Revelations
Chapter Two - Revelations
"Hatori! I have missed you. Thank you so much for allowing me to return!" Natasha said, when she had gotten to the Honke. The sakura blossoms had just begun to fade, and it was always her favourite time of year. Not too cold, and not too hot. Then again, living in Canada, anything was better.
"I only wish I could have been there to greet you." he said of the 27 year old girl
"I understand that you are now the head of the family. I always knew you would be a good choice." she said, she sensed that maybe she said a bad thing
"Are you saying you did not approve of Akito?" he asked, almost harshly.
"I didn't not mean any offense. But let's face it. We knew she was dying. It was only a matter of when. And yes, I had thought about it, and I thought you would be a good choice. You are so wise beyond your years, yet you have empathy for your fellow man. That makes you a good leader, and a good choice." Natasha said to him, as she watched Hatori's face soften a bit with her words
"Thank you. There are days as to whether I made the right decision, and you just helped me realize I did. Now...there is a certain white haired man that is just dying to see you." Hatori said as he sat up from his desk. They had been in his office, which had been before Akito's main greeting room. Instead of it being dark, Hatori had made it a thing of light. Plants were in every corner, and it had a almost homey feel to it, yet with nothing else in the room, still very Feng Shui.
"Ayame?" she said as she turned to see a white streak and then be grasped within a bone gripping hug
"I...can't...breathe..." she stuttered out as he did release the hug and looked down at her
"Well haven't you just blossomed into the most beautiful little flower. A woman in her full bloom is always a joy!" he said in his normal exuberance, still holding her. Since the curse had been broken, he had taken every opportunity to hug a member of the opposite sex, and today was still no exception to this.
"I am not exactly sure how to answer that, but I will say, Thank you?" she said. He was not his normal flamboyancy, but she could see his normal traces of it. She then noticed that one of her other friends was not present.
"Ayame, where is Yuki?" she innocently asked. At that, he stiffened up, and glanced at Hatori.
"Ayame? Aren't you going to answer me?" she asked a bit more firmly. She sensed from their behaviour that something was wrong, and she wanted answers. Ever since the boys picked her up, everything had been topsy turvey and she wanted an explanation.
"Tasha, I think there is something you should know. When you had your accident, there was someone else with you. Her name was Tohru. She and Yuki were engaged to be married, and you were driving to the rehearsal dinner. Something happened, and we never found out what, but you had your accident..." Hatori started. He knew that by telling her some of this, it might begin to trigger her memories, that he had just masked, which was one of the last acts of defiance that he had done with Akito, after she had told him to completely wipe her memory clean, leaving her with nothing. For some reason Akito HATED her, and he never knew why.
"It was Akito. She stopped the car and with a piece of metal, stabbed Tohru. She said she hated the thought of her Yuki, her little mouse, being taken by a worthless woman. I tried to stop her, but she knocked me unconscious. I don't know what happened afterwards..." Natasha said almost in a trance. She then came out of it, and clamped a hand over her mouth, in near terror. It was like a flood or a tidal wave, but with that, all her memories came back in a rush. At that, she began to cry, as all the memories began to return.
"You are remembering, aren't you?" Hatori said, coming over to her, and placing a hand on her shoulder
"Yes, oh God yes, I remember. Hatori, you are the Dragon. Ayame, you are the Snake. Yuki was the Rat, Haru was the Ox, and Kyo..." she broke off as she began to convulse as the memories began to overload her.
"Ayame, quickly! Help me get her to my office!" he said as he ran back to his desk, and pulled out his medical bag. At the shouts Kyo and Haru ran in, and saw her in Ayame's arms
"PUT HER DOWN YOU FREAKING SNAKE!" Kyo screamed at the former snake
"PUT MY MATE DOWN" Black Haru added snarling at the snake as well
"If you both can calm your hormones, you would see that she is unconscious and in pain. Now both of you, get out of here. You may visit her later, when you can control your libidos." Hatori said, all business, as he found the syringe and filled it with a clear liquid that would help her sleep. She was going to need all the sleep she could get. Especially when the boys realized she had her memories back. They had no idea that she had gone to Akito the week before and asked permission to be able to court the boys. She had been rejected quite soundly, to the point, that if Hatori had not been such a skillful surgeon, she would not be with them. Akito had gutted her, with a letter opener. Thanks to his herbology knowledge, he had been able to heal her within a week, just a few days before the wedding, which was so important to her.
With this knowledge that he had possessed, it had not even left a scar on her. Then, the accident, that shattered so many of her bones, and the death of Tohru, which until just 5 minutes ago, they had all assumed had been an accident, a result of the car crash, as it had been a piece of metal from the car that had pierced her heart, and had killed her instantly. Now, he knew that had not been the case, and with Akito dead, there could be no retribution.
After the accident, while she was still in the hospital, Akito had told him to completely erase her memories, of everything. Everything that made her who she was, and what she was. At that request, Hatori had been agast at it. He had never seen her so malicious, and Akito was pretty ruthless. But Hatori couldn't do it. His own heart had been touched by this girl, and he did not understand why, but his God had spoken, and he was unable to say no. But, thanks to Tohru, the ties had been breaking. Kureno and Hiro were the first to break free, and then when Yuki had told Tohru that he loved her, and wanted her to be his wife, his own curse was broken. He suspected that when Natasha, not more then a month later, had come to Akito to ask permission to be able to date the boys, which surprisingly, the boys had been courting her, unlike, when Kyo and Yuki had been chasing Tohru's skirts.
Those two had fought worse, but then when Natasha had arrived, Kyo forgot all about Tohru as a possible mate. Oh, they were still friends, Hatori thought, as he worked on getting her to the office, with Ayame and the boys not too far behind them, but it was more of a deep friendship. Haru also had been pursuing her, but surprisingly, considering Kyo's possessive nature, he had allowed the pursuit, and most commonly, it was the three of them together.
Which one had been had been her first lover, that he didn't know, but he did know, that a dynamic had been introduced, as Hatori had been her physician, and had seen that she was no longer a virgin, and she had requested birth control pills. And the fact that there was never animosity with them, as strange as it sounded, she had to be having sex with both of them. By this time, Kyo was 18, and it was nearly graduation.
As he walked into his offices, where he still had his medical practise, he flicked on the lights, and opened the doors to the examination room. He motioned for Ayame to put her down on to the bed, and nodding to him, Ayame left the room, leaving just Hatori and the slumbering girl. Remembering some of the 'conversation' that they have had, he was now very close to this girl, hence why he moved heaven and earth to get her back into their lives. It had been purpetual winter here in the Honke, without the spring that both Tohru and Natasha had given them.
Life had been so hard for her after she returned. After her parents returned to Toronto, one of the major cities in Canada, she had been seeing a therapist that had been not the best person for her. He had told her it was all her fault for the accident, and that her memory loss, which thanks to his gift was complete, was her fault as well, that she must have done something horrible. These were the fears she had told him when she thought he was Haru, as Hatori, in defiance of Akito, left only few trace feelings for her boys, so that with luck, they would all return on their own. But after hearing what her therapist had said, he investigated what he had thought of Natasha. Words of 'willful, and stubborn, with a complete lack of empathy' had been written, which he knew was not true. Natasha was much like Tohru in that way, but with her memories gone, the way she thought of the world was gone as well, and the therapist wasn't interested in giving her back those thoughts. So using his training as a psychologist, as well as physician, he had been helping her, through the guise of Haru.
He had always kept the tone light, despite his growing attraction to the vivacious woman, because she belonged, to Kyo and Haru. Besides he was too old for her, as much as he had wanted to. When Akito died, the rest of the curse dissipated, with the exception of himself. He was still cursed, though he did not know why. But he suspected it was because he has never had a chance at love again.
Looking at her, he was awestruck at how lovely she now was. Before, as a teen, she had the beginnings of her beauty, but now, the baby fat that had surrounded her body and face were gone. Her hair, which had always been her pride and joy, was far longer. At least that is what he assumed, as the bun at the nape of her neck was quite large, indicating that she had a lot of hair wrapped up. Looking into her face as she slept, her skin was flawless, which in itself is fairly unusual for redheads, but her skin was the the colour of bone china. She had always had a blueish tinge to it, and today was no different. However he did see circles under her eyes, so it made him wonder what she had been keeping from him. He suspected that if anyone was going to get it out of her, it would be the boys. Of which, he could hear them shouting outside the door. Satisfied that she was safe and sound, he turned away and closed the door behind him, leaving her to sleep, as her mind assimilated all the lost memories.
