What is it about Tohru that makes a lot of us put her in violent situations? Maybe it's because we like having one of the boys (in my story, Kyo) come to her rescue somehow!!

[FLASHBACK]
'Now what should I do for dinner...' She wanted something special since it was the first day of the holiday break. 'Maybe I will call Momiji and see if we can invite everyone else!' She thought happily. As she got to the house, she noticed a car parked in front. Recognizing it as Hatori's car. Opening the door she called out, "Hello! I'm home! Shigure? Kyo? Yuki? Is Hatori here? Is he staying for dinner?"
"Hello Tohru Honda. How are you this evening?" a soft, malicous voice floated from the front room. Tohru gasped as she saw Akito step out into view. "Close that door, I can't get sick now can I? If I do, who would be to blame hm?" Akito tilted his head lightly. Tohru slammed the door shut quickly, but couldn't form any words. If Akito was here, where was everyone else??? What is going on??? What should she do??
"I believe we have a few things to discuss Miss Honda. But first, that is a very fine coat. Where on earth did you get it?" She could feel Akito's slim fingers lightly at her shoulder, and instinctivly cringed. She had no idea what to do, she just hoped that someone would come soon......
[END FLASHBACK]
"Umm...Akito, I'm sorry I didn't expect to see you today? How are you? Oh I'm sorry! I hope that it isn't too cold in here!" Tohru nudged closer towards the door, and farther away from Akito's slim fingers. It had been a while since she had seen him, and their last encounter was far from pleasant seeing as Akito had clawed her left cheek and punched Momiji that one rainy summer night. She felt her left cheek twinge slightly and struggled not to raise a hand to touch it. Sweat began to form on her forhead, and she began to feel much too warm, either from leaving the coat on or just by being in Akito's presence.
"Why, Miss Honda, you're not nervous are you? I hope that I'm not imposing on you this evening. I would just like to have a few..words with you..." Akito said, all too sweetly. Tohru swallowed, only to find that her throat had tightned up out of tension.
"Since it is the second holiday season that you will be celebrating with us, I just wanted to know what your plans were.." Akito tilted his head in mock curiosity. Tohru had no idea how to answer this question, and furthermore, why Akito was asking it in the first place. Afraid to lie (and knowing she just couldn't do it in the first place) Tohru shakily told the truth. "Well, I thought, that for Christmas, we would celebrate here, Kyo, Yuki, Shigure and I, and maybe anyone other Sohma that wanted to come along. I know that they all have to go back to the Sohma house for New Years so, um...I thought..I thought that I would just stay here again this year?" Tohru ended her explination with a question, knowing that Akito did not want her at the Sohma's for the New Year. It was a special time just for the Sohma clan itself, and as Akito explained the night he gave her the injury on her cheek, she was not invited at all. "That's right, you won't be attending at all. And you won't keep Yuki or Kyo here either like you did last time." Akito stated, with a cold smile on his face. Tohru was confused however, about Akito's instruction at wanting to have Kyo for New Year's as well. Before she knew it, she had blurted out, "But why Kyo? I thought that the Cat wasn't allowed to the banquet at all? Ever? Are you just going to make him sit out there in the cold?" As soon as the last word left her mouth, Akito had slapped her across the cheek. "How DARE you speak to me like that!!!" He kicked her while she was down, finding both pleasure and disgust at the whimpering sounds that she had made. "I am the God of the zodiac, Kyo will do as I please!!" He kicked her again hard in the stomach. "No one can go against me, not unless they know what's best for them." SLAP!! Tohru, now bleeding from the lip and clutching her stomach, was sobbing on the ground while Akito emphasized each sentence with a smack to her face. "Kyo WILL listen t me and he WILL stand outside, where that monster belongs, because i ORDERED HIM TO! YOU WILL NOT do ANYTHING otherwise? Do you understand me Miss Honda??" Akito was screaming at this point. Beads of sweat were forming on his upper lip, and his skin had taken on a paler color. Tohru continued sobbing, curled up in a little ball on the floor. Satisfied for now, or making an early retreat before the rest of the boys came home, Akito dug his heel into the small of her back. "If Kyo and Yuki are not at the Sohma House for New Years, you will suffer much, much more than you did today." Noticing the footmark that he left on her new coat that was also now stained with blood seemed to have cheered Akito immensly. "Have a good night, Miss Torhu Honda." Akito said softly, and exited the door. Tohru lay there, a bloody, weeping mess, praying for Shigure and the others to find her soon.
