Sorry for such a long wait...here is the new chapter.
Who was that?
Megumi sat alone in his room reading the books that he usually kept all so neatly put away in his little book shelf. This whole predicament involving Kisa and her family was all very...interesting. A curse, that made them change forms when embraced by one of the opposing gender. He had never heard of such a curse, but he figured it must be way more advanced than anything he had ever read. Megumi had decided to do a little background research on a shape shifting curse. As he continued reading the book he looked out the window. It was a nice day. A very nice day indeed. He decided he should have a talk with Kisa and explain his plans of researching this curse.
Outside was a nice day. The sun shined with a slight breeze to keep it at a good temperature. As Megumi walked along he couldn't help but feel that he was being watched. He took a few more steps then stopped and heard a footstep from behind. Without turning around he spoke.
"Is there something I can help you with?" Megumi said loud enough for his follower to hear.
A boy stepped out into view, since he tried to find cover when Megumi stopped. Megumi finally turned his head to see a boy, obviously older than he was, with blond-ish short hair. The boy stepped toward him, giving Megumi the 'once over.'
"Yeah. So you are Megumi, huh? The curse freak." the boy said crossing his arms.
Curse freak. It was just like back when he told people about it. He had learned curses so that Saki would not be all alone with her own suffering because of her...differences.
"Yes...and who might you be?" Megumi kept his tone low, still appearing to be unaffected by the name.
"That's none of your buisness." Said that boy with a somewhat snotty tone of voice "And neither is the curse so you should just butt out and leave Kisa and the Sohmas alone."
Sohmas. Curse. Kisa. Obviously this boy must have been one of the cursed ones. Kisa had mentioned that there was one for each animal of the zodiac, including the cat. He kept his empty stare on the boy for a moment before responding.
"If that is all you wish to say then I will just leave now." with that, Megumi turned back and continued to walk on. After a few steps, he felt his shoulder be grabbed and jerked, he was pulled back and felt his back be slammed then pressed against a wall.
"We don't want you and we especially don't need you. We have enough issues with outsiders, the last thing we need is another idiot interfering."Another outsider? He then realized it. Tohru now resides in the house in which he had first spoken with Kisa. So she must have discovered it and been keeping it a secret. Megumi then felt his shoulder be released and the boy started to walk away. "It doesn't matter anyways. You won't remember anything after we're done with you."
Won't remember anything? What could the boy have meant by wont remember anything? He didn't think they would try some drastic like hit him on the head in hopes of amnesia. He watched the boy disappear from view and then turned back to the direction he was walking in before. Obviously this means things would be weird from now on if he was unwelcome to even see Kisa. He had to speak with her today, especially to find out the answer to the question currently bothering him: Who exactly was that boy and why didn't he was Megumi to have contact with the Sohmas?
