Disclaimer: This fanfiction is for Ishida Yamato-san. I dedicate this to you. Yamato-san, my adored friend. I do not own any of these characters. For all the Kyo fans out there.

Note: Mattii (Yamii-chan) is Kyo's favorite cousin and the only one he speaks to. And this is through her view. She's always been close to him because... they say the panda looks up to the cat in a way. Mattii's the panda of the cursed members of the Soumas. She's only twelve turning thirteen soon.

~ Previously on Chapter One: Bead's of Rain: Kyo's Story:

       "Yamii-kun? You're here?" Tohru-san asked.

       "Yamii-chan's here?" Momiji-san repeated.

       "Hai!" Onii-san told them. "She came for a quick visit,"

       "Yamii-chan? What's wrong?" Yuki-san asked me turning to sit down next to me.

       "Iie, sona. Daijabou, daijabou," I said to him. I looked at Kyo-san. I looked out the window and noticed it was raining. "Kyo-kun?" Kyo went upstairs. I ran after him.

       I tried to find Kyo-san. He was just laying on the floor, staring out the window. "Kyo-kun? Daijabou desu ka?"

       "NO I'M NOT!" He yelled and turned around. He bent over looking stressed. He almost fell over!

       "Did you make these?" He asked me.

       "Doo sitte iru?" I asked puzzled.

       Kyo pointed at the Chinese Zodiac animals with an orange cat, purple panda, light brown wolf and a black elephant. ~

       "Why are you here?" Kyo-san asked.

       "Wa-wata-watashi ikitai anata gen-genki da miru desu. Wa-watashi shinpai desu," I said to him.

       "You don't have to worry! I'll be fine," He screamed.

       "H-hai! Ea. Ano... Suimin o toru anata desu," I said happily, taking Kyo's blanket and covering him slowly. I heard a conversation downstairs. I heard the conversation...

!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!

       "Where's Kyo-kun?" Kagura-san asked.

       "Nikai," Onii-san said.

       "Is it often that Yamii-kun is the only who Kyo-kun opens up to?" Tohru-san asked.

       "Hai, ever since she was young, she could talk to him, whenever she was sad Kyo-kun was the only one to cheer her up," Onii-san said sadly smiling.

       "Doushite?" Tohru asked as her eyes widened.

       "Because, he's the cat. Since his mother's demise, Yamii-chan and Kazuma-sensai always comforted him. Yamii-chan's mother asked if Kazuma-sensai could train her. She mastered martial arts two years ago..." Yuki explained.

       "Why's that?" Tohru-san pondered.

       "When Kyo's mother passed away, Kazuma-sensai took him in. Yamii-chan wasn't even. She just watched us train. When she was one and a half she was finally trained. One day Kyo was just sitting in a corner, sulking. Kagura and Yuki were talking. Then Mizuii and me came over too. Yamii-chan was walking toward Kyo. We all watched her. I bet Kyo was wondering about his mother's death, he never wants to be bugged during that time. She could tell something was wrong. More wrong than ever. All she did was lean against Kyo. He was all shaken up. She said to him,

        "Watatachi wa ikiru hodo ni, nakushite'ku sukoshi zutsu. Itsuwari ya uso wo matoi, tachisukumu koe mo naku. Aoi aoi sora no iro mo kidutsukanai mama, sugite yuku mainichiga kawatte yuku. Toki no rizumu mo shireba mo ichido toberu darou. Watatachi wa samayoi nagara ikite yuku doko made mo. Shinjite'ru, hikari motome, arukidasu kimi to ima..." Kyo froze at the last thing she said.

       Then she said, "Don't forget, you're not alone. The pain of tears shed. For someone held dear pierces the earth and drenches the land. I want to end this sorrow! So never give up, keep trying your hardest." She got up and left to talk to Kazuma-sensai," Hatsuharu-san explained.

        "That's what softened his heart?" Tohru-san asked.

       "What she said that day, changed him," Yuki-san said.

^_^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^_^

Momiji: There's a lot of Japanese in this chapter! Yamii-chan, especially.

Tohru: Hai.

Yuki: Let's start translations. 'Wa-wata-watashi ikitai anata gen-genki da miru desu. Wa-watashi shinpai desu' I wanted to see if you were okay. I was worried. 'H-hai! Ea. Ano... Suimin o toru anata desu' Right! Eh? Uh. Then you just rest up.

Kagura: 'Nikai'- Upstairs. 'Kazuma-sensai'- teacher Kazuma.

Shigure: Yeah! Leave me with my little sister's long paragraph!
 

Kyo: Just say it!

Shigure: Fine! 'Watatachi wa ikiru hodo ni, nakushite'ku sukoshi zutsu. Itsuwari ya uso wo matoi, tachisukumu koe mo naku. Aoi aoi sora no iro mo kidtsukanai mama, sugite yuku mainichiga kawatte yuku. Toki no rizumu mo shireba mo ichido toberu darou. Watatachi wa samayoi nagara ikite yuku doko made mo. Shinjite'ru, hikari motome, arukidasu kimi to ima' Is... As we live on we lose a little bit more. Shrouded in falsehoods and lies we stand frozen to the spot, unable to cry out. Days pass and change, without us even realizing how blue he sky is. We live our lives wondering to the ends of the earth. Closing off the way back, we walk on for eternity. We live our lives standing frozen to the spot unable to cry out for eternity...'

Momiji and Tohru: Bye By~e!
