Two chapters in one day 0.0 This is because I didn't like the last chapter that much, and didn't think anyone else would either. Meh. Please review. I'll give you a cookie -

Disclaimer: I do not own Furuba and FFVII. And be happy that I don't, otherwise the next FF game to come out would be all about different ways to torture Reno, fun fun:D

Chapter Four: Could It Be Love?

Kagura stood there for a moment, letting the hot water peacefully wash over her skin. Her mind was filled with fantasies of Kyo, causing her to smile happily to herself.

"Ah, Kyo-kun," she sighed aloud. She picked up the soap.

The hair on the back of her neck rose as the bathroom door opened. Sliding the door shut behind him, Reno walked across the room, towards the sink. He looked at the toothbrushes for a moment, and then chose one. Kagura's toothbrush.

Kagura's mouth gaped open and she dropped the soap. And then all hell broke loose. "You Baka! Can't you see I'm in the middle of having a shower?! Get out now!"

Reno turned around, the toothbrush sticking out of his mouth. "Oh." He then turned back to the sink and continued to brush his teeth.

"Get out of the room, you jerk! I'm in the middle of something! Get out! Get out! Get ou…"

Reno turned back around to face her. "You know, if you didn't want people coming in, you should have put a lock on the do…"

"GAH! WILL YOU STOP LOOKING AT ME?! I'M NOT WEARING ANYTHING!"

Reno grinned. "I noticed."

Kagura continued to rant, getting out of the shower. "… and this isn't even my house! It's not up to me whether there's a lock on the door or not!" She whipped a towel around her, and then came at Reno, murder written all over her face.

On her way, she slipped on the soap, causing her to fall forward with a scream.

Reno quickly stepped forward and put his hands out, catching her under her arms so that she wouldn't fall. Kagura leant there for a few minutes, supported up by Reno's arms, shivering. Finally, Reno broke the silence.

"Kagura?"

"What?"

"Your towel's fallen off."

Kagura shrieked and tried to stand up. Reno helped her, causing himself to become very close to the inóshishì. There was a loud noise and a puff of smoke. Kagura, in her boar-form, sat on the ground, fuming.

"You're the boar, then," Reno pointed out.

"Yeh, I noticed."

"Hey," Reno smiled, going to pick her up. "It's not that bad. There's nothing wrong with being a pig…"

"Don't touch me!" growled Kagura, backing away.

Reno sighed and headed to the door. "Suit yourself." He disappeared.

Kagura stood there, grunting angrily. That was it? No sorry? Just, 'suit yourself'? Did Reno even realise he had upset her? Probably not, that arrogant bastard. There was another cloud of smoke and Kagura was back to her normal self. She continued to sit on the tiles, listening to the water in the shower she hadn't turned off. If only Kyo had been there to stop that red-headed freak from touching her. Ah, Kyo, he would have saved her. And yet something else was tugging at her heart. She wasn't sure what it was, since it was so small, but it was irritating.

The door opened a fraction and Reno peeked his head into the room. "Hey, um, I left my toothbrush in the room…"

"GET OUT!"

screen-wipe with the words 'Fruits Basket' Ka-ching!

The evidence had led her to the junk yard. Elena studied the ground knowingly, looking for signs of recent interruption. The dirt had defiantly been upturned lately, but then it was always difficult to tell in a junk yard.

She stood up and looked around. The area was mostly made up of useless bits of machinery. Included among the rubble were several of Hojo's failed inventions. A buzzard circled the scene and Elena visibly shuddered. What if she found Reno in here, lying dead? He had quite a few enemies, after all. Heck, they all did. But it was their job.

Elena followed the faint trail, weaving around bits of steel. She stopped suddenly when she noticed something that widely contrasted from the hard edges of metal around her. "Oh no."

Elena ran up to the object. A blue piece of material was stuck to a pointy piece of metal. The blade-like edge was covered in dry blood. "Reno…" Elena whispered to herself, and then noticed the square platform behind the material. She immediately recognised the small logo sitting in the middle of the object. Shin-Ra. It was undoubtedly one of Hojo's broken experiments.

Crouching down, she waved her hand over the top of the platform. The whole square began to hum and turn a faint blue. "Oh, hell, Reno. What have you got yourself into this time?" Elena stood up and took a deep breathe. Closing her eyes, she stepped onto the platform. All at once, there was a feel of rush and urgency. Her body felt like it was tearing itself apart.

The whole thing lasted only a second and Elena cried out and kneeled to the ground. She opened her eyes and looked around. She defiantly wasn't in Midgar anymore. It had been a teleporter. Standing up, she frowned. "Hmm… they obviously didn't test it very well if they thought it was broken."

She looked all around her, as if expecting Reno to be standing there. Of course, he was no where in sight. The best thing to do was put herself in his shoes. If she were Reno, where would she be? The answer was obvious, and Elena immediately set out to find it.

Reno sneaked about the house, looking in all the rooms but being careful not to be seen. Most of the people in the house would probably be angry about what he was about to do, after all.

At last, Reno spotted Tohru in her room, reading a book. With expert skills, he managed to stand right beside her without being seen.

"Tohru."

"Aaahhh!" Tohru almost jumped 10 feet into the air. She turned to see Reno. "Oh, hey there. I thought you were resting."

Reno put on his most innocent smile. "Yes, of course I was. Tohru, I need to ask you a favour. It's really, really important."
