This is basicly the same story but I added my OC, Phoenix. Rated t for saftly. I'm not sure how the later chapters will turn out. I may change the rating. .

Phoenix woke up with a small jump. She glanced at he alarm clock and flew out of bed. She was going to be late for school!

She quickly changed into her stupid school uniform and ran downstairs, brushing her long black hair on the way down.

"Why didn't you wake me up!" she yelled at Shigure.

"Calm down Phoenix. I don't feel like dealing with a tiger this morning," Shigure said.

Phoenix was possessed by the tiger spirit of the Chinese zodiac. There were 14 others in the Sohma family possessed by vengeful spirits. There we're two tigers, Phoenix and Kisa. Each generation, one sprit would split and two people would be that animal. The next generation, that spirit would rejoin, but another would split. The only spirit that couldn't split was the cat's. One of the people possessed by the slit spirit usually had more control over the spirit than the others. That person was Phoenix. Whenever she returned to her normal self after being a tiger, she would be wearing the clothes she had on before she transformed, unlike the others, who were naked.

Phoenix grabbed one shoe and slipped it on, then grabbed the other and started hopping towards the door while trying to put her other shoe on. Then she grabbed her bag and took of running. The tiger in her made her a fast runner. She was at her school in minutes. She ran down the halls and skidded into her classroom just before the bell rang.

She stalked over t Yuki. "Why didn't you wake me up!?" she demanded.

"Huh? Oh, yea, I forgot, sorry. Tohru Honda came over to our house this morning and we walked to school together.

"Tohru was at out house?"

"Yea. I think she stumbled upon it by accident."

After school, Phoenix ran to catch up with Yuki and Tohru on their way home.

"Thanks for waiting," she said through clenched teeth,

"Sorry," Yuki said.

Phoenix turned to Tohru. "I'm Phoenix Sohma. I live with Yuki and Shigure. You're Tohru Honda, right"

Tohru nodded excitedly. "It's so nice to meet you!"

Phoenix smiled. "Well, I'm going to run ahead. I have a lot of homework today." Yuki nodded and Phoenix took off.

Yuki and Shigure went out to eat that night but Phoenix stayed home. When they got back, they had Tohru.

"So, you've been living in a tent because you're grandfather's house is being remodeled?" Phoenix asked. Tohru nodded.

"You know, this hill is Sohma property. We haven't sold it or rented it out," Yuki stated.

"Well, could you rent me a camping space? I'll leave as soon as the remodeling is done. I don't have much money, but I can pay," Tohru said.

"That place is dangerous. The cliff wall is unstable and some stranger might wander by. Besides, where will you plug in you curling iron?" Shigure joked. Phoenix hit him in the back of the head.

" I don't mind the bugs, and I can take care of myself. Please? I'm…..begging……you….." Tohru said falling to the ground.

"You have a fever," Yuki said after feeling her forehead.

"You don't look so good. I'll get you some ice," Phoenix said. She went into the kitchen. Garbage bags were stacked to the ceiling.

"You're not getting any ice."

Then there was a long howl and Shigure perked up. "There's been a landslide," he said.

"How do you know that?" Tohru asked.

"Call it animal instinct."

"Stop messing around. Where was the landslide?" Yuki demanded.

"Always so solemn," Shigure said, sighing.

"W-What if it was near my tent?!" Tohru asked, flipping out.

": There's the spirit, "Shigure said.

"Just tell us where the damn landslide was," Phoenix said.

Shigure led everyone to the location of the landslide. It was the same place Tohru's tent had been.

"Oh No! Mom!" Tohru yelled. She started digging the dirt away.

"Calm down Tohru, you're not well," Yuki told her.

"But I have to save my mom! My mom's picture was in that tent!"

"Come on, we'll come back when it's light out," Shigure said.

Phoenix and Yuki tried to get through the mountain of trash to get some ice for Tohru.

"You think she'll be OK?" Yuki asked.

"Yea, I'm sure she will," Phoenix answered. She pushed aside some trash bags and finally reached the refrigerator. She got some ice and wrapped it in a rag. She handed it to Yuki.

"I'm going to bed," she said. Then she went upstairs, crawled into bed, and fell asleep.

When Phoenix came downstairs the next morning, Shigure was sitting at the kitchen table. "What do you think about Tohru living with us?" he asked.

"Sound great. I'm tired of being stuck with you two idiots. But are you sure Akito would allow it?

"Since when have you listened to what Akito says? Phoenix shot him a harsh look/ then there was a loud crash upstairs.

Phoenix ran to the spare room. "I heard a loud crash, is Kyo back?" she asked. Then she saw Tohru holding an orange cat.

"Oh great."

"Can't we do something about that idiot?" Yuki complained.
