Summary[]
Kyo is enrolled at the same school as Tohru and Yuki. Attempting to prevent a confrontation, Kyo is accidentally transformed into his cat form and reacts with anger to Tohru.
Plot[]
Tohru is tending to housework and preparing dinner having taken up residence in the Sohma household. Along with Yuki they wonder where Shigure and Kyo went. They return back, with Kyo in a foul mood to the point where he will not eat dinner. It transpires that Kyo will be going to the same school as Tohru.
Students are eager to know more about Kyo as a new student there and ask Yuki for details. Arisa and Saki also comment before they see Kyo physically restrain a girl who had taken hold of his arm.
Yuki confronts him on his behaviour, Kyo is worried about the girls at the school that could cause them to transform.
Vowing to defeat him and become one of the twelve zodiacs, Kyo advances on Yuki. Tohru intercedes and turns him into his cat form by way of hugging Kyo.
Certain that he now hates her, Tohru hastily leaves. Alone with Yuki, Kyo has decided he does not want it to be year of the dog, but year of the cat.
Thinking back to the story of the banquet, Tohru is found by Arisa and Saki who remind her that class is starting before Yuki can speak to her.
Back at home Kyo shares with Shigure his desire to leave. Arriving back, Yuki intends to pick Tohru up from work to walk her home.
Walking back Tohru is contemplating the state of Kyo before being reassured by the memory of her mothers words. Perturbed she swings her bag into none other than Kyo mistaking him for a stranger. He is not bothered and it dawns on Tohru that he may be trying to apologize to her in his own way. Tohru declares she has always liked the cat of the twelve zodiacs and by extension Kyo himself.
Arriving home she feels they have made up.
