"Akito-" said Shigure surprised "I didn't expect you to show up here."

"I decided to pay a visit to that dear Tohru of yours." he said with an evil glint in his eyes. "Is she taking visiters right now?"

"She might be asleep." Shigure said slowly as he began to suspect something was up. "She is going to return to school tomarrow so that she doesn't fail the term."

"I see." said Akito. "Well then I guess I will just have to up there and check on her.

Before Shigure could refuse, Akito pushed his way past Shigure and began his ascend to Tohru's room.

Tohru lay, sleeping, as Akito strode over to her side.

"Tohru..." he whispered lowly. "How have you been?"

"Hm?" she mumbled as she came to. When she saw Akito, she stiffened and became wide eyed.

"Did you miss me?" he asked with a cruel smile upon his face.

"Wh-why a-are you h-here?" Tohru managed to push out.

"Oh," he said. "I have come to see you. I heard that you were dreaming up a storm. I came to see if you were dreaming..." He smirked "of me."

"O-oh. no! I was dreaming of... my mother." she smiled shyly, trying to divert his attention. " You know, post trauma! It's a doosy!"

"I don't believe it." he said simply, no longer smiling. Akito leaned over Tohru until thier noses were less than an inch apart. Tohru's eyes grew wide. "Did you honestly think that i would leave you alone?"

"Why are you doing this to me?" she asked quietly, but inside she wanted to scream for help. Shigure would be up in in less than a minute, but she didn't want anyone to get hurt. Tohru was aware that Akito had a history of violence.

"I want you away from the Sohmas." he hissed at her.

"B-but-" she looked down. She had the feeling that something like this would happen, but she wished it wouldn't have. "I need these guys. They're all I have left. My mom and my dad have passed away, and I couldn't just ask to move back in with my grandfather. Please..." she pleaded "Please let me stay."

The tear began to bud at the corners of her eyes, but she refused to let him see her in such a pitiful state.

"Oh, I see." he hissed, no longer smiling, but instead his brow was furrowed. " You think you can just march in, and then expect to be able to stay. I think not."

Akito grabbed Tohru by the collar and slammed her against the wall. She cried out in fear and fright.

Please, she thought, let Shigure hear that!

"There's talk around the Sohma house, that your the one who can break the curse." He glared down at her while she tried to keep from looking into his ever furious gaze. "If you really are the cure, then cure me." The hatred went from anger to maddness. "I don't want to die." he said with his jaw clenched.

His hold un Tohru became so tight that she couldn't breathe. She tried to wriggle free, but his grip was iron.

"Akito." said Shigure tensely from the doorway. " I think it's time you leave."

"Good bye my darling." said Akito as he released his grip on her. "This will not be our last meeting, and don't forget that."

She strode out of the room as Shigure ran over to the shocked Tohru.

"are you alright?" he asked her with a very concerned look in his eye.

"yes, I'm fine." answered Tohru.

After Shigure was convinced that Tohru was just fine, he let her be. But thoughts of what Akito said bothered Tohru horribly. Was he still going to 'defile' her? Did he honestly think that Tohru could break the Sohma cure? And if she really could, what would become of her?
