Chapter 6: Explanation
The halls were completely silent. Chio was frantically trying to hide the cat and rat sitting silently on the floor.
"Chio," the rat began to speak. Chio stopped and turned around to it. "We might as well explain."
Tohru pointed to the rat shakily, "It talks too?" Yuki and Kyo were also looking suspiciously at the two animals. It was like they were seeing themselves.
Chio sighed, knowing resistance was futile. "Would you like to explain, Kourutsuni?" The rat nodded its head and cleared its throat.
Did she just refer to the rat as Kourutsuni? Yuki looked down at the rat as it began to speak.
"I am Kourutsuni, not just a talking rat," she pointed to the orange cat sulking against the wall. "This is Emiree. Our family was cursed by the Chinese zodiac and also the cat. Every time we are under a great deal of stress or hugged by a member of the opposite sex, we transform."
Tohru looked over Kourutsuni and Emiree. I guess this would explain when I was in the restroom.
Flashback
Tohru listened to them talking. Also she was contemplating why Kyo didn't transform and what they were talking about.
They both walked out. Tohru heard a "Watch where you are going!" and a cat meowing.
Kyo?
She ran outside and to her next class to see if Kyo was in there. Surprisingly he was along with Yuki and Kourutsuni. She counted them and stopped at Emiree's desk.
Where could she be?
End Flashback
Kyo also began to think about the situation. So this is the reason why I didn't transform when Emiree bumped into me.
Yuki was extremely confused. How can they be cursed when all the animals have already possessed our family?
Tohru turned to Chio and asked, "So-so does that mean, that you are cursed as well?"
Chio turned her head, and nodded. "It's easy to guess what animal I am."
"Um… Are you the cow?" Tohru asked cheerfully. Chio nodded once again while smiling.
Two poofs sounded through the hall. Tohru, Yuki, Kyo, and Chio all turned away.
Chio looked at them suspiciously, "How did you know to turn around?"
Tohru chuckled slightly, "Um well…, instinct?"
Kourutsuni and Emiree got changed. "You can turn around now."
Emiree walked up to Kyo, "Now I have a question for you." Sweat began to form on Kyo's head. Does she know about the Sohma curse as well?
"Why didn't I transform when I bumped into you?
Kyo's Flashback
Emiree was walking behind Kyo to go to her next class followed by Kourutsuni and Tohru, who were talking, and Yuki behind them. Suddenly, Emiree tripped and fell on top of Kyo.
Oh shit, now I'm gonna transform! I've gotta make a run for it.
Kyo opened his eyes. He looked at his hands. I didn't transform?
End Flashback
Tohru grabbed Kyo's arm and said, "We better get to class. This can wait for later I'm sure."
"Hmph…, fine," Emiree followed into the classroom.
Once they were all in the classroom, the teacher began to speak to them. "Where have all of you been?"
"I'm so sorry sir," Tohru began bowing her head.
"Apologizing isn't going to help, detention for all of you!" He handed each of them a detention slip.
"Aw hell! Now I have two detentions!" Kyo shouted gritting his teeth.
"Make that three, Kyo Sohma," he handed Kyo another slip. "There is no profanity allowed in this classroom. Now take your seats."
