Broken
He had never felt this bad before. All he wanted to do was to get back to bed. As much as he wanted to know what had just happened, he was too tired to care. Tohru just stared at him, confusion written all over her face. Why hadn't he transformed? Did it have something to do with him being sick? But that wouldn't prevent him from transforming; at least it never stopped him before.
Shigure was the first one to move. He walked over to Yuki and picked him up. He turned back to Kyo who was still too shocked to move.
"Call Hatori." He ordered. Kyo came to reality.
"What? But why do I"
"Do it already." Shigure turned and headed upstairs. Kyo slumped back into the kitchen. Tohru got to her feet and hurried after Shigure.
Kyo placed the tray of soup down and went for the phone. Just as he was about to pick up the receiver, the phone rang. Curiously he answered it.
"Hello"
"I need to speak to Shigure." It was Hatori on the other end.
"He just told me to call you." "Oh really?" He said in such a tone as though he already knew what was going on.
"Yeah, that sissy rat's sick." He figured it was just a fluke that he hadn't transformed so what was the point of telling Hatori.
"Has he transformed yet?" "No." Kyo wasn't expecting him to ask that.
"Alright, I'll be over in awhile." He hung up.
Shigure came back into the kitchen as he got off the phone.
"Well?" He asked.
"He's coming. For some reason he seemed to already know what was going on." Kyo explained.
"I wonder what happened with the pregnancy." Shigure thought out loud. "And why Yuki didn't transform"
"Well I doubt it means anything's changed. I don't feel any different." Kyo hissed. Tohru came back into the kitchen to get the soup.
"I don't know if that means anything." Shigure answered Kyo, Tohru looked over at them. Shigure walked her way and smiled at her.
"There's only one way to find out if anything's changed." He stated and hugged her. After all the smoke cleared Shigure was sitting on the floor, transformed.
"Oh, that's not fair." He pouted.
"Stupid dog." Kyo muttered.
"So what do you think it is then?" Tohru knelt down to him.
"Well it could have just been a one time thing...or." "Or what?" She asked impatiently.
"Nothing, it's probably just a fluke. No big deal. You should bring him his soup before it gets cold. She nodded and left the kitchen with the tray.
Shigure was about to go to his room when Kyo stopped him.
"Hey." He turned, glaring in Shigure's direction.
"Did you need something?" He asked.
"Or what else? There's something you're not telling her." He stated.
"Why are you always so suspicious? That's not healthy"
"You're about to find out what unhealthy looks like, now tell me what's going on? You're not getting out of this one." Kyo clenched his fists. Shigure backed away and dropped his ears.
"Can't I go change back first before you start threatening?" He asked. Kyo let out a frustrated sigh.
"Hurry up." He grumbled.
