Tohru woke up with a smile plastered across her face but soon disappeared and was replaced with a fake smile. The cause of this odd behavior was the knowledge that it is her birth day and then the realization that it is her 17th birthday. For Tohru her 17th birth day in her family is a day of grate calibration but in her case it is not. In her family a girl turning 17 will gain some… interesting powers. But they are hard to control for the first few months. For example she can walk through walls and become invisible! But for a boy they have the power to see through walls and have the ability to hear a conversation at a distance of 1,000 miles away!
Tohru is not thrilled about any of this for more than 1 resin. Because well… first off just last night her grandfather called to inform her all Honda's have a twin and are separated at birth but when they turn 17 the male of the twins has to go live with his sister so that they can help each other control their powers. Tohru had asked her grandfather "how and when will we meet?" to which he responded "the latest you will meet is at lunch time tomorrow. And no matter where in the world he is his instincts will bring him to you." thanks to a power outage their conversation was cut short. Tohru had gone to bed early so that it could all sink in.
Tohru lay in bed staring at the ceiling 'grate I have 2 choices either tell the Sohmas about this or don't and try to hide it all. If I go with #1 they might reject me but if I go with #2 I will risk them finding out on their own and then not trusting me. I will go with telling them.' Tohru sat up climbed out of bed and grabbed her clothes and put them on. After Tohru got dressed she headed to the kitchen to start making breakfast but as soon as she stepped out of the door way of her bed room she fell through the floor and in to the kitchen. When she hit the floor she looked up to see that there was no hole in the ceiling. As soon as she realized this she realized that she was not hurt and that she was shorter! After looking down she noticed that her legs were cut off at her knees!
Tohru sighed and thought hard about standing on solid ground, after thinking hard for a while she slowly began to rise to her normal height. Once she figured how to stay standing she started breakfast. About 2 hours latter all 3 men that live in the house were awake and eating breakfast. Tohru cleared her throat " ahemm!" they all looked up at her waiting for her to say something. "w-w-well I h-have s-s-s-some th-thing im-im-important to t-tell all of y-you. F-first off today is my 17th birth day and in t-the Honda f-f-family w-w-wh-when g-girls turn 17 they w-well… um… they can w-w-wal-walk t-th-through w-w-walls a-an-and be-become in-in-invisible w-whe-when t-th-they w-want t-t-t-to a-" "WHAT? WHERE DID YOU GO?" "what do you mean 'where did you go?' I am right hear see?" Tohru waved her hand in front of their faces. Only to see through her hand "GRATE I AM INVISIBLE! One moment."
Tohru started to think about solid objects and after a little bit she began to reaper. "There we go now can you see me?" she asked the men whose eyes were about to fall out of their heads. They nodded with their mouth's gaping open. "Well I guess that is all I have to say except I have a twin that I never knew I had till last night and he is going to be here today. (It came out more like this " .) But I hope this will not make you change your minds about me living here because I really don't want to leave I love living here." Shigure spoke up "n-n-no I-it is t-t-the l-least we c-c-can do f-for y-you n-not rejecting us and t-the c-curse." He was stuttering in shock at what he had just heard and saw. Tohru's face brightened up "thank you so much!" "Don't mention it!" right then there was a knock on the door. Tohru jumped up "that must be him!"
