A/N- This was a sad chapter for me to write and you will find out at the end. I just hope you like it and review on it. Thanks!
"That rat" Kyo muttered to himself. Yuki had gone upstairs earlier to start brainstorming with his costume and Shigure had escaped into his study to begin working. Kyo was left hanging in the hallway as each one of they left. The cat kicked the edge of a rug that was by his feet. He grunted when it returned back to the place it had been earlier. Kyo stared at his feet lost in thought
Kyo didn't have any idea what to do with his costume. He had never done Halloween before. His mom would let him out of the house long enough to do it. She would always say how with so many people about he could transform. Then she would add, or worse your beads can be taken. Kyo almost spat neither his mother or his father had truly loved him. His mother was always afraid of him and his dad. He only knew his dad from what his mother told him.
Kyo began up the stairs. His hand trailed the banister as he walked upwards. With each step he took he heard a clomp due to the wooden stairway. Kyo reached the top and turned to his right where his room was. His door was swung open because he hadn't shut it when he first left his room. Inside the doorway there was a messy room with shorts and shirts lining the edges of the room. Each piece of clothing had been strewn aimlessly in any place in the room.
Kyo stood in his doorframe swaying a little bit. His feet had seemed to lose the ability to hold him for a tiny second. He fixed his eyes on a chip in the wood. It was a tiny chip, but big enough to bit noticed. It had been dulled off by years of wear. Kyo stood there for a second more, thinking about endless subject that each combined with each other.
He continued into his room and closed the door behind him with the bang. He trudged over to his bed, kicking a dirty shirt under as he passed it. Sighing, Kyo sunk into the bed. He felt the cushion collapse and the bed shift under his weight. He flung his legs over the side of the bed so that he was now lying on the bed staring at the ceiling.
Kyo was lost in thought. In his mind swirled thought that slammed into each other, each one fighting for his main attention. One thought would think about the Halloween costume, another would be about how mad he was at Yuki then another would be in his past thinking about the childhood he never had. Kyo sighed and reached for the ball on his bedside table. His hand fumbled over various items and pushed them aside. He frowned a bit when he didn't immediately get the ball into his grasp. Finally his hand found the familiar round shape. His finger twisted it in his hand and rolled it between his fingers.
Kyo returned to his laying position and tossed the balled in the air while he thought. He caught it in one hand and tossed it again. This time he caught it in his left hand, which was his weaker. He threw it up and tried to catch it with his left hand again. The ball grazed one of his fingers when it fell close to his left hand, but not in it. Kyo tried to recover it in a swift motion, but he could get his hand on the ball. He had managed though to bump it back up into the air with his elbow. Kyo tried to recover the ball in the air, but now he was on the edge of his bed teetering. As Kyo reached for the ball he felt the sensation of falling. Kyo struggled to twist his body around, but his feet got caught up in the bed covers making him unable to move.
Kyo landed hard on his back with a thud. He groaned as he felt the pain whip though his body into every part of him. His back was the most hurt of all from receiving the full impact. Kyo rubbed his head for the second time that day because earlier he had been dropped as a cat. He ran his hand though his orange hair and muttered a few curse words to himself.
Maybe he is just as stupid as Yuki tells him he is? Maybe he is just that dumb cat that always makes mistakes? But how can he not be? Yuki has always been perfect at everything his does. Yuki always comes in first while Kyo is left behind. Yuki was the one everyone likes and adores. And Yuki always gets what he wants. But Kyo? Kyo, with his short temper and sullen disposition. Kyo who is always quick to get into fights, but then never wins them. Everyone in the Sohma family loves Yuki while they are afraid of Kyo. Behind his back they call him a monster and most would like to see him gone. They don't care about his well being they just want him gone. He could sit isolated from the rest with no one and they wouldn't care. They would laugh at him when they see him in a cage. They had once before what was to stop them from doing it again. He had cried out to them before, but they just spit in his face. And it's not because of who he is. It's because of what he is. That's because nobody loves the cat and nobody ever will.
