How you pronouce Hakumei (HA-COO-ME)

Hakumei

Twilight's P.o.v.

Sohma Yuki and I didn't say a word to each other on the way to class. I was way too nervous…

He knows… something about me…I could tell…He was trying to remember…This is bad real bad…

"Here we are." Sohma Yuki announced as we got to a room.

I blinked, "Ah…Thank you."

I stepped into the room and all the students turned and stared at me.

I hurried over to the teacher and asked where to sit.

This time I get to sit in front of Sohma Yuki.

Why do I always have to sit by Sohma Yuki!…

Sohma Yuki and I don't have to next class together which was a relief.

But when I walked into the class I saw Sohma Kyo!

Arisa and Tohru where there so that made things a little better.

I sat between Tohru and Sohma Kyo.

Just like Sohma Yuki, Sohma Kyo kept staring at me.

Finally it was the end of the class but as I was heading for the door someone called from behind me.

"HEY! YOU COME BACK HERE!"

I turned around only to see Sohma Kyo calling me back into the class room. He walked over to me.

Do I have to deal with you right now…I'm not feeling well…

"Hey, you!"

"I have a name!" I snapped angrily.

"Whatever."

I was steaming now.

"MY NAME IT NOT 'YOU' OR 'WHATEVER'!!" I screamed as I stomped out into the hallway.

"Wait!" Kyo swerved around me and I was trying to get by and we ended up bumping into each other.

Oh shit!…

Sohma Kyo was stunned, and obviously confused that there was no transformation.

I took off running down the hallway.

He snapped out of his state and yelled as he was trying to catch me.

"WAIT!! GET BACK HERE!!"

I just kept running, I was starting to feel light headed but I couldn't let him catch me.

Then Sohma Yuki came out of his class to see me running.

He put his hands up to stop me,

"What's the matter Twilight?"

"TWILIGHT GET BACK HERE!! YOU HAVE A LOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO!!" Kyo yelled down the hallway.

Sohma Yuki sighed, "What'd Carrot Top do now?"

"Nothing! I just have to go!!" I tried to get around Sohma Yuki but I didn't even make it two steps before I fainted.

"Twilight! Twilight!" That all I heard as I fell unconsciencous.

I was in the garden, the light fading, I knew Akito was gonna catch me, and I could be beaten even worse then last time.

"Hakumei, come out! I will find you! You have to be punished from defying me again!"

I breathed lightly, thinking he could here my heart beat it was pounding so hard.

"Hakumei, if you come out now, I promise it won't hurt… much." Akito called again.

'I can't let him catch me….or I will for sure by killed this time…'

My side still hurting from when he threw me at the wall. I had scrambled up from there and hid in this bush.

"HAKUMEI! COME OUT NOW!! NO ONE CAN LIVE WITHOUT ME!!"

He stepped by the bush I was hiding in, I made the mistake of trying to push farther into the bush.

CRACK!

I took a sharp breath.

"I've found you now." He laughed evilly.

But instead of looking in the bush I was in he walked right past it.

I sighed out of relief,

Big mistake.

"I FOUND YOU!"

I screamed, sitting up in the bed, I stopped; my heart beating hard in my chest.

I didn't feel my beads on my hand. I clenched my fist and felt the restraint of the beads.

I sighed out of relief.

Thank god they're still on…

I then took in my surroundings

Where am I?…

"HEY!" I saw Sohma Kyo poke his head down from the roof.

"You're finally up!" He jumped down from the roof and walked over to the bed I was lying in.

"W-What's going on! W-Where am I?!" I stuttered starting to panic.

"Stop! You are at Shigure's House. Because we have some questions for you." Kyo replied, realizing I was starting to panic.

Now I was in full blown panic.

"I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!!" I yelled as I shot out of the covers heading for the door, but I was to slow Kyo beat me there.

"I don't think so!"

I turned around trying to get out the window.

But this guy was just too fast.

"Your not getting away so give it up!"

The door opened and Yuki came in, but not before I had made a dash for it and slipped by him, I heard Kyo shout at him, "YOU STUPID RAT NOW SHE GOT AWAY!!"

But I turned around and Kyo was on my heels.

Shit…

Tohru had walked out of the kitchen when I was about to run into her.

She saw me running and just stood there like and idiot.

But I had no time to stop and the hallway was to skinny to swerve around her.

So about a foot away from her I jumped up in air doing a spin in the air and landed on my hands and knees on the other side of her.

She looked stunned.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Kyo yelled

Shit…I'm really weak…I couldn't even jump over her without landing on my knees.

I scrambled up off my knees and tried to run but I didn't move fast enough because Yuki now was blocking my only way out.

I was stuck between Kyo and Yuki with no way out.

"Your stuck give up!" Kyo mocked.

I turned to him, and smiled evilly, my beads changing from shiny silver to pure white.

I'm not going down without a fight…stupid cat…

"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Kyo yelled noticing that my beads had changed color.

I raced towards him and punched him hard with my right hand, my beads left a mark on his check.

Kyo stumbled backwards, then lost his balance and fell on his butt.

"NO BODY MESSES WITH ME BASTARD!!" I screamed at him.

I think the two Sohma boys where shocked at my personality change.

Here they thought I was this shy girl, who doesn't speak much, and here I am jumping over people and punching Kyo.

I spun on my heals charging for the door, poor Yuki was still there.

I guess he wanted his ass to be beat up too.

I stopped an inch from his face.

"I suggest you move or you'll end up on your ass like Kyo." I growled through gritted teeth.

He made no attempt to move out of my way.

Stupid Boy!

I growled.

"I think you need to calm down Hakumei." Shigure said behind me.

I froze.

No one has called me that in five years.

I spun around now even angrier

"MY NAME IS NOT HAKUMEI!!" I screamed.

"Yes it is! It Hakumei Sohma. That is your birth name." Shigure replied calmly.

"NO IT'S NOT!! I'M NOT HAKUMEI!! I'M NOT A SOHMA!! HAKUMEI DIED LONG AGO!!" I screamed, then realized I had tears running down my face.

"Oh that's what we thought but she's standing right in front of me." Shigure said.

I slid down to the floor on my hands and knees, crying.

"I'm not Hakumei, I'm not Hakumei! HAKUMEI'S DEAD!! Dead I tell you!" I cried my beads where changing back to shiny silver.

"Good." Shigure muttered under his breath.

Yuki and Kyo looked at him confused.

"Huh?"

I'll explain later but there is no way to handle Hakumei when she…How should I put it? 'White'?"

"My name's NOT Hakumei!" I growled from the floor, my beds start to go whiter.

"So…What do you go by know?" Shigure asked crouching on the floor next to me.

"Twilight." I stated glaring at him, my beads stop turning white and turn shiny silver.

"Ok…Twilight. You've been hiding for the past…What?…five years is it?"

I didn't answer.

But stood up abruptly and said in stead. "I have to go home."

And I tried to go for the door but Yuki was still blocking it.

"Your not going anywhere Hak-" I spun around, my eyes flashing. "Twilight." He quickly said.

"TOO FUCKING BAD!! IF I CAN KNOCK DOWN THAT STUPID CAT, THAT DAMN RAT WON'T BE ANY HARDER!!" I yelled marching towards the still blocking the door, Yuki.

"I'll give you ONE more chance to move, before I kick your ass." I growled at him.

He still didn't move.

"Yuki don't move we have to calm her down!" Shigure shouted.

I spun around to face Shigure, my whole body tense, "SHUT UP BASTARD!! YOU CAN'T KEEP ME PRISONER!!" My beads where changing back to pure white.

Shigure seem to notice it, "Twilight, calm down. Your gonna hurt someone."

I was still steaming, but he's right if I let my other side take over then I can really hurt someone.

I tried to relax a little, but I was so pissed.

I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms, trying to regain control of myself.

Everyone was really quiet and I think Kyo was just still stunned that I'd knocked him on the floor to speak.

After about five minutes my beads changed back to shiny silver.

And then I collapsed on the floor from exhaustion.

My vision was starting to fade, but I heard Shigure say before I fell unconscious

"Lets move her back up stairs."
