The Good Curse

Chapter Four

Kyo looked at Shigure before Shigure said,

"The bad news is Akira didn't make it." Kyo was shocked. He then went,

"So what's the good news?" Now Kyo could tell Shigure was trying now to laugh.

"The good news is the bad news is a lie." Shigure answered before cracking up laughing. Now that really made Kyo mad, he screamed out,

"You moron, don't scare somebody like that." Kyo's screaming made Yuki and Tohru coming running upstairs. When they got there Kyo was storm for to his room and Shigure was laughing in the hallway. Kyo got finished changing his shirt and went to see Akira. He opened the door, but he didn't see Yuki or Tohru sitting by Akira, all he saw was Akira all bandaged up and unconscious. He turned around and went back to his room.

Later that night, Kyo snuck out of his room to see Akira. He had to. He quietly went in and sat down next to the bed and just stared down at his feet. Then suddenly someone asked,

"Why the long face, Kyo?" He looked up and was looking into her beautiful deep blue eyes.

"You’re awake." Kyo said happily. Akira smiled and said,

"You didn't answer my question." Kyo expression immediately changed, he looked down and said,

"This is all my fault." Akira reached her hand out and pushed his head up, before saying,

"Kyo, it's not your fault."

"Yes it is, I should have gone with you. I should've known they would attack you again." Kyo said and he pulled his head out of Akira's hand and walked over to the window. Akira slowly, and painfully, sat up on the bed.

"Kyo, I should have heeded your warning. You warned me that they might attack me again. I should have listened. If part of it is your fault, even more if it is my fault." Akira said as she slowly stood up and walked over to Kyo's side and looked into his orange eyes. Kyo turned to her and said sincerely,

"You idiot. Get back in that bed." Akira was leaning on Kyo's shoulder for support,

"I would if I could." she replied weakly. Kyo scooped her up bridal style and laid he down in the bed.

"Now get some rest." Kyo said as he turned towards the door.

"You, too, Kyo." Akira said softly. When Kyo turned around to close the door, he saw that she was already sound asleep.

The next morning, Kyo helped Akira down the stairs to the dinning room because she refused to have her food taken upstairs to her. They had been eating for about five minutes, when Akira said,

"There's something I need to tell you, guys." Akira knew she had to tell them sometime and seeing it was a Saturday, she could lock herself up in her room if they got mad.

"I hadn't told you guys about my part in the zodiac curse." This got everyone's attention.
"My part in the Sohma family curse is......," she paused for a minute before saying, "I'm the one who can break the curse." This astonished everyone, everyone that is except Shigure.

This Kyo noticed

"Shigure, you already know this didn't you?" Kyo asked suspiciously.

"As a matter of fact I did." Shigure answered calmly.
