Hatori's Point of View

* Flashback *

"Hatori what's wrong,"

I thrashed in my bed. The pain in my head only increased. I felt like someone was smashing a hammer into me. I screamed and held my head trying to make the pain stop. It didn't though it only kept increasing. I pulled the bedcovers off of me because they were starting to choke me. I screamed and felt hands on my back. I jumped away in fear. Clutching my head I scrambled back in my bead until I felt a wall behind me.

" Hatori, I'm right here. Mom's here."

I heard my mother's voice, it was comforting and soothing, but I knew it wouldn't stay like that for long because it always became angry at some point.

She held one of her hands out to me like she was going to touch me.

I tried to push further into the wall, but it was solid behind me.

Seeing my resistance to her touch my mother's hand paused and it retreated.

Suddenly the pain in my head doubled.

I felt all the wind get sucked out of me and I panted hard trying to get air in my lungs. The pain furiously sunk its teeth into my head, and it twisted my mind. My vision became blurry and everything went black.

Then everything was white. I felt nothing, no pain or fear, I felt nothing at all. Around me was nothingness. I would call it white, but there wasn't even white everything was just blank.

I tried to take a step back, but something held me to the place.

Frantically I looked around and saw something come into the nothingness.

It looked like a silver fog, just a few shades darker than the nothing.

It came towards me in a stream and it curled at my feet. It stayed for a moment before curling around my whole body. I tried to watch it and turn around but my feet were planted.

I felt a gentle wisp of air blowing against the nape of my neck as it passed it. The same feeling came when it passed my ear. The mist went ahead of me and then it began to take shape.

I watched as it grew in form and a figure became more prominent.

The mist began to shape itself into some kind of animal that I couldn't figure out.

The body of the animal was growing longer and thinner like that of a great snake. I began to think it was a snake until the mist formed legs. Four legs to be exact. The mist wasn't done yet because the animal still didn't have a head. The mist shaped a long graceful neck for the animal and it formed a head. The head was the most beautiful part of the creature and I knew exactly what the mist had formed.

In front of me was a silver dragon made of the swirling mist.

It stood before me for a moment watching me as I watched it.

The dragon smiled at me revealing a sharp-toothed jaw.

It opened its mouth and spoke.

"I chose a fine boy," The voice shook me and I couldn't help, but shiver. The voice reminded me of water. It was gentle, but I knew that behind it there was power. The dragon itself was like water, calm for now, but with terrible power that could be released on whim.

" Your name is Hatori, is it not?" The sheer power of the voice shook me again and I felt suddenly comforted by the power as it addressed me.

"Yes, I am Hatori." My voice sounded small and pitiful against the dragon's. When the dragon heard my voice, it smiled.

My heart leapt when the dragon smiled at me. I had an urge to please this dragon and I desperately wanted the dragon to be proud of me.

" It's very seldom that I get to meet with my human, Hatori, usually I watch them instead. We all do, us of the zodiac. Hatori, I've come to you today to tell you something that will affect all members of the zodiac. My friends, the dog, the snake and the rooster are already telling their humans."

I my mind I began to connect the dots. Zodiac… Humans… Friends… Dog, Rooster, Snake… Shigure, Kureno, Ayame… It hit me. The dragon before me was the dragon of the zodiac. He was the spirit that possessed me. His friends were spirits too, and they possessed Shigure, Kureno and Ayame.

"Hatori, listen. The god of the zodiac was conceived tonight. The child is to be female. Remember that Hatori, the god is female."

Then everything went dark for me once more.

End of Flashback.

"Hatori you in a trance," Shigure's voice pulled me from my flashback. I looked at him and glanced around me. We were in the main house, to my right was the sliding doors that went into Akito's chambers, in front of me was a slightly amused Shigure.

"Is Hari daydreaming?" Shigure exclaimed in mock astonishment.

"Shut up." I said firmly. "Are you going to open the door?"

" I hope Akito's in a good mood," Shigure muttered to himself before opening the door.

We entered the dark room. As we came in a shiver went down my spine and a little fear bit me. It always happened when I entered this room. My eyes searched and found the little bloodstain on the left side of the room.

It was my blood that stained the floor. It was from the day half of my sight was taken. Even though most of the blood was cleaned that one stain was still there.

"Hatori, Shigure. It's nice to see you." Akito's voice rang cold and ruthless.

I directed my eyes away from the stain on the floor to Akito. Akito was lying against the window, which was a popular pose for him. His head lay on his arm, which was half out of the window.

I spoke first. " Akito there is something we need your read and give your opinion on." Akito looked at us surprised and he scowled.

"Let me see." He demanded.

I nodded to Shigure who gave Akito the letter. After handing the letter Shigure quickly retreat and kneeled next to me again. We waited as Akito read the letter. His face remained stoic and I couldn't read it. Next to me Shigure was trying to do the same. His eyes darted between Akito and me. Akito took a long time to read the letter and once he finished he reread it. My knees were starting to protest from sitting in this uncomfortable position for so long.

Finally Akito spoke.

"Has this been clarified as true?"

"Yes, Akito." Shigure answered.

Akito paused thinking. Suddenly he stood.

"You may tell the rest of the zodiac, if that is what you are wondering." He turned to leave.

I spoke up. "What should we tell Yuki?" Akito half turned and looked at me through one of his eyes. He smirked.

"I will think on that."

And with that said he left.
