Darkness Sweetheart2000: You have been my undying supporter throughout this story! I actually completely made up the name Kalimine. It's kind of like the names Emilinadrine, Armylla, and Chilara. If you want to read what's written for their stories you can go to Fiction Press! (It's the same PenName!)
B-chan77: I am really sorry I got you confused. The thing about my stories though is that I tend to make the plots a little too complicated but usually they untangle themselves by the end.
summrpnkprncess9: Red Caps are a type of goblin also known as Bloody Caps or Red Combs. The tend to haunt areas where bloody battles have ocurred. They have long grey hair, bright red eyes, and teeth that stick out. They could easily be mistaken for an old man. They always wear red hats. (Not baseball caps! That would confuse the story even more!) Often carry spike tipped sticks, and will spear anyone foolish enough to come near them with it. Their caps become brighter in color every time they spill fresh blood. (Information on Red Caps taken from The Sorcerer's Companion by Allan Zola Kronzek and Elizabeth Kronzek, page 197.) In this story, they can be killed when hit by light, although the truth of this statement is unknown, mostly because I made it up.
To try and make this easy to understand:
Kyo must kill the red cap, then break the Aelvine Curse, then marry Tohru with Akito's permision, to break the Zodiac curse. Kyo apparently knows how to break the Aelvine curse, but as of yet, how is unknown to you.
Chapter Six of What If...
Yuki was worried, he had finally found the other kidnapper and given him a cuncussion too. Shigure heard the fighting downstairs and decided staying in Tohru's room was the best idea. Yuki locked both kidnappers into a closet then hurried down the hall and called Hatori.
"Moshi moshi?" Yuki could tell he had woken Hatori up. Well, no wonder, it was one o'clock in the morning.
"Hatori, would it be possible for you to put two guys to sleep so that we could get the police over here without doing any further damage?"
"Yuki, I don't think that's a good idea." Then Hatori paused, "This is Yuki, right?"
"Yeah, this is Yuki."
"Did you already give them a cuncussion?"
"Yeah, and I locked them in a closet."
Hatori thought for a moment, then said, "I don't hear anyone else in the background. Did you give them both cuncussions without any help?"
"Yeah. Miss Honda and Kyo have disappeared. I can't find them any where."
"I'll come over in a second, but not to put the two thieves to sleep, only to check out how everyone is. I'm sure Shigure is not handling the situation like an adult if he's even awake."
Hatori then hung up the phone. Yuki did too. Then Yuki picked it up again and called the police.

Tohru was pacing the hall again. The red cap was gone, so now they had to break her family's curse. If they didn't break it, her people would never have a real ruler to look up to again because no one in their family could become King or Queen without dying sudden or painful deaths. So far, they had avoided Kalimine's death by not making her Queen, and having other people run business for her. But they had also sent Kalimine to the city where the humans lived so that the idea of making Kalimine queen would not stir the people up.
Tohru was waiting for Kyo who was in the room marked The Red Hat Incident According to Kalimine. Kyo was seeing it through Tohru's eyes and he noted that she really had been asleep for the entire time he sat there next to her. When he finally came out, Tohru looked up at him.
"The Red Caps gone, now we need to break your curse," Kyo looked at Tohru as recognition dawned in his eyes. He had figured out how to break the curse. He really did hold the Key, and he knew what it was.
"Tohru, we have to get back to Shigure's house now."
"I know," she whispered, and put her hand to the wall they had come through.

Yuki was standing in the kitchen staring at the only blank space of wall in there thinking about Kyo's hat. He almost wished he hadn't given it to Tohru, that it had been some other girl, but he knew that Tohru, of all people, had to be the one. It almost made more sense to him now than ever before. But he had also relied heavily on pure concidence.
Suddenly, the wall he was staring at started to ripple and twirl, like some sort of weird portal. Suddenly she heard Tohru's voice.
"Kyo, I know it doesn't look like anything other than a blank space of wall, but it will get you back into the kitchen."
"How do you know?"
"Because I put it there. If it were visible here than the portal would be stuck open, and there would always be a big purple swirlly think in the kitchen. It would make everyone suspicious." Suddenly a hand popped through the swirlly thing. "See Kyo! I can put my hand through the wall."
The hand with drew itself and then suddenly Kyo stepped though, Tohru behind him.
"See, it wasn't that bad!" Then Tohru caught sight of Yuki. She quickly turned around and closed the portal."Damn!" Tohru said, "I didn't want to do this, but I guess I have to." , Kyo was staring at here because she swore. She spoke some odd word, a purple ball made of mist formed in her hand, then she spoke into it, "Anything you witnessed about the portal you will suppress into the deepest, darkest, depths of your mind, including our appearance out of it." Yuki was staring at Tohru. She was doing magic? Then Tohru sent the mist ball flying accross the room at Yuki, grabbed Kyo's hand, closed the portal, and raced out of the kitchen. As soon as the mist ball hit Yuki, he began to act as he had been before the portal opened, and wondering what happened to Tohru and Yuki. He had gone back to thinking they had disappeared.

Kyo and Tohru were racing toward the front door when they ran strait into Hatori who was being followed by police officers.
"I thought Yuki said you two were missing," Hatori said looking at the two.
"I think Yuki got distracted by something and didn't see us walk out the other door of the kitchen," Tohru said. Hatori didn't notice the new violet colored mist ball forming behind Tohru's back, but Kyo did. It was so that Yuki couldn't tell anything that would go against their story. It wouldn't leave Tohru's hand until they had finished talking to Hatori.
"Why were you running?"
"We thought we saw someone," Kyo said.
"Where's Yuki?"
"I think he's in the kitchen," Tohru said, emphasizing the word think.
"I want to talk to you two later," Hatori said, very sternly.
"Hatori, we have something we really need to do," Tohru said, eyes pushing the doctor to let her get away with whatever she wanted. "You do want to break the curse, don't you?" she whispered. Hatori suddenly looked her directly in the eyes.
"You know how to break it?" he asked her. Tohru nodded her head slowly. Hatori let her go, as another mist ball left her hand, flying to Yuki. He was still in the kitchen, and he never even saw the mist ball.
Tohru then sent a spark of light after Hatori that wouldn't allow Hatori to tell Yuki that he had seen them although Tohru let Hatori keep what he knew of their disappearance. He could even tell others, but he couldn't tell Yuki.

"Tohru, where are we going?" Kyo panted after they had been running for a while. They had been running for so long that for once in his life, Kyo was actually tired.
"We're going to the house I was born in," she said. Then she noticed that Kyo was wearing out. "Stop running!" she ordered him. Suddenly they were flying through the air. Kyo hanging on to Tohru's hand for dear life. He was sure that if he let go the result would be the same as if he had jumped out of a speeding car. That was how fast they were going.
Soon they were flying up a tree lined street. There was a compound at the end of the street. It suddenly struck a memory in Kyo's brain. That was the Sohma compound at the end of the street, but they landed in front of a house on the tree-lined street.
"You were born here?" Kyo asked. Tohru nodded.
"I moved away when I was five or six. I was too young to read at the time and didn't know who lived in the house at the end of the street. But now I realize it's the Sohma compound."
Tohru walked up to the door of the small house. Tohru looked at the door, then reached in her pocket. "Now lets see if I can still find it..." she muttered to herself. She found a small gold key and entered it into a small keyhole hidden under the real keyhole. When she turned it, it clicked open the door.
"Tohru, isn't this someone else's house now?" Kyo asked.
"The house, yes, the portal, no," she said. Stepping into what looked like the inside of the house.
"Tohru, isn't this like intruding on someone's property?"
"No, Kyo. This isn't the real inside of the house. It's the recreated inside of the house." She went and grabbed Kyo's wrist. "You see, the real inside has the same lay out, but a more modern feel, and the recreation is more Victorian. My dad made sure to do that so that it was possible to tell the difference. My mother wasn't an Aelf, but my dad taught her how to use this portal when his father died. He knew about our families curse and knew that he would probably die after his coronation. He needed me to know how to use it, and since I was only three at the time, my mom started letting me practice how to do that when I was four."
Kyo was still staring at Tohru a little suspiciously. "Kyo, the people who live here now won't even know we're here." She shut the door behind them. They walked up a flight of stairs to a door that said, "Princess Kalimine's Room". Tohru opened the door. She walked in the door practically draging Kyo in. He was walking but feeling uncomfortable about trespassing. In the room were several doors. One said "Coronation" on it. Another said "Spell Practice". Kyo eyed the "Coronation" door like it was dangerous.
"Kyo, have you figured out how to break the curse?" asked Tohru after she had sealed off the room so no one could here their conversation. Kyo slowly nodded his head, and gulped.
A/N: I hope this is clearing up to all you confused minds a bit. If it's not I can try to explain it to you. Please respond. Oh, and to give you a hint, Kyo literally holds the Key. You've seen the Key before. You've also seen it used before. You just havn't seen it used for this purpose. Hehehe! Chapter Seven is coming soon!
