Chapter 3: Thorus Examination

Kyo carried Tohru into the house and put her down in her bed.

"Kyo, she was like this when you found her?" Hatori said.

"Yes, you don't think?" the cat began.

"No I need you to tell me how she was when you found her?"

"Okay I didn't see her at first because she was sitting so close to the dumpster, when I went to her she started screaming till she realized who I was. When I tried to pick her up she started screaming again saying she was hurt."

Hatori looked and Shigure, "I'm going to have to examine her, to see how damaged she is."

Shigure turned paled but nodded his head. "We'll also have to get her cleaned up, the only thing is well I'm not sure how she is going to react to being around men."

"Why would she act any different around us?" Kyo asked.

For the time being there was no answer. Yuki was standing at the door. I can't believe I was late, I had to stay and work late. I should have been there for her. This would have never happened. Why would someone beat Honda-san up, she never carries much money with her. Looking at the pitiful form on the bed.

"Yuki, Kyo do you know the numbers to her friends, we may need there help cleaning her up. I want to keep her meditated tonight for the examination." Hatori said. "Well go call them and tell them to hurry. She may need to be in the hospital, I'll have to ask Akito to see if he will allow her to use the family hostile at the main house."

Shigure nodded. "So you don't think Akito did this? You can erase memories maybe we should just her up and let you erase them. I mean this is going to be hard enough for her to deal with."

"No" Hatori said quickly, "That choice should be hers, we shouldn't take that choice away from her. Don't you think enough of her choice was taken?" Though in the end even if she wants the memories gone, Akito will have to allow it

"Sorry" the dog said, looking scolded.

Yuki was standing outside the door when he over heard the conversation about erasing her memory. Why would they want to erase her memory, she is going to be scared to be around us. He thought as it dawned on him what happened to her. Oh god, this is my fault.

Kyo came around the corner for a second he was going to say something to yuki, but even the look on yuki face stopped the age-old battle. "What?" he asked.

"Do you have any idea what happened to Honda-san?" yuki asked quietly.

"Someone beat her up, probably Akito." Kyo said

"Think about it, you stupid cat, why would she have no panties on, and blood on her legs, and why would they want to erase her memories, why would she be scared to be alone with us….she's lived her for months now.."

"Don't call me stupid, damn rat" Kyo mumbled as he slid down the wall, the fact slowly sinking n on him, that Tohru had been violated and hurt much worse than he realized. "They are on their way" He said as he went out the front door. He headed to roof to think, but all he could do was cry. I can't believe I didn't go pick her up sooner, its all my fault.

Yuki slid the door open,. "Hanajima and Uotana are on their way"

"Okay, Yuki-san I'm going to ask you wait outside while I do this. She may scream some but I'm going to try to keep her sedated enough so she isn't hurt anymore than what she already has been. "

"Is she going to be okay?" Yuki asked

"We'll see, I'm going to do everything I can for her. But if you mean is she going to die tonight, no she'll live."

"though she may wish she had die" Shigure mumbled receiving scalding looks from Hatori and Yuki.

"I don't understand, I mean I think I know what happened, but I don't understand."

" I don't either" Hatori said, wondering if erasing her memories of this night might not be the best thing for her. "Okay I need to get started. Shigure go get some warm water I'll just start with her face. I'll have the other girls help her in the shower after I'm done."

Yuki stepped out of the room and went to his to think, the house is awful quite. If something more happens to her, I'll never forgive myself.

"Tohru, can you hear me, its Hatori and Shigure, I'm going to take a look at you and see how badly you are hurt. I'll tell you what I'm doing as I do it. I'm just going to wash your face off first." Her eyes fluttered opened and she moaned.

"Can you tell us what happened?" Shigure asked ringing out a wash cloth .

Instead of answering she just started to cry. "Please don't hurt me. She mumbled and shook as Hatori stared washing her face off. " Why?" She mumbled and forced her self to stay still when she started cleaning her bruised face. I'll just go back to sleep, this nightmare has to be almost over. The wounds on her face consisted of a black eye, a bruise to her left temple and her lip was busted, her teeth looked okay.

"Okay shigure I'm going to nee to check her upper body" Hatori said noticing the bruises on her arms. "Get her robe to cover her. I'm going to have to take your shirt off Tohru. Or do you want to try." She didn't respond. "Help me sit her up"

They sat her up as Hatori start to pull the shirt up over her. She began to scream. "No NO not again, haven't you hurt me enough."

"Tohru, we are trying to help you calm down, baby we won't hurt you" Shigure said.

Her eyes were open and she was staring at him, but not seeing him. All she could see was the face of her attacker the brown eyes and light colored hair. "NO NO" Was all she kept screaming and the tears never stopped running down her face. Shigure looked helplessly at Hatori.

"I'll have to sedate her again" Moving to his bag and getting another syringe. "Hold her arm out." Shigure held her arm out and looked away as he gave her some more medicine. "Okay that should….."

"Where's Tohru?" Uo-chan said as she enter the room. "What the hell happened to her"

"Shigure take them out side and explain it to them, With her under I'll be able to finish this myself.. Call Aktio when your done, I would like to use the main house at least a day or two I'm not sure how she'll react when she is completely awake and the reality hits her."

"Where's Kyo and Yuki? Shigure asked as he guided the two girls outside.

"Kyo sis on the roof, Yuki I haven't seen. Now what happened to our Tohru, you guys were suppose to protect her." Hana-san began.

" Tohru went to work, Yuki usually walks her home, he called to say he would have to be late tonight to finish his work up at the school, Kyo went to pick her up around 9..."

"But she gets off around 8:30" uo-chan interrupted.

The writer just held up his hand. He swallowed heard and continued. "Yuki got in about 10, I didn't think anything about it. I thought Kyo and her may have stopped at the store or something on the way home. Kyo found her by the dumpster in the back of the building. She was hiding and beat up. He couldn't carry her, she was saying it hurt. I got a feeling something was wrong. When we got there, she was crying and covered in blood, her underwear was….." He stopped and noticed the girls , they just nodded, he didn't need to finish they knew what had happened.

"Shouldn't she be in the hospital?" They asked.

"Hatori is a doctor, he will take care of her, he wants your alls help washing her off, she probably isn't going to want any men around her. I need to call the head of the family, girls if you will excuse me.. Our family has a small hospital on the main estate. We are going to see if she can stay there for a day or two."

They nodded. About that time Hatori came out the room looking sick. He had finished the examination and even under sedation Tohru had cried and begged him to stop. He had never seen anything as bad, not even when Akito took his eye.. She had several bruises on her arms one on her breast, as well as a bite mark on her left one. She thighs were terrible bruised, legs cut up and scraped probably where she had fallen and scooted around on the pavement. Her insides where also torn and bruised. The bleeding came from inside where she had lost her virginity with an extreme about of force. "She is still a bit out of it, but a shower will help her at least feel a little cleaner. Do you all mind helping her. I don't want to put her through any more."

They nodded and went into the room to see about their friend.
