Kaiya woke up to someone knocking on her door. She had to be at a store for
CD signings in a few hours. Her manager came in and parted the curtains of
the hotel room. "Come on Kaiya, we cant be late for this. And don't forget
you have a photo shoot after this."
"Yes, yes I remember. So who's this 'star' photographer I've been hearing about?"
"Well, he came to Tokyo a year ago, but not much is known about him. There was an article about him before he came to Tokyo. I'll try to dig it up." And with that he left.
"Was a name asking to much?" Kaiya said to the empty room and got dressed. She went to her closet and pulled out a black shirt that had the words 'bite me' on the front and a pair of black cargo pants. She had grown out her hair and it was now just a little above her elbows and decided to put a bandana in it. She still had her necklace on that kept her from transforming into her cursed form. Even though the curse was lifted, she didn't want to risk taking it off. Thinking of her cursed form made her suddenly think of a certain orange cat. She shook her head violently, 'no, your over him. Stop thinking about him, he made you like this.' She looked down at her wrists where she was met with her fading scars. She still had the scars on her face that she got from Shin all those years ago. But those scars were nearly gone and were easily covered by make up. 'But some scars, you cant hide from.' A voice in the back of Kaiyas mind told her. "Shut up! Leave me the hell alone! Why cant I just forget you." Kaiya cried, the tears soaking the hands she held to her face.
And hour later she arrived at the CD store and sat down behind a desk. Outside she could hear all of her fans waiting to come in. She was told that the line went around for quite a few blocks. "This is gonna take a while'
The doors opened and everyone came streaming into the store. They all crowded around the desk holding up CDs and waving them in front of her face. She signed as many as she could quickly while trying to half talk with some of the people. She looked up and at the door saw someone whom she didn't want to meet. 'A Sohma.' She motioned to her manager and told him she wanted to leave. He looked at his watch and agreed. They had been there for quite some time and the line was diminishing. Kaiya stood up and followed her manager out.
Yuki and Tohru stood by the door of the store watching Kaiya leave. They knew she had seen them. "Maybe it was a bad idea coming here" Tohru said sadly. Yuki sighed "Well I guess we're just going to have to set up a meeting with her or something." "Yuki you don't have to do this." "Yes I do, you said you wanted Kaiya to sing for our wedding, and I am going to make sure you get everything you want." "You spoil me to much Yuki." "Its my choice to spoil the one I love." Tohru blushed and took Yuki's hand as they walked around the city exploring it and looking for a certain photo studio.

Kaiya sat in the limo in silence. She didn't feel like talking. Seeing Yuki and Tohru there was too much for her. Why was she suddenly thinking about her past so much? She had been fine till her manager told her about the photo shoot. Something in her dreaded that shoot. 'Why is my past coming back for me? I swore to myself I would leave it all behind.' It had been at least two or three years since she left, why was all this suddenly coming back.
"Kaiya." A voice tore her away from her thoughts. "We're here" Kaiya nodded and followed him out of the limo. She got a strange feeling as she stepped into the building, and she didn't like it.
A woman came towards them with a rack of clothes and ushered Kaiya to a fitting room. The lady handed her a dark navy blue silk strapless dress with slits in the sides that went half way up her thigh. It fit perfectly, complementing her figure. She was given white gloves and a silver shocker. She was asked to take off the necklace that kept her from possibly transforming but she declined. Her necklace was silver anyways and she decided that it would fit with the dress fine. She was given high heels to go with them and as soon as she put them on she was ushered out to the photo studio. She was told she was going to be doing a shoot to show off the 'latest design' of some famous fashion designer who's name she chose not to remember. Kaiya was reluctant to wear the design but gave in after a long tedious fight with her manager. He had said, "Sir Ayames designs are all the rage with the major celebrities." He went on saying something about how it would boost her carrier or something but from the moment she said yes she immediately regretted it.
As she stepped into the photo studio, she immediately tensed and knew where her regret in saying yes came from. Before her stood a man, all grown up now, with orange hair and red eyes just like she remembered from her dreams. From somewhere in her there was a longing to be back in his arms, but a different emotion rose stronger in her. Hate and rage.

Kyo watched as she glared daggers at him. When she had first walked in, she had the same smile he remembered. His eyes fell on her perfect pink lips and wanted so much to go up to her and claim them with his own. That was when she saw him and glared at him. He could have sworn that for a split second he saw compassion and longing in her eyes, but it couldn't have been from the way she was glaring at him now with such hatred.
The set director stationed Kaiya in front of a pale blue backdrop and turned on a fan to a light breeze. Someone soon came up and started putting cherry blossom petals in front of it so that the petals swirled all around her. Music started and Kaiya was soon under the control of the photographer. Kyo. He told her to do all different kinds of poses, which she did mechanically. None of them looked natural. Kyo sighed and changed the music. He put in one of her CDs and played her song 'Lost'. He could see Kaiya swaying to the music, closing her eyes and feeling the meaning behind the words. She turned her back towards the fan letting it blow her long hair past her face; she clasped her hands together near her chest and put her head down, a single lost tear rolling down it. Kyo felt his heart melt and quickly took a few pictures.
He took a few more pictures of her in happier, less depressing poses that he would probably end up using for the magazine they were going to put it in.
Kaiya went back to the changing room to take pictures that would be in her next CD she was releasing. Her favorite pose she ended up doing was when she was back in her outfit she had worn that morning and was leaning against a 'brick wall' glaring at the camera, or rather the person behind the camera. She had her manager ask the set director for a copy of the picture of her that they took during the publicity shot. The one where she looked more depressed (the one I described in detail) and he said yes.
After the shoot, Kyo saw her glaring at him. She was still wearing the shirt from the last shot they did, the shirt that said 'bite me'. It went with her angry glare but Kyo couldn't help but smile. "Hey Kaiya, its been a while." Kyo paused for a second, thinking about what he should say. "Look Kai-" Kyo started coming towards her and she took a step back.
"Don't come near me Kyo. STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME! Please.Just leave me ALONE!" Kaiya yelled, crying as she fled from the studio.
'Why can't I escape my past?' Kyo and Kaiya thought simultaneously.
