Hello everybody, it's finally here, the chapter you've all been waiting for! Her secrets are finally going to be revealed, like I promised!

Thank you everyone for reading my story!

Chapter 14_Sakura's secrets unveiled…

I was shocked. "Kyo wants to know my secrets, does he know they could hurt him, does he know they cut deeper than any knife?" I thought. Akito gave an evil smirk. "This is the end" he thought.

"I really want to know, no matter who tells me" Kyo told me. "Kyo do you care a lot about me?" I asked. He felt the question was strange to ask in this situation, but he wasn't going to avoid it. "Off course, I care a lot about you" he said.

I was on the verge of tears. "Then you shouldn't want to hear these secrets, they could hurt you" I told him. "I still want to know" he was persistent. "Could we get on with this, I don't have all day and Sakura won't have all day to pack up her things" Akito said.

His words stung like a thousand needles. The thought about me packing up my things and leaving Shigure's house, it made me so unhappy. "So…" he began, but was soon interrupted. "No! Akito please don't tell him, he'll hate me, you know he will" I begged. "It's too late for that Sakura, you should have thought about it before you left the house" he told me.

He was right, if I never left the house, than Kyo wouldn't have to know my secrets. "Sakura, please, I want to know and I promise you, you won't pack your things, you won't leave Shigure's house" Kyo told me. His eyes held mine, it made me somewhat feel at ease.

"Now tell me" he directed at Akito. "Okay then, I suppose I should start from the beginning. Her mother fell in love with Sakura's father while she was still married to someone else, she gained a curse, her zodiac form" he stopped to make sure he was following.

Kyo nodded. "Her zodiac form is a black cat" he informed Kyo. Kyo's eyes widened. He didn't think it was possible. He glanced at me before he looked back at Akito. "Go on" he told him.

Akito smirked. "Her mother isn't around anymore because her husband found out about her affair and so he took custody of Sakura and he became her stepfather. She was closely watched by me and was never a loud to leave the house because…how should I put this" he was certainly enjoying telling this story.

I had a pained expression on my face. "He's telling the story, but leaving most of the information out, why?" I wanted to know. "You were ashamed of me, that's why you kept me locked up" I said. "That's the word I was looking for. I was ashamed of her because she was also a cat like your self Kyo. She meant nothing to me and yet…" he was cut off.

"Stop playing stupid games with me Akito cut to the chase, you're leaving a whole heap of information out of that story, who was her stepfather? Why were you ashamed of her?" Kyo was angry at Akito.

"Sorry, I thought you would have figured it out by now. Her stepfather was my father and her mother was my mother, me and Sakura share the same bloodline though I try to deny. A cat can never share the same bloodline as me. She's a disgrace to the Sohma family name just like you" Akito told him.

I could clearly see the shock on Kyo's face. I knew Akito shouldn't have told him. He hates Akito and I'm Akito half-sister, so in the end he'll hate me as well. That's how I saw things.

I reached out for him, but he gently pulled away. Akito saw this and felt satisfied. He had won. "Now tell me Kyo, do you still like Sakura, knowing that she is my half-sister?" Akito questioned.

Kyo didn't answer. It suddenly started raining. "Perfect" Akito thought. "Kyo, why don't you show my little sister just what you really are, she claims that she knows about your form and that she has seen it, why not show her now and let her tell you exactly what she thinks of you" Akito ordered him.

Kyo hesitated. He didn't know what he felt right now. Sakura was Akito's half-sister, the person he hated with his entire being. "Sakura revealed her secrets, should I reveal mine?" he thought. "She said she has seen it, but has she seen it up close?"

In a flash Akito was right in front of Kyo and ripped his beads from his arm. Kyo didn't so much as flinch from his movement. I gasped at what I saw. Kyo didn't put up a fight to keep his form sealed up, the form he hated.

He transformed right in front of my eyes. My eyes widened. I have never seen his form up close before and now I did. "So tell me Sakura" Kyo addressed me. "What do you think of me now?"

Akito was entirely enjoying himself. Kyo looked at me with his eyes that have changed as well, he has changed completely. I hid my eyes with my bangs. "I've never seen your form up close before. At first sight it looks terrifying and I feel like running, but…" I began.

I lifted my face so I can meet eye to eye with Kyo. "I'm not scared of you, not one bit. You are still you. No matter what form you take on I want to look into your eyes the same way"

Akito wasn't satisfied with the result. "Now give him back his beads, brother" I said with so much disgust. Akito threw the beads at me.

I held it out towards Kyo. He took them without hesitation and slipped them on his wrist. In no time he changed back to his normal form. "Let's go Sakura" Akito said.

I was going to follow. "She's not going anywhere" Kyo said glaring at Akito. I was surprised. "He doesn't hate me?" I thought as I looked at him. He looked angry at Akito. "What?" Akito hissed out.

Kyo gave a smug smirk. "You really thought I would hate her because she's your half-sister?" he said more than asked. "You may share the same bloodline, but let's get one thing straight, Sakura is not you and she's nothing like you either"

"Kyo" I thought as I smiled. A few tears rolled down my cheeks. Akito clenched his fists in anger. "You forget I'm still head of this family" he reminded us. "And we're nothing but outcasts, so you have no say over us, Akito" I told him.

He was furious. Without another word he left. There was silence between me and Kyo for moment, not one of us willing to speak yet. "I'm sorry" I broke the silence. "I'm sorry that I didn't trust you enough to tell you" "It's okay" he assured me. "I'm sorry too, for being a jerk sometimes and for being in doubt, when Akito said you were his sister, I completely lost it I felt like running and never coming back, but I promised you that I wouldn't run and even though I felt like running, I couldn't leave you behind and that's when I realized, you aren't Akito, you are you"

Sure enough his words reached my heart and the tears came again. I couldn't help it. "Sakura don't cry" he said, he didn't want to see me sad. "These are happy tears" I smiled.

That's it! Her secrets came out. I've made enough cliff hangers for a while so I thought I'd put the whole scene in here. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I hope it's not rushed or anything. Please review and tell me what you think about it.

The next chapter will be out soon, I think I'll write at least 2 more chapters before the story ends! I'll try to update before I go visit my grandma for 2 weeks. It's Wednesday today so tomorrow I'll update chapter 15 and Friday I'll put up chapter 16 and then the story is at its end…I can't help, but cry, but to all honesty this is the first story I would be finishing, I have the tendency to write stories and never finish them they just go on and on…anyway enough with my babbling, all of should have a wonderful vacation!

Chi-Chan! :)
