Chapter 5

Kyo was more than angry with Akito for butting into his affairs, but what if he already knew and he only going to kill him in front of her? Kyo and Yuki made their way back home to the knight's council in the west, but what Akito wanted of Tohru laid heavily on their minds.

"Kyo, there's not much we can do if he finds out, you know that right?" Kyo brushed of the question quickly.

Tohru brushed the hair out of her face as she stood up. The room was dark and musty. The air was heavy and rough. She couldn't see where she was as she felt the ways that seemed to never end and when they did, they only connected to another wall. A laugh entered the room. She gasped she turned to the sound. "Who are you?" She asked as she squinted and looked for the dark voice. She could not see anything or anyone as she scanned the room, but as the laugh reentered the room she found a sense of location.

"Miss Tohru Honda," She was confused, how did this man know her.

"Yes," She answered as she made her way toward the voice.

"Now tell me, in all honesty, why are you here?" She was confused by the question. She didn't know why she was here, but she was afraid it had to do something with Kyo. Her silence aggravated him. She suddenly was forced to the ground by the weight of the man's body. "What do you think that I am a fool?" He laughed as he grabbed her wrist and smiled. He might not see her face, but he could sense her fear all around him. "This is judgment day for the ones that think they can get away with interfering with the Sohmas. Did you think you could change him? Did you think that you make Kyo love someone like you? Well you think wrong. He doesn't love you, he doesn't even care, and it's just what he does. He makes the girl feel wanted, but it's just an act." She cried underneath him. "Don't believe me, ask the last girl he guarded? She ended up in a coma. She fell asleep because of her heart; they say it broke." He laughed wildly.

"Please," she breathed hard. "Please don't kill him."

He laughed yet again with a wicked smile as he let her go. She knew that he was only inches from her face because of the breath the licked at her lips. "Since I am the head of the council, I will not kill him, only if you promise me that you'll leave him…" She felt her heart drop as she felt that the man's lies were true; that Kyo only pretended to love her. "…and be with me." That when she didn't know what to do. She hadn't even seen this man's face, let alone know who he really is. He wanted her to be with him? But her ability to keep Kyo from dying was what made the choice even more difficult. Before she could think, she said yes. And the breath she felt on her face was gone and locked on to her lips. She couldn't kiss back, but she had to. She felt his hands underneath her. He picked her up and carried her out of the room. He walked into a room with a large bed and a window that showed the moon. He laid her on the bed and covered her up and left. She breathed deeply for a few moments, felt her heart drop, and then cried. She was with a man and she still hadn't seen his face.

Kyo saw the large castle just below in the valley. His spirits were somewhat comforted by the sight, but harden in the hatred of what they had taken. As they made there way into the valley, many villagers hollered in cheer of their arrival. The gates just beyond them were opened. They were welcomed with warm smiles and solutes from the men, which meant that Akito hadn't done anything rash. He was toying with their minds. Yuki stiffened his grasp on the reins as they pulled up next to the large castle with a white dragon statue before it. They jumped off their horses and walked inside. They didn't want to run to cause need for suspicion. The council room was empty and Akito wasn't to be found. Kyo wasn't happy at all; he didn't know what Akito was doing to Tohru.

"Some time, hasn't it." They turned, and it was the master at mind, Akito. Both, simultaneously, darkened. "No hostility is need," He smiled as he walked closer. "What brings you back to the council so soon, don't tell me you failed to protect your charge." He was purposely making them angry.

"Akito, give me…us back Princess Tohru, now!" He smiled as he turned his back.

"Why give her back when she is mine?" Kyo was confused by his response. He mind fluttered everywhere with conclusions. He couldn't have possibly. Was his finally thought as he grabbed Akito by the collar of his tassel. "She said it herself, you can even ask her. She said she wanted to be with me." Kyo couldn't believe his trickery.

"Then where is she? Let me ask her now." He demanded as Yuki grabbed his hand and let him put Akito down.

"I can't, it would be entirely rude to wake her in my quarters." He purposely told them where she was to aggravate them further so. Kyo knew something wasn't right and he was going to find out what Akito was up to.
