The group had moved to Shigure's house, everyone sitting around the table in the main room, the males on one side of the table, and the females on the other. "I thought something was strange — the Sohma's own all the land in the area," Yuki informed the brunette across from him. Having to speak louder to be heard over the giggling male beside him. Shigure still laughing over the fact Tohru lives in a tent.
"Um, would you please let me live there for a little while? I'll leave as soon as the renovations are over. I... don't have much money, but I'll pay what I can. Please." Tohru clutched her hand tightly in her lap as she spoke, honey-coloured eyes glued to the table in front of her. Megumi leaned forward, laying her head on her crossed arms on the table, staring worriedly at the girl beside her.
Shigure, who finally calming down from his giggle fit, turned to the pleading girl, acting as if he hadn't been laughing at her moments before. "That's a dangerous spot. The soil is soft near the cliff, and there are pervs around. And a girl can't live in a tent for months, anyway."
Hearing the males words, Tohru jumped up, shocking the girl beside her, Megumi's head bouncing off her arms and into the air like she had been caught sleeping in school. Tohru loudly informed how she should be fine, not realizing the fright she gave Megumi.
"It's all right! I'm used to the slugs now! I promise I've got more than enough strength and willpower. So please...!" Although, it seemed that the sudden movement tired the girl out, her body wobbling back and forth before falling towards the ground. Megumi luckily catching her before she collided with the tatami mats. Tohru's back rested against Megumi's chest, Megumi keeping a shaky grip on the girl's upper arms so she wouldn't fall over. Tohru resting her head gently against the platinum blonde's collarbone.
Yuki rushed around the table towards his two classmates, moving Tohru's bangs out of the way to feel her burning forehead. Announcing that she did, indeed, have a fever. Shigure stood, claiming to go to get the girl some ice to ward off the burning fever the girl was experiencing. He threw open the doors to the kitchen, everyone getting hit with the horrid smell that wafted from the dirty room.
Everyone stared in horror at the disgusting room, freezing their movements as they gawked at the sight of the built-up trash. "Uh-oh, where would it be...?" Shigure's words drifted off towards the end of his sentence, head-turning to look around the dirty room for the ice would be.
"It's a Sea of Decay." Tohru flatly pointed out as she stared at the disastrous kitchen. Shigure, hearing her comparison, brought out his inner 'writer'. "Nice analogy!"
A loud howl stole Shigure's attention, the male pivoting to the direction the noise came from, listening as another howl broke through the air. "See, what did I tell you? Part of the cliff just crumbled." The male informed, resting his hand on his chin as he looked off.
