The dark sky rumbled as a flash of lightning struck a tree. Hiro ran through the forest panting in fright. His clothes stuck to his body as the rain continued to pour from the sky. He blindly ran through the forest and came upon Shigure's house. Although he disliked the people inside, he currently had no place to go. He slowly approached the door and knocked loudly. As he stood there waiting impatiently, there was shuffling come from behind the door. The door slowly opened to reveal Tohru with a tired look upon her face. She beamed when she spotted a soaking Hiro standing by the door.
"Oh, Hiro! Come inside and I'll get you a towel," Tohru exclaimed as she grabbed by the hand and began to drag him inside.
Hiro reluctantly followed Tohru inside. Once he stepped inside, he felt warm air hit his body and face. She ushered him into the living room and ran upstairs to get a towel for him. Hiro sat down by the table and was greeted by Shigure, who was typing up his story.
"You know, Hiro… It isn't very nice running away from home. What will your mother think?" Shigure said without looking up from his work.
Hiro chose to ignore him and waited for the pounding footsteps that would get him a towel. Tohru appeared at the doorway and handed him a towel. He accepted the towel and quickly dried himself off. He gave it back to Tohru and she placed it on the floor.
"What brings you here on this rainy day, Hiro?" Tohru asked as she began to wipe away the wet trail Hiro had made.
"……."
Hiro had made a smart remark but no sounds came out of his mouth. Shigure who had witnessed the scene stopped what he was doing and put his hand on Hiro's head and felt for a temperature. Shigure gave him a worried glance and went to the phone.
"What's wrong Shigure?" Tohru asked.
"I'm just calling Hari. It appears that Hiro is sick. His forehead is very hot," Shigure replied as he dialed Hatori's number.
Tohru took Hiro by the hand and placed him on the couch. She ran upstairs and quickly came downstairs with a blanket. She draped it over Hiro and went back to cleaning up the water.
