A/N: All righty then. . . that was too cute. . . CAN I PUKE NOW?! Actually, if you think this thing is coming to a close, you're SOOOOOOOOOO wrong-o!

"Oh thank the lord! It's over!" Shigure stretched, yawning and looking around as the others came out from hiding underground.
"Thank the lord for WHAT?! Look at this place! There's. . . NOTHING left!" Ayame let go of Momiji's hand and sauntered closer to what used to be the center of the main house. Everything was destroyed.
"It's all. . . gone. . . " Tohru stared in awe at the wreckage, suddenly filling with a sudden jolt of pain in her heart.
Yuki and Shigure seemed to feel the same pain at that moment as well.
"THE BOYS!" they gasped together, Yuki and Tohru taking off like lightning.
As she ran, thoughts of finding them raced through her mind, flashing briefly as if it were really happening, in front of her eyes.
Finding them alive . . . both soaked and shivering somewhere safe.
On the other hand . . . what would happen if . . . they found them . . .?
NO!
She couldn't think like that.
Not until the two were found.
Alive . . .
Or . . . dead . . .

"HARU?!"
"KYOU?!"
"KYOU! HARU!" the two screamed as they ran, searching frantically with their eyes for at least one of them.
The two stopped suddenly, coming to the site where their small house used to stand.
"Miss Honda." Yuki whispered plainly, moving toward a mound of something. She couldn't see with the glare in her eyes. Covering out the glare, she gasped, eyes widening at seeing the mound's true form.
"Oh GOD! Are they-?" she yelped, feeling tears of either fear or relief, coming forth and falling down her cheeks as she leapt over the debris to Yuki.
The Juunishi sighed with relief, holding his hand over his heart and smiling.
"No. No, they're okay. They're . . . okay . . . " he felt as though he'd burst into tears right there, but refused to do so in front of others.
"Kyou-kun . . . Haru-kun . . . "she smiled, collapsing to her knees and reaching for Kyou, resting a hand on his shoulder.
"See? I told you they'd be fine." Shigure's voice interrupted. The two turned to see the rest of the family standing on the edge of the wreckage.
"Good thing you were right. I'm glad." Kazuma sighed, making his way through the destruction to the two boys.

Both of them lay still, silent, barely breathing. He knelt down and took Hatsuharu's hand into his own, gently lifting the boy's arm off of the neko, and scooping Kyou's body into his arms, holding him tightly.
Yuki began to reach for the other one, only to suddenly freeze as Haru's eyes opened wide in panic as he tried to move away.
"Haru. Haru. It's okay. I won't hurt you." He felt somewhat hurt, not understanding or knowing what to do.
"Leave me alone. I'm fine." The oushi growled, lifting himself to one knee, only to collapse again. Yuki attempted to reach out to him again, outstretching a hand to him. Hatsuharu felt tears swelling up now, causing him to slap away the offer.
"Haru? What's wrong?! Please! I only wanna help you!"
"Just. . . leave me alone." He whispered, picking himself off of the small heap of wood, he'd been on. Buckling his knees and grasping his throbbing hip, he sauntered away toward where a few trees still stood.
Away from the group.
Wishing that he were walking away to his death.
