Chapter 9
Tohru woke with a headache, she opened her eyes but they were blurry. When she closed them, she was starting to guess where she is. She was in a futon facing the wall, it was dusty and old. Then, she heard a voice from behind.
"She will not have Yuki no matter what!" It was Akito's voice, "How dare she come to our lives, who she thinks she is? I'm the head of the family! Not her!"
Tohru did not dare opened her eyes and just pretend that she is still out.
"She will be shipped away... Somewhere she can never find her way home" Akito said on very menace voice, "Yes, she will be taken away from those bastards!"
Tohru closed her eyes and did her best not to move. Her heart is in pain and could not breathe, she was going to be taken away from her family and from the person she loves so dearly.
That morning when everyone woke up, Kagura and Kisa noticed that Tohru was not in her bed. When they came down for breakfast, the noticed that the rest of the group was downstairs looking like someone just died. It was Momiji that filled the two girls in, he was sobbing.
"It's Tohru... Akito took her..." Momiji said at every sobbing, "He was here...And...and we weren't there to protect her!"
Hatori handed Kagura a piece of paper and read it out loud.
You shall never be happy
And for that to happen
I will take the center source of your happiness
The Flower and the Princess
Of the Zodiacs!
-Akito
Kisa started crying, Haru and Hiro tried to calm her but none worked. Kagura sat on a near by chair and quietly cried, she then looked up.
"W-where's Yuki?" Kagura asked, looking around for the rat but someone else was gone too, "And Kyo?"
"They went looking for Tohru..." Hatori said, "We will join them now since you girls are awake... We will divide into two groups."
It was then decided; Haru, Kisa Momiji and Hatori went to the left path to the forest. Shigure, Aya, Hiro and Kagura took the right path to the forest. Ritsu was left behind to look after the house and be the look out if anything happens.
Yuki was running forward, his feet carried him someplace far from the house. His only thing on his mind is the lady he loves.
'Hang on Tohru... I'm coming!' Yuki promised silently.
The cat was on his trail and also, the rest of the group is not far behind them.
'Damn mouse... His fast when he wants to be...His been holding up on me like I thought...' Kyo have followed Yuki since he left the house because Aya asked him to. Also, he decided to go because of Tohru's sake.
'I know I could never have her... But this is one of the things I can do for her...' The cat sighs and quickly avoids any twigs that would cut him up.
The boat was already on the shore and Akito was pulling Tohru towards it.
"COME ON YOU LITTLE BITCH!" Akito yelled angrily, "THERE'S NOTHING FOR YOU HERE!"
"Yes there is Akito! Yuki and the others are here!" Tohru was already in tears and could not stop, "I belong with them!"
"NO YOU DON'T!" Akito slapped Tohru across the face, "YOU DO NOT BELONG WITH THE SOHMAS, NEVER BEEN! NOW MOVE!"
Akito was not pulling Tohru by her hair. The boat man was trembling with fear watching this poor girl be shipped away from the people she loved and adore for a very long time. When the two reached the boat a voice yelled from behind.
"TOHRU!" It was Yuki and Kyo appearing in view.
Akito twirled around and bring Tohru to her knees, her gown soaked with sea water.
"YUKI! KYO! HELP ME!" Tohru plead.
"We're here for you Tohru," Yuki was 2 feet away from Akito and Kyo hold his position behind him, "Let Tohru go Akito...Now!"
"Yuki... Are you going to defy me? You're Master?" Akito's voice was plain evil, "Didn't you forget that you can never be happy with out me?"
"I found my happiness Akito and you have to let her go!" Yuki's fist tightened and he took a step forward.
Akito hold tight into Tohru hair and pulled her even further near the boat.
"There's nothing you can do... Neither would that damn cursed cat!" Akito hissed with anger when he looked at Kyo, "Damn stupid cat!"
Kyo also took a step forward but with cautious, "Let her go..."
In that moment, the rest of the group appeared from the clearing, "TOHRU!"
"G-guys help me!" Tohru's tears worsen; her head began to spin when Akito pulled her hair even tighter, "its hurts Akito... Please, let me go!"
"SHUT UP BITCH!" Akito drag Tohru down even further to the water that she has to balance her self with both hands, "YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TALK TO ME!"
The rest of the group joined Yuki and Kyo. Shigure and Hatori came forward just a little.
"Akito... What on earth are you doing to Tohru?" Shigure asked, "She have done nothing to you!"
"Shut up dog! You, you also defy me!" Akito pointed at Shigure like his some kind of freak.
"Akito...Please, let Tohru go!" Hatori pleaded, "Please, let her go..."
"Shut up Hatori! You also defy me!" Akito's raged became violent that Tohru suffered even more, "EVERYONE OF YOU DEFYED ME!"
Akito started to cough uncontrollably but his strength remained.
"If...If the source of your happiness is this damn wretched girl..." Akito smiled evilly, "THEN SHE WILL BE GONE FOR GOOD!"
Yuki jumped into actions followed by; Kyo, Shigure, Hatori, Aya and Haru. Yuki got hold of Akito's left arm and so did Haru, Kyo managed to get hold of the right arm with Shigure, Hatori and Aya did their best to un folded Akito's grip on Tohru's hair.
"L-let her... g-go... Akito!" They all said at once.
Akito was out numbered and so he let go of Tohru's hair. Kagura came running with Kisa and got Tohru to safety. When the boys let go of Akito, the Sohma head began to laugh.
"You...You ALL defied me for some STUPID BITCH!" Akito's anger was now out of control, "YOU ALL GOING TO REGRET DEFYING ME!"
It was then Akito pulled a hidden gun from his back and pointed it at Tohru. Everyone gasped in fear. Before Akito pulled the trigger, Yuki jumped in the way.
"No... I won't let you hurt her like this Akito...Not ever!" Yuki stood his ground.
"Very well... I'll start with you!" Akito pulled the trigger, "Good bye!"
There was a gun shot, a scream and then there was silence.
