Tohru's eyes widened in fear as her captor stepped into the moonlight. Akito smirked at her, his eyes ablaze. "Well Ms. Honda... didn't i tell you we would meet again? Didn't i say that you would be punished if you interfered?" A glared down at her, his gaze burning into her flesh. "And what about that little thing you agreed to? You know, the promise you broke? The one where you agreed that if you stayed out of our business, i wouldn't touch Kyo? That's right. I know why you pretended to love Haru. It was because you knew that if you stayed in that house, you would become too attached to Kyo, right. Well know, i'm going to make you both pay for ruining our happiness."
Tohru gasped and starred up at him in disbelief. "i-i'm sorry. But please... please give me another chance! Just don't hurt him! PLEASE! i'll do anything!" she begged as his arm came up about to strike her. Suddenly, his face calmed down, and he smiled coldly. "Anything?" she starred up at him. She paused, letting free tears fall from her eyes, as she realized the sacrafice she was about to make. She swallowed hard, her throat dry. And she spoke the word that would effect her life forever. "Anything."
:AT SHISHOUS:
"DAMNIT!" Kyo shouted, banging his fists against the wall. A couple of tears slipped out from the corner of his eyes, before they were brused away before anyone saw them. "Why didn't i figure it out before... i'm such an idiot! now, if something happens to her, it's all my fault!" he put his head in his hands, giving up on trying to hold back the tears. He then heard a voice that made his blood run cold with anger and he stood up.
"No. It's my fault." There in the door stood Haru, with a black eye, and a slap mark on his face.
"you BASTARD!YOU HURT HER! HOW COULD YOU!" Kyo yelled, lunging at him, his fists ready to kill. Hatsuharu didn't bother moving out of the way. Kyo punched him square in the jaw, sending Haru flying into the wall. Haru stood up and starred at Kyo. Kyo pulled back his fist back as to punch him again, then slowly lowered it when he realized that Haru was neither angry, nor black. He starred at him, 'til he realized that Haru was crying.
"Why the hell are you crying? You're the one that cheated on HER! And now she is missing..." Kyo was cut off by Shishou gently taking hold of his arm. Shishou stood in front of Haru.
"Why did you do it?...Why did you hurt Tohru the way you did? Were you trying to get rid of her because you don't love her anymore-" "IT WASN'T THAT! I LOVER HER MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF! Why won't you believe me!" "HARU! Calm down...i wasn't through...anyways...or were you simply tired of waiting for Tohru to get comfortable around you enough to kiss you...or maybe more..."
Haru's face turned bright red. "If I could do it over...i never would have done it..."
Kyo looked at Haru. "If you help us find her...I will spare your life for the time being...but only because we would be short on people!" Kyo shouted stubbornly as he stood up and ran out the door to search the main house for Tohru...and Akito.
:Meanwhile:
Yuki reached the door of his house panting, and rammed on the door 'til Shigure finally came to the door and was about to make a comment about the noise when he realized the state that Yuki was in. He quickly grabbed Yuki, shutting the door behind him, he laid Yuki on the couch and was about to go call Hatori, when he felt a weak hand grab his arm keeping him from leaving. He turned around to see Yuki looking up at him trying to speak. "Yuki...don't talk...you'll just make your condition worse." He said looking him in the eye.
Yuki starred at him. "I...don't care...Kyo and I just...need help...finding her." He said through raspy gasps for air.
Shigure froze. "Find who...oh god...you don't mean...TOhru?" Yuki weakly nodded his head, as he struggled to push himself up from the couch...but failed. Shigure bent to help him up. "We have to find her at all costs!"
:Main House:
Akito smirked. "So...you will do anything?...are you sure...cause i could always just kill the rest, and leave you with the guilt of it being your fault...even your precious Kyo."
Tohru's eyes swelled with tears. "yes...anything. Just as long as you leave the others alone."
"Sure...but...are you prepared to die for them, to help satisfy my craving for revenge."
Her eyes widened in horror. She then did the thing she feared worst...she nodded.
