"Poor little rat" Kiada cooed watching Akito fall to the ground coughing, "I guess Hatori was right…you are a sick one." Akito looked up between coughs, her eyes reddened and watering, but fixed upon Kiada. Set in a deep glare.
"Not as sick," Cough, cough, "As you are." Akito kneeled on the snow-covered path again holding her chest tightly with her hands. I guess the sudden bravery came from the anger and fear she had been holding in for so long. "Yes lets all praise Kiada because her mother was the head of the family, because her mother was going to be the one to free everyone, because her mother was supposed to die," Akito smiled sanding, still coughing a bit, but standing. "Lets praise Kiada because," She smirked at bit standing looking up at the girl, "Her mother was a boy." Wrong thing to say, Akito was smacked to the ground. It wasn't as though she hadn't expected this to happen, no, she knew she would be punished by Kiada for what she said, but that half a second where nothing happened, that much was priceless. Kiada's mouth had dropped open as though she was planning on saying something, instead she went for violence.
"Stupid rat," Akito deserved the pain she was feeling now. Kiada didn't go for kicking in the stomach anymore, not she went straight for the face. Blood poured out over the snow, covering Akito's face, she didn't cry out though. Crying out would be like letting Kiada win, Akito wanted to win today. "Don't talk about my mother, you know nothing, you have no idea what she went through here."
"I do actually Kiada." The kicking ceased and Kiada got a fairly confused look on her face when Akito, battered and bloody, went to stand. "I know more than you could ever wish to know. Everything she did," Okay, so that was a lie, Akito only knew what Yuki had told her before she came here. "I know what she did to Yuki. I don't understand why you hate the rat so much. But whatever reason there was your mother nearly killed Yuki, did everything you've ever done to me only about ten times worse." Akito wobbled a bit as she backed up laughing a bit. "I'll be she never told you about," Falling into a fit of coughs Akito kneeled down again giving Kiada the perfect opportunity to grab a clump of her orange hair and pulling her head up and backwards Kiada was, for once ion her life, at a loss for words. She waited until the coughing had stopped, and even a few seconds after that to throw Akito to the ground.
"This isn't the end rat." Backing up Kiada looked her over, "It's early in the day, I do however expect you to come see me tonight rat." Smirking she obviously had something planned out. Not that Akito was going to worry so much about it.
"Tonight? Are you sure you want to go Akito?" After returning to Hatsuharu Akito had found him sleeping and Hatori vanished. But the voice at the other end of the phone was soft and reassuring. She hadn't been so sure about calling Yuki, but the second he answered the phone Akito knew it was right.
"Uh huh." Her voice was barley a whisper, but Yuki seemed to understand. "She said tonight, and I have to go…I don't want to but I have to. And she can't really do anymore to me than she already has Yuki San." She forced a smile as though it would help.
"Look I swear I'll be over there tomorrow, Iriko has to go back to school, Kisa said she and Hiro could take her to the airport so I'll have the day free. Akito," Akito twisted the phone cord around her finger hanging on Yuki's every word, "Be safe." The phrase he had heard from Tohru so many times.
"I will and will you bring Nagi?" Nagi was one of the only children Akito had gotten to play with when she was younger. Although most of their playing was fighting and racing they usually got along alright. "I want to show him that I can beat him now." Akito smiled to herself listening to the creaking of floorboards behind her.
"Of course." Yuki was beaming on the other end thinking about Nagi and Akito together when they were younger.
"Look I need to go, I'm bleeding all over Hatsuharu's floor, I should go before it gets any worse." Akito touched her face still hanging on Yuki's soft voice.
"Bleeding? Oh…Kiada I take it." Nodding Akito prayed the blood wouldn't stain, "Okay, if you need anything call then…. Bye." Akito didn't say a goodbye; she simply hung up the phone and shuddered watching another drop of blood fall to the floor.

She would like to say how very very sorry she is about this and begs for your forgiveness. She isn't very happy about this and will cry over her missing chapters every night.
