Chapter 12
"Erm... Okaa-san...Otou-san... what bring you here?" Tohru asked as she poured tea for her parents.
"We came just to see you my dear... but your Ojii-san from the Asakura side wanted me to pass you this too..." Mikihisa said, passing a long package to Tohru.
"What's this? Can I open it now?" Tohru said, inspecting the long package carefully.
"Sure... open it! Go on..." Keiko replied, watching her daughter rip open the package to see a kanata.
"Oh..." Tohru eyes widened as she saw kanata.
"Is... isn't that Yohmei-sama's prized kanata?" Tamao realised that she had seen the kanata in the Asakura household.
"Yes it is, Tamao..." Mikihisa said, passing Tohru a letter, "This came with it too, Tohru..."
"Thanks, Otou-san..." Tohru took the letter from her father a begen reading the letter. It was from her grandfather.
Dear Tohru,
I've sent you this prized kanata of mine to aid you. Now you've come into the open with your brother, you'll need this to protect yourself from Hao. Along with this kanata, I've also sent another sprit to protect you. You would be able to awaken if you offer your own blood to it, as it would decide to either your worthy for it to protect you or not, Tohru, I know the part about offering blood thing is not very nice... but I did the same when I got the sprit... good luck then...
Yohmei Asakura.
"Dad? Could you help me say thank You to Ojii-san?" Tohru asked as her hand tightened around the kanata.
"Sure... Erm... Tohru" Her father answered.
"It's been nearly ten years since we last saw each other... oh Tohru... I'm so sorry we had to give you away..." Keiko sobbed, breaking down finally.
"Okaa-san... it's okay... you and Otou-san didn't mean to do it..." Tohru said, patting the older woman's back.
"What do we have here?" A voice came from the window.
"Hao... What are you doing here!" Mihikisa shouted at his other son.
"Oh... I'm simply coming for our family reunion... hah..." Hao said, sitting down on the window ledge.
"Get out of here now..." Anna said, standing up, glaring at Hao.
"OH... not very friendly... now... I'm just going to ask Tohru a simple question..." Hao said, turning to Tohru, "Are u going to give me... well... the necklace..?"
"NEVER! I'LL NEVER GIVE IT TO A BASTARD LIKE YOU!" Tohru yelled.
"WE'VE GOT TO GO! YOU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" Kyo yelled into the room, flustered.
"Guess my visit here's long overdued... well... must be going... but this won't be the last time you see me... it won't be here either..." Hao said, before jumping out onto the waiting Sprit Of Fire, leaving the people in the room alone.
"Tohru! We've got to go! THE Onsen's on fire!" Kyo said, grabbing Tohru's arm n pulled her out of the room,
"Keiko, looks like our daughter's got herself a nice guy too..." Mikihisa said, leaving the room, which had already started to catch fire from its surroundings, hand in hand with his wife,
"ANNA! Let's go!" Yoh said, pulling Anna out of the room, leaving Tamao alone, coughing from the smoke produced.
"Korff... korff... Anna-chan... Yoh-kun... wait for me..." Tamao said, before blacking out coughing badly.
"Yoh... where's Tamao?" Anna asked looking around her, as they stepped outside the onsen, which is on fire.
"She was behind us... wait... where's she?" Yoh said.
"Yoh! Where's Tamao? Mikihisa said she was with you when he left the room!" Horo Horo rushed towards the couple looking flustered.
"I don't know! Isn't she with the rest?" Yoh said, gesturing to the other groups of people clustered around. The fire had spread to the neighbouring houses.
"I've asked every one! She's not here... no... she's not!" Horo Horo said, looking at the onsen which was on fire, before rushing in with Kororo.
"HORO! IT"S TOO DANGEROUS! BE CAREFUL!" Yoh yelled after him, attempting to follow Horo Horo in, but was held back by Anna.
"Let him go... he needs to realise who's in his heart... He's a ice Shaman... he won't come to harm..." Anna said, hugging Yoh.
Yoh felt something in his heart stir, he hugged Anna back, knowing that she meant well.
"TAMAO! ARE YOU IN HERE?" Horo Horo yelled. He had used his oversoul to prevent the flames to burn him.
"kroff... Horo-chan..." A weak voice started from under the debris.
"TAMAO!" Horo Horo rushed over to where he heard the voice.
"Horo Horo-chan..." Tamao said, stretching out her hand to reach Horo Horo.
"Tamao... Come on... can you stand up?" Horo Horo asked Tamao, who was shivering in pain. A burning wooden plank had fallen onto her right foot, which was bleeading badly.
"Argh..." Horo horo had been burnt by the wooden plank as he removed the plank from Tamao's leg.
"Endure it, Tamao... Come on... get on my back... I'll carry you out..." Horo Horo urged, bending down a little to allow Tamao to clamber onto his back.
"Tamao! The building is collapsing!" Knochi said, anxious as he looked at Tamao's leg.
"Let's hurry..." Horo Horo said, sweating badly, from the heat, "Kororo.."
"ONI-CHAN!" Pirika yelled, throwing her arms around Horo Horo, as they left in time to duck n avoid the flying chips of debris.
"Pirika... let me go... I've got to put Tamao down... get Faust... She's hurt..." Horo Horo said, putting Tamao down.
"okay..." Pirika rushed away to get Faust, allowing space to let Tamao sit on the floor, checking her injured leg.
"Horo Horo, would you please move away? You're not allowing me to have a closer look at Tamao's leg..." Hatori said, pulling out a syringe filled with morphine
"Hai..." Horo Horo obeyed, "Why are you the one here?"
"Faust's looking at Ren... Ren got a terrible gash at the chest, trying to get Pitika out..." Hatori said, injecting the morphine into tamao's leg.
"Well... At least no one's injured too badly... even Ren's injury will heal..." Yoh said, as the whole group settled down at the main house of the Sohmas, in Hatori's house. The Onsen had been burnt down right to the ground, only ashes were left, so they decided to go to the main Sohma House before making decisions.
"Make yourself comfortable... well... shigure and Ayame said they could have some of you stay over at their place... and I could also have some of you shamans stay over here..." Hatori said, sitting down beside Momiji.
"Ha! Aya and me have decided on who to be staying at our place!" Shigure sat down beside Hatori n placed three slips of paper on the floor, "Ryu, Chocolove and Jun would be staying with Aya and Mine at the apartment above Aya's shop! Mine's Aya employee by the way... Anna. Yoh, Tamao, Pirika, Ren and Horo horo would be living with Kyo, Yuki, Tohru and Moi! That leaves Faust, who would be staying at the main house to help Ha with Akito! Everyone okay?"
"whatever..." came the overall reply. Everyone had been living the onsen for a near 2 years now, and everyone was very sad to see it burn down without any warning. Ren had contractors at the burnt house with Mikihisa and keiko to rebuild the onsen, So if any friends of the Shamans arrived there, they would be brought to the Sohmas.
"alrighty... let's go!" Aya said, leaving with Ryu, chocolove and Jun anfd their sprits.
"Well, since they've gone... we'll go too, Anna, Yoh.." Shigure said, standing up and walking to the door, with the rest following him.
