Author's Notes: I know you all think that I've ruined Tohru's character, but how can you tell from just one chapter of which, mind you, was basically from Kyo's point of view and will be told from the points of view of characters who only know Kyo's side of the story. So, sorry to have disappointed you, but, the story must go on, and, yes, believe it or not, I have thought it through. The question is actually whether I'm willing to take the time needed to write out this story so that you, too, can see the method behind the madness, the organization to the chaos. All I'm asking for is a chance to let the story explain for itself. So, take a deep breath and read on, or you know, don't.

Thank Yous: Maya, Animeisawesome, Ai & Sam for reviewing. A special thanks goes out to my Beta- Sciencegirl92.

Chapter Two: Upon Tohru's Request

"One minute I was sitting there, and the next I heard Tohru scream."

Kyo felt pain prickle behind his eye lids. As confused as he was, all he wanted to do was open his eyes (and get Momiji to shut up- his voice really was annoying), but that was about the last thing his body seemed capable of at the given time.

"And," Akito's acidic voice almost seemed to purr, "What did you see when you ran to your beloved," she said the word as if beloved was a particularly nasty four letter word reserved for lesser beings to use in every day speech, "Tohru?"

"I-he was- I..."

There was a lapse of silence, or almost complete silence. In the background, other than breathing, Kyo could make out a faint but constant sob.

"Out with it! What did you see?" Akito's voice only made the throbbing pain in Kyo's head more defined.

"H-he was, he was covered in her blood. I-it was on his mouth. His shirt. His pants. I would've swore he was trying to kill her if I didn't know Kyo better."

Kyo was finally able to open his eyes but what he saw wasn't the scene that had been unfolding in his head. No, instead of seeing Momiji relive what Kyo had hoped was simply the second nightmare of the day in full horror, all he saw was eternal blackness stretching out before him quizzically. Where the hell was he now?

Hell?

It seemed about right. Whether he was dead or not, he was in Hell. Tohru had called him a monster. She had been afraid of him. He was without his light. He was in true Hell.

And why? Why had his everything ran away from him in fright shouting profanities at him?

"Because-" His pupils, already dilated due to their futile search for tiny light slivers and clues as to where he was, dilated to the maximum. His head slipped to floor with an icy cold twang of something metal.

He had bitten her. He had watched her neck as if it were a live fish in the river or a pea on his plate. He had watched her pulse flutter through her neck. He had stalked her every heartbeat as if she were prey without even realizing what he was about to do.

He had been delighted to see her carotid artery flood with her racing, excited, contented, sticky-sweet blood. When he moved closer, her heart beat faster and it only added to his own excitement. Her neck had looked so... delicious.

One minute he was licking his lips, the next her neck. Neither of them had even blinked before he had sunk his fangs into her neck. Neither had been able to breathe. She due to surprise at first rather than fear, him due to pure fulfillment. Biting into her neck was like biting into the perfect stake or a ripened fruit; his taste buds were soaring.

But all it took was a heartbeat, from her to him, into his mouth, to stir up the panic hiding behind the initial shock. That simple, blood gushing heartbeat had pumped the venom from his mouth, through her skin and to her brain, causing the nerves in her neck to roll over with pain. He could feel them. He could smell her fear by then but, like her pain, it only seemed to entice him more.

Before he knew it, she was shoving him away, as if he had done something wrong. But something so good; so sweet, could not have been wrong. Not in a million years could it have been wrong. And yet, her face; something was wrong. In another blood spurting heartbeat she was standing, staggering, trying to get away.

He was up just as fast, so wary to let such good game get away.

She had screamed. It had been her scream. It had sent his fangs back into hiding, his pupils back to their proper color and size, turned her sweet blood upon his lips to bile. It had been her scream that had returned to him his human thoughts and left his vampire ones where they lay in wait for their next victim.

Her scream had him demanding, "What the hell?" Even as the stench of blood filled his flaring nostrils, the fear in her eyes betraying all, he tried and succeeded in suppressing the memory of what he had just done. "Tohru, what's wrong?"

"Don't!" Had been her response as she stumbled in an attempt to put as much space between herself and him. "Don't come near me, monster."

"Monster."

"Monster." Kyo hadn't realized he had even been awake again, watching the last bit of the evening play out before him yet again. His head still hurt like all get out, but the physical pain pulsing throughout his body was nothing compared to the ache in his heart.

She had called him a monster. Tohru had call him a monster. Not once even, but twice, and not only to just his face, but she had also told Akito the same thing.

"She said bit her, Kyo."

"I didn't. I wouldn't!"

"Don't lie. I can see the marks on her neck, plain as day. Were you trying to give her an everlasting hickey or something, Cat?"

"God no. I told you! I didn't bite her!"

"I said, do, not, lie, dammit! You were covered in her blood!"

"I didn't do it."

"It's one thing to bite a girl and admit it, but to bite her and not admit it when even she swears you did so? I thought even you couldn't sink so low. What kind of monster are you, anyway?"

"I am not a monster."

"To Hell you're not! You're a fucking sinner. You swear, you cheat, you lie and you attempted to murder the girl you supposedly love. People who aren't monsters commit one or two crimes, not every single one in the book. The evidence is against you, Kyo. You're a monster."

"I, am, not."

"Yes you are. You think just because one person told you she didn't think you were, makes you not one?"

"No. There isn't just one person who doesn't think I'm a monster. There are two."

"No, I do believe you are the mistaken one, pet. You being the only one, and between you and me, we both know that you don't believe that bullshit either."

"What?"

"You're a monster."

"What the fucking hell? That was NOT what I was asking about."

"Oh? Then what were you asking about?"

"I was asking 'what' about the whole 'You are the only one,' thing."

"Oh! I see, well, I know you're lying, you know you're lying so how about you just quit lying already. I mean, I know you're going to end up in Hell already and what not, but you could at least try and reduce your level of damnation. All it takes is cutting back on a few lies here and there, and, let's face it, that one was definitely shot out of the water tonight. Just like it was six yea-"

"THAT wasn't what I was talking about either, dumb ass! I meant what the hell makes you think that I'm the only one who believes I'm not a monster?"

"Watch how you speak to me, or I will personally damn you, oh wait, I already did that (don't think that doesn't mean I can't do so again smart ass, oh... just watch me)."

"What the fuck? Just answer the damn question, Akito."

"I said watch it, Cat! But seriously, other than you, the always gullible Cat, who the hell else would believe that weren't a monster?"

"Tohru."

"Try again."

"Pardon?"

"Marvelous! I didn't know you possessed such manors, Kyo!"

"I meant 'what the fuck? Pardon my manors before,' but I decided to shorten it up for you because you're so damned stupid."

"Says the boy who thinks Tohru is still on his side."

"What?"

"Do you not have ears of your own? I do believe I heard her all the way from here, my lovely abode, shrieking at you, the monster if I'm not mistaken, not to come near her. Or do I need MY hearing checked?"

"Maybe your head would do you more good."

"No, that, again would be you. Monsters always seem to have multiple mental issues. I really thought that, starting at a young age, I could have just beat them all out of you. But no, which, always seems to leave me to have to clean up mess after mess. I really had hoped you'd've learned by now... But, with that said, I should probably inform you of your punishment, of which the rest of the family, myself and even Tohru have decided upon."

"What?"

"You bit the poor girl, and she really does feel you are quite a dangerous monster- I can't say that I don't agree with her there. She also mentioned how she no longer felt safe around you and wished, that without having to leave Yuki's side, she would never have to see you again. I was simply going to lock you in your favorite room, but you see that doesn't exactly work, considering we don't know how strong our monster had become. I do believe both she and Yuki agreed that they couldn't sleep soundly knowing that you were still somewhere close enough to hurt her.

"Therefore, upon the requests of the Sohma Family and Miss Tohru Honda-San, I have made arrangements for you to attend a boarding school who deal with monsters of your ...detailed description."

"She really wants me to go?"

"Yes."

"Can I say goodbye?"

"No."

"How about sorry?"

"Not a chance. What would it matter anyway, coming from a monster?"

"I am NOT a monster."

"Her words, not mine- although, I guess technically they were mine, but that was only because I knew the real, neck biting you first. Ha! Neck bitting instead of back stabbing, oh silly words they can both weigh down and lighten. Such as the word monster, and love. Funny how you never hear those two words in the same sentence though. Not even from Tohru."

"I don't believe you, Akito. You're lying."

"Do you want to see for yourself how much she hates you? How much she loves Yuki and how scared she is. Do you really think you could bare to see her in his arms, knowing full well that you were the poor bastard who drove her there?"

In all honesty, he knew he couldn't, but it didn't matter, he hadn't even been able to say so either way because it had been then that Kureno had stuck him in the back of the neck with a tranquilizer needle. The next thing he knew, he was where he still remained now.

Where ever the hell THIS was, having flashback after flashback of the worst day of his life. Today, or was it yesterday? Last week? A year ago? Time seemed to have escaped him along with his location, the feeling in his appendages and his whole purpose for living. Losing Tohru was worse than being told his mother had killed herself because he was a monster because it was like losing his mother all over again, plus the only friend he had ever made, the only person who really mattered, the one girl he would ever truly love.

Really, he realized, he hadn't noticed the fact that he couldn't feel his limbs until the little pins and needles began to shoot up and down them signifying that they had been without blood circulation for a while now and were just beginning to come around again. He tried to move his hand to dry his cheeks of tears he couldn't remember crying, but found that despite their painful re-awakening, they were still clamped tightly to his sides.

"Damn."

Upon further examination he had concluded that he was bound, but not gaged, by rope around both his wrists and ankles which were then secured around his torso or lower legs, in the case of his ankles. He was laying flat on his stomach on something cool and slightly bumpy. Remembering his collision with it earlier and it's metalic sound, what Akito had said about him being sent far away, and the all encompassing darkness he figured he was on the floor of a cargo van being shipped off to Timbuktu.

His heart sank down to his toes as tears fell from his eyes and it was all upon Tohru's request, all of it.
