The Curse

Ricko's POV

I wake up and quickly get ready for school. "Bye Shigure!" I yell as I run out the door.

"Have a good day!" He calls.

I run to school, hissing in pain each time I feel a sting in my chest or back. I sit through each class during the day, trying not to scream or moan whenever something so much as brushes up against my back.

Finally, I walk with Haruhi, Hikaru, and Kaoru to the host club room. Hunny-sempai bounces over to us, wearing a cute police officer suit. "Hey Ri-chan, do you wanna to roleplay with us today?" He smiles sweetly, and I can't say no.

Mori-sempai hands me a suit that matches Hunny's, but bigger. "Thanks." I smile and go into a changing room.

Suddenly, as I took off my undershirt to put on the suit's undershirt, Kaoru walks in on me. "Oh sorry Ric-" He cuts off when he sees the fresh slash marks on my back. "WHAT THE HELL?!" He yells loudly, I bet everyone else heard.

"GET OUT!" I shove him out and panic.

'Shit! He'll no doubt tell all of them, then I'll have a problem, then Akito will find out then he'll bring me back to the estate then I won't have a life anymore!' I cry in my head.

I quickly put my clothes that I had on before back on and peek out of the curtains. I see that they are all on the opposite side of the room tht the doors are. I quickly dart out of the changing room and across the room towards the doors.

"Ricko!" Tamaki cries and I hear footsteps behind me.

I start to cry, with tears running down my face as I run. "Go away! Just forget about me! You'll regret it!"

"What are you talking about?!" Hikaru yells, sounding close behind.

"GO! GET AWAY! I DON'T NEED ANY FRIENDS AND I DON'T WANT ANY! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I scream, closing my eyes, but that cannot stop the hot tears spilling out.

Suddenly, Mori-sempai is in front of me, blocking my path. I quickly duck under his legs and speed up. I feel a hand on my wrist and I'm pulled back by Kaoru and into his arms. My eyes widen in the split second that I'm still in human form, then I transform.

There are several gasps and a startled shriek from Tamaki-sempai. "I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE! NOW WE'LL ALL SUFFER!" I scream, running down the hallway.

"RICKO!" They all yell, chasing after me.

Soon we reach Shigure's house and I transform form back just as Tohru steps outside. "Ricko?! YUKI, KYO, SHIGURE!" She yells in panic. I run into her arms, sobbing. She puts her coat around me to me cover up.

"What happened?!" They run out the house and Yuki and Kyo immediately turn on the host club.

"WHAT THE HELL DID YU DO TO HER?!" Kyo screams, charging for Kaoru.

"He's going to take me back! I can't go back! I can't go back there!" I scream in agony, collapsing to the ground in a heap.

Yuki takes me in his arms, not bothering to tell me that it'll be okay. He and I know fully that it won't.

"WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Tamaki-sempai yells.

Shigure sighs, "Mind as well tell them now." He then explains everything about the curse to the host club and leaves them shocked.

"W-which one are you Ri-chan?" Hunny-sempi whimpers.

"The freak. The wolf, the secret zodiac. Some of the other members don't even know I exist. The ones that do found out on accident." I speak with my hair covering my eyes, choking a little on the words. Tohru gave me some clothes to put on so I had put them on while Shigure explained everything and I calmed down enough to stop sobbing.

"And who is going to 'take you back'?" Kyoya-sempai asks softly.

"I am."

I turn in horror to see Akito behind me with a outraged expression.

Sorry it's short!
