"Kyo-kun, Yuki-kun!" Shigure shouted. "We have to leave! You know Akito dosen't like to wait!" "I don't friggin wanna go!" shouted Kyo from upstairs. "Well, you know what? You don't have a choice! Me and Yuki and Tohru have to go too!" Shigure shouted back. Tohru and Shigure waited as Kyo made his way down the stairs complaining and grunting. Yuki came down soon after, looking nervous, a blank look in his eyes. "Why would Akito suddenly call a meeting for all four of us?" he muttered to himself. "Don't sweat it Yuki, I'm sure its no big deal." Shigure said to him quietly. "Isn't Hatori driving us?" Kyo asked. "No, we have to catch a taxi... Lets go." Sigure replied, and started out the front door, the three of them following him. They walked through the woods silently until they came to the road and caught a taxi. "I wonder what the meeting is for." Said Tohru, breaking the silence. "We'll find out when we get there." Replied Kyo, then continued looking out the window into the dark night sky. They arrived at the Sohma main house minutes later and walked to Akito's. "Well, well, well, you all came." Said Akito in his whispery voice after they had all sat in front of him. "There seems to be a problem." Akito continued, "Hatori, our family doctor has fallen slightly ill with a cold, and I want one of you to take care of him, cook, and clean until he is well. You may talk amongst yourselves and decide who. I will be back in a few minutes." Akito rose and left. The four turned to each other. "I have a really important meeting at the publishing office tomorrow, so I don't think I'll be able to take care of Ha-chan." Shigure said sadly. "Tommorrow, my sensei who trained me in the mountains is coming to visit me and we already have plans." Kyo said.

"I definetly can't cook and if I try to clean his house it'll look worse than it started." Kyo said apologetically. "Well, I don't have plans and I can cook and clean." Tohru said happily. "Then its decided." Shigure said. They retreated to their sitting positions as Akito walked in. "Who have you chosen" Akito asked. "Tohru." Said Shigure. "OK, she'll stay the night with him and until he gets better." Replied Akito. "Can we drop some clothes of for her or something?" Asked Shigure. "No, she'll be fine. Now, take her to Hatori's and leave." Akito said briskly and left. They walked over to Hatori's and said by to Tohru. Tohru opened the front door and saw Hatori blowing his nose at the table. "Hi!" Tohru said cheerfully, "I'm here to take care of you!"
