Author's Intro:

I hate one thing right now: Looking up movies on the internet. That's all I'm gonna say. (has anger mark on head)

Anywayzzzz…..

On with it!

"It's my fault, Kyo-kun. Please. It's just….it's all my fault," Tohru continued whispering, squeezing her eyes shut and grasping onto Kyo's shirt.

He turned around so he could look at her. She seemed desperate.

Kyo wanted so badly to make the God's nose bloody, but…he just couldn't say no to Tohru.

The Sohma teenager reluctantly dropped his victim.

'But…what does she mean, it's her fault?'

As Kyo led Tohru out of that gloomy chamber, he gave one glance back at the "God".

Akito Sohma was smirking, acting like he was king of the world.

'That damn bastard. I'd wipe that smirk off his face...' Kyo glared, and then looked back at Tohru. He'd take her back home. No way she could stay here for any longer. She didn't need this hell.

But Akito wasn't about to let that happen. Kyo had been disrespectful, and he wasn't about to let that pass.

"Where are you going with her, Kyo Sohma?" the God spoke, suddenly following them. "Her wounds aren't healed yet."

"They will never heal with you around," Kyo answered angrily, still walking away.

Akito sped up to catch up the pair. He grabbed Kyo's sleeve, so that more of the boy's attention would come to him.

"But Hatori is here. She needs medical help, and all the little brats that come through that Dog's house won't help her. LEAVE….HER….HERE," Akito finished, almost two inches from Kyo's face.

"No. She'll see you later."

And with that, Kyo shrugged off the God, who was now enraged, picked up Tohru, and ran.

He wouldn't of normally run, but he did not know if anyone would try to come after him. Kyo looked back. Only a few of the maids were running after him, and he could see Akito screaming in the background.

Hatori was there, too, but Akito apparently didn't know. Kyo gave him a look that said "Get to Shigure's house now. We'll need a doctor", and Hatori gave him a subtle nod, right before disappearing again.

Kyo didn't know the Main House very well; he never liked to go there, and wasn't usually allowed inside, unless on a "special occasion", which probably meant a beating from Akito, but this time, he let his senses guide him.

And, for some reason, it worked. Kyo never knew how.

Maybe it was the gloominess of the house; it was like a light at the end of the tunnel in hell. Or maybe it was something more.

But he was outside, and that was all he cared about.

Kyo didn't stop running, but he didn't run nearly as fast as he had been.

Once he was out of sight, and near Shigure's house, he stopped to rest. He was breathless.

Tohru had closed her eyes, and appeared to be asleep.

'After all that?' Kyo wondered, wide-eyed, but also amused. He remembered the night after visiting her mum's grave, and how Tohru had fallen asleep on that porch.

He set her down very gently, and then slumped down himself, but only for a minute.

Kyo could nearly see the Dog's house from there, and that thought gave him a bit of strength.

So, picking up the girl once again, he set out for home.

"Shigure! Is Hatori here yet?" Kyo yelled, dashing into the house without even taking his shoes off.

The Dog came around the corner, and was surprised at the sight that greeted him.

"You…y-you brought Tohru-kun home?"

"Can't you tell by looking?" Kyo responded, sweating. "And I told Hatori to come. He should be here soon."

Yuki, interrupted from his thoughts by the sound of Kyo's arrival.

"Kyo, you managed to get her out of there?" the Rat asked, amazed. "I would of thought that Akito would of just kept her there." Yuki realized what he had said, and clapped his hand over his mouth and gasped.

'W-was I just FRIENDLY to Kyo? I-is that part of the change that has been happening?'

Kyo was obviously thinking of something remotely similar, because he was staring at the "Prince" like he had said that he loved Akito.

Shigure looked from one teenager to the other.

'Now this is interesting…' he thought, smirking in amusement.

But their ponderings were cut off by a moan from Tohru. Kyo had been holding her bridal style, and so everyone saw her open her eyes.

"Eh? W-what happened?" She immediately started talking and panicking. "Are you okay, Kyo-kun? Is Akito-sama okay? Did yo—" she was stopped, though, by realizing where she was and what position she was in.

Which made her face turn crimson.

"Ah! Ummm..u-uhh….W-what do I say?"

Kyo just chuckled and put her down, making sure that the Cat could stand.

"Hatori should be here soon to make sure that you're okay. And hey, I-I'm sorry about earlier.." Kyo looked down, shoving his hands in his pockets.

"T-that's okay, Kyo-kun."

"Oo! What happened? Was it something naughty?" Shigure teased, smiling suspiciously.

"No, you pervert Dog!" Kyo yelled at him. "Stupid."

Tohru smiled and blushed.

At least for now, she was home.

But Tohru kept Akito's words in her mind.

Author's Closing:

Hehe. Tohru falls asleep too easily. She'll get kidnapped like that.

Thanks to all my reviewers.

And keep reading! The next chapter will be out soon.

Not-so-sayonara!
