Chapter Two

Tohru and Yuki stared down at Kyo. Tohru had a look of that would be described as confuzed and Yuki's was one of blankness. Tohru raised her hand and pointed at Kyo and the girl with black and red hair.

"H...He didn't tran...transform..?" Tohru murmured.

"Hai," Yuki replied. "That's -"

"Emiko?" Kyo shouted. He pulled the girl off of him and looked at her.

"I kept my promise, Kyo-kun," she stated.

Her hair wasn't like it used to be, it now had red stripes through out it and longer, like Tohru's, although her dark violet eyes had remained the same. She wore the same uniform as Tohru and her smile was bright. She looked away breifly, biting her lower lip, then she turned back and kissed him.

"I missed you, Kyo-kun," she whispered in his ear.

She stood up and smiled. Kyo stood up and stared at her for a minute. He jumped back and pointed a finger at her.

"Emi! Y...You kissed me!" he shouted.

"Yea, so?" Emiko asked. She glanced behind her and noticed Yuki. She smiled, "Yuki-san, how've you been?"

"Fine, Emiko-kun," he replied.

Tohru was still pointing at her. Emiko laughed and Tohru unfroze and lowered her hand. Emiko bowed.

"Forgive my rudeness, Tohru-kun. I am Saihna Emiko, you may call me Emi," she stated.

"Ah, nice to meet you. You must be part of the zodiac," Tohru stated.

"Not exactly," Emiko replied.

Kyo suddenly wrapped his arms around Emiko. Her eyes went wide for a breif moment and her face was full of surprise. She relaxed and smiled with eyes closed. Yuki took Tohru's hand and began to lead her to school.

"Sohma-kun, but -"

"Just c'mon, Tohru-kun," Yuki stated.

"Eh, hai."

Yuki and Tohru disappeared around the corner and Kyo still had his arms around Emiko's shoulders. She raised her hands and put them on his and held them. they stood there for a long time. Just in silence and holding each other. Well, until Emiko jabbed Kyo in the gut. He gripped his stomach and she turned around to him.

"Kyo-kun! You were supposed to have trained, like I was!" Emiko shouted.

"I w...was -"

"Then how come you couldn't block that?" Emiko shouted. She knelt in front of him and smiled. "You've gotten stronger, though. I can tell."

"Yeah."

Kyo looked up and her and punched her in the arm. She laughed and stood up. Kyo grabbed her legs and flipped her over his back. He rested her on his shoulder and began to walk back to the house.

"Eh, Kyo-kun?W...Where are we g...going?" she asked.

"Just wait," he replied.

Emiko sighed and relaxed. She folded her arms and put them on Kyo's back and rested her chin on them. She smiled and looked over to Kyo's face.

"I like the veiw," she giggled.

"Shuddup, Emi," he replied sarcasticly.


Kyo walked into the house alone. Shigure was sitting there with the paper and glanced up. Kyo sat down in front of him silently.

"Kyo?" Shigure asked.

"I felt like telling you something. So, you can come on in, now," Kyo stated.

"Kyo, what -"

Emiko opened the door and stepped in. She cuped her hands in front of her and bowed. She stayed quiet and in that position briefly then straightened. She stared at Kyo then Shigure. You could tell she was nervous of scared about being here. Shigure stood up and walked over to her. She stared up at him and then looked away.

"Emi-kun, welcome back," Shigure stated and he hugged her.

She jumped then smiled. Kyo was angry now. That pervert was hugging her! Kyo stood up and walked over to them. He glared up at Shigure.

"Shigure, you can let her go now," Kyo stated.

"Oh, right," Shigure muttered as he released.

Emiko stepped back and looked down. She bowed again and returned focus on Kyo. You could tell she was either nervous or scared. On that night four years ago she had done something wrong, which ended in hurting Kyo, the rest of the Sohma house and the Saihna house.

Shigure glanced over to kyo who was now staring down at Emiko. His eyes were trying to tell her something. And maybe she understood.

"Shigure-san? I know I don't have a right to asked, but may I stay here for awhile? Please?' Emiko asked as she bowed her head in respect.

"Uh, well?" Shigure sighed. What was he going to do?

She leaned up into his face and raised her hands to her chest. "Please, Shigure-san! I don't think I can deal with Hianoto-san after he finds out I'll be attending school with Sohmas! Please!" she begged.

Kyo ran up behind her and cupped his hand over her mouth. She closed her eyes and lowered her hands from her chest and rested them on her sides. He released her and she remained quiet and still. She began to shake and tears ran down her face.

"Please...Shigure-san...I j...just can't sta...stay with hainoto-san right n...now. He knows tha...that Kyo is here a...and that I'll find aw...way to see him. So, I...I...I just want to stay away from the Saihna house," Emiko finished.

"Well, I'd have to check it with Akito -"

"What? No!" Emiko shouted. She pushed past Kyo and swung the door open. She jumped the porch and landed. She started running and didn't look back. Kyo turned to Shigure with a glare.

"See what you did! You know not to mention Akito around her!" Kyo shouted. He sighed and ran after her. "Emiko, wait up!"

I'm sorry, Kyo. It's just like before now. she thought.

Emiko's pace slowed and she finally stop. She stood there and it started to rain. kyo stopped and stood about twelve feet behind her. She was silent. She turned her head and smiled. She was pale and her cheeks were flushed. her smile faded and she passed out.

"Emi!" Kyo shouted. He ran for it and caught her before she hit the mud. "E...Emi?"

"Kyo-kun..." she whispered, then she faded into complete unconsiousness.


"Eh..?" Emiko sat up slowly and rubbed her face.

"Ah, I'm glad to see you're awake," Tohru stated.

She walked in with a tray. it had some hot tea and riceballs on them and an assortment of other things. She sat down beside Emiko and she smiled. Emiko just stared at her in surprise. Tohru sat the tray next to her.

"I thought you might be hungry when you woke up," Tohru stated.

"Eh, hai. Thank y...you," Emiko replied.

Tohru smiled and got up. She began toward the door then turned around. Emiko stared up at her as she took a bite of a riceball.

"I'll be back soon. I'm just going to check on Kyo-kun," Tohru stated and left.

"Kyo-kun..."

Emiko bowed her head. She began to cry softly. Her body began to shake as she wiped her sleeve across her face, stealing away the tears. She closed her eyes tightly and cried more.

"Kyo-kun...this is all turning out wrong. I...I...I just wanted to see you again and -"

"Emi-kun?" Tohru entered. Emiko turned up and their eyes locked.
