Nine Tail
By: Lady Danielle
Welcome Back
It's been a week since Satomi visit Shigure's house everyone still misses Miss. Honda Tohru at the Sohma and half of the Sohma Estate. Tonight was mens night out for Ayame, Hatori, and Shigure were they will go and have dinner and talk about old times. They were in Hotari's car and he was driving while Shigure was in the passenger seat and Ayame sat in the back seat. In the street on this side of town, where all the homes, apartments, small stores, and churches.
"I'm so happy Satomi is coming back to work tomorrow." Ayame said while looking out the window.
Tohru snuck out of the estate with her uncle Shindara. Shindara was a huge black Python. He asked Tohru to come out with him so he can get stuff from his office. It was in the middle of the night and Tohru was in her pink night gown wearing pink bunny years slippers. They were walking down a block to his small book store. Tohru was having a little trouble with all the voices she was hearing. The birds, rats, mice, lizards, and other little animals in the area were talking or mating and she heard ever world. Her Shindara and Tohru were about to cross the street but Tohru didn't move but Shindara did but noticed Tohru was still on the side walk.
Shindara went over to her and circled around her leg and up to her shoulder and to her face. "Tohru, are you all right?"
"Huh?" Tohru looks at her uncle with tears in her eyes. "I-I'm fine."
"No your not, your hearing the voices again, aren't you?"
"Yes!" Tohru cries while holding her head. "I-It hurts so much."
"Calm down Tohru," Shindara said while hugging around her stomach. "How about you head back to the Estate while I go."
"But I–
"Please, I can get my things for myself. You go back." Shindara got on the ground. "You have school tomorrow anyway. Go."
Tohru nods while walking back slowly while hearing a voice.
'I'm going to get you,' the cat said. 'I know you hear me! I'm going to kill you and your family!'
After that voice came others and it gave Tohru a huge headache. She stops, holds her head, and screams. "STOP IT! MOM, PLEASE HELP ME!"
"Tohru?" Some called out to her and she just ran.
It was Ryuichi and Prina taking a midnight walk around town. They said Tohru can go out for the night so she can get used to her powers but it seems she couldn't deal with it. Prina was about to make her not hear the animals but Tohru needs to learn how to control her powers.
"Prina, please I can't stand watching her go on feeling pain." Ryuichi said while looking at his older sister, Prina.
"Give her these gloves before she hurts someone." Prina gives black gloves to Ryuichi before he went running after Tohru. 'I'm sorry Prina but you have to learn control.' A tear comes down her cheek.
In a restaurants parking lot were the three men parking the car. When they did park Ayame got out and looks at the church across the street. He saw a little girl running on the same block and noticed it was Tohru.
"Tohru!" a man behind her yells while running after her.
"Tohru?" Ayame said while using his fan and fan himself then runs towards the church with Hatori and Shigure.
Tohru ran inside the church and runs all the way to the alter and fell in front of a statue of Jesus on the cross. She was still crying her head off and asking for God to get ride of this curse.
"Please, help me. Please God I don't want this." She gets on her knees and folds her hands together and starts praying. "Oh God, please take this curse away from me! I hate it!"
She didn't realized Hitomi was in the church wearing a white gothic Lolita dress with a cross necklace around her neck. She was their with her step- brother Jason.
The doors slam open and four men came in and looking at Tohru crying at the alter . Jason steps in front of them and places a finger on his lips.
"S- so many loses and pain you gave me. I can't stand it no more. Please help me! W-why do I have to be the chosen one? Mom, I miss you so much. I can't do this alone. I am an animal. A animal has no soul. Do I have a soul?" Just then she transform into her Jaguar form and cries even harder.
Uo and Hana came from behind the side doors, both dressed in pajamas. They started to go over to Tohru but Hitomi and Jason went in their way.
"You can't touch her." Hitomi said while looking at Uo.
"Not yet," Jason said to Hana.
In a quick five minutes Tohru turns back and still crying. Jason and Hitomi moves out of Uo and Hana's way and they ran over to Tohru and hugs her.
"Hana, Uo?" Tohru sniffs their names while hugging them back.
"We heard you screaming outside Hana's house." Uo said while hugging her close.
"Our Tohru is in so much pain." Hana said while rubbing Tohru's back gently.
Ayame, Hatori, and Shigure were all in shock in what Tohru turned out to be and what she said. Ryuichi goes in front of them and smiles.
"As much I don't want to do this but," Ryuichi said with his eyes turning bright white. "It works best for Tohru."
It's Monday morning on a February, at the school, and the Honda's have return. Tohru, Reiko, Jason, and Hitomi were in the front of the building wearing their school uniforms and about to head to the principle office to give them a note on why they have been absent from school for a month and two weeks.
"Back to school again," Hitomi smiles while opening the door and going in. "I'm so happy. And I'll take the notes for you while you go to your classes. They start in five minutes."
"A-are you sure Hitomi?" Tohru ask while looking at her younger cousin.
"Yes," Hitomi replied while going into another hallway. "Good bye for now."
"Well, let's get to class while we still have time. I know the Sohma's are going to be so happy to see you Tohru." Reiko smiles at Tohru while taking her hand and leading her down the hall. "Let's go."
"R-right."
"You two go on ahead while I go see someone."
"Don't be late Jason." Tohru said while being led down the hallway by her cousin.
Jason knew Hitomi was up tp no good, he can tell by the look on her face and her speaking. He didn't want her to start anything since it was their first time back to school. As he walk down the hallway then turn the corner to another one he saw his sister going into the student presidents office. He followed her into the office and sees Yuki sitting in the presidents desk. On his sides were Mio Gotou and Minami Kinoshita.
Mio and Minami seemed a little shocked to see Hitomi and him but then again it wasn't surprising.
"Well," Jason close the door behind him and goes to Yuki with a smile. "Congratulations Yuki Sohma on being the School body President."
Yuki got out of his seat and looks Jason and Hitomi. "Thank you but where is–
"Tohru is on her way to class now and feeling much better." Jason continues to smile but once he looks at the fan club girls he frowns. 'Those are the girls Hare was talking about. I can see it in their spirit.'
"I came to give you this Yuki," Hitomi finally spoke up while taking notes out of her pockets and placing them on the desk.
"Hey, you will speak to Prince and President Yuki with manors." Mio said to Hitomi.
"I better be heading to class to see Haru." Hitomi smiles at Jason then Yuki. "See you at lunch Yuki."
Jason watched as her sister leaves then sees Yuki following behind her but he closed the door in his face. "I'm sorry but I have to speak with you. It's very important."
Yuki just stared at him with curiosity written on his face.
Jason looks at the fan club girls with a smiles and opens the door on the side. "May I have a word with Yuki- San, alone please?"
"Right!"
Both girls left the room and Jason closed the door to the room then looks back at Yuki with a serous face on.
"Jason?"
"I'm hear to warn you, Yuki Sohma."
"Warn me, of what?"
"Of my little cousin, Tohru."
"Why?"
"Because now," Jason sighs and goes over to a chair and sits. "She's been through a lot and she told me that you knew our secret of our family."
"Yes."
"Tohru is... she's very special to us and going through some changes right now. She's very important to the Honda family and people are after her if they find out what and who she really is. Things are going to happen that will be coming from her so don't be surprise and you might get a little shocks when you touch her. I know that's kinda hard for you but then again, I do say kinda, because you and your family is the same."
'How did he know?'
"I know this because my power is to scents spirits and your spirit is a rat and since I've seen your family I noticed that you are the twelve zodiac. We are alike but ours is much worse." He gets up and heads for the door. "Let's go to class Mr. President or you will be late and that will be showing a bad examples for others around you."
Hitomi was listening to the whole thing that Jason was telling Yuki and was now on her way to class. When she went to class everyone was so surprised to see her, even the girls that thought she was weird. She was looking forward to seeing Haru and Momiji and not to mention her other friends.
"Hitomi!" Momiji smiles at her while running her way. "It's been so long since I've seen you and the others. Are you guys all right now?"
"Yes," Hitomi replied with no emotion in her voice. "We are all fine and Tohru is in great shape."
"H-hello Hitomi,"
Hitomi looks to her side and sees Haru smiling at her. She couldn't help but blush.
"H-hello H-Haru."
Tohru was in class and everyone was so happy to see that she was well and back to school. Reiko and Kyo were just looking at each other with no kind of emotion on their face. Hana and Uo looks at them and smiles. Tohru was so happy but missed one more person and that person just walked in the room. It was Yuki Sohma.
"Tohru," Yuki smiles while going over to her.
"Yuki, it's been a while, hasn't it?" Tohru smiles while looking up at him.
"It sure has and I missed you so much."
In the corner of the room was the girls that did it to Tohru that day and they were so nervous around her now. They were in the corner and huddled in a group.
"Why is she here?" Mio askd while looking at President Motoko. "She's suppose to be dead."
"Don't panick girls because now we know what Miss. Tohru Honda really is. An animal and we can use it against her so she can stay away from out Prince Yuki." Motoko replied to her member while flipping through her notebook. "At lease our Prince Jason is–
She paused when she looks in her notebook to see writing in red paint. Th other members look at the book in shock. It said:
To: Mai Gotou, Mitoko Minagawa, Mio Yamagishi, and Kimi
Try to take a life and you lose a life...
Someone won't be making it to next year or collage because I know what you did to Tohru Honda in the basement.
The girls panicked by this and all they can do is look at Tohru Honda.
"I don't want to die Mitoko!" Kimi yells at Mitoko. "It was all your idea!"
"Shut up!"
The teacher came in, everyone got to their seats, bowed and sat down. She pastd a paper out that scared Reiko when it came to her. It was a 'Parent and Teacher Meeting.' She knew her mother will be coming up here and it won't be pretty. This day was going so well since she was back to school to see Kyo again but now, this was too much. It would have been different if these letters weren't lettered to the house as well and her uncle Akira put her mothers address on it. It was next week and she was upset.
Kyo noticed a sad look on Reiko's face and taps her on the shoulder. "Are you all right?"
Reiko didn't say anything or look at him.
"Report cards will be coming out next week when it's the meeting with your parents." The teacher said while looking at the students.
Lunch Time
At lunch time the whole gang went in the grass, under a tree and had their lunch. Everyone was so happy but Reiko and this really bothered Reiko.
"The school is going on a field trip to the Tokyo Zoo," Momiji smiles while looking at his permission slip. "I can't wait!"
"I'm looking forward on going," Uo smiles then looks at Hitomi. "Aren't you?"
"Yes, I will ask to go right away. I love the zoo." Hitomi replied.
"I think the zoo won't be safe because how the animals have been acting." Yuki said while looking at his permission slip then looks at Tohru. "Are you looking forward to going Miss. Honda?"
"I- I don't know." Tohru answered him and sighs. "Me and a bunch of animals seems to be very interesting but I have to see what I have left for money."
"That reminds me," Momiji looks at Tohru. "Are you still going to stay at Shigure's house?"
"My family said I could and will be calling Shigure to let him know."
Reiko got up and looks down at eveyone else. "I'll be right back."
Kyo knew something was wrong because she wasn't yelling at him or bothering him at all today.
"What's wrong with Foxy today?" Uo asked Hitomi.
"Parent and Teachers night, remeber?"
"Oh... right. I forgot the deal with her and her mom."
Kyo got up and followed his girlfriend. It took him a few minutes but he found her in the gym sitting on the benches with her head lying on her legs.
"Reiko?" Kyo goes to her and kneels down to see her face. "What's wrong?"
"..." Reiko looks up at him with a sad emotion on her face. "Kyo?"
"Y-you want to talk about it?"
"No," She looks away from him for a moment and then looks back at him. "I'm fine. Thank you for caring."
"I always care about your feelings. I love you and I want to know how you feel." Ky placed a hand on her cheek and moves his face closer to hers. "I know you're hidding something from m but I want you to know that I'm hear for you."
"I know Kyo and I love you to. I missed you also."
Kyo kissed her on the lips and Reiko kissed back.
Lady Danielle: It was short I know but that's all I have sorry but I promise it will get better.
