Egyptian Curse
Rainbow Haired Girl
Like the Sohma's in Japan there is a group of people in Egypt who suffer curses as well. They have the curses of the gods and goddesses of Egypt. For they had done something wrong to be cursed in such a way that they were no longer allowed to be hugged by the opposite sex unless they too had the same kind of curse that they had. Nefertiti Toma had enough. She knew that Isis Antar had broken her own curse and she was going to find the same way that Isis broke hers. But what will happen on her journey?

Chapter 1
The New Girl
Flashback
A violet haired woman with golden eyes looked at a girl around the age of fifteen with gray hair and golden green eyes. "I forbid you to go Nefertiti. You have no idea what the hell you are getting into. I wouldn't want my kitten to get hurt by someone who would think of you as some kind of freak." She said in a calm yet demanding voice.
Nefertiti looked at the woman, her golden green eyes held a fire that none of the others had held in a long time. "You let Isis go out on her own and she was sixteen when she did that. I have heard stories from the others."
"That may be true, but she disobeyed me and she did come back." she said jestering to the woman with brown hair and black eyes that was sitting there beside her.
"But she left the one the she loved. She left the man behind that helped her break her curse."
"That is enough Nefertiti." Said Aria, looking at the younger girl. "You know Miss Hatshepsut is ill."
"It's not fair that someone left. You think it is fair to only have her curse broken?" Nefertiti said in anger.
"Nefertiti I know you want the curse broken. We all do." Said Isis in a soothing voice. "I may have been the one who went against my leader, but it was for the best at the time."
"And you want to allow our leader to die from our curses as she suffers her own? I think not." Nefertiti said running out of the head house.
Present Day
She walked through town headed to the school where Tohru, Yuki, and Kyo were attending. She pulled down on the short skirt that she was wearing. She hated this skirt with a passion. "Why did allah did I sign up to go to this school. I've never been to a school in my whole life and now I am attending high school and school period for the very first time." She scolded herself as she walked down the side walk. She accidentally bumped into a brown haired blue eyed girl. "'Dhrā." (1)She said in Arabic.
The girl looked at her confused. "What did you say?"
Nefertiti looked at the girl. "Sorry." She said in Japanese. "I didn't mean to bump into you."
"You are new here aren't you?"
"Yes, I am."
"You are on your way to school correct?"
"Yes, I am."
"Good you can come with Yuki, Kyo, and me."
"Ok." Nefertiti said following Kyo, Yuki, and Tohru.
"I am Tohru Honda, this is Yuki Sohma, and his cousin Kyo Sohma. What's your name?"
"Nefertiti Toma." She said softly.
"Nice to meet you. Are you ready to start school?"
Nefertiti let out a sigh. "I am not so sure about that."
"Why would you say that?" Asked Yuki, looking over at the gray haired girl.
Nefertiti shook her head. "It will be the first time that I will be going to school."
Kyo glared at Nefertiti. "What the hell do you mean that it is your first time going to school?"
Nefertiti looked at him. "Look I wasn't as lucky as some are. My people thought it would have been better to know the old ways and not the new ways." She said seething in anger. "Besides... I don't really want to talk about where I come from." She said, looking away from the orange haired boy.
The four of them walked to the school in silence.
"Miss Honda," Started Yuki, "I will take Miss Toma to the office to get her schedule. You two can go on ahead of us. I will be right with you."
"Ok Yuki see you in class." Tohru said with a smile.
Yuki lead Nefertiti to the office to get her schedule. "So where are you from?"
"Egypt."
"Why didn't you want to tell Kyo something?"
"Kyo sounds like someone who gets into fights real easily. I wouldn't want to kick his ass in front of a girl and let alone his cousin." Nefertiti said, looking over at him.
Yuki just chuckled. "Well, I am sure that Kyo wouldn't get along with you real well."
Nefertiti chuckled. "So, this school... I know it is stupid for me to ask how is it like?"
"Well, this school is really good. If you need any help I am sure Tohru and I will be able to help you out."
Nefertiti smiled. "That will be so nice."
Yuki opened the door to the office. "Mrs. Yai I have a new student to pick up her schedule."
Mrs. Yai looked up from her paper work. "What's your name dear?"
"Nefertiti Toma."
"Miss Toma? Ok." She looked through her schedule and found Nefertiti's schedule. "Here you go." She said, handing it to her. "Looks like you and Mr. Sohma have the same class. Yuki I am sure that you can get her to class."
"Yes, Mrs. Yai."
Flash Forward
"Class today we have a new student. Please be nice to her." Said the teacher.
Yuki came in with Nefertiti behind him.
The girls in the classroom that were part of the Yuki Sohma fan club was not happy seeing a girl following Yuki into the classroom. Yuki was theirs and shouldn't be anyone else.
"Ah I see you met her already Yuki. Please take your seat."
Yuki bowed his head and went to his seat.
"Now class I would like you to meet Miss Nefertiti Toma."
The girls chuckled.
"What kind of name is that?" asked one of the Yuki fan club members.
Nefertiti glared at the girl. "If you want to know so badly then don't dis me." Nefertiti said, sharply yet coolly. "I am from Egypt and it is an ancient Egyptian name."
"Now I understand that this is your first real day of school."
"Yes, my people believed in the old ways."
"And what would that be?" Asked the same girl.
Nefertiti growled. "I am a tribes woman from the dessert and that is all I can say."
"If you can say that means you would have to kill us or something?"
Nefertiti smirked. "That is pretty much how it goes." She said.
"Alright Miss Toma have a seat next to Yuki."
Nefertiti took a seat next to Yuki.
Yuki smiled at her.
"Now class today we will be actually learning about Egyptian culture." The teacher smiled. "Now there are two kinds of people that live in Egypt. The real Egyptians and the dessert people the Majai."
Nefertiti's golden green eyes went wide. She hated it when people brought up the fact that there were still Majais in the world. She just gripped the edge of her desk as she tried her best not to listen to the teacher that was talking about her people.
Yuki looked at her concerned. He had never seen someone act like that in his entire life that was a girl.
Later That Day After School
Nefertiti followed Yuki, Kyo, and Tohru out of the school.
"We will see you tomorrow then?" Asked Tohru.
Nefertiti smiled. "Yes, you'll see me tomorrow."
"Ok be safe on your way home." Tohru said, softly. "Wouldn't want someone to jump you."
"Don't worry about me ok Tohru. I'll be fine. Besides I am use to fighting so if someone would jump me I could handle them on my own."
Tohru looked at her concerned.
"Don't worry about it alright Tohru. I'll be fine. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Ok have a good rest of the day Nefertiti-chan."
"I will." Nefertiti began to walk away from the group.
"That girl is sure strange." Said Kyo.
"Kyo that's not very nice." Said Tohru.
"Well she is strange. I have never seen a girl like that."
"Shut up you stupid cat." Yuki said walking away from them.
"What did you say you damn rat?"
"Kyo stop it." Tohru said.
Kyo automatically stopped.
With Nefertiti
Nefertiti slowly walked down the sidewalk coughing every once and a while. "Why did it have to be so different here? It is a lot colder then what I thought it would be. I just hope I am not getting sick." She thought to herself as she walked to the woods where she was staying at. She went to her tent and went inside. She let out a soft sigh and curled up into her blankets that she had. Tomorrow would be different she hoped. That is all she could do was hope and prey that she found someone that was cursed so they could break their curses together. She buried herself under her covers even more. She coughed some more as she closed her eyes and drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
Egypt
Hatshepsut glared at her nurse Aria. "I don't care Aria. We have to find her. She wasn't supposed to leave."
"I understand Hatshepsut. I am sure we will find her. Tend to one she went to Japan to where Isis went."
Hatshepsut sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "She wants to break the curse. I know she does."
"What is so wrong with that? If the curses are broken we will still be together no matter what."
"If you put it that way."
"Hatshepsut she is trying to save you. She knows that these curses that you have to bare all together will end up killing you in the end. She wants to save you." Aria said grabbing a needle to give Hatshepsut a shot. She gave Hatshepsut her shot. "Everything will be fine."
