I hope you enjoyed the last chapter! I'm going to add some fluff to this chapter, don't say anything if Kyo acts a bit OOC.


Yuki handed the book to Kyo, "It's you guys' turn to figure out. I did a whole page by myself yesterday." Kyo took the book wordlessly and took it into his room; it bothered him that the two of them had to work together. He hid it under his bed.

After they had both Kyo and Tohru finished their homework, the two of them sat down together in Kyo's room. "Wow, I'm so excited Kyo-kun, I wonder what we'll find out!"

Kyo simply grunted, Tohru's expression faltered a bit, but was replaced soon. Kyo noticed this, but didn't say anything. "Ok Kyo-kun! Where's the book?"

"Ummmmm…… er, I don't know?" Kyo shifted awkwardly.

"Um, then, I guess we should look for it? Why don't you look in you closet while I look in your desk, Kyo-kun"

After a bit more than 15 minutes of searching, Tohru finally found it. "Kyo-kun, you hid it under the bed!" she exclaimed.

"Oh yeah" he said. Tohru sat on her chair while Kyo locked the door. Tohru blushed at this. "Just so Shigure doesn't find us with the book" he explained. Tohru nodded.

"Well, okay, we should start, I guess. I'll do the second page while you do the third" (it was easy since, both pages could be open at one time) Tohru said. Kyo didn't really care.

"I'll go get us pens" he said, walking bringing his school bag. As he did, he tripped on something and fell right on top of Tohru. POOF! Kyo transformed!

"Eh? Kyo-kun, you transformed! How come? I thought your curse was broken!"

Kyo was just as confused. "I guess it was only temporary." He whispered, saddened.

Tohru sensed this, and hugged him close to her chest, if he wasn't in cat form, he would be blushing in the reddest shade of red. "It's alright, Kyo-kun, you'll be free soon. I promise, I believe the curse is weakening. We're so close to breaking it. Please don't give up hope, Kyo-kun" She hugged him closer and kissed him on his forehead, letting tears fall out of her eyes. If it was possible, Kyo would have blushed harder.

Just as she let him go he transformed. This time, it was her turn to blush, he was right next to her and she saw him completely! Nor did it help, that all his clothes were on her lap.

"You can turn around now" he said. Tohru blushed even harder. As she turned around, she saw a blush on the neko's face as well; this only caused her to blush harder. He refused to look her in the eye.

They both sat down, on the desk a comfortable distance away. They put the book in front of them and the Rosetta paper in between them. They deciphered wordlessly. When they were halfway through, Tohru summoned her courage.

"Kyo-kun" he looked at her, "Are you mad at me? If I did something to offend you, I didn't mean it. I'm very sorry." she whispered, her eyes threatening to tear.

He put his pen down and let out an exasperated sigh. "Now, what would give you that idea?"

She started crying now. "You're more silent than usual, and you're avoiding even looking at me."

"Ech! That doesn't mean I'm mad at you! Why are you crying anyways? I was just thinking!"

"So, I didn't offend you?" Tohru asked hopefully.

"Of course not, what did you do anyway?" Kyo asked, Tohru blushed and he said "Oh…."

"Thank you, Kyo-kun! I'm so happy! I was really worried!" Tohru exclaimed. Kyo just shook his head and continued working. Tohru started too. But this time, they weren't silent. They talked quiet a lot!

In half an hour they had both finished. They put down they're pens. Then they began to read the two pages they had written.


Now, you may think being the zodiac Yazu-eh isn't too hard. It isn't, but the sad part is, the zodiac Yazu-eh, will also be reincarnated.

To put it in simpler terms, if god is an evil person who really hates his/her part in the curse, then they will abuse the future Yazu-ehs. They could completely use them for their own will!

I really wish I could undo what had happened, I am completely responsible for 15 people's lives now, and will be responsible for 15 people's life, for centuries if not millenniums to come. So, I'm going to search for the cure! No matter what! But this time, I don't think its going to take just a year.sigh

I guess I should figure out what sort of spell. That would certainly help. But, I can't just go and ask her!

Hmm, I guess I should examine Kesuke then, oh by the way, he has the curse of the rat. Ok, I should run some magical tests or something on it.

Page 3

I ran some tests on him, and you'll never believe what I found! Right below his belly button, I found this black spot. I pick up magic from there. He said he'd never seen it before! And funny thing is, the same thing is on my belly.

I looked at Kazauki's, the rabbit's, belly there's nothing there! But if I look at the cat or god they both have it as well! No one else has it. I think there's some sort of connection there. I think this may just have something to do with the cure for the curse1

I can't believe I've found out something so fast.

What I think is that when we are reincarnated, the future god, Yazu-eh, cat and rat will have a small black spot under their belly button. I hope its true, this may just help the curse break.


When Kyo finished reading, he was about to look under his belly button, but before he could he caught a glimpse of Tohru. She had fallen asleep. She must be tired, with her work and everything. She looked so peaceful, there was no way Kyo could wake her up, and he knew that.

He sighed, he couldn't take her to her room, for the fear of her transforming. But maybe, if he was careful, he could pick her up and put her on his bed. If he transformed however, she would wake up.

He slowly picked her up, bridal style, and took her to his bed, careful not to slip on anything. He put her down gently, and then examined her gentle features. "Tohru….." he whispered. He couldn't help himself. He leaned forward and planted a kiss on her forehead. As soon as he realized what he had done, he mentally cursed himself.

Then he stalked off to change in to his PJs. When he took off his shirt, he noticed something, a tiny black spot under his belly button.
