Kyo stood there admiring how battered up this man was, and then he remembered why he had kicked this guy's ass.
"Tohru!" Kyo yelled and ran over to Tohru's side. He checked to see if she was still breathing
"She's just blacked out" Kyo said happily, sighing a breath of relief.
Kyo felt tears well up in his eyes.
'No, she's okay, don't cry' Kyo said to himself as tears of joy fell from his eyes onto Tohru.
'How am I going to get her home without transformin?!' Kyo realized that he face to face with a difficult problem.
'Well, I have to get her home' Kyo stooped lower to put one of his hands against Tohru's back, and his other under her knees.
Kyo held Tohru an arms length away, and ran to the house.
"She's shaking" Kyo said looking at Tohru. Kyo stoped and felt Tohru's cheek.
"She's freezing!" Kyo yelled. Kyo pulled pulled Tohru as close to his body as he could, and started running again.
When Kyo got to the door of the house he kiked his shoes off and started thinking of where the warmest room in the house would be.
Then he remembered! Shigure has a fireplace in his study.
Kyo walked down the hall to Shigure's study, and was about to kick the door down untill he heard Shigure speaking in the back of his head.
FLASHBACK
"Kyo, try not to destroy my house while I'm gone!" Shigure said smiling. Then left a pissed off Kyo.
END FLASHBACK
So instead of kicking the door down, he slid it open with his foot.
Kyo set Tohru down in front of the fireplace, and started to make the fire. Kyo went outside and found a small stack of chopped wood.
He took three logs off the pile, and brought them inside.
Kyo tossed the wood in the fireplace, then he took yesterdays newspaper and tore it up, then he took a match out of it's container and lit
a piece of the newspaper and then threw it into the fireplace.
Kyo went to the hall closet and got a few blankets to make Tohru more comfortable, he grabbed a pillow while he was getting these things for her.
he went back into Shigure's study, and made a bed for Tohru, the gently placed her on it and covered her up.
Kyo brushed Tohru's hair out of her face, and felt her forehead burning.
"Aww Hell! Now she has a fever!" Kyo yelled!
Kyo ran into the kitchen and got a bowl of water and a washcloth to clean Tohru up with.
Kyo dipped the washcloth in the water and gently washed the dirt off of Tohru's face and neck, her her hands and arms.
" She has bruises where that punk was touching her!" Kyo said. His eye started twitching, and he ripped the cloth to shreds.
"Control your anger!" Kyo said through clenched teeth.
Kyo went to get another washcloth to lay on Tohru's head to col her fever. When he came back into the study, Tohru was stirring.
Kyo's heart leapt, then fell when she stpped moving.
Kyo dipped the cloth in water and placed it on Tohru's
As if on cue, Tohru's eye's sprang open.
She started gasping as if she had been under water too long, and was coming up for air.
Tohru grasped her throat and Kyo saw the markings of the man. His hand prints where he had held her by the throat, Tohru's blood rose
around parts of her throat where the man had been sucking on it. And Kyo's anger grew behound what he had felt before.
Kyo clenched an unclenched his hands, and gritted his teeth. But then he looked at Tohru, and saw that she was crying, and she had hudled
herself up closer to the fire.
Kyo instantly softened, and said to Tohru in a gentle tone
"Tohru, that...man, he...he didn't...do anything did he?"
Tohru just shook her head but started to cry harder.
"Kyo," Tohru gasoed "I...I" Tohru struggled to say.
"What Tohru?" Kyo asked gently putting loving hands on Tohru's shoulders. Kyo felt Tohru cringe at the touch of his hands, Kyo also felt his heart break.
'After what happened to her tonight' Kyo thought 'Tohru will never wantto be around guys again'
"What is it Tohru?" Kyo asked again squeezing Tohru's shoulders, and trying to keep the tears from coming.
Before Kyo knew what happened, Tohru had lept into his arms and whispered to Kyo
"Kyo I know who did it!" she gasped and clung to the orange cat she was now holding.
"Who Tohru, who was it?!" Kyo yelled through clenched teeth.
"Kyo" Tohru said between gasps for air and tears streaming down her face. "It was my uncle!"
