I ended the last chapter on a really sad note. I probably said that before, but I usually end up repeating myself. Well, anyway here is the next chapter.
Point on No Return
Flash Back
Kyra's Father's POV
She sat there not speaking or moving for what seemed like an eternity. When she looked over her shoulder and saw me distaste filled her eyes. Ever since that beast of a thing came out of her she had been different. She had been broken…
Present
Shigure's POV
I watched Tohru, Kyo, and Yuki come home from visiting Kyra at the hospital from my seat in the living room. "Welcome home," I sang happily. Tohru greeted me as always, Yuki acknowledged me with a nod, and Kyo didn't say or do anything.
"I'm going to the roof," he said to no one in particular and headed up. Ever since he and Haru came back from the hospital right after Kyra had been entered he had been very quiet. "Yuki?" I called to the kitchen where he was helping Tohru cook. He poked his head around the corner.
"How is she?" I asked being serious for once. Yuki down cast his eyes and entered the room. "She looks horrible, but the doctors think she is stabilizing." I pretended to understand and just nodded.
"I have an idea!" I announced jumping up from my chair and dancing around the room.
"What?"
"We can throw her a party!" I exclaimed excitedly and skipped over to the phone to call Ayame.
"You know she hasn't woken up yet," Yuki stated walking over to my jumping figure. I stopped jumping and hung up the phone thinking.
"Hmm, we can have it when she wakes up!"
At the hospital
Haru's POV
"I'm really worried about her mom," I said looking over at Kyra's motionless body. Once in a while she would twitch or move slightly, but she had yet to wake up. My mother walked over behind my chair next to Kyra's bed and rubbed my back.
"Haru, honey. Visiting hours are almost over, we should really be going. You have to go to school tomorrow, since you have missed four full days." I looked at her and sighed. This would be the first time I had left Kyra's side since I found out she was in the hospital. My gaze found its way back to Kyra's healing face. I gently brushed her hair away and kissed her forehead.
"I'm still here at heart," I whispered to her and stood up. Walking down the hallway was pure hell for me. I kept thinking about Kyra waking up all alone in the dark, by herself and anger filled me. "Why can't I just spend one more day with her?" I asked my mother when we were waiting for the elevator door to open.
Sadly my mother shook her head and turned back to stare at the elevator. "You know, when she hugs me I don't transform," I said softly. Her eyes shot back to me and she grabbed my shoulders. "Why didn't you tell me before?"
I shrugged and looked at the spot on the wall just over her left shoulder. "I must tell Hatori! He will be thrilled!" she said thinking that Hatori could use this someway to cure the Zodiac curse.
"No!" I yelled immediately thinking about Akito. Hatori told Akito everything and this would certainly call Hatori and Akito to visit Kyra here in the hospital. I knew my mother was going to tell them no matter what, but I decided that I could at least be here when they came. I turned to my mom and looked her in the eye. "I'm staying here," I said matter-of-factly and walked back to Kyra's room.
Sohma Main House
Akito's POV
"Akito, Madera just called(A/N Haru's Mother cause I don't know her real name). She said that Hatsuharu found out something very interesting about that Titsugumi girl," Hatori said entering my room. I turned from staring out the window and looked at the man before me.
"What has he learned?" I asked feeling excitement rise in my stomach.
"He can hug her without transforming," Hatori replied without much emotion. He's probably still sore about that whole Kana thing, I thought (A/N evilly I might add) as I smiled to myself.
"Where is she?" Hatori looked at me with shock written on his face. He had not thought that we would leave right away but he was sadly mistaken. "Don't make me repeat myself," I warned feeling my anger rise.
"She is in the hospital right now. She was …attacked… and she has yet to wake up." I nodded my understanding.
"We shall go in the morning,"
Back at the Hospital
Kyra's POV (dream)
"What do you want?" Haru asked when I ran towards him. "Why would I care about you when I can have any girl I want?" He grabbed a girl walking by and pulled her to him, kissing her, then shoving her along. He started to laugh when he saw the devastated look on my face.
"NO!" I yelled as I fought my way out of that nightmare and into the next.
This new dream was strangely familiar. There was an old rocking chair near a bay window and I stood in the doorway. In the rocking chair sat a woman unmoving or making a sound. Mother? No, No. I tried to push this dream away to but it had taken hold in my brain and I could not be rid of it.
Haru's POV (awake)
Her body began to shake as I sat next to her. I held her hand and tried to calm her but she just kept shaking. "DOCTOR!" I yelled over my shoulder. Calm down, please, I need you! I shouted in my head. The doctor came running in and put something in her mouth. "What's that for?" I asked. He didn't even look at me.
"It's to keep her from swallowing her tongue." My pupils dilated and I could feel my body sway.
"No…."
I don't want to write anymore because I know what's going to happen. But then again, I will probably think about it anyway so I'll continue.
The next morning (A/N Gasp!)
Hatori's POV
The drive to the hospital was almost unbearably quiet, but since I had been spending more time with Akito lately I was use to quiet. He just sat in the back seat staring out the window.
"Here we are," I said when we were parked and ready to enter. Akito didn't even wait for me to open his door; instead he hopped out and began to walk to the entrance. It was easy enough to find the room Kyra was suppose to be in, but to our distress she wasn't inside. I walked over to the nurses' station and asked where she was moved.
"Let's see, she was moved into a normal wing in the middle of last night when she awoke from her coma," The nurse said. "Thank you," she just nodded in reply since she had work to do.
All right. I know this chapter was short but I really want to stop writing now. I'll update soon. Bye!
