Chapter 1 Who is Casi?
Casi walked slowly toward the Soma house her left arm was broken and bleeding and the walk had been long. I'm almost there she thought to
herself. Kyo, Yuki, Shigure, and Tohru were sitting on their porch staring up at the light blue sky. "I wonder if they'll accept me out of the blue like
this." Casi whispered to herself. "Huh" Kyo said. "Do you know her Tohru, Yuki, Shigure?" Kyo whispered. They all replied in a whisper "No." "We don't
accept wanderers" Kyo yelled. Casi looked down at her feet they already did not accept her. "I knew it." She said to herself as a tear rolled
down her face.
"Huh" Tohru, Yuki, Kyo, and Shigure said all at once. They slowly stepped one foot in front of the other over to Casi. "Why are you here?" Yuki asked
wipeing the tear off of Casi's face. She looked up surprised at the sudden kindness. "I am Casi Soma, a distant relative of the Soma family, and a part
of the Jyunishi." Casi said happily. "Casi?" "I did not know their was a Casi in our family." Yuki said surpised. Casi smiled happily. "Like I
said earlier i'm a distant relative I don't go to any of the events of our family,so most people in the Sohma family don't even know i exist ." Casi
explained.
"Ah a relative." Shigure said as he came up and hugged Casi.(Poof) Casi turned into a horse with her front left leg curled and bleeding.
Everyone looked at her with disbelief. "You did not give me time to explain, I am different from you as I only turn into an animal when I
am hugged by a member of the Sohma family..." Casi was cut off by Yuki. "Where did you get such a wound?" Casi looked down with
depression and tears filling her eyes. "I fought Akito." Casi paused for a moment. Everyone stared at her in disbelief.
Flashback 2 Days: "No one knows or cares about you so maybe I should just kill you." Akito said picking a petal off of a rose. "If I beat you in a fist
fight than you must let me live. He grabbed Casi's hair and threw her to the ground. She retorted by kicking him in the side. Than he grabbed Casi's
arm and bent it backwards until it snapped and blood began to pour out of it. Afterwards Casi knocked him unconciouswith her right arm, and ran
crying from the seen into the forest. (End of Flashback)
"I don't believe that a girl could fight Akito let alone beat him ." Kyo said with disbelief. "How do we know she's telling the truth we should make her
leave." Kyo whispered. "Well I guess I could always return to live with Akito, because my parents died four years
ago." "Let her stay please Yuki." Tohru said pleadingly. There was a short pause. "Excuse me but I'll be back in a moment Casi half
walked half ran behind their house because she knew she was about to change back into a person and she did not want to tell them
all of her secrets all at once dark or not. Then after she became a person again Casi walked from behind the house to meet them again. "I'm sorry,
but I had to do something." Casi said nervously hoping they wouldn't be suspicious.
"We have all consented and you can stay here." Yuki said with a smile. Casi paused and smiled. "Arigato(Thank you), I am honored to stay with
memebers of my own family." "Uh, ug" Casi began to shake as the searing pain in her arm hit her and a tear rolled down her face. "Casi?
Casi...are you okay." Tohru asked. "Not really, I can bear the pain of my arm when I am a horse, but its more painful when Im human." Casi gripped
her left arm trying to suppress the pain of her improperly wrapped arm.
Casi walked behind Tohru into the house followed by Yuki, Kyo, and Shigure. "I still don't believe she could even scathe Akito; plus how can
she be one of us if whenever someone not from our family hugs us we become animals, but whenever one of us hugs her she
becomes an animal?" Kyo whispered almost silently to Shigure. "Your a judgemental one aren't you Kyo?" Casi hissed half angrily.
Yuki looked at Kyo angrily. "If your going to say something hurtful about someone atleast wait until the're not right behind you, baka
necko "(idiot cat). Kyo just mumbled to himself than angrily walked away. Shigure wrapped Casi's arm snuggly in a cast. "Im sorry that I made
you transform, but to have such a pritty girl in our family..." Casi gently slapped Shigure on the cheek.
"Your sweet Shigure, but you should find another hobby that doesn't involve stalking teenage girls." Casi said mildly sharp. "I'll take
that into consideration" Shigure said holding his cheek. Tohru showed her to a room."I hope you don't mind, but your staying in my
room, and you can have the bed if you want." Tohru said happily. "No, I don't mind staying with you Tohru, but if you don't mind i'd like to sleep on the
floor." Casi said with a gentle tone. Tohru smiled than said: "I'm so glad you said that,but you don't have to sleep on the floor ." Then they both
walked downstairs.
Tohru prepared a rice and leek soup dinner and we all sat around the table. "So Casi what is your occupation?" Shigure asked. "Well, truthfully I don't
have one since I've lived alone in a dark room in the Sohma main house and have focused all my time into staying hidden and taking care of my home."
Shigure laughed. " Ha,ha, ha, your just as useless as Kyo. "Casis' eyes glowed with flames of hatrid in them, and she stood up then grabbed Shigrue's
collar wrinkling it and lifting Shigure off of the ground."Don't you ever underestimate me or put me down on Kyo's level."
Casi said as she let go of Shigure's collar. Then Kyo stood up and faced Casi with anger blazing in his eyes. "I could beat you any day"
Kyo yelled as he came running towards Casi. Casi waited until Kyo was close than she took her right leg and kicked to the left against
Kyo's legs and he was knocked over like a turtle unable to get up. Casi stepped out of the way than stared down at Kyo as he started to get up. "If I
can fight Akito than your childsplay." Casi said as she quickly went back to her spot at the table while Shigure, and Yuki stared at her
speechless. " Dinners ready." Tohru said with her normal unbreaking joy as she came out of the kitchen with her hands full. As they ate dinner Yuki
stared at Casi speachless. "Yuki are you okay do you feel sick?" Tohru asked worriedly. Yuki smiled " No im fine just a little shook up thats all, because
Casi..." Shigure cut Yuki off. "Because she has such an interesting life." Yuki and Shigure relaxed. "Really?" Tohru asked excitedly.
"Well its not that interesting, but I'll tell you anyway." " I lost my parents when I was 13, Akito said that they died in a car
accident, and they may be true but I know he killed them somehow I know he caused it; after that he took me in secretly and raised me until now."
(Flashback 5 days before attacking Casi); "You disobeyed me, and never apologized your growing apart from me, you were loyal once. Your worthless
now I hate you. Casi's eyes felt like they would burst, and cried herself to sleep that night.(End of flashback)
"Huh!" "Thats impossible Akito would never keep a secret from me." Shigure said accusingly. "Do you not believe me Shigure-
san." Casi said slightly irritated. Either he did keep the secret or your not very observant Casi thought to herself. Their was some
silence before Casi spoke again. "If you would excuse me, I would like to go to my room." Casi stood up than swiftly walked to her
room.
(P.C. perspective change); Shigure, don't you think it was rude of you to accuse Casi of lying to us." Said Yuki. "Even I wouldn't do
something that stupid." Retorted Kyo. Shigure looked at them with embarassment and blushed. "Yea, I guess I was a little rude, but I cannot go up
and knock on her door, she would not open it for me." "You've got a point Shigure." Yuki replied. "Kyo why don't you do it." Shigure
insisted. "Why me why can't that darn rat do it." "Please, Kyo!" Asked Tohru. Kyo's attitude lightened.
"Okay, but only this once. Kyo ran up the stairs. When he reached Tohru's room he knocked "Yo", but no one answered so he
shoved the door open, and spotted a blue cat laying on Tohru's bed looking own at the floor with its blue eyes full of despair. . "What the..." Kyo
picked the cat up by the scruff, and carried it downstairs. "Casi ditched she's gone, but I found this cat on Tohru's bed." Kyo said as he threw the cat
out the door carelessly." "Could you have been gentler Kyo?" Tohru asked. "Why, its just a cat?" Kyo asked. "I hope she'll be back soon." Tohru said
worriedly. "Don't worry Tohru we will gosearch for her if in a hour if she dosen't come back before than." Yuki said assuringly. "Funny I never heard her
leave." Shigure said suspiciously. "I would be suspicious of that cat but Casi-san is a horse." Yuki replied.
(S.B switch back perspective): Casi walked quickly to the front door, and opened it. "Sorry if I frightened you, I just needed some fresh
air." "I'm so relieved that your safe." Replied Tohru. Casi walked over to Tohru than bent down and hugged her as Tohru was sitting at
table. " Your so considerate Tohru." Tohru smiled. " About before Casi I'm sorry that I accused you of lying. Shigure said with his hand
behind his head." Casi just smiled than said; "Its okay I forgive you." Casi and Tohru walked up to bed, and went to sleep, well Tohru
did anyway; Casi thought as she layed sprawled out on the floor.
"I have to be careful otherwise they'll know all of my secrets some of them are dark, and I don't want Tohru to have to hear them Casi thought. Casi
drifted off to sleep with this thought. In the morning Tohru woke Casi and they headed down together for breakfast. " Oh, I forgot to tell you I
transferred to your school." Casi said while eating breakfast. "What you couldn't be a first year student!" Shigure said surprised and confused. "Well
you're right I'm not a first year student, I will be in Tohru's class." Casi explained
