Cat of the Light

A Fruits Basket Fanfic

Azukie: Hey! This is my first fanfic, so I'm sorry if it's not up to par with some others you've written but I'll try my best! I've got a lot to live up to considering everything I've said on Neko's fanfics. Well, hope it's well liked…

Neko: Yeah, now I get to harp on you! The tables have turned!

Azukie: Shut Up Neko!

Kyo was walking through the woods and as he turned into the road he ran smack into a girl. Sure enough he poofed into his cat form.

Oh, crap. Kyo thought, finding himself as a cat. But he was surprised to find that the books and papers that the girl had been carrying were scattered about the road and a small black cat was sitting amongst them. She sneezed in a dainty, cat-like way, shook her head and began to pick up her papers. Kyo watched her, wondering how on earth it was possible for that girl to become a cat.

"Hey!" Kyo spoke first "how'd you change too? You aren't a Sohma!"

The black cat didn't say anything at first. But when all her papers were in order she turned to face him, her jeweled eyes flashed with anger. "You have some nerve!" she yelled, her ferocity surprising Kyo. "You bump into me, cause me to transform and get all my work strewn about the road and then start hassling me about not being a Sohma! How Dare You!" her claws came out and with a swat she had slashed open his cheek. Kyo staggered back and poofed into his human form. His hand went up to his cheek and placed it on the scratches. The black cat glowed and her transformation came, much smoother than Kyo's, and she gathered her clothes and put them back on. Kyo, suddenly aware he was naked, rushed to retrieve his clothes. When they were both dressed the girl picked up her belongings and dropped them in Kyo's lap.

"You can make it up to me by carrying these." She said in a matter-of-fact manner.

"So black cat, you got a name of what?" Kyo said as he picked up the load dropped in his lap.

"Azukie Miarra, and what would yours be tabby?"

"Kyo Sohma, and don't call me tabby."

Well then Kyo-chan follow me."

"Don't call me chan."

"Then what works? Kyo-rin? Kyo-kun?

"Jus Kyo."
