"There are a few things you should know. One, the Licentia Basium only works when it's boy-girl." Michiko wanted to make sure the understood. She turned to Tohru and Red. "Are either of you cursed?"
I watched them shake their heads and sighed. (A/N: You have no idea how much I wanted to make him say "That's okay. I'll kiss you anyway.") "All's well. I can make sure," I indicated the men in the room. "They don't try anything."
Out of the corner of my eye I saw something change in the yin. "What's that supposed to mean, punk?"
He was about to charge me when Shina suprisingly moved in front of him, put her hands on his chest (calming him instantly) and said "He wasn't talking about you." I was suprised. Normaly it was Michiko or myself who dealt with angry outbursts. I looked at my other sister who seemed just as suprised as I was. "He was talking about Shigure."
Shigure started to pout, mocking offense. "Oh Shina, how could you wound me so brutally?"
Shina felt instant guilt. "I'm sorry, Shigure. It's just that--"
Michiko rudely interupted, much to what I was sure was Shina's gratitude. "It's just that your manner of greating was very perverted."
"But," Shigure shead anime tears. "You girls are so beautiful."
"Thank you." Michiko played nice for a split second. "But, if you dare even try take advantage of me or my sister, I will blast your eardrums with a snap of my fingers." she snapped fingers. She didn't manipulate the sound but, I could tell she got her point across. Behave or suffer the consequences.
I was beginning to get impatient. Normally they would have been done by now. "Moving on. It only works for those thirteen or older. You are all over the age of thirteen, right?"
Everyone nodded, including Sugar.
"Really?" Shina asked him. Who could blame her. The kid looked nine.
"Yeah," he responded. "I'm sixteen"
"Woah." Michiko breathed.
"Also," I continued. "Anyone who sees the Licentia Basium has to remain silent about it until after the entire family is freed, save for those who don't want our help." I paused to look at Shina. "Is there anyone like that? It might be a good idea to leave them to me or Ko. Na always feels so guilty for them."
Shigure spoke up. "Akito, maybe. He is the head of the family and has a power complex."
"Thank you." I could tell they really wanted to do this. "You can't do anything to speed the process. Basically the cursed must come on their own accord. They must either invite themselves or simply show up. Furthermore, you can't introduce us. If we hapen to be in the other room when they get here, do not call us down, steer them toward us, vice versa, or in any way make us meet them. it has to be purely fate."
I was getting tired of explaining. "Nako, take it from here will you?"
"'Kay." they said together.
Michiko started. "Freedom will change you. Positive things stay but the negative influences the curse had on your personality will be gone."
"You have to truely want to be free. any remote attachment to the curse that have will tear apart your sanity if it does work. If it doesn't work we will unknowingly kill you we would literally suck your life out."
Michiko walked over to one of the cursed. "So, Silverado do you truely, completely want freedom?"
Yuki's POV
I almost immediatly said Yes.
Then I heard Michiko say "Think really hard, Silver."
And I did. I thought of the insanity or death that would wait for me if there was even the smallest part of me that loved the rat inside me. I thought of the mental abuse Akito had put me through. I thought of friend I lost as a child because of my family burden. I looked at Machi I knew my answer. Still into her beautiful brown eyes I said "Yes." Machi, the love I feel for you leaves no room for this curse. If I perish. I perish.
