Chapter 1: The New Life
*Amayas POV*
Inari and I just moved to our new house, that I inherited from my grandmother. The house was small, but it was close to Inari's school and it was close to my new job. I was excited to start work at a publishing office. It had always been my dream job since I was a little girl.
"Amaya, I think I've got the last box out of the truck." Inari says, as she carried the box in and sets it down by the living room.
"Great, Now we can start unpacking, which room do you want Inari?" I said as I walked towards the doors in the small hallway. "do you want the room on the right or left, they look the same to me. Just pick whichever you want." I said with a smile.
"I will take the one on the right, it's purple." Inari said as she started to carry her boxes to her new room. Inari had been like a little sister to me, we grew up together. Her family was killed when she was only five years old, so my family took her in and care for her. I ended up being protective of her.
"Hey you have one more box." The guy from the moving truck said as he brought in the box.
"Oh shit that's mine." Inari yelled as she ran toward him to grab the box. Her foot got caught under the carpet and she tripped. I ran to catch her but the moving guy caught her first.
And that's when it happened.
*poof*
The guy from the moving truck laid down on the ground and on top of him was Inaris clothes and a red fox.
The red fox was Inari. She quickly ran away.
"What happened? Where did the girl go?" He asked and I had to jump to the rescue.
"Oh she ran back into her room. She saw a spider and she bolted." I said as I laughed nervously.
"But didn't I just see a fox run by?"
"Oh no you must have just seen our cat. She's really skittish around people." I tried to cover her up. For as long as me and Inari could remember whenever we are hugged by the opposite sex we turn into animals. She a fox and me a wolf. The moving truck guy just shrugged his shoulders and he gave me something to sign and he left. I followed him and closed the door and I let out a sigh.
"Inari he's gone!" I yelled and she walked out still in her fox form. She was a little red fox which was fitting considering her name and her unnatural fiery red hair.
"Dammit that was close.." She breathed.
"Here are your clothes" I handed her shirt and shorts back to her, she opened her mouth and carried it to her room. We always stay close to each other cause this almost always happens. No one except my family knows about our curse as we call it. Because that's what it was. A terrible curse that kept us from living comfortable lives.
Inari and I just finished unpack all of our stuff and put away everything.
I walked over to her room to see what she was up to.
*knock, knock Inaris POV*
"Inari are you in there?" Amaya gently said through my door.
"Yeah just give me a minute!" I yelled as I finished putting my clothes back on. I finally transformed back and I opened the door.
"That was so close." I breathed.
"Yes, it was very close... you need to be more careful, especially at school tomorrow. You know I won't be there to rescue you if you transform. You sure you don't want to go to an all-girls college?" Amaya said as she walked into the room and sat on my bed. She's always been like a sister to me. She's always been protective of me. She and I share the same curse where we transform into animals. I turn into a fox and she turns into a wolf. Kind of ironic isn't it?
"Yes I'm sure. I can't stand going to all girl schools and I've heard all girl colleges are far worse." I said as I sat on the bed next to her. For the longest time we were both sent to All girl schools because of fear of what would happen because of our curse.
"And you're one to talk you're more clumsy than I am." I joked as I playfully punched her in the arm.
"I know I am clumsy, but I've managed to go 4 days without transforming..." She said proudly and i just rolled my eyes at her and smiled. Somethings never change.
"In all fairness I didn't see that mailman at all until I was already in my wolf form."She said
"Well that was the first time I transformed in a week!" I argued and stood up to look out the window. We were very careful about transforming but accidents happen.
"Have you heard about what author you will be working with at your new job?" I asked her. She was going to start her new job tomorrow as an editor for a local publisher.
"Yeah, I've heard rumors that he is a bit of a flirty guy and that he doesn't like to submit his work on time. I will make sure to keep him on his toes."She said as she continued to play with her hair.
"Oh kami watch him be an old pervert." I joked as I got my bag ready for my classes for the next day.
"Yea he probably will be an old pervert."She said as she laid down and continued playing with hair.
"Why did I choose to become a double major again and work at that cafe?" I said in frustration. Not only would I starting my classes at the local university but I would also be working at the maid cafe near my school.
"Because you love to work hard and do extremely well under pressure and you look adorable in that maid costume" She teased me. I hated to admit it but she was right.
"I might have to deal with my own perverts there but it's good money..." I said as I let out a sigh. I was taking a dual major in history and literature. I loved to write. Amaya and I always joked that she would be my publisher one day and work together for the rest of our lives.
"You will do fine, and plus I will stop by your work every day when I have a chance and chat, if any perv walks up to you I will transform into a wolf and bite them" She said as she winked at me.
"Yeah yeah I know you will." I said as I laid down on the bed next to Amaya.
"I wonder if there will be any cute guys at this college..." I mumbled. Not that i had any experience talking with them or anything I just liked to gawk at them if anything.
"Cute guys for you stare at and not touch? Let's not torture ourselves... I hate this curse sometimes." She said as She pulled her cellphone out. "Hmm looks like I have a meeting tomorrow morning with Mitchan, she used to be the editor for guy I will be working with , she said she would like to give me some heads up... gosh this is really starting to sound like he is a real creep."
"Yeah I know ugh. This curse really sucks..." I said as I thought about their curse. I let out a sigh. What was the point of thinking about it anymore? we couldn't change it. "Maybe he is take some pepper spray with you." I joked.
"I will I always have one in my purse at all times" She chuckled. "So how do you like this house?"
"It's nice. I'm just glad we aren't in the middle of the busy city anymore."
"Yea me too, I like that is quiet here, and everything is within walking distance. Do you want me to drive you to class tomorrow?" She asked as she sat up in my bed.
"No I think I'll walk, I'm curious to see everything that's in this area."
"Okay, sounds good... I am going to shower and go to bed now, it's getting late." She stood up and walked towards the door.
"Alright I think I am too. Transforming always takes all of my energy."
"Yeah I know goodnight Ina" She yawned and she closed the door.
"Night." I watched Amaya close the door and I fell back against my bed. I looked at my bedside table and I looked at the picture of me and my parents. I kissed the picture and I rolled over to fall asleep.
Meanwhile at the Sohma's house.
Shigure's POV
"Yuki is that you and Kyo going at it again, I swear the universe is conspiring to destroy my lovely house again" I said and I walked upstairs where Yuki and Kyo were fighting.
"WHY DOES EVERYTHING YOU SAY MAKE ME WANT TO BASH YOUR FACE IN!?" Kyo yelled at Yuki making a fist.
"You couldn't even do that if you tried you stupid cat." Yuki spat back at him completely done with fighting Kyo.
"I don't even know what they are fighting about this time Shigure." Tohru said as she let out a sigh.
"I don't even think they know what they are fighting for sweet Tohru" I said as I stepped closer to Tohru with my hands hovering over her. Yuki and Kyo shot a look at me and I backed away laughing nervously.
"I'm tired of this!" Kyo yelled as he jumped out the window.
"Wait Kyo!" Tohru yelled.
"Don't worry Ms. Honda the stupid cat will be back he always comes back." Yuki said as he left the room.
"Yuki next time you two start fighting, please take it outside. I don't know how much more this house can take of you two fighting, the main house won't pay for the repairs anymore. You might need to get a part time job if you want to fight in here" I said as I turned around heading towards the stairs.
"by the way Tohru, here's the grocery list"
"Oh okay thank you." Tohru said as she looked over the list.
"I think I'll head out after classes tomorrow on the way to that new maid cafe. Yuki do you want to come with me?" Tohru asked Yuki
"I would be delighted Ms. Honda." Yuki smiled.
*A few hours later*
I spent a few hours working on my novel, when a delicious scent of beef stew got my attention "oh sweet Tohru, her cooking is truly amazing" I got up and walked over to the kitchen. Kyo, Yuki and Tohru were sitting down about to eat, I sat across from Kyo. The usual glares were happening between Kyo and Yuki but I ignored it.
"Oh Shigure I didn't even have to call you down." Tohru said as she smiled.
"Oh my sweet Tohru, your cooking calls out to me there's no need to use words. Will you marry me, Sweet Tohru?" I laughed as I grabbed her and Yuki glare shifted towards me.
"you sick Bastard" Kyo yelled at me. Yuki and Kyo both simultaneously hit me over the head.
"Oh Shigure um!" Tohru yelled as she was worried for me. Oh Tohru the only one around here who seems to care for my well-being. I do know that Yuki and Kyo care to some extent but not enough as sweet and innocent Tohru.
"Don't worry about him Ms. Honda." Yuki spat.
"Well it's not like either of you have asked her." I said while I was rubbing my head. My statement, my very true statement, caused Tohru to blush and it seemed to make Kyo and Yuki even angrier but they didn't do anything once they saw the look on Tohru's face. We all began eating. Tohru was such a good cook.
"So you all start college tomorrow?" I asked. Kyo and Yuki decided to follow Tohru into college which was a simple university not far from the main house.
"Mmhhmm. I'm so excited I have tons of classes." Tohru said as she smiled.
"Well that's great Tohru, and Yuki Aya tells me you're taking a double major." Yuki glared at me when I mentioned his brother but he nodded.
"Yes one for History and the other Literature."
"What about you Kyo? What have you decided to major in?"
"Hell if I know. I chose some martial arts class and a few of the cooking classes but that's it."
"Oh little Kyo likes to cook?" I joked but it received a sharp glare from him and I laughed nervously.
"Well it seems this house will be quiet tomorrow. I have to go to my publisher's office to meet my new editor. My old one has decided to quit working with me. Such a tragedy really" I said changing the subject.
"Oh well what happened to your old editor Shigure?Is it possible she got a new job?" Tohru asked.
"Well um-" I was interrupted by Yuki and Kyo.
"She probably got tired of you, every time she came over to pick up your work you sent her on a goose chase. I am surprised she stayed for as long as she did" Kyo spat.
"She probably quit because you kept stressing her out and missing your deadlines" Yuki beat me before I could say a thing. I suppose he was right however. It was fun to see her flustered and I did it quite often. I wondered about this new editor I would be meeting.
"I feel bad for who will be taking her place." Yuki said and he took the last sip of the beef stew.
