Akito gave a wicked grin and gets up shakily. Kyo and Yuki do not move to help him. Akito stagers to them, coming close to Yuki, then holding Yuki's cheek in his hand. "Yuki, it's been so long since I have last seen you. You have gotten taller." Akito asks in a soothing threatening tone.
Yuki winced a little at Akitos touch. "And Kyo, my monster." Akito says coming closer to Kyo. Kyo stands his ground and doesn't move. "Are you ready to give up your freedom yet?" Akito says then laughs.
Yuki looks to Kyo with a questionably look. "Oh, that's right! Kyo, you never told Yuki of our bet! Oh, how I almost forgot!" Akito says laughing more. "If Kyo doesn't beat you before he graduates.." Akito laughs more,
"Then he will be locked away, my monster in a cage, how original! Oh, my side, this is to funny!" Akito laughs even more. Kyo and Yuki exchange a look, but Kyo looks away fast.
He didn't want Yuki to know of him and Akito's bet. "But, that is not why I have called you both." Akito says finally coming back to what was going on. "I have brought you both, to talk about Miss Tohru Honda." Akito says.
Yuki and Kyo stiffen, eyes focused on Akito, what he was going to do and say. Akito walks back to the door that he was leaning on when Kyo and Yuki had come in before. "What about Tohru?" Kyo finally says.
Akito tilts his head towards Kyo. "She must be dealt with, I can't have you two falling more in love with her." He says and looks back to the outside. Yuki didn't know what to say, but he knew he had to say something.
"I can't have my monster brining someone else down with him, even if it is another monster, that Tohru Honda. And Yuki, you are supposed to be with me, no one else, you can not defy me." Almost in a blink of an eye, Akito runs across the room and smacks Yuki in the face, then hits Kyo in the gut with his elbow, sending him backwards.
Yuki staggers backward. "You both can not defy me! What makes you think that you can go being my back, and go for HER! She can't do anything! She is a worthless human! She can't save you!" Kyo gets up, holding his stomach.
"She's a threat to you."
Kyo says looking Akito in the eye. "I see it now, your afraid of her. All of the Zodiac members are going to her, and leaving poor little Akito behind, your afraid of her. You know she can save us, and that she has the power to…" Kyo stops.
Both Akito and Yuki look at Kyo, a little in shock of his words. Akito grows angrier.
"You think you can talk to me like that! The cat! You have no power, you are a worthless monster, just like her! And for those words, you and she will pay!" Akito says kicking Kyo again, this time in the face, which also sent him falling backwards. Kyo does not fight back, but just takes it. "STOP!" Yuki yells trying to intervene, but Akito does not stop.
He is now punching and kicking Kyo, who lays there on the floor, looking defenseless. "STOP!" Yuki yells again, this time grabbing Akito from behind.
Akito struggles for a moment then easily gets out of Yuki's grip. Akito staggers back to his spot, the one by the door. "Oh Yuki, trying to save the cat? He can not be saved. And neithercan you." Akito says. "Leave." Yuki helps Kyo up and they leave to go home.
"Kyo! Yuki!" Tohru yells as Yuki helps Kyo lay down on the couch. "I'll go and call Hatori." Yuki says going for the phone. Tohru kneels by Kyo, looking over his injuries.
Two cuts were on his face, a little blood coming from his side, and his arms were badly bruised. Yuki comes back and kneels by Tohru. "It was Akitos doing." He says.
Tohru nods, gets up, and goes to get warm water and a towel. Kyo's eyes were shut for the moment, Yuki wasn't sure if he was sleeping, or trying not to focus on the pain. "You know, I respect you for not fighting." Yuki says after a little while.
Kyo doesn't say anything, and Yuki goes up, seeing what is taking Tohru so long. She comes out a moment later, with a large bowl of warm water and a white towel in her hand. She tries getting the blood off of Kyo, and Yuki helps, after getting another towel. "What happened…?" Tohru asks, close to tears. She didn't know what to do or say. "Akito got into another raging fit, and took it out on Kyo." Tohru notices Yuki's cheek, it is a light shade of pink, and she can tell a bruise would form.
"Where is Shigure?" Yuki asks. "He...He went out a little...bit ago." Tohru says and brakes out into tears. "Miss Honda.." Yuki says. She was afraid for Kyo, he was so hurt, she wasn't there to help him like he was always there for her.
"It will be alright." Says a voice from behind.
Hatori comes and kneels by Tohru. "I have it form here Tohru, no need to worry he will be fine." Tohru reluctantly gets up, with the help of Yuki and they head into the kitchen.
"That was both stupid and smart of you." Hatori says getting out bandages. Kyo opens his eyes, but doesn't say anything. "Why didn't you fight back?" Hatori asks.
Kyo avoids Hatori's eyes. "I didn't want him to hurt her, or talk about her, so I took it." He says and winces where Hatori tries to move him a little at his side.
"Momiji told me what you said to him, he could hear you down the hall." He says now looking at bandaging Kyo's face. "So what?" Kyo says not seeing why it mattered what he had said.
"It needed to be said." was all Hatori says and then there was silence between them.
