The kiss
"Kyo, wait!" She ran after him, holding her arm, she didn't care if she was bleeding, it would stop anyway. "Kyo!" But a figure ran at her, it was the sphere guy again, he knocked her out.
When she had awoken, she was tied up to a post, she didn't know what was going on, but she didn't like it.
"So the rebel is awake..." Haruka looked to see her uncle. "We finally got you my sweet, and you can't escape! right now, the boy and your father are probably fighting each other to the death..." He smirked, holding out Kyo's beads. "Too bad your boyfriend isn't here to protect you" Haruka snapped, markings spread through out her body, but her uncle turned his back, walking away.
Chains were her bounds, but she could break them easy... Flexing her arms, she tried.
But the whole house suddenly burst into flame, that's where her post was, and that's when it happened.
Sakura looked at Kyo, in his cat creature form, he was running, but towards the city.
What's chasing him? She thought. But, another creature, twice his size popped out of the trees and followed in hot pursuit.
"We have to go!" Sakura said, pointing to the creatures running into the distance.
"What can we do?" Yuki asked, also watching.
"We can slow them down..." Sakura said.
"We can't go near them without getting seriously injured.
"Yes we can" She handed him a shotgun. "We use bullet power"
"But this'll kill them, or at least Kyo, we don't want to hurt him" Yuki said.
"We're not, we're going to shoot at the other creature, c'mon!" They ran for it, getting closer and closer to the city, they saw more and more cars trying to get out of it.
"There!" Sakura aimed and shot, but hit a window. "They're out of range!"
Sakura watched as the much bigger creature overpower Kyo and throw him at a building, and then, throwing a car at him.
But Kyo dodged and ran away.
"Kyo!" Sakura tried to yell, but five spheres landed in front of them.
"No you don't" A woman said. "You're coming with me!" But Sakura smirked, she shot straight up in the air and grabbed Yuki's waist. They were soon in a cloud of smoke where Sakura took her escape and ran after the creatures.
"Stupid people" Sakura was tugged into an alleyway.
"Hatsu... Momiji... Kagura... What are you three doing here?" Sakura asked.
"Is that my Kyo?" Kagura asked, refering to the cat creature.
"Yes, it is..." Yuki answered.
But the five found them again.
"This is bad!" Sakura yelled.
'We can fight!' Hatsuharu, Momiji, and Kagura started fighting the people that pursued them.
"You two go get Kyo back for me!" Kagura yelled at Yuki. "GO!" And, that's what they did. They ran off.
Kyo didn't know who this guy was,or why he was attacking him, all he knew, was that he was going to die if he didn't do something. He turned and attacked the bigger creature full force, but was flipped into the pavement.
What now? He looked around. But the creature body slammed into him.
Kyo hit a building, and just missed three people that were walking by.
Shoot... He looked at the creature as he came again. But, something stopped him, a green forcefield like thing surrounded the bigger creature.
"I got him!" Yelled a happy Sakura. "I have-" But the creature roared and burst the shield, heading straight for Sakura. But Kyo side slammed him, which forced him into a traffic light and building.
Kyo huffed as the bigger creature got on top of him again, making Kyo lose his balance.
Haruka finally bursted through the chains, and headed towards her uncle, not even realizing that 1) she was transforming into her cat creature self... and 2) The bracelett Sakura gave her came off
She found her Uncle, he was still holding Kyo's bracelett. She growled.
This is more like it... See, I can kill him...
No... Change me back NOW!
Haruka, don't you see? You can't control me anymore... I control YOU Haruka felt a rush in her mind, forcing her own thoughts to the back.
No! Listen to me, you can't beat him, he'll destroy us! But the creature lunged for her Uncle. I failed, Kyo is in danger... DAD is in danger, and here I am trying to get revenge on my Uncle... How selfish!
You don't have to hide from crying in front of me... The voice echoed.
Kyo...
Picturing his face, Haruka calmed and she was back to her normal self.
Blood was on her hands, her uncle's arm in her hand, the other one that was human. She threw it down and stood.
"I have no pity" And ran off, towards the explosions. Kyo's bracelett was destroyed thanks to her uncle, but Haruka had to find away to turn him back. And her father.
Kyo... She thought, stumbling. I can't lose you! She ran into the park just like in her dream, but this time, she knew why she was here, why she must touch the boy... She grabbed hold onto his arm, her dad's, her eyes turning cat-like and her body forming markings.
"Daddy, you must-" But before she could do anything, her father pushed her aside, or more like throw her aside.
"Ouch..." She got back to her feet, Kyo was looking at her with terrified eyes. But she got in between them. Haruka watched her dad lunge to attack her and Kyo lunged to attack her dad. "Daddy!" Haruka yelled, wrapping her arms around his waist, tears streaking down her face. "Please don't hurt my friend anymore... Please..." She gripped tighter, the creature seemed to ease, but Kyo was becoming 100% of the creature he had no more control.
Haruka looked in horror as Kyo grew bigger than her dad's form.
Kyo, this can't be happening! Haruka tried to hold back tears as he started to destroy everything. "Kyo!" But he looked at her and started to swipe at her, Haruka's father got in the way. He was thrown like he was nothing. This isn't like you... Kyo! Tears filled her eyes even more,reality taking it's toll.
"Haruka..." Her eyes grew wide and she looked up from her hands, the spirit of Kyo standing right in front of her. "You are probably scared..." He looked down.
"I am...' She admitted.
"And now it probably means nothing but-" The creature slashed at the spirit, Haruka stood up and grabbed onto someone's arm.
"We can do this together" It was a male voice she hadn't heard in years, she looked up at the naturally white haired man that she grew up with.
"Daddy..." She knew she couldn't hug him because of the situation.
"Thanks Hatori..." Akito looked at the man that bowed to him. "So, there are two cat creatures on the loose?" The man looked up at him.
"Yes, one of yours and one of mine..." The man said.
"And the beads?" Akito wanted to make sure that the beads were broken before moving on.
"Here they are sir..." He put two beads in his hand.
"So he's now 100% creature?"
"Yes..."
But Akito knew he might still be human, if he had strong feelings for someone, then there was no doubt about it.
"Are you sure he didn't fall for one of the twins you were talking about?" The man scrunched up his nose.
"Truthfully I can't be sure, but I highly doubt that he did" To Akito, that wasn't very assuring.
"As long as Kyo is out of my life, I'm good with whatever" He waved the man off. "Now... Leave..." Akito looked at the man.
But the man had better ideas, he stood, holding out a gun, and shot him dead.
"Stupid nusiance..." The man sighed. His empty arm sleeve waved in the slight breeze from the window. "Get him out of here or I'll shoot you too" He looked at Hatori, and Hatori did as he was told.
Kyo, while in creature form, replayed his bad memories, on how his mother was afraid of him and she wouldn't admit it, Akito's reaction to his creature form... And then...
Kyo was around six when it happened, a group of guys walked through the gates, two little girls were walking alongside the front man.
The man whispered to the two girls and they ran off laughing. Kyo was throwing a ball at the wall of his house, waiting for something interesting to come. At least on that day, Kagura was sick and she couldn't threaten him. He threw the ball really hard at the wall, when it bounced off, it hit him straight in the face.
"Ha Ha stupid cat" Some kids that weren't zodiacs but were part of the family yelled. They laughed as they walked off.
"I hate when that happens" A girl had the ball in her hands and was looking at him. He sat up and looked at her. "Here!" She handed him the ball with a smile, her light brown hair flowed easily in the wind, it was short.
"You wanna play with me?" Kyo held out the ball towards her, she smiled.
"Sure, you start!" They played until the sun went down and she had to go home.
"I have a feeling we'll meet again..." She said. But he never caught her name. He smashed a fountain, water sprayed him, but he didn't care...
Kyo.. You don't want to do this... It was Haruka's voice in his head, but he couldn't control himself.
Then, another memory.
A girl with silver hair stood face-to-face with Yuki, not in a fighting position, but more like one was helping the other up, the girl was frightened and Yuki was comforting her the best he could.
That's when he felt something on his back, and then arms wrapped around his waist.
"You know, some people are calling me crazy" She laughed to herself, but it was a genuine laugh, not a fake one.
She's not running away? He pulled her away and threw again, but she didn't give up. She's going to die at this rate!
Who cares? it was the creature's voice, Kyo knew it was. She's just a girl! But Kyo stopped himself, the girl looked at him and smiled, tears pouring onto him.
"You said it was okay to cry in front of you..." She said. "Remember Kyo?" She cried into his stomach, since she couldn't reach her chest. "and I thought... Kyo... I am scared right now... I know you need someone strong in your life and I'm weak, but I need to tell you something..." Kyo calmed down and put one arm around her, he was still in creature form he hugged her, both of their charms falling out of their pockets, they gleamed into the rising sun... And then...
"Kyo... I love you" He kissed her, the girl that he thought would never like him for his creature like state.
"I love you too..."
Sakura: I bet you know who he kissed!
Uncle: It doesn't matter anymore.
Sakura: Uncle? What are you doing here?
Uncle: This is my story from now on...
Sakura: What, you don't have the power to do that!
Uncle: Actually, yes I do sweetie...
Sakura: Get away from me!
Uncle: Why? We are related...
Haruka: Yes but I'm not scared to rip your heart out
