One year prior to this event Sohma estate

"If that girl interferes with my plans, I will kill her Shigure-san"

"…! You can't just kill her!"

"If I do not kill her than Hatori-san will erase her memory, every last thing pertaining to the Sohma family." Akito said.

"…!"

"don't worry, I'll have someone come and tell you when he is coming…"

One week before the beach day Sohma estate

"Hatori-san, I need you…to erase Tohru Honda's memory."

"…! I don't know if I can…"

"Do you dare to go against what I say? Either you erase the Sohma's from her memory or…I will kill her."

"I will…do it"

Half an hour later Sohma household

"Momiji? What did Akito say?" Shigure asked, making sure that Kyo and Yuki were nowhere to be found.

"Akito-san only wanted me to tell you that Hatori-san was going to visit in a day or two. I don't know why he wanted me to tell you, but he did."

"…!" Shigure's eyes grew wide. "Thank you Momiji."

"No problem Shigure-san. Momiji has to get back to the Sohma estate now." Momiji said leaving the room.

"So it's true…you are coming to-"Shigure sighed, hanging up the phone.

"Who's coming? Are we having visitors? Are they Sohmas? What should I cook?"

A tear fell from Shigure's eye. "Tohru-kun…I need to talk to you" He said sitting down at the Kitchen table. "I want you to move back in with your grandfather…"

"…! What did I do! I sorry for whatever it is! Please don't-"

"Hatori-san is coming, tomorrow…to…erase your memory…so you'll have to move back to your grandfather's house, and never…meet another Sohma again…"

"…!" Tohru's eyes became filled with tears as they started streaming down her face. "I don't- understand…"

"Neither do I"

"Nor I" said Yuki and Kyo walking into the room. "What did Tohru-kun do?"

"Don't know…but Akito decided that now is the time…for her to forget."

Even more tears came down from Tohru's cheeks. I'd better…finish up everything I can…so I can leave you…in good hands…" She sniffled running up stairs.

"Who the hell does Akito think he is! Does he really think that we're just going to let him take away her memory!" Kyo spat out.

"I won't allow him to do that!" Yuki declared, infuriated.

"I-I don't think we have much of a choice…it's either she loses her memory or her life…"

"What!"

"That was what Akito agreed upon…you chose the ending, how do you want her time with us to end?"

I don't want to go back…not just back to grandpas, but to life…My life was so different…before the Sohmas…and I don't want to go…to an empty shell…

Chapter eight- Good bye Tohru-kun

"Toh…ru…I-are you ok?" Yuki said slowly walking into his room. He felt like his life was being throw out of the window (or more literally kicked out of the house), but if he felt that bad, than how did Tohru feel?

"Yuki-kun!" Tohru said wiping the stream of tears from her face. "I'm-I-"Tohru sighed falling to her knees and covering her face with her hands. "I'm going to miss you all so much!"

"…! You asked me a question along time ago…" Yuki said sitting down on the floor next to her. "When I first mentioned your memory being erased…" 'Will you still be my friend?' "And the answer is yes, even if your memory is erased, I'll still- I'll always be your friend…I promise you…I'll always be your friend"

Later that day- Sohma household-dinner time

"Have you seen Kyo or Yuki today?" Shigure asked Tohru as she put the sizzling foods on the table. "Dinner looks delicious!"

"Thanks…no, I haven't seen them…I was hoping that they'd come to dinner since-"Tohru stopped for a second, to stop from breaking down crying. "This is the last time I'll eat dinner with you, with any of you…I made their favorites and I just wanted you to remember-me…even if I couldn't remember you."

"Damn rat, what the hell are you doing here!" Kyo yelled as saw Yuki on the roof. "This is where I spend my time!"

"Pity, I don't much care right now…I'm-worried about Tohru… will she be ok…without us?"

"! I don't know. She's not the most cautious person in the world, but…but no matter what the hell Akito tells me, I won't let anything happen to Tohru, weather she knows I'm looking out for her or not!"

"…! Tohru?" Yuki looked down from the roof as he watched Tohru walking outside.

"Yuki-kun! I-didn't know if you wanted to eat dinner or not but-"

"I'll be right down…" He called getting off the roof, before he got off he whispered to Kyo, "You can't avoid talking to her ya know. You can at least be kind enough to say good bye"

But if I say goodbye…than she's really gone…

The next day early in the morning- Sohma household

"All your things are at your grandfather's house?" Shigure asked, obviously upset about losing such a great housekeeper (and so much more).Tohru nodded trying not to very emotional. (but being very unsuccessful)

Tohru walked back up to the room where she had previously slept in, she laid down on the bed, and simply cried.

"Tohru…please don't-cry" Kyo said standing in the doorframe.

"K-Kyo-kun…" Tohru said sitting up and wiping her face with her sleeve. "I'm sorry I-"

"STOP APOLIGIZING! You never do anything wrong, yet your so humble, I don't deserve to be apologized to…so don't. And if anyone ever gives you any crap, I swear, I'll find out…and then he'll have a pissed off cat to deal with…"

Tohru laughed and smiled. "Thank you Kyo-kun…"

"And…I'll always be there… to protect you…no matter what… I promise you…I'll never let anything happen to you…again…"

"T-Tohru-kun! Hatori is here!" Shigure called from the kitchen.

Five minutes later Sohma household- the kitchen

"I'm sorry about this Tohru, I honestly don't want to do this but…I have to." Hatori said putting his hand on her head.

Five minutes after five minutes later

"Is Tohru back home now?" Hatori asked as Shigure walked back inside, to a household as cold as ice.

"Yeah, and I'm pretty sure she won't remember anything…about any of us…"

"And it's supposed to stay that way; Akito doesn't want any Sohmas going near her." Hatori said before he left. "Even at school."

Five min-oh maybe not- The next school year Kaibara high school

"Did you hear that that kid Yuki won president? He's so cute!"

"It's not like he'd ever even talk to us. He doesn't even know who we are…"

"Don't say that Tohru-chan, there's still hope…he's coming this way!"

"Hello." Yuki said smiling at Tohru and a girl sitting next to her. I'll be damned if Akito keeps me from a promise I made…

"…! Hello Yuki-kun! How do you know-"

"Damn rat! What the hell do you think you're doing!" Kyo yelled walking to Yuki and pulling him away by his shirt. "Get off of me!" Yuki yelled shoving Kyo off of him.

"…! Please don't fight!" Tohru said waving her hands.

"…!"

"…!" Kyo stared at Tohru for minute before heading back down the hallway, Yuki followed. She's exactly the same person, yet there seems to be something missing, something doesn't seem right about her…It's all because of what we did…we made her sad…

"Can you believe it? Prince Yuki talked to us! He said 'hello'!" The girl squealed.

"Yeah, but for some reason, it doesn't seem like such a big deal to me, even though it should…"

"I can't believe you! You went to talk to Tohru after Hatori told you not to!"

"Why were you there?"

"Umm…because I…oh shut up! You're the one who talked to her."

"Like you weren't going to you! You care even less about Akito's rules than I do!" Yuki yelled when they were a safe distance away from Tohru.

"So! You just don't go walking up to her! What if she remembers?"

"So what! Is that a bad thing, Kyo!"

slam "Tohru! Are you ok!"

Tohru put her hand on her head as a girl helped her up.

"I'm fine really…"

"Roki! What did you do that for?"

"She was in my way…" Roki (the guy who sprained Tohru's wrist) said before smirking and walking out of school.

(Yeah that was the end of the school day, Hana-chan and Arisa had other places they had to be)

"Didn't I already tell you to play nice?" Kyo asked as Roki came out onto the schoolyard.

"…!" Roki's eye grew larger as Kyo decked him in the cheek, followed by a kick to the stomach. "I've lost my patience for people like you…" actually, I've lost the person who convinces me not to hit people like you…
