Chapter. 6

Kyou walked over to Tohru and pulled her away from all the boys. Momiji, Aya, and Haru were talking to each other about how great Tohru was while Hiro kept complaining about her and telling them that she really wasn't all that great. Kyou overheard and threw a walnut at Hiro's forehead, then took Tohru over to a corner of the room.

"Are you ok Kyou? You seem a little flushed." Tohru looked concerned and put her hand to Kyou's forehead. He blushed.

"T-tohru, there's something I'd like to talk to you about." He looked around to make sure no one was listening. Tohru gave him a questioning look. He continued, his face bright red.

"Well, Tohru for some time now I-" Kagura pulled at his hair and he looked up at her angrily then his face relaxed, "Where you been Kagura? I went looking for you."

She sat on his shoulder and gave Tohru a small evil smile and then cuddled up against Kyou. He flicked her off, "What's going on with you today? You're acting weird." She gave him a small humph and then whispered in his ear. He listened with a blank expression before nodding. "Ok--fine." He looked to Tohru. "Tohru, Kagura says she wants to talk to you alone outside. Something about apologizing." Tohru nodded and Kagura and her went outside, Kagura leading the way. Kyou sighed, damn it, that was my chance. Kagura just had to go and ruin it! He fumed as he walked into his bedroom, walking past the lost boys, hearing them all talk about Tohru, good and bad. Kyou threw another walnut at Hiro then walked into his room.

Tohru walked outside with Kagura. The tree opened up and out they walked, into the cool night air. The moon shone beautifully above their heads and the stars twinkled like diamonds in the big blue abyss. Tohru stopped a little ways from the tree and started, "Kagura, I'm sorry if I said or did anything to make you mad at me. I really didn't mean to. I'm so sorry."

Kagura gave her a look that said "don't worry about it" then she turned to her and smiled. She snapped her fingers and Hatori walked out from the shadows of the forest surrounding them. Tohru looked at him, fear written upon her face. This did not look good. Not at all.

Kyou walked out of his bedroom. His anger level had gone from 10 to 1 (AN: haha, remember that episode??). He walked out to find none of the boys in the room. He shrugged. They must be out doing…Dunno, something involving slings and rocks or something. It was what they usually did. Maybe they were playing tag with the Indians again..? Whatever. It had been about 20 minutes since Tohru and Kagura went outside. An apology didn't take that long.

Kyou was about to walk out when he heard a tinkling behind him. He turned around and saw Kagura sitting in her little chair. He walked over to her, "Where's Tohru? In her room?" Kagura shrugged her shoulders and filed her nails. Kyou gave her a sideways glance and walked to Tohru's room. He knocked on her door. When he got no answer, he walked in and found nothing except an empty room. He walked back to the main room and looked angrily at Kagura. "Where is she?"

Kagura didn't answer.

He said it again, "Where is she!"

She looked up at him then smirked and whispered in his ear, "…Akito."

He pulled away from her quickly, "What!"

She smiled and shrugged.

He looked at her astonished, "You never apologized, did you…? Instead you got rid of her…"

She smiled at him.

He shook his head at her and then picked her up and threw her out. "You are my friend no more! I can't take your jealously Kagura! I won't! and you…you GAVE her to Akito! You just handed her over! And in the worst possible way, right under my nose! I hate you! I HATE you!!"

He looked down at her, his red eyes full of unconcern for the sobbing fairy. This wasn't how it was supposed to be. Kyou was supposed to be thankful that Tohru was gone. He was supposed to love her for getting rid of that stupid annoying girl. Instead she sat here lying on the cold floor with his cold angry eyes starring down at her. She stood up quickly and tried to stop shedding more tears as she flew away.

Kyou shook his head and then grabbed his dagger from the table. He would save her. He promised Tohru he would never let anything happed to her and damn it! He was going to keep his promise for the girl he loved!

He quickly shot out of the underground hiding place and flew towards The Jolly Rodger fast. Tohru was his, not Akito's. His.

He landed softly on a mast post, watching down below. Tohru was tied up against a pole, standing. Akito had apparently taken a great interest in her too. He gripped his dagger hard as he saw Akito's fingers touch her delicate soft skin. He would not lay a finger on her! He wouldn't!! He let his anger get the best of him as he saw Akito lean forward to plant his lips upon Tohru's. He leaped down and landed hard behind Akito, causing his to divert and look behind him. A smug smile came across his face, "Kyou. How nice of you to join us. We've been waiting."
