(Here's my newest story enjoy! Oh and in continues from where the anime series left off.)
A Cursed Life
Chapter 1- Tohru's Fate
"She will forget, erase her memory Hatori." Akito spat.
"Akito, calm down, what she said was true and you know it." Hatori said sensibly.
"Huh? You disagree Hatori!" Akito said getting outraged!
"Yes, Akito, you should not be threatened by a girl." Hatori said looking down.
"Fine! You all want the wench to live huh? Well she can keep her memory but everyday, until I die, I would like to see her." Akito said smiling evilly.
"Uh!" Hatori gasped.
"Oh no, I wont beat her. I just want to talk..." Akito said calming down.
Hatori bowed and left the room to goto Shigure's house and talk with him.
"... AHAHA! And then I said... yes... yes I know!" Ayame's voice rang loud and clear through the doorway. Hatori knocked and Shigure welcomed him in happily.
Yuki, Kyo, Ayame, and Tohru were all seated around the table when Hatori came in.
"Hey Aya, look who decided to join us!" Shigure said laughing.
"Hatori!" Ayame said happily, "Come sit down with us!
"I'm here to speak with Tohru and Shigure privately Ayame, that will have to wait. Akito's orders..." Hatori said calmly.
When he said, Akito's orders, everyone quieted and looked solemn even Aya.
"Come my little flower Tohru, Hari wants to talk with us." Shigure said taking Tohru's hand and leading her into Shigure's office where he locked the door behind Hatori.
"Shigure, on Akito's orders, I'm to take her to see Akito everyday until he dies." Hatori said speaking mainly to Shigure.
"Um, excuse me, but please don't make it seem like a big deal, I'll happily come to see Akito. Maybe I can help him..." Tohru said looking down.
This story takes place in Japan; it's about a girl named Tohru Honda. Tohru has suffered many tragedies, her mother died, her father died, and yet, she still manages to smile. She used to live with her grandfather until he was remodeling his house, during that time she lived in a tent, but only for about a week. She met up with the Sohma family. Yuki Sohma was the most popular boy in her high-school, and Shigure Sohma was a writer. Kyo Sohma was a neglected high-school student. I'm not going to list every Sohma as you should know them... . Anyway, the Sohma's lived with a terrible curse, Tohru doesn't know the extent of this curse, yet... all she knows is that if a cursed Sohma is under a great deal of stress or comes in some sort of physical contact with someone of the opposite gender, (hugging, tripping on someone... etc...) they turn into a zodiac animal. Example: A girl tries to hug Yuki, if they succeed, by some freak chance, he would turn into a rat. After a random period of time they change back, but then they are completely naked. Understand? Okay. Well this story takes place in Tohru's last year of high-school. I hope you enjoy my story...
Tohru left the room smiling, allowing Shigure and Hatori to have a discussion.
"Miss Honda, what does Akito want?" Yuki asked curiously.
"Yea, tell us." Kyo said eagerly.
"Now, now boys, curiosity killed the cat, and in this case, the cat and the rat!" Ayame said happily.
Both boys glared at him. "No, no, Ayame, it's okay. Akito would just like me to be present with him for a certain time period each day until he dies..." Tohru's voice trailed off.
"That damn Akito wants what!" Kyo yelled standing up.
"Oi, stupid cat, stop pretending like you didn't hear!" Yuki said standing up also, "Miss Honda, what's for dinner tonight, maybe I can pick something from my garden for you?"
"Oh, just some Leek Stew, and Miso Soup, with some Fried Cod and Salmon for Kyo. Oh, Ayame, are you staying also?" Tohru said smiling at him. Yuki's face darkened, he and his brother weren't exactly best friends...
"Ah, yes, sweet Tohru, I think I will stay to taste some of your delicious cooking!" Ayame said dramatically, then again what doesn't he say that's dramatic.
"Okay, let me go make dinner okay? OH! I wonder if Hatori is staying?" Tohru said.
"I'll check dearest Tohru." Aya said smiling at Tohru. Slowly he got up and walked toward Shigure's office.
"Sweet Tohru would like to know if you're staying for dinner, Hari?" Ayame said loudly, making a scene out of it.
"No, Akito will want me back. I'll be going now anyway, goodbye everyone." With that Hatori walked out the door toward the Sohma Estate.
Ayame tossed his hair and began joking around with Shigure, "So, Gure, what kind of pranks have you played on Mii, your editor lately..."
That conversation went on while Tohru cooked, and Kyo practiced and Yuki picked and cleaned some strawberries.
All the time Kyo practiced the only thing he could think of was Kagura and Tohru. He thought about how similar and different the two were.
Yuki stood next to Tohru in the kitchen, and while he cleaned the strawberries he would glance at her every so often, carefully picking out every facial detail, like how smooth her face looked, and how blue her eyes were. He longed to reach out and touch her soft hair, he longed to hold her, but he controlled himself, he didn't want to turn into a zodiac animal right now.
Tohru stared at Yuki for a second, she looked at his lovely purple eyes and almost sighed, she loved Yuki, she loved Kyo, she loved all the Sohma's even Akito. She wondered why Akito requested her to be there everyday until he died, she didn't understand, but anything to help him she'd cooperate with.
"Dinner everyone." Tohru said as she set the table, and put out the food and soup and rice.
Soon everyone was finished, Aya went back to the Estate, Shigure went back into his office, Kyo went to practice and Yuki went upstairs to read. Tohru decided she should be going to sleep, it was a school day tomorrow. So she got ready and was soon asleep.
At the Estate...
"She agreed, did she? Well, I have so much to tell and teach her." Akito grinned evilly.
Hatori bowed and walked off to his room. Akito sat and laughed to himself.
