The dog and Kyo's creature

After Thanksgiving break, and Kyo getting better, Haruka was still a little worried about him.

"Are you sure you're okay, you got enough rest, didn't you?" Kyo shrugged her off.

"I'm fine' He said.

"Sorry" She said to him. "It's just I don't want you to push-"

"H-A-R-U-K-A HARUKA HARUKA HARUKA!" Haruka whips her head around, three guys were doing a little dance thing.

"Why do I have a bad feeling coming from this?" And that's when the three boys run over.

"S-A-K-U-R-A SAKURA SAKURA SAKURA!" the twins look at each other and then the group of guys who suddenly surrounded them, pushing Yuki and Kyo away.

"When did we get fan clubs?" Haruka asked.

"I dunno... truthfully, I don't" Sakura shrugged.

"Here Haruka, let me carry that for you..."

"Sakura, I love the way your hair blows in the wind!" Haruka and Sakura sighed, they pushed passed them, trying to get away.


Sakura was tugged by her wrist, she thought it was Yuki.

"Thanks Yu-" she looked up at the white and black haried boy. "Hatsu"

"I thought you guys looked troubled... Where's your boyfriend?" He looked around.

"QUIT IT!" Sakura heard her sister yell.

"I probably should go help-" But before she could finish, HatsuHaru pressed his lips gently on hers.

"I know you want to help her, but let's have the kitty do it" He smirked, looking at Kyo who was pushing his way through Haruka's fanboys.

That's when Sakura registered what happened.

Hatsu... kissed me... He intertwined their fingers and he kissed her again, this time she slapped him.

"I have a boyfriend, Hatsu, I suggest you stay away from me... as long you are in black" And she walks away.


A blue haired boy was sitting, watching the fanboys, and the orange haired guy getting easily pushed around. He rolled his eyes and jumped down from his spot, looking at the girl behind him.

"You okay?" He asked her. She didn't look frightened, she just looked annoyed. He turned to the fans. "Now I suggest you beat it, before I beat you to a pulp..." And they ran off.

"Thanks" The girl said.

"Eh, least I could do..." He pulled his sunglasses to his face. "Nice to see your doing well, my sweetie..." He winks and walks off.

"Wait..." She stared at the boy for a second and then realization.

Oh great, what is that stupid dog doing here! As if I didn't get enough complications from liking Kyo! Ugh! Why is my love life so complicated? Hisao!

Haruka sighed into her seat, which was right in front of HatsuHaru's next to Momiji and Sakura.

"What's wrong?" Momiji asked.

"You know how Kagura is obsessed with Kyo?" She looked at Momiji.

"Yeah..."

"Well, I have one of those admirers... Except..."

"He's worse" Sakura finally realized who she was talking about.

"What do you mean?" Momiji asked.

"Well, mix Shigure and Kagura together" Haruka started.

"No, it's more like Hatori and Kagura..." Sakura said. "He can be really cool like Hatori and then snap like Kagura..."

"Ah..."


Sakura leaned against the wall, thinking of how to tell Yuki that HatsuHaru kissed her. She sighed.

Is he going to take it the wrong way? She sighed as she saw Haruka talking to a boy she recognized from Yuki's class.

After awhile, Haruka walked over.

"Why aren't you with Yuki?" She asked, Sakura bit her bottom lip.

"Hatsu kissed me" She sighed.

"WHAT?" Haruka yelled.

"Yeah, and I don't know how to tell him... What if he thinks I kissed him on purpose, what if he breaks up with me, what if Hatsu asks me out? I'm so confused!" Sakura started to cry in her sister's shoulder.

"Don't..." Haruka made he sister look at her. "Tell him, it's better to say something and him finding out now, then to wait until your relationship is blooming and him being heartbroken..." Sakura knew she had a point.

"You're right, let's go meet up with the guys..."

"Cool" And they walked to the garden.

Sakura pulled Yuki away from the group and told him, but he didn't look happy.

"So... he kissed you?" He was trying not to yell.

"Yuki, I know I'm not the best girlfriend... But he kissed ME... I DIDN'T kiss HIM!" She waved her hands around. And then started to cry.

"I don't blame you..." He said, turning on his heel and walking to HatsuHaru.

"Yuki, wait!" Sakura grabbed his hand and stared at him, shaking her head. "You know it won't solve anything" She pointed out. He bit his lip.

"Fine..." And they walked back to the group.


Haruka laughed her head off as Momiji kept bugging Kyo about Kagura and his marriage. She couldn't stop, much like Sakura who was doubled on her side cracking up. Then, she felt something on her cheek, she opened her eye as a blue haired boy grabbed a mini riceball and pop it into his mouth.

"Hisao!" Sakura's words were the first thing that came from someone's mouth. Haruka looked at the boy.

"Hey there..." He smiled smugly at her, she winced.

"Hisao... Hey..."

"Nice to see you after so long, where've you been hiding your pretty face?" Haruka scooched closer to HatsuHaru, who was the closest that was sitting by her.

"It's- It's none of your-your business" Uneasiness settled into her stomach.

"Oh, babe, don't be scared, I love you" He smirked.

"Get away from her!" Sakura tried to get in between them.

But he moved forward, grabbing Haruka's jaw. He had done this before, the memories flooding back to her, she hated him. Hated his guts.

"LET GO OF HER!" Kyo ran up to him, pulling him off of Haruka, she started to cry, holding her jaw.

"Ms. Haruka, are you okay?" Yuki asked her.

"What? I get punched to come and see MY girlfriend?" He hit a nerve, Haruka cried into Yuki's chest, Kyo was still over Hisao.

"What's wrong?" Momiji rubbed Haruka's back.

But Haruka ran off.


Yuki looked after Haruka for a moment, then at Sakura, who nodded. They both got up and ran after her, hoping it wasn't too late. But after hours of searching, found nothing. It was dinner time and Kyo was pacing circles on the floor, Sakura was putting stuff on plates, Yuki was waiting for her to serve his food, and Shigure was humming high school girls.

"Thank you" He smiled at Sakura, who smiled back.

"You're very welcome" She turned to Kyo. "Kyo, sit down and eat, I'm sure Haruka's fine" But even Sakura knew that she may not as well.

After dinner, Yuki went up to his room and did homework with Sakura, she struggled with the History, so he had to help.


Tohru was surprised to see a crying Haruka at her door, Tohru invited her in and asked what was going on. After she got answers, she called the house.

Kyo came on the line.

"Hello?" he grumbled.

"Oh, Kyo! I thought I was going to get Shigure..." She trailed off, looking at haruka. "Anyway, Haruka is here with ne, yeah, she's fine, she was crying when I found her..."


Haruka looked at Tohru, but the doorbell rang and Tohru answered it.

"Haruka, it's Kyo, he's here to pick you up..." Haruka stood and walked over to Kyo. they left.

When they got home, everyone was in bed, but Kyo dragged her up in his room, he turned on the light and looked at her chin. There were two small bruises.

"How is it Kyo?" Sakura and Yuki walked into the room.

"Just small bruises, he didn't break anything" Haruka gently grabbed Kyo's hand and pull it away from her chin.

The next morning, Sakura, Kyo, and Yuki kept a close watch on Haruka, hoping that Hisao wouldn't come, which he didn't. They were relieved until Haruka had to walk home alone.

"Trully I'll be fine" Haruka said to them. "You guys just get your stuff done" And she started to walk, but instead of going home, she went to a nearby park.

"How'd you now I'd be here?" it was the blue haired boy, he landed on his feet, jumping from a tree.

"We were so close when we were little" Haruka smiled. "But then you started to listen to your father and started to become this butt hole I didn't know anymore" Haruka looked at him.

"So, Kitty, why did you look for me? I thought you were scared of me" Hisao leaned against the tree.

"I could be an actress, now can I?" Haruka winked.

"Whatever kitty, what are you doing here anyway?" He stood straight.

"You'd do anything to protect me right?" She crossed her arms.

"Kitty, of course I do..." He looked genuine.

"Then I have a deal for you..." Haruka pulled back her hair into a ponytail.

"What?" He asked, suddenly interested.

"We fight, if I win you call off this wedding, if you win, we get married after I graduate"

"Deal"

He made the first move, but Haruka saw through it, she ducked and kicked his back. But he got a punch out into her stomach, but she laughed and did a back flip as he started to kick and punch recklessly. She kicked him twice.

"Haruka!" Yuki and Kyo were about to join the fight, but Sakura told them no.

Haruka finally got bored of dodging and attacked, she punched Hisao in the face and kicked his side, she heard a horrifiying crunch, but she didn't care. she landed on her feet and smiled.

"You've gotten stronger" He moaned, blood trickling down both sides of his mouth.

"Oh by the way..." She kissed his cheek. "You can have that back" she walked back to Kyo, Yuki and Sakura.

"You did it! You finally beat the dog!" Sakura laughed at Hisao. "Take that you stupid dog!" He was walking away.


After they got home, Yuki watched as Sakura folded the laundry in his room.

"What are you looking at?" Sakura asked, catching his look.

"What, can't I look at a beautiful girl?" Yuki asked. At that moment, Kyo was walking past the door.

"Sappy much?" He said into his water bottle, he had just finished working out.

"Oh Kyo, you know you would say the same thing to Haruka" Shigure popped up from the top step.

"NO I WOULDN'T!" Kyo yelled.

"You're still just a stupid cat..." Yuki mumbled.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Kyo yelled. that's when Haruka walked over nd stopped in front of Kyo.

"No fighting boys, please" She sighed. "Kyo here are your blankets" She handed them to Kyo, who calmed down. "Oh, and Mitski is on the phone for you" She walked away, Shigure padded after her.

"What are you going to do Kyo?" Sakura asked him. "You know Mitski called to go out with you again, what are you going to do?" Yuki looked at Kyo, who shifted.

He walked off, first putting the blankets in his room and then to the upstairs phone.


"I wouldn't talk to her right there" Haruka told him.

"Why not?" Kyo looked at the girl and she nodded towards Yuki's room.

"Okay..." He went into his room and closed the door.

"Hello?" He said into the phone.

"Took you long enough" She said to him.

"What do you want Mitski?" He asked her.

"Look Kyo, I know-" Bt he didn't let her finish.

"I'm not going back out with you..." he said.

"It's not like you like someone else..."

"You don't know that Mitski..." And he hung up, he got up and put the phone back on it's holder then went back to his room and stared at the cat key chain. It was black and the eyes were blue, Haruka's were brown, but it resembled the night to him.

He crawled onto the roof, Haruka was there looking in the distance.

"What are you doing out here?" He asked her.

"What else?" She rested her chin on her arms that were on top of her folded knees. The full moon was looking straight at them.

Kyo looked at her for a minute, her look was sad, but no tear was to be found.

"Are you hiding the tears" He asked her.

"What?" She looked at him in confusion. "No... I was thinking..."

"What were you thinking of?" He didn't want to pry, but he was curious.

"My dad believe it or not..." She sighed and looked at the moon. "I wish he was hear, it would be like old times..." But Kyo sat closer to her.

"Make new memories then" He told her softly.


"Tonight" the man looked at the full moon in the court yard that connects all the houses. "Release the evil cat!" The creature ran off after the chains were relinquished from his wrists.

"We will tonight of the full moon, succeed, BRING ME THE BOY!" He surprisingly didn't wake anyone up when he yelled this.


Running into the night, he had one objective: Get the cat boy, your boss will be happy... A

Then the house was in sight, he jumped into the trees that surrounded the area and watched. Then he saw him, he was getting off the roof, this was his chance. he lunged.


Haruka saw the creature.

"No way..." She looked at Kyo... "Kyo, look out!" Haruka jumped, markings spreading through out her body and she landed in between the cat creature and Kyo, gripping on of the hands before it could touch him.

Haruka knew the markings wouldn't work 100% against a creature, but she couldn't just stand there and watch.

"Grr!" the free hand swiped her side, making her fly against a tree across the backyard. But she knew it didn't do much damage.

"Haruka!" Kyo ran over to her, just as the second attaxck would be thrown.

"No, Kyo!" She jumped and made Kyo duck, she wrapped him up in her arms as she got hit. ths time, she passed out.


Kyo held the passed out Haruka in his arms.

What do I do now? He thought.

"So this is Kyo Sohma..." It was another voice not too far away.

"Who are you?" He asked the man who just stepped out of the shadows.

"I'm a sphere" He said. "I don't have a name" He looked at Kyo. "If you don't want the girl hurt, you'll come with me" Kyo looked at the man, then Haruka, he put he rdown and walked over, he put a hand on Kyo's wrist with the beads.

"It's troublesome that the girl couldn't be the test subject..." He gripped the beads, Kyo tried to pull away, but couldn't. Haruka woke up just as the beads were taken off.

He stood, face-to-face with Haruka, he truthfully thought the curse was broken. He didn't shout 'don't look at me!' because he didn't know she was watching. he ran off into the woods.

TBC...


Haruka: Kyo! Wait!

Sphere: No matter what you do, you can't bring him back.

Haruka: What did you do? And how the heck did you know about Kyo?

Sphere: Listen to me Kitty, who you think are your friends, can be your enemies..

Haruka: why would I listen to you?

Sphere: It's the truth, you can't fight the truth.
