please, no…" I begged.
"I love you…" she murmured, as her eyes glazed over and closed, her body going limp in my arms.
"No!" I screamed pulling her closer to me. "No! Tohru! Wake up! Open your eyes! You can't go! Come back! I need you!" I yelled at her, tears pouring out of my eyes. My heart ached. This couldn't be real. This had to be a dream.
"Kyo." It was Shishou. "Kyo, let her go."
"No." I sobbed, holding her close.
"Kyo." he said in a softer tone. "She's gone."
"No! No! She's still here! She…she can't! She can't be gone! I can't…I…gone...no… TOHRU!" I cried.
"Kyo-" Shishou was cut off.
"Get out of my damn way! I wanna see Tohru!" I heard the Yankee yell. Uotani.
"Let them through." I said, my voice hoarse.
People parted, letting them through. They barged in and froze.
"Tohru…?" Yankee asked.
"She's gone. She's not here anymore." Wave-girl said softly.
"Wha-?" Yankee said. "You can't be serious! Kyo! Tell her she's wrong! She's still here, right?"
I couldn't say anything. I just pulled Tohru's body closer to me and sobbed into it.
"Oh, God. No."
"Kyo. Let her go. You know she's gone." Shishou told me once again.
I looked at my wife's body, limp in my arms. I cried as I kissed her. Then I pulled her against my chest and kissed her forehead. I took a deep breath and laid her down, letting her go. Forever.
AN: I know it's sad, but it's not over yet. Kyo and Tohru will be together again! I had this idea last night when I was trying to go to sleep. Please let me know what you think!
