Too late
Kyou stopped as he looked at the happiness glowing from her face, Tohru was humming something and at certain times, she would suddenly let out a giggle to herself for no particular reason to laugh about. Huh? Funny woman…all women all weird…Kyou thought as his crimson eyes looked Tohru over. Tohru was dressed in a yellow shirt with a white skirt, like she was planning to go out or something. She had even tied up her hair, first time too…wonder if she made plans with her two close friends, Uo and Hana. Gradually, his eyes wandered to her hands and narrowed. She was wearing the ring…OH GOD! Why am I feeling so light…like I am flying to the stars? But…I cannot…I don't love her…well…she better take out the ring…Grrrr…
Kyou went up behind her, grabbed her hand roughly and pulled out the ring. Tohru was shocked, "Kyou! Why did you do that! I…my ring…" Kyou gave out a growl and yelled. "I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU GOT THIS RING BUT…BUT…YOU CAN'T WEAR IT…I WON'T ALLOW YOU!" Tohru flinched back in hurt, tears now streaming down her face. Kyou stride away, thinking with sadness and guiltiness, when the time has come, I'll let you wear it but…now…it is better that you hate me rather then love me…besides…I've no memories of you…except a few…
Tohru slide down to the floor, head buried in her hands, tears fell like crystals that was finally broken when it touched the floor…Kyou…I love you…why not you? Tohru continued crying and while doing that…she was unaware of the danger approaching her soon…
Kyou went out of the house and walked on and on, following the path that would lead him to the park. Am I too harsh on her? Did I make a terrible mistake? Maybe I should turn back and...and…what the HEC…Kyou stopped as four men, all masked, with two holding knives, began surrounding him. Tohru! Kyou felt something was terribly wrong…He turned, observing the four men. Then…they attacked. Kyou ducked, as a knife went flying past the place where his head was a second ago. He punched one guy in the stomach and another, at the groin. Both went down. Kyou felt the blood rushing to his head as he whirled to face the remaining two. But he was a little slow, pain shot up his arm as he was stabbed by one of the remaining men. Ugh…Tohru…must protect her. Kyou forced away the piercing pain, pulled out the knife and threw it at one of them. The knife buried itself into the throat of the unfortunate man. The man's eyes widened in shock and wordlessly, he fell to the floor and died. The scene of that man dying brought up the same memories with Akito's brother. Kyou tried to focus but was weakening as his last opponent was so strong, always dodging his punches and returning him back some of his own. Concentrate, Tohru needs you! Kyou dodged another punch and then he remembered, Tohru whispering in his ears… "Kyou, it's not your fault, you know…it was your duty…" Kyou snapped up his head, ready to bring this man down. He will protect Tohru at any cost…I …I think I really love her now…I DO! The man aimed a kick at Kyou. Kyou jumped, rolled and picked up the knife on the floor. The man lunged forward towards him and a silver flash was seen. Another minute later, the man was lying on the ground, grabbing his left shoulder which was bleeding. He glared at Kyou as Kyou slowly approached him. Kyou held the bloody knife to the man's throat, "Why are you here? Answer me! Or you'll die." The man spat at Kyou and eyes gleaming with victory, he laughed and said, "Your woman is going to die, say goodbye to your memories, you'll never have her back." Kyou felt anger burst out from him, I have to get to her now! Kyou then used the knife's handle and hit it hard on the man's head. The man finally collapsed, unconscious. Kyou ran back to his house, panic seizing him with his step he took, Tohru…be safe…please! Don't make me be too late…
