A Fight Agansit Time
Chapter 2- A Deal Made Long Ago
"I'm sorry this has happened." Kureno says walking next to Tohru and Kyo in his rooster form.. They were walking towards the Sohma House and the streets were pretty empty, so Kureno decided to walk freely.
"Oh! There is no reason for you to be sorry it was my fault!" Tohru says. She had accidentally turned him into the rooster after he attempted to leave after telling her some rather interesting news.
"No, it was mine; I was the one whose fault it truly is." Kureno replies back. Tohru was about to complain but Kyo but in,
"It was no ones fault, forget it." He says in an annoyed tone. They were quiet for a few moments; no one knew what to say.
"I am glad I finally got to see your Zodiac form." Tohru says finally, trying to lighten the mood.
"It is a form I would have rather you not have seen." Kureno says ashamed of it.
"Oh! But it's so cute, I have been hoping to see the rooster for a long time now, I am happy to have finally seen the rooster!" Tohru says.
"This is the first time I've seen you in this form to." Kyo says looking at the ground while he walked.
"Yes, Akito prefers I not talk to the rest of the Jyuunishi, or see them." Kureno says. When he was born he was told he was going to be the one who looked after Akito, to be his servant. He had never gone behind Akito's back, until now.
"Why do you even listen to that bastered?" Kyo asked Kureno in his normal rough tone.
"Because I can not go behind his back, and even you Kyo, the cat, can not go behind him. He is the head of the family." Kyo looked to his side, he knew Kureno was right, but things were going to change. Suddenly in a puff of red smoke Kureno transformed back into his normal self.
"AH!" Tohru yells and quickly turns around as Kyo quickly gives Kureno his clothes in case anyone happened to see.
"I am sorry." Kureno says with a sigh as he pulled on the rest of his clothes and looked like nothing had happened in the first place.
"Oh it's alright, I didn't look!" Tohru says happily, turning around knowing Kureno was finished.
"You don't need to continue on with me, I can walk the rest of the way myself. Thank you Kyo, and Thank you Miss. Tohru." Kureno says and leaves in the direction the three had been heading before, towards the Main House where Akito was. Tohru and Kyo watched Kureno leave until seemingly out of sight, and then headed back towards Shigure's house. Shigure and Yuki were probably wondering where they were, it was nearing the evening hours.
"What was it that Kureno told you?" Kyo asked after a little silence. His hands were in his pockets and his eyes were upon Tohru. Her hands were together at her chest as she thought about what Kureno had told her.
'Kyo will be confined?' She thought.
"Tohru, are you alright?" Kyo asks getting closer to her, looking in her face to make sure he was heard this time.
"Huh? Oh Kyo! I'm sorry, what did you say?" She asked looking up at him suddenly.
"You look worried about something, are you alright? Is it what Kureno told you?" Kyo asked getting worried.
She didn't know if she should tell him that she knew. Since Kyo himself had not told her, then he probably didn't want her to know.
'I'll ask Shigure…' She thinks. "I'm fine; I'm just tired is all." Tohru says smiling at Kyo. He wasn't sure if she really had meant what she said, but he didn't press the matter.
"Ah, there they are." Shigure says from the dinning table. Kyo and Tohru had at last made it back to the house.
"Hello Shigure." Tohru says happily. Kyo goes into the kitchen to drop off the bags of groceries they had just bought.
"Oh, Miss Honda, you're back." Yuki says as he comes down the stairs. Tohru smiles and greets Yuki before going to the small dining table and sitting down.
"Shigure, can I talk to you for a minute?" Tohru asks him. He eyed her strangely for a second before caving in.
"Sure." He says, dedicating his attention to her. Tohru takes a deep breath before continuing, while Yuki goes into the kitchen as to give the two some privacy. "What is it? Is something wrong?" Shigure asks concerned.
"I'm not sure. While Kyo and I were walking back from the store we bumped into Kureno, and, he told me something." Tohru says looking down.
"Oh, what was that?" Shigure asked, his curiosity getting the best of him.
"He told me, that if Kyo doesn't win a fight against Yuki, Akito will…put him in confinement." Tohru says. The room begins to feel tense.
"He did, did he?" Shigure asks thinking.
"What did you and Miss.. Honda buy at the store?" Yuki asks seeing Kyo put something in the fridge. "Leeks and some other stuff." Kyo says not looking at Yuki.
"What did you say to Miss Honda?" Yuki asks in a concerned tone.
"What the hell do you mean?" Kyo asks annoyed by the sudden tone in Yuki's voice.
"It seems that she is sad about something, what did you do?" Yuki asks in the same tone.
"Nothing you damn rat!"
"Is it true Shigure?" Tohru asked concerned, she was hoping it wasn't. Shigure sighs.
"A little while ago, Akito and Kyo made a bet. The bet was that if Kyo beats Yuki, he would be aloud to join the family, attend the banquet and everything. But, if Kyo did not beat Yuki before he graduated, then he would be locked up till the day he dies. Kyo knows this will happen if he fails to beat Yuki by then." Shigure tells her.
"But why would Kyo do that?" Tohru asks feeling sad.
"I don't know, it's amazing what someone can do when they are desperate enough." Shigure says.
