Kami stretched her arms as she walked home. It had been a long day at school. Test after test. Sometimes she hated school. At least she wasn't as bad as Natsuki who would ditch school if she could.

"Kami!" Kami stopped and looked over as Akemi came running towards them.

"Hi Akemi." Kami smiled. "What's up?"

"Just rushing home. Mom said she was going to make my favorite dinner tonight." Akemi grinned. "I can't wait."

"I bet that will be fun. What's the occasion?"

"Nothing special. Mom just said she felt like doing something fun."

"I see." Kami laughed and looked up as they arrived at the Kibaru complex. Standing in front of the complex was a crowd of people and smoke was lifting into the sky. "What's going on?!" Kami spotted her father and rushed towards him. "Dad!"

"Kami." Her father wrapped his arms around her. "Thank goodness."

"What's going on?"

"The main house caught on fire." He looked off towards the main house. "No one is sure how it started though."

"What has Yukio said?" Akemi asked looking around, she perked up seeing her mom and rushed over to her. "Mom!"

Kami looked around. "Where is Yukio?"

"No one has seen him yet." Her dad frowned. "I wonder if he is still inside."

"WHAT?!" Kami looked at the house where the smoke was coming from. "I have to go save him!" Kami rushed away from her father into the house.

"KAMI!"

Kami ignored him. Her heart was pounding as she worried about Yukio. True he was not her favorite person but he was important to the Kibaru cursed family members. For one think he took care of the family, even if it wasn't the greatest way. Kami was also drawn towards him. She had to protect him, that was her cursed instincts talking. "YUKIO!" Kami yelled as she ran through the smoke filled house. "YUKIO WHERE ARE YOU?!" Kami started coughing as she breathed in smoke.

Hatori ran his hand through his hair. He was still trying to decided it he needed it cut again. At least that was what he pretended to be thinking about. His real thoughts kept straying to Kami. How was she? He still thought about Shouta and how the boy had mentioned the Kibaru head.

Now that he thought about it as well he was near the Kibaru household. Hatori stopped and looked up at the sky. "Kami…"

He was interrupted by the sound of a fire truck. Hatori watched as the truck came flying past him and down the street. "What is that about?"

Hatori continued to walk but froze as he realized where the fire was coming from. It was the direction of the Kibaru complex. Kami! Hatori started running until he saw the ambulance. A gurney was being wheeled towards the back of the ambulance. Hatori sped up as he recognized the figure on the gurney. "Kami!" Hatori rushed over to the doctors there.

"Wait." One held up his hand.

"My name is Hatori Sohma, I'm a doctor and I know that girl." Hatori said as professionally as he could. "What happened?"

The doctor eyed him for a moment and then nodded. "The girl made a foolish decision to rush into the burning house. She did save that guys live." The doctor jestered towards where a brown haired man was being looked at a bit away. "But she inhaled a lot of smoke in the process."

"How is the man?"

"He's good, we are leaving a few people to take care of him, but we are taking her to the hospital to be looked at."

"I see." Hatori nodded. "Do you need an extra hand?" I want to take care of her.

"That would actually be very appreciated."

Hatori nodded and climbed into the ambulance next to Kami. She looked so weak. Her eyes were closed and an oxygen mask covered her nose and mouth. Soot laced her hair and clothes. The doors closed behind him and Hatori reached down and held Kami's hand as the ambulance started moving. "Kami."

Her eyes flickered open. "H… Hatori…" Her voice sounded so weak and frail. She looked at him and then her head collapsed to the side as she fell back asleep.

"Don't worry I'm not leaving your side." Hatori whispered.
