A/N: Man, sorry if I haven't updated in awhile. I've been busy helping with my school's spring play (I'm head of props). Anyways, I'd like to say thanks to all of you who read and reviewed my story. I appreciated the reviews because they showed me that my writing actually doesn't suck!
Chapter 4
Tohru Finds
Out
"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Tohru said turning to
Kaiya, "we have to do our endurance run today. Too bad you're
starting your first day of school with
an endurance race."
"Oh, well," Kaiya began, "I'm not
exactly as strong as Kyo, but I'll manage."
Both girls
finished getting dressed into their uniforms and headed downstairs,
where they were greeted by Shigure.
"Oh,
Kaiya, don't you look cute in that new school uniform?"
Shigure laughed until he was abruptly stopped by Kyo hitting him over
the head with his school bag.
"Shut up, 'ya
damn dog!" Kyo screamed, "Let's get going already." Kyo began
to storm out the door.
"So where's Yuki this morning?" Kaiya
asked.
"He actually got up early for once this morning."
Shigure began, "He said he had a student council meeting, but he
will meet up with you later."
"Okay then, we better get going
too." said Tohru with her usual goofy
grin.
The two girls headed out the door. When it seemed that
they were half
way to school, Kaiya suddenly stopped dead in her
tracks.
"What is it Kaiya-san?" Tohru asked.
"I just
realized I forgot my bag back at Shigure's house"
"Well,
let's go back and get it."
Tohru said as she started to head back towards Shigure's house.
"No
its okay, its no big deal." Kaiya said motioning for Tohru to stop,
"I'm just forgetful sometimes."
"Okay then." Tohru said
and the two of them continued on to school.
Not too long
after they got there, they were greeted
by Yuki.
"Hello, Kaiya, Honda-san. Are you two ready for
the endurance run today?" Yuki questioned.
"Yes."
Both girls replied.
Not too long after that, they
were met by the Yuki Fan Club girls and
yet another chorus of their annoying song.
"Oh man, I
can't take much more of this." Kaiya thought as the girls seemed
to crowd themselves around Yuki. Suddenly she just waltzed
right up to the fan club girls and gave them a piece of her mind.
"Oh
my God! Are you serious?" She said as she continued to laugh at
them, "Yuki already has a fan club and that's me," Kaiya
started to motion towards herself, "so
I suggest you girls should start looking for a new hobby because I'm
not leaving any time soon." Kaiya finished speaking and
walked off with Tohru to her new classroom leaving the fan club girls
with their
mouths dropped all the way to the floor.
Lunch
time came quickly. Tohru and Kaiya
sat outside eating their lunch, when they were shortly joined by Uo
and Hana.
"You're the new girl,
right?" Uo said walking up to Kaiya.
"Yes, my name is Kaiya
Sohma. Pleased to meet you."
"Yes,
I'm sensing some unusual, and
depressing electric waves from this new
girl." Hana whispered
to Tohru.
"Well, lunch is almost over and we have our endurance
run next," Tohru said starting to stand up, "oh, Uo you decided
not to skip this time."
"I heard
you gave the Prince Yuki Fan Club a good
talking to." Hana
said,
opening a bag of chips and snacking on them.
"Yeah, I thought
since it was our last year, I might as well contribute
something
to this damn school."
The girls threw away their garbage from
lunch, and headed to where
the
endurance run would be held. Yuki and Kyo were both
there along with Haru and
Momiji in the background.
"Hey,
Kai-chan!" Momiji said as he ran up waving to Kaiya who was putting
her long hair up into a ponytail.
"Hi, Momiji-kun." Kaiya said
scratching Momiji gently on the head.
She began to talk with
Momiji, when they were shortly interrupted by a loud voice announcing
something.
"All right, the
endurance race is about to begin, girls you are up first." The
voice of the physical education teacher said.
The girls began to
line up to start when Uo and Hana pulled their usual
"I can't
go on anymore" bit, and sat out. The teacher blew his whistle
and the girls took of like lightning. Kaiya and Tohru
remained towards the back of
the crowd of girls, because they
helped out with Uo and Hana. Tohru
began to look back
behind her.
"The boys should be starting right about now." She
said looking over at
Kaiya.
"Yeah."
Kaiya said as she wheezed a little.
"Are you alright?" Tohru
asked.
"Yeah, I just haven't been running like this for a long
time."
Just then,
it seemed like Yuki and Kyo were running at lightning speed and
almost passed Tohru and Kaiya right by. They were suddenly
stopped by Tohru's yelling.
"Kaiya, what's wrong?" Tohru
yelled at her friend.
"I'm okay, really, you can stop worrying
about me." Kaiya soon began to
clutch her forehead almost as if
she was suffering from a major migraine
until….. everything
around her went black as she hit the pavement.
Yuki quickly realized what happened, turned around, and
came up to Tohru hovering over an unconscious Kaiya. He was
soon followed by Kyo, Haru, and Momjij who at the time were passing
by.
"What's wrong with her?" Tohru said in a panic.
"Kyo,
go call Shigure and let him know that we are coming." Yuki said to
the stupid cat.
Kyo just stood and
stared at his sister. He knew she was sick, but he had never
seen her like this before, lying right in front of him. His
thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Yuki screaming at
him.
"Kyo!"
Kyo quickly ran off to find a phone
to call Shigure, while Haru and Momiji went to try and get a cab to
take them there. Kyo returned about five minutes later, and
Kaiya still lay with her head in Tohru's lap unconscious
"She's
still unconscious." Yuki said looking up at Kyo, "Tohru did she
bring a bag with her to school today?"
"She left it at the
house, but she said not to worry about it because it wasn't
important." Tohru answered with a worried look on her face.
"God,
she can be so careless at times." Kyo huffed as he saw the cab
approaching them.
"Haru, Momiji, I think you two should get
back to school." Yuki
advised,
"We'll let you know when she's better."
Haru and Momiji
headed back towards the car and Yuki,
Kyo, and Tohru
climbed into the cab to go to Shigure's house.
Kaiya had still not awakened yet. The four of them returned to the
house and a voice greeted them as they stepped in the door.
"Oh,
look who's here, Hari." Shigure said
as Hatori stood up whilst putting a cigarette out and walking towards
the four teens.
"Bring her over here." Hatori said motioning
with his
hand toward the couch.
He knelt down beside
her and began to rummage through his medical bag, "how long has she
been out like this?" Hatori asked.
"Just about an hour" Yuki
said.
"Yuki could you bring me some orange juice and Tohru could
you get her bag of supplies upstairs," Hatori requested,
directing his attention to the three teens,
"and Kyo..." Kyo suddenly was gone. He had
disappeared all together.
Tohru went
up to get the supplies Hatori was talking
about when she noticed something shiny beside Kaiya's bed. It
was a necklace almost in the shape of a dog tag. It was
inscribed with something, too.
Tohru picked it up and read the inscription, "Kaiya Sohma: Type 1
Diabetic."
She quickly returned downstairs with Kaiya's bag
and handed it to Hatori,
who was checking Kaiya for all normal vital signs.
"This is a
bad case of low blood sugar I believe." Hatori said taking out a
syringe from his bag and stealing some insulin from Kaiya's.
He injected her in the thigh, because she was already wearing
shorts. All of a sudden Kaiya shot up from her
unconsciousness.
"Oh, my God, the endurance run!" She
screamed as Hatori was trying to
calm her down. "What the
hell am I doing here,
and what's Hatori doing here?"
"Well, I thought it'd be
best to call him when I heard you blacked out during the endurance
run." Shigure said propping himself up against the wall.
"Well,
I'm fine now. No need to worry." Kaiya started to stand up
and
got dizzy. Then Hatori quickly pushed her back down on
the couch.
"Here,
drink this," Hatori said handing her the orange juice Yuki had
gotten, "you had a very bad case of low blood sugar young
lady so I don't think you should get up just quite yet."
Hatori always seemed to lecture her about her diabetes. It
started to get old after awhile.
"Hatori, I've heard this
speech a million times." Kaiya said,
waving her
hand.
Hatori quickly handed
her a bar of chocolate to go along with the orange juice (it's a
good way to get your blood sugar back to
normal). He seemed to stand there to make sure she ate it
before he left.
"There, you guys
happy now?" Kaiya said shoving the last piece of chocolate into her
mouth.
Hatori soon left afterwards,
and only after he gave Kaiya a final lecture about taking her
injections three times a day. Then Kaiya turned to Tohru to
speak, but was still a little light headed, "I'm sorry I didn't
tell you about this sooner. I'm also sorry you had to find
out the hard way."
Tohru just stared
at Kaiya and then remembered the
necklace in her hand.
"Here, I think this belongs to you." She
said handing the necklace to Kaiya.
"Thank you."
Tohru
turned around and headed towards the kitchen and then looked back
at
Kaiya, "I'll get you some more juice."
