Chapter 7

The Orphan

Last time on Reverse of the Curse - Breezy was having many bouts of randomness ranging from flaming pickles to an invisible jump rope. The tape she made from when she talked to Tohru got messed up and then she had a talk with Jay, a blue jay. He told her to go and see Rayna Rohea. Now we're about to learn about her.
The chapter title does sound a little depressing, but I think that seriousness needs to be added after all of that randomness although there's still more to go around.

STANDARD DISCLAIMERS APPLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's fun to hold down the shift key and one button for a long time. Sorry, I'm just easily amused...no, really.

Breezy's POV (with a mix of randomness and seriousness)

We found a place to sit on a bench and Rayna began talking of her devastating past.

"Well, to start off, my parents died when I was 7. I was put into an orphanage along with my brother, Timiki. He was adopted by an army general and then his foster dad hod to go to war. He had to take Timiki with him. Unfortunately, a bomb exploded and they both died. I was later adopted at 9 by and old lady named Marianne and she passed away last year. Now I'm all alone and my only friend is Jay. I was really down and he cheered me up. He probably wanted you to see me because you were having a rough time too. He wanted you to see how other's have bad times as well. You can try to remake the tape. There are programs. Technically it's not piracy because she really said those things, right? So it's all fair, especially to get someone off your back. There is another option, though. You can talk to Kyo and get him to confess. How I know all of this stuff is my little secret, 'kay?" and the she vanished into thin air.

"That was...weird," commented Haru.

"I think that I'll take her advice, I'll do both. It'll be fool proof like that. Haru, do you think that you could handle Kyo for me? I'll deal with the computer Tohru voice," I said.

"I don't see why not," Haru replied.

"Then let's get to work!" I exclaimed and we went home...to Sensei's, I mean.

We entered the house and stood there, with dumbfounded faces. The house was a wreck inside but looked completely normal on the outside. The weird thing was...nobody was home. We searched high and low and they were nowhere to be seen/ Since it was such a wreck, we decided to go to the main house.

The main house was in way better shape than Sensei's place. We went to the outskirts of the Sohma compound to be as far away from Akito as possible.

We made it to a small river and sat down to talk.

"Do you think that Kagura did that to the house?" Haru asked.

"I know as much as you know about it. Hey, do you think that a turtle did it?" I asked innocently.

"A turtle? Oh yeah, that's right Miss Random. Well, maybe a mutated one. Or maybe you're using a secret code," he mentioned slyly.

"Oh, really?" I inquired.

"Yeah, maybe it really means hold me because I love you," and he did so. I could feel his warmth spread across my body as we watched the setting sun. The stars came out and we admired the beauty of it all.

Then, under the full moonlight, he asked, "How about another birthday present?"

I put my randomness aside and followed his lead. We enjoyed every second of it: Kissing in the moonlight and holding each other as the night grew old. We knew it was late and we had to go. We went to an empty house at the estate and I fell asleep in his arms since it was a chilly night.

I awoke from a bad dream because Haru had noticed something odd in my breathing pattern.

"Breezy, are you alright? You were having a sudden breathing problem. Were you running from something in a dream?" he asked concerned.

"You were...being killed by Akito and then he came after me so I ran, but then I realized that I couldn't leave you so I went back and all sorts of things happened. Then you woke me up. Sorry that I worried you," I explained to him.

"No, it's all right. But why a dream like that? Let's get ready to go back to Sensei's, 'kay?" he suggested.

"'kay," I said as I got up.

We left and took our lovely time going to Sensei's. I couldn't help but have some random thoughts.

"Y'know, I've always wondered what it was like to sleep for four months in a row, like a bear. I wonder how much I'd have to eat before I could do that. Have you ever wondered that, Haru-chan?" I asked rather randomly.

Not really. I've just wondered what it's like to live on a farm. I'd like to ask the farmers what I taste like," he replied.

"Hm...I never thought about that. Although, a lot of people wonder what it's like to be a fire fly. Y'know, how their rears light up. People wonder if it might burn...weird, huh? I dunno, I just wanna sleep for a few months. I'm just weird myself," I stated.

"But, I like you this way. My life is never boring with you around. That's something that I truly enjoy about you. Please, don't ever change that," he said.

"Oh, thanks," I replied blushing. "Everyone else just says that I don't make any sense. Especially Tohru and even Yuki. They never believe what I say like about the blue jay. Not even Kyo believed me. Of course, he tried to eat Jay once, but still. Just because I'm a random person doesn't mean that random things can't happen to me. I live in random world where things around me are just as random as I am. Y'know what I mean?"

"I understand. After all, you're my love, my love that I will cherish no matter how 'weird' she is, even if no one else ever believes her, I will," he responded. He pulled me into a deep kiss. "A/N: So much love. Aw, I love it although it isn't the best stuff ever written...I've seen better.)

We made our way to Sensei's house and we saw that everybody was home. The yesterday struck us. "Hey, what happened to the house yesterday?" I asked.

"Well...let's just say that Kyo and Yuki got mad. Now, where were you two last night?" asked Sensei slyly.

"None of your business, sick bastard," Yuki said. He may've not of known what had happened but he knew that it wasn't anyone's business but mine and Haru's.

End of chapter. Yeah, not enough randomness in this chapter. I was actually using my brain to write this so that's why. It gotta a little to lovey dovey at times but you'll live. Jut remember, the end is near in the story. Once I wrap this up, I'll start writing more of In The Days To Come and maybe even the sequel to The Curse I Never Had. Just a warning, the next chapter is the last (no lies about it, I've already written it) and it's way too lovey dovey for my liking but I think that I'll live and if I live, the you guys will too, right?
