Mit: Yay! Chappy 2! Hugs to all the readers! Loove ya all! This chappy is a bit more humorous… I think it's cuz I'm in a better mood.
"Shigure…why was Shia so worried?" Tohru asked.
"Well, it has something to do with the curse," he replied. Tohru's eyes widened. "But I think it's too early to tell you everything."
"You're just doing this to build up suspense in the story, you damn dog!" Kyou shouted.
"Tsk tsk! You weren't supposed to mention that we're in a story!"
"…We're in a story?" And so, Kyou went into his room to angst, like all bishonen do when they find out that they're only a character in a story. Poor Kyou.
Meanwhile, in the streets of Tokyo…
Shia is placing 'missing' posters everywhere for her chopsticks. When suddenly, she ran across a not-so-familiar face.
"I'm not quite sure that's the best way to find a pair of chopsticks…" the boy said, in sort of a deadpan voice. She stared at him for a while. He really was quite beautiful, although you don't see many people with black and white hair…
"It…isn't? I'm sorry if it bothers you…but I haven't been in this world for a long time, so I don't really know today's customs…"
"What do you mean by that? You're from another planet or something?"
"Not exactly. Forgive me for not introducing myself. I'm Shia."
"Hatsuharu."
"So…how might I find my chopsticks?"
"You could start by looking the place you saw them last."
"But…Shigure already notified me that they were not there, and…"
"Shigure Sohma?"
"Yes! Do you know him, Haru-sama?"
"He's related to me."
"Then might you know the way back to Shigure-sama's house?"
"I don't have the best sense of direction, but I'll try."
3 days later…
"Shia-san has been gone for a while. I'm worried about her," Yuki said, his voice shaking a bit.
"Don't worry about Shia. I'm sure she'll be fine," Shigure responded.
In the woods…
"Oh my…Haru-sama, are you sure you know where we're going?" Shia worriedly asked.
"No."
A rustling from behind startled Shia a bit, causing her to cling to Haru. Haru continued walking, not paying attention to anything around him.
"So, Shia. I see you've found somebody else to cling to. You can't hide behind him forever," called a deep voice. Shia turned around, her black hair in her eyes, just because she couldn't believe it was him.
"Reeve…" was all she managed to say.
Mit: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! CLIFFY! I love doing that…
Bob: But who's Reeve?
Haru: It's a mystery…
