Chapter Two:

(Editor: This is the chapter that everyone always complains about being.. too... graphic.. But come on. You cannot deny that if it wasn't... graphic it wouldn't be very interesting.. They also always say that it was my fault that the... graphic-ness started.. but I beg to differ! I just made it.. amusing. You'll thank me once you've read it!)

(TheColourOfMagic)A few hours, many tears and several arguments about socks, later, Akito was standing in some corridor, somewhere in Shigure's house. Alone: Shigure and Ayame had gone off to the Onsen for a day; Yuki, Kyo and Tohru were out... Akito was all alone to visit his beloved's room... he could find out what she liked, what she hated.. he jumped around a bit with glee. And then froze in horror as he heard the front door opening and Kyo's voice coming through. Not wanting to find out what would happen if Kyo- or anyone, for that matter- discovered him there he dived into the nearest room he could find and climbed into a wardrobe.

Looking at the room through the crack in the wardrobe door, he guessed that it was Shigure's bedroom. Akito felt depressed. Why couldn't it have been Tohru's room? Why did everything go wrong for him? Why did Shigure have a manicure set in his wardrobe?

All of a sudden, the bedroom door opened and Yuki, Haru and Kyo walked in.

"...you can stay here," Yuki said to Haru. "Shigure won't be back until tomorrow."

"Will you stay with me?" said Haru.

Yuki looked unimpressed. "No."

"Pleeaasseee?" Haru said.

"No."

"Pleeeeeeeaaaaasssseeeeee?" Haru whined.

"FINE!" Yuki yelled. "I'll stay here!"

"Yuki!" Haru cried happily. "I always knew you loved me!" He kissed Yuki, who didn't seem to appreciate it very much. Akito felt slightly sick.

"HEY!" Kyo yelled at Haru, pulling him away from Yuki, "Keep your hands off my rat!"

Yuki looked amazed, "Kyo... do you mean that? I... I thought you hated me..."

"I was afraid of what would happen if I stopped hating you." Kyo said. "I... I didn't know..."

Akito nearly choked as Yuki pulled Kyo into a kiss.
"What about me?" Haru said, pouting. "I've loved Yuki since I was a kid..."

"You can come along too," said Yuki, dreamily gazing at his new partners.

Akito, scarred for life at this recent turn of events, was trying hard not to be sick in the bottom of the wardrobe.

(kikijio)"But I want to be on top." Yuki declared, suddenly.

Akito gasped, nearly choking on one of Shigure's shirt sleeves.

"Whaaat? But you're more girly than both of us!" Shouted Kyo.

"Yeah," chimed Haru, "plus, I'm the Ox. I don't need to take that from a rat..."

"But I thought you loved me..." Yuki whined.

It was right about then that Akito fell out of the wardrobe... shuddering slightly.

"A victim!" Haru yelled joyously, "He can go underneath!"

"Good idea!" Yuki and Kyo chimed simultaneously.

"Oh Kyo... I feel like I can really connect with you" sighed Yuki, who then proceeded to put his hands down Kyo's pants. While Haru sat on top of Akito. (Ed: Don't worry! It doesn't get more graphic than this. I promise! This is pretty much the worst/best of .. "it" right here.)

"AAARGH!" screamed Akito, who rolling across the floor. Only managing to break free because Haru had gone to get his video camera and Yuki and Kyo were slightly preoccupied... with each other's.. tails.

(Raindropz)Shigure walked into his house, whistling a merry tune. He had been mean to his editor again, and he and Ayame had enjoyed a delightful bath together at the Onsen (where Aaya had stayed behind). He noticed that there was an odd silence in the house. Where was everyone? However, suddenly there was a loud bang, a thump and a whiny-type scream, all coming from upstairs.

Walking upstairs, he opened the door to his room, revealing... an odd scene.

Akito was lying on the floor, his hands over his head. Haru was looking at him, half-dressed. Yuki and Kyo were completely undressed and doing something...

"Welly, welly, well then," said Shigure. "What have we here?" Everyone looked at him.

"Playing some sort of game are we?" He sighed and shook his head. "Kyo, Yuki... As your guardian, I'm afraid I have no choice... BUT TO JOIN YOU!!!" (Anyone who didn't see that coming, raise your hand and hang your head in shame. -Ed) He happily began to take his clothes off.

"GET OUT!" Shouted Kyo and Yuki.

"Now, now boys," said Shigure sternly. "I'm not going to be doing this sort of thing everyday... (kikijio) honestly, it's more like every other day.. and seeing as Ayame is away I need to be satisfied. So..." Shigure stated, undoing his belt. "Please lie down over there."

"NOOOOOOO!" Wailed Akito. "I can't take anymore of this!" But it was too late... Haru had taken off his pants and Shigure was already naked. Yuki and Kyo, however, had shut themselves in the wardrobe and strange nibbling sounds could be heard coming from their general direction. "Well... it seems it's just the three of us.." sighed Shigure. Which one of you is going to be underneath first?... As the dog, naturally I'm on top."

(TheColourOfMagic) Akito decided that was enough for him and panicking, threw himself out the window, landing painfully in a heap on the ground. Right at Tohru's feet.

"Um... Akito-san?"

Akito looked up. And felt happy again.

"What were you doing in Shigure-san's room?"

Akito averted his eyes.. Panicking again.

"I.. I.. I was just..."

Shigure's head and upper body emerged from the window.

"Come back here you naughty boy!" called Shigure. "Naughty! Trying to escape..."

Tohru's jaw dropped. Akito ran.
