Tohru's Curse

Chapter 16:

A Great Start?

Tohru stepped out of the train and smelt the fresh air. She was so stiff. She started to walk towards the information center when there was a bang, then "poof!"

Tohru only could see what was happening before a second past and she was lying on the ground in a bundle of clothes. The man that had run into her, was looking around curiously for the person he had run into when he just walked away, leaving Tohru there all alone to fend for herself in a small rice ball form. Although it took hours Tohru managed to get everything hidden, she was so tired after the long hours that she fell right asleep ignoring her surroundings.

Kyo was on the next train with the few things that he had, and eager to get to the destination. Eventually he fell asleep and dreamt of Tohru. There was a small bang when he noticed that they had finally arrived.

"I sure do hope that this is the place. That train ride was so long, I can't believe how stiff I got. I really hope that if Tohru rode that train the she didn't hurt herself, or get lost, or fall over, or… Ahh, I got to stop worrying about these things, Tohru will be fine…"

Kyo walked and walked searching the entire place, when a thought came into his head; maybe she hadn't left and was at a friend's house. He was about to get on the returning train an hour later when he caught a glimpse of a pile of clothes, not thinking much about it he walked over their and saw Tohru, in her rice form, laying atop of the clothes.

"Tohru!" Kyo gasped when he saw the small figure. Oh no, she probably didn't even think about her curse until the second it happened.

Kyo quickly gathered up the clothes and bags and started to walk towards the information center. He had to find a place to get Tohru back to normal and not in front of everyone.

"Uh, yah, there's a hotel around here somewhere, here take a map." said the lazy teenager.

Kyo took it and started walking until he found one. Kyo walked up to the counter and opened his mouth when...

"Hey, you kid, I've been looking everywhere for you…"

Shigure and Yuki left the main house a couple hours later after visiting some of the residents. They were happy to be home, when they realized that Tohru wasn't there. Fortunately there was a note in the dining room talking about Tohru's lunch, the really delicious one, and Shigure and Yuki's faces lit up. They ate in peace. No Kyo or anything, the only thing, Yuki thought, that would make this dinner better is if Tohru could have been here.

Hana snuck into the main house again that night without being seen. She climbed through Akito's open window and stood in the corner waiting for him to wake up. After waiting a while she decided to use Plan B; wake him up herself. She walked over to him and whispered in her most hoarse voice, "AAKKIITTOO…"

Akito shivered and woke up, his eyes staring right into Hana's. He was about to scream when she covered his mouth. His arms flailed trying to get her hand of his mouth, she zapped him and he was still. Finally he settled down, and immediately she started asking him questions, threatening him if he didn't answer.

Kyo looked around trying to find out where the voice was coming from. Then a guy with a tag that said manager came up to him and said, "Where the heck have you been Koy."

"Koy? Sir you must be mistaken I'm not Koy, I'm Kyo."

"Stop fooling with me and get back to work. I mean it this time when I say it, do the work or you're fired!"

Oh I just love cliff hangers; it's only good to have them if you have someone who updates quickly. I don't like when people throw in a cliff hanger and don't update for a week, oh the Torture! Sorry that this chapter wasn't so long… Thanks for reading and please review, you reviewers are doing great. Anyways thanks again for the reviews, and please review for Chapter 16: A Great Start?
