"Talone, I got some clothes you can wear than that uniform. Would you like to wear them?" Ayame grinned and giggled. Talone got off the rock. "I guess....." Ayame and Talone walked together under a ruffled pink umbrella. "Talone, I think I was able to find you a job and shelter." Talone looked up at Ayame to see if he was up to one his tricks. "Are..you serious?" Ayame nodded and Talone smiled slowly. "Thank you!" Talone hugged Ayame.

Tohru sat on the chair thinking to herself. "Poor Talone. I wish I knew where she was..." Tohru just sat there 'til Yuki came in. He had and funny looked on his face. "Tohru, I just heard Akito found his housekeeper already and she's on her way." Tohru didn't move an inch nor said anything while Yuki just stared at her. "What's wrong?" Tohru looked up at Yuki and opened her mouth but nothing came out. She closed it again. "I guess, You feel bad for Talone?"
Tohru stood up. "I feel really bad! She didn't have any real friends and I was the first to know!" Tohru was walking closer to Yuki but tripped on the rug and fell on him.
*POOF!!!*
Tohru looked up and gasped. "I am soooo sorry Yuki! I didn't mean to!" Yuki wasn't able to hear Tohru's apology cuz he was unconscious. Then Shigure came in with a smile on his face. "Guess what? My birthday is coming up REAL soon! And I'm inviting all the Sohmas!!! Even people who work for the Sohmas!" Tohru and Yuki weren't paying attention so Shigure said it again. But then a big a crash fell in. Kyo came in and was red and huffing. "SHE'S....BACK!!!" Kagura rampaged through the house trying to catch Kyo.

Talone entered the main house and Ayame was with her. "I'll be right back!" Ayame left Talone alone and just stood there by herself. "Why am I here? I wish I was back...home." Talone fell on her knees and was ready to cry. Just then, Hatori came in and spotted Talone. "Excuse me, Are you the new house keeper?" Talone looked up and saw Hatori, She didn't say a word. No later, Ayame came in and had a smile on his face. "Akito would like to see you!" Talone eyes widen. "Who's Akito?" Ayame laughed and Hatori rolled his eyes and explained instead. "Akito is the is the head of the Sohma Family." Talone gasped and thought, "Sohma family? Yuki? Kyo? Does Tohru know this?" Talone got up and walked carefully toward the door. "Here?" Ayame and Hatori nodded.
Talone knocked and waited for a reply. "Come in." A faint soft voice was heard from the other side. Talone walked in and saw Akito. "Are you..Akito?" A bird was on Akito's finger and chirping. "Yes, And you are, Talone Misa?" Talone nodded and looked at the room. Akito grinned and walked slowly toward her. "Are you aware that you are going to become my house keeper?" Talone slowly backed away and was confused. "A house keeper? For you?" Akito laughed softly. Talone tried to breathe but she felt like she was going to suffocate.
Akito and Talone sat together by the window and drank tea. "Talone, have to set a few rules with you. Don't be a fool and don't be a klutz. Don't go in other rooms without my permissions or the owner's permission. And, Don't snoop around other places." Talone felt a awkward feeling and felt the cold presence of Hatori coming in. "Akito, Yuki and the other's are here." Akito glared and Hatori and stood up. "Follow me Talone." Said Hatori. Akito came and was facing Yuki and the others. "Who did you hire?" Yuki gentled smile was turned into a cold and angry frown. Akito and Hatori moved out of Talone's way and saw Yuki. Yuki's face was puzzled and he just looked at her. Tohru and Kyo just mouth's just gaped and Kagura, Shigure, and Hatsuharu frowned. "This isn't right." Hatsuharu said. Talone head tilted down and she ran out of the house but Shigure's was there and grabbed her wrist. "Let go of me! You have no right to touch me!" Shigure let go carefully and stand there. Akito walked toward Talone and put his hand on her head. "You start tomorrow."

Talone walked around aimlessly. "I feel like a fool. I wish I didn't become a Sohma housekeeper." Talone went in her new room looking at it. "It's so plain." All she saw was a painting, a bed, and a dresser. "At least I have enough money for me to buy a set of clothes and alittle food." Talone walked in and sat on her bed. She looked at the ceiling and started humming to herself. Hatori knocked on her door and opened it alittle. "Just so you know, Shigure Sohma is having is birthday party soon. You may want to talk about that with Akito to see if your aloud to go." Talone didn't say anything.
Hatori walked out and went to his studies. "What's..going to happen?" Hatori felt a sting on his left eye. He almost fell to his knees but remained standing.

Saturday morning, Talone was up and ready cleaning the house. Hatori was kind enough to give her some of the old Sohma's clothes. She was wearing and red blouse and a black satin skirt. "It's really dusty in this part of the cabinet." Talone continued cleaning 'til Akito appeared. "I see your already cleaning. Very good." Talone blushed. She put the duster down and spoke, "Master uh..Sohma..Akito, I was wondering." Akito glared at Talone and list his eyebrows. "Hmm?" Talone put her head and started sweating. "I was wondering if I'm going to be at Yuki-kun's cousin's birthday and Well..." Akito grinned widely and walked up to Talone. "Of course. But, you must clean this house perfectly." Talone nodded and replied, "Yes, sir."
She went back to dusting and left Akito alone. Akito walked away and went outside. He stared at the natural scenery grinned. "It's very beau-*cough* It's very-*cough again*" Akito fell down and didn't get back up. Talone called out Akito's name and looked outside and saw him lying on the ground. "No!" She ran toward him and lift his head. "He's running a fever. Hatori did say if he's running a fever, I should give him the medicine he keeps in his study room!"
Talone picked up Akito carefully and put him back in his room. "I'll be right back! Don't go any where!" All she heard was a soft moan, she went out to Hatori's room and got out the medicine. "Ummm...This one!" She went back to Akito room. "Here! Take thi-!" Talone tripped and fell on top of Akito.
*POOF!*
Talone waited till all the smoke disappear and saw a feathered creature. "Oh..nooo! A..A r-rooster?!" Talone stared at Akito's other form and panicked. "Oh nooo! Now what do I do?!" Talone picked up the rooster and went out to find a phone. But without luck, she sighed and relized she should find Yuki. "He's a Sohma. He knows Akito more than me maybe!" Talone put on her shoes and(still carrying the rooster) went outside.
Talone stopped and spoke, "Where does Yuki Sohma live?"
