Note: Okay, so I got the next chappie out within a week! Whoop! It's partly to make up for the other chapter that I didn't get out until, like, a month or something later.

Special thanks to The Girly Man! Love ya! (Not that way you perv! Lol.)

"What's YER name, boy?" the man demanded of the pissed Cat. He didn't answer, but just glared intently. "Well...? Or will I have to show you how to treat your elders!" The lady waved her purse dangerously close to Kyo's face, and he grabbed for it, but missed.

"You tryin' to steal my purse, foo'! Now that you've run into me and broken my bling!" she bellowed once again.

"B-bling...?" Kyo stammered, a terrified look in his eye. The lady glared and pulled out a broken chain. On the end of it was a gigantic golden plate that read gaudily, "Sexy Bitch". Everyone around stared, their eyes all huge.

"T-that's yours...?" Tohru looked horrified as she asked the question. After the momentary shock, Shigure busted out laughing. He rolled on the ice, cried, and did other things that made Hatori mutter "Idiot" under his breath numerous times. Little did the Dog know, the woman had now directed her attention to HIM, and not Kyo. If looks could kill, she'd be convicted of murder. She wasn't that good-looking, either.

"So you think it's funny for me to be gangsta! I can't live without my bling, homie! But I'll take care of this one, dear," she smirked, dragging a still-laughing Shigure through the snow.

"Well, that takes care of him," mumbled an amused Kyo.

"And now you! What do you think is going to happen now, huh, kid?" the man asked, glaring. Kyo thought of lots of things that could happen to him. What had happened to Haru? And who the hell was this guy! Kyo decided he should ask about that.

"Who the hell are you!"

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me. I want to know your name!"

"Well, I don't usually tell this to people, but since I'm about to kick your ass, I might as well." Kyo gave him a dirty glare at this comment, but didn't say anything after seeing the look on Tohru's worried face.

"My name is Cho!" he yelled looking a little embarrassed. This time it was Kyo who busted out in laughter.

"C-cho! Ahahaha! A girl's name! Hehe..." he laughed, wiping off the tears from his eyes. "Hee-hee..." The giggling abruptly stopped, though, when Kyo found that Cho was towering over him.

(Note: At least to my understanding, Cho is a girl's name meaning "butterfly". If anyone knows someone w/ the name Cho and I have offended them, please tell me and I can change it! But that explains why Kyo is laughing so much...)

"And why is that so funny? Hmm...? I'll kill you!" he screamed when Kyo couldn't stifle the new laughter bubbling up in him.

In result, the ice skating rink turned into a fighting arena. Kyo's laughter had finally subsided (thank the Lord!) and he was ready to fight for his right to stay in the rink.

"Don't think I'll go easy on you just because your old!"

"That's what I like to hear!" Cho replied triumphantly. And so the battling began. Kyo made the first attack, assuming that would be all it took, but was proven wrong; Cho had easily countered the attack, grabbed his foot, and started dragging Kyo.

"Don't think that this is over!" Kyo growled. He then got out from Cho's grip and the two continued punching and kicking and blocking until they had made their way out of the lake and onto the street.

"W-wait! Kyo-kun! You're going to far! Come back!" Tohru yelled, but no luck.

"Three down, five to go," Ayame stated with interest. "But my beloved brother will not leave! I will stay by his side FOREVER!"

"Go...away..." Yuki muttered, worn out. Hatori immediately pulled out medical supplies out of nowhere and started checking the Rat for any signs of unhealthiness.

"Stop, Hatori, I'm just tired," was Yuki's reply.

"It's my job." Neither of them noticed that Ayame has skillfully disappeared.

"My dear, dear Tohru-kun! I fear for my dear brother's life, and I would hope that you would help me in watching out for him! You'll do it? Okay!" Ayame exclaimed to Tohru all in one breath.

"Uhmm...okay," Tohru said quietly, a little dazed.

"Can I help too, Ayame-oji-chan?" Kisa asked.

"Well, I WOULD let you help, but I think that Momiji has a job for you. Run along now!" he replied, as Kisa nodded, smiled, and skated away quietly.

'Now then, my plan is working! I only want the best for dear Yuki!' Ayame thought joyfully, strutting/ skating around the rink to bother Hatori.

'So I need to look out for Yuki. It makes sense; that man was dangerous! But why me?' Tohru was deep in thought as she skated. So deep in thought that she didn't notice Momiji coming up behind her.

"TOHRUUUUUU!"

"Eep! Momiji-kun, you startled me!"

"I'm sorry! I just wanted to see if you knew where Kisa was! Do you?"

"Eh? I thought...Kisa was with you! Ayame-san said that you had something for her to do..." Tohru looked confused, and Momiji mirrored her face.

"Hmm...maybe Ayame had a reason...or maybe he thought that I did. But I can't find her!"

"Let's ask if anyone's seen her. It might help!"

"Okay!" The pair were about to go and look around for the Tiger, when all of a sudden...

"Stupid woman. You don't even know how to keep track of a kid?" Momiji and Tohru, startled, turned around to see Hiro standing with his normal Hiro-like attitude. "And then you can't find her in this place? I mean, come on, it's not THAT hard! You're terrible with kids," he continued, receiving sorry looks from Tohru.

"I'm pathetic, I know...but we have to look for her! Would you like to help, Hiro-san?" Torhu asked, smiling.

"Fine. But when you fall, don't come cryin' to me for help. I don't like to be seen with stupid women who recite sermons and apologies all the time."

"O-okay!" And so it was decided; the "Great Search for Kisa" was on.

Author's closing:

Okay, so this chapter was kinda scattered, I know. It's kinda setting everything up for later chapters. I'm currently looking for some ideas for scenarios, so if you have any, I may use them! I'm not OUT of ideas, just so you know. Just looking for some more. I believe in reader participation! .

I'll probably be getting out the next chappie AT LEAST in the next two weeks; report cards and finals are coming up. And extra-evil Algebra! xP

But I'll try my best to get everything written up.

Thanks for the reviews and support! --Edakumi .
