With eyes closed tightly, I march so blindly...
Tohru Honda marched onward to see why the principal needed to see her. When she reached his office, he told her that her mother had just been in a car accident. She did not die luckily, but she had broken both her legs and had some cuts over the rest of her body. She would need to use a wheelchair for six weeks to recover completely.
Tohru and her two best friends, Arisa Uotani and Saki Hanajima, then got a taxi and traveled to the hospital to see her mother. Once there, they got into an elevator and traveled up to the second floor and room 226, the room in which Tohru's mother was in. She had stabilized in the time it had taken them to come to the hospital, and she was already bandaged up and looking well. She told them to get chairs and sit down.
Once they all did, she began her story...
The few moments after the wreck and before she passed out, a young man with orange hair had come to the driver's side of her door and asked if she needed help. She had asked him to call for an ambulance and he did on his cellphone. Before she passed out, she got a good look at him and asked his name. He said it was Kyou, but she never got to hear the last name before she passed out.
"Do you know anyone named Kyou at your school, Tohru?" she asked after telling her story.
"No, mom, but... if he looked our age, he should be there... maybe he's new to town?" she asked inquiringly.
"Maybe, but he had the brightest orange hair. He'll be easy to recognize once he does come to your school. Which will be next year, right? Because this year is almost over and he won't be able to get in this year."
"We'll be on the lookout for him, mom! Right?" she asked, turning to her two friends.
"Right, Ms. Honda..." Hana-chan replied sullenly.
"Yeah, Kyoko! We sure will! He'll be so easy to recognize next year!" Arisa exclaimed, pumping her fists into the air.
"My, my.. this excited already? I'm sure you'll adore him, he sure looked cute from my perspective. I would approve if you ever started dating him Tohru.." Kyoko said slyly, rubbing her daughter's hair playfully.

THREE MONTHS LATER.
Kyoko had long been out of her wheelchair and had now applied for role of nurse to the Sohma Estate, beside Mr. Hatori Sohma. He accepted politely, and she had been his apprentice for a week now, helping him bandage up sick and hurt people.
One day though, they had bumped into each other while crossing a hallway and he had immediately transformed into a seahorse. Kyoko screamed for a few seconds, while picking him up and putting him a bathtub with water in it. She laid his clothes down beside the tub and walked out of the room and paced around nervously, waiting for him to come out.
Once he did, it was a flurry of apologies and then Hatori excused himself for a few minutes. He discussed the matter of Kyoko learning of the zodiac curse with Akito-sama, and she told him to not erase the woman's memories, not just yet. She could 'come in handy' as she had putten it.
So, Hatori explained everything to her about the zodiacs and everything, and... unluckily, he slipped out about the "scum" of the zodiac. Those who were not of the original thirteen, including the Cat. They were not affected by the hugging method of transformation, but they became sick very easily, like Akito, and transformed more often, which resulted in many more memories being suppressed.
Like Tohru, Kyoko wanted to free the zodiacs from the curse, all of them, especially the so-called "scum". She wanted to free them.. or help them in some way.
But... is it too late for resolution with the Sohma Estate, or has the zodiac's fate already been chosen by the God, Akito?
Only Time Will Tell...
