Momiji chased Tohru in the waves while Hatsuharu, Kyo, and Yuki watched from the chairs they were sitting in on the beach. It was the next day and they were once again down on the beach having some fun. Haru smiled as he placed the sunglasses that were over his eyes on his head, and pulled out a bottle of suntan lotion and began rubbing it on his body.
"Need some Yuki?" he asked turning to his cousin.
"I already put some on Haru" Yuki replied, "You know me."
"Right. How about you Kyo?"
"No thanks" Kyo said shortly looking back out into the water, "That dummy!" he suddenly exclaimed standing up, "She's getting into the deeper part again" he ran down the sand towards the water, "Tohru!"
Hatsuharu started laughing and noticed that Yuki was smiling as well. He leaned back in his chair surprised.
"Hey. I thought that you would be frowning" Haru replied.
"Why would a frown?" Yuki asked.
"It used to annoy you when other people used to show an interest in her."
"Yes well" Yuki sighed contently, "It doesn't annoy me anymore."
"Why's that?"
"Because Haru. I'm not in love with Miss Honda. I haven't been for a long time."
"Really?"
"Yes" Yuki nodded, "And I also know that she and Kyo have strong feelings for each other."
"You know? I mean you actually know?"
"Yes Haru I do" Yuki nodded, "I even told Miss Honda and him that they should tell each other how they feel."
"Huh" Haru gasped with a smile, "You know Yuki, you amaze me."
"Why's that?"
"You hate Kyo, and yet you're willing to let them be together?"
"It's what Miss Honda wants. And all I want for her is for her to be happy. True I don't like that it's him, but she loves him and I can also see and have seen for myself, that he really truly loves her too. I mean just little stuff like that" he gestured toward the ocean, "Running out there so she doesn't get hurt. He really does love her."
"Yea he does" Haru replied, "He told me so himself. Oh I really hope he goes for it" he looked at the waves where Kyo was trying to steer Tohru back to the shore.
"Yea" Yuki sighed, "I hope so too. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but he really does deserve this."
"Yea" Haru added.
Kyo walked up out of the water with a laughing Momiji and a giggling Tohru behind him.
"Don't scare me like that again" he replied.
"Okay" Tohru said with a smile, "I'm sorry Kyo" she replied drying herself off with her towel, "I didn't mean to scare you."
"It's all right" he huffed sitting back in his chair, "Just don't go that deep next time."
"Okay" she agreed.
"Yoo Hoo!" a familiar voice called.
"Oh no" Yuki put a hand to his head.
Haru looked back over his shoulder and noticed Ayame and Shigure strolling toward them. He jumped up.
"Well I didn't know that they were coming together" he replied as he ran over with Momiji not far behind him.
It took a few minutes till the two adults had arrived at their spot.
"So you kids having fun?" Shigure asked.
"Mhm" Momiji nodded, "We're all having a blast. Where's everyone else?"
"They'll be arriving shortly with Hatori. Aya and I wanted to get here a little earlier."
"Oh yes" Ayame agreed, "Hello again there Kisa and Hiro!" he waved over at the two of them, they were building sandcastles.
Kisa waved back while Hiro merely frowned.
"And you little brother" Ayame replied as Yuki stood up with a sigh, "It's been so long since we have seen each other."
"Hello" Yuki replied with another sigh.
"And Princess Tohru you're here too" Ayame beamed as she stepped forward.
"Hello there Ayame" she bowed her head, "It's good to see you again."
"Do you have to call her that?" Kyo demanded standing to the side of him with his hands on his hips.
"Ah Lucky Kyo" Ayame spun around, "I didn't see you there."
"I told you to stop calling me that as well" he replied gritting his teeth on every line.
Ayame chuckled.
"In any event, Shigure we should go get ready to come down to the beach."
"Yes" Shigure nodded, "Indeed. By that time the others should be here."
"Um just out of curiosity Shigure" Momiji said stepping forward, "Who alls coming?"
"Well let's see. Um. Kagura will be here."
Kyo froze.
"Kagura will be here?" he repeated stiff as a board.
"Yes she'll be here" Shigure smiled while Kyo grimaced in horror, "And Hatori of course and lets see, oh yes Rin too."
"Rin?" Yuki replied out loud while Haru stared at him stunned.
"Yes Kagura convinced her to come this time. Well come along Aya. Let's get ready" he began to walk back to the house.
"Indeed. See you kids later" he replied followed by his annoying laugh, "Shigure wait for me!" he called running after him.
"Rin and Kagura?" Yuki thought as he looked at the stunned Haru and the terrified Kyo, "This is going to be an interesting vacation."

Back at the main house Kureno walked into Akito's room where he was sitting, caressing the feathers of his favorite bird.
"Akito the car is ready" Kureno replied, "Hatori left about an hour ago."
"Did you tell him anything about me coming up there" Akito asked.
"I'm sure he already knows because of Shigure."
"More than likely" Akito replied standing up, "Well let's go. I wouldn't want to keep them waiting" he smiled menacingly.
" Yes sir" Kureno nodded as Akito exited, then he frowned, "What is he planning this time?" he thought as he too exited the room.

That evening per Hatsuharu's request Tohru made ginger pork. Kagura, Hatori, and Rin had arrived around the time Shigure and Ayame were dressed and had come down to the beach. The first thing they noticed was how calm Kagura was when she saw Kyo. She didn't jump on him or anything. She merely walked over to Tohru and Kisa and talked about her cat Kyoko that she had spotted at the beach house when she arrived. Of course Tohru couldn't leave her behind. Rin had remained back at the house, much to Haru's disappointment. When they had come back, they didn't see her until dinnertime and even then she said hardly anything.
About an hour after dinner while they were sitting in the living room, the staff at the beach house was running around frantically. Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure looked at each other and stood up, following the staff over to the larger beach house.
"Wonder what's going on?" Kyo replied.
"Isn't it obvious stupid cat" Yuki said with a sigh, "Akito's here."
(Next Scene)
Akito settled into his surroundings and while Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure gave instructions to the servants he gazed out the window and smiled.
"I bet they're all wondering what I am doing here, right now" he thought, "They must be terrified. However, tomorrow I will speak with them. I will find out if they are all truly loyal to me."
