Kyoshiro things are packed and ready to go to the summer house with Akito. Akito is taken him, Hatori, and Kureno. When Shigure came ver earlier, he told Akito to come to the summer house to relax but to really cause trouble and feel included. Akito knows Tohru Honda will be there so Akito can isolate her from away from the family.

Kyoshiro stands near Hatori's car with his suitcase in his hand. Akito told him to stay near the car and wait for them to get ready. Being outside is a rare order he ever took from Akito because Akito doesn't like him going out a lot.

'Kyo,' he looks at the bird in a near by tree and let out one finger so it can come and it did. The bird was a baby Robin and looking at him with interest. "Did you find him?", referring to his older brother.

"Talking to animals again, Kyoshiro?"

He looks to his side and sees Hatori walking to the car with Akito and Kureno. He turns back at the bird again and takes in a message. "Hello Hatori, Kureno. Long time no see . . . or talk."

"Your not going to eat that thing, are you?" Akito smiles then walks over to Kyoshiro. "You are a cat after all."

"I don't eat animals. I'm half human you know." He keeps his eyes on the bird before turning to Akito. Akito is wearing the usual black cloths which explain her personality. "How far is the summer house?"

"A half an hour away." Hatori answers then open the front door.

"Go," He let the bird fly away then open the door to the back seat.

"Kureno, sit in the front while Kyoshiro gets in the back with me." Akito orders while getting in the back seat.

Kyoshiro follows behind him and closes the door.

"Kyoshiro, did you see your father?" Hatori asks him while pulling out of the estate.

"No, he was out, as usual." Kyoshiro looks at Hatori with a hint of sadness in his voice which all of the picked ups.

"You sound lonely when he says it like that." Akito holds Kyoshiro and leans her head on his shoulder. "You don't need your father for everything. He still hasn't handled the death of young mother, eve though it happened so long ago . . . He's just angry at that monster that killed her."

"Monster, Akito- Sama?"

"You know, that thing."

"You mean my brother? Kyo?"

"Don't say that! That monster is not your brother!" Akito tightens her grip on Kyoshiro and starts growling. "While we are there, you are spending all your time with me. Understand?"

"Yes, Akito- Sama." he looks at Akito and feels her hard grip lose.

Akito places her hand on his cheek softly, looks into his eyes, and places her hand gently on his skin. "You're so polite, unlike your brother.

When they arrived to the summer house, Kyoshiro went to sleep in the living room. He didn't get much sleep on the plane, with Akito, and the drive to the house. He sleeps on the large sofa with a warm blanket for the air condition. He was dreaming about his brother and when they were first separated.

At age five years old . . .

Kyo and Kyoshiro were playing the back yard of their parent's house. Inside, their parents were having an argument about separating the boys. Both of the twins had no idea what was going but were worried.

As they sit behind the house, in the grass, and surrounded by toys.

"Big brother, why do mommy and daddy fight?" Kyoshiro asked Kyo while holding a ball.

"Kyoshiro, they are trying to separate us."

"Why, big brother?"

"Because I'm a monster and you aren't."

"Your not a monster." Kyoshiro smiles at his brother , drops the ball, and takes Kyo's hand where he keeps his bracelet. "You mean what you transform into?"

"Don't touch it!" Kyo snatches his hand away and hold his arm. "Can't you see, we are different, and we can't be together! They are trying to split us up so we are so different!"

"I still don't get it." Kyoshiro looks at his brother. "You are nice to me, we share, we clean, we learn, we have orange hair, and we have different forms. How are we different? You are my twin and my brother. The only difference between you and me is my tips are white. We do everything together and love the same things..."

"Not everything."

"Still, I love..."

"I'm taking Kyoshiro with me!" their father yells at their mother and takes Kyoshiro by the arm.

"No, don't leave me with that . . . " Their mother stops herself from speaking when her eyes were set on her boys.

"Daddy, I don't want to leave! I want to say with Kyo!" Kyoshiro starts yelling and crying while looking at his brother.

"You and Kyo will never see each other. You don't belong together, Kyoshiro. Not with that monster!"

"Kyo! Kyo! KYO!"

Kyoshiro sits up quickly yelling, "Don't go! Don't leave me!" He starts crying hard and shaking. 'That dream again. Oh, Kyo, I miss you.'

"Kyoshiro, still having those nightmares?" Hatori asks Kyoshiro while leaning forward in his chair.

Kyoshiro stops crying and starts to sniff while cleaning his face with his long sleeve. "Just the normal nightmare, nothing big." He sits on the side of the chair and leans back in the chair.

"You want to talk about it?"

"It's the normal thing with the same talk." he gets up from the coach and pulls his hair out of his face. "It's hot in here. You turned down the air condition, Hatori- Sama?"

"It's on a temporary mode."

"Oh," he gets up then heads to the bathroom. "I need to wash up."

Kyoshiro goes into the bathroom, quickly turns on the shower, and search the bathroom for something. He digs inside the cabinet, knocing things over, and searching for something sharp. 'It's in my blood. That's why we can't be together.' he looks at Hatori's travel back and dig for a razor. Once he found one he sat on the toilet and break the razor to get the sharp blade out.

'My blood.' he holds the blade to his skin, tightens his fist, and cuts into his skin carefully but closely to his veins. 'It hurts.' tears stroll down his eyes as he cut his flesh and spreading blood all over his arm and floor.

"Kyoshiro, time for dinner." Kureno knocks at the door.

Kyoshiro bits down on his lower lip while still cutting his arm and crying. "I'll be there in five minutes. Thanks Kureno- Sama."
