Tohru smiled. "I'm glad Kyou-kun. I don't know what I would do if I lost you again."
"If you lost me?" Now it was Kyou's turn to look confused.
Tohru blushed slightly, "Well, it's just that, when you turned into ... your other form it was like you became a totally different person. It was like you weren't Kyou anymore, like you were lost. And that scared me most of all."
The redhead gave her a little smile, "I promise I wont leave you." Kyou looked a little flustered, he continued on, "I'll always be here so don't worry!"
Kyou gave Tohru a hearty pat on the back. Maybe a little too hard... Tohru began to slide forward. "Uhhh, Kyou-kun?"
"... Well, of course, I wont ALWAYS be here. I have to go to school and stuff...Why do you always have to say such stupid things around her?" Kyou was lost in his thoughts and not paying attention to the girl beside him.
"Kyou-kun!" To keep herself from falling off the roof she grabbed onto Kyou's wrist.
Shigure really was right when he said cat-like reflexes didn't apply to Kyou. Even with all that extra training he still hadn't been able to beat Yuki, and now the redhead seemed to be moving in slow motion, like when they replayed a particularly awesome, or insanely stupid, move in football. Kyou was sure he fell into the insanely stupid category right now. Frame by frame he watched as Tohru's grip on his wrist loosened. Desperately, her hold on he boy was now centered on the only thing keeping her from falling off the roof; those beads. Fear raced through her. As fast as he could, Kyou reached with his other hand to grab Tohru, afraid that any sudden movements with his left hand would cause the girl to fall, but it was too late. The bracelet, that was the only thing that had kept the vengeful spirit of the cat at bay for generations, broke.
"KYOU!" Tohru screamed as she fell off the roof, those black and white beads tumbling after her.
Moments later, a soft thud rang out, pounding in Kyou's ears. Kyou was in shock... he let her fall. How could he let her fall! HOW COULD HE LET HER FALL! Kyou scrambled to the edge of the roof. He peered down and saw Tohru lying there.
Luckily, Tohru had fallen on the large bushes beside the house and didn't appear to be to damaged. In fact; she wasn't even unconscious. Her eye's were wide open; she was also in shock.
Scattered around her were the twelve beads of the bracelet. Kyou stared at them in shock. His wrist had never felt so naked. Sighing, he sat back and waited for the impending and this time permanent transformation.
XXXX
DUN DUN DUN! Will Kyou's transformation be unreversable this time? Will the weight of his newly transformed body finally crush shigure's house once and for all? Will I ever get a life outside of anime? Tune in, same bat place, same bat time...
