KYO'S POV
"Tohru? You awake?" I said rolling over on the bed we've been sharing since we got married two years ago. "Hello Kyo! I am awake I'm just exhausted my boss had a lot of work for me to do but thats good because he said he's going to raise my salary." I smiled she always has a lot of things to say in one sentence. "Oh No!" she shouted. "Breakfast!"
"It's okay Tohru I could just make my own." I replied. "Kyo I'm making breakfast." Tohru protested. I was going to say something but I got cut off by the phone ringing. I picked it up.
"Hello."
"Is this Kyo?" Said a familiar voice.
"Hatori?" I replied he sounded worried.
"Oh I have something to tell you." He said with the same voice.
"What's wrong is someone hurt?"
"No it's just that... Kagura is back."
"But she moved to the U.S four years ago anyways isn't that a good thing or are you guys not happy to see her?"
"Well we were happy until we found out she changed."
"What do you mean 'she changed'"
"Well when she was in America she was in a gang she smokes and drinks and she got raped."
I clenched my fist.
"Me and Tohru will be there right away." I hung up the phone. "What's wrong?" Tohru said worriedly. "We have to go to Tokyo." I said. "But why?" So I told her everything about the gang the drinking the drugs the guns and the rape. When I was done Tohru was in tears. "Let's pack." She said.
We started packing grabbing a whole bunch of cloths and putting it our suite cases. Tohru packed breakfast and lunch for our train ride from Kyoto to Tokyo. We drove to the train station on a cab. "Are you ready?" I asked her. she nodded confidently. Her hair was up to her knees last year but are now up to her shoulder because she cut her hair for the Cancer Foundation. She was a giving person but she gives too much that's what makes me worried.
We got on the train. We were silent the whole train ride. How could this happen to Kagura, My cousin, My big sister. How? The train stopped and we got off.
Hatori was standing there ready to drive us to the estate. "Let's go" He said. We both nodded and went in the car. Hatori drove us until we got to the huge Sohma estate.
We went inside and saw everyone gathered together. "Hey guys." Rin whispered. Kisa, who was around 17 or 16, ran over and hugged Tohru. "Where's Kagura?" I asked. Before anyone could say anything Kagura came from behind the door. Her face was the same except for she had bags under her eyes and a huge bruise on her cheek. Her hair was the same length, she was wearing a torn up t-shirt that said 'let's play ball'. And black short shorts. Her hands had cuts all over it. "What?" she said sharply. "Whats wrong with you Kagura?" I said. "What's wrong with me? I'll tell you what's wrong with me. You guys. All of you are what's wrong with me." Tohru dug her face in my chest. "Kagura you can't blame any of us for what YOU did to yourself."
"I hate you all!" she screamed throwing her glass cup past my head and smashing into the wall breaking in little peices. "I screamed for all of you I screamed for Momiji, Haru, Rin, Kisa, Hiro, Yuki, Ritsu, Hatori,Shigure, Ayame, Kearuno, Akito, Tohru, and you Kyo. And which one of you showed up? NONE of you." She burst out of the room. We all looked down feeling guilty. "I'll show you where your going to sleep." Kearuno said getting up and walking through the hallway.
Tohru and I fallowed. He took us to a huge bedroom with doors to a bathroom I guess the estate was being fixed up. "thank you very much." Tohru said bowing down. Kearuno smiled. "Your welcome." He said before walking off. we walked in the room and lay on the bed. I put my head on Tohru's shoulder. "Its worse than I thought." I whispered. She sighed. "I just hope she gets better." Tohru looked so depressed. I remember before Kagura left her and Tohru would call each other twin sister and they would do everything together their hair groceries shopping all of that stopped when Kagura moved to the U.S. "I know you miss her" I said wiping way her tears. "When did this happen?" I said. "I'm gonna kill that damn bastard." Tohru looked up at me. "Kyo violence isn't going to change anything that's the only reason we're in this situation." I sighed. "I know I just I just wish she stayed in Tokyo where she's safe." Tohru smiled. "Me too Kyo sometimes I think of Kagura as my big sister." She stood up and walked over to the mirror she picked up a brush and silently brushed her short brown hair. Tohru suddenly stopped. She stared out the window in shock and horror. I ran to where she was and looked out the window. Sitting on a porch of the estate was Kagura with a cigarette in one hand and a bottle of vodka on the other. I looked at her in anger before slamming my fist to the wall leaving a big dent. Tohru grabbed my hand. "Kyo your bleeding." She ran around and came back with a first-Aida kit. She put rubbing alcohol on my hand then rapped it around with a bandage. "Kyo please." Don't hurt your self." she said bursting into tears then hugging me. I hugged her back. "I'm sorry" was all I had to say.
I woke up and Tohru was sleeping. I got off the bed quietly making sure not to wake her. I went downstairs but everyone was sleeping. I decided to go out side for some fresh air. When I went outside I saw Kagura sitting in the grass watching the clouds. "Go away." I heard her say. "Kagura please I miss you Tohru misses you we all miss you just please come back be Kagura again the annoying, fun, loving Kagura." I said. She sat up. "And you expect me to just snap my fingers and forget about everything." She snapped her fingers. "It doesn't work like that Kyo I can't forget about what he did to me I remember every second of it every time he touched me. I didn't just lose my virginity I lost my life. I can't forget that." tears streamed from her face. "The Kagura I was is gone I want her to be back but she just won't appear I'm a female gangster I love drugs and alcohol and that's all I think about every time I close my eyes I see cocaine, marijuana, booze, vodka. That's not all, I've been shot at so many times. These cut on my arms are from joining the gang." she pointed to her arms. She lifted her hair up off her head and showed me the back of her head which had a four inch scar on it. "This is from leaving the gang." She pointed to her bruised cheek. "This is from the rapist, so is this." She said pointing at her left thigh which had a big scar on it. "Do you think I can forget that." She whispered. I kept my tears in. "Kagura I'm sorry if I where there I would have beat the shit out of that guy." she swallowed. "But you were NOT there!" She shouted. I didn't know what else to do I grabbed her and hugged her. Her eyes widened. "Please don't be like my parents don't walk away don't die." I let go of her and headed back in. The house.
"Is she okay!" Rin said standing in front of me. "Well I talked to her a little." I replied. "Why does it have to be so complicated to just quite smoking and drinking and just forget about that day!" Rin shouted sitting on a chair and putting her face in her hands. "She can't forget. She said it her self she wants to forget, but she remembers every little second and she can't quit the drugs and alcohol she's addicted." I bit down on my teeth to keep me from shouting. "That bastard made her feel like she's hated. All of our sad faces does not look like sadness to her it looks like hatred." Rin looked up at me. Tears were rolling down her face. "Why Kagura why my baby sister." her eyes were red from crying. "And why my big sister? To that rapist it doesnt matter what she is to us, she was just another pretty girl walking alone."
"But why? Why couldn't she defend herself didn't she have guns hasn't she been in martial arts for years." Said Momiji coming from behind me still in pajamas. Then I snapped I was 17yr old Kyo again. "I DON'T KNOW! WHY DIDN'T SHE? I WASN'T THERE! MAYBE YOU CAN ASK HER THAT!" I breathed in. "I'm sorry I didnt mean to shout."I apologized. "It's okay." Momiji said. We stood in silence no talking no moving. "Mamma?" said a small voice. I turned around and saw 3 year old Kimiko Rin and Haru's daughter they're still not married but have a daughter. "Kimi-chan!" Rin cheered picking her up. "Kimi do you know who this is?" Rin asked pointing at me. Kimi thought for a moment then remembered. "Kyo-kun!" she shouted. "Yaaay your so smart!" Rin really was a great mother. "I'm gonna go eat breakfast okay?" I said walking into the kitchen. "Eggs! Eggs! Eggs!" I heard Kimi say.
KAGURAS POV
Today I had a dream. Not really a dream but a nightmare. It was exactly what happened to me that day. Nightmare: He grabbed me and punched me in the face he's started beating me and hitting me I was to weak to fight back. I called everyones names hoping and dying that they would show up. None of them did. I just cried and cried till I past out. I woke up in the hospital they said they didn't know were to take me I had no family here they decided to keep me in the hospital. I protested telling them that I would go back to Japan where my family was. They liked that idea the next day I was being shipped off to Japan. End of Nightmare.
My stomach rumbled from hunger and my mouth was dry from thirst. I hadn't drank or ate anything since yesterday's breakfast. I went in the house hoping Tohru made breakfast. I slid open the door. "Kagura! Good morning!" Tohru called. I ignored her and went in the kitchen. I filled my plate with eggs and onigri I grabbed a cup of orange juice and headed out the door. "Kagura!" Momiji called stopping me. I looked up at him. He's grown so tall over the years. "Can I have a piece of that onigri." he said pointing to my plate. I smiled. First time I smiled in probably a year. I gave him a piece and walked out the door.
MOMIJIS POV
"What a flirt!" Haru laughed. I frowned. "Well at least I made her smile!" I argued. "Ya Haru cut him some slack." Kyo said with Kimi-chan on his lap. "Okay. Okay." Haru said then apologized. "Kagura-chan seems likes she's in a good mood today" Tohru said. I made a sad smile. "I hope that good mood lasts." everyone suddenly became silent. "Oh no! The laundry I almost forgot!"Tohru shouted running up the stairs. "Maybe I should go help her. Come on Kimi." Rin said picking Kimiko-chan up from Kyo's lap. Haru stood up and walked away to do whatever Harus' do. "Kyo can I ask you something?" I said breaking the silence. "Sure what is it?" Kyo replied. "You never seemed to like Kagura why do you want to help her so badly now?" I asked. His eyes turned sad and suddenly I regretted asking that question. "When Kagura and I were young she treated me like a friend when all the other kids ignored me. She told me stories and made me laugh. Not long ago she told me that all of that was because she felt less like a freak when she was around me. I was glad she told me the truth and she grew up from who she used to be. The only reason I seemed like I hated her was because she was being annoying with all the 'You better marry me' shit. I want to thank her for helping me and making me feel like I had a friend when I was younger even if it was all fake." He responded with sad eyes. "It wasn't all fake." Kagura said walking up to us. "I may have planned it to be fake at first but then I really felt like I had a younger brother." she said with cold eyes. "I never had a brother and I never had a boyfriend, so that's why I kept mixing you up in those two categories." She swallowed. "I- You know what never mind!" She said bitterly then ran off. I stood up. "Kagura! Kagura come back!" I ran after her. I grabbed onto her hand and she yanked her hand away. "What do you want!" She screamed. "I just want help you." She stopped. "How! nothing anyone says will change me!" I looked at her then raised an eyebrow. "I'll give you my last Cheetoh." I grinned holding up the bag. She smiled for a moment then frowned. "Quit doing that!" she shouted. "Doing what?" I said feeling confused. "Making me smile or laugh! It's annoying! I'm supposed to be mad at you!" her face turned red which confused me again. She turned around and walked off. "Smooth." Kyo said from behind me. "What are you talking about?" I asked still feeling confused. Kyo shook his head smiling.
KAGURA POV
I was angry, sad, and flustered at the same time. I think he's just playing me. Ya that could be it. They're all playing me to point where I break. I made a right turn in the long Sohma hallway. But why does Momiji keep smiling like that it drives me crazy it's way too contagious. I shook my head. No never mind. I was too lost in my thoughts to notice where I was going and BONK. I accidentally knocked over Kimiko. "Oh my god! Are you okay?" I was shocked. I tried to pick her up but there was a look in her eyes. She was frightened. From me? Of course she had never seen me before and I left when she was too young to remember. In her eyes she was living a happy life until some wacko comes and starts making trouble. "P-please don't hurt me." She said still on the floor. "I'm not gonna hurt you kimi." I reached my hand out for her. But she backed away. "Kimiko that's not very nice. Haven't I taught you your manners. She your Auntie and you treat her like your Auntie." Rin said coming from in a room and smiling at me. Kimi looked at me then at her. She grabbed my hand and hugged me. "I'm sorry for being rude." She said. She let go of me then went with her mom. I was speechless why was SHE sorry. She did nothing wrong. "Kagura?" Someone said from behind me. I turned around and saw Tohru. Oh great I already had enough drama in one day. I sighed might as well be nice. "Yes?" I breathed out. "Yes Tohru?" she looked at me like she was studying me as if I were a book. She bowed down. "I'm sorry for being rude but may I ask you a quick question?" I sighed again. "Sure." She took a deep breath. "Why did you decide too come back after all these years?" I thought for a moment then remembered. "The doctor told me that I have no family in America their not just gonna hand me off to some stranger. So I told them I had family in Japan and I wanted to go there. They thought it wasn't a bad idea. So then next day I was shipped off to Tokyo."
"But why? Why did you decide you wanted to come back here wouldn't you rather be stuck at the hospital." Tohru asked. I looked at her in disbelief. How could she say I'd rather be stuck at a hospital then here. She saw my face expression and she was shocked. "I'm sorry! What right do I have to say what you where feeli-"
"You know what maybe I would rather stay at a hospital." I cut her off sharply. I wanted to slap her like I did so many years ago but I know I'll regret it. I ran away from her not looking back. I hated my life."
When I was outside I was smoking a cigarette. I looked down at my hand to look at the cigarette. Tears welled inside my eyes. What was I doing? Kagura smoking? No I don't want to stop. But I have to. I unlit the cigarette and threw it on the floor. I stepped all over it. I broke into tears. I cried and cried until I felt arms around me. I cried into whoever it is's chest. "It's okay shhhhhh." Momiji said. I looked up and stared into is clear blue eyes. He grew so much taller then me my head was only up to his chest. "Why did you let me go Momiji. Let me go to America? How could." he stroked my hair. "I'm sorry. But your such a determined person Gura-chan. You would have never stayed." Momiji put his chin on top of her head. "I'm sure you won't forget but you'll move on Kagura. Because Kagura Sohma is indestructible." Kagura smiled at his nice comment but then frowned. "No I'm not I crumble like bread. I'm useless."
