By the time they got to Hatori's home, Tohru had passed out due to stress, being upset, and lack of energy.

"Welcome home." Kisa, Akito, Kagura, and Hiro greeted Hatori and Tohru, not realizing she wasn't awake.

"Ok, which room did you set up for her?" Hatori questioned, carrying Tohru inside.

"What happened?" Akito asked, noticing Tohru first.

"Is Tohru ok?" Kisa asked, concerned.

"Kyo and that Uotani girl showed up and set Tohru off." Hatori answered Kisa as calmly as possible.

"Just seeing and hearing them made Tohru run off and nearly get herself killed." Rin angrily added, shocking everyone there.

"Now, now, Babe. You need to calm down a little. Tohru is upset and stressed. Kyo and Arisa went around her back and started seeing each other—whether that is just a sexual relationship or not, we don't know. Either way, Kyo needs to stay away from her—and so does Arisa. And though we don't know who attacked Tohru, they're the reason she was attacked in the first damn place." Haru calmly told Rin, rubbing her shoulders.

Though he was telling Rin to calm down, Haru was becoming increasingly agitated.

"Haru…" "No! It is their fault! Tohru was going to try to cheer her best friend up after their other best friend was killed in that freak accident! Had that worthless ex-cat and that worthless girl not been screwing around, Tohru would have never left Arisa's apartment like she did! If those two would have been good friends to Tohru and she stayed there, whoever grabbed her, may not have been able to grab her because she wouldn't be alone!" Haru snapped, interrupting Momiji.

"That's enough now. Which room did you set up for Tohru?" Hatori stopped Haru before asking where Tohru would be staying again.

"In the room next to yours. We figured you'd rather in that room, closer to yours in case she had a nightmare or something." Akito answered Hatori, showing him to Tohru's new room.

"Thank you. Rin, I need your help getting Tohru into bed. And Hatsuharu: you need to calm down." Hatori thanked Akito, calmly told Rin, and then firmly told Haru.

"Right." Rin sighed, following Hatori.

Rin pulled Tohru's new comforter down, Hatori placed Tohru in the center of her new bed, and Rin tucked her in.

"Ok, let's get this straight. Hatsuharu isn't wrong: it was Kyo and Arisa's fault that Tohru was out the night she was attacked and disappeared. She caught them in a compromising position and left feeling utterly hurt and betrayed. And who honestly knows how long they had been going behind her back like that? I think they told Tohru that it started after Saki Hanajima's death. But as far as we know, they could have been seeing each other longer than that. However, what I think Hatsuharu is wrong about is Tohru being attacked that night whether or not she stayed at the apartment or not. Depending on who targeted her, we don't know how long they had been watching her. If they knew her routine well enough, they could have gotten her anytime they wanted—whether she was alone or not. All they would have had to do was catch whoever was with Tohru off guard—especially since we know there was more than one attacker. For now, all we can do is make sure Tohru is taken care of. No, she's not ok right now—and it will take a lot of time, but Tohru will eventually feel better. However, that can't happen if all Tohru hears is all the negativity in rage. That means you need to calm down, Hatsuharu." Hatori calmly gave his opinion before firmly telling Haru.

"Right." Everyone else agreed.

"So, now what?" Hiro asked, watching Hatori.

"For now, we let Tohru rest. When she wakes up, we'll go from there." Hatori answered Hiro.

"What are you going to do about work?" Kisa asked, concerned.

"Kureno has offered to watch over Tohru for me Mondays and Wednesdays. I'm off Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, so I just need to find someone to watch her Tuesdays and Thursdays." Hatori answered Kisa.

"I can watch her on Thursdays." Shigure offered.

"I have nothing going on, so I can come over on Tuesdays." Rin insisted.

"I'll come with." Hatsuharu assured Hatori.

"Ooh! Me too!" Momiji cheerfully declared.

"Can I come as well?" Kisa nervously asked.

"As long as you keep calm and do your best not to overwhelm Tohru, I don't care who comes to visit her. That also means nothing to strenuous: play games, watch movies, read. Just take it easy. And Shigure and Rin: as I told Kureno, you will need to make sure Tohru takes the correct medications at the right times. There will be a schedule pinned next to the TV." Hatori told everyone.

"I won't let you down." Shigure sincerely declared.

If it were anyone else, Hatori wasn't sure if he would believe Shigure. However, when it came to Tohru, Hatori knew he could count on Shigure—and the others.

"Thank you." Kisa and Momiji thanked Hatori with small smiles.

Elsewhere:

"You did what?!" Kyo yelled at Arisa, shocked.

"I told Tohru I missed Saki so much and was having a bad day. I asked if she could bring me something special to make feel better: Tororo Soba and a cake that night." Arisa calmly told Kyo—again.

"Why?" Kyo asked in disbelief, not knowing what else to say.

"I was sick of being the other woman; I couldn't take it anymore. I didn't like going behind Tohru's back like that." Arisa answered Kyo.

"So, you threw your friendship away so you could be with me?" Kyo questioned, raising an eyebrow.

"Pretty much. I couldn't help it; I liked you the moment I saw you and knew I had to have you." Arisa calmly responded.

"Ok… But couldn't you have talked to me about it first? If you would have said something about feeling the way you felt, I would have broken up with Tohru. I would have rather broken up with her than hurt her like that. And now, while the others won't say, they all blame us for Tohru being attacked." Kyo retorted, shaking his head.

"Sorry. But you do realize us going behind Tohru's back was eventually going to hurt her. In the end, this was the best way to get it done and over with. Also, I don't see how we're at fault for Tohru being attacked like she was." Arisa apologized before defending herself.

"I suppose. And I know you're right, but I just hate hurting her like that. As for how it's supposedly our fault: she caught us and then ran away, only to be snatched and attacked." Kyo replied, frustrated.

"Yeah, I suppose I guess I can see where they would think that. Come on. I know what will help you feel better and take your mind off Tohru and everything else—if you'll let me help you, that is." Arisa coyly teased Kyo, leading the way to their room.

"Yeah, ok." Kyo followed Arisa.

At Hatori's Home:

3:32 PM:

Since they arrived home, Tohru has been up and down—but mostly down with a slight fever.

For the most part, she only gets out of bed to use the bathroom. Otherwise, she sleeps. However, Kisa and Momiji spent half an hour talking to her; they even got her to smile just a little.

Momiji left half an hour ago for his violin lessons—with Momo.

Kisa and Hiro left a little before Momiji: Kisa's mom needed help with something, and Hiro needed to babysit Hinata.

Right now, Tohru was sleeping; she was starting to toss and turn.

Haru and Rin were watching TV.

"Well, we're going to head out now. Let us know of any changes." Hatori was doing paperwork when Akito spoke up.

"Ok. Will do. If you figure anything out, please let me know as well. See you later." Hatori replied, standing up.

"We will do what we can. But these people are smart; they seem to avoid all the security and traffic cameras." Akito replied, frustrated.

"Thank you." Hatori thanked Akito.

"Ahhh! Ahhh! No! No! No! Please, no! Help! Please, somebody help!" Tohru was heard screaming in her room.

"Tohru! Tohru, we're coming!" Hatori, Shigure, and Haru yelled, running to Tohru's room.

Rin and Akito froze in place.

When the guys got to Tohru, she was screaming and rapidly tossing and turning.

"Tohru. Tohru, it's ok. It's only a nightmare. Wake up. Come on, please wake up. There you are. Thank, God." Hatori gently shook Tohru, desperately trying to wake her.

"Hatori? Shigure? And Hatsuharu? What happened?" Tohru asked, dazed, confused, and out of breath; she was also covered in sweat.

"You were having a nightmare." Shigure carefully answered Tohru.

"Akito? Rin?" Tohru asked, seeing them walk in.

"Are you ok?" Rin and Akito asked, concerned.

"I don't know." Tohru answered before she started crying.

"Tohru." Hatori sighed, pulling Tohru into his arms; he let her cry into his chest.

"Well, it's a good thing Kisa, Hiro, and Momiji left when they did. They don't need to be seeing this." Haru told Rin after turning away from Tohru so she wouldn't hear him. He didn't want her to feel bad or worse—guilty he said that.

"Ain't that the truth?" Rin asked, trying not to cry.

"Come here. We'll get this figured out. Whoever did this will pay." Haru promised Rin, pulling her into his embrace.

"Six." Tohru mumbled, clinging to Hatori.

"What was that?" Everyone asked, watching Tohru.

"I remember six people. But I can't remember who they were or what they looked like; they're all blurs. I'm sorry. I'm soo sorry." Tohru told everyone before crying as she apologized.

"You have nothing to apologize for. You did great. That was more than we had before." Hatori insisted, rubbing Tohru's back as he held her close…
