Megan walked into the kitchen, her hair wild. She was barely awake. It was almost as if she was sleep walking, only… kind of not.

Bam!

"Owww…what-?! where am I?" Megan had waked into a wall and then fully woke up. Kirstie was laughing her ass off.

"Shut up!" Megan yelled. She opened the fridge and found the orange juice; she grabbed a cup and then sat down at the table. She poured herself some juice and chugged it down.

"Looks like there's two people in this house who aren't awake in the morning," Kyo said as he walked in and saw Megan's hair. She glared at him and was nearly on the edge of going black.

Ding Dong!

"I'll get it," Megan groaned. She walked to the door in a daze and opened the door but when she did nearly flew back uttering a blood curdling scream.

"Hello!!!" yelled Janna. "What happened to your hair?" She added as an afterthought.

"Nothing! I just haven't brushed it yet!" Megan yelled.

"Who's at the door?" asked Shigure skipping into the hallway.

"Just the idotic Janna," Megan replied. Whack! Janna hit her upside the head.

Fast Forward

"Where's Kirstie and Kyo?" asked Megan.

"Who cares about that stupid cat?" Yuki replied coldly.

"Hmm, okay then where is Kirstie?"

"Oh, I'm not sure," said Yuki nearly laughing.

"I saw them both leave but I don't know where," Janna added.

Megan nodded and turned back to whatever she had been doing.

Kyo was sitting/laying in his usual spot on the roof facing the back yard, surprisingly Kirstie was sitting on the other side. While Kyo was thinking he heard someone mumble/sing under their breath.

"I was so happy when you smiled

Your smile breaks through the clouds of grey

Far from the sunny days that lie in sleep

Waiting with patience for the spring

When the flowers will bloom renewed again…."

It went on but most of it was muffled by the wind.

Kyo looked over the top of the roof and found Kirstie, who had been singing the song.

"Wh-what are you singing?" Kyo asked.

"Huh?! Oh you heard that?" Kirstie asked, "Megan sings it all the time and I just got it stuck in my head. I'm sorry; I didn't know you were there."

"Why would you be sorry?" he inquired.

Kyo went to the side that Kirstie was on and suddenly felt the incredible urge to ask her a completely random question that was quite out of his character, "So… what was it like for you to grow up with the curse? Shigure never talked about you."

"I doubt that he would, he was more my parents friend that anything, him and Hatori and Ayame. I don't even know how they knew my parents but they would show up every once in a while and talk with my dad," Kirstie began to cry a little, "When they died, the secret got out. See, no one outside of the immediate families of the zodiac knew, I even had to hide it from my grandparents. Naturally my family abandoned me, along with Megan and all of the others. When they died we had no where to go, I found Shigure's address among my family's old files and I sent the letter. It's almost seems like magic that I'm here now."

Kyo tilted his head and looked at her crying eyes, "Why are you crying?"

"Sorry," she wiped her eyes, "Despite everything that's happened, and Shigure's generosity, I'm still so alone."

Kyo had no idea how to act. He didn't exactly how to deal with problems like these, his own were avoided greatly.

"I uh, I wouldn't say that." He stuttered helplessly, "Megan and Janna are here and so is everyone else, and I-" he cut off there.

Kirstie had her arms around her head, her head hanging between her knees. She looked out of the corner of her eye at him and brought her head up, "Th-thanks that um, makes me feel a bit better…." Kirstie didn't want to bring up the fact that he almost said he was there for her. She guessed it probably would have made them both – feel awkward.

She started to hm the same song as before. After a while Kyo said awkwardly anyway, "Hey do you want to train? IT doesn't seem like there's anything better to do and-"

"Ah, uh-huh sure," Kirstie said now feeling much.

"Great I-" he was cut off right there because Kirstie had her head on his shoulder and a hand on his other shoulder, "Thanks Kyo, I feel like we're becoming friends."

Then she punched him in the face.

A/N: yeah okay, so here's the thing, someone sent me a review for this and said that there was no explanation for anything. I realized this and basically added that to the rest of this chapter, also she said that we were Mary Sues. This could not be farther from the truth. In fact, we probably cause the Sohmas more problems than we're worth.
