Chapter Four
Shigure couldn't wait till next week to tell Akito, so he decided to tell him the next day. Waking up as early as possible, and trying to make as little noise he set out to the Sohma main house. He arrived around 11am and knelt inside Akito's room.
"What do you want?" Akito grumbled lazily.
"Sorry for disturbing you. I came to tell you about Tohru."
Immediately Akito brightened up. "She was in a car accident, now she has Amnesia. She's forgotten about the curse. I came to ask, whether you think we should tell her? Did you know about it?"
"Are you questioning me?" Akito asked in a terrifying voice. "Of course I knew. I did it, who else would do it? I hate that girl. She's always okay with everything that happens in that house. Kyo turns into monster, the rest of you turning into animals. What does she know about having this curse; it's not all about staying away from the opposite gender. Like me. I have to lead all of you, then I'm sick the whole of my life, and die early."
"But why did you do it all the same. Tohru's suffered many injuries. She could have died."
"That was the whole point!" He screamed in Shigure's face, taking his whip out and lashing it across his face, causing a deep cut to form on his face. "Leave!"
Shigure walked out of the room, clutching his face. He headed straight over to Hatori, and knocked on the door. "Been causing trouble with Akito again huh?" He said jokingly.
"It was about Tohru. She was in a car accident and she got Amnesia, I wanted to ask Akito if we should tell her about the curse. He said that he was the hit and run driver. When I asked he why he had done it, he took out his whip and lashed it across my face."
"Poor Tohru… Is she getting better? You should come in." Hatori opened the door wider and led Shigure in. Inside the bookshelves were filled with books, the desk was empty apart from some papers stacked to one side, a couple of pens and his picture of Kana.
He wiped the cut clean with some cotton wool and alcohol. Shigure winced as it stung against his blood still oozing out of his gash.
Shigure drove home, hoping Kyo and Yuki where maybe upstairs. No such luck. They were standing by the door probably waiting for him. He made an I-swear-I-didn't-steal-the-cookie-it-was-the-dog face.
"So your not going to Akito-sama then?" Kyo asked sarcastically.
"I had to go." Shigure mumbled.
"What did he say?" Yuki asked in an equally angry voice to Kyo.
"He ran Tohru over." Shigure told them everything from start to finish. Their jaws might aswell have dropped to the floor.
"That damn Akito!" Kyo screamed out. "I'm gonna kill him. How dare he? Try to kill Tohru! If me and rat boy didn't stop, he could have hit us too! Arghh!"
"Not in the mood he's in now. If you want to stay alive, especially you Kyo, because your different, I'm going to see Tohru tomorrow, do you want to come?" Yuki asked them.
"Sure, why not."
"And incase you get the urge to, don't tell Tohru about Akito, the curse, or anything like that. Ok Shigure?" Yuki said turning to face Shigure properly.
"Right." Shigure grumbled walking up stairs slowly.
A/N: Sorry if it's kind of short, I couldn't think of anything else to right. Please review. Thanks
