Kiki?

The next say was Sunday, If you havn't already figured that out. Sachi's first day was on a a friday and yesterday was a saturday. Yuki was on the back porch with Tohru helping her study while Kyo was kicking a soccer ball on his knee. (You know how people do those tricks.) There was a rusel in a near by bush when something, in a blur, lached onto Kyo's shoulders.

"Ugya!" he stood up straight with it still creating chaos, "What the hell!" "Are you alright Kyo-kun?" Tohru asked standing up next to the unphased Yuki. "Get it off!" Kyo looked up and there sat a small grey cat. Although it looked more along the lines of a small wolf it was not lickly that that was the case. it bit hard on Kyo's ear. "YAW!"

Sachi was outside polishing her bike. She had just enough polish left but she knew she would have to go get more soon. She sighed and whipped sweat from her forhead with her grease covered cloth smearing some onto her forhead. She was wearing tan guy shorts that ended at her mid shin and a fadded red shirt with the sleeves rolled up, her jewlery still hanging on her and her hair in a high pony tail with her bangs hanging in her face. "Damn it looks good." She walked inside when a load screach waz herd from the back. Sachi made her way and saw a little cat/wolf atop of Kyo's head.

"Hoshira!" Sachi yelled in a comanding voice. Hoshira looked up and retracted the teeth. "Good girl. Beating on Kyon-Kyon for me!" Sachi walked over and snatched her from Kyo's head. "Tht thing your's!" "She's not a thing! Her name is Hoshira, call her by it!" "whatever." Yuki tilted his head, "I take it you know her?" "From the moutain traning. I used to go off and sneek out to run with her. She would also sneek into the Main House when I was little. She's part wolf part cat. Odd combo and seems kinda impossible but...we can transform into animals. Not so odd after knowing that."

Hoshira craweled up Sachi's shoulders and planted herself on her left one. Hoshira starred to the bushes, "If your here then...Come on out Kiki." A small ( I mean like smaller then Kisa.) girl with shoulder length borwn hair, no bangs, and was weraing a tan flower dress and a green jacket that went to her knees came out of the bushes. She brushed leaves from her hair and in no time was embraced by Tohru, "Your so cute!" The girl blushed and stodd still.

When Tohru let go Kiki bowed, "I am Kiki Omana. It is a pleaser too met you Honda-san. Excuse me." She tool one more bow before running, quite fast, over to Sachi and almost tippingher over in the prosses. She leaped up, wrapped her legs around Sachi's stomach and her arms around her neck. Sachi just smiled, "You know your going to get in trouble for coming right?" The girl only looked down, "I'm sorry." "Nothing to be sorry for. And nothing to be afteiad of. I'll make sure they do nothing when we get back."

The girl smiled and hugged her tighter. "AND WHO IS THIS LITTLE SWEETY!" Shigure came onto the porch with one of those, ' Isen't taht soooo cute?' kinda looks. Kiki looked up at Shigure then buirded her head into Sachi's chest trying to hide. "See what you do!" yelled Kyo, "Even she's afraid of you!"

80808080808080800880808008808080800880808080088080808080808080808880088088808080808080880808080808808080808080808808008880


Everyone sat comterbly on the porch, minus Shigure. He went back to his ,' Dutyes as a writter.' as he had put it. Kiki sat in Sachi's lap and Hoshira sat in in Kiki's. They all sat in something that resembled a circle, "Um...it's nice to meet you Kiki-chan. I'm sorry for not interducing myself properbly earlyer. Your just so cute." Kiki blushed and smiled at Tohru, "I'm the tiger." "Eh!"

" I can tell how much you wanted to know...I'm, the tiger." Sachi patted her head, "You might notice how she might remind you of Kisa, in the way she acts and looks. You might also notice the same thing with Kuruchi and Shigure. Those are purly coincidence. Really most of the members of the Omana famliy have nothing in common, at least look waise, with eachother. There are a few though, but that is purly chance though."

Kyo glarded slightly at Sachi, "How do you know so much?" "I told you, that is none of your concern." Shigure appered int he doorway, "Someone is here to see you Tohru." "Me?" "Tohru-san!" Momiji's happy voice rang behind Shigure and in no time he was looking her over. He had on a wihte shirt and blue short shorts and his all famouse bunny bag. "How have you been Tohru-san! And where is thi-" His eyes caught Kiki, "Kisa-san?" Kiki blushed,"um..." yuki interduced them, "Momiji this is Kiki Omana. Kiki this is Momiji Sohma."

"PLEASED TO MEET YOU!" he held out his hand to shake."Hi." Kiki shook his hand, "Want to play ball?" Sachi blunk oddly, it wasen't like her to be...not so shy. It was a good thing though. "Sure!" As he went by he bowed to Sachi, "Nice to meet you." "Sachi." She gave her name, "This is Hoshira." She started patting Hoshira's head,"Now go play ball you little brat." she said jokingly. "Aren't relationships between Oma-" "Don't even start Yuki. It won't matter." "What do you mean 'It won't matter?' " questioned Kyo. "It just won't matter."

Suddenly many child's screams where herd through the area. "What the hell is that!" Kyo raged. "Calm down." Yuki said dryly, "There is a feild trip for the elementry school kids today. They asked if they could come to the woods on Sunday for a pik-nik. Shigure agreed to it." Sachi sighed, "Now we have to lisen to whinning all day. Great." Tohru smiled, "That was sweet of Gure-san." "Yeah, sweet."

In the back of her mind she knew something bad was going to happen. As if on que it all went quite, the teacher must have foudn a way to calm them down. Nothing good could come from sudden silence, it was like a bad omen. (Omens are like,'sighs.' A "bad Omen" is like a sigh that something bad is going to happen.) Yuki and Tohru went on chatting about the up coming dance. They where both on the commity.

None of this interested eaither Kyo or Sachi. They both turned their attention to the yard. Scahi watched Momiji and Kiki throwing the ball that had been left in the yard. "They sure do get along easly." Sachi randonly commented. Kyo nodded in agreement. She turned her eyes to him, noticing he too was starring at them. She raised hr eyebrow, I could have sworn that I just saw a hint of envy in those eyes. She wasn't too surprized at it though. She too envyed them for their innocences and happieness.

"You wann play ball too Kyo-kuuuun?" she offered sounding way too childish.

He snorted, "No."

"Come one. It will be fuuuun."

"No."

sigh"I'll go play with them then." She stood up and walked over to the kids joining in their game,Hoshira fallowing her. Kyo blinked, She sure is weird. Freaky at that. Sachi turned her head giving a, 'Oh realy.' look to him. Kyo shook his head, Sachi returning to her game. It was like she read my mind...There was sudden noise near the wall where the kids had been. Kiki stood almost having her back to the wall throwing the ball to Momiji , who pasted it to Sachi. A boy with brown hair and a school outfit came claiming over the wall. The kid sat there looking at them innocently catching everyone attention. He looked as if he was about to jump down when he fell off, right onto the unknowing Kiki.

POP The boy sat up shacking his head from the fall. Tohru came rushing over with Yuki and Kyo. "Thank goodness he is alright." Sachi nodded, "NOw I can do this without guilt." She picked the boy up and threw him over the wall. (Tohru: Eh! Yuki: oo and Kyo: 0-0) "What the hell do you mean, 'Without guilt!' YOur probly just killed him!" yelled Kyo. Sachi waved her hand in the air casuly, "He landed on his feet unharmed. Nothing to worry about." "How do you know!" "I do it regurly." "WHA!"

Sachi bent down and picked up the small tiger as Momiji poped up with Hoshira in his arms,"Is Kiki-chan alright!" Kiki looked up to him, "Fine." her small voice came. "I think we should get you inside." Yuki helped Tohru, who was still in shock of the boy being thrown, inside. Everyone sat inside at the table drinking water. Tohru was now holding Kiki who was purring. Momiji sat near her smiling away with Tohru. "I think I should be taking her home soon." Kiki grew suddenly sader at that.

"Don't worry, you can come back anytime. I'll make sure,when we go back, that nothing happ-" The phone rang. "I'll get it!" Tohru said. "You have Kiki, I'll get it." Sachi said as she stood. She walked into the hall and picked it up, "Sohma's, start talking." She could be herd frrom the hall. "She sure is blunt." Yuki said while turning his gaze to Kiki.

Sachi came back into the room steaming, "Who the hell do they think they are! I swear I'm going too-" She stopped mid rant. It wasn't appropriate to say infront of the child minded.( Kiki, Momiji, ...Kyo) She took Kiki from Tohru and walkd out of the room. Everyone just starred at the random act. POP Know everyone knew. Sachi and Kiki came back in, Kiki dressed. "I'll be taking her home know. I think it would be best." Tohru crushed Kiki in a bear hug, "I LOVE YOU! BYE-BYE!" Momiji waved, "Bye-bye Kiki-chan." Hoshira too gave a mew goodbye.

"Maybe one of us should come with you." Yuki suggested. "WHy would you want to do that?" "Just too keep you company. Not to mention it's safer with someone." She gave him a, 'I'll play along for now.' look. What the hell with he up too? Sachi grbbed Kyo by the cuff and dragged him to the door with Kiki behind them. "We'll be back."

Outside Sachi threw Kyo onto the back seat, "Now lisen here, I'm am going to put Kiki between us alright. If she falls off or even feels like she is, I'm going to have your ass." Kyo just looked at her, "Whateva." Sachi placed Kiki in his lap and got on herself handing her helmit to Kiki. "YOu alright back there?" She nodded and smiled throught the helmit. She started up the motor and road off. "Here we go!"

Kyo clung for dear life to Kiki. She seemed to be having the time of her life. Sachi was weaving through cars. Not illagly ,just way too fast for this scardy cat. "AAAAAAHHHHHHH! SLOW DOWN!" "Your no fun!" Sachi yelled over the rush of the wind speeding up. "WHOOO HOOO!" Many people where staring out of their cars and form the sidealks. A light a head started to turn yellow, that only ade Sachi speed up even more.

"YOUR GOING TO GET US KILLED!" Sachi feared for Kiki's life at all times but she knew how much Kiki enjoyed riding and didn't get to do it often. At the last minute the light turned red and Sachi's bike came to a screechig hult. Kyo's hair was all over and Kiki lifted the helmit off her head shacking her hair out neatly.

A lady with long dark hair rolled down her window to the right of them and talked camly, "That litle one is so cute!" She didn't seem to notice sachi's driving. "You two should be happy you have such a beautiful child." Kyo: "What!" Kiki's giggles where herd as she put the helmit back in place. Sachi smiled, "I'm affraid she isn't ours Ma'ma. She is a cute little one though." The women just smiled, "Well I'm sure you two will be geat parents some day!" Sachi tryed not to laugh and Kyo was too shooked for words. The light turned green continuing Sachi driving from hell.

She slowed her bike as the stood outside a house that reminded Kyo too well of the Sohma House. Sachi helped Kiki off and with her helmit as Kyo ranted on, "Why the hell would you let her get away with saying that!" Kiki giggled, "I thought it was funny." "There was no harm in letting her comment on Kiki. She called her cute anyway."

"That's not what I'm talking about!" "Oh, I don't see the big deal. It's not like it's true." "We arn't even old enough!" "We look it though. Now stop your whinning and stay here." "I'm not staying here! I'm going with you! I didn't come all this way and almost get killed just to sit outside." "Look, just stay here. I just want to get in and out." Without even letting him say another word the two girls walked through the two doors and out of site. "Damn." Kyo cursed. "I'm not going to sit here."

Inside Sachi walked into a open room with Kiki trailing behind her. The room had wooden floors and consisted of nothing but three people. They all wore kimonos but where hidden in shadow. "I see you came to take her home." the one in the middle stated. Their voice was unreadable. Two adults sat on eaither side of them, "You shouldn't have left Kiki-chan. YOu know what happen to the ones who do that."

Sachi sat on her feet a good ways away, Kiki behind her with her head bowed. Sachi turned her head, "HOld your head high Kiki-san." she knew being called "san" would help her confience. The one in the middle spoke yet agine, "Do you wish for her undoing? If so then keep of this act of pride." "Fuck off."

Kyo was keeping his distence from the two girls.He wasn't going to wait ouside, it was too borning out there. He fallowed them through the outside of the house until they came to a room. He peered inside to see what the hell was going on. He saw three people in the room and Sachi sitting on her feet with Kiki behind her, "DO you wish for her undoing? If so then keep this act of pride up." The middle one spoke. Sachi's replie was, "Fuck off." The one too the left of the one in the middle stood to their feet, "How da-" "Sit down. I will handel this."

They stood to their feet and advanced on Sachi, still coved in a layer of shadow consealing their identity.Sachi kept a cold face and showed no fear. "YOu know what happen to the ones who leave without permission." they said to her ,yet passed by Sachi. "It is time for your leasson."they said while raising their hand to Kiki.

She screamed in fear as they brought their hand down, but was stopped. Sachi stood with their arm in her hand, "Don't touch her. I won't back down like the others to you. I don't care who the fuck you are, you won't hurt her. Not when I'm around." She twisted their arm slightly before letting go. "You know that that will cost you."

Sachi snorted, "I don't give a shit." They one consealed by shadows struck Sachi in the face. She stood there and took it, but not even fliching. She glared into their eyes, "I won't back down." "SHUT UP!" they shouted suddenly angry. They struck her agine and agin, then finnaly stopping for breath. Sachi only had a weld and a few scuffs ,but it was more painful then itt looked. She still wouldn't back down. She knew if she backed down, they would win. She couldn't fight back though. Then they would take this out on another Omana. She couldn't let that happen eaither.

The figure gripped their hand into a fist and ran it into her stoumach. Kiki cried out and grabbed onto their other arm, "NO! sniffel I won-sniffel let you hurt Sachi-sama!sniffel" "Stupid girl." A harsh voice replaied, turning and starring into Sachi's fury filled eyes. "She is useless to this family. The only thing she is, is a curse. But I still can't let her go off and have happy life, beast must be kept on a chain leash."

Sachi walked over, her eyes only filed with fury, and picked up Kiki. "I should tuck you in huh?" "DON"T IGNOR ME!" they spun around and swipped her upside the head with their fist. Her head bobbed forward,but she ignored it, "I'm sure your tired." Sachi made her way to the oppisite side of the room that led into the house without another word.

Sachi tucked Kiki in and made her wa back to her bike. Kyo stood leaned on the driver's seat, eye's closed. It seemed like her was almost asleep.He didn't even look up. "YOu didn't think we would notice the bruises and blood?" "That was you huh? I thought I senced someone near." He kept his eyes closed as he got back on the bike, "You better clean up before we go back, you still have blood running from your nose." She gave him a look as she got back on. "Why did you do that?"

She looked back at him, "Do what?" "Take that beating." "Just because." "Because why!" She turned to the road and started up her bike smiling. Kyo gave an odd look, She jsut got beaten and she's smiling!What in hell is wrong with this women!Sachi finnaly gave her answer,"Whatever dosen't kill you, makes you stronger."
