HATORI'S POV

Hatori sat at his desk, sifting through Akito's old medical records. Although he was now dead the information he gathered over the years might be helpful in case Fury started showing illness just as Akito had.

A sudden knock on his door made Hatori made him pause long enough to invite the knocker in. "Come in."

"We've found the information you requested." A young hacker, Haji Sohma, said proudly while his sister, Seia Sohma, just nodded. Although neither were members of the zodiac, their expert hacking skills allowed them to live in the Sohma estate since they were used frequently.

"Thank you." Hatori said taking the package that Seia held out to him.

"No problem!" Haji said enthusiastically, watching Hatori take a peek at the contents. "Unfortunately we didn't find anything on that girl you mentioned, but we got the other stuff you requested."

"That's fine." Hatori replied, giving a curt nod that told them they were dismissed. Both Seia and Haji bowed their heads and left, shutting the door behind them. Just as I thought. There isn't any information on Fury.

Hatori let out a sigh and pulled out the papers. He quickly glanced them over, quickly absorbing the contents. When he finished he picked up the phone and dialed Shigure's house phone.

It rang twice before Shigure answered the phone enthusiastically. "Shhhiguurree speaking!"

"Shigure is Fury and the others home yet?" Hatori asked, not bothering to greet his childhood friend.

"Oh yes Hari! How are you? Oh I'm swell!" Shigure said sarcastically having a one-sided conversation, before he snapped back to normal. "What happened to your manners Hari?"

Hatori sighed and said, "I'll be heading over there within the next hour. Make sure that they're home when I arrive. I'll see you then." Then Hatori sighed and went back to sorting through the old files.

KYO"S POV

"Fury Mamatsui! How dare you!" Kyo heard their infuriated homeroom teacher shouting as he walked back from the bathroom. He rounded the corner to find Fury leaning against the wall, blood splattered across her uniform, as the teacher screamed at her. Where the hell did all that blood come from! "Those poor girls! How could-"

The teacher was cut short, however, when Fury said, "Hey there Kyo." Her eyes were still closed and she still leaned against the wall looking as if she had fallen asleep. How did she know I was here?

"How dare you interrupt me!" The teacher shouted in outrage.

Suddenly Fury opened her eyes and sent a glare that made the teacher shut up and begin to look nervous. "I'm tired of hearing your endless tirade. What's done is done, so just leave it at that and leave me alone." Fury, than proceeded to walk away from the shocked teacher and towards Kyo. "Come take a walk with me." Before Kyo could respond she grabbed his arm and dragged him to the roof.

"What the hell do you think you're doing!" Kyo shouted outraged as she let go of his arm. "And why the hell do you have blood on your uniform?"

Fury sighed and leaned against the rail, her hair whipping wildly around her face due to the strong wind. "I beat the crap out of those stupid fan girls. They kept harassing me about their precious "prince" Yuki."

Great! So why the hell did she drag me up here with her? "So what do you want?" Kyo asked folding his arms across his chest and appearing to be frustrated.

"I don't know," she said, fastening her orange eyes onto him. "Company perhaps?" She asked the words almost sounding like a statement. God her eyes are so creepy! She's making me get goosebumps! After a moment she smiled and said, "It felt great." When she noticed his confused look she said, "When I beat up those girls. It's like I need to let out my stress every once in a while, and let me tell you that's a great way to do it."

"Your crazy." Kyo said staring at her.

"Perhaps." She said her smile broadening. "Indeed I very well may be crazy." Suddenly her eyes looked over to the roof entrance from where Uo, Hana, Tohru, and Yuki were emerging.

"Hey there!" Uo said smiling as she came up to them. "Good job, Fury! I couldn't have done better myself! I bet those fan girls won't bother Tohru or you anymore!" Kyo watched Fury just nod at the congratulations.

"Are you okay?" Tohru asked fussing over Fury. "Did you get hurt at all?"

"Don't waste your breath Tohru." Kyo said. "I doubt Fury is the one with the injuries."

He watched Tohru pale slightly. She's probably remembering when Fury ripped Akito's throat out. I guess it's not the easiest thing to forget…

HANA"S POV

She watched as Tohru paled slightly and narrowed her eyes. Why did Tohru pale? She glanced at Yuki and Kyo who also looked like they knew what Tohru was doing; meanwhile Fury was just leaning against the world nonchalantly. It seems that it's some sort of secret their hiding. I wonder if it could have anything to do with Fury…

Hana glanced at Fury, whose aura was almost as black as pitch. Hmm. I hadn't noticed before but her aura has gotten even more tainted than before. But… why?

"Is there something I can do for you?" Fury asked Hana, startling her out of her pensive state. Hana narrowed her eyes and tried not to blush at having been caught staring.

"No. Nothing I was just thinking." Hana replied in her usual mysterious manner.

"Riiight." Fury said with a hint of sarcasm, as if she didn't quit believe her. Hana watched as Fury shrugged it off and asked, "So what brings you all to the roof?"

"The class is in umm… uproar ever since Fury beat up the fan club girls." Yuki said. "So the teacher dismissed us for the rest of the day."

"Cool." Fury and Kyo said at the same time. "Let's ditch this joint!" Uo said smiling. Together they all went back down and out of the school. Hana eyed Fury from the corner of her eye as she walked next to Tohru and Uo. Yuki and Kyo were off to the other side of Tohru, but Fury remained slightly farther back from the group. I'm not quite sure why she makes me so nervous. But she might be a danger not just to Tohru, but to everyone else.

FURY'S POV

I could feel Hanajima's gaze on me even as I walked. I knew she was wary of me. Probably because her telekinetic powers can sense my aura. Oh well nothing I can do about that. I had also noticed how Tohru had paled, and although I didn't say anything, it was about time Tohru got over the fact that I killed Akito.

They probably all hate me. But I guess I can't expect anything more than that, huh? I watched as Tohru walked with all her friends about her. It must be so nice to have so many people who care about you. I stopped in my tracks and felt my chest constrict, remembering the words my mother had said to me when I was younger.

Flashback: "Remember we're doing this because we love you."

I laughed bitterly to myself. I had been so gullible then and had actually believed her. But as I grew up, I realized that she had given me to him because she was afraid of me as well as my father and the only thing they had on their mind was to protect themselves and my sister, from me.

"Fury? Hello you in there?" Kyo asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. As I came to myself I realized I had been clenching my hands into fists so hard that I had drawn some blood. "You alright?"

"I'm fine." I said, shoving past him, causing him to stumble and almost fall onto the ground.

"Dammit you! What the hell! That's the last time I ever check to see how you're feeling!" Kyo shouted angrily at me. But I ignored him and the rest of the group who were staring at me as I strode past them. I kept walking at my fast pace until I reached Shigure's house and went straight to my room, not bothering to say hi to Shigure.

KYO'S POV

Kyo fumed as he walked with the rest of them back to Shigure's house after Hana and Uo had left. What the hell is her problem? First she abducts me saying she wants company and then when I check on her she shoves me away as if I'm being nosy! Geez! What is with her!

Suddenly, Kyo remembered the look on Fury's face. It had looked as if she was remembering something from her distant past. Maybe she was reliving a bad memory. Kyo didn't dismiss that thought, considering the night when she had had those nightmares.

After another minute of walking they reached Shigure's house and walked inside. "We're home!" Tohru shouted cheerfully.

"Ah if it isn't my little flower!" Shigure said fluttering out of his study. He looked around and asked, "Where's Fury?"

They all shrugged and when they heard a stomp from the above floor, they knew it was Fury telling them she was here. Shigure sweat-dropped and said, "She must have crept in without me noticing."

Suddenly the front door opened and Hatori stepped inside with a briefcase. He quickly took off his shoes, said a short hello and set himself up at the table in the dining room.

"Hey there Hari." Shigure said sitting down across from him, while Yuki and Kyo took a seat at the table as well. Tohru bustled around in the kitchen making refreshments and tea.

"Where's Fury?" Hatori asked after he had settled the papers around himself into some sort of cohesive order.

"She's upstairs." Kyo replied before anyone else had the chance.

"Please get her immediately. I need to speak to her immediately." Hatori said.

"About what?" Fury asked from the doorway, making everyone jump up in surprise at how quietly she had arrived. She was leaning against the doorframe, and had put on a pair of calf-length black boots with tight fitting black pants and a black tank top. She had swept her long hair up into a ponytail with some pieces hanging down to frame her face. She looks like she's ready to go out on a covert mission or something.

"I've found out where they are. Your family that is." Hatori said simply.

Fury strode to the table and sat down. "Tell me. Tell me everything you know." With a nod, Hatori proceeded to tell her what he had found.
