Yuki and Tohru headed up the snow tunnel, closely followed by Kagura, the three crawled for what seemed like forever. Finally, they could see some light from the top. Yuki pulled himself up and helped Tohru and Kagura up into the open, a bright sun reached them.

"Kagura, why didn't you just dig a tunnel straight down to the door, instead at starting at the Sohma estate?" Yuki asked.

"Hmm, I didn't think of that," Kagura stared blankly at the main gates, and saw a fainted Kyo in his cat form in front of it, "Kyo,"

"Oh, I see he didn't quite make it before he collapsed," Yuki said.

"He must be cold, let's take him inside, we can take him to Shishou's place, he can rest there," Tohru suggested.

"I'll stay with him there," Kagura offered.

"No, Shishou will probably be home, so he can watch him, we need you to show us where stuff had been happening," Yuki explained.

"Okay then," Kagura looked slightly down. Kagura picked up Kyo and carried him while Yuki opened the gate. Tohru walked beside Yuki.

Meanwhile

Shigure walked slowly to Hatori's house, with Ayame in a firm grip at his side. Shigure carefully opened the door and saw Hatori sitting at his desk, frantically writing things down.

"Hatori," Shigure called

"Oh, you came to play with me today, did you bring a friend?" Hatori asked in a child like voice.

"Hatori, what are you talking about, what's with you?" Shigure asked.

"I can't play right now, because I have to finish my homework," Hatori told Shigure.

"What homework, what are you doing?" Shigure looked at Hatori.

"Did you finish your homework already, you can help me," Hatori said to Shigure.

"What homework, Hatori, your finished with school," Shigure told Hatori.

"Did you hear about the new student, she is an exchange student, all the way from Hong Kong, her name is Tsumako," Hatori told Shigure. At that moment, Hatori began grasping his head and yelling, "Go away, get out of my head."

"Hatori, wake up," Ayame yelled, the snake had woken up from his faint.

"Help," Hatori gasped, as he fainted.

"Hatori, Hatori, please wake up," Ayame looked at Shigure, who looked outside the office. Shigure gasped, as he saw Rin's limp body slouched against the neighbouring building. Ayame ran out to her and picked her up, and brought her inside.

"Her head, it was hit by something, look at the bump," Ayame carefully set Rin on the ground beside Hatori's body.

"If they get to weak, they will transform," Shigure warned Ayame.

"I know that, we have to get help," for once, Ayame looked scared.

"What can we do about it, neither of us have a degree in medics, and besides, if we call in another doctor, and the transform, I have a feeling that Hatori isn't quite up to erasing someone's memories!" Shigure yelled.

"I think we should grab someone to look after these two, we should help Yuki, Tohru and Kagura," Ayame said in a deep breath.

"Yeh but who could help us?" Shigure asked.

"Does Ritsu carry a cell phone?" Ayame asked.

"I think he does, let me check my address book," Shigure pulled out a book from his robes, "Yes he does, dial this number," Shigure showed Ayame the number. Ayame pulled out his own cell phone and dialled Ritsu's number.

"Hello," Ritsu answered on the other end.

"Ritsu, where are you right now, we need your help," Ayame told Ritsu.

"I'm shopping for a new dress," Ritsu told Ayame.

"Listen to me Ritsu, we need your help, I'll give you a dress free of charge if you come and help us," Ayame explained.

"Us?" Ritsu asked.

"Oh, me and Shigure," Ayame said.

"Okay, where are you," Ritsu asked.

"Were at Hatori's house, come as quickly as possible!" Ayame emphasized.

"Okay Bye," Ritsu said.

"Bye," said Ayame.

Meanwhile

"I'll look after Kyo while you are looking around," Shishou held the fainted cat.

"Okay then you Shishou," Kagura bowed her head.

"Good bye Shishou, look after Kyo," Tohru waved. Tohru lead the way out, followed closely by Yuki and Kagura.

"Where should we start looking," Tohru asked.
