Chapter 2-
Disclaimer – I sky do not own fruits basket, never have and sadly never will, if I did don't you think kyo and tohru would have been kissing going to karaoke and walkies in the forest? Ahem anyways onward with the story :D
Kyo and Yuki said their goodnights to Tohru. Tohru watched the two as they headed for their rooms 'Tomorrow I will see Akito again, I wonder if I will suffer the same pain as Kana san?' Her thoughts were inturupted by a worried Shigure "Tohru kun, I know you might not feel like sleeping much but you should try. Don't stress about tomorrow too much, Yuki and myself will be there for you"
"Oh yes sorry Shigure san I am keeping you awake *deep bow* I hope you sleep well, and Shigure san thank you"
Shigure just smilied at her and went off downstairs.
Tohru was about to entre her room when she remembered about the slap.. so she hesitates, Kyo not being able to sleep notices that he dosen't hear Tohru's door close. He decides to check it out, just as he opens his door Yuki opens his.
"Honda san, are you still a little shaken?"
'Fuck that rat I want to protect her and give her peace… I know!'
Tohru is standing there like a stunned mullet but smiles all the same
"Tohru if you feel frightened or uneasy, I know this sounds strange and don't get me wrong but would you like me to sleep on your floor?"
Tohru's face lit up with a huge smile
"Honda san I would like to do the same if you don't mind"
Tohru nodded enthusiastically "Yes Shoma kun and Kyo kun it would allow me to sleep"
So Kyo and Yuki dragged their doonas' into Tohrus room and had a silent fight with death glares about who had which piece of floor.
Finally everyone was settled and Tohru spoke the words both the guys wanted to hear
"Goodnight and sweet dreams"
With that both Yuki and Kyo forgot about their plans to fight eachother and drifted to sleep.
Meanwhile Kagura had made her way to the main house and asked to see Akito.
Akito was angry screaming "Who the hell wants to see me this late at night, tell them to come back tomorrow!" The servant mentioned Kagura's name softly, Akito relaxed her shoulders and slid back to her usual place by the large ikebana. Akito motioned her hand for the servant to bring Kagura forth.
"Akito I thought I would be okay if Tohru and Kyo became a couple but… but.."
"Your not are you?" Akito was sneering at this news 'I will punish you Tohru you will suffer as you deserve to'
"No Akito" Kagura began to cry she stood up "I want that bitch to suffer as I am suffering, please Akito I have always been so loyal and, just this once I ask a deed of you!"
Akito saw her pleading eyes "I was thinking of doing this in any case so I don't mind at all to make it official"
Kagura brushed her tears away "Thank you Akito, may I stay in the guest chambers tonight?"
"Of course my poor Kagura, to think Shigure kicked you out in the middle of the.."
Kagura cut her off "No it's not like that, I slapped Tohru and Kyo got mad at me and so I ran into my room and left through the window I doubt they know I am gone"
"I see, very well Shigure is safe for now, I just hope none of them try to protect her"
Kagura merely nodded feeling the emotional stress catching up to her as she began to relax.
"Go now"
Kagura bowed and headed for the guest chambers. Outside Momiji couldent believe his ears, as the bunny he had sharp ears thank god Akito and Kagura did not have this same ability. Momiji quickly returned to his room in Harito's chambers. He was breathing heavily at the sheer horror that something was going to happen to Tohru…
'I must warn them' Momiji decided he would risk calling Kyo's mobile from Harito's phone.
Kyo felt his mobile vibrate near his head, he grumbled as he flipped it open and croakely began mumbling "Moshi moshi who is it?"
"KYO it's me Momiji"
"What the hell are you rining me now for?"
"You have to take Tohru and run!"
A shiver went down Kyo's spine and he began nudging Yuki to wake up
"Why is that Momiji?"
Yuki woke up enough to mumble a "What is it?"
"Akito and Kagura have just planned to harm Tohru!"
"WHAT!!!"
"That's why you must take her and run now!"
Yuki's eyes were wide awake at the panicked Kyo. Tohru began to stir as well.
"I understand thanks bunny, are you safe?"
"I think so but if not Hari can help me, just protect my princess"
"take care bunny, bye"
Kyo snapped the phone shut, got up and went to the room Kagura was supposed to be in, the window was open, Yuki was now standing behind him.
"Kyo I take it that call was a warning?"
"yeah"
"from who?"
"Momiji"
"That's odd"
"there is no time to explain we must get Tohru out of here, I would like to run with her alone but for her sake.."
"Kyo you know I would hunt you down"
"There is no time to fight now, pack your things and meet me back in Tohru's room in two minutes"
Yuki dashed to pack. Kyo also.
"should we pack for her?"
"No Yuki she would feel angry if we touched certain clothing items" Both of them blushed.
"Tohru… Tohru… Tohru you have to wake up we must get out of here fast"
Tohru woke up sitting up quickly
"What did you say?"
"Honda san, we got a tip off from Momiji that Akito is etching a plan to harm you"
Tohru looked so sad " I see, but I will go alone"
Both of them looked towards her shocked…
"I do not wish to burden you any more than I have already"
Yuki barged past kyo and hugged Tohru inter twining his fingers in her hair
"Tohru a day without you would be the biggest burden for both of us"
Tohru was blushing madly and yuki pulled away leaving an extremely pissed off Kyo to watch him walk out the door with his largest douffle bag.
Kyo turned to face Tohru so that Yuki couldent see and gave her a kiss on the forehead and whispered in her ear "Tohru I would die without you, knowing you is the only thing that has given me hope and trust with people. Please don't take that away from me"
Tohru was blushing even more and looked like a well done lobster.
"y yes…"
She quickly packed her things whilst the two boys ran downstairs and informed Shigure of their plans to keep Tohru safe.
"Here Yuki take this" Shigure held out a small bag. Yuki opened it to find a mobile phone and a wad of $100 dollar notes.
"Thank you Shigure"
"Don't mention it you two just keep her safe, I will try to stall as long as I can. I am the only one besides you two who know about this mobile and so you can keep in contact without being traced."
Kyo and Yuki bowed as they heard Tohru coming down the stairs.
Shigure came out and gave Tohru a big hug, but he didn't transform into the dog… This angered Kyo but relieved Yuki 'The curse has been broken I won't become a rat if I hug my slave again, that is if I get to see her again…"
"Shigure san, I will miss you please write me an email when it is safe to return, I will make fresh ikebana and hot green tea"
Shigure smiled warmly at the thought.
With that the trio left the house, Tohru rang Uo and Hanajima and told them she was going away for a while but would call if something happened.
Kagura was dreaming of millions of ways to torture Tohru whilst Akito was dreaming of how to bring pain to Kyo and Yuki as well.
Momiji couldn't sleep he was crying too much and Hatori woke up to find out what was wrong, Momiji told him in the softest voice he could muster.
Hatori's eyes widened. "Oh Tohru" 'If Akito orders me… shit'
"Hari you won't take Tohru's memories away right? She is so kind and now Kagura has hurt her, I want to protect her!"
"Momiji you know that if Akito orders, then I"
"NO Hari if you do that nearly all of the zodiac wont forgive you!"
"Momiji, mabey it would be better if Tohru lost her memories, otherwise she might suffer more and more, like Kana"
Momiji just sat there in shock more tears streaming down his face. His eyes wide and unable to move. 'Momiji I know how you feel, and if I can avoid it I will remember… I would miss not having Tohru around. I would miss her very much'
Yuki, Kyo and a shaken Tohru borded the first flight of the morning bound for Korea.
"Kyo kun, Shoma kun, I wonder what Korea will be like, I feel terrible for not saying goodbye to everyone…"
"Tohru you don't have to feel guilty about anything! We will protect you and I am sure everyone will agree back home."
"Honda san I hate to admit it but the cat is absolutely correct on this one"
"But how on earth am I going to finish high school… my mother…"
Both of the boys cringed a little at this….
"Honda san, I will be aiming to work as a English teacher and I am sure they can give you a crash course on Korean"
"Tohru I will be looking for work as a martial arts teacher, so if you wish I will pay for you to have private tuition when we return to Japan to finish your high school and please your mother"
"Kyo kun Shoma kun! Thank you so much! My stress has gone somewhat, but if Akito sama finds me…"
"Tohru I would beat the living shit out of her before I let her touch you"
"Honda san we would both protect you"
"a… a… arigatou!" Tohru was beaming with happiness and relief.
Meanwhile back at the main house Akito had finished breakfast with kagura and decided they would fetch Tohru from Shigure's house. They set off in the car with a nervous Hatori. Hatori decided it best not to talk at this point but cursed himself he coulden't give Shigure a heads up.
They pulled up outside Shigure's house and Hatori was firstto get out, Whilst he was opening the door for Akito he put other hand behind his back and flashed the signal for danger that they had created in high school. Shigure noted it mentally and didn't allow it to show on his face.
"Good morning Akito, Kagura I was wondering where you were we were all waiting for you to eat breakfast, but since you wernt here I ate yours too hahahaha it was so yummy" 'I only wish it were true… oh Tohru I hope I can eat your precious cooking again soon'
"I see, Shigure is Tohru here I would like to speak with her to … apologise about yesterday"
"I am sorry that you have come all the way out here but those three set out straight after breakfast to have some fun, *shigure pouts* But they didn't invite me and Yuki refused to tell me where they went"
"Shigure are you sure you don't know where they are?"
Shigure let out a huge deep sigh "I only wish Kagura"
Akito came forth "Shigure when they return or if you hear fropm them… pass on the message that Tohru is to come alone to the main house"
Shigure made a mental note 'RUN TOHRU' "Understood Akito, you look lovely in this sunshine"
Akito blushed nodded her head slightly and motioned for everyone to return to the car. Hatori really wanted to tell Shigure the conversations he had and heard but this was no time to be hastey. 'I'm just relived Tohru, Kyo and Yuki are safe for now…'
Hatori drove away and shigure ran to the phone to order take away.
