Chapter 4: When Dragons Fly

Half on hour later Midnight lands on the enormous Honda estate. She lowers herself to the ground, thoroughly exhausted. Her rider, Rykomi, digs her spurs in and slides off leaving a bloody trail down her sides. As Midnight whimpers and growls in her pain and misery. Then Rykomi turns and stomps into the house. Her cruel mistress gone, Midnight collapses as she faints, falling to the muddy ground. Unaware that her best friends whom she has known since the day she born were running towards her, calling out her name as she descended into darkness.

"Midnight!" cries a girl with snow-white hair naturally highlighted with streaks of black. She is sobbing, tears flowing non-stop from her ice-blue cat eyes. She is kneeling beside the dragon, petting the silky white mane of her prone cousin.

The boy was petting the dragon's smooth cheeks; his hair was bright red with streaks of orange, making it look like his head was on fire. He too had tears slipping down his cheeks.

"Oh my god, my poor baby, what has she done to you?"

He opens his glowing emerald eyes when he feels the dragon stirring slightly. He smiles slightly and coos softly to her,

"That's right baby wake up, come back to us, your safe now me and Tomiki and I are here for you. Sshhhh it's going to be alright, Kiromi will take care of you."

Weary sapphire eyes open, to gaze upon their faces before pearly tears flow down her smooth scale-covered cheeks to express her sorrow and remorse. This time Tomiki speaks up,

"Midnight, you need to go back now. Suki-chan must tend to your wounds in human form. Okay?"

Midnight slowly nods her head and her cousins back up. There is poof before Tohru is seen lying on the ground, unconscious from the mental stress from changing forms.

They rush over to her, and Tomiki brushes her hand against Tohru's black and blue cheek, then over the nail marks in her neck. Her tears falling onto Tohru face, she softly whispers, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

Kiromi gently picks her up, hissing in sympathy when he sees the puddle of blood, and the state of her sides. Walking carefully, as not to jostle the unmoving body, they travel to house belonging to Suki Honda.

Tomiki pounds on the door calling out,

"Suki open up we have a victim!"

A woman with long raven black hair, and steely gray eyes, who looks to be in her late twenties. She looks around,

"Who is it this time Miki?"

Kiromi steps out of the shadows, a bloodied Tohru in his arms. Suki's eyes widen and she ushers them in eyes filled with sadness. She gestures him to set her down on the hospital bed, he does so gently as not to aggravate her wounds. Suki looks over to the worried faces, before speaking,

"I'm going to need you two to leave please, but I want a full explanation later."

The two nod sadly casting worried glances at the unconscious girl, before walking out the door. Suki takes out her supplies, and cuts off

Tohru's shirt showing the full extent of damage, 2 fractured ribs, her stomach, back and sides are covered with deep cuts that are bleeding heavily. When she starts to clean the wounds Tohru's eyes snap open and she hisses in pain. She asks in her hoarse voice

"Where am I?" she turns her head to see Suki.

"Suki!"

the woman nods her head methodically cleaning the wounds, she glances at Tohru.

"little princess… you should not be here."

Tohru laughs, before wincing and coughing, Suki frowns.

"You actually think I would come here willingly?" she asks her voice visibly sarcastic.

"No, and I need you sit up."

Suki places her hands away from the cuts and helps Tohru sit up, then begins to clean her back. She places a special ointment on her wounds, meant only for cursed members, before deftly, but gently wrapping Tohru's sides. Then she walks over to the sink get a glass of water and a painkiller before handing them to Tohru.

Meanwhile at Shigure's house

Yuki wrote a note explaining everything, while Kyo got directions to the Honda main house off the computer. They each packed a bag with 2 changes of clothes, and enough food for a couple of days, the Honda main house was half way across Japan after all. They got in the black car outside, tossed their bags in the back seat. And Yuki drove as fast as he could without breaking the speed limit, and for the first time in their lives they did not fight.
