RAWR! I am the dragon king!
but anyways, here's the second chapter of my new story
...OOO...
Cora woke up with the sun shining her face, she looked out and heard birds chirping, she sat up, yawned and stretched. Cora smiled as she remembered where she was, she was in her old home in japan; she got up and went to the bathroom, then back out to get ready for the new day, she checked her cell phone for the weather and saw it was going to be in the 60's, she put a pair of black skinny jeans, a red shirt with a silver heart on it, she brushed her hair, left it down then put a black and red bow in her hair, she put on some red eye-shadow and left her room to see Akito, she knocked on the door, "Come in, Cora." Akito's voice was soft and wamr, she opened the door to see another figure looking at her, "Well, long time no see, Cora." Shigure smiled at her, Cora smiled and sat infront of him then took his hands in hers, "It has been awhile, hasn't it." she smiled to him then let go of his hands to sit next to Akito, "What time is it?" she then asked, "Around 10." Akito answered, Cora nodded. "Shigure suggested you go see Yuki and Kyo today, would you like to go, Co-chan?" Akito asked her as he held her hand, "I haven't seen them in awhile, so it would be nice." Cora replied, "Then it's settled; i expect her here before midnight." Akito told Shigure who nodded, then sat up, "Well, Cora, ready to see them?" he held out his hand, Cora took it and they walked out of the room. "I need to get my shoes and coat first." Cora said to him as she went to her room and got knee high black heeled boots that zipped up and her red and silver coat that was light yet warm. She put her boots on when she was at the door, "My, my, you have grown, when i last saw you, youo were wearing sneakers." Shigure chuckled, "Oh ha ha, your so funny. Are you still terrorizing your editor?" Cora then asked smirking, "Oh it's just harmless fun." Shigure smiled, "If you say so." Cora smiled abit and they left. "So how has everything with you been?" Shigure asked, "Well, my mother still doesn't listen to me, i hate my step-father, i'm studying to be a drawer, other than that, i'm plain." Cora answered, "Your mother is going to regret what she's done some day, you know that right?" Shigure said, "I do, and when she does, i'll be long gone. I'm thinking about moving back here, the main house is the only place i can call home without it being raped by drunks and smokers." Cora said as they stopped at a light, "ou were never one for parties." Shigure chuckled, "Except when it was my own." Cora smirked.
"I need to pick up something from this story, would you mind waiting for a moment, Co-chan?" Shigure looked at her, she nodded and he went in the book store.
...
Shigure walked into the book store and asked the cashier to borrow the phone, when he got the phone he called Ayame, "I take it you got her measurments?" Ayame answered, "Yup, She's 5'5, medium waist, size C bust, her attitude and love for colors hasn't changed." Shigure told him, "Still one for the dark yet flashy colors, she trully is a her mother was never one for color." Ayame said, Shigure nodded and said, "True, but then again she really has matured since then, and i bet she would love-" Shigure was about to continued when Cora's voice stopped him, "Shigure," Shigure almost dropped the phone, "Y-yes, Co-chan?" he asked, slightly embaressed, "thers a buy one get one half off at th emusic store across the street, can we go after we're done here?" Cora tilted her head, "Of course we can, why don't you pick get afew books here, i'm sure theres something you like to read." Shigure gestured to the book store, Cora nodded then walked off, her heels softly clicking on the carpet, "As i was saying, i bet a black dress with shiny green trimming and ruffles will be her interest." Shigure suggested, "That sounds perfect! Co-chan always loved shiny things, well, better get to work, ta-ta!" Ayame hung up, and Shigure gave the phone back to the cashier then went to look for Cora, he found her in the drawing section, he also saw a basket full of books, he picked one up and suddenly had wide eyes, for one he didn't expect her to like boys love books, and second, he never would expect her to want to draw them! "I know it's weird for your own cousin to read books like those, but they're cute and interesting, my mom hates that i read them, but i cant help it." Cora said as she looked up at Shigure, she giggled at his expression, she took the book away from him and put it back int he backet, "Don't worry, the rest are manga that are not boys love related." Cora picke up her backest and showed him, he sighed in relief and then both went to pay for the books.
"You read alot, aren't teenagers not suppose to care about reading?" Shigure asked as they crossed the street to the music store, "I'm not like other teenagers, i want to get a good job, i want to get into a good collage, i want to get married and have kids, but i need the proper education to able to support my family." Cora said as they entered the store, she went stright to the pop/rock sections. After half an hour, they left the store with 3 CD's, Cora got the Ouran High Scool Host Club cd and the Mermaid Melody cd, while Shigure got a jazz cd. They walked around for abit until Cora saw a crepe stand, she grabbed Shigure's hand and ran to it, "Can we get some?" she asked, "Of course. Two chocolate crepes please." Shigure said to the crepe maker who nodded and got the crepes started, "I haven't had one since i left here." Cora said as she watched the crepe being made, "Your mother was never a very nice woman." Shigure said, Cora shrugged then smiled as the crepes her done, "Yum." she said as she grabbed both of them, Shigure gave the money to the maker then got his crepe from Cora. "How long are you staying here for?" Shigure asked, "About 2 weeks, maybe 3, or i'll stay here, i haven't decided yet." Cora answered as she ate her crepe with a smile. "That bad huh?" Shigure looked at her, "You have no idea." and with that, they both ate and walked in a peaceful silence. Shigure took hold of her left hand and held it with his right, while he ate his crepe with his left hand, Cora looked at him then smiled gently, she entwined their fingers, if it was one thing Shigure could do, it was help her forget her troubles. They walked to his house in the forest, "I take it your the occasional weirdo that walks around here at night, Shigure?" Cora chuckled at her thought as she imagined Shigure in a spy outfit, and everything, then girls walking by him and just staring, she giggled at that, "Well, your laugh hasn't changed much." Shigure patted her head, they stopped at the front door, "Wait here while i go check if anyone is there." Shigure said, Cora tilted her head abit in question, "I want to suprise Yuki and Kyo." Shigure said, Cora nodded, he then left her to wait.
...OOO...
Shigure was in a hurry and took off his coat and shoes then wandered into the house, he went into the dining area, everyone fussing over where to put everything, "She's outside! And im scared to find out what would happen if i leave her out there for to long!" Shigure said to them, "Um, well i got all the food ready with some help from Momiji and Hatsuharu,while Yuki, Kyo, Kagura, Hiro, and Kisa got the decorations ready, and um Ayame and Hatori just got back with a cake." Tohru said, Shigure nodded he looked around and saw everything was out of place, but that wouldn't bother Cora, he also saw the 20 presents, some on the small table and some on the floor. "You all went all out to welcome her home." Shigure was shocked, but impressed, "Well she is important to us like Akito is." Ayame chmmed as he was sipping his tea, "I'll get her then, she must be waiting to see what's taking me so long." Shigure said and walked out, and to the front door, he opened it to reveal Cora reading one of her BL books, "I forgot i told them you were in town last night, so they already know." Shigure said while scratching the back of his head, "That's alright, at least they know im here." Cora forgave him, they were in silence for afew minutes, "Aren't you going to let me in?" Cora asked, "Oh, right, this way." Shigure moved out of the way to let her in, "It feels homey." Cora smiled some, Shigure smiled back and watched as she took off her jacket and boots. "They're in the dining room." Shigure walked infront of her, and stopped at rice paper sliding doors, he opened them and soon Cora was surrounded by confetti and streamers. "Welcome home Co-chan!" Ayame, Momiji, and Kagura yelled, "You all went all out, i can tell because everything is out of place." Cora chuckled at them, she saw so many familiar faces, but one, a girl with brown hair and blue eyes, she wondered if this was Tohru Honda, Akito was talking about. "Well, when Shigure told us our beloved Co-chan was here, he said we should organize a party, and so, here we are." Ayame said, "So, who wants to get hugged first?" Cora opened her amrs and smiled, Momiji was the first to jump in her arms and turn into a rabbit, "Aw, i missed you so much mo-chan." Cora nuzzled him, he nuzzled back, she put him down and said "Now go put your clothes on, the last thing we need are naked boys and men walking around here." she laughed at everyones expressions, "Her sense of humor hasn't changed at least." Kyo mumbled.
Hatsuharu was the next one to hug her and turn into an ox, "I missed you too haru." Cora hugged him longer before getting his clothes and putting them on his back. Ayame was next, "Snakes scare the jelly out of me, but with you aya, im not scared." Cora let him go around her neck and rest there then she took him off and put him in the next room with his clothes, Momiji and Haru were already human again and dressed sitting at the table. Hatori just patted her head, Hiro hugged her tight, she hugged him back even though he turned into a lamb/ram. "I haven't seen you or Kisa in a while." Cora mutteres as she kissed his head, and put him down to get his clothes, "Sissy." Kisa said as she walked up to Cora, said girl went on her knees and held her arms open, "Oh Kisa, my Kisa and Hiro." Cora smiled as the little girl hugged her and she hugged back. Kagura hugged Cora next, but not before both were holdings hands, jumping up and down in a circle squeling, then hugging each other. "Why are girls so damn loud?" Kyo shouted, both girls didn't pay attention and were hugging each other still. "We have to go shopping together before you leave." Kagura said, "Ok, i know that would be fun." Cora agreed, she then saw Yuki and Kyo she smiled and walked up to them, "Long time no see, huh Yuki." Cora smiled abit at him, he smiled back, "It has been awhile, Cora." Yuki then hugged her, he turned into a little gray rat, "Your still cute like i remember, aw!" Cora held him in her hands and kissed his head then kinda brushed noses with him, she grabbed his clothes and took them to the other room, she walked back and then tackled Kyo. "Ah! I'm getting mauled by an emo person!" Kyo yelled as he was trapped in Cora's arms as a cat, "Oh Kyo, stop it, you know you love when i pet you." Corasaid as she sat him on her lap and rubbed his tummy, he purred loudly, everyone in the room held in their laughter, Kagura knew Cora loved to mess with Kyo, so she didn't think anything of it. "Well now that everyone has welcomed her home, its time for introductions." Shigure said with a smile he went to ohru held out his hand, Tohru put her hand in his and he led her to where Cora stood.
"Cora, this is Tohru." Shigure gestured to her, Tohru bowed, then looked at her with a smile, "Hello, i'm Tohru Honda." Cora was amazed, this girl looked like a ditz, but looks can be decieving. "I'm Cora Sohma, pleased to meet you, Akito has told me about you." Cora bowe abit, everyone looked at her, "I wonder what he said." Yuki mumbled to himself, "You say something Yuki?" Shigure looked at his younger cousin, who shook his head. "Time for presents! Time for presents!" Momiji said excitedly, "Presents?" Cora was really happy now, she sat in an empty spot inbetween Hatori and Ayame, "Oh before we get started, i have a present for our lovely princess." Ayame said and he got up to go the other room, he came back with something behind his back, "You will need to close your eyes for this." he said in a gentle voice, Cora nodded and closed her eyes, Ayame took the item from behind his back, he walked up behind Cora, then took the item out of the box and placed it on her head, "Is it a crown, cuz if its a crown i would love you even more!" Cora said, she heard afew of them chuckle, "You guess right, princess Cora." Ayame said then kissed her cheek, Cora smiled then opened her eyes, she gasped at the presents in front of her. "This is from Kureno, i guess someone told him you were here also." Shigure said as he hadned Cora a box, she opened it slowly and inside were paint supplies, she smiled, she opened the rest of the presents, most were books, clothes and art supplies, she saved Ayame's last, because she loved his gifts. Cora smiled widely as she took out the black dress with greeen lace and ribbon trimming, and green under layers, she kissed Ayame on the cheek and sat back down. "Tohruy, how come your friend's couldn't come?" Shigure asked as everyone ate and had fun, "Uh, um, Hana-chan was going to take care of somethings today, and Uo-chan had to work." Tohru answered, Shigure nodded, everyone was having fun, because Cora jumped on Kyo, causing him to transform, she laughed and rubbing his tummy, with him purring loudly, "Oh Kyo, you know you love me when i rub your tummy." everyone laughed at Kyo, he got mad and was attepmting and filing to bite her.
Cora also got to talk to Tohru when she helped bring the food out. "Thank you for taking care of them, when i couldn't." Cora bowed to her, Tohru smiled and bowed, "Not a problem." then walked out of the kitchen to serve the food. Around 10 it was time for Cora to go, because she was getting tired; "Well *yawn* i had loads of fun here, and it was a pleasure meeting you Tohru, i'm glad i met you." Cora said as she smiled, Tohru smiled in return, "I'll be taking her home." Hatori said, everyone said their good byes and night and left. Hatori, Ayame and Cora got in Hatori's car and drove off to the estate. "It truly is a delight to know that your here, Co-chan." Ayame said to the teenager, "It feels nice," Cora began, Hatori looked at her through his rear view mirror, while Ayame looked at her to the side, "fells nice, to be home, once more." Cora smiled to herself, both males smiled at her statement and then dropped her off, "Good night Ha-chan, Aya-chan." Cora kissed both of them on their cheeks as she went into the main house to her room, she dressed into a Pokemon shirt and black sweats, she took off her make up and brushed her hair out, there was a knock on her door, "Come in." Cora told whoever it was that knocked, she continued to brush her hair, then she felt two arms wrap themselves around her waist in a protective hold, "See, i'm back before 12, you didn't need to worry, Aki-kun." Cora kissed his head and put her brush down. "Did you have fun?" Akito aked as they lied down on the futon, Cora nodded and answered, "I saw some of them, and i saw Tohru Honda." Cora told him, "What did you think of her?" Akito asked as both of them saw on the porch and looked up at the night sky, with a cresent moon and stars, "To tell you the truth, she is a hideous sight to see, always smiling like nothing is wrong. I don't know what they see in her." Cora admitted, she disliked Tohru, but put up a facade of tricking everyone that she liked Tohru, it worked well, not even Yuki noticed.
"She is an eye sore, isn't she." Akito said as he layed his head on Cora's lap while she stroked his hair. "It's not fair." Cora said as she gently took Akito's head off her lap and put it on the floor, she walked back into the room, and suddenly there were crashing and shattering sounds, "They belong to me!" Cora yelled at started smashing things, her eyes became watery, but she refused to cry. Akito watched his beloved destroy things in her way, making Cora angry was another reason Akito added to his list of why he hates Tohru. Cora stopped after 30 minutes of destroying things, she sank to her knee's, she then noticed a picture of her and Akito when they were kids, "You still have this picture? I thought you would have gotten rid of it." Cora took in her hands and looked at the picture of her and Akito at new years, many years ago. "I could never get rid of the picture, if i got rid of the things that reminded me of you, i would be displeased." Akito hugged her from behind and fell back, Cora twisted around and was now looking at Akito, "I'll never leave you, until you want me too, Akito-sama." Cora muttered in his chest, "I will never want you to leave, Cora-san, we will be together always." Akito whispered to her and hugged her. Both layed in the mess she made, but only one spot remained without shattered glass or wood. The maids and servants heard the crashes and yelling, but didn't disturb them. Cora had silent tears running down her face, as she whispered, "Kyo,Hatsuharu, Kisa, Hiro, Momiji, all of them belong to me, and you, Tohru has no right to disturb the happiness you created, Aki-kun." Cora hid her face in the nape of his neck, "What method of elimination would you use on miss Tohru?" Akito asked as he stroked her hair, "Why would you ask me such a question?" Cora replied, "Just wondering." Akito answered, "Well, i would most likely deprive her of seeing any of the Sohma's, especially Yuki, Kyo, Hatsuharu, Momiji, Shigure, Hatori and everyone other cursed person." Cora answered, "Such a cruel person Cora, but the idea does seem fitting." Akito agreed, "Your too cruel." Cora snuggled into him, she then got the pillow, put it under Akito's head and then draped the cover over them.
"Shall we spend tomorrow together, Akito?" Cora asked, Akito's arms wrapped around her waist, "That would be nice." he answered, "Lets have lunch in the garden tomorrow also." Cora suggested, "As long as you feed me." Akito whispered in her ear, "Only for you, Aki-kun." Cora replied and kissed him on his lips, Akito was abit surprised, but kissed back either way, if he was Cora's lover, he would be happy, until she leaves.
