Shigure's Room...

"What do you want Shigure?" asked Ayumi

"Close the door first." said Shigure

Ayumi closed the door behind her.

"So, Akito finally let you out, huh?"

"No, escaped from that dump.I couldn't take anymore of Akito's crap."

"Tell me, how did you escaped?"

"It was easy. It's not ike the main house was filled with ripped bodyguards. I climbed out of the window from the bathroom. Amazing I could fit through it, wearing nothing but a ripped kimono. I found some clothes by a window. And then I ran like hell."

"You know Akito won't be happy with this. Do know what will happen to you when she finds out that you're gone?"

"I know. I'm going to be in hiding for a few I was wondering if you'll let me stay during that time."

"I'd be putting my life in danger for this, but...You needed to get out of there."

"Thank you so much." Ayumi said happily.

"But we have to discuss your living arrangements. Especially with Hatori."

"Ugh...He's going to kill me. And since when are you so generous Shigure?"

"You know you are like a sister to me Ayumi. And I swore to Hatori, that I'll protect you forever."

"Yes, I know that."

"And as for a bed you could share a room with Tohru."

"No, no! I'll be okay sleeping somewhere else!" Ayumi said.

Then a light knock came at the door.

"Come in."said Shigure

Ayumi stepped to the side to let whoever it was through.

It was Tohru.

"Um. Excuse me for interrupting. I was overhearing about your sleeping arrangements and um...It wouldn't be a bother having you share a room with me." said Tohru

"Are you sure? I wouldn't want to be a bother." asked Ayumi

"Really, it'll be no trouble at all."

'BZZZZZZ!'

"Oh! Your clothes are ready. I'll be back. Excuse me." said Tohru, as she turned to get Ayumi's clothes.

"You know how Akito will feel about this." said Shigure

"That bitch could go jump off a building. I'm tired of her."

"After all this time you're tired of her?" Shigure said with a smirk on his face.

"No, I've been tired of her from the begining. The reason decided to escape now of all times is because I was waiting for the right time. Also because I had a vision."

"Here we go again. Ayumi, The Famous Psyhcic."

"Shut up Shigure. You know that my visions come true."

"What did you see this time?"

"I saw something like all of the zodiac animals, including the cat and the wolf, were all surounding God. Then one by one, they started to disappear. And God said to them 'You all are being released from my grasp. The one I thought who wouldn't find love, found it. And now all of you are free. May we never met.' Those were His exact words, it sounded like the curse broke."

"You know that is highly unlikely."

"I know that. But I believe that deep down, it will happen."said Ayumi.

Then there was a light knock at the door.

"Yes?" said Shigure

"Here are your clothes Ayumi." Tohru said, as she handed Ayumi her clothes.

"Thank you Tohru." said Ayumi

"It's nothing." said Tohru.

Ayumi noticed that Tohru's face looked a rather bit pale.

"Well then, you should go and change 're starting to look more like b-"

'Swoosh!'

Ayumi cut off Shigure with a punch to the head.

"Let's go Tohru." said Ayumi, leaving Shigure writhering in pain.

"I'll take you to my room so you can change." said Tohru

"Okay." resonded Ayumi.

They went up the stairs, Shigure's 'writing' room was right next to it. And took a couple of steps to the left, until they reached Tohru's room.

"Here we are. I'll let you change now." Tohru said before turning around to leave.

"What did you hear Tohru?" questioned Ayumi, before Tohru even reached the top of the stairs.

"...Um...I-" Tohru was cut off by an interupting Yuki

"Miss Honda?" said Yuki, cutting off into their conversation.

Tohru was kind of glad that Yuki had interupted their conversation.

"Yes?"

"Water is coming out of the you want me to turn it off?"

"N-no,it's okay.I'll be right down.I hope we can talk later." Tohru excused herself right after that, half running-walking down the stairs.

'She got lucky this time.'thought Ayumi as she entered Tohru's room.
