Chapter 3

"No please don't fight," Tohru begged as she looked at Kyo and Yuki.

The man in a wolf's mask laughed. "Yeah listen to the girl boys, if you know what's good for you." The other two men laughed too, as they pulled out long daggers that were attached to their arms.

Kyo and Yuki dodged the men's attacks. They grunted as they made the men fall backwards. One dodged Yuki and Kyo, holding them both back with each of his daggers. The other man threw his daggers at Yuki and Kyo; hitting them in the shoulders. They both fell to the ground in pain. But that wasn't going to stop them. Tohru gasped as she started toward them, but the two men jumped in front of her.

"You're coming..." Both the men started to say in unison, but two swords shown through their stomachs. They both fell back on the ground, holding their gut painfully. The man masked, grunted in defeat as he left the area. Tohru walked up to Kyo and Yuki, seeing their wounds started to make her cry.

"I'm so sorry," she apologized. "I didn't mean to get you two hurt." She fell to her knees. "I'm so stupid."

"No, Tohru," Yuki said as he consoled her. "We did it for you, it's our job." Tohru seemed to feel better at what Yuki had said. She stood up and looked at Kyo with sad eyes. She noticed that the dagger was near is heart. Kyo just stood there with a blank stare on his face. Tohru started to panic when he did not answer her. Yuki not willingly pick Kyo up in his arms and took him to his horse.

"Put him on my horse, I will make sure he doesn't fall off." Yuki nodded as he put Kyo on Tohru's horse. Tohru wrapped one of her arms around Kyo waist and started toward the castle quickly.

Yuki had to carry Kyo into Tohru's room quickly. Tohru told him to leave as soon as Kyo was on her bed. Tohru sat next to the bed with a bowl of water and a wet wash cloth.

"Oh God forgive my intrusion." She said as she grabbed the dagger and pulled it out as she slipped the shirt off his body. Kyo grunted in pain when she did, making Tohru have tears form in her eyes. She dipped the wash cloth in the bowl of water and gently cleansed his constantly bleeding wound.

Kyo's eyes slowly opened to find Tohru with tears in her eyes and his wound being cleansed. He jumped up, startling Tohru half to death. "I'm sorry." He apologized.

"Are you feeling any better?" She said softly. Kyo nodded as he laid back down. His eyes squinted in pain as she tended his wound.

"Can you sit up for me?" Tohru asked quietly.

Kyo sat up and Tohru started to wrap his chest with the white bandage. She carefully tied a not at both ends and gave him back his shirt. "There all better, now I must go to Yuki and tend his wound." She turned from Kyo, but his hand grabbed hers and pulled her back.

"Want to say.........thank you." He said as he let go of her hand quickly. Tohru smiled her goofy smile and left the room. She quietly walked into Yuki's. He was fast asleep. Tohru sighed when she noticed that hand tended his own wound, it was bandaged and everything already. She smiled and left the room.

She slowly walked out the front doors of her castle and sat in the tall grass out side the castle walls. She looked at the moon and stars with grace as she dozed asleep. Kyo had suddenly noticed that Tohru hadn't come back from Yuki's room, so he silent walked over to Yuki's room and only found Yuki passed out on the bed. He started to panic. He left the castle grounds and searched hard for Tohru.

He walked in tall grass that reached his hips and he sighed in frustration; when he suddenly stumbled upon Tohru's sleeping figure. He smiled as he sat down next to her. He touched her softly, making her mumble in her sleep. He nudged her again and she slowly opened her eyes. She gasped as she sat up.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Kyo, I didn't mean to fall asleep outside." She apologized. "I didn't mean to make you worry."

Kyo nodded at her apology. "Its fine," He answered.

"That makes me feel better." Tohru sighed.

"So what are you looking at, out here?"

"The stars, I love to watch the moon and clouds float by, my mother and I use to do it all the time before she died."

"I'm sorry,"

"No don't be." She smiled. "I'm sorry about what happened to your mother and father." That made Kyo shocked as he looked at Tohru, who was watching the stars the assiduously. "I mean you've had a rough life, living with everyone mocking you because your father fell in love and broke the Knight's code. It must have been hard on you."

Kyo smiled as he turned and looked up at the sky. "I haven't had anyone say that to me before." They both turned and faced each other and smiled. Kyo felt a sudden happiness in his heart. Tohru faced him and slowly moved closer until she had rested her head on his chest. Kyo looked down with wide eyes. He knew what was happening and he knew then that he was his father's son as soon as he had wrapped his arms around her. The two embraced closely, Kyo knew then that he had done exactly what his father had done with his mother; fell in love.
