(Yuki's POV)
They had soon gotten out of school and Sayuri and Usagi walked with them home. They were just passing an ally when Sayuri saw something and ran down. Yuki followed her first and found that she had seen a body of a dark black haired man on the ground who was barely conscious and had blood gushing out of abdomen. Her face was full of tears and sorrow as she hugged him close then a weakened voice spoke.
"Sa...Sayuri? Is that you you stupid cat?" He said this and smiled some before he coughed up some blood.
"Kane...I..I need to get you to a hospital...but first...who did this to you?"
He laughed some weakly and Yuki listened unbelievingly.
"You should know of all people, it was the one who murdered Rina right after she murdered Sana right in front of you. I even remember ho-" He was interrupted as he suddenly began coughing up blood.
"S..s...Sayuri...I...I'm-m-m sorry..."
He fell limp and his body started to become stiff and cold and right then and there she knew she was dead. Yuki's voice came softly and yet suddenly.
"Sayuri? He called you a stupid cat. What did that mean?" Yuki looked discomforted and confused.
"That...is because my family...it is cursed just like yours is...but it gets worse!" She looked up frowning at him with tears in her eyes.
"How does it...How does it get worse?"
"Meet me later in my room, I will tell you the story. It's too long to tell here." She flipped a cell phone open and speed dialed a number.
Yuki looked confused at her.
"Who are you calling?"
"My cousin, She'll take care of Kane's remains...Hello? Ryuu? Yes! I found another one. This time it's Kane. Yeah, I know it makes no sence...Yes, they were engaged...Just shut the fuck up and go down the alley 3 blocks south from the school we teach at!" She hung the phone up angrily and shoved it in her coat pocket.
"So Miss Ryuu Yori is your cousin? And Usagi?"
She smiled over at him some.
"She's my little sister. She's crazy huh?" She smiled at him and cupped his cheek with her hand. "So far you've always kept calm and collected like nothing was ever hardly wrong...your just like her...Just like Sana, my rival. I was angry after she'd died you know...angry that now I could never beat her"
Yuki's eyes widened as she kissed him on the cheek.
"Miss Yori-San...but...why?"
She smiled grabbing his hand and leading him out of the alley where everyone else was waiting.
"Hey Sayuuuriiiiii! Can you make your famous chocolate chip cookies and cakes and candies? CAN YOU, CAN YOU PLEEEEEEAAAAASE!!!"
"Sigh, I guess if you put it that way, sure, why not?"
"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?" Kyo was shouting in a rage. Those two fucking brats Momiji and Usagi are fucking hyper enough without sugar you fucking bi-"
Sayuri grabbed Kyo's tongue out of his mouth and held it firmly.
"Watch your tongue stupid neko!"
She then, much to Yuki's delight, she lead Kyo all the way home by his tongue. She let go of it soon though so she could open the door. Shigure had a mallet in his hand and he was fixing to swing when he noticed it was people that he knew plus one hyper blonde girl that he didn't know. Yuki noticed the mallet right away.
"Uggh, Shigure? Why are you holding a mallet like that?" Yuki questioned pointing directly at the giant hammer.
Shigure sweat dropped and scratched his cheek with one finger.
"And why do you have a sweatdrop on the side of your head?" Sayuri pointed at it and Shigure took it and threw it in a nearby garbage can.
"Umm, you guys, I got a death threat telling us to stay away from the Yori family. Sayuri, do you know who might have done this?"
Her eyes widened and she looked speechless.
"Sayuri?" Yuki poked her questioning. "Sayuri?"
"SAYURI!!!" Usagi jumped on top of her and before she could think she zipped herself around and pounded Usagi on top of the head making her whine and cry. Soon she stopped and Sayuri looked at him questioning.
"Shigure? What form did this yes-"
Sayuri was cut off by a loud knocking at the door and then an abrupt entrance of Ayame. He hugged Yuki tightly to his displeasure, but soon found troubles of his own.
"COOKIES!!! GIMME COOKIES!!!"
"Why who is this?" He looked down to see Usagi's arms and legs wrapped tightly around one of his legs. Usagi looked up as he looked down at her.
"Cookie please!"
"I'm sorry little girly, I have no cookies."
"WHHAAAAAA!!! I WANT COOKIIIIEEESSSS!!! WHHHHHHAAAAAA HHHHAAAAAAHHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"
Kyou had had enough now since Usagi was even worse then Momiji he grabbed her by the hair making her cry louder to his miserable discovery and then took her to a corner where she stayed and quieted down to a hush.
'Wow..' Kyou thought for a minute ' That's probably why Sayuri puts everyone in corners.'
(Kyou's POV)
Something was fishy about these new people suddenly showing up in the Sohma family and it wasn't trout, bass or salmon. It was something suspicious. Kyou heard a knocking coming from the door and ran to answer it but the damn rat hit him out of the way and opened the door first. It was a delivery guy who wore suspiciously dark sun glasses.
"I have a package for Miss Sayuri Yori."
"Ah, that's me!"
Sayuri smiled as she walked, but then clumsily tripped falling on the man and as soon as he was on the ground a fog surrounded them much like when one of the Sohma's transformed. The man got up fine but the only thing left was Sayuri's clothing. Yuki took the package and sighed as he shut the door.
"Sayuri? Where are you?" He called out.
A white cat hoped from underneath a staircase and looked up at me then jumped onto my shoulder where it sat there purring loudly. Yuki came over to me looking at the cat expectantly.
"Miss Sayuri? What are you doing sitting on Kyo's shoulder?"
The cat simply meowed an odd sounding meow then hopped off my shoulder and Yuki ran after it stupidly with Sayuri's clothes. I guess Kyo was stupid too because he ran after it too.
(Hatsuharu's POV)
Just then a black cat appeared from behind a staircase and was looking around for anyone who might be around who could help her. She clawed at Haru's leg digging her claws in as deep as she could t get his attention.
"What the hell?!" He'd shouted and kicked her away.
She hissed at him in a peculiar way that he couldn't ignore and soon he picked her up taking her on the back porch. She blushed a little before poofing back into herself...only one problem, she was naked. She hastily covered herself up with the corner of this page that you will not be able to see thanks to her.
"H...Haru-San? Can I please borrow your jacket please!?" She looked worried and why shouldn't she be? She was naked except for a black beaded bracelet on one wrist and another bracelet identical to Kyo's
He smirked some at the possibilities then decided it best to wrap her in his white jacket which she quickly wrapped around herself. She smiled up at him.
"Thank You Haru."
She kissed him on the cheek and hugged him making him blush some and left for her room. He looked down and something was pointing up at him. Now as I am writing this Sayuri smudged the ink when she covered herself with my page so I can't say what really was pointing up at Haru, but you get the idea.
