Blank stares and open mouths was not the reaction that I had wanted but I will take what I get. I know that they thought I was crazy and hey maybe I was, but I wanted to do this. I wanted to kill the man responsible for the deaths of countless innocence and most of all I wanted to give freedom to those of his family that he oppressed. To say that I was terrified of him was an understatement, but I wanted this, I was compelled to do it. The first thing to do thought was to save Kyoko from the man that she was bounded to. To Kyo that job went and to Tohru I told her to gather all the weapons that she could for we were going to need them. I was going to lure Akito to a place where we could face off. How I wasn't sure but my cousin had an idea. Yes Shigure thought about it which made it really scary.

Shigure's Plan:

So Akito as most people know is a very, god oriented person and fears things that may anger them. This fear has narrowed his mind to certain ideas of truth, love and justice, given that fact I devised a devilish idea that only a religious zealot would go for. My darling love and Yuki's brother Ayame are going to pose out in the village in a way that makes it look like we are having sex. Akito for sure will mistranslate that as a sin (even though it is not) and will chase us down. Then Yuki can pick up the fight and kill the asshole and we can all go back for some yummy tea made by our beautiful flower. It's definitely a crazy idea but it might just work. As long as nothing goes wrong.

Tohru Preparing:

To Lucy: I want you to give me all your power Lucy and take over my body. It is time for the final fight and you are going to be there!

Yesssss I have waited for ssssssooo long. I can tassssssste hiss blood. If itsssss power you want, power I have.

Kyo getting ready:

Please let mom be cooperative we need her now more than ever before. Why is it always me that has to do the hard work? Jeez everyone else has it so easy, well maybe not rat boy. What does he want anyway, to get the glory and fame from killing this monster? No I know what he wants and he can't have her. Tohru is my sister and she will remain pure. Well I better get started, I have all my weapons just in case Akito is there. Now I need to move out.

3rd person:

The plan was set into action, with Kyo going first. Tohru kissed him good bye and wished him to come back to her safely. It was a hard road to take but he had a soldiers wit about him. No way would he fail on this simple task, so simple that he could probably do it in his sleep. He walked briskly to the house of Akito as he was instructed to do. Sadly he had arrived to late, whoever was inside was in danger, for when he arrived smoke billowed out of all the windows and doors. *I can't risk having mom still inside!* Kyo plunged into the house that was quickly catching fire. Coughing, choking, eyes burning from the embers, he pushed head long into the flames to try and find survivors. Unfortunately, Kyo was getting weaker by the minute and he began to stumble and loose balance. There was an object in his way as he walked through the house and he fell on it. He laid down only to feel the softness of skin and the curves of a woman beneath him. Finally found Kyo helped his mother, dragging her all the way, out of the house.

Kyo laid his head down only for a second once outside and in the grass. Then he went over to his mother to check her body for injuries. Through all the dirt on her body though he could not see that there was blood caked on her shirt near her abdomen.

"Mom you're alright!"

"No son I'm not."

"But Mom, I saved you from the fire."

Slowly she lifted her shirt to reveal a sword wound that had pierced her stomach. It was deadly, Kyo could tell that from the second he saw it. Drops started to fall from his eyes, drops of salt water, drops of tears, for his mother. He bent over her and wept like a child for the first time since he had been a child. Kyoko began to rub his head as he let out a wail of sorrow and pain.

"I am sorry Kyo."

"For what mom, you didn't do anything?"

"Yes I did, I am the one who got us in this mess. Had I not married that man you and your sister would not have had been turned into the people you are now."

"You didn't know he would be like this when you married. It is not your fault."

"Actually that is not the whole truth. Akito isn't the one I chose to marry, he was my last resort, because no one would take in a woman that had already been made impure."

"What are you saying mom I don't understand."

//cough-cough-cough//

"I am trying to tell you that Akito is not your real father."
