�Always keep your head up.� Kyo said to one of his students during a spar putting his hand under the girl�s chin and lifting it. The other student stood waiting to get on with his fight. Kyo stepped back and let the two yellow belts spar again.

�Hey, Kyo,� Haru called from the door of the Dojo, �Some kid named Nikkou is on the phone. Say�s he�s your son?�

�Could you take over watching them? I need to take that call.�

�What? Is he really?� The ox looked at him dumbfounded.

�Yeah� it�s a long story.� Kyo said as he walked past. Once inside, the cat heard Haru say, �Rei, put this hand in front of that one to get a better block��

�Nikkou?� Kyo asked once he picked up the phone.

�What took so long? What, you think that just cause I�m a kid means I don�t have other things to do?� Nikkou sighed on the phone.

�Okay� why did you call?� Kyo got right to the point.

�Yeah, I think mom misses you. She�s been sighing a lot and stuff� so I was thinking it might be nice for us to come visit you next time. I was wondering when would be a good time to shoot for, seeing as how I need to save my allowance.�

�Are you going to pay for the trip� yourself?� Kyo tried to hide he amusement.

�Of course, we can�t have mom pay for her own vacation.�

�I see� well, school starts again in about a month and a half so how about a month? If you need I could sent some money to help pay for the two of you.�

�And why would I accept money form you?� the nine year old asked in a scrutinizing tone of voice.

�Because I�m the dead beat that helped being you into this world and haven�t lifted a finger to help take care of you.� Kyo said as matter of fact as he could. Years of working with children had yielded a few positive results.

�You have a point, of once. Okay I�ll figure out how much this is going to cost and call you.� Nikkou said.

�Good.� Kyo replied.

�I�ll call in a few days, okay?�

�Okay.� The cat said. Both he and the boy hung up after saying their good byes. Kyo went back out to his students.

�You have a kid?� Haru asked.

�Yeah� he�s mine and Tohru�s.� Kyo scratched that back of his head.

�How old?� The ox asked.

�He�ll be ten in December.�

�His birthday�s right around yours, huh?� Haru asked.

�Yeah he acts a lot like Hiro too. But he�s really smart.�

�Oya-baka*, are we.� The ox grinned.

�Not really, it�s true.� Kyo watched his students who were starting to get a little giggly. �Okay try form ten.� At the expressions on their faces he said, �You do remember form ten right? Okay, Haru, come here��

Nikkou went back to his room to look up train prices on the computer. Since Kyo had stayed with them it would only make sense that they would stay with him.

�Nik-chan, Uo�s here with Kureno and Shishi. Would you like to go with them to the park?� Tohru asked from the door.

�Sure.� Nikkou said shutting down his computer. He turned to his mother who was smiling in the door. The boy smiled back and took her hand, �You have to come too.�

�Okay.� She said as they walked towards the living room.

�Big brother!� Shishi exclaimed happily.

�Is Aunt Saki coming to?�

�Hana? I don�t know, we could ask.� Uo said holding her son�s right hand, his left in the much larger one of his father.

�We can make a day of it!� Tohru said happily.

�Yeah.� Uo agreed.

�I�ll go ask.� Nikkou left before anyone could say anything.

�So how was Kyo- Kyo�s visit?� Uo asked Tohru.

She swallowed before answering, �It was nice. I think Nikkou warmed up to him a little.�

�I can�t believe you didn�t tell him. Kyo I mean.� The Yankee said pulling the little boy up to her hip.

�I� I wanted to but it wouldn�t have been right.� Tohru said softly.

�Mommy, I need to go potty.� Shishi announced to the room. Uo laughed and took him to the toilet room.

�Did Nikkou see Kyo�s form?� Kureno asked after the door was closed.

�Yes and he didn�t mind it. I think he said it was cool.� Tohru giggled a little.

Kureno smiled, �that�s good. That was the only thing I was worried about.�

�Daddy, I peed all by myself!� the toddler said gripping Kureno�s pant leg.

�Good job!� the man said picking up his son. He turned to Tohru and Uo, �We should go over to Ishiku�s. And then to the park.�

News about Kyo�s son spread like wild fire through the Sohma�s especially through the zodiac. It was fairly certain that the trail went from Haru to Rin since their married then to Kagura because their friends then to Kisa and Hiro then to the Madubachi trio (Hatori didn�t seem shocked by the news like everyone else). It�s not really sure in what order everyone else found because the two biggest gossips had been told pretty early on. Within a week almost everyone in the zodiac had come to confirm the news. Even Ritsu who apologized for not finding out for him and saying anything. Ayame asked if the child was anything like the vain snake. Shigure congratulated him on being able to do it without the dog knowing. The biggest surprise was Hatori�s visit. He simply asked if Tohru and her son were doing well.

�Why do I get the feeling you�re keeping something from me?� Kyo asked.

Hatori sat down on the ledge outside Kyo�s house. �I knew about Tohru�s pregnancy.�

�You what?� Kyo shouted.

�I am a doctor. She had come to me saying that she felt sick. And it had lasted for the better part of two weeks. But when I examined her, it turned out that she was pregnant.�

�Do you know why she left then? Why didn�t you tell me?�

�Akito.� That single name ran a shiver down Kyo�s back. �Akito summoned her after he found out about the child and told her that she could have her memory erased, leave or give up the baby. It was a difficult decision for her. Eventually she decided to leave to protect you and the child.� Kyo was quiet for a moment while he processed what said. Tohru had protected him.

�What�s his name?� Hatori asked.

�Huh? Oh, Nikkou.� Kyo rubbed his eyes with his index and forefingers.

�A nice strong name.� Hatori said pulling out a cigarette and lighting it. Kyo had made it clear that he didn�t want anyone smoking inside.

�I need to make a phone call.� Kyo excused himself and went to the phone. He dialed the number that had taken up permanent residence next to the phone.

�Honda Cleaning Services� Tohru�s voice chimed through the receiver.

�Tohru?� Kyo asked.

�Oh Kyo! How are you? This is unexpected� not to say I don�t like to here from you and��

�May I speak to Nikkou?� Kyo cut her off.

�Of course.� The cat listened as Tohru called to the boy.

�Hello?� Nikkou said into the phone.

�Hey, how soon could you get up here? I�ll buy the tickets today. I have just heard something interesting.�

�What is it?� the boy asked curiously.

�It needs to be talked over in person.� Kyo said. �How about two days? Would that be alright?�

�Two days� I guess that could work.� Nikkou turned to his mom, �We�re going to visit Kyo in two days.�

�What? Oh no! I couldn�t� I have a lot of work to do� we have to pack and I have to call the cleaners and I have to let Hana and Uo know and��

�Mom! Don�t worry about it. Kyo already bought the tickets, so it would be rude not to go.� Nikkou felt bad about lying but it was the only way to get her to go.

�Alright, we�ll go. I have so much work to do.� Tohru sat down and began to make a list.

�Two days is fine. I should go, mom has work to do.� The men said their good byes and Nikkou handed the phone back to Tohru. �I�m going to go pack.� He said leaving. Tohru took a moment to smile at him then panicked a little when she realized there was still a lot of work.
