Point of No Return

Haru's POV

Kyra's limp body was lain across my lap. It had been a few minutes since she had passed out and I was starting to worry. The urge to hide her from the world was pushing at the back of my mind. Yuki and Kyo cleared people aside as I carried her to the couch. They had tried to help, but Black Haru had taken control again and wouldn't let anyone near her.

"Oh, Kyra!" Christian exclaimed when he saw her motionless form. He went to kneel beside her but I didn't leave him enough room to be comfortable. "Would you mind pushing over a bit," Christian hissed at me dangerously. This was the opportunity I had been waiting for all night. I turned my gaze on him and my fist followed suit. It connected with his chin squarely and he fell over onto his back.

He had not been ready for the first punch, but I knew the ones to follow would be harder to place. He sat up in a flash and went to punch me back. I dodged easily and drew him away from Kyra. Instead of breaking the paper door as Kyo and I were accustomed to doing I opened it. Christian and I positioned ourselves in the yard before we attacked again.

I had misjudged Christian's skill and was punished with a few solid kicks to the gut. I'll be colorful tomorrow; I mused to myself as I shot in for another punch. For a while we pummeled each other. We were equally matched so no one was going to win anytime soon, and I felt my anger subsiding.

I stopped moving altogether and bowed slightly to Christian after we broke apart for the fourth time. He looked confused by the gesture, but didn't continue his attack. "I'm sorry for attacking you. I know that you are Kyra's dear friend and still I am jealous, but I will stop this fight before either of us get seriously wounded." Emphasizing the word friend slightly, I forfeited the fight. The cool night air ruffled his blonde hair slightly and his chest rose and fell with each intake of air.

"I don't understand you Hatsuharu Sohma, but I can tell you care for Kyra very much." I nodded. He wiped his bloody nose on his arm and went off to find some bandages. Ignoring my wounds I went back to Kyra. She was just sleeping now, I could tell because of the color that had returned to her face. Gently I woke her up. Her emerald eyes slide open but were still clouded with sleep.

"What happened?" She mumbled as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. As she remembered the events of the night I felt her jolt. Now the expression on her face was alert and scared.

"Who was on the phone?" I asked her softly bringing her attention back to me. Ayame decided that it was the time to gather attention towards him.

"Well, Yuki why don't we go bond in the other room. Everyone else is welcome of course." Yuki had been taken by surprise by his brother's sudden outburst and went along with him, as did everyone else. Since Ayame and Yuki's 'bonding' was always a fun event to watch there weren't protests. I glanced up to see if anyone was left in the room with us and found Rin in the doorway to the kitchen. There was no emotion on her face.

"Can we have a minute alone please Suzu?" I pleaded with her softly. She did not reply instead she shrugged and went into the kitchen. Kyra placed her hands on my shoulders and buried her face in my shoulder. Wetness slowly seeped through my shirt. I hadn't even realized she had been crying. I hugged her gently for a few moments until I felt she had calmed down.

"It was a message from my father. I have to go home over the weekend." Fury shot through my system and I fought for control.

"Why do you have to go? He said you could live at the Sohma estate." She was reluctant to answer, but she had no choice.

"Our birthdays are this weekend."

"Our?"

"We were born on the same day, it is also the day my mother's body passed on." I was at a loss of words. Did she want to be comforted about her mother's death or wished a happy birthday for turning sixteen?

"I don't know what to say. Wishing you a Happy Birthday might be bitter knowing that it is also the anniversary of you mother's death. Why didn't you tell me before?" Biting her lip Kyra gathered her courage.

"Because I love you."

Ayame's POV

"So Yuki, do you finally want to learn how to be just like me?" I bubbled at my embarrassed brother. He was enduring my torture so Hatsuharu and Kyra could be alone and I was very proud.

"What? Act like an idiot and hang all over Hatori?" He retorted sarcastically. I looked lovingly at Hatori over Yuki's shoulder and smiled. Hatori excused himself and lit a cigarette out on the porch.

"Now look what you did Yuki, you scared away Haa-san. Also you could never fully be like me because you don't have a Shigure." This time I did a thumbs up sign to Shigure and smirked suggestively. We both broke out in laughter while everyone else looked at us as if we were Sumo wrestlers trying to tango across a tight rope.

"Now look Ayame, you made him sad." Shigure said putting his arm around my shoulders. I twirled over to Yuki and hugged him.

"I'm so sorry little brother, maybe I could take you back to my shop with Tohru again. Then you wouldn't hate me anymore." His body stiffened and I knew that soon I would be in a great deal of pain.

"Please Yuki, it's ok. I wouldn't mind going back to Ayame's shop with you honest!" Tohru pleaded trying to stop the on coming violence. In her race across the room she tripped and fell landing on both Yuki and I. A loud POOFing sound could be heard throughout the house and I attempted to make an escape in my snake form. "I am so sorry!" Squealed Tohru as everyone else laughed. Yuki stayed by Tohru's side trying to calm her down.

"It's all right Miss Honda there was no harm done, really calm down." Kyo crossed to Tohru and helped her stand up.

"See, you even prevented Yuki from killing Ayame." Kyo pointed out softly.She looked up and smiled slowly.

"I did, didn't I."

Akito's POV

Sohma Estate

She actually came to see me. Why does she care? Kyra Titsugumi is a puzzle I must figure out. "Hatori!" There was no answer. The house felt empty. I stood up from the floor and went out into the hallway. A servant turned the corner then tried to slink away, but I called her to me.

"Where is everyone?" I asked menacingly. The servant coward slightly without looking me in the eye.

"They went to a party in honor of Miss Titsugumi at Master Shigure's house Sir." I didn't even bother telling her to leave instead I quickly walked to my car. Normally Hatori drove me everywhere, but I did know how to drive myself.

Rain splattered across the windshield as I turned on the ignition. There was one thought on my mind. Kyra.
