Tohru stepped into the cool home, carefully removing her shoes at the door, holding onto the door frame for support. Laying them aside she moved out od the way for Yuki to walk and and he did the same. Stepping inside he guided her further in. They moved into the main room where Kyo sat lazily, his eyes closed. He had signes of beginning bruises on his knees and arms. A cut ran across his cheek. His breathing came regular and Tohru was sure he was sleeping until a firery gaze opened up catching her staring.

"What are you gaping at?" He said his voice still the same cool voice. He didn't seemed annoyed by the fact she was looking at him for so long.

Jumping back in surprise she rose her hands in defence, "I wasn't meaning to be rude or anything! but those cuts...I mean.. they look pretty bad, are you okay?" Tohru said in her normal fast squeaky voice.

"I'm fine," He said standing stiffly up. Tohru noticed he was doing everything not to notice Yuki who stood beside her. Maybe they had had a fight again. She wouldn't be surprised if they had. She hated it when they fought with one another, but they did so reguarly.

"Getting beat up by a girl again, how pathetic," Yuki scoffed breaking through the silence.

"Shut up, you damn rat! I'd like to see you take on Kagura when shes like that. Shes like a mad woman, I'm surprised Akito hasn't sent her to a home yet.

Yuki's eyes darkened with rage, but before he could say anything a loud whistle screamed through the house and they all jumped in shock. The thumping of feet was heard and Kagura exploded into the doorway. "The tea is ready, come get some!" She exclaimed.

They all looked hesitent to follow her, seeing the Tohru smiled, "Thank you Kagura, I'm sure it will be delicious." She followed after a happy Kagura after hearing this into the eating room. There were four places set. Most people would have puta spot at each side each, but Kagura had set a spot on the end, a spot on the right side of the table, and then two places on the left, leaving the other end empty. Tohru soon relized what it was for. Kagura ran over sitting at the side with two places set.

"Kyo come sit with me!" She exclaimed pointing to the place next to her as Yuki and Tohru took their seats. He was the only one remaining and he reeled back in disgust.

"Like I woukd ever want to sit with you" he snapped leaning against the door frame smiling. His cockiness soon dissolved as a flash of pure anger ran across Kagura's eyes threatenly. Walking over he sat down next to her, scooting farth away whenever she wasn't looking. After a while it became extremely noticable and Kagura wasn't happy.

"I made this tea for you, because I love you sooo much, and you keep running away, my darling." She said in a heartbroken voice. Her eyes were sad, they looked like a long lost puppy who had just been kicked. That ended soon. For as she did this she had laid her hand on his knee and he jumped away at the touch. "KYO! SIT DOWN!" she screamed chaning her mood from puppy to Cerberous. He reeled back in surprise, but didn't go far, for she got hold of the neck line of his shirt pulling him roughly backdown onto the floor with a sickning thud."Drink your tea," she said calmly sipping hers.

Doing as told he obediently sat beside her and hesitently drank his tea.

The door slid open and Shigure stepped in. Everyone looked up in surprise at the sudden movement. His eyes widened then closed happily. "Tohru!" he exclaimed running over to her hugging her tightly. A poof sounded and a black dog was laying on her. It grinned sheepishly, "Sorry about that, but i missed you so much, oh! our dear Tohru has come back to us!" the dog said before stepping off her and sitting in front of her, wagging its tail.

"Oh, thank you! I'm so happy to be back here!" she responded smiling gratefully.

The dog nodded before a crack sounded and Shigure was back to normal, quickly slipping into his clothes. Tohru spun away, her cheeks flaming until he was clothed. Sitting down next to her he grinned mysteriously. "I have a surprise for all of us, like a welcome back present to our dear Tohru."

"What is it?" Kyo said looking up from his tea he had obidiently been drinking.

"Its a surprise, and that isn't fun if i tell."

"Just tell us," Yuki chimed in a dull tone before sipping his tea.

"Oh all right, since you asked. We are going to the beach, not a Sohma beach..we don't need anymore trouble from them. We are going to a local beach and staying in a hotel, Kagura is comming with us also.Tohru needs some kind of female companion while we are there." Shigure exclaimed happily

A long silence went out before Kyo spoke up. "Shes comming.."

"Yes."

The tea cup dropped from Kyo's hands onto the table with a thud. Standing up, brushing off his pants he stalked out of the room scowling. Kagura followed quickly in pusuit.

"Well, I think its wonderful! Only, I don't have a bathing suit." Tohru commented.

"Kagura has an extra, you look about her size, I'm sure it will fit." Shigure concluded standing up, Yuki and Tohru did the same. "well lets get cleaned up, we have a big day tomorrow!" He said and they all filed out.
