A/N: XD Yes! I have actually achieved my goal and updated this in less than... A week! Yay! -flails her arms and spins around in her happiness-

Brianna: Don't hurt yourself this ti-- -crashes occur- Eh!? Steff!?

Steffie: -lifts up a bandaged finger- I'm okay!

Kyo: Where's Dakota? -looks to Yuki-

Yuki: Ya know, she mentioned something about going off to find Haru. But, then she also murmured something about an alcohol cabinet...

Steffie: -is back to spinning around with Brianna on her tail, making sure she wont damage nothing.-

Kyo: Oh, god. Yuki, make sure the alcohol cabinet's locked!

Yuki: ... -grins evilly and slowly sneaks away-

Kyo: Wait... Wait! Your worst than they are when drunk!! -chases after him-

Disclaimer: Nada. I wish though...

I looked up and glanced around the kitchen. Everything just blurred in my mind. Nothing looks familiar... I frowned and looked at a worried brunette. She's pretty... I smiled but she just stood there, frowning; I frowned.

"S-Sohma-kun?" She whimpered out. I blinked. Huh? "S-Sohm-" The man from before cut her short. Shigure! That's his name!

"Ah, Yuki. Your last name is Sohma. Must remember that." He placed a hand on my shoulder and gave me a small smile, his eyes half lidded. I go to open my mouth but before I do, the girl lunged toward me, causing me to open my eyes in worriment as a strange shudder runs through my body.

"I'm so sorry!! I didn't mean to Shigure!!" The girl sobbed. What!? What is she talking about!? My eyes widened even more if possible at the size of her. It made me feel like I've shrunken in size, that was, until I looked down and noticed my now small and furry body.

"W-what...?" I squeaked and took my little paws to clutch this long tail-like thing that came from behind my rear.

"Yuki?" I shakingly looked up at Shigure who knelt before me. He lifted out a giant hand and scooped me up. "You see... Your in a family that is--"

"Stop." I made a startled squeak and nudged myself deeper into the warm hand of Shigure, trying to free myself from the terrifying voice that echoed into the room. "Don't tell him..."

It was the orange headed boy from across my room.

He walked into the room and sat down, ignoring the many tears that flowed down the girls porcelain face and etched his piercing, crimson eyes into the table.

Shigure sighed and shook his head. "Kyo, as much as I dislike it, we're gonna have to tell Yuki about the curse..." Curse? What curse? "...Its the only way to get him to regain his memo-"

"Shut up! Have you ever thought that for once that he doesn't have to---" He stopped. I took a shot at glancing over at him. But then I dodged and covered my eyes with my little paws. He looked scary. Frightening even.

The girl sniffled and lifted a pale hand to a tan one. "K-Kyo-kun..." She sounded weak, but, that must've been from her tear shedding from a few moments ago.

"Never mind!" The hot-headed teen jumped up, pushing his chair to where it met with the hard ground; bolting out of the room.

Everyone flinched.

"Well..." Shigure broke the cold silence. "...That could have gone better." He gave a slight chuckle and made a noise in his throat before setting me on the ground. "Now, Yuki, your soon gonna poof back an---"

That's when I felt the same shudder as before and I was automatically back to my normal body... Or is it Yuki's? Funny.. I feel a draft. I happily looked at my hands, finding no gray fur attached.

I jumped when I heard a high-pitched scream and looked towards the girl who was now turned away from me, red, and facing the wall. "E-eh... I'm sorry.. D-did I.." I was nudged by Shigure's hand who had a pair of clothing in them. Hey, those are mine... Aren't they?

I tilted my head and looked down, then looking back up with wide eyes and a soft patch of pink on my cheeks, I made a quick grab for the clothing in the elder's hand and quickly thrusted my clothing on.

"I'm sorry!" I sat in what would seem as the living room, sitting around a coffee table with a built in heater underneath. It was shortly after I had changed back into my clothing did we all followed after the tan boy into the next room.

We basically just sat there, in silence, -unless you counted my apologies- surrounding the wonderful heated table and the lovely snacks the nice girl had made.

"I didn't mean to do such a thing! I-I didn't know!" I closed my eyes tight and hung my head, while clutching to my knees causing my knuckles to go white. "I'm sorry..." I whispered underneath my breath.

Shigure smiles softly at me, patting me gently on the shoulder. "Yuki, it's quite fine. Don't let this little thing get to you." I looked up at him through my hair, blinking blankly.

So... I don't have to be sorry? But then it registered. What should I be really sorry for? I shook my head and returned him a small smile of my own.

But, that's when I noticed the look that everyone in the room, except for that girl, had given me.

I gasped. Was I not been able to smile before!?

I took a glance at the boy in the corner, obviously staring at me with what looked like hatred. But... His eyes looked soft compared to what his body action screamed. I looked over at Shigure who sighed and stood up, running skilled fingers through his raven-black hair.

"I must attend to a little meeting..." He looked around at all of us, landing his sight on the orange-headed teen. Kyo... "Kyo, I want you to leave Yuki alone, you hear me?" He then moved his vision onto the girl. "Tohru, my little flower," She eep'ed. "..do me the honors of coming along with m-- OW! Kyo! Honestly! I'm only going to a book convention! I was just curious to see if she would like to get some fresh air and enjoy some good manga!" He instantly cried at the boy who held up a balled fist, who he himself, rubbed a spot where he had a large bump on his head.

"U-um.." I squeaked out, resulting everyone's eyes on me. I widened my eyes at the feeling of being put on the spotlight and stuttered, thinking of my words carefully. "W-what should I do, Sh-Shigure-sama?" I nervously lifted a hand and poked a finger to my bottom lip.

He raised an eyebrow before lifting an index finger and thumb to his chin. "Hm... No sense in taking you out. Ah!" He lifted up a finger and smiled brightly. "Why don't Kyo show you around, ne? I know I mentioned before that you two really shouldn't be close to one another! But, whynot?" He glanced at the one called Kyo.

"No." Hurt... That's what I felt when I heard the venom in that little word. He glanced away and closed his eyes. No!? Does he really not like me!? I looked down with unease.

"It's okay, Shigure. I don't have to g-go!" The girl waved her hands in a defensive manor.

"Nonsense!" He jumped over to her and grabbed her hands with his own, looking into her eyes. "Come! Come and cherish the many books of literature and explore away in the dreams of fantasy!" He raced towards the door, dragging her along with him.

"Dumb Mutt! Get back here!" Kyo jumped up and raced after them.

"Take care of Yuuuuukiiiiiiiiii!" He sing-song out of the house and down the path while along dragging the poor girl with him.

I just sat there, staring at the table with startlment, afraid to move to upset though's around me. I flinched a little when hearing a slamming of a sliding door and Kyo storming back into the room and with one look my way, he suddenly looked away, nose in the air and snorts.

"Stop sitting there like every damn thing is your fault." He closed his eyes in frustration and sat down onto the couch and clicked on the TV with the remote. I just stared at him. "What!?"

I flinch at his tone. I better obey him, I don't want to get hurt.

I crawled slowly and hesitantly to his legs, him raising an questioning eyebrow at me all at once. "I-I... I'm sorry..." I stopped just to eye level with one of his knees and looked down, boring holes into the carpeted floor and fidgeting with the hem of my night shirt.

"Hey..." I shot my head up at him with a look of astonishment. Did he? He spoke nice... to me... "...Y-you don't have to worry..." He gave a slight smile and leaned forward. I gasped and hunched while also leaning back wards at the same time. He gave a slight laugh. "What? Afraid I'm going to yell or hit you?"

I was afraid of what would happen if I were to nod. I nod.

He just laughs. "E-eh... U-um..." I blink and tilt my head to the left as he just continued on laughing.

"Kami, even when you have no memory, your still cu-- Eh..." He fumbles with words, glancing anywhere but at me. "... To be safe, don't mention to anyone I'm being nice to you, got it?" He used a serious tone and eyed me.

I nervously fidgeted in his watchful look and mumbled an approving answer.

I don't get it. He was upset this morning... Wasn't he?

I opened my mouth to question him, but he beaten me to the punch."Do you really not remember?"

"Huh?" I intelligently responded.

"Never mind." He shook his head and stood up. "Forget I asked..." He sighed and brushed past me.

"...Pretty Orange..."

My eyes closed tightly at the small voice in the back of my head as I lunged forward, clinging to a leg of his.

"What the-" He glanced back at me. I didn't know it till he knelt down and placed a hand on my burning cheek, that I was crying. "Hey, w-whats wrong!?" He worriedly asked.

"Don't leave! I didn't mean to make you mad! I don't want you to go!" I couldn't help the tears from falling down my face. But, I didn't like how freely I shouted out my long from answered questions. "Who am I!? Where am I!? What do I do!? I don't know how I got here and I don't know where the hell I am!" I sobbed into his pant leg like earlier. "Who is everyone!? Shigure told me so little! I want to know more! Please! I can't help being confused! Why do I turn into a furry creature!?" I continued to sob, not realizing I was tugging and gripping his pant leg tightly, probably scratching the skin underneath. "Why!? Why!? Why!?"

Kyo's POV

I was so stunned. I didn't know what to do... What should I do!? He's asking so many questions, I'm afraid to answer! Damnit! Why couldn't I just ignored him and go back to bed!?

..Because I love him...

I just knelt there, flinching every so often and letting him go through the phase of scratching up my leg.

"Yuki..." I breathed out, obviously not gaining his attention as he quieted down and just silently weeped into the soft fabric of my cargo pants. "...Hey... Your going to get yourself sick." I placed a hand on top of his silvery hair, feeling it rise up and down from his short intake of air. "Hey!? Didn't you hear me!?"

My eyes grew with worriment as he suddenly went silent. I gasped and pushed him off me and lifted his head up so I could see his... stain, teared cheeks... He's so beautiful...

My eyes went heavy as I realized he was now asleep. I snorted. "Must've been from all the crying..." I sneered, but with a hint of softness added to the tone. "Come on..." I whispered into his ear, just before catching a good whiff of his scent.

Gawd, I feel like a pervert... I smirked at the idea and shook my head at the silent humor I gave to myself. I then stood up with his upper body on top of one arm and the back of his knees on top the other. Why is he so light?

I luckily made it to his room without any harm done to him nor my sanity due to his closeness. Although I was quite stunned at first when I went to place him in his bed, did he must've instinctively wrap his arms around my neck and pulled me down even closer to him. This is awkward. I softened my tensed body from his touch, but I eased myself from out of his hold and grabbed his blankets, hoisting them up to under his chin.

...Yuki... I sadly glanced down at him. "Did you really have to go?" I whispered to him, laughing quite softly as he made a mumbling sniffle and turned to his side, away from me. "Must be a 'yes.'" I gloomily answered myself.

I turned to leave, but decided not to. It was still early, actually, it was probably late afternoon by now. I couldn't afford to lose the rat out of my sight from all that I've processed today, so I ended up just sitting on the floor, my back to the closed door and silently listened to his ghostly breathing that echoed through my ears, my game-boy turned on at my side.

So what do I do now? I can't let down my guard just yet. Not to Shigure and Tohru... I bit my bottom lip, glancing up at Yuki every so often and then back down to my crossed legs; black DS in my left hand, it's bright and colorful lights being ignored as it mis-matched and blurred into the side of my leg.

Why do I feel so numb? I sighed and closed my eyes, leaning back until my head met with the cool wood. I... I really want him back. But, what good would that do? He'd only hate me...

I smiled sadly and stared off at the back of the rat's head. Yea... But... Even if he did hate me... At least once in a while, he'll at least give a damn to pick a fight with me, leaving me within his thoughts somehow. But, with a mindless Yuki... No... He wouldn't even know who I am. Wouldn't know the pain we had to grow up with. The Yuki I know wouldn't also know the real me. The me that was nice to him.

Because... If he knew the real me... He would be unhappy with the future... The cage... The monster...

I mindlessly drifted to my side, during my thinking. The DS, already off and closed in front of my face on the floor, causing an irritating glimmer from the sun ray from the window. I closed my eyes.

Yuki... Even if it means you not knowing who the real me is... I swear on Kami's grave. I. Will. Get. Your. Memory back.
