Fog 3
Disclaimer: If furuba was mine, I would be rich. I'm not. So therefore, I don't own it.
Author's note: I'm sorry for the sad and disturbing last chapter. I'm hoping this one will be happier.
Translation (there probably won't be much this chapter): Konnichiwa= Good Afternoon "Honda Tohru des'"= I am Honda Tohru. (In Japan, last names come first) Domo= A pleasure Baka= idiot Anou= um... Hai=yes/sure/okay Gomen=I'm sorry (can also be Gomen nasai) Neko= kitty
As Yuki made his way towards the front gate, the wind grew stronger, stinging his slightly red cheek. Akito had ordered him not to get too aquatinted with this new girl. It might cause the girl to 'think ill of the family'. Though he hated this order, Yuki was resolved not to even look at the girl for more than a glance or communicate to her anymore than small talk.
As he approached the front gate, he noticed the girl. She was standing, facing a row of flowers, clearly spacing out. Her pink kimono and brown hair billowed in the harsh gusts. As he approached her, he grew increasingly nervous. He found no reason why he should be, but he was all the same. As he approached, she turned around. Her face was surprisingly beautiful. It shocked him, though he didn't know why.
As if in slow motion, he felt his cheeks flush red. At the same time, the girl's eyes blinked. Her long lashes gently kissed the meek color of her cheeks. Her eyes opened again, the sky color dilated along with the black. Her perfect lips parted. For a tiny portion of a millisecond, Yuki felt the wistful urge to kiss her. As soon as it came, it went away and left his memory forever. Her lips parted more and the shine from the partially hidden sun glazed the fullness of her lips. She was going to speak.
For a second, Yuki thought she was going to say something mean to him. Akito's constant talk about "him being an outsider" and "people cursed with zodiac animals can never be truly human" had finally gotten to Yuki's mind. The first time he had gotten to speak to a girl other than the females under the zodiac curse and he assumed the worst...
"Ah! Konnichiwa. You must be my escort. Thank you for your time," she said, her voice glowing with joyfulness, like the chiming of a wind chime.
Yuki was taken aback. His negative thoughts vanished. She simply had greeted him. She had no intent on hurting him or ignoring him like Akito said she would.
"Ah.... Um...Domo..." Yuki stammered, the heat on his face making him nervous.
"Honda Tohru des'"the girl (Tohru) laughed. She hopped onto the white horse standing beside her, "Shall we be going? I'm very eager to become a samurai! Could you please tell me what there is to know about this school?"
Yuki clamored on the horse in front of Tohru. The wind gusted harder than it ever had that day with the power of a miniscule tornado. Yuki instinctively placed a hand on his burning cheek.
"Dijoubu des' ka?" Tohru asked, her voice filled with concern, "You're cheek is all swollen!"
"Don't worry about it," Yuki murmured. He wasn't very good with females. He probably sounded like a complete idiot. He cursed himself for being such a baka. Suddenly, he felt a gentle silkiness brush his cheek. She softly rubbed and massaged his cheek with a piece of white cloth. Yuki blushed. He had never been so close to a female, save for Kisa (the tiger, remember?) and Kagura (piggy). This Tohru's hands were so soft and light. It felt like a butterfly was gently beating its wings against his face. As another rush of cold wind rushed by, Tohru's hand trembled as she shivered.
"Umm...anou...We should get going, shouldn't we..." Yuki said. He turned and smiled at Tohru.
"Hai, ummm...." Tohru paused.
"Sohma Yuki des'" Yuki smiled again.
"Sohma-san! Thanks for going out of your way to take me," Tohru said, bowing her head.
"Don't worry," Yuki said. With that, he carefully nudged his horse to get it to move. As they pelted through the wind, Yuki couldn't help but notice that he felt warmer. Suddenly, Akito seemed very far away.
"Gomen...Kyo-kun...Gomen nasai," Shigure whined, bowing with his head in his arms.
"'Gomen' yourself..." Kyo said. He felt so guilty. He didn't know why Shigure was apologizing. He was the one who broke the code of the samurai. He was the one who caused Momiji to fall. He had made Kisa cry and now Haru wouldn't talk to him. He had also beat up Hiro (he wasn't very sorry about that though).
"I didn't mean to call you "neko"..." Shigure whined. It wasn't his usual whine. It was much more serious.
Kyo looked at him. "Gomen nasai. I didn't want to hit you. I didn't want to make Kisa cry...or...Haru to hate me...or everyone's ideas of me being that "insolent neko" become fo-filled..." Kyo felt a burning sensation in his eyes. Salt and liquid dripped down his face.
"K'S0!!"
He hated himself.
It was his own fault. He was the one who lost his temper. He caused this himself. All he could do was sit on the stupid bamboo rug and listen to Shigure apologize for something that was Kyo's fault. Hatori (dragon) had rode off just a little bit after Kyo had run off into the woods to consult Akito on Kyo's behavior. There was no doubt that Kyo would be revoked from his samurai training permanently. He hated it. He hated knowing his fate and knowing he caused it.
Kyo raised a hand up to his face to hide his tears. Shigure was now asking if Kyo felt okay. That all seemed very far away at the moment.
Everyone else had left for the larger dojo to 'train', though it was obvious that they were going to discuss the incident. Ayame carried Momiji, a dead giveaway. If they were training, Momiji would have been left at the small dojo. After Hatori and the group of samurai had left, Shigure had gone chasing him. Kyo distinctly remembered Shigure finding him wallowing in a small rice paddy. Evidently, Kyo had fallen in in his anger, though Kyo remembered nothing of falling at all.
A knock sounded at the door. Kyo, rubbed his stinging eyes furiously, trying to stop the tears. Shigure had obviously gone to the door because when Kyo's vision had stopped blurring, Shigure was gone.
Shigure's voice sounded from the door. "Yuki-kun! It's been awhile."
Kyo snapped. All his hate of himself turned on the rat.
"THAT #%$&! RAT!!! I'LL KILL HIM!!!!!!" Kyo yelled. His voice was full of fire. All the shame and self control and logical reason left Kyo in an instant. It was YUKI'S fault this all happened. If Hiro didn't look so much like him...In a mad frenzy, Kyo rushed passed Shigure and ran headlong into the figure standing at the door.
As he and his target landed in the mud outside the door, a surprisingly high-pitched shriek reached his ears. He raised his fist to punch, ignoring the abnormal sound. Suddenly, a familiar, indescribable sensation covered his body. As his hand went down, his body shrank rapidly into his neko form.
That had never happened with Yuki before.
As Kyo opened his eyes, he found himself staring into the face of a girl. At first, he thought it was Kagura. Momentary panic gripped him as he remembered Kagura's annoying affection towards him. But...this wasn't Kagura. It was another.
Her eyes were rimmed with her tears, but none flowed out. Her mouth framed with perfect lips gaped open in shock. Her brown hair scattered over the ground.
Shock covered Kyo's entire body.
"BAKA NEKO!!!!" Yuki's voice yelled from somewhere to the right. Kyo felt his orange furred body be picked up and thrown into a bush. In a softer voice, he heard Yuki address the girl, "Dijoubu des' ka, Honda-san?" Kyo's sharp eyes caught this new 'Honda-san's' nodding to show she was fine.
"Just shocked me, that's all..." Honda-san smiled.
Though Kyo felt relief that the girl was okay, guilt drowned him.
Why couldn't he just stop being an insolent neko?
He felt tears whell up in his eyes, like his guilt was overflowing.
"Neko-chan!" the voice of Honda-san caught in Kyo's ears, "Where are you? I'm sorry I was in your way."
She didn't seem mad at him... but...
Kyo called out from the bushes, "DON'T YOU DARE APOLOGIZE TO ME! I'M THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE SORRY!"
Kyo didn't cry. He was too sad. He slunk off into the bushes at turtle speed, towards the wall of the dojo. He figured that if he climbed up there, he could hide in his room until Honda-san left.
Was that sad again? I'm not doing this because I hate Kyo...I just wanna set the mood I guess...heh heh. I LOVE YOU KYO-KUN! I REALLY DO!!! Gomen nasai.....tears Next chapter should be happier...I will probably update soon...maybe...One more thing... Yellow chalk is made of moon rocks, not real butter.
