Tohru cried in her room. All Kyo could do was stare and wonder how he could make her feel better. Actually, shouldn't HE be happy? I mean, Yuki, his greatest enemy, was gone from the house, perhaps even forever. He should be doing his happy dance, for all we know. But he's not happy, because Tohru's not happy. He feels pain when she does and happiness when she does and...well, you get the point. "Um, Tohru? You didn't finish the peanut butter and jelly sandwich I made for you...there's still some left. You want me to go get you some?" Tohru stopped crying.

"No. No thank you, Kyo, but...I could sure use..." Then she looked around her room. "A backpack, 5 bottles of water, a map of the city and my cell phone. Oh, and don't forgot the money." He looked at her in surprise. Sheesh, are all boys as hopeless as him? She asked herself. "Okay, look Kyo. I have to go bring him back. But only me...if he sees you, he will definitely not come back. Oh! Um, no offense or anything, but can you throw out the sandwich you made for me? I have to tell Shigure I ate it." Tohru was not looking all that brave.

"What? I don't care what that Rat thinks, I'm coming with you! You know, you're not exactly an adventure type..." Kyo said, carefully. He didn't want to hurt her feelings. "No, even I admit to that, but I really have to go and find him by myself. I need you to distract Shigure and all that jazz. Okay, do you promise? I need to sneak out soon. Please go get my cell phone off the kitchen counter and the sandwich that needs to be thrown out...I think that's all." She said. Gee, Kyo thought to himself, this girl might not be brave but she sure is determined. Kyo went downstairs to get her cell phone. Shigure looked at him, smirking.

"Stealing Tohru's cell? Well, I thought you liked her, not determined to ruin her life."

"Oh, shut UP, Shigure. I don't like Tohru." Kyo said, wanting to keep their relationship a secret.

"So then you are determined to ruin her life?" He smiled. His hobbies must include annoying others with lame jokes and so on. Kyo rolled his eyes. He went upstairs and gave Tohru the cell phone.

"I threw the sandwich out, too, while Shigure was making fun."

"I see. I'm going to sneak out from my window—I won't be telling Shigure so please don't tell him either okay?" She asked Kyo, very politely. "I'll just buy bottled water from the store around the block..." She looked at him and said, "Don't worry, please...I'll be back in one piece!" And with that, she jumped out from the window and waved goodbye. "I swear I won't let you down!" Tohru said, thoughtfully. Kyo just stared and waved goodbye. He couldn't believe he had just let Tohru go find Yuki by herself. But she was right, Kyo needed to distract Shigure from knowing that Tohru had run away to find Yuki...oh well, he thought. I have so much trust in her, I think she'll be fine...she'll most likely take Uo-Chan and Hanajima with her. All I can do now is wait and see, he thought.
