Ch 1. Just for the Stories.
"and Kyou Sohma took his sword and cut off Captain Akito's hand! Feeding it to the crocodile below." Tohru smiled as she acted it all out with her brother, Shigure, while her youngest brother, Yuki watched. Tohru smiled as Yuki and Shigure clapped, and she took a bow.
"Tohru, that was great!" Yuki said happily.
"You should definitely consider writing when you grow up!" Shigure added.
"What's this, what's this? Talk of my daughter writing? I won't have it. Novelists are not held in high regards. I won't hear of it." Mr. Honda said as he came into the room with his darling wife. He looked at Tohru as she looked down and walked further into the room. "Tohru, dear, I think it's time we moved you from the nursery. You're becoming a young woman, you're already 13 and you shouldn't have to stay in the same room as your brother's anymore."
Tohru looked at her father, shock written upon her face, "Father! I can't! I just can't! The nursery is-"
"You will, tomorrow night." Her father cut her off. He looked at all of his children then stood straight, "We're going to a party tonight, I expect you to be in bed by the time we get home."
Tohru looked down "yes father.."
Later that night, they had cleaned up the nursery, Tohru had cried and Yuki and Shigure tried to comfort her. Finally, they all gave up and decided it would be wise to go to bed. They turned off the lamps, and crawled into bed, but not before locking the window.
Tohru sighed, wishing she could just somehow fly away from here.
Kyou floated up to the window silently, looking in. "Aw man, I missed the story!" he whispered to himself. His best friend, that small little cat, mewed by his ear. "Shh" he whispered to him as the window opened. Kyou floated inside, flying over Shigure and Yuki's beds, and coming upon Tohru's. Maybe I should wake her up…Maybe she can finish the story just for me. He shook his head and began to pull away but his foot caught the bedpost and he tumbled backwards into building blocks.
Tohru's eyes opened quickly and she sat up, starring at the boy lying on the floor. "Hello Boy…"
Kyou looked up at her quickly. I woke her up…She's seen me…"Hello."
"What are you doing there on the floor?" She asked him as he stood up quickly. "And why are you here..?"
He smirked and crossed his arms. "I come for the stories." He told her simply.
She game him a questioning look. "My stories? You listen to my stories?"
The smirk didn't leave his face "Well of course I do. They're all about me after all."
Her eyes widened "Are you--Could you be-"
"Kyou Sohma." His smile, if possible, grew even more.
"and Kyou Sohma took his sword and cut off Captain Akito's hand! Feeding it to the crocodile below." Tohru smiled as she acted it all out with her brother, Shigure, while her youngest brother, Yuki watched. Tohru smiled as Yuki and Shigure clapped, and she took a bow.
