Chapter 6

A/N: Well………… Hi!

Disclaimer: I own nothing except Akitos sisters and the cabin they lived in. Oh there is some cursing as always.

A few hours later when some more meaningless questions were asked and dessert was consumed Akito literally threw everyone out except for Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure.

"Shigure," he began slowly, "if you lay a single finger on either of my sisters you will suffer the same fate Hatori did." Shigure could not help but nod, but in his mind he knew that sooner or later he would not only place a finger but much more than that.

"Understood?"

That statement brought Shigure back from some very interesting mental pictures. "Yes."

"Good," said Akito while turning back around to face Ayame, "The same goes for you too."

"Like would ever, " said Ayame using his most offended look.

"Do you mean to say you find my sisters undesirable?" Akito knew that Ayame did, but it was entertaining watching the usually eloquent man fumble over words.

"I…well…yes…but… no…I mean," Ayame now understood how intimidating Akito could be.

"You don't have to answer that," interrupted Aeika. She didn't like watching her brother intimidate such a handsome man.

Akito eyed his sister's bold move but decided he would deal with her later. "As for you Hatori take the minivan and retrieve all of my sisters belongings, Suzuka believes important."

"Hatori? That is your name right? Please make sure you get my cat please. No matter what," said Satsuki positive her sister would pretend she didn't remember the cat existed.

"Why do I have to do it?" questioned Hatori. The thought of being with the devil incarnate alone in car was not something he looked forward to.

"Because I said so," Akito had turned that particular statement into his motto. And in all sincerity it was the only reason he could really use without lying. "Why wouldn't you want to do it?" Akito took sick sadistic pleasure in pushing peoples buttons. After seeing the bicker and banter between his sister Suzuka and Hatori he couldn't help but put them together so they could rip each other apart.

"Fine, when do we go?" asked Hatori finally noticing that no matter what he said he in the end would be forced to go.

"Now."

Shigure decided to take Ayame home, after having to convince Yuki. Shigure of course was driving, Ayame was in the passenger seat, and Yuki was in the back seat.

"Well Ayaa, what do you think about his sisters?" asked Shigure.

"Whose sisters?" Ayame was hopeless.

"Akitos. Retard." Shigure bopped Ayame over the head. Ayame then proceeded to cry and whimper like a beaten puppy. "Oh, God I'm so sorry!" Shigure then let go of the steering wheel so he could hug his best friend.

"HOLLY SHIT!" Yuki jumped from his seat and took hold of the steering wheel and tried his best to keep the car from wandering into the opposite lane.

"You forgive me?" asked Shigure after letting go of Ayame and regaining control of the vehicle.

"Of course why wouldn't I," said Ayame while wiping tears from his eyes.

"I think both of you are retarded," said Yuki with an exasperated sigh. Yuki rubbed his temples; he felt a headache coming on.

Hatori drove in silence hoping that Suzuka would do the same but unfortunately for him that was not physically possible for the ravaging beauty beside him.

"Can I play some music?" Suzuka not waiting for an answer searched for her favorite station. Hatori's ears were suddenly bombarded with heavy rock music at full blast.

"What on Gods green earth is that infernal sound?" Hatori had to scream for his question to be heard.

"You wanna screw what?" she shouted. Suzuka understood Hatori's question but enjoyed watching his face turn a sickly green. "I'm just playing, this is Guns and Roses". Suzuka continued to lip-sync every single lyric in the song.

"I don't care whom it is I just want it off!" not being able to control his anger any longer, Hatori turned off the music. Suzuka scowled and tuned it back on, then Hatori turned it back off, then She pushed his hand out of the way and turned it back on, then finally for the last time Hatori turned it off. In a split second Suzuka punched a hole straight through the stereo system she yelped at the sudden burst of pain that shot through her arm.

"Why did you do that for," asked Hatori his face red with anger.

"If I can't listen to music nobody can," she clutched her bleeding fist. Hatori's face changed with sudden concern as he saw that Suzukas eyes watered with pain, she cursed under her breath.

"I'll take a look at it when we get to your house," said Hatori trying not to look too worried.

Instead of giving one of her snarky remarks Suzuka simply nodded her head. Suzuka wasn't used to being taken care of, and the thought of having Hatori care enough to want to help her, made her melt. For the rest of the trip they remained in perpetual silence.

Then suddenly without warning, "do you have a large penis?" Suzuka tried very hard not to crash into the window as the car came to a screeching halt.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Hatori was infuriated and appalled, though he momentarily considered answering.

"We're here", Suzuka couldn't help but smirk as Hatori eyed her carefully as his usually stoic face turned into a look of utter disgust. He emerged from the car at looked up the breath taking scene before him. A twin peaked mountain stood tall tickling the sky, clouds hovered at the top, they appeared as blankets keeping the mountains warm from the chilly night air.

"It's over here," Suzuka motioned over to a weather-beaten path. Hatori took notice of how solemn she looked. In the short time he'd met the infuriating beauty, he'd noticed how her amber eyes shone with life and spirit. But know her eyes were set to the ground, all emotion erased from her face, it sadden him to see her that way; for though she was maddening she was equally beautiful. 'What the hell? Did I just call her beautiful?'

"This is it," said Suzuka pointing at a large cabin with two floors; flowers covered every visible inch of the small front yard.

"It's nice," said Hatori while taking the initiative in picking up the pace.

Suzuka gave a loud audible sigh, "Yeah sure whatever"

"You girls, keep your hormones in check", Akito had heard enough of a prior conversation going on in the room occupied by his sisters to know that being isolated from men was taking it's toll on them. Satsuki and Aeika, at hearing their brother's voice, both jumped. Satsuki on her bed bounced a couple of times and Aeika on the floor, fell backwards and bashed her head on the tatami mats.

"You scared the crap of me little brother!" Aeika bounded off the ground and gave her little brother a hug. At the sudden act of affection Akito merely stood like a statue and waited for the little love-fest to end. With a sigh of exasperation he pushed Aeika to the ground. "I have not changed, I am still head of house and deserve to be treated with more respect! Let this be a warning to both of you." He simply walked out with only a passing glance at Satsuki.

"Ow," Aeika being hit twice in the same 15 seconds couldn't help but pout as she picked up a pencil and notebook and began to sketch away on her bed at the other side of the room.

"I told you he's still as coldhearted as ever," said Satsuki as she picked up a book and began to read it. Aeika quietly cried at her bed, thinking her beloved sister did not hear the silent sobs.

'Poor thing, she needs to learn somehow.'

"So is this all of it?" grunted Hatori his face not visible from the mountain of clothing he had in his strong arms. 'How much stuff can they have?'

"Yeah, other than the cat," said Suzuka while trying to maintain a strong grip on the struggling feline in her hands. There was an array of bite and scratch marks on her arms. But one specific scratch caught Hatori's eye, three little parallel scratches on her right cheek.

After chuckling to him self, Hatori led the way to the already full minivan. After Hatori and Suzuka arranged the odds and ends around in the trunk and back seats, they began to head back home.

"So your part of the zodiac huh?" Suzuka was tying to start a conversation, seeing as they would be alone in the car for a while.

"Yes, the dragon," answered Hatori truthfully.

"That's cool, as far as a curse can be," said Suzuka with a crooked smile on her full lips.

"And you?" asked Hatori he knew all the Sohmas cursed by the zodiac and he was sure they were all filled, unless there was something he didn't know.

Suzuka sighed before deciding to answer, "Well it's a long story."

"We have and a half, I think we have time. Unless you don't want to talk about it then a understand." Hatori didn't much interest in the personal life of others, but Suzuka was something special and he knew she was different, in a good way.

"As you know, my brother Akito is the core of the curse, me and my sisters have what you could call," Suzuka struggled for words, "the… the… look when we get back just ask Satsuki she can explain it better than I can." Suzuka took a deep breath and looked out the window. She couldn't find the words to explain. It angered her.

"When we get back I'll take a look at that hand," said Hatori looking ahead. At Hatori's remark she looked at her hand and saw it looked pretty bad. It was bruised purple with many cuts some from the hard punch she gave the radio a couple hours ago, and some from the cat that was peacefully sleeping in the back seat of the car.

It was about one o'clock in the morning and Yuki finally was able to set foot into his home. It took so long to get home because Shigure and Ayame kept making stops along the way.

(Flash back)

"I wanna go to a strip club!"

"I want to buy hair barrettes."

"Lets get a burrito!"

"Lets go to the mall!"

"YEAH1 We can pick up a girl there!"

Yuki couldn't take it anymore, "SHUT UP," Yuki sighed, "lets just go home."

(End flash back)

"What took so long?" whispered Kyo from the couch with a sleeping Tohru on his lap. "You guys have worried her sick. She's been going on and on and on, till she fell asleep on me half an hour ago."

There were a couple of moments of silence and out of nowhere, "Sorry you're just so comfy," Tohru stirred but didn't become fully awake. She propped herself up and placed her face in the crock of Kyo's neck. He gulped but let her remain in his arms.

Yuki's face darkened but decided it was better to just ignore the tightening of his heart before any of the others in the room noticed.

"Kyo and Tohru sitting in a tree F-U-C," started Shigure with a wide smile over his face.

"Don't finish that," Hatori was now standing at the door way holding the back of Shigure's neck, hoping god would give him the power to just snap his neck. At the sound of Hatori's voice, Tohru woke up but kept her head on Kyo's neck subconsciously, when she noticed what had just happened she blushed furiously and gave a nervous giggle, but still kept her head on Kyo's neck.

"Well how did it go with the one with the nice rack?" asked Shigure.

"It went fine." Suzuka emerged from behind Hatori with a look that could kill.

"I left my first aid kit here so I though I could treat her hand here."

Shigure chuckled nervously "Hi!"
