Chapter 11

"Shigure would you stop pestering Miss Honda already?" Yuki said walking in the kitchen. He looked at Shigure to find him actually have a frightened face. "Shigure what is it?" Yuki asked.

"Yuki, She doesn't rememeber anything." Shigure said.

"Remember anything? What doesn't she rememeber?!" Yuki asked worried.

"Everything. She doesn't rememeber anything that happened at the cave." He said.

"Cave? What cave?" Tohru asked.

"Miss Honda, you really don't remember the cave and meeting the last two zodiac members?" Yuki asked.

"Last two zodiac memebers? I met them!" She said. "Oh my gosh and I don't remember! Must remember, must remember!" Tohru ran around looking for traces of them.

"She really doesn't rememeber anything does she?" Yuki said looking at Shigure. Shigure had a worried face and he wasn't even trying to hide it.

"Shigure, you don't think, that he did it do you?" Yuki asked.

"No, I don't think he did. Hatori won't listen to Akito when it comes to that and Akito doesn't have that kind of power on his own."

"Then what happened?" Yuki asked.

"It seems like she has a mild amnesia." Hatori said from behind them. They jumped.

"Hatori, don't scare us like that!" Yuki said.

"Yes, she may not rememeber anything that happened but it seems that she isn't suffering from it so I don't think it might even be amnesia."

"Maybe she has a split personality." Momiji suggested out of nowhere.

They all looked at Tohru, she was acting her normal self.

"She seems fine. Maybe we shouldn't worry." Shigure said.

'Maybe you should worry.' A voice appeared in Yuki and Shigure's heads.

"Who said that?" Yuki asked looking around the kitchen.

'Don't you rememebr me?' The voice asked.

Yuki and Shigure thought for a moment when it hit them at the same time. "Aya?!" The asked confused.

'That's right. I am in your minds now. Until Tohru takes over Akito's spot and lifts the curse, I can not leave this world to go to the next.'

"Oh Aya!" Shigure said thinking of the pretty woman he saw in the cave.

"Haven't you had enough of that Shigure?" Hatori asked.

"What are you talking about?" Shigure answered.

"Is there anyway you can materialize so it won't seem like we're crzy people, talking to ourselves?" Yuki asked.

'Yes, I can materialize but, its hard for me to do. It requires a lot of strength for me to do that and right now I don't have that kind of strength. It is better if I materialize when you guys really need me.'

"And you don't think we need you right now?!" Kyo busted into the kitchen breathing hard.

'What do you mean by that Kyo?' Aya asked.

"Go look for yourself!" He yelled.

'How can-'

"Tap into my energy. I got a lot to spare today." He said. Aya did as she was told and materialized a minute later. Momiji fell back.

"W-wh-who is s-sh-she?!" He asked frightened that she had appeared out of nowhere.

"She's the girl we were talking to." Yuki said smiling. Yuki, Shigure, Kyo, and Aya went into the other room to find Tohru about to yell in frustration. Luckily, Kyo covered her mouth before she did. Then she just looked at him like she didn't know where that came from and went on searching.

"That is pretty extreme for Tohru." Shigure said. "After all, that is something we'd expect Kyo to do, but Tohru."

"I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that remark." Kyo said angrily.

"I do agree, something is wrong with Miss Honda." Yuki said trying to figure it out.

"This isn't that extreme." Aya said. All three of them looked at her. They surrounded her. She felt like a mouse in a corner. "BACK OFF!" She yelled. They all inched away from her. "I'm telling you, this is not that extreme, but it is something you should worry about."

"Its not extreme but we should worry about it?! What the hell woman! Make up your mind!" Kyo yelled. Yep, he still had a lot of energy.

"The only reason you should worry is because of what Momiji said."

"What Momiji said?" Yuki thought back. Yuki and Shigure gasped. They looked at each other, then at Aya, and then at Tohru.

In unison they said, "She has a split personality?!" Aya nodded.

Kyo's mouth dropped to the floor.

"She has a split personality?! What the-! How the-! When did this happen?!" He asked. He was lost for words.

"She's always had a split personality, she was always the next to take over, but the other side of her did not awaken until the day at the cave." Aya said trying to look very smart. She had a pair of good looking glasses on her face that made her look good but smart at the same time. She kept adjusting them with one arm behind her back. When she finished adjusting them the other arm joined the one in the back. She adjusted them quickly. "This does mean that one side will have to prevail and I'm not sure which side will."

"What are you talking about?! And stop trying to act so damn smart!" Kyo yelled.

"Didn't she seem different to any of you? More brave prehaps? More out-going?" She asked trying to make a point. They all thought back. Kyo was the first to speak.

"I was with her the longest and she didn't seem different until we all merged with her and we broke out of the maze cave."

"She came to me when I was unconcious. She seemed a little like herself but she seemed so grown up at the same time, or something. She just seemed different." Yuki said. "Then when I woke up, she didn't seem like she rememebered any of it." He finished.

"The only time I saw Tohru was when you guys returned. She definitely didn't seem herself then. She seemed way different then I had rememebered. She walked right up to Akito, even got shot, and she still didn't freak out or anything once. That was definitely not Tohru." Shigure said. The all nodded their heads in agreement.

"But, the question is, how can we save her and not let the other side win against her?" Yuki asked sadly.

"There is a way she can prevail but you guys must be by her side the whole time." Aya said. Ayame popped up out of nowhere and scared the crap out of the four of them.

"Hello!" He said to Aya. Her glasses dropped to the floor. Shigure picked them up. "I'm so sorry but I don't think we've met!" He said. (A/N I just rememebered that I never gave a discription of Aya before so I'm doing this now. Tee Hee. Can you guess who she resembles?)

"Brother, what are you doing here?" Yuki asked Ayame.

"Huh? Well I came to talk to Hatori when I saw this lovely princess over here." Ayame was looking at Aya. Aya had long silver hair that she kept up in a high, braided ponytail. She had pretty violet eyes that always caught the light's rays. Her eyes always sparkled. Even when it was dark. When she smiled the room would seem to light up. (A/N sorta like Tohru...) She was wearing clothes from their modern time. She was wearing a uniform from their school and a pull over vest. She looked as young as Momiji and Haru. Ayame smiled at her. Shigure stepped in.

"Sorry, she's already claimed." Shigure said running his hand through his hair.

"But Shigure, I always thought I was your number one!" Ayame said sadly. Shigure walked over to him and placed his hands on his shoulders.

"And you always will be." He said looking into his eyes. His eyes sparkled.

"Really? Shigure?" Ayame asked.

"Yes!" They both lifted a hand making the thumbs up sign.

"Huh?" Aya said.

"Don't ask. Its just weirdos being weird." Yuki and Kyo said together turning her around to face away from them. She struggled to break free.

"Wait a second!" She turned around and headed back to Shigure and Ayame. She looked real close at Ayame's face. She looked into his eyes as if she saw something behind them. "Ayame? Is that you?" She asked.

"How do you know his name?" Yuki asked.

"Aya?" Ayame asked. She smiled showing her teeth and they went into a dance of celebration. The others just simply watched.

"Do either of you have any idea what's going on?" Kyo asked.

"Not a clue." They said in unison.
