Haruhi woke up screaming, tears streaming down her face. Yuki, Kyo, Shigure and Tohru rushed into the room in a panic to find her sitting there staring ahead into nothingness. She was pulling at her hair, clawing her nails down the side of her face until it bled. Yuki and Kyo through there arms around her to get her to stop moving, while Shigure out his hands on the he sides of her face to get her to calm down and look at him. Tohru stood in hey he door way not knowing what to do.

"Tohru go call Hatori, now!" He screamed at her and she ran quickly, down the stairs to the phone. She called him and he picked up after what felt like hours.

"Tohru? What's wrong it's three in the morning?" He asked.

"It's Haruhi, something's happening to her."

He cursed before saying, "I will be there in a few minutes. Make sure she doesn't hurt herself."

Upstairs the three were holding Haruhi down on the he bed. Yuki had her arms, and Kyo had her legs while Shigure tried to calm her down.

When Tohru walked in she gasped at the sight. "Let me go!" Haruhi snarled.

"Haruhi, calm down." Shigure said, "it's alright your with your family."

"I need to get outside. He's coming for me!" She screamed nearly making the four present death. A loud banging came from downstairs and Hatori ran into the room with Hatsuharu and Momiji behind him. Momiji was trying to comfort Tohru, who was now freak out and Hatsuharu was helping hold Haruhi down on the bed.

"Who's coming for you Haruhi?" Hatori asked slowly.

"Akito, Akito wants to brand me again. It will make it worse!" She yelled nearly throwing all of them off.

"That won't ever happen again. Haruhi now calm down," he said gently. He out his hand on her forehead. "She's burning up. Water, someone get me cold water!" Tohru and Momiji disappeared to go find some water.

"It burns, it burns!" Haruhi yelled. She arched her back trying to not let it touch the ground.

"Shit! You need to turn her onto her stomach." They did as told gentle turning her over. Hatori got out a pair of scissor and begun to cut away her shirt so that only her undergarments remained on. Any other time and Yuki, Kyo and Haru would have turned away blushing, but not this time. In the centre of Haruhi's back the word monster was branded. It was glowing red and all the skin surrounding it was glowing red, as if it had just been done.

"What's that?" Tohru asked upon seeing the mark. She put the water down next to the bed, gasping.

"Momiji, you need to get her out of here! Now!" Momiji didn't hesitate. He pulled Tohru until they were out of the room and sat down outside the door. Tohru burst into tears at the screams of agony that were coming from inside the door. She covered her ears with her hands and Momiji put his arm around her and tried to get her to calm down, not working one bit, he turned into a rabbit and she hugged him with all her might.

Inside Hatori was pouring the freezing water over Haruhi's burning skin. She screamed out in pain and tried to get away from them, she managed to throw Haru off and gave him a black eye in the process, and head butted Yuki, she also was able to kick Shigure were the sun don't shine. But she wasn't able to get away. "Haru, get me my case!" Haru ran off to get the case and came back opening it for Hatori. Hatori once again put cold water over the burn and there was steam coming off her back in heaps. She screamed again but once the steam had cleared, he could make out deep cuts that outlined the letters. He pulled a needle and thread from his case and begun to thread it through her skin to close up the bleeding cuts. She kept screaming and kicking at the ones who held her, but she still did not succeed in breaking free. He finished doing the stitching and once again poured ice water over her back to cool it. Another cloud of steam worded into the air as he proceed to apply a special burn cream to the wound, before bandaging her back and stomach. By now she had stopped kicking and screaming, she was merely lying in the bed enduring the pain that rippled through her. That was until she fell asleep, after. All it was 3:30 in the morning . He got the others to leave the room and turned her over. He then covered her up before calling the others back in to see her. He called Tohru and Momiji in as well. Momiji. Was now in human form and Tohru had calmed down, although her eyes were red from crying.

Once they were all in the room he looked at them all and with a tired expression, "She will be alright." He said.

They sighed in unison and the room was silent except for the sound of the pelting rain outside. The silence was broken by the sound of Tohru crying, "what was that?" She asked visibly shaking. Momiji hugged her turning into a rabbit, she just hugged him.

"I will explain," Hatori said, "but not here. Downstairs so we won't wake her." They made there way out the door, all except Kyo and Yuki that is.

"Someone needs to watch her." They said when the group turned around.

"Just go Yuki, I will take the first shift." Kyo said, "you need to rest after all this." Kyo had said it gently, knowing how tired Yuki was. They hated each other's guts, but if there was one thing they had in common, it was wanting to protect Haruhi.

Yuki left with the others, Kyo watching to make sure nothing happened. He pulled up a seat next to the bed and grabbed her hand. "You are gonna be ok Haruhi." He said.

Downstairs everyone was gathered at the table. Shigure disappeared to make some coffee that everyone needed badly.

"So… What just happened?" Tohru asked, not looking up from her hands.

"As you well know the wolf is one of the forgotten zodiacs." Hatori begun. "There are several others as well, the ferret, the shark, the crab and there are others as you can image. Either way the forgotten zodiacs are usually ostracised as soon as they can walk. However Haruhi was special, Akito liked her. She was, still is Akito's pet because she was born who she is, and she is a wolf." The room was silent. Everyone was staring down, not daring to meet another's eyes as the story was told. "You know that Akito has a temper and he takes it out on us. Being by his side at all times meant that she would be the one who suffered the most. But she was ok with that as long as no one else was hurt in the process. When Haruhi was six years old she transformed into her true form in front of him. He went berserk and before anyone could stop him he branded Haruhi with the word "Monster" to make sure that she would never forget what she is and who she belongs to. Every three years since then this has happened, it is usually accompanied by a nightmare that she wakes from screaming. Three years ago when this happened Haruhi nearly killed herself and several other people while saying, "he's coming for me, he's coming for me." We had to restrain her then as well. We should have known this was coming but we let it slip our minds."

Aside from the sound of the rain everything was silent. Hatori wouldn't look at anyone and no one would look at him. Momiji even in rabbit form looked like he was about to cry, Haru was staring down at his cup not wanting to look up, Shigure was silent and serious faced, but he too refused to look at anyone and Yuki looked like he was about to scream, his hands were turning white from clenching his cup to much and with a boom it smashed apart in his hands. Everyone looked at Yuki as he stood up from his seat and left the house. Another loud bang as he kicked the door down, but no one went after him. Everyone had there own way of dealing with things and this was his. Even Haru didn't move.

"Well," Shigure said trying to smile but failing. "I think that we should all get some sleep, it's been along night after all. Tohru could you help me prepare some beds for everyone." He stood up and Tohru went after him. Soon everyone went to there respected rooms. Outside there were sounds of breaking trees and the occasional scream of anger. No one slept that night, not in that at house anyway. It may have been because of the screams or the sound of carnage but it was probably because of worry over Haruhi.
