Chapter One: The Idea

"Damn that stupid rat." Kyo muttered to himself as he walked away from the house that his long term rival resided in.

He'd just got beaten again. Just like he always did. It pissed Kyo off, to always be the weaker one. He is the cat, he is supposed to cause the rat to tremble with fear, not get his ass handed to him. Especially in front of Tohru, the beautiful and innocent Tohru. The only one person Kyo shows his soft side too. She's his weakness, his kryptonite.

He's loved her since the moment he laid eyes on her that day he exploded through the roof. He was addicted to her touch since she tried to stop him and the rat from fighting that one fateful day. Her long brown hair and big blue eyes leave him in a trance every time he enters her presence. Talking to her proves to be difficult for Kyo. His being brought up with little people to talk to and no friends hinders his social skills.

He wants so badly to show her how much he cares, how much he yearns to be with her, but she's captivated inside of the rat's nest. Yuki's nest of endless mystery and sweet kindness. If only Tohru knew that it was all just a façade. That the Yuki she thinks she knows is nothing compared to the Yuki he grew up with.

Yuki was a cold hearted child who was treated like a prince. He was always favored by Akito. He got everything and anything he wanted. While Kyo got nothing. Not even an act of kindness or a smile. Kyo was frowned upon because of the ancient tale of the Zodiac. He was pitied and was considered unapproachable.

Kyo hated Yuki for having the things that he couldn't have. He envied him for having friends and family. But secretly, he did feel bad for Yuki, just a little bit. Yuki was but through hell when it came to pleasing Akito. To Akito, Yuki was a toy. To Yuki, Akito was his worst nightmare come to life.

Kyo sat under a nearby shady tree and decided to think about some plans he could use to finally beat that dammed rat. He closed his eyes and breathed in the smells of the surrounding woods. It was like he was at peace for a moment. He'd always enjoyed being outside.

He felt the unconsciousness ready to overtake him and send him into another useless dream. Just as he was about to close his eyes, however, he got the most brilliant idea. The best way to show that rat, he couldn't win at everything.

Yuki cherished Tohru just as much as Kyo did, maybe even a bit more, if possible. So what'd he would do was, Kyo would take Tohru away from Yuki. This was quite the risky task, but if it meant showing that rat that Kyo wasn't a loser, he'd do it without hesitation.

Kyo almost second thought it because of what he knew what would happen. Yuki would punish him again. Yuki may seem like a kind and calm spirit about things, but with Kyo, he was ruthless. He was hardcore and didn't hold back. It sometimes left Kyo motionless for days.

Nevertheless, Kyo was prepared to do whatever was needed. Just as long as he got to see that rat sweat, and worry, even if just for a moment. Then he'd be complete, he'd finally be satisfied.
