I don't own Fruits Basket or any of the Characters within this story, even the ones I made up.
Special thanks goes to all the previously uploaded fanfics online that gave me the idea to write this fanfic myself.
Note: This has Kyouru as the main pairing, but is relatively Yuki oriented and has minimal Kyouru Moments. Sorry to disappoint.
Further Note: All Names are in Japanese Order and no Middle Names. So the Name order will always be: [Family Name] [Given Name]. Also, no Maiden Names will be given.

Chapter 3: Concern
A Black Mercedes drove up the side road towards Shigure's House. Three very concerned Juunishi onboard. Never before had such a thing as this occurred in any of the Three Juunishi's lifetime. Yuki for once was acting very strangely. Momiji and Hatsuharu had run up to Hatori and explained their encounter with what appeared to be a very different Yuki. They couldn't understand why he would treat them so differently now. Sure, they had seen him depressed and had not seen him come to school for a little over a week. But to see him changed so was just unnerving.
Hatori had agreed that the root lay at Shigure's and thus the three had driven off leaving anyone who looked for them a message. Their ride was very uneventful and painfully silent. Each one had their thoughts and theories. Each one eventually had a more or less good idea of what had happened. And each one was not too far from the truth.
They entered the House to see its owner gone to Ayame's; Kyou was up on the roof and Tohru busy with cleaning. As usual, the occupants had forgotten to lock the front door.
"Hello?" Hatori shouted and the Vacuum Cleaner stopped.
Tohru came running down and appeared to be in the middle of Cleaning. She seemed panicky for she had thought that Yuki had come home already. And she immediately relaxed upon seeing Hatori, Momiji and Hatsuharu.
"Hello, Hatori-san, Momiji-kun, Hatsuharu-san, what can I do for you?"
The three Juunishi looked serious and this brought a heavy blanket over their meeting.
"Gather everyone in the house. We need to talk."
"A, Hai!" Tohru in a whirlwind ran up stairs and soon had Kyou on her heels. His cheek had a bruise.
"Kyou, I better check on that later. Well, anyways, we all need to talk, where is Shigure?"
The Two Hosts looked at each other and they told them.
"He is at Ayame's, but come in anyways. What's up?"
The Five of them walked up to the Living room, where Tohru served them all tea. Something that she whipped up in a hurry, yet still tasted good.
For a few minutes, the five sat there in a strained silence, and finally, Hatori spoke.
"Hatsuharu and Momiji has told me they had met Yuki, they both saw that he had changed for the worse and had even kicked Hatsuharu off his feet. Thinking this as not himself, we had decided that the root lay somewhere in this household. Now, What can you tell me of his conditions of late?"
Tohru lowered her head in shame and Kyou looked worried for her. Should they say? They better. Things had gotten out of hand lately and unlike Kyou, Yuki was unstoppable with his Martial Arts practice, and Kazuma, the only one able to beat the Mouse had no say in this matter.
"That Kuso-Nezumi had gone into depression after I told him that Tohru and I were going out. His room had begun to reek like Akito's and we couldn't stand to go near his room anymore. Save Shigure. One morning, when Shigure went up to give Yuki breakfast, Yuki marched out of his room and when I asked where he was going, he said to Akito. I tried to stop him knowing he was going to tell Akito of us, but then He gave me a Punch on the Cheek. Flung me against the wall and he marched out. He did not even acknowledge Tohru's presence and he marched off."
Hatori sighed; it was just as he had feared. In his depression something must have sparked Yuki off. But why was he not told of Yuki's depression sooner? Now, Yuki was unreachable. If the doctor had dealt with this before, Yuki might have been saved much pain and this anger would also have been avoided, if not lessened. Now, what Yuki would do in his uncontrolled anger was suspect. It would be a very vulnerable condition. Akito's words would definitely appear sound to Yuki's uncontrolled mind. It was unthinkable that Yuki would harm Tohru, but Kyou might receive a lot of the backlash if any. And any that got in his way will also be in danger, Hatsuharu's attempt to intervene by restraining Yuki ended in quite a Bruise on the Cow's side. Hatori could only pray that it would not lead to something everyone would regret later. Especially Yuki.
"Well, Tell Shigure to come to my house as soon as possible, this is a very urgent matter, you two may not come out of this unscathed. Tread very carefully. That is all I can say."
"Its my duty as Tohru's Boyfriend to make sure she is protected. Akito will not get a hand on her!" Kyou's enthusiasm was evident Yuki was not the only one to have changed with the changing relationship between the cat and the Onigiri, much to Hatori's distress.
"You forget, Kyou, if things go as badly as I fear, soon, it will be Yuki you will be pitted against and where you could not beat him with his mercy, you will definitely fail if he becomes something like Akito."
Kyou's blood froze. It had not occurred to him that Yuki would become someone like that. But Hatori was right, it was just as possible as the best-case scenario which was Yuki accepting the fact and returning to normal, unlikely, but probable none the less.
