A/N: Okay, for those of you that I've completely succeeded in confusing, I hope this and the next chapter help you understand the true MEANING of the fic. See, my dreams are deranged enough as is, I really shouldn't be toying with a fic that has already been played out. . . sorry. . . I understood it perfectly well because it was MY dream and based on what I knew. . . I forgot that I'm not normal like most of you reviewers, so. . . I'll try to do better! Promise! P.S. I fixed the previous chapters and corrected some crappy mistakes. . . if you even CARE. So. . . I'll see what else I can do to this thingy. . . ^_^;

"Haru? We should go. I feel something dangerous coming. . . c'mon."
"I'm not going, god damn it!" Hatsuharu roared, freeing himself from the other boy's grip and climbing to his feet. "I don't want to live anymore, don't you GET it?! I DON'T CARE!"
"Knock it off!" his face was struck as fast as lightning. Kyou stood on the other end, ready to deliver another blow. His fists and teeth clenched, his eyes ablaze with the raging fire of his spiteful spirit rising up inside of him, plainly showing Haru his intolerance for such selfishness. "It's bad enough I already had ONE person, important to my life, die because she didn't want to live with the conditions she was under. And. . . I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU DO THE SAME!!!!!!" he roared, lunging for Hatsuharu and wrestling him to the ground.
Before the snow-haired teenager could begin to fight back, Kyou pinned each of the boy's limbs down.
"You LISTEN to me; and you listen to me GOOD." He ordered, hiding his tear- filled eyes with his sopping wet hair. "I don't know why the hell I even CARE that you wanna die. But, I won't let you do it. Not while you still have people to live for that love you and are worrying about you right now. Okay?!" He sniffled quietly, still not moving to let Hatsuharu get up. "What about Kisa, damn it?! She'd be heartbroken. And Yuki?! He'd be crushed!"
*Yu-ki. . . !*
"Listen, I don't know what the hell your problem is, but it's getting on my nerves and it's GOTTA stop. You hear me?!"
"Yu. . . ki. . . " he whimpered without even realizing he did so.
"Yuki? Is that why. . . ?"
"He hates me. . . "
"Why?"
"I. . . I wanted to help her. . . but. . . "
"Haru?"
"But I hurt her feelings. . . he hates me. . . "
"Haru? Haru, snap out of it!"
"Kyou. . . I. . . I wanna go home. . . "
++++++++++
Cold, tired, soaked and covered in mud, the two boys walked to the front entryway of the house. Kyou slid open the front door, finding the house dark.
"It seems. . . nobody's home. . . ?" Hatsuharu sighed, sliding behind Kyou to enter, not bothering to remove his shoes as he sauntered to the living room. The TV was still on, a red screen flashing: 'HURRICANE WARNING' in big bold letters, showing a blinking radar screen nearly engulfed in a gray/purple cloud.
"Kyou. . . " he said plainly, pointing to the television.
The cat hobbled over to the other boy, still pretty weak from the run back. He gasped and froze at the same time, mentally locating the house on the map and seeing the cloud swarming over it.
"We. . . need to get to a basement. . . "
"This house doesn't have a basement. The closest to something like that is at the main house. . . we'll never make it in time. . . " Kyou growled, shaking his head as he felt his whole body beginning to tremble with fear. Haru's was already in a partial seizure as well.
The two couldn't help but stare out the windows.
"It's getting really dark. . . and the wind's kicking up. . . "
"I'll get us some flashlights. Haru, grab the two heaviest coats you can find in the closet and wait for me by the stairs."
"What're ya gonna do?"
"We got no CHANCE of reaching the main house, so we'll go to the next best place..."
"Kyou. . . I. . . I can't. . . "
"YOU WILL! Just do it! You're life is a HELL of a lot more IMPORTANT than how stupid you feel!" he called as he darted out of the room.
*C'mon you baka. This is no time to chicken out. Face your fear and get over it!*

"Kyou-kun. . . Haru. . . " Tohru murmured, curling up in a corner close to Saki and Uotani.
So far so good. . . Akito didn't see or hear either of the non-family members. . . YET.
"They'll be fine. It's okay." Yuki gave a fake smile of reassurance to her, handing her a blanket.
