-1Authors note: Thanks for all the reviews. Keep em coming J! And I do take all suggestions into consideration, a little constructive critics never hurt no one. Right? For some reason I'm having a probably getting the bold and italics to transfer from the program I was using. If they don't show up this time around , I'll figure something else out. Well on with the story….Lets see if Hatori can keep it a secret from Akito.
Again just a few basic things. Nothing knew added to this chapter.
Chapter 6: Hatori and Akito
"Master Akito, is ready for his check up" A maid said, jerking the doctor out of his train of thoughts.
"Tell him I'll be there momentarily " Standing up and putting his coat on. His lets out a deep sigh. Akito, probably isn't even sick. He is just going to get me in there and question me about Thoru. He started out towards Akitos part of the house and his thoughts drifted to her. When he had called Shigures this morning. Yuki had done left for school and Kyo was running late. Shigure had some surprising news about the cat, he had spent the night sleeping in a car beside her bed and had tried to make he0r eat this morning. She refused to eat and was sitting in her bed still bundled up staring at a picture of her mom and softly crying. Kyo has certainly surprised me, I figured Yuki would be the one that would be right by her side, on the other hand it was usually Yuki that had picked her up from work. And surely he too had noticed that Kyo was able to hold her without transforming, at least he was last night. He mused. He told shigure that he would be over there in the late morning after checking on his business at the main house. Shigure also said he needed to talk to him about something. And mentioned maybe Yuki would come around surely she is wondering if she has done something wrong and him not seeing her would make it worse, Kyo was going to the Dojo after school. He opened the door to Akitos room.
"There is my dragon, I knew you wouldn't forget me" Akito said sitting by the window in a long kimono giving him a cold smile. "You didn't stay at that dogs house last night did you?"
"No Akito-san I came back home." Hatori said bowing slightly. "We need to begin the check up."
"You want to check on her don't you, you would rather be with her right now than me" He accused
"She was hurt badly, Akito" He begin the usual morning examination.
"You won't tell me exactly how though will you, Hatori, tell me did the little bitch get hit by a car perhaps like her mother" Smiling evilly.
"No"
"No, I'm your god dragon, I can make you tell me."
Hatori started suddenly not liking the tone that his voice had taken. He silently prayed that, he wouldn't cause her more pain. "This is something that should be between the patient and his doctor."
Giving Hatori and evil smile. As he stretched. "Very well, I suppose this confidence has been extended to Shigures little family though, one of them will tell me. Whatever it was though the little bitch deserved it. I have half a mind to tell Shigure that the invitation to live at his house has expired and see how she ends up."
Hatori said nothing, having learned from bitter experience to not try and defy or argue with his master, for it would make the punishment on his victim that much worse.
"yes, put her out on the street, with her memories of course…or not when you go see the gorgon, tell Shigure I want him to visit this afternoon." Akito ordered. "And Hatori I would like it very much if you would join me for dinner tonight. She apparently survive the night, she wont need you tonight and I am going to."
Hatori nodded before leaving.
Who does that little bitch think she is. Not only had she succeeded in almost alienating the rat form her. Her favorite, Shigure, had even cut back his visit. And all he hears from Kisa and Momiji is Tohru-this and Tohru that. Akito thought angrily as he reached his hand out for a bird, who swiftly landed on his hand. As for the cat, well I don't care one way or the other, except the cat has seemed happier and more relaxed lately and that just won't do. Yes this girl must be punished but first I have to find out what exactly is wrong with her. There was a mall flutter in his hand, he looked down and noticed he was squeezing the bird. He continued squeezing the bird till he heard small pops thinking of how nice it would be to this to Thoru Honda. No one comes between me and my family. Dropping the dead bird into the yard below.
Hatori walked quickly back to his office to get some medicine and fresh bandages. He would have to warn Shigure, to not defy Akito, but to make it sound not so serious. Surely even Akito wouldn't do that her, put her out on the street. Then again he was sure if he did one of her friends would take her in. But it was her mind he feared for. God only knows what kind of sick punishments that Akito would cook up for the poor child, he thought smirking yeah only god knows.
