Hana heard a distant voice, "Hanajima-chan? Hanajima-chan?". She just grunted and rolled over on the bed. Wait, where was she? Her eyes shot open and she studied her surrounding. She was in a dark room. It was still storming outside. She remembered what she was doing before she got knocked out. "The house is on fire!" she yelled suddenly.

The man pushed her back onto the futon where she lay, "Hanajima-chan, the house isn't on fire. You must have hit your head pretty hard." he said.

"Where am I?" she asked, forgetting about the house for a moment.

The man stared at her for a moment, "Your at Kazuma's dojo, in the guest bedroom, on a futon, next to the closet." he said bluntly.

The memories of the night came rushing back to Hana, causing a bad headache. She whimpered and leaned on the wall. "But the house," she said, a little out of it, "lightning struck outside the house, and then there was smoke everywhere. Where's Kyo. He wasn't there after the lightning struck."

Kunimitsu looked uneasy, "Uh, drink this." he said and handed her a cup of tea. She took it from him and drank it in small comforting sips. When she finished the cup Kunimitsu took it from her and said, "I think it's time for you to talk to Kazuma. He's better at explaining things than I am."

Hana stared at him confused for a second then got up and followed him into the other room where Kyo once lay. Kyo no longer lay on the couch, covered by blankets, now in his spot lay a cat. An orange sickly looking cat. Hana stared at the cat in wonder. Kazuma lay by it's side talking to it. Everyone and a while the cat would give a weird hacking coughing sound, and Kazuma's voice would get a bit more worried and determined whenever this happened.

Kunimitsu cleared his through, to signify their presents, "Uh, Sensei?" Kazuma slowly turned to look at them, his eyes were red but he wouldn't shed a tear. "I think you should talk to Hanajima-chan about this situation now." he said, unsure.

Kazuma nodded. He slowly got up and went into the kitchen for them to talk. "Can I get you anything?" he asked Hana, "Do you need to call home?"

"The phone lines are down." she said.

"Could I give you a ride home? Surely your parents are worried about you." he said.

"That would be helpful" she paused, "but first tell me what's going on."

Kazuma looked very pained, "Could I ask you something?" he started, Hana nodded, "Where did you find Kyo?"

"In a ditch, about five miles north of town, unconscious." she said. Kazuma paled a bit.

"H-how did you come a crossed him?" he asked.

"Well, I was looking for him." she said.

Kazuma stared at her, confused, "Huh?" he said, not able to understand what she meant. "You say you were looking for him? How did you know something was wrong."

Hana sighed, she hated explaining this, "Well, you see, this may sound crazy, but I can feel peoples 'waves'. There emotions and feelings. Sort of like mind reading. For example, right now you are thinking that I am insane and just want to get back to Kyo."

Kazuma still stared, "Then how did you know what happened to Kyo?"

"I didn't," she said, "but you see, the Sohmas have a very different sort of wave. Like, in-human. I couldn't figure out which Sohma it was, but I knew it was a Sohma. So I went looking for him."

"Uha," Kazuma said, still a bit confused.

"When I found Kyo, in his mind he was saying that he didn't transform. And when he got here, he said that Akito wouldn't let him go to America because he wasn't part of the Juunishi." She said.

Kazuma looked worried, "I don't know what yo--"

Hana ignored him, "Does Kyo get that a lot? I mean, being the cat from the Zodiac and all, it must be pretty hard on him."

Kazuma starred.

Muahahahaha...cliff hanger. I know this is a really short chapter but I wanted it to end this way. I got a very helpful reply from Eternal Serena, the other ,day pointing out that I was spelling Tohru, Hanajima, and Kagura's name wrong. Why didn't anyone tell me sooner! Now I feel dumb! Oh, well, Read and Review.
