A/N: I'm sorry about the jumpy POV, it's just hard for me to keep in one POV throughout the entire chapter. Gomen, but I'll try to make one person's POV longer.

Chapter 4

(Kagura)

"Stop staring! It's rude," Kyou said annoyed.

"…" I couldn't help it, "does no one else find it odd?"

"Find what odd?" Ayame asked, "Kyonkichi's always been odd looking and-"

"No! I don't think he's odd looking. He just hugged Kisa…and she didn't change!" I pointed out exasperated.

"Well, he is the cat," Hiro said.

"Cat? What cat?"

"Cat of the zodiac," Ritsu said.

"There is no cat. The 12 animals are: rat, cow, tiger, hare, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and boar," I said, "in that order. Where does a cat come from?"

They were all staring at me like I was crazy and I felt like I was going crazy. I wanted to scream for someone to say something.

"We should eat first. The food's getting cold," Kyou said breaking the uncomfortable silence.

"He's right. I'm sorry for my outburst…" I said, "we should eat…"

After Dinner:

(Tohru)

"I'll help you wash the dishes," Kagura said.

I looked at her, "Ok, how about I wash, you dry?"

She nodded, but appeared really troubled.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"There's really a cat in the zodiac?" Kagura asked.

I found it really hard to believe that she just forgot everything. But I was told to not say too much, especially about how she felt towards Kyou to her.

I nodded, "It's not really included in the zodiac…but there's a story about it."

"Can you tell me?" she asked.

I smiled and handed her a dish, "Of course."

.

Later that Night:

(Hatori)

"Hatori-niisan…" someone whispered and gently nudged me.

"Leave me alone, Ayame..."

"It's not Ayame. It's me, Kagura."

I blinked, "Kagura?"

"Can I talk to you?"

I rubbed my eyes and yawned, "Sure."

She pointed towards the door and mouthed, 'Let's go outside.'

I nodded and followed her down the stairs and out onto the porch. I sat beside her on the bench and waited for her to begin.

"I talked to Tohru about Kyou. She told me the story about the cat and how I was friends with Kyou, though she seemed sort of hesitant too. But she told me more stuff than most people. What I don't understand is how can I forget all about him and it appears only him? The weirdest thing is…I didn't even think there was something off. I wouldn't even know there were those forgotten memories had I not seen the pictures or have you guys tell me," she said, "it's so weird…"

"So it is."

"Why would that happen?" she asked.

I believed it could be repressed memories, she forgot because she doesn't want to remember. It was the most logical explanation but to forget everything Kyou related and not feel there was something wrong or missing, it was extremely weird, "I don't know Kagura. I'm a family physician not a psychologist or a doctor that specializes in the brain. But it probably had something to do with the hit on the head you took. Maybe its localized memory lost."

I seriously doubted that, memories were not localized but what could I say? You don't remember him because you don't want to?

"Will I ever regain my memories?"

"I don't know…but maybe you should start over and get to know him again," I suggested.

"If Hatori-niisan says that, my chances of remembering are not good, ne?" she asked, "Kyou doesn't seem to like me. Do you think he's mad at me because I forgot him? Do you think he's hurt?"

"I don't think he's mad, he's just the type of person that seems rude and tough, when you first get to know him," I said.

She smiled, "But he's really a softy inside, ne? I'll try to get to know him tomorrow…again."

"Ok. Best of luck."

"Gomen, Hatori-niisan for waking you up and everything. We should get back inside and sleep ne?" she said.

"I want to stay out here a bit longer," I said, "why don't you get inside first?"

"Oh, okay," she said and added, "night."

"Night," I said and looked up at the night sky, 'Kagura seems happier, more cheerful now than she did before. Maybe like Kana it's better she forgets. That way she's able to have a new beginning and maybe find someone else…'

.

(Kagura)

I woke up and yawned, I grabbed the alarm, '11:36?!'

I brushed my teeth and rushed downstairs to find everyone gone. Well not everyone because I spotted Kyou walk out of the kitchen with a bottle of milk.

"Ohayou gozaimasu!"

He jumped and looked at me, finally saying, "Konnichiwa."

I laughed, "Right, its afternoon right now. So where's everyone?"

"Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure went to get more food. The others are outside playing hide and seek or something of the sort."

"Why aren't you outside?" I asked.

"So I can feed the mosquitoes?"

"…"

"Breakfast is on the table," he said.

"Sumimasen."

He looked at me, "Huh?"

"For forgetting you," I said, "I know it's always harder for the one forgotten, than the one doing the forgetting. I know looking at Hatori-niisan, and Momoji. So I'm really sorry."

After a moment he said, "You think too highly of yourself. I don't care."

I didn't believe him, I think it was his way of making me feel better. I smiled and held out my hand, "I think Hatori-niisan's right. Let begin all over. Hajimemashite. Watashi wa Sohma Kagura. Lets be friends."

He stared at me, then my outstretched hand and finally took it with a sigh, "Baka. Sohma Kyou."

I smiled and shook his hands, "Nice to meet you Kyou."
