With the inspiration of my reviewers, thank you so much, I have come up with an idea for chapter 14. So here goes nothing, and sorry for the wait.
Tohru's Curse
Chapter 14:
Dreams and Nightmares!
Akito:
Akito awoke to find himself lying in a familiar bed. "Huh? How did I get here I swore I was at Shigure's house." Akito said in a low hoarse whisper.
"You fainted." Said a dark figure from the corner of the room, "I came and picked you up, you should really get some sleep… here drink this." Hatori said as he handed Akito a strange substance.
Akito fell asleep almost instantly. It was then that he had the nightmare.
It all started on a bright and sunny morning…
Kyoko:
Kyoko tossed and turned in her bed that night, remembering the past, the day of the accident. Her nightmare started with her waking up drowsy that morning. She was hoping to find one of Tohru's delicious breakfasts set on the table. Unfortunately, there was nothing but a dark kitchen. Shouldn't Tohru be up by now, her tests are today, I hope she didn't forget. But she couldn't have, it's so like Tohru to try her hardest, but she really shouldn't have stayed up so late studying… She walked into Tohru's room to find her sleeping. "Oh dear she must have been up all night. I'll just whisper a good-bye, and eat something from the cabinet. Kyoko walked into the small kitchen that was really a kitchenette and took out a breakfast bar, this will have to do until lunch. Kyoko whispered one last good-bye to Tohru and left the house. The car was having trouble starting that morning, but Kyoko finally managed to get the old car working, she backed out of the driveway and was on her way, eating a cereal bar.
Tohru:
Tohru had another good's night sleep the night after she had transformed again. She was having wonderful dreams. She was no longer cursed, and she was about to find out how to break the Sohma's curse when, some black hole thing popped up out of nowhere. She was sucked up into it and her good dreams transformed into nightmares. It started out when she was younger, about three and her father was saying his last words to her, "Tohru always remember me." Of course at the time she had no idea what he was talking about. But later she realized it and cherished those words. That wasn't so bad she thought not able to escape the nightmare. Then came her as a five year old and the taunting she received, "rice ball, rice ball." Next she saw herself as the demon 5 year-old, and the three thing combined, she was gnawing at her father, and he was calling her a stupid rice ball. Then came her mother' accident, and Akito's face popped up, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault."
Akito:
It all started on a bright and sunny morning, he was feeling especially good that day, and Hatori was going to let him out of the house, "Kureno, I don't know why I have to listen to Hatori, I am the head of the family right?" asked Akito. "Yes you are Akito, Hatori may be one of your "Servants" but he is your doctor." Said Kureno calm trying not to make Akito mad. "Kureno, do you know how to drive?" "Yes, Akito I do." "Will you teach me?" "If that's what you want Akito." Said Kureno wondering why Akito would want to, he has all of those servants.
Akito insisted on a dull black sports car, he wanted his own and one that would match him. With that settled the two men left the car dealership and hit the road. Akito had the time of his life, and drove everywhere. He even drove past the high school where Yuki went. He saw a girl there hanging out with A blonde and gothic girl. Huh, that sure is an interesting group, he thought. Then he saw a woman with bright orange hair walk up to the three and they all got in a group hug and started to walk away from the school. He left the idea hanging and drove off. He was going to get his license. The next couple days went by great and Akito now had his license, he convinced the people to skip the learners permit. He was having so much fun, when Hatori came to his room. Akito, you are going to have to stay inside the main house for awhile, you are not well. Akito was angered and rushed out of the room into his car and drove off out of the main house and onto the main road. It was in the morning, and he was happy to get away from Hatori and the others of the main house, they were always bugging him about his health. I wish they would just leave me the heck alone, he thought. But his anger controlled him and he took off at a great speed. He saw the yellow light and wanted to make it through as a dare. He ended up missing it and having an accident.
Kyoko:
The little car was coughing a little and then stopped, it was running fine now. I sure do hope that I am not late, that would be horrible. Kyoko, not wanting to be late sped up and tried to make the yellow light, she missed it and slowed down. She waited impatiently for the light to change, and as soon as it did she hit the gas petal and her engine started like it used to when she had a bike. She took off, and then everything went blank. The last thing she saw was a dull black car coming towards her with a laughing maniac in it. Now that she wasn't in the accident she saw what really happened from a bird's eye view. The license plate on the car said, AKITO'S #1. And on the back Sohma. She was amazed at what she saw. The same family that her daughter was living with the same family that was related to the man that had forced her into a building, was taking care of her daughter.
Akito: Akito then saw Kyoko in the car, then his entire brain went blank, and he woke up. "Huh?" It was Hana, she was standing in his door. She looked really scary, and then there was a zap. Akito lay in his bed shocked, his eyes wide, his hair filled with smoke, and his clothes ragged. "That's not the worst of it
Akito!" Hana said as she disappeared into the darkness, Akito fainted once again.
There, that was Okay, I guess, not the best, but better than nothing. I'm glad that I was able to come up with this much. And if any of you have read past book 13 or so I don't know what happens, or if this is totally not true, or if this is not even mentioned in the future stories, so sorry if it is on the wrong key. I will try to update soon, by good computer is still virus infested, or at least I think so. So I may have a hard time trying to download this onto the Internet sorry for the inconvenience, Thanks Again for the reviews! They were great! Keep on reviewing, and I hope to have at least another 4 or 5 before I post again, but that is mostly depending on you as the reviewers. Pleas READ AND REVIEW!
