Chapter 5: An interesting afternoon
Sohma house
It was a quiet afternoon in the house of Shuigure Sohma. Yuki was at his secret base, which was not so secret anymore. The day Torhu got sick, Kyo found it, tore it all apart, gathering up the leeks to feed to Torhu. Let's just say that Yuki was not very happy about it, even though it did help her get better. Kyo faced an angry fist of a Yuki Sohma. Kyo was lying on the roof, staring up at the sky as what he usually did on a clear afternoon and Torhu was on the deck hanging up clothes to dry. Torhu was humming happily, the breeze was light and airy, and spring was in the air. She smiled cheerfully when she saw Momiji walk up the path with Haru.
She cheerfully waved at them, a smile shining bright on her face. "Momiji! Haru! Welcome."
Momiji looked up at Torhu from the path and copied her expression while waving. Haru just gave a simple wave with the flick of his wrist. "Torhu! We came to play today! Hope that was ok?"
She was now looking over the edge of the railing at the two. Excitement filled her voice "Of course! I always love when you come to visit. I'll be down in a second. I'm just finishing up here."
"Momiji will do as ordered." Momiji stood straight up and put his hand up to his forehead for a salute. Torhu just giggled at his childish site. "Oh, Momiji!"
"Hey Torhu, where's Yuki?" Haru stood there with his hands in his pockets scanning for any sign of him.
"Oh, he just went out for a bit. He should be back soon."
"The secret base? How cute of my little Yuki."
"Oh Haru." Torhu shook her head slightly at the amusement of Haru always teasing Yuki. "So how did you know about it?"
Haru gave a sly smirk. He knew Kyo was on top of the roof, so he made sure that he could hear him. "Let's just say that when a certain person was sick, a feline went on a rampage and destroyed his garden. I got an earful about it after I asked what he did this time."
"HEY! IT'S NOT LIKE I DID IT ON PORPOSE. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS HIS!"
"Hey, I'm not the one who destroyed his garden." Haru shrugged at his last stamen trying to get a rile out of Kyo which worked. Kyo seemed to huff at the last comment. Jumping up to his feet, he ran to the edge of the roof and jumped down landing right in front of Haru. Momiji just rolled his eyes. He knew exactly what was going to happen when Haru mentioned the leeks. Another silly fight was going to break out.
"You wanna say that again?"
By this time Haru's eyes lite on fire. He let a small smirk fall across his face. He then closed his eyes and shrugged his shoulders, wanting to rile Kyo up all the more. "Heh, you…destroyed…his precious…garden." With that last word you could hear that black Haru was being unleashed. Kyo, angrier than ever, gave a small smirk as well. Gladly taking on the challenge of a fight. "Alright then, bring it on." Kyo instantly let go of Haru and stepped back. He stood in a stance ready to fight. He motioned Haru to do the same, waving his hand for him to come. Haru just stood there and laughed, he knew Kyo wanted to fight, but decided against it knowing full well that this would tick him off all the more. "Nah, maybe some other time."
With that Kyo leaped at him, with his fist weld high for a deafen punch. He threw his punch but just missing Haru as he was standing still, not moving a muscle, giving off a sly grin. Kyo thought he saw something from the corner of his eye, something inhuman, which threw off his punch. As he landed behind him, he quickly looked in that direction, but saw nothing. I could have sworn I saw something over there.
"Is that all you got? If so I'm going to look for Yuki." Haru gave a small glance to where Kyo was looking and gave a small chuckled. "Catch ya later…cat."
Kyo just stood there dumb struck about the whole scene. When did Haru not fight back? Whenever he goes black everything is a fight to him and what was that remark? After Kyo watched Haru leave, he looked over to where he thought for sure something was watching him. What was that thing?
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Over in the darkness of the shadows, a mysterious man watched the fight in amusement. He was about to go when he saw Kyo lunge for Haru, just barely missing him. He chuckled slightly when he noticed Kyo looked his way. He quickly turned to leave and vanished in a mist of darkness.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Momiji finally made it to Torhu when she saw the boys starting to fight. Momiji saw the worry on her face, so he tried to distract her from them. She was so caught up in the scene, that she didn't even notice Momiji standing behind her.
"TOHRU!"
Torhu gave a little shriek and turned around. She let out a breath when she saw the little blonde hair boy, smiling up at her in excitement. Her face once full of worry now was shining in brightness. Momiji looked at her and ran to give her a hug. She wrapped her arms around him when POOF! He turned into his cute cuddly rabbit self. Torhu giggled holding him in her arms. "Oh Momiji! How many times are you going to keep doing this?"
Momiji just looked up at her and chuckled. "As many times Torhu gives Momiji a hug!" She just laughed and gave him a small squeeze. Momiji looked back over at the boys on the ground and noticed nothing had gone further than just talk. He let out a sigh of relief. Good, now Torhu does not have to worry about bandaging anyone up. Looking back up at Torhu he smiled, this is how she is supposed to be. Then a loud POOF came again and Momiji was back to himself…naked. Torhu quickly turned around and started to apologize. "I…I'm s-sorry. I d-didn't see anything."
Kyo was still standing in the yard when he heard the poof and looked to the deck on the second floor. What he saw both amused him and angered him. Poor Torhu, she was jumbling up her words from embarrassment and Kyo knew exactly why. He clenched up his fists and yelled at the top of his lungs, "MOMIJI I'LL GET YOU FOR THAT!"
Momiji already had put his clothes on and started to cry. "Waaa, Kyo is going to be mean to me again." Just then, he grabbed for her again and then POOF! He was back as a rabbit, laughing playfully like a little kid. This really made Kyo mad to where he actually leaped to the second floor and started to chase him. "YOU ARE SO GOING TO GET IT, YOU LITTLE PUNK."
Torhu laughed holding the little yellow rabbit and running away from Kyo to protect him. Kyo just rolled his eyes and picked up Momiji's clothes. He let out a sigh and started after them calling out to Torhu.
"Hey Torhu! Bring that little punk back! Don't take him without his clothes!" Kyo threw his head back and chased after them mumbled to himself. "So what are you going to do when he turns back without his clothes?" Just then Kyo heard a familiar shriek.
"I'm s-so sorry Momiji!"
Kyo sighed once more before he took off toward them calling out to Torhu. "See what I told you. Hang on...I'm coming!"

At the main Sohma house, far back on the property, a room was dark and silent. The head of the household, Akito, was walking down a long hallway, leading to a back room. They mainly used it for storage, or other random things. It was night and all was quiet, everyone was asleep in bed. Akito slowly walked into the room and shone his lantern around the room, as if looking for someone.
"Turn that off."
Akito put out the flame and walked inside. Carefully finding each step before his eyes finally adjusted to the darkness. There were small dark figures moving about the floor, he looked up and saw strange bat like creatures that seemed to ooze with dark goop that made a pool on dark liquid below them. He slowly moved around the puddles. Akito looked up to a man who was leaning against one of the walls. "So, is everything working out? I do hope there is good news to tell."
The man pushed himself off the wall and took a few steps toward Akito, before bowing in front of him. "Everything is working out as planned. Soon everyone will be shrouded in their own darkness within them, and they will be yours to control."
Akito let a grin show on his face. "Good, I shall finally have them back under my control. They will learn never to cross me again. Then soon little miss goody two shoes will know what it truly means to suffer."
The man stood up, also a grin on his face mimicking Akito's. He turned around to leave the room laughing on the inside, he also had his own plan in mind for the Sohma family. He knew everything was going according to plan, just the way he likes it.
