Chapter 5
That morning I packed the few things I had, and the stuff Hatori had bought me to wear. I went out the the van and put my stuff in. Hatori was putting his stuff in when I came out.
"You okay?" I nodded slightly. Hatori sighed and went in the house to shut off some things and lock up. I got in the front seat.
"Ready?" Hatori said.
"Ready as ill ever be..." I mumbled. Hatori sighed and started the van and headed off to Shigure's house.
When we got there I stayed in the car, holding my dragon stuffed animal. Hatori helped pack things in the van.
"Oh this is so exciting!" The girl, who I assumed to be Tohru, said.
"Yes, It will be a good time." A purple haired boy said.
"Nothing is fun with you, dang rat..." A boy with orange hair mumbled.
"Shut up you stupid cat." The purple hair boy said.
"Now now boys, behave for the vacation?" Shigure said smiling. I whimpered to myself at the thought of dealing with all these people.
"Shigure, sit in the back with the others so Kai can stay up front will you?"
"Of course Haa-san! My pleasure."
"Thank you." Hatori got in the front and gave me a comforting look before starting the car and driving off. I stayed quiet as did everyone else, except for the orange and purple haired boys. They argued the whole way there.
"Now now boys, wouldnt this be a great time to introduce ourselves to the lovely young lady in the front?" Shigure said, tired of the arguing.
"Yes thats a great idea." Hatori said, also tired of the arguing.
"Ah, my names Tohru Honda!" Tohru said.
"Yuki Sohma, pleased to meet you." Yuki said.
"Im Kyo and dont believe anything that dang rat tells you!" Said Kyo
"kyo please. Im shigure. And your name?" Shigure said.
I looked at the mirror to the others in the back and then at Hatori. I started to panic inside until Hatori took it away.
"Her names Kai, and she is very... shy with other people." He said glancing back.
I sighed with relief at the thought of not having to speak. Hatori didnt say anything else as he pulled into the driveway of the beach house. There was a blonde haired boy standing outside waving to us.
"Gutten Tag! Hello everyone!" The boy said happily as he ran up to the car.
"Hello Momiji, help us unload?" Hatori said as he got out.
"Oh course Hatori-san!" Momiji said as he ran to the back of the van.
"Kai, your welcome to help, or you can go inside till where done unloading." I looked up at Hatori and then got out and went inside, avoiding any conversation.
After we were done unloading, rooms were given. Tohru offered to share her room with me but I refused. Hatori said I could stay in his room with him until I got used to everyone else.
"Momiji, why dont you take Tohru and the others out for a walk?" Hatori asked.
"Of course! Come on Tohru! Oh Kai, would you please come with us?"
I looked at him from my sketch book with wide eyes. "uh..."
"You dont have to." Momiji said understandingly. I nodded slightly.
"No thank you..." I managed to say. Momiji nodded, laughed, and left with the others.
"Hatori, where did Kai come from?" Shigure asked. I looked at Shigure, who I was drawing at the moment, and sighed.
"I ran away from an orphanage and climbed the wall to the Sohma Estate and fell and then woke up in Hatori's house..." I said. Hatori looked at me surprised I was speaking, and sighed.
Shigure was silent for a moment, then changed the subject.
"Whatcha drawing there?"
"You." I said not looking back up at him from my picture.
Hatori chuckled and Shigure pretended to pose.
"Oh make sure you get my good side!" He said way to well.
I giggled a bit and showed him my finished product. Shigure looked very surprised.
"Thats a very well done picture." He said. I shruged and put my sketch book down and hugged my dragon. Hatori smiled and looked outside. Momiji was just walking in with the others. I shrunk a little, and sighed hugging my dragon tightly. This was going to be a long vacation.
