A/N: I thought I'd make things interesting. Hope you guys like the chapter. Read and review and I'll update soon. night.

-Reyra-

When I saw Akito had my father's guitar in his hand and saw his intention to smash it, I acted on pure instinct and charged at him.

"NO!"

I cried as I knocked him to the ground and managed to get the guitar from him. I rolled away from him and cradled the guitar to my chest. I heard his laughter and turned to look at the so called 'God' all Zodiacs were suppose to respect and listen to.

"If you don't want anything happening to that precious guitar of yours, then I suggest you answer my question."

He said and I glared at him.

"You touch this guitar and I swear to you, it will be the last thing you do."

I said through clenched teeth and he smirked at me before suddenly appearing right infront of me.

"And what are you going to do about it? I'm God."

He said before he slapped me and sent me flying into the wall. I clutched my father's guitar close to my body and started to cry out as my back hit the wall, but bit my lip to keep from doing so. I wasn't going to give this sick bastard the pleasure of knowing he hurt me.

"Get up."

He said, but I didn't listen. I moved so my body was crouched over the guitar so he couldn't reach any part of it.

"I said get up!"

He yelled before I felt him hit my back. I groaned, but didn't move.

"Get up!"

He yelled again and this time when he hit me I felt the lash of what felt like a whip. I clenched my teeth together and didn't move.

"Damn you."

He said before I felt a sharp, swift kick to my ribs before my head collided with the wall again. I blinked back the spots that invaded my vision and just managed to get out of the way as he moved to slap me.

"What kind of Zodiac are you?"

He asked and I glared at him.

"Fuck you!"

I yelled at him and heard him growl before he grabbed a fistful of my hair and yanked my head back. I felt his other hand creep up to my neck and I gasped when he lifted me off my feet. I clutched my father's guitar closer to my chest with one hand while I tried to claw at Akito's hand with my other one. I heard him laugh at me and glared at him. He was my God, even if I didn't want him to be, and that meant I couldn't fight back even at the expense of my life. The fact that I had tackled him because of a guitar gave him enough reasoning to kill me.

"I should kill you for that stunt you pulled earlier, but I'll show mercy and let you live."

He said and I glared at him, there had to be a catch.

"But in return, that guitar has to go."

He said as he reached down and grabbed hold of my father's guitar. I growled and tried to yank it away from him, but he slapped me and my hold on it loosened enough so that he could get it. He raised it over his head and threw it out into the yard. I watched horrified as it landed, but breathed a painful sigh of relief when I saw it was still in tact.

"Fucking piece of junk."

Akito said as he moved to go break it himself, but I launched myself at him and knocked him to the ground.

"Why you…"

He said, but I growled down at him.

"I told you already, touch that guitar and it'll be the last thing you do."

I said and he smirked up at me before punching me in the face. It hurt, but I didn't care. I hit him back. Him being my God be damned, I'll kill anyone who touches my father's guitar.

He kicked me off of him and I groaned when my back hit the wall again.

"You little bitch."

He cried as he got to his feet and came over to me. The guitar was safely out of the room and I had already hit him, no going back now. I brought my legs up and kicked him away from me, but it only made him stumble back a couple of feet. I moved forward and crouched down, ready for anything he could possibly throw at me.

"This should be interesting."

He said with a smirk before charging at me.

'I won't be able to last long. My best bet is to knock him out.'

I thought before ducking his kick and placing my hands, palm down on the wooden floor and spinning myself as I kicked the shit out of Akito and sent him flying through the shoji doors. I got to my feet and once I was sure he wasn't getting up, I picked up my father's guitar and headed in the direction I thought was the main gate.

-Haru-

I followed after Yuki and Kyo until the main house came into view. I ran ahead of them and hopped over the bordering gate and ran straight for Akito's house. I could hear Kyo and Yuki calling my name, but ignored them. I didn't care about anything except for getting to Reyra. I could feel my black side wanted to come out, but I was fighting my hardest to keep it in. The last thing I needed right now was to go black. I turned right and stopped short. Kyo and Yuki caught up to me, but I didn't notice them I was too busy looking at the red and black haired figure limping my way with her head down and a guitar clutched in her hands. I could see the cuts and bruises on her body and knew instantly that Akito had done that to her.

"Reyra!"

I called out as me, Yuki and Kyo ran towards her. She looked up and I saw the relief in her eyes when she saw us. Kyo started to pick her up, but she whimpered when his hand his her ribs.

"Move, I got this."

I said as I moved forward and knelt down infront of her.

"Get on."

I said and she was going to protest, but stopped and I felt her climb on my back after having handed Kyo her guitar. I didn't even look back as I ran towards the front gate and jumped over it, I could tell Yuki and Kyo were right behind me. It was silent until we got the woods that surrounded all of Shigure's house. That's when Reyra spoke.

"Let me down."

She said and I was going to ignore her until she started to struggle in my grip.

"I said let me down dammit."

She said and I stopped and knelt down so she could get off. She didn't say anything else as she started walking towards Shigure's house. I noticed she wasn't limping anymore, but the cuts and bruises were still evident and I could tell she was in pain. Being cursed with being a member of the Zodiac, any Zodiac meant we were fast healers, but the wounds she has would take a while to heal.

"Reyra…."

Kyo said and she stopped to look back at him.

"I just want to get back to the house okay?"

She asked and we nodded.

Kyo stayed behind while I walked slightly beside her and Yuki walked a little ahead of her. We were trying to make sure she didn't collapse or anything. That's when she stepped on something and started to fall. I moved to catch her, but Yuki got there first and caught her, but the way she'd fallen made them both fall to the ground and her lips brush against his. They both blushed and I heard them say something, but it seemed muted as everything seemed to zone out. I knew what was happening and had no way to stop it, my black side was coming out.

-Yuki-

Reyra had tripped over something and started to fall. Haru and I both moved to catch her, but I caught her. Though we fell to the ground and she landed ontop of me, but what shocked me was when I felt her lips brush against mine. My eyes widened as Reyra pulled back and blushed. I could feel myself blushing as well.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…"

She said, but I shook my head.

"No, it's my fault. I'm sorry."

I said and looked away from her. I looked up at Haru and noticed the zoned out look in his eyes and cursed as I realized he'd gone Black.

"What the hell was that Yuki? You trying to take advantage of her while she's hurt? I didn't know you were that kind of guy."

He said with a smirk and I sighed as I got to my feet and helped Reyra up as well.

"What's wrong with Haru?"

Reyra asked and I sighed.

"He's gone Black."

I said and she looked at me confused as Haru turned on Kyo.

"And you you sissy little cat! Were you just going to stand there and watch as Yuki had his way with her or were you going to join in on the fun too?"

He asked and I saw Reyra's eyes roll to the back of her head and she started to collapse.

"Reyra!"

I cried as I caught her. That caught the attention of both Kyo and Haru.

"Is she alright?"

Kyo asked and I shook my head as I lifted her bridal style in my arms.

"No, she just blacked out."

I said and turned to look at Haru who had calmed down, but was still Black.

"We should get her back to Shigure's."

I said and they all nodded before we started running for the house. Shigure, Momiji, and Tohru were waiting for us on the porch. As soon as they saw Reyra in my arms they ran towards us.

"Is she okay?"

Momiji asked and I shook my head as I handed her off to Haru so I could stay and tell the others what had happened. I saw him and Kyo go into the house and turned back to Shigure and the others and started to tell them what happened once Haru and I followed Kyo out of the lunchroom.
