The two stood in the rain for moment before the door slid open. Yuki took a slight step backwards that didn't go unoticed by the girl in the doorway, "Ah, Yuki's come back, but he's still afraid of me. Come now Yuki, it's be so many years since you were in your room," The girl looked down at the terrified girl at Yuki's side, "And Akito, why don't you go see Kiada, I believe she in the gazebo in the rose garden." The older Akito smiled a bit, brushing her raven black hair to the side, "Go on now."
Little Akito shook a bit but followed the motion of the older Akito's hand. Running her fingers along the walls of the house she stopped at the deck looking out over the garden. The floor was wet where the door had been left open and the wind had blown in the rain, this was when Akito relized she hadn't taken her shoes off. Taking a deep shaky breath she stepped out into the rain, already soaking wet. She walked as slowly as possible to the small structure in the center of the garden.
Turning she took her time walking up the stairs to the wooden door, "Ki-Kiada..." She knocked softly on the door.
It took a moment before she heard the thin and weak voice call out softly "Enter." The door creaked open heavily into the cold wooden room. It wasn't a place Akito was very fond of, one of the places where Kiada had hurt her, her head spun and she felt sick as though she might pass out at any moment. She watched the floor rather than the dark haired girl. "Not going to kneel Akito? Forgotten your lessons already?" Even though Akito couldn't see her, she could feel her smiling.
"Eh," Akito mumbled keeping her eyes off the girl. Sitting on her knees she shivered as the cold flowed through her kacki cargo jeans.
"Not going to say 'Hello', Akito?" Kiada stood up walking around the kneeling girl, her red kimono flowed out around her, trailing the floor, "Well, that's rude," Kiada lifted her hand letting the back of it hit Akito's face, causing a sting to shoot through her face. She let out a low moan turning her face away, "Well well, looks like you're out of practice Akito. You'll need to re-learn your place. So, are you going to say Hello?" There was a soft noise the sounded like 'Hello' but was to quiet to notice, "Look at me when you speak!" Kiada shouted grabbing Akito's chin forcing her face to softly shoot up.
"He-Hello Ki-Kiada." The girl moved her hand letting Akito's head fall.
"Nice to see you- Hey!" Kiada ran her hand through Akito's soft silky orange hair, grabbing a hold of the back of it forcing her head up once again. Akito let out a low noise of pain before her eyes moved up to Kiada.
"I-I'm So-Sorry Ki-Kia-kiada," She stuttered out, this time when Kiada realised her, the girl's head didn't fall. Kiada started pacing around Akito, naming off the things that she had done wrong in the first five minutes of being here.
"Lets start by how you look, you're soaking wet," The girl smiled or smirked rather, "A drowned rat, that's what you look like, now, you're stuttering again, I thought I had broken you of that habit, seems being away and having your life go so eaisly hasn't been very good for you Akito," She made a low clucking sound with her tounge, "Tsk Tsk, what are we to do with you now? Let's get you changed now, get up," Akito was about to move but didn't do it fast enough, "I said up!" Kiada moved her leg and had Akito on the ground in one swift kick. "Now."
"Yes" Akito stood up, as fast as she could. Standing she was at least a head shorter than Kiada.
"You know I don't enjoy this, but you seem to enjoy it." Kiada smirked, "Have you grown into some kind of masochist, my darling rat? Well I suppose I should give you exactly what you're wanting." Akito bowed her head, following closly to the new god. Of course Kiada had a small black umberella, not allowing Akito any kind of shelter from the rain. "Come on,"
Akito was extermely happy now that she was out of her cold wet clothes and into one of Kiada's deep purple Kimonos. Kiada was taking Akito to the yard now that the rain had stopped to a small building to 'play', when Akito's savior came in.
"Ah Akito," Hatori's hair was receding somewhat finally showing his age. "I see you've finally come. Ah, you're as subborn about seeing me as Yuki was." Hatori glanced over at Kiada who was prostesting having her pet leave her without talking. Her eyes danced around as though to say, 'Hatori, we were playing, you can't take her away from me now.' Luckily Hatori was good at paying not mind to Kiada and streached out his hand for Akito. "Come on Akito."
The girl took his hand happily, nearly dragging him out of the main house. "Hm, never seen you in such a hurry for a check up Akito, ah," Hatori brushed his hand along Akito cheek thoughtfully. "I see, well..." His voice trailed off, he had seen the same thing with Yuki before but couldn't pay any heed to it, and could do nothing now about Kiada hurting Akito. "Come on then." Nothing but pity the girl.
"Ha'ri you're smart," Akito started following Hatori into a open room she remebered, this room held her happiest memories. Although Hatori wasn't the most talkitve person around he wasn't completly rude, just quiet and old.
"So I've been told." Hatori smiled a bit checking Akito pulse, "Any recent attacks I should know about?" Akito sighed and shook her head, "Any problems, allergies, anything in the air, Is the moutain air still bothering you?"
Akito rolled her eyes, "No, no and no, am I done here? Can I go see Shii-chan now?" Akito like Hatori when he got her away from Akito, but other times he got boring and she needed someone to argue with. Shigure was nice and very easy to argue about.
Hatori sighed a bit letting go of Akito's wrist, "I suppose, but look," He put his hand on the girl's shoulder as soon as she jumped up, "You need to come in to see me more often, and you don't need to stand in the rain so much, you're staring to wheeze again." Hatori looked her over, "Come see me in a few hours and I'll have your medicine." Hatori reasled her and Akito smiled a bit.
"You don't trust me very much do you Hatori?" Akito turned the corner leaving Hatori. Shigure had moved into the Sohma house when he relized that he was, in fact, not twenty. Akito wasn't bothered by this, she couldn't hardly go see the other kids in Sohma house, she had kinda been ostrasized by them.
A Millerific note! Alright, this chapter gave me a headache trying to differ between Akito and Akito. Eventually I decided to call the 'little Akito' and Older Akito.' I do expect Little Akito and Older Akito to have a little 'Sit down' within the next few chapters. And Thanksgiving break is coming up so I'll be able to write more! Goodie and claps. And yeah, I wanted Shigure to come in sometime so I moved him into Sohma house, yeah please don't kill me for that! But I'm going to actually try and get some sleep this week, so I might not write that much, but next week friends! Next week I'll be able to to lots more with these characters, I'm expecting myself to write a chapter a day. So peace out! Mille Narcissa!
