Hey last chapter I forgot to add some translations for some of the Japanese words that are important or maybe just shocking. I'm teaching myself Japanese and I wanted to use some in my story. I think it's a puriti interesting language. So anyways one was Tsuyayaka is translated to mean beautiful. Hana is beautiful and where Yuki says Suki-wan just ignore that I didn't mean to put it in and koi means love. As I said it was just a kawaii filler till my artistic fields were no longer barren. I can't help myself I did put a little Yuki/Hatsuharu fluff in a later chapter and it's a little stronger then other times but I don't think its going anywhere but I'm still thinking some Hana/Yuki there is defiantly gonna be a scene for those to sometime later on. I lied about this being all Kyo/Tohru and Akito comes in here but not physically but in a very interesting and cruel way. Gomen but this chapter is angsty but as a certain reviewer suggested the fluff will come later near the end of this chapter. Okay Haru is getting some Tohru fluff in this chapter but its just that they both feel the same about what happens to Kyo it isn't going anywhere. Okay here's chapter six.
I can think of all it isn't. Can you tell me what love is?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Tomorrow is that huge literature test and I haven't studied for it at all. I can't fail this. I've already let mom down by missing a three school days. I was so behind thankfully Yuki-kun was so kind to help me. Maybe he'll make me a study packet again that I can study while watching Kyo…Kyo. He seems to be getting better even though he's still in his cat form. His breathing is regular and he's stopped that horrid coughing. He's not shivering anymore and his face is no longer pale. Then I start to doubt when he just stops…everything just stop. His chest stops its rhythmic rising and falling and his face grows instantly cold and colorless. His body tenses and his face eerily still and showing nothing…no pain…no fear…no life. At these times I fear he's gone that I couldn't save him. Like he was afraid he wouldn't be able to save me.
Flashback
Sometimes...sometimes I get scared thinking about you walking home by yourself. I'm afraid one night you might not come home. Scared you'll be lieing somewhere hurt and I can't save you...can't get to you fast enough.
Flashback
Tohru stared blankly into space as she reached the Sohma house. It was late she had put in some extra hours at her job to make a few more dollars. Once Kyo was awake she was going to make every kind of food that he enjoyed. She was going to get him a gift too…or maybe she should make him on herself. Hmm what would Kyo like? Well its close to winter and this fall air is chilled and brisk maybe I should knit him a scarf. Yes that's it a bright orange scarf to match his hair. Ohh maybe I should make him some mittens too and a hat! Yes! Tohru giggled and smiled to herself. Kyo would probably hate her for doing it and yell and pretend to be mad but Tohru knew. Kyo had a weak spot for when she gave him gifts. He always accepted even if he wanted to seem like he didn't care. She walked in the door and placed her shoes to the side. " Shigure-san! Yuki-kun! I'm home!"
Shigure and Yuki watched Tohru from their seats on the floor.
" Miss Honda I know it may be a bit much to ask." Yuki said. " But would you please do our onigiri stand for the harvest fair. Everyone in the school knows you make the best."
Shigure smiled slyly. " Trying to win our fair Tohru's heart again Yuki." He teased at Yuki's awkwardness.
Yuki threw his book at Shigure. " It was just a compliment."
Tohru smiled. " Sure as long as you can make me a study guide for the literature test." She said
" Actually I already made one up. I.um…noticed you hadn't paid much attention to your school work lately."
Tohru hung her head. " I know I'm so ashamed. I couldn't leave Kyo though. It's my fault he had turned up half-dead."
Shigure traded a solemn look with Yuki. Kazuma's test was pushing her limits. She had already become sick once over all the stress. They had been talking about asking Kazuma to lay off and let Kyo and Tohru get better. He had said the more vulnerable they were the better it was. They thought it would only end up killing them both in love or not.
Poor Kyo I wonder if he's ever going to change back into his human form? Or if he's ever going to wake out of this coma. Hatori said that there was nothing we could do. How can that be though? I have to make him get better. I could never forgive myself if he didn't get better. If he dies it'll be all my fault for being so weak and not making my own decisions. Kyo how could I do this to you?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
" You monster!" The figure lurking in the shadows said evilly. " Did you actually think someone would try to save you?" The figure cackled.
The boy with the crimson eyes and fiery hair clutched his hands to his ears trying to drown out the horrid sound. " NO! They will! Someone will!" He screamed.
" Why should they? You don't think that girl is going to do anything. She has my precious Yuki. She doesn't need you filth. She's happy with him and you know Shigure only took you in because I ordered him to. Not a soul cares about you Koneko. No one wants to see your face. Your hideous excuse for a human being. A filthy monster is all you are." The figure grabbed the boy who was still pressing his hand against his ears.
" No Tohru's not like that! Stop talking about her! Go away!" Kyo yelled.
The figure dug his hands into the boy's head. " What did you just say?" The shadowed asked through clenched teeth. He aimed a kick in the stomach sending the boy airborne into the wall. When the boy staggered up off the ground the figure threw a punch sending him back into the wall. " Don't you ever defy me!" The shadow shouted aiming another kick to the boys stomach.
The boy was on all fours gasping for breath. He tried pulling air into his burning lungs but couldn't. He fell writhing on the ground chocking for just one breath. Struggling to keep his eyes open. Not letting the darkness envelope him. His eyes were blurry though and his body oxygen deprived' Can't…gi…ve…in…to' He gasped again. The darkness growing from the corner of his eyes. Meanwhile the shadow figure just laughed. ' No'
He thought feebly before collapsing on the ground at the mans feet.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Tohru had finished dinner and Shigure and Yuki were eating politely once more complimenting her. A poof was heard from the room above them. Tohru's face brightened. Kyo had finally turned back into a human. After two weeks of being in a coma at least he was back to human.(A/N: It may be impossible and totally dumb with know point but for the sake of my next scene lets just say they thought he was getting a little better so the put the cat in Kyo's school uniform in case he transformed. Shirt unbuttoned of course. I know dumb but bear with my creative block and me right now. I was planning something different but I needed Akito and angst.)
" I'm going to take some up to Kyo." She said to the nezumi and the inu.
They nodded their heads in response to show that they heard her.
Tohru walked up the steps carefully balancing a bowl of leek soup. She knew that Kyo hated it but leeks was the only remedy she hadn't tried. He hadn't eaten for a few days but was just impossible to force he orange kitty's mouth to part. If it didn't make him better the taste would probably force him out of his coma. Tohru stood outside of the door when she heard a shout of pain come from Kyo's room. She hurriedly pushed the door open and found Kyo struggling in anguish against something. " Kyo!" She shouted drooping the hot soup on the floor in front of her. She ran to his side as he began to make choking noises and he was gasping for air like he couldn't breath. His fist clench and she saw blood trickle down the side of his mouth and saw his ears becoming red and bruised. Another trickle of blood slid down his face but this time from his hairline. " Kyo!" She cried pushing his shoulder. " Kyo! Wake up!" Tohru yelled again the tears spilling down the side of her face in rivers. His breath kept getting worse and he began writhing beneath her. Gasping and choking in anguish as more blood fell from his lips and head.
Yuki and Shigure heard Tohru yell and they heard her delirious cries. They had dropped their food not caring that they had broken any dishes. Rushing up the steps they heard Kyo's cries of pain and Tohru's of worry and terror. Yuki had been the first to run into Kyo's room and he froze with shock at the sight he saw. Kyo was beat up bleeding from the mouth and head, his ears red and his face bruised.
Shigure was right behind Yuki frozen with a different look on his face. " Oh no." He whispered. Akito couldn't have…
" Kyo." Tohru whispered her face pressed against his now still body.
Yuki and Shigure looked up as all the sudden Kyo's body stopped writhing and struggling and his raw and tormented cries faded. He stopped choking and gasping…just stopped everything. His face was blank and emotionless and without any color at all except for the blood staining his cheeks. He lay still unmoving not breathing almost like he was…
" No." Tohru whimpered. " He…he can't…" She whimpered again. " Kyo no you can't….please."
Yuki struggled to make his legs work again as he slowly stumbled over to Tohru's side. She was crying so hard her body shuddering with the sobs. Her tears soaking the shoulder of his uniform. He looked up at Shigure and sent him a questioning look. Is he Yuki mouthed?
Shigure let his head fall and his shoulders sag. I don't know Shigure mouthed back. He exited the room heading towards the phone in the hall. How could Akito do that? He thought angrily. Head of the family or not he has no right!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Where the hell am I? The orange haired boy thought. Bare white walls surrounded him. I'm not dead am I? Ah hell this is just perfect. He felt something warm slid down his chin. He pressed a finger to his lips as the metallic taste of blood assaulted his mouth. Damn Akito what he do kill me in my sleep. How the hell did he do that?
Kyo! Kyo! Wake up! Kyo!
Huh who the hell is that? It sounds like Tohru's calling me. Damn is she dead too? How did he get to her? Great not only did I get myself killed I got her too. Dammit why do I always go and screw up her life. I killed another person who I loved. First my mom now Tohru. I am a monster.
Kyo! No please…you can't….no….please. Kyo!
He looked around the barren room sparse of any sign of a living soul in it. He felt dizzy and his lungs were burning. It hurt to move his body felt like lead. He stumbled and fell gasping again wheezing. Trying to drag another pained breath into his starving lungs. He felt a prick in his arm a cold sensation washed over him as he blacked out again.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Hatori had rushed away over to Shigure's house after hearing a detailed description of what happened. I knew Akito had powers but this just isn't right. Why now does he decided to torment Kyo. He slid into the car and drove not bother to look back and see Momiji, Haru and Kisa napping in the back.
Hatsuharu woke up to the sound of screeching tires. He yawned and rubbed his eyes placidly and asked. " Gee Hatori what's the rush?"
Hatori jumped looking back and seeing Hatsuharu awake and a sleeping Momiji and Kisa. " What the hell are you kids doing in my car?" Hatori asked harshly.
" Dammit Hari-san we got bored in the house it was too hot out side so we thought we'd sit in here and we just kinda fell asleep. What's your damn problem?"
" It's Kyo." Hatori ground out after being told off by Haru.
Hatsuharu looked up concerned. He still liked Yuki but Kyo was cute. Hatsuharu mentally smacked himself for thinking like that. There was something wrong with Kyo and it was partially his fault for pushing him over the edge and keeping anyone from going out and finding him. Telling them all to listen to what Kazuma said. " What's wrong with Kyo?" Hatsuharu asked his voice strained with guilt and other emotions."
Hatori mouth was set in a grim line he answered Hatsuharu as honestly as he could. " I don't know."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Tohru held Kyo's bleeding head in her arms giving no notice to the shirt she had now ruined. She didn't care she just wanted Kyo to start breathing again but his chest had been still for almost twenty minutes now. Hoe could she have let this happen to him? Kyo was dying all because of her…or worse maybe he was already. No I can't think that way.
Yuki sat beside Tohru who hadn't shown any real signs of life since Kyo had… She was in such agony and he didn't know how to help her. That stupid cat can't die! What the hell happened? How the hell did he get this way? Dammit the door was locked and the windows were closed. Everything is untouched except for Kyo who was barely alive. He's hanging on such a thin thread can Hatori even save him. That damn dragon better! Tohru need that baka neko no matter how much I despise him. Her life and happiness means more to me then this rivalry. The soft knocking of the door brought Yuki out of his thoughts.
" Hatori and Hatsuharu are here." Shigure said gently opening the door.
Hatori and Hatsuharu reacted the same as Yuki and Shigure had. They were stunned and they froze in shock and disbelief at the sight that lay before them.
Hatori rushed over to Kyo he pulled out a needle and filled it with a clear liquid. What Shigure had said over the phone hadn't prepared him for this.
" What is that?" Tohru asked feebly.
" Something to start his heart up again. Like an adrenaline rush to his system. It should restart his breathing if his lungs aren't punctured."
Yuki stood up. " How the hell could that have happened?"
Hatori just looked away as he slid the needle into Kyo's arm.
Hatsuharu placed a hand on Tohru's shoulder as she stood up to let Hatori care for Kyo. He led her put of the room and down to the living room. " I'm sorry Tohru. For doing this to you Kyo. I was just following the orders Kazuma had given me. I never thought that it would turn out this bad. If I had let you go look for him when he disappeared maybe he'd be okay right now instead of…." Hatsuharu trailed off.
" It's my fault too Hatsuharu. If I would've not been so obedient. If I would've just listened to myself an gone looking for him instead of standing like an idiot and watching him run." Tohru cried turning her head away.
Hatsuharu placed his hands on Tohru's shoulders and made her look up at him. " Your not an idiot you were just confused. You weren't prepared and Kyo's reaction was a big shock to you. What I did was a shock. You just didn't know what to do….who to help. So you just stayed out of the way. You had no idea about Kazuma and so you couldn't have done anything. I shouldn't have stopped you from looking for him. If something happens I'm the one to blame not you Tohru-Chan. If anything you're the one who's keeping him alive."
Tohru looked up into the eyes of the younger teen. " Haru…"
He placed a finger on her lips. " Come on let's go see if Kyo's alive yet." He took her a hand and led her back up the steps. They were greeted with painful, shuddering breaths being drawn in by Kyo. His face had regained some color and he was alive. Hatsuaharulet go of Tohru who promptly ran and threw herself onto Kyo.
Tohru cried into Kyo's chest as the familiar orange smoke surrounded them and Kyo reverted back to his weakened cat form. " Kyo." She sobbed into the bloody ginger fur of the cat.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The crimson eyed boy awoke again. His lungs didn't burn but his breath still came in struggled gasps. His head spun but he could think clearly. He was still surrounded by the stark white walls. 'So am I dead or not?'
Kyo.
Tohru?
He's still alive. Kyo I thought you were…..she sobbed.
I guess that answers my question he thought. He jumped as his shoulder was instantly soaked and so was his chest. What the hell! He could smell a mixture of salt and water. She's….she's crying for me. The boy held his chest as he felt her tears slid across the blood staining his face. No not tears…she was cleaning him.
She laughed shakily. " Don't do that to me Kyo. You…her sentence was broken by a teary laugh. " I thought I lost you this time."
Tohru.
He sat leaning on one of the barren walls. This time he slid contently into the oblivion he let the darkness take him. He let the shadow of sleep envelope his weary maimed body.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yuki and Hatsuharu watched from the corner as Tohru cleaned the blood that had dried on the Neko's furry face and body. They saw her try to pull of a smile and her laughs were broken by her worried sobs. She was trying hard to hold herself together but they both knew it would really help her if she just broke down.
" She really should just let herself cry some more." Hatsuharu whispered. " It would do her some good. If she keeps holding it in she'll stress herself into another fever."
Yuki looked over at the placid ox. He knew Haru had a facade up too. He knew that Haru blamed himself for what had happened to Kyo just like Tohru did. He had heard the conversation from his position at the door of her room. Stupid cat your lucky Hatori saved you or else I would have seriously kicked your ass in the next life.
Hatsuharu and Yuki returned their gazes to Tohru who had the limp cat held tightly in her arms.
" I don't think she realizes just how much in love she really is." Yuki whispered.
Hatsuharu smiled but he didn't turn to look at Yuki instead he kept his eyes on the scene before him. " You really are something else Yuki. Thank you for not being a rat about this."
Yuki smiled facing Hatsuharu. " I always wanted a little sister."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Shigure and Hatori stood on the back porch overlooking the small rock patch where this had all began.
" Do you think it was Akito Hari-san?" Shigure said.
" I do." Hatori answered solemnly. " This could be explained as a serious medical problem…symptoms of a dying person." Hatori shook his head, " It's Akito though. Somehow I just know that Akito infiltrated Kyo's head and almost killed him in his dreams."
Shigure looked over at his favorite cousin and long time friend. " Can he…"
Hatori just continued gazing at the stone patch and nodded his head grimly.
Shigure returned his gaze to the yard. " Well Kyo is alive…"
For Now………………
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Here it is chapter six. I know major angst but I needed to get some in and I think this was a cool way to introduce Akito into the story even if I did almost kill Kyo. Well chapter seven will be up when I get it written in the mean time suggestions are still welcom and I repeat I will give credit to all those who contribute ideas.
Thank You
Krissy119: Sorry for all the angst but I had to get it out. I do have a major fluffy scene coming up though. Thank you for the kind review and the enjoyment of the YukixHana. Sorry about all the Japanese but Im being taught the language so I thought I'd incorporate more in my stories. This chapter is bare of it but I will put more in and don't worry. I'll have the definitions maybe at the beginning of the chapter next time. So people are aware.
Thanks You To All The Reviwers On My Other Chapters
