Why hello there, all you Fruits Basket fans.
I am Sunset-Guardian, and I will be your host.
Kyo is spelled that way because that's how it's supposed to be spelled.
Kyo: Sunset does not own-
Sunset: Come on, Kyo! Put some life into it!
Kyo: Sunset doesn't own Fruits Basket or me, ya got that?!?
Sunset: Thank you, Kyo. ^-^ Oh, and I do own Sky and her brother Drake. Also, Mr. Vence.

Like usual, everyone in the office was mumbling to themselves while moving about. You just wanted to get your next assignment. Being a reporter for the newspaper isn't a bad job. It's actually quite interesting. Just last week, there was a rumor that old miss Kelain was actually a detective in disguise. It turned out that the old lady wasn't who she said she was, but no, she wasn't a detective. She was just a retired police officer. Just a couple days ago, it was said that the mafia moved into town. Once again, just rumor. It turned out that someone overheard a person talking about their geese acting like they're part of the mafia. The persons geese were actually drowning the persons chickens. That, was one weird case.
Just when you were about to doze off while thinking about this weeks assignments, you were tapped on the shoulder. You looked over to who tapped you, and saw your brother. "What is it Drake?" He was usually leaving to get a soda or something, having you look after the camera. That must be what he's doing now.
He didn't respond in a serious tone, like usual, and he didn't respond in a goofy tone. He responded in his usual, bored, casual tone. "The boss wants to see you in his office." Great. You must be getting a day off. Or, getting fired. Or, maybe, another rumor chasing job.
You nodded, got up and stretched, then headed to the office. You walked right in instead of knocking. The boss, Mr. Vence, hated it when people didn't knock. But you walked in without knocking all the time, and you were too good to fire, so he got used to it. Only you, are allowed to just walk in. "Yeah boss?"
Mr. Vence looked at you, sighed, then put down a folder he was looking over. "I've got a job for you. You have to go to Shigure Sohma's place and see what's up. You wont need to bring Drake with you. There's no need for footage this time. Just be sure to bring a notebook." You nod to him, then leave the office. Yippee. A job. That sounds really dull.

Finding this guys address wasn't easy. You were standing in front of his house right now, after looking through a few different phone books. Yes, you used phone books to get to his house. You were too bored to use the computer. "Nice place." You looked around the area, and saw that it was really a great place to live. Wonder if he's selling this place any time soon. You got to the back of the house and heard a crash from inside. You go back to the front of the house, and walk right in the front door.
It was a pretty neat place. Except for the broken table in the next room. Through the open door, you could see a guy with orange hair jump up from the broken table and kick at something, or someone. You walked right over to the open door, and see the guy with orange hair trying to kick, and punch, a guy with purple hair. There was also a guy with black hair in the room. He was leaning back against the wall watching the two other guys fight. The guy with purple hair said something about a stupid cat. Hm. Then the guy with orange hair yelled out 'damn rat!' to the purple haired guy. So far, you only know the guy leaning against the wall. That guys name is Shigure. The other two, you're not so sure right now.
When you were about to speak up, you heard a girls voice coming toward the room. Just then, a girl with brown hair rushed in and grabbed the guy with orange hair, trying to pull him back from the guy with purple hair. The girl said, "be careful, Kyo!" Kyo. That must be the guy with orange hair. Then Kyo ended up yelling. "Let me go Tohru!" Hm. That's the girls name alright. Then Shigure spoke up. "Yuki, you really must take these fights outside. I can't keep replacing everything you break you know." So Yuki is the last guys name. Alright, you can go with this.
Opening your notebook, you wrote in the peoples name's who you believe are living in the house. Which would be Shigure, Kyo, Yuki, and Tohru. When you look up, you see Kyo trip and fall back onto Tohru. You were about to run over to see if Tohru was alright, but then you saw a cloud of smoke. Weird. When the smoke cleared, you saw an orange cat on Tohru's stomach. Along with Kyo's clothes. Okay, so Kyo's a cat. You walk out with no care at all of being seen, and bend down to get a closer look at the orange cat. Presumably, Kyo. When you did that, you felt the whole room tense up. Then the cat, Kyo, meowed. "So, you turn into a cat." You smiled at your deduction, and you saw him tense up completely. You stood up again and hugged Yuki, thinking that he might turn into another cat. There was a poof of smoke. But when the smoke cleared, you were hugging a mouse. A cute little white mouse. You set him down, then walk over to Shigure before he could move, and hugged him. There was another poof of smoke. Just what will he be? When the smoke cleared, there was a black dog there. "Cool. This is some good stuff to publish. You'll see my story in tomorrow's paper."
Without any further talking, you began to walk away, taking out your notebook. You wrote in it that Shigure is a dog, Kyo is a cat, and Yuki is a mouse. They were about to come after you, but you were already gone.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
You reached your office and walked in. You went directly to Mr. Vence and handed him your notebook. He took it, and read all the notes that you put. "So you're saying that Shigure turns into a dog?" You nod. "And this Kyo fellow turns into a cat?" You nod again. "And this other fellow, Yuki, turns into a mouse...?" You nod once more. "Get back out there and give me the real story. Not some fake child story."
Reluctantly, you nod. Then you walk out of his office and go to your computer. You type up the story and save it. The story you typed up was going to be put into the newspaper the very next day. You then go back to Shigure's house. They were all leaving somewhere, so you decided to follow them. You followed them all the way to the Sohma estate, then took out your cell phone. "Bro, come to the Sohma estate ASAP. I need footage of this." Instead of letting Drake speak, you hang up and follow them inside.
They walked into a room, and you pressed your ear up against the door. You wanted to hear everything they had to say in there. They haven't even started talking yet when you were tapped on the shoulder. Uh-oh. You looked up to see...
