His eyes shot towards Shigure, glaring slightly, "Plans? You knew this was going to happen?"
The girl's eyes shot open quickly hearing his voice rise her claws sinking into the boy's leg as she let out a sad cry. "... It's happened or so I've heard where the cat's place would be taken by a girl all though from what I hear Akito-san always killed them."
Kyou narrowed his eyes more and reached out, grabbing Shigure by the collar and yanking his face closer, "Why didn't you stop her! Why didn't you tell me this so that I could stop her! What were you thinking you idiot!" Kyou's anger shown in his eyes.
"I didn't know she was planning on doing this! Beside its just stories I've heard..." Shigure looked to the male cat sadly now.
Kyou pushed against Shigure's chest to push him away, letting go of his collar. "Why'd you let her go to the estate? You're supposed to watch out for her when I'm not around or Yuki."
"She said she was going food shopping I never thought she would try anything like this..." The girl struggled moving into Kyou's lap her ears going down slowly.
Kyou's hands slowly lowered to rest on her back again.
She flinched at his touch. "... I'm sorry for what I did..."
"You always were stubborn...," he said as he sighed and looked down. Her eyes opened slowly before closing once more.
"Stubborn girl... why couldn't you just listen to us... and stay out of it... it was my punishment, not yours..." he whispered as he trailed a hand over her back slowly.
She only shivered at him now as she started to drift off again. "We can't keep her here Akito-sama must already realize what happened he'll have someone up here soon."
"They're not taking her back," he said as he glared up at Shigure. "I won't let them take her in my place..."
"... If the stories are true then she won't be taking your place..." He slowly reached down petting the weak cat.
"I won't let them take her, don't you get that? I'll go...," he said as he glanced down a bit.
"You think it'll stop them from killing her she's still cursed."
He growled softly, "They want me! I'm the real cat, let them have me... I'll make Akito swear to leave her alone... in exchange for my life... if it will save her..."
"... Kyou-kun you can't do this..." the man looked to the boy sadly. "... You'll put her under a lot of pressure if you leave she'll think its all because of her."
"She doesn't remember me anyway... what reason do I have to stay," he said as he slowly brushed his hand over the cat's back, hoping she was sleeping during this conversation.
"... Yeah, but she didn't seem to calm down until you came in the room..."
"At least she doesn't remember anything about me though... I have all my memories of her... and that just makes what she tried to do for me that much harder..."
"What if she starts to remember though she'll go looking for you."
"I just told you... I'll make him swear to me that he'll leave her alone in exchange for my life... I know he wants to be rid of me, why do you think he messes with her? He knows it'll draw me in and he'll get what he wants…"
"... If you let him win her life will end Akito-sama will never keep his promise."
"Damn it Shigure! You're not listening! The only reason he did this to her is because he wants to get to me! If I give myself to him, he'll have what he wants... he'll have no further use for her."
He stood slowly walking away from the cat. "You don't understand what Akito-sama wants."
"He wants the cat dead... that's all the head of the family ever wants... and he'll get that from me, not her..."
"She's the cat now..." Yuki walked in glaring at the two. "She'll suffer because of it just like you."
"She's not a Sohma, she has nothing to do with this family. Akito did this to her out of spite for the real cat... me..."
Yuki shook his head sadly. "... Get her upstairs so she can rest without us bickering like this." Kyou stood and slowly walked up the stairs, carrying her in and slamming the door behind him. Her eyes opened slowly as she looked to him sadly licking his hand.
He slowly brushed a hand over her back as he lay her on the bed. She curled up in the blankets to keep warm her eyes still focused on his. "... Are you going to abandon me...?"
