Later that day, when the mail came in, Shigure called up to Kyou, informing him that he had a letter in an orange envelope that had his name written in calligraphy and smelled like catnip. Of course Kyou knew that it smelled like catnip. Kyou could smell it from all the way in the front yard. And with an excellent view of the mailbox from his window, it wasn't that hard for Kyou's sensitive nose to pick it up.

Kyou jolted down stairs and fumbled with the letter in getting it from Shigure, then brought it upstairs to his room. He laid it on his green wooden desk that he and Tohru had painted about a year ago. It had all kinds of stars and different phases of the moon painted all over it. To him, it was as beautiful as she was, and he would never give it up.

Staring at it from his bed, the smell from it was intoxicating in the sense that he would die if he didn't play with it. Sure enough he ripped open the letter and threw the envelope out the window and it flew off with the wind. Kyou looked down at the pink paper he held in his hands.

Kyou opened it cautiously, but saw nothing. 'What is this, a joke?' Kyou thought, knowing full well that someone was playing with his mind. No one wrote in invisible ink anymore. Who ever wrote this must have been some practical joker, otherwise they thought he was smart enough to figure out what to do with a blank piece of paper.
