She ran as fast as her weak legs would allow her to. She didnt want to go back there, but then again, she wasnt sure if it was him, she wasnt willing to take the chance.

This thing they reffered to as 'snow' fascinated her. It fell so easily from the sky, that she couldnt help but stare in wonder, and to think about how much she had missed out on.

She could still hear the screaming, and continued to run, Mina couldnt face him, not ever again, she didnt where she lived, but she needed to break this curse, to make sure no one else would have to go through the same thing.

Her tears continued to flow as she reached another unknown area, but she was sure it was no where near there, she hoped it wasnt.

Mina stoped running, and observed the things around her. She noticed she was ankle deep in white snow, and that it was getting dark, she gazed up at the sky, the colours were unknown to her, she had heard of them, such as red, yellow, orange and the other normal colours, but never once seen them, only shades of black, he said it was the colour that matched her soul.

She noticed how when her forgotten tears hit the cold snow, it seemed to change colour, she wished she could stop them from ruining the beautiful white, but she could never stop crying, there was never anything to smile about.

Darkness took over, she realised the run had set and the colours were gone, everything now was in the shadows, including herself.

"Look" a voice whisperd, Mina tensed, not knowing what was going on, or who the people were that were crowding around her.

"haha" one laughed evily, she didnt feel the same chill as she did when he laughed, but these men were starting to scare her, she needed to find somewhere to hide, this outside world was more dangerous then she had predicted.

"This could be fun..whats your name sweetheart?" he said, she glared at him, letting all her anger seep into her gaze, she wanted all of them to leave her alone, she didnt know what they wanted with her, but she could tell it wasnt good, Mina wasnt an idiot.

"Leave her alone" a voice growled, Mina looked around, tripping slightly, her feet were still buried in snow, she landed on her back, with a thud, she passed out again, it had been a long day.

****

She felt warmth wrapped around her, but didnt now where it was coming from. She didnt dare to open her eyes, afraid that he had found her again, and was just waiting to see the look on her face, like he had so many times before.

"Shes awake" a voice said, she reconised, the same boy she heard only moments ago, but Mina realised, when she opend her eyes, that it must of been hours ago, the sun had risen again.

"Who are you" the silver haired boy demanded, she looked at him, her tears were still there, this day wasnt going to be anydifferent then the rest.

She didnt look at him directly in the eyes, he didnt want her to answer, she new he was better off not knowing, she ignored him, until he finally left the room, leaving only the orange haired boy, the one she reconised.

"Hes looking for you" he said, she looked at him again, he wasnt looking at her, but instead at the floor.

"Kyo Sohma" he said, Mina took this as an introduction, she didnt tell him her name, she didnt want to speak to him, besides, her name was never to be spoken.

"Kitten" she whisperd, she had heard him this Kyo before, he was supposed to be a monster, but Mina didnt see how, when she was the one who was not to be spoken of, she was the one supposed to be locked away forever and forgotton, he lived on the outside, he was free, even if not forever.

Kyo heard her speak, he was confused, Akito had told them she never spoke, and that she was probely to dumb to know how, but Akito called everyone dumb, so it really wasnt that much of a suprise that he was wrong.

"Kitten?" Kyo repeated "you know?"

She nodded then tried to stand up, but ended colapsing onto the floor, inches away from the couch.

Kyo walked to her and picked the strange girl up again, her long black hair tickled him, he bite back the urge to laugh, he placed her on the couch again, moving the blanket over her, just like he had before.

Kyo wonderd what her secrete was, and what she had done to cause Akito such rage, no one had ever seen him so angry, yet Kyo wasnt suprised, whenever Akito became to angry, he would always leave the room, coming back a little more calm, he had never wondered why.

Tohru arrived home from work, she saw the girl laying on the couch and immediantly ran over to her, mumbling a million questions, none of which Kyo could answer.

Tohru tended to the girls wounds, while she was still asleep, there was no need to wake her, in her weak state, she needed her rest. When she had finish, Tohru sat beside the couch, thinking of what the girls name might be, or why Akito had demanded to see her, Tohru was clueless, Kyo had decided, she hadnt even thought that this girl might be a hidden Sohma, the one that occupied the only room in the main house that was constantly locked.

"Is she a Sohma?" Tohru asked, she had finally begun to catch up to his line of thinking

"dont know" Kyo Shrugged, he heard the door open slightly, they both turned to look at the girl, but she was gone, again.
