********************************************************************************************
The light walked along side the two tortured spirits. They were headed away from the god of many sins. As he watched from the shadows, corrupts thoughts filled his mind and corrupted his heart. A dark desire engulfed his tainted heart, as the angel walked away the god sought to capture her into his darkness.
* * * *
Tohru and the others returned home not too long after her meeting with Akito. It was an emotional experience for her and those around her. Akito the twisted bastard was finally shown what his reality is like. Yuki and Kyou hoped what she told him would alter some change in him.
It was near late afternoon. Tohru was starting to prepare their supper. She was in a very happy mood. As she was bringing out the pots and ingredients, Kyou and Yuki came into the kitchen. They both started to help her prepare dinner silently. A true smile slipped across Tohru's already content face.
Tohru was preparing the rice to go with their soup. Kyou had the honor of watching it on the stove. The cooking inept Yuki was stuck cutting up vegetables for the stew. In the process of slicing up a few carrots, he created a spill of crimson liquid from his hand.
Tohru dropped what she was doing and rushed to the mouse's side, picking up his hand. "Yuki-kun! Yuki-kun hurt himself! Band-Aid! We need a Band-Aid!"
Tohru rushed out of the kitchen to the bathroom. Yuki put his finger to his mouth and slowly licked up the flowing bit of life from the cut. He purposely showed his tongue while he was doing this, giving a satisfied look on his face to Kyou. Kyou gave him a disgusted look with a hint of distaste.
Tohru came back before Kyou could say anything, Band-Aid box in hand. "Yuki-kun, hold out your finger". Obediently, Yuki placed his finger out while Tohru put on the bright pink and yellow Band-Aid. Yuki smiled softly, "Thank you Honda-san".
"Does is hurt much?" She asked as she stared down at his finger while Yuki was giving off looks to provoke Kyou. He was using all his restraint trying to not wipe that look off with his hand.
Yuki shook his head "A little, but Honda-san's gentle hands have made the pain go away!" Tohru blushed and stuttered out something, when a loud crash was heard behind her. There, a pissed off Kyou was standing, a pot had been dropped. Yuki titled his head to the side, as to ask "Are you really that pathetic?"
A smirk smile spread upon Yuki's face. Tohru went over to pick up the fallen pot. Kyou bent down raising his hand to stop her.
"I got it." Kyou mumbled, reaching down to get the pot. Tohru went down as well, claiming that she'd get it. Their heads bumped, but so did their hands. "You idiot! I told you I had it!" the angry neko yelled, a blush spreading across his cheeks. He looked away as the red spread to all parts of his face.
He immediately got up and placed the pot onto the counter. His back was turned to the still kneeling Tohru. She had a look of sadness upon her face. She got up and her left arm was placed in a fist over her heart.
He felt bad, but he wouldn't admit it. He gave an angry glare at Yuki's sneering face and walked back over to the kneeling angel. "Sheesh, if getting a pot means that much to you, you can get it next time!" he said, a undertone of softness behind the words, and lightly bopped her on her head.
A quaint smile spread across Tohru's face. Her eyes reflected vibrantly like stars. An immense presence of emotion shone from her face. Kyou stared into the light of her eyes. Kyou's face went red, and opened his mouth to say something to Tohru, when Yuki's calm voice interupted the tender moment. "Honda-san, baka neko, the food is boiling over". Tohru gasped and shot up from her kneeling position while Kyou yelled that he wasn't a baka neko.
At that moment a tummy rumbling Shigure entered the kitchen. He was sniffing the air. Shigure gave the group a look of starvation.
"Where's my food?" He said in a mock weak voice.
All three of the teens turned around. "Ah, gomen nasai Shigure-san! We had a slight delay! But it'll be ready in a moment!" Tohru said, bowing to the inu. "Delay was that ratboy can't even cut vegetables correctly!". Shigure lifted an eyebrow. "It would have been done even sooner if this baka neko wasn't flirting with Honda-san". His voice was calm, but with a bitter crisp to it.
Shigure turned his head to Yuki. He had a little smile that showed amusement in his face. Tohru had bright red spreading across her face in waves. She gave a look over to Kyou who blushed back and turned away. She then stared at Yuki and the blushing fainted slightly. She turned herself around and busied herself with dinner.
"Kyou-kuuuuuun, don't bluuuuuuush, we all know that you like Tohru-chaaaaaaan" Shigure sang as he left the room, his amusement coming from Kyou's blushing and lack of words. "Cat got your tongue?" Yuki mocked, smirking. "But, Kyou-kun has a rival! Yuki-kun also likes Tohru-chan! Oh my!" Shigure sang from down the hall.
Kyou and Yuki were having a silent standoff behind Tohru's back. Nasty looks covered each face. Tohru turned around suddenly with the ready pot in her hands. Their faces immediately had smiles for her. She was blushing from hearing the song Shigure had sung.
"Honda-san, would you like me to carry the food for you?" Yuki kindly asked, taking it before Tohru could say. He walked out, Tohru and Kyou behind him. "Oy! Shigure! Foods ready!" the neko yelled, and mentally smacked himself for even telling the perverted Shigure that his meal was ready.
Tohru walked over to the cabinet and grabbed the plates. Kyou came up to her and took them from her hands. "Don't worry, I'll do it." He said as he walked out of the room. Tohru gave a little puzzled look, but she grabbed the silverware from the drawer and headed to join the others.
Kyou had arranged the plates. He mad it so that Yuki was the farthest away from Tohru. Tohru came in and handed out the utensils. Within a few minutes they were settled down and started to eat. Shigure was all happy to fill his grumbling belly. Tohru smiled at him and started on her own meal.
Yuki and Kyou were giving glances at each other across the table. Only when Tohru was not paying attention. A knock came upon the door. Shigure being the closest went and answered. As he got up he said. "Play nice you kiddies while I'm gone." He laughed as he left the room.
Silence except for the consuming of the meal filled the room. Only the steps of Shigure coming down the hall gave any other hint of life. His usual mocking face was very serious as he entered. He starred across to Tohru who looked up. Hatsuharu wearing a coat was standing behind him. His face not too much different than Shigures.
"Tohru," He said, "You've been requested to go to the main house."
She looked surprised and said "When Shigure-san?"
"Tonight, alone."
Kyou was the first to react, "Who the hell wants to see her?!". But he should of already known the answer; Shigure's face was grave and Hatsuharu was staring at the ground. "What does Akito want with Tohru?" Yuki asked, a faint trace of fear in his voice. The ox shrugged.
Tohru got up from her seat at the table.
"Shigure-san, I'll go. Is Hatsuharu-kun to come with me?"
Haru nodded to her. "We're to go immediatly."
"Uhh...Haru...how did you get here anyway?" Kyou asked, sweat-dropping. Haru blinked. "I left in the morning...I wanted to give Honda-san some time to get ready...but suddenly, I fell asleep while still walking, and lost track of the trail I was following." "So you got lost." Yuki said, shaking his head slightly.
Haru was about to say something but stopped before his mouth formed the words. "Never mind, Tohru-san we must get going." He motioned for her to follow him.
Tohru slowly got up, bowing to the boys "Gomen nasai for leaving the place a mess! When I return, I shall clean up!". Her voice was cheery, but she was scared. The last time she had met Akito, had hurt her physically and emotionally.
She left the room and got her coat and shoes. Worried looks shifted about the room. Haru came up behind Tohru. She stood up from having to sit down and put her shoes on. Haru went ahead of her, waiting for her to follow.
Tohru and Haru walked beneth the darkened skies. A full moon hung above them, bathing the trees in twilight. It was not a cold night but a chill spread across Tohru's body.
"Want my jacket, Honda-san?" The gray eyed teen asked, he had the deepest pity for her now. His thoughts swam to the budding romances between Tohru and the young boys living with her. Was that why Akito wanted to see her? To punish her for making Kyou and Yuki fall in love? Akito didn't stand to have people love another; Hatori, Kisa and even his the ox's own girlfriend, Rin, had been victims simply for loving one another.
Tohru looked up at him and declined. "I'm alright Haru-kun." She smiled at him, but fear was hiding just beneath. Reflection of lights was coming up ahead of them. The familiar entrance of the Main Souma residence came into view.
