(the next day)
Tohru rolled over and faced away from the bright sun shine coming into her room. She wasn't ready to get up yet but as she was trying to drift back to sleep there was a sharp knock on her door. "Yes?" Tohru said still half asleep.
"Tohru it's Kyo, can I come in?" Tohru got out of the bed and walked over to the door, still in her Pjs and opened it.
"What's wrong?" Tohru asked when she saw his face.
"Well, Akito found out that you broke the curse and he wants to see you and only you right now." Kyo said his voice quivering.
Tohru knew that this was coming and she was ready to face Akito. She put her hand up to Kyo's face and gently stroked it and said, "Kyo, I'll be fine. Remember I've dealt with Akito before and came back fine." She walked away from him back into her room to get dressed.
Kyo turned around so that he wasn't looking at her and said, "Yuki and I will walk you to the main house if you want."
"No Kyo I gotta do this myself but thank you." she replied as she finished getting dressed. She went over to Kyo and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I will be back in no more than an hour, sweetie." And with that she left her room and the house and was on her way to the main house.

(Main House)
"Miss Tohru Honda has arrived Master Akito." said one of Akito's many maids.
"Send her in." Akito growled.
Tohru walked in Akito's room and knelt in front of him, "You wished to see me?" On the outside Tohru was calm but her insides were shaking as Akito walked toward her.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Akito screamed as he smacked her across the cheek, Tohru didn't even flinch. "YOU TOOK MY PETS AWAY FROM YOU GOD DAMN BITCH!" He raised his hand again to smack her. "WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY?"
Tohru looked him in the eyes; which is something no one has ever done, and replied, "That I'm damn proud of what I did! You are powerless now Akito, you can't control any of them anymore!" Tohru finished what she needed to say and Akito was furious. He balled his hand up into a fist and punched her in her temple.
"I will find a way to get them back Tohru Honda! Mark my words!" he said as he left the room, leaving Tohru to get up on her own after suffering a blow to the head. Once she was sure that Akito was long gone Tohru got up and stumbled out of the main house, and onto the grounds, and headed back to her home.

(Back at the house)
It was getting late and Tohru should have been home by now. Kyo and Yuki were getting nervous and were pacing the hall way. "KYO!!!!" they heard Momiji yell from outside the house.
Kyo went running out as fast as he could, "What happened?"
Momiji was out of breath, "Tohru…"
"What about her!?"
"She's hurt bad… I found her about a block away but I couldn't carry her… Hurry!" Momiji said as he started to run in the direction of the injured Tohru, Kyo following right behind him. "There she is right ahead." Momiji pointed.
Kyo ran to her and knelt down next to her taking her face into his hand, "Tohru? Sweetie wake up." Tohru moaned but did not open her eyes. "Momiji run back to the house and tell Yuki and Shigure and tell them what happened… I'm taking her to the hospital." Kyo stood up, while resting Tohru over both arms, and took off toward the hospital.
*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~**
(The hospital)
Kyo got Tohru to the hospital in 5 minutes, and after the nurse at the desk saw that she was unconscious, Tohru was rushed back to an examination room. Kyo because he wasn't family was not allowed back while the Dr. looked her over. While he waited for the Dr. to come back out and let him go in, Shigure, Yuki, Hana, and Arisa came running over. "What happened?" Shigure asked at the same time as Hana and Arisa.
"Momiji came running to the house and said that he found Tohru about a block away… She was unconscious when I got there. So I rushed her here." Kyo said having some problems keeping his emotions hidden.
"Are you the one that brought this young girl in?" asked the Dr. as he walked toward Kyo.
"How is Tohru?" Kyo said.
"Are you her family?" the Dr. asked.
"Sir, we are the only family she has. Her mother is dead, father gone, and her grandfather isn't part of her life anymore." Hana replied.
The Dr. looked at all of them and saw the concern on their faces for this poor girl, "She is going to be fine. She has a cracked jawbone and a mild concussion. We will be keeping her over night for observations, one of you may stay with her because when she wakes up she will be disoriented." He turned to Kyo and said, "It's a good thing you found her son… any longer and she would be in a coma." Then he walked away.
