Chapter 22
“Akito… why can't you just give up?” asked Shigure with a cynical grin.
“Because, I can't afford to lose them.” Answered Akito angrily.
“But… I thought you'd be used to loosing by now, after all… even you're mother Ren thought you were a loser…”
“Shut up!” screamed Akito. She fell to her knees. “Shut up! You have no… right!” she yelled again. Her hair waved around frantically as she shook her head. “Get out!” she said in a small quivering but stern voice. Shigure rose, but instead of leaving he walked towards Akito and stopped a few paces away from her. He gently cupped his hand around her cheek, and pulled her face towards his. Slowly, he parted his lips and breathed
“Give up…” into her face. He looked into her eyes deeply, and she looked into his. “…Unless, you want me to tell all-“
“No. You can't… you wouldn't.” she begged. Her eyes reflected those of someone abused, tortured, and crazy. He smiled at her, but his smile was different this time. It wasn't warm and loving, but cold and menacing. She held her breath as she caught sight of his eyes, they were too were cold and displayed no mercy. He turned walked out, his footsteps echoing blankly in her head. `What am I to do?' she asked herself, for out of all the people she trusted which were very few, she trusted Shigure the most. And she had not expected him to act this way, nor to betray her.

Haa: Shii?
Shii: what? B-but… I wasn't raising my hand…
Haa: I know. I just don't like you. -Smacks Shii with ruler. - Aaya?
Aaya: well… lets see… ok. Akito is the god of all of the animals from the zodiac. Like all the gods before, he is strict, devious, and cruel. BUT unlike all the gods before…
Fluffs: this god is holding a most terrible secret!
Aaya: this HE, is actually a SHE!
Shii: eh? EH? What? What was that?
Haa: very good. Now, who can tell me why Akito disguised him- I mean… her self during all this time.
Aaya: that would be me! He hem. Now, you see… -walks to board and writes down Reno-
Reno is Akito's mother. And Reno isn't the nicest of people. After the death of Akito's father, Reno started going out with many different men. She became a… well…
Fluffs: a slut. -Bows head-
Haa: for use of a better word. (Sarcasm)
Fluffs: oh give me a break.
Aaya: yes… well… anyways. Reno became strange, she wasn't right in the head. And she would always tell Akito how if she revealed that she was a woman, then none of us would like her, nor would we respect her. So, she brought Akito up pretending that she was a man.
Fluffs: now, Akito didn't always think this was right. But Ren had her in the palm of her hand. Ren would do horrible things to Akito, torturing her both mentally, and physically. She would hit Akito, and tell her that she was a loser. Then, one day, Akito became horribly ill.
Aaya: as do all who become the god.
Fluffs: so, both Ren and Akito moved to the main house. And so, Akito became a tyrant. She controlled all of the family.
Aaya: and every one thought she was a man, she would bind her chest, and cut her hair short, and even changed her voice.
Fluffs: then, one new years party, she met Shigure.
Aaya: and the two fell in love instantly. -(Ok, the instantly part, that was a guess. To make the story shorter.)- Akito told him her secret. And Ren was furious. But then, Akito met Kureno. Her mother had prohibited her from seeing anyone. But, she was going out secretly with Shigure; he would go to see her at the main house. When she met Kureno, she was confused. But she knew she liked him. And so, she told her secret to him too. They were having an affair, and Shigure walked in. when he saw, he ran to Ren, and wooed her. Akito walked in on them-
Fluffs: they were doing something…bad.
Aaya: yes. -Bows his head and shakes a finger a Shii- you bad BAD person!
Shii: whad' I do?
Fluffs: Akito was furious. She threw her mother out of the house, and forbade her from coming back. And Shigure, who was living in the main house, was also forced to move out. And so, there romance crumbled. But, they are still in love with each other.
Aaya: oh, how tragically romantic. Just like Romeo and Juliet!
Fluffs: this story is nothing like Romeo and Juliet. -Sweat drops-
Shii: Romeo and who?
Everyone: never mind Shii.
Haa: now, class dismissed. -Gives everyone his or her grade for the day.
Fluffs: I got a triple A+!
Aaya: me too!
Shii: I got a… wait… I got a… triple F-! WHY?!
Haa: I told you, I just don't like you.
