This chapter started out strange, nobody reviewed and then everybody reviewed so I had to make a few adjustments… I'M SO HAPPY that everyone reviewed!
Haha… I never watched The Ring or the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I just guessed and asked my friends what happened

XxDarkFairy46xx- Thank you for the reviewing!
SPOILER: Kind of, it's about Yuki's, Kyo's, Tohru's, and Kira's teacher, Mayuko. BEWARE!
Hmm… Kira isn't much of a purse or handbag person, she prefer shoes… so do I…
Jake's father name is finally disclosed… lol, I bet everyone forgot about him but Kira does mention him and so does Jake (well it is his father!)
Warning: I don't know if I should have said something before but there are a lot of curses in my fanfic, mostly from Akito, Akito getting Kira angry and Kyo.
Another chappie… since school's closed today…
This has been awkward, lol!
Sohma Estate:
"Over the woods, through the river… something, something I don't know, to damn asshole's house we go…" Kira thought sarcastically as she sat on a branch, waiting for Kureno to stop talking to Akito and leave. Akito was sitting at his pond where the birds surrounded him and Kureno. Finally, Akito said something and Kureno left.
"Finally…" Kira thought.
"You can come down now." Akito looked straight at her, causing her to fall out of the tree.
"Whoa! Damnit!" she cursed as she picked herself up from the ground.
"That was slightly amusing…" Akito smiled his false smile.
"Shut up and continue your completely bizarre story…" she gritted her teeth and glared at him and was rubbing at a dirt stain that had gotten on her creamy white cashmere sweater and on the knee of her jeans. She adjusted her matching cashmere beret so it was placed on her head perfectly like a halo.
"Youth these days have no respect for their betters…" Akito said airily as he petted a dove.
"You are NOT better!"
"I'm more powerful then everyone! I have power over everyone in this stupid family! Including YOU! That makes me BETTER!" Akito snapped.
"Whatever…" Kira muttered and stood up, about to leave.
"Hey! You want to hear the story, don't you? It has plenty to do with this family and their faith." Akito dangled the bait that he knew Kira would fall for. Kira sat down, defeated and sighed.
"Now that's a good little witch. Your mother broke off the engagement and eloped with that man. As they were on their… honeymoon… I came to the Sohma estate to visit his side of the family. His family was very interesting, very dictating… but he used his powers for…happiness of the family." Akito spoke with utter revulsion.
"Dictating? I thought YOU did that!" Kira yelled.
"Oh no! I was very impressed with this family! The 'head' of the family turned out to be that man's relative. He was to pass his power on to a son, yet to be revealed, and his name was Akito Sohma." Akito grinned at Kira who looked at him with disgust.
"You reincarnated into the head and abuse the power? YOU KILLED HIM?" she asked him.
"No, no, he was coming close to death already. At this time, his wife, had a son, which was named after his father, Akito Sohma. When he came to the age of three, which is about the year you were born, I reincarnated into him and poisoned that useless father." Akito said casually, enjoying the affect his words had on Kira.
"YOU KILLED AN INNOCENT THREE YEAR OLD? AND HIS FATHER?" Kira screamed at him. He slapped her to quiet her.
"Silence! We do NOT want Kureno or Hatori to hear you, now do we?" he scolded her and she said nothing, just glared at him and muttered,
"Murderer…"
"Now, unlike that father, I used the power for my needs and wants. That silly man and your mother protested at the way I was handling things and my temper rose a bit too… high."
"So you KILLED them?" Kira said, trying to keep her voice down.
"Your mother figured out in those moments that I wasn't a three year old Akito Sohma but a man she once knew; she was about to grab that man's gun but I pulled it away from her and shot them both." Akito continued, ignoring her.
"How can you say this so calmly? Don't you have any GUILT? REGRET?" Kira asked him.
"Hmm… I don't EVER regret my dear witch, it's a weakness to show emotions and feelings." Akito lectured her and continued,
"LIAR! YOU FUCKING LIAR! All of THIS is just a SICK joke!" Kira got up, about to leave and this Akito said,
"Kira, my sweet witch, I will love to take you up on that offer.
"What offer?" she narrowed her eyes.
"Don't you remember? his words echoed in her head and hen a memory flew out hit her straight in the face,
"Go away!" a nine year old Akito screamed.
"I just… just wanted to give you this." a six year old Kira put a small bouquet of jasmines on the table.
"Why? Why would YOU give me THOSE?" Akito spat out, recognizing the flowers from the Sohma landscape, jasmines were everywhere in the estate.
"I picked them for you."
"WHY?"
"Because… you seem lonely and I wanted to tell you I will be your friend if you wanted." Kira whispered softly.
Akito stood stunned and then yelled,
"GET OUT! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
"FORGET THAT OFFER! I'M LEAVING! Like you REQUESTED!" Kira sneered at him and Akito only called out,
"You'll come back, you always do, you can't stop." as Kira disappeared into the heavy woods and hollow silence of Akito's words.
"THAT FUCKING ASSHOLE! Playing with my emotions with a silly story that isn't even true! What does he mean I can't stop? Why would I keep going back there?" Kira thought in disbelief of his words but she never knew how true they were and how much they would decide her future…
Shigure's House:
"I'll get it!" Tohru cried out when they heard a knock on the door.
"Hello Jake! What are you doing here?" Tohru greeted.
"I came to pick Kira up. We had plans today." Jake replied as Tohru showed him into the dining room where everyone was eating lunch.
"Really? Like what?" Shigure asked curiously.
"Day in town, nothing really important, but can I come here for tonight again?" Jake asked
"Why?" Yuki asked him
"Movie WEEKEND marathon, of course!" emphasizing 'weekend' and he grinned.
"Why can't you do it at your place?" Kyo asked bitterly
"Sure you can do it here!" Shigure squealed.
"Yay!" Jake cheered.
"Yay?" Kira came in, raising one eyebrow at Jake.
"We can have movie night here again!"
"A-a-again?" Kira stammered, so far Samara and her chainsaw pal hadn't haunted her yet.
"Don't worry! Horror movies are so yesterday!" Jake beamed and Kira smiled,
"What are you doing here?"
"Hello? Don't you remember? Day in town? SHOPPING?"
"Hmm… no… but if it's shopping, then let's go!" Kira grabbed Jake and began to drag him out of the house.
"Wait! You have your credit card?" Jake asked, pulling her back into the dining room.
"Credit card?" Shigure asked with interest.
"Eh? Which one?" Kira asked, getting her wallet out of her pocket.
"Well of course the platinum one!" Jake replied exasperated.
"WHA? YOU HAVE A PLATINUM ONE?" Shigure wailed. Everyone looked at him like he was insane.
"Yeah…?" Kira answered, confused.
"Aren't you too young?" Yuki asked
"I guess… Jake's dad did some legal stuff so I can have one. It's not like I'm irresponsible." Kira said, tossing her hair back.
"Yeah right! You freaked out over scary movies!" Kyo laughed.
"That's not FAIR! I'm a member of society and I don't even have a SILVER OR GOLD ONE!" Shigure continued whining.
"That has nothing to do with responsibility, STUPID CAT!" Yuki snapped.
"Don't call me STUPID! DAMN RAT!"
"Let's go!" Jake grabbed Kira and they left the house.
"You don't even know what responsibility is! Stupid cat!"
"SHUT UP!" Kyo stomped up the stairs and everyone heard the door slam.
"Idiot…" Yuki muttered.
"Kyo-kun…" Tohru said softly but Yuki stopped her and shook his head,
"Leave him alone."
Street:
"Where to first?" Jake asked.
"That old bookstore." Kira said walking ahead.
"This one?" Jake stopped in front of a bookstore that had a sign, 'Shiraki Bookstore'.
"Yeah." Kira entered and the door creaked open.
"Welcome!" a slightly old woman greeted.
"Um, hi…" Kira smiled back.
"Mom? Who is it- Kira-kun?" a voice asked and Kira looked up,
SPOILER AHEAD, kind of…
"Sensei? What are you doing here?" Kira asked incredulously as she stared at her high school teacher, Mayuko.
"My father owns this store as a hobby. I'm just helping. What are you doing here? Don't you teens have anything better to do other then criticize an old bookstore?" Mayuko accused sharply.
"I'm looking for an old book. In Latin if you have it but Japanese is fine." Kira said.
"Oh! Come with me!" Mayuko's mother bustled Kira to the back room.
"And who are you?" Mayuko narrowed her eyes at Jake. He was wearing a black shirt and black jeans and a black leather jacket hid him from the cold.
"Delinquent… hardcore delinquent, trying to rob this store I bet…" Mayuko thought.
"I'm Jake Katsura. I'm with Kira." he replied
"Katsura? You are not related to Masaki Katsura, are you?"
"The politician in England? Yeah I am…"
"You don't look like him, you don't look Japanese either." Mayuko cocked her head to the side, staring at Jake's features, remembering what Masaki Katsura looked like on the news.
"I'm mixed, my mother is Irish. That's why my name isn't Japanese either."
"What's a rich English kid doing in Japan?"
"I'm with Kira, I told you that! And I came for a book." Jake replied hesitantly
"What book?"
"Um…"
"What book? It can't be a bad book! Unless…" Mayuko eyed him suspiciously.
"The new Shigure Sohma's book." he whispered quickly
"The what?"
"The new Shigure Sohma's book." he whispered again.
"What? Speak up!" she snapped, annoyed and her eyes were beginning to hurt looking at his bright pink highlights.
"THE SHIGURE SOHMA BOOK!" he finally shouted as Kira came out, holding a dusty leather covered book.
"Shigure-chan? I thought you stopped stalking him." Kira said as she took out her credit card to pay.
"Shigure Sohma? You read his books?" Mayuko stared at him and then saw Kira giving her credit card to her mother.
"Hey! That's not a fake card is it?" she snapped.
"No." Kira sighed. This was getting annoying.
"Hasn't ANYONE here ever seen a credit card before?" Kira thought, exasperated.
"Well here you go Katsura-san! Thank you for shopping!" Mayuko's mother handed Kira her credit card and a bag with her book in it.
"Katsura? Are you two…?" Mayuko was putting two and two together.
"NO!" Kira shouted.
"Then why do you have his last name?" Mayuko asked
"Because-"
"And why do you use Sohma at school?"
"Beca-"
"What are you hiding? Are you secretly engaged or something?" Mayuko continued to bombard Kira with questions. Jake just watch as he waited for Mayuko's mother to get him Shigure's new book.
"NO! I am NEVER going to marry HIM!" she pointed at Jake who just raised both his hands up, surrendering.
"I didn't do anything!" he whined.
Kira stared at her until Mayuko's mother came out.
"Here you go!" she handed Jake his book and Jake handed her some money.
"Thank you!" he grinned.
"Let's go." Kira tugged Jake's arm.
"So you are hiding something!" Mayuko accused in triumph.
"Aren't we all?" Kira said emotionlessly and left the store.
Street:
"So where to next?" Jake asked as he opened the book but Kira snatched it away from him.
"Shoes. I need more shoes." she replied.
"Give me that book back!" Jake complained.
"Not until we get all the shoes I need." Kira said, smiling.
"You can't hold my book for ransom!"
"Turn here. I see a boutique." Kira said, ignoring him completely.
"KIRA!" Jake rushed after her, whining.
"This is for showing all those scary movies." Kira said calmly as she entered the boutique.
"Kira! This isn't fair!" Jake continued protesting.
Shigure's Room:
"So you released your newest book?" Hatori asked Shigure over the phone.
"Yep! The BESTEST book!" Shigure grinned.
"I'm going to pick up a copy later."
"WHY? DOES HAA-SAN LIKE MY BOOKS NOW?" Shigure shouted in the phone, excited.
"NO. I'm just doing it so you can keep a steady income and so your editor won't kill herself when you go broke and she loses her job."
"Haa-san! You can't read it!" Shigure exclaimed, remembering what he actually wrote.
"Eh? Why? What did you do Shigure?" Hatori accused anxiously.
"Nothing! I did nothing Haa-san!" Shigure replied, trying to be emotionless but guilt still shone through.
"Oh…Oh! I get it. This is some trick so I will buy the sick book…"
"Yeah right! Why would I do that to Haa-san?" Shigure said a bit too cheerfully; figuring that going along with Hatori's accusation would prevent him from buying the book.
"I decided I'm not going to buy your stupid book."
"Awww, Haa-san… you're so mean!" Shigure whined childishly.
"Good Haa-san… don't buy the book, good seahorse…" Shigure thought in relief.
"I have to go. Good bye." and then there was a click.
"Bye!" Shigure and hung a few seconds too late.
"Good thing Jake doesn't read my books anymore, that would have been a problem…" Shigure admired at how well things seem to be going for him, now.
"If I only had a platinum credit card…things would be perfect…" Shigure thought jealously.
Shigure's House:
"AGH!" a loud moan was heard from the dining room.
"What the hell?" Kyo yelled, coming downstairs but tripped over a shopping bag.
"Agh! Kyo! You're ruining my SHOES!" Kira cried out.
"AGH!" Jake moaned again,
"So many shoes…"
"You bought all of this? IN ONE DAY?" Kyo shouted at her.
"Yes." she replied, pulling some shoeboxes from a bag and peering at them. She had carefully put the book she bought on her lap, underneath a few boxes of shoes.
"My, my, look at all of these bags!" Shigure said in wonder as he came in.
"Hi Shigure!" Kira greeted
"What did you buy today Kira-chan?" Shigure smiled as he poured himself a cup of tea.
"Hmm… nothing much, a few outfits and some shoes."
"SOME?" Jake exploded and then continued,
"SOME? YOU CALL OVER 60 PAIRS OF SHOES 'SOME'?"
"WHAT? OVER 60 pairs?" Kyo exclaimed.
"Oh! Do you have those shoes that strap all the way up to your knees?" Shigure asked out of complete randomness.
"Yep! Of course! They're so cute!" Kira grinned. Kyo and Jake just stared at Shigure with blank, confused eyes.
"Uh huh." Shigure agreed.
"Oh! Kira! Jake! You're back! You had quite a shopping day?" Tohru smiled as she stared at the shopping bags, entering the room.
"Yep! I bought you a pair of shoes but I didn't know your size so I bought a shoe per size." Kira handed Tohru 3 bags.
"Eh? EH? I couldn't!"
"It's alright. I would be so much happier if you accept them." Kira said tactfully in a way Tohru would accept them.
"I can't let Kira become unhappy!" Tohru thought.
"Oh! Thank you! Thank you so much!" Tohru replied graciously.
"It worked…" Kira thought and then she saw a white thing flash behind Jake.
"AGH! I SAW THEM AGAIN!" Kira pointed.
"Not again!" Kyo exclaimed, annoyed.
"Good! Now I would like my book back!" Jake pouted.
"Fine here! Make them go away!" Kira threw Jake's book at him.
"Finally!" Jake replied happily and was about to read when Shigure exclaimed,
"Hey! That's MY book!"
"I thought I try out the new one." Jake shrugged and began to read it again.
"WAIT!" Shigure cried out.
"Eh?" everyone stared at him.
"It's…um, it's MOVIE TIME!"
"Oh yeah!" Jake cried out, putting the book on the table and three videotapes came out of nowhere.
"Phew… that was close, now I have to get it…" Shigure thought.
"What movies are those?" Kira asked warily, inching closer to Kyo.
"Hmm… The Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th and Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl." Jake grinned.
"What is WRONG with you?" Kyo yelled.
"I thought we weren't going to watch scary movies! Damn you Jake!" Kira snapped at Jake.
"Pirates of the Caribbean isn't scary!" Jake protested.
"Aren't there skeletons?" Shigure asked, ushering everyone to the TV room and was about to leave them.
"Um…" Jake stalled.
"Skeletons? They aren't scary. And where's Yuki?" Kira frowned
"He had some student council thing." Tohru replied
"Liar! Probably just trying to avoid this stupid movie night!" Kyo accused
"Where are you going Shigure-chan?" Kira asked, watching Shigure suspiciously
"Um… I'll go get the popcorn!" Shigure laughed nervously and ran to the kitchen.
"Now to get that book…" he muttered and perused the kitchen table where Jake had put the book only to find Haru and Momiji sitting, drinking tea.
"Eh? If you two are here for movie night, everyone is in the TV room." Shigure said.
"Ok! Thank you Shigure!" Momiji ran to the TV room while Haru shrugged and walked out.
"Now! To get that book!" Shigure said with determination and went to where Jake was sitting and it wasn't THERE.
"WHAT? WHERE DID IT GO? AGH!" Shigure panicked but nobody heard him since Jake had turned the volume up for the movie.
TV Room:
"Damn it!" Jake whispered.
"What?" Kira asked, her eyes shut tight.
"I can't read my book! It's too dark!"
Mini- cliffy… I think… LOL!
The spoiler was about Mayuko and her shop... nota huge spoiler but it still spoils...lol...
What will Kira do? Will she go back to Akito? Will Jake ever get to read his book? Will Shigure ever get to steal it?
FIND OUT NEXT TIME!
