"What's this? Kyo! Tohru hasn't even been dead for a year and you're already coming home with other women?!" Shigure cried in shock, as Kyo walked in, carrying a girl in his arms.
"Baka inu, shutup!" Kyo growled as he laid the unconscious girl on the couch. Shigure walked over and looked at her.
"So who is she?" he asked softly, as not to wake her. Kyo stared at her, resting his chin on his hands.
"I don't know."
"Aa, soodesuka...what happened?"
"She bumped into me and then walked into the street and a truck...almost like Tohru..."
"Are? She bumped into you?"
"Hai..."
"How could you save her if you changed?"
"That's just it, I didn't change."
"NANI?!"
"I didn't change Shigure! And it can't be just me, we'll see when she wakes up..."
"Hmm...I suppose I'll have to tell Akito about this—"
"Iie! Not yet!"
Kyo's fiercness startled Shigure and he looked at his younger cousin thoughtfully.
"Just what are you thinking, ne?" he questioned, looking back down at the girl. Kyo slowly reached out and wiped some dirt off of her cheek gently.
"I don't know yet...maybe she's the answer to the curse...and I don't want Akito to find out just yet," he said quietly. Shigure nodded.
"Hai, wakarimasu," he replied in an understanding voice. "I'll go order dinner for the three of us."
"Nani? What about the stupid rat?" Kyo looked up in confusion. Shigure's expression grew dark.
"He's been hurting himself and is now in the main house under Ha'ri's care...."
"Baka..."
"Hai...Well, I'll go call the food place." Shigure said abruptly, going into the kitchen and leaving Kyo alone with the girl. The young neko sighed frustratedly and closed his eyes.
(She's not Tohru...I have to remember that...)
--------------------
Sometime later, the girl awoke to darkness and found herself in a darkened room. She sat up slowly and looked around, suddenly realizing she was in a bed. She quickly shot her gaze down and found herself in a soft pink kimono. Her eyes widened in horror and she let out an earsplitting shriek. Kyo and Shigure shot up out of bed and ran into the bedroom.
"What's wrong are you okay?!" Shigure cried.
"Why'd ya scream damnit!?" Kyo cursed. The girl looked at them and screamed again. Shigure flinched and Kyo covered his ears.
"Will ya stop it already?!" he screeched. The girl stopped and curled up against the wall, shaking.
"Why am I here?!" she demanded tearfully. "W-What do you want?"
"Calm down," Shigure said in a soothing voice. "Kyo here saved you from getting hit by a semi."
The girl looked at them warily, "He...did?"
"Hai, and you were unconscious so he brought you here to my home. By the way, are you in high school at a—"
"YOU PERVERT! STOP THAT!" Kyo roared, as he smacked Shigure in the side of the head. Shigure whined and left the room. The girl blinked.
"Are..."
"Sorry about that, just ignore him," Kyo said gruffly, glaring almost. The girl nodded slowly.
"You really saved me?" she asked softly, her stormy eyes showing deep gratitude. Kyo flushed and looked away, jamming his hands in his pockets.
"Hai..." he muttered. The girl nodded and smiled a tiny bit.
"Domo arigatou gozaimasu."
"Do itashimashite..."
An awkward silence passed over the two before the girl cleared her throat.
"My name is Yumegari Sakura..." she introduced herself formally. Kyo looked at her and then looked away, replying curtly, "Sohma Kyo. That was my older cousin Sohma Shigure."
Sakura nodded and started to speak but her stomach interrupted with a loud growl. She blushed brightly and Kyo stared at her before laughing.
"Nani!? Why are you laughing Sohma-kun!" Sakura cried in heated embarrassment. Kyo snickered.
"Hungry much?"
"H-Hai...I haven't eaten in a few days..."
"NANI!? Doshite!?"
Sakura bit her lip and looked down. Kyo looked at her incredulously, before going over and putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Doshite?" he repeated gently. Sakura squeezed her eyes shut.
"I-I just got into Japan...from China by boat...I have no money, only the clothes I wear..." she whispered shamefully. Kyo looked at her in surprise.
"Why did you leave?" he asked. Sakura shut her eyes.
"I was married...it was an arranged marriage, but I was in love with him...his name was Sakaki Hiro. He was having an affair with a woman from his work, he said he loved her and that I was nothing but a clingy little...a clingy little whore. So I divorced him and got away from China as soon as I could...I couldn't stand being in that country any longer. I had to get away. So I took what money I had left and took the first boat here to Japan. And now...I'm here."
Kyo stared at Sakura in a mixture of shock, anger, and sadness at what she'd told him. She just kept looking down, her sweet scent was laced with tears and Kyo just stood there, thinking of something he do to comfort her in any possible way.
"Aa, so she's awake. Are you hungry little one?" Shigure's voice broke the silence causing both young adults to look up.
"H-Hai Sohma-san..." she stammered cutely. Shigure clasped his hands together.
"Kawaii ne...I'm Shigure, you probably already know Kyo. What's your name?" he asked cutely. Kyo rolled his eyes and started upstairs to his room.
"Sakura..." she said softly. Shigure smiled at her and took her hand.
"Let's get you some food." He chirped, leading her into the kitchen. Sakura nodded and walked with him to eat.
