Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket. . .OKAY I SAID IT CAN YOU MAKE THE
BUNNY DANCE NOW?! Whoo! Go Momiji!
A/N: Alright, this is my first FB fic. Anyways, this is basically my take on "What if there was more Juunishis than just the Sohmas?" And thank you to my friends, who so graciously allowed me to use their characters.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
~The canopy of the forest made it seem closer to night rather than early afternoon as it really was. A young silver-haired girl struggled and grunted as she tried to drag the pack she was carrying. She blinked her bright blue eyes, trying to see through the tears that had collected there. Soon she couldn't go on and collapsed to her knees, letting the tears fall freely. Her sobs bounced off the trees and echoed around her. Suddenly, she heard the cried of another voice. Standing up, she left her bag and followed the sound until she came upon another girl. She couldn't have been more than six, the same age as the silver-haired girl. She was sitting on a tree stump, wiping away the tears with her long orange and brown hair.
"Are you okay?" she called to the girl on the stump.
The girl jumped, startled by the voice and turned to look at the silver-haired girl. "I'm fine," she replied though her sniffling and turned her eyes back down to the ground.
"Are you lost?" the silver-haired girl tried again. "Did you run away from home like me?"
The girl on the stump looked up sadly. "I don't have a home to run away from anymore."
"Come on," the silver-haired girl ordered, holding out her hand. "You can stay with me."
The girl on the stump took her hand, and they walked out of the forest together.~
~*~*~*~*
~The hallway was dark as the six males made their way down it. Yuki looked around. Why were all the windows covered up?
"Yuki-kun, why do you think Seiko wants to see us?" Shigure asked, walking at Yuki's side.
Yuki shook his head. "I don't know, Shigure." He looked at the others. Kyou walked with his arms folded to his chest behind them. Momiji clung to Hatori in front of them. Haru was last, walking with his eyes on the floor and his hands in the pockets of his jacket.
"Things sure have been different since Akito died and Seiko took over," Shigure said trying to break the silence, but sighed seeing that no one was going to reply.
Hatori stopped at the door and turned to look at the other. He knocked, and a sound from inside granted them permission to enter.
The room wasn't much brighter than then hallway. The six males bowed to a shadowed figure in the corner.
"You called us, Seiko?" Hatori asked, straightening up.
Seiko looked up, gray eyes glinting slightly. "I have called you here, because you are the closest to Honda Tohru. I have observed and it is my opinion and your order that she must have her memory erased."
The uproar drowned out anything anyone tried to say. Haru and Kyou looked angry. Momiji was crying. Shigure and Hatori were trying to reason with Seiko, and Yuki. . . Yuki stared straight ahead, speechless, as the voices swirled around him until he couldn't hear them anymore.~
~*~*~*~*
Yuki sat up in his bed, panting. He looked at his clock. Five twenty- eight. He still had an our to sleep, but he couldn't. His mind was still racing. His dreams. He didn't understand the first one. Who were the silver- haired girl and the-orange and-brown-haired girl? What were they doing in the forest? He didn't understand any of it. Then his mind shifted to his second dream. They had tried so hard to convince Seiko otherwise. They had failed. Seiko had also forbidden them to even talk to her anymore. He sighed and fell back into his bed. Today was the first day of school, and he would need his strength.
~*~*~*~*
"Look, it's Yuki-kun! He's so Kawaii!"
"Hai, and Kyou-kun!"
"There's Momiji and Hatsuharu!"
Yuki looked down trying to avoid the stares from the girls. He finally made it to his class and sat down in the seat in front of Kyou. Suddenly, Tohru walked into the room with Hana and Uotani. Six months had passed since Tohru had had her memory erased. They had told Tohru, Hana, and Uotani that they had been in a car accident, and gotten amnesia. Then they told them that Tohru had been living with Uotani since her mother died and with that story, came the erasing of Uotani's family's memories being erased, and Tohru's family's memories being erased. Hatori had barely been able to take it all. He looked up at Tohru. It seem for a moment she was smiling at him, but then he realized she was smiling at her other friends.
~Please still be my friend.~ Yuki shook his head. He had promised Tohru that. Now he couldn't even keep that. He lowered his head, ashamed at himself.
"Toshi, honestly! That's not even funny!"
Yuki looked up to see two girls he had never seen before, a girl with silver hair and a girl with orange and brown hair. His jaw nearly dropped. Could they be the girls from his dream? Then he shook it off. It was simply a dream, and this was simply coincidence.
The teacher directed them to the empty seats next to Yuki and Kyou, the silver-haired girl sitting in front of the other.
"Hi, I'm Ishimi Taki.," the silver-haired girl said, turning towards Yuki and Kyou. "And This is Ishimi Toshi," she continued motioning to the girl behind her.
"So- Sohma Yuki." He replied, slightly bowing his head. "Sohma Kyou," he stated, with a glance behind him.
Kyou looked up at them with a questioning glance then turned his eyes back to his desk.
Taki smiled. "It's nice to meet you, Yuki-kun, Kyou-kun."
Toshi nodded slightly and turned to stare out the window.
"Nice to meet you too, Taki-chan, Toshi-chan." Yuki said, smiling too.
"Class!" the teacher began. "Our first project of the year will be to make a timeline of you're life, complete with pictures. Now the format will be. . ."
~*~*~*~*
After school, Yuki and Kyou were starting to go home, when they head a voice behind them. They turned to see Taki and Toshi running after them.
"Kyou-Kun! Yuki-kun! You live down this way?" Toshi asked.
Kyou nodded. "Hai, with a family relative."
Taki grinned. "What a coincidence! So do we!"
Yuki smiled at her. "Is your relative a hentai?"
Toshi laughed. "Of course! Baka inu, always acting so perverted."
Yuki noticed Taki give Toshi a warning glance. ~Inu? What does she mean?~ he wondered.
They walked together until they reached the Sohma house, and Taki and Toshi ran on to their own home.
~*~*~*~*
The next afternoon, Yuki was walking through the hallways. Stopping at his classroom, he walked in. Yuki looked over the projects that had already been started, scanning the pictures of his classmates when they were younger. His eyes stopped suddenly on the picture of a 6 year old, silver- haired girl. His heart almost stopped. Even though he knew, he looked up at the name, to see it was indeed Taki's picture. His eyes quickly scanned for Toshi's project, and saw a 6 year old Toshi, although, he noticed that there were no pictures from before she was six. He shook his head at the little orange and brown-haired girl.
Leaving the classroom in shock, Yuki continued his walk down the hallway. He couldn't believe it. Taki and Toshi were the girls from his dream. His thoughts were interrupted by a young boy being flung from a classroom into the lockers across the hall. Startled, he looked into the classroom. There, at Toshi's feet, visible through the now-dissipating smoke, surrounded by a pile of clothes, was a small, silver-haired mouse.

Okay that was the first chapter! Hope you enjoyed it! Please Read and Review! And come back for more!!! Thanks!
A/N: All right, here's the deal. I need to have a Juunishi family. Unfortunately, I don't have enough characters to make counterparts to everyone in the show. So instead of making up all the bios by myself, I'm opening up an opportunity to you loyal readers. (how loyal can this be with this being the first chapter?) If you're interested in being a character please e-mail me at amberleigh86@sbcglobal.net , and I will send you a character survey form. In the case of multiple people wanting the same Juunishi animal, I'm going to take the bio with the most detail, but I will e-mail the person who doesn't get it back, asking if they'd like to rework the bio a little for a different animal. Names are preferably Japanese- sounding at least, and genders are preferably, but not required to be opposite from the series. If you would like to be paired with a character, please let me know in your bio! Thanks!
Animals Taken (and Names)
Mouse- Ishimi Taki Cat- Ishimi Toshi Dog- Ishimi Kinagi Rabbit- Ishimi Kyoko Snake- Ishimi Hikaru Monkey- Ishimi Minoru Tiger- Ishimi Himo Dragon/Seahorse: Ishimi Michiko
Animals Left: Pig (preferably male) Sheep (preferably female, and I would actually like to pair sheep girl with himo-tiger, if character owner doesn't mind) Cow (preferably female, might want to go with Haru?)
A/N: Alright, this is my first FB fic. Anyways, this is basically my take on "What if there was more Juunishis than just the Sohmas?" And thank you to my friends, who so graciously allowed me to use their characters.
