Shel thought for a moment. "Well, Lai, I've updated all my InuYasha fics and one of them is complete! Aren't you proud?"
Lai sighed. "I would be if we weren't in an Fruba fan-fiction disclaimer, you dummy."
Shel nodded. "You're right. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed the last chapter. Here's chapter 2, yo!"
"…Ahem!"
"What?"
Lai growled. "THE DISCLAIMER!"
Shel cleared her throat. "Don't own 'em."
"…prefect."
Tohru peered onto the roof. "Kyo-kun?"
The cat nearly fell off the roof. "Damn it, don't sneek up on me!" Tohru smiled. "Oh…sorry Kyo-kun, I was just wondering if you were okay and I knew to look up here and—."
"Are you going to get your ass up here or just ramble all night until the ladder tips over?" Kyo snapped. Actually…he didn't want her to fall. Tohru scrambled up on the roof.
"So, are you okay?" Kyo shrugged. "I swear I don't know what Shigure is talking about…" Kyo said, his little ears popping out of his head. "Alright? I don't know who this Kasumi-Rooster person is, okay?"
Tohru nodded. "I—uh…if you say so, Kyo-kun."
"I DO SAY SO!"
Tohru nearly fell of the roof. "I s-said I believe you!" Kyo relaxed, and put his hand to his head. "Are you okay or do you need me to leave you alone?"
Kyo sighed irritably. "No…I'm fine. You don't have to leave. I mean, if you've got better things to do, that's fine."
"Oh, no Kyo-kun, I mean I haven't got anything to do but…" she thought for a split second she should tell him. She hated seeing the poor guy suffer like this. Even thought he wasn't really suffering but still.
"Kyo-kun, about Kasumi—."
She didn't get to finish. A voice came down from the ground. "If you two love-birds don't mind, Shigure wants you both in so you're ready for Kasumi-san tomorrow."
Kyo went red. "Hatsuharu…" Vein. Vein. Vein. Vein. Tohru climbed down the ladder. "Well I guess you'll get to see Kasumi for the first time in ages, Kyo-kun."
"Yeah, more like for the first time, PERIOD." Kyo corrected then jumped down. Tohru freaked. She still wasn't use to watch him jump off of high places and not even have a scratch or flinch.
Tomorrow came. O-o-o-oh joy. Another Kagura. Or that's how everyone pictured it ot be. The door bell rang at 10AM.
Tohru looked up from her cooking. Kyo looked up from his nap. Yuki looked up from his studying. Shigure came in from his study and Hatsuharu answered the door. "Welcome."
Outside the door stood a girl about 15 years of age, tall, thin, pretty long blonde hair and brown eyes. She had a on a pink shirt and Capri jeans with a black mini-skirt over it, and holding onto a big bag and the Sohma driver was carrying three more. "Nice to see you again, Haru-kun." Her voice was sweet and soft. Hatsuharu just shrugged. "You too, I guess." Kasumi just smiled.
Everyone filed into the living room. Shigure came out in front of all the others. "Welcome back to the house, Kasa-san." Kasumi bowed. "Thanks Shigure-san."
"Kasa-san?" Yuki repeated under his breath but Hatsuharu heard him. "Seems Kasumi-kun is the only girl he'll give a name like that to." Yuki sighed. "I'll never fully figure out that man."
Kasumi came into the living room. "Hey everyone." She looked at Kyo who was trying to hide back behind Tohru. But she saw him and her brown eyes teared up. "K-kyo-kun?"
Tohru had this flinch. She had never really heard anyone call him 'kun' except her and Kagura but…Kagura was Kagura. And Kasumi said it was such feeling.
Yuki pushed Kyo forward and Kyo stood there looking like he had no clue what was going on. "Uh…" Kasumi just smiled. "It's okay." She turned to Tohru. "So you're the gil living with the Soma's huh?"
Tohru nodded. "Yes, and welcome." She bowed quickly. Kasumi shrugged slightly. Then she turned around to face Shigure. "So, where am I staying?" Shigure pointed up the staircase. "Upstairs with Tohru-san."
Tohru blinked. "Oh, she's staying with me?" Shigure nodded. "I didn't tell you? Well then, is this a problem?" Tohru shook her head. "No, no, no I mean I just didn't know that she was staying with and it's just a surprise I guess but it's no trouble and—."
"Would you quit rambling?" Kyo mumbled. Tohru froze. "Yeah o-o-okay." Shigure nodded. "Good. Then later, Hari-san and Aya-san will want to see you too."
Kyo and Yuki flinched at the mention of Ayame.
"Alright but what about Akito-san?"
"What about him?" Kyo snapped. Kasumi turned around. "So you do talk huh?" Kyo stood still. Kasumi sighed. "Never mind. So Akito doesn't want to see me eh?" She sounded really disappointed. Shigure shrugged.
"Well we don't want to see him either." Kyo said again. Before Kasumi could say anything, Kyo turned around and walked upstairs. Kasumi watched until he disappeared. "So," she sighed. "Kyo-kun doesn't remember a thing?"
Hatsuharu nodded. "So it seems."
"Hey if you're a Sohma and you were here for Yuki-kun and Kyo-kun when they were little," everone looked up at Tohru as she finished. "and if Kyo's memories are erased, that's understandable, but Yuki said yesterday that he didn't know you so—."
Kasumi got an evil look on her face as she smiled. "So Yuki…you don't remember me?" Yuki shook his head. "You've never come to New Years so how could I?"
"HOW COULD YOU?-!-!-!" Kasumi fumed. Yuki nodded. Kasumi growled a little growl. "Well I haven't been to New Years because Akito's there. Besides, you should never forget a Zodiac member, you rat."
"Now, Kasumi-san," Hatusuharu put his hands on Yuki's shoulders. "You don't have to yell. Yuki hasn't seen you since childhood and after that, you disappeared."
Kasumi calmed and exhaled. "I couldn't stand to see Kyo-kun in his condition." She shrugged. "Whatever, I'm not worried about you anyway." She turned around again. "Shigure, can we just go over to Hari's and Ayame-san's?" Shigure nodded. "Sure."
…
…
…
"Haru?" Yuki said after a silence.
"Yes?"
"Don't touch me."
