Heyz!

Chapter 3

Yuki knocked on the door of an average looking house. A young boy emerged from behind the door and stared up at him.

"Who are you?" the boy asked without much interest.

"I'm Yuki Sohma. I'm here to see Hanajima."

"I see. I'll be right back. Please wait here."

He allowed Yuki to pass him as he closed the door. He ushered Yuki to a chair and disappeared up the stairs and Yuki was alone. He looked at all of the pictures around him Hanajima and Megumi were caught smiling a few times with their happy looking parents.

Megumi knocked on his sister's door and waited for a reply.

"Come in," Hana answered.

Hana sat on her bed looking a little stunned when Megumi said," Yuki Sohma is downstairs."

Hana nodded and followed Megumi back to Yuki.

"Why are you here?" Hana asked in her usual tone.

"Tohru is in love with a dangerous man. This man has caused almost everyone in my family chaos and sadness. I'm afraid that he'll do the same to Tohru. Would you do something to stop her?" Yuki requested.

Hana sat on the couch and seemed untouched by the news, as if she already new everything. Yuki held his breath waiting for her to respond.

"How did he do that? For me to help you or even consider it I need to know how. I will not destroy my best friend's heart on a hunch. Your waves, they're telling me that you are heartbroken. This can be an act of anger or revenge to ruin someone else's relationship," Hana continued her thoughts aloud.

Yuki knew that Hana was right. Tohru was his only sort of comfort that he had in a long time. He fell in love with her; from her smile to the warmness of her heart. She taught him to forgive and to express himself a little more. Now he wondered if at his own expense should he reveal the Sohma family secret, the cursed life that he was forced to live everyday. Yuki felt a new feeling looking at Hana. Perhaps he was too immature to know what love was, for he thought he was falling for Hana. But, that was impossible he was in love with Tohru. Now he had mixed feelings and he just began to frustrate himself.

"Chaos. Now you're in love with two people and you don't know what to think anymore," Hana read. "Now is a good time I think. This may cheer you up."

Yuki looked interested in what Hana had to say now.

"I know that you're in love with Tohru… But, I couldn't help but notice that your waves are among the most romantic in our school. Your waves tell me that your love is pure so… tell me how this man is horrible."

"You'll help me?"

"Maybe."

Hana looked at him and she waited.

"The man is the head of my family and he is very scary. However, Tohru's kindness caused them both to love each other. I'm afraid that if they go on like this together he may hurt her. His name is Akito and he's a very angry person, anger controls him and if he gets out of control then…"

"I see, I'll be there as soon as I can."

Hana bid Yuki farewell at the door and Yuki continued down the street and onto the subway.

"You don't trust me do you? Taking your precious Tohru away? She certainly does seem to like me, that ugly girl," Akito's voice whispered in Yuki's ear.

Yuki spun around and looked at Akito and made a frightened face as Akito sneered at him. Yuki seemed confused at how he could love and kiss her and have sex with Tohru at one minute and hate her the next.

"Tohru is very disgusting isn't she?" Akito went on.

"No, she's very cute," Yuki stammered, looking down.

"What was that? Are you disagreeing with me?" Akito snarled.

The train stopped and Akito pushed him out the door and against a column. He looked like a murderer and then he looked sad.

"What's going on?" Akito asked.

Yuki looked bewildered and nudged Akito off. Akito put a hand to his forehead and shook his head.

"He tried to disagree with you. He wants to take Tohru away from you," Akito's alter- ego growled in his head.

"No, he can't I won't let him take my Tohru away from me!" Akito shouted in rage and shoved Yuki and he bumped into a woman and took rat form.

The woman watched as the little mouse fell onto the tracks she looked afraid and screamed, "Yuki!" The train came close and her eyes widened.

Yuki looked at her and the track and reached into her bag. She snatched a long ribbon and threw the ribbon. It wrapped around Yuki's tiny stomach and she reeled him in. The next thing he knew he was in a purse next to some lipstick and on top of tissues. Everyone stared at the woman and she ran off.

"Are you okay?" she asked once they were out of the subway.

"Yeah, thanks," Yuki said as he lay in her lap.

"No problem. So… how's Kyo?"

"He's upset, Uo."

"I guess it was kinda sudden that I broke up with him but, I didn't want to hurt him anymore.

Yuki took off with his clothes and ran behind a tree.

"Go on."

"I'm leaving and I thought that if I hurt him he wouldn't come after me. I don't want him hurt."

"Why don't you take him with you? When are you leaving?"

"Once our senior year is finished."

"Take him with you," Yuki demanded.

"I can't. I'm leaving because… because," Uo tired before she broke into tears. "Because I'm getting married. My dad decided it when my mom wasn't with us anymore, he thought that without a mother's love I wouldn't know how to love someone else or something stupid like that."

"Run away," Yuki demanded. "Kyo will suffer the fate of being the cat and with you gone he would suffer even more."

Yuki had no idea why he was saying these things. He was probably saying that because secretly that's what he wanted to do with Tohru for so long. Yuki wanted someone to live out what he had wanted for so long. Uo looked suddenly relieved with Yuki's words.

"I will. I'll take Kyo and I'll run away! Thank you so much!"

Kyo opened the door and Hana stood there with her usual unemotional face.

"I'm here to see Tohru," she explained and Kyo pointed out that she was upstairs in her room putting away laundry.

Tohru greeted her with her usual pleasing smile and she invited her to sit on the bed but Hana refuse. She looked like she had something heavy on her mind.

"Tohru, your new boyfriend may not be what he appears."

Tohru's smile faded and she looked confused.

"How did you know that I was dating someone?"

"Your romantic waves were excessive, I could feel them from downstairs," Hana covered up, thinking that Yuki may not want to be revealed.

"Oh, well he's really nice so you have nothing to worry about."

"Tohru, people aren't always what they appear to be. I don't want you hurt," Hana pushed.

"I won't get hurt. Don't worry about me. Mom always said that you should give people a chance. When I gave Akito a chance he turned out to be one of the nicest people in the world."

Hana had a look of shock and she slowly turned her head towards the bedroom door.

"Hana?" Tohru called from what seemed like a distant place in Hana's mind.

"Something very evil has entered this house. Tohru stay behind me."

Akito's head poked in with his sadistic smile.

"Akito!"

"Akito? Do not come near her!" Hana demanded.

"Why not? She's my girlfriend, I love her," he sneered.

"Go away!" Hana persisted.

Tohru was still bewildered and watched an argument start.

"Um… Hana it's okay," Tohru insisted.

"No, his waves are impure he intends to hurt you."

"Silence you pathetic human being! How dare you try to rise up against me. For this you will suffer. I tried to be nice and patient but, apparenetly I'm not getting through to you. Waves? You think you know me by reading 'waves'? In this house I am God! If you will be involved with anyone in this house then you obey me! Now, move, wench!" Akito shouted.

Kyo rushed upstairs and grabbed Akito before he could lunge at Hana. Akito struggled within Kyo's grip and slammed Kyo into the wall trying to get him off. Hana kept Tohru close to the wall and had her arms spread out and she struggled to stand her ground as Tohru fought against Hana to get to Akito. Akito stared around the room and spotted the perfect thing to get Kyo off his back. He moved slowly towards Tohru's desk and thrust the scissors into Kyo's hand. Kyo growled in pain but still held on, Akito grabbed Kyo's weakened hand and threw him over and into the wall. Kyo slid to the ground and lay there. Akito's anger drove him to grab Kyo by the collar and drag him down the stairs. Tohru and Hana winced at the crashes and went downstairs cautiously and watched Kyo thrash around as Akito kept coming at him and threw things in his direction. After about three minutes Kyo fell to the ground once more with the sound of snapping bones his arm lay limply at his side, bent in two abnormal directions. His face was bruising and scratched, a pool of blood melted underneath his head and Tohru and Hana were at his side in a second and Akito now turned towards them. Hana hugged Tohru and Akito sneered at them and his eyes were completely meticulous and none of the Akito she loved was left, she knew it now.

Wow, I really never thought that this story would go so far and to think it would be a one-shot… Well, how well am I dragging it out? R&R plz! No flames! Thanks, greatly appreciated!
