Hey, Naturegirl360 here

Hooray! My first Fruits Basket Fanfic, I hope you guys enjoy my story. Again, I do like Kyo/Tohru, but Tohru's characters description does not suite my story idea.

Well, let the story begin!

Disclaimer: I don't own Fruits Basket... Only my characters!


Chapter One

(Kyo P.O.V)

-Monday-

What is the point of going to this dumb school anyway? All I'm going to get is the girl I loved and that dam Rat making out all day. Not to mention, the whole school and my family, *well, apart from my adopted dad* hates me!

I coped enough with Tohru excepting my inner beast, but now... Why does the world hate me? "Hey, stupid Cat. Stop daydreaming and move it or we will be late for school", Rat-boy spoke, annoyingly. "Whatever", I casually said, shoving my hands into my jacket pocket. For once, I'm wearing a jacket because I just couldn't take the cold anymore; as well feeling more hidden in my jacket, no one will recognise me so they won't bully me more.

You got that right. Ever since we returned to school last week, everyone found out about my failure with winning Tohru and they started picking on me. "Oh Yuki, have you heard about the new transfer students coming in today?" Tohru cheerfully questioned the said person as he nodded his silver-haired head.

"Of course, it is my responsibility to know since I'm class president. Don't worry, Tohru; you know that only you belong in my heart and no one else", oh please. Someone give me a barf-bag. Thankfully, two minutes after the torture of the goo-goo eyed couple; we arrived to the front gate of the school. Straight away, the couple left towards the two weird girls that Tohru always hangs around with.

Only leaving me... By myself, feeling half better because of the relief of not gagging on the overly-loved couple... And half worse, because I'm all alone again and I'll always will be. *Hum, maybe I should take a look at the transfer students and then get to class*, I thought to myself. With that decided, I headed towards the school hangouts for people to chat and introduce each other.

I saw a lot of the transfer student's very geeky guys and a few girls. Only a third of them were called for the popular guys and girls. "Hey, look at that loner over there", whispered one of the students said to another. "I know, doesn't she have any sense of style at all?" One whispered back, earning some more laughs in the progress.

I looked towards the direction of the points and saw a small girl with her brown hair in a fish-tail style and a cream-coloured French hat that covered most of her head. She also was wearing a baggy dull red-coloured jumper over her school shirt and the long sleeves hid her hands. She is sitting by a tree, on her laptop. In fact, my tree that I normally relax by; but, weirdly enough I didn't mind.

I then noticed something strange about the laptop. There on the lid was the twelve zodiac sign and beside it sat a lonely cream-coloured cat with sapphire eyes; matching the girls own mysterious eyes.

"Step aside, I'm going to talk to her", said a transfer student, who was in fact the girl that annoys me the most by giving me broken bones... Kagura Sohma. She went over to the mysterious girl, *how old is she, thirteen? She must be between the year of the Dog or the Rooster*.

"Hi there", Kagura cheered, dryly. The little brunette looked up from her laptop shyly and answered load enough for me to hear. "C-Ciao", her voice had an Italian accent. "My name's Kagura Sohma. What's yours?"

"A-Angel Maria Rosette", her accent turned really strong as she pronounced her surname; Kagura and some other students that were with her giggled. "Yeh... You don't mind if we call you Ange for short", the Boar-Zodiac then burst into a fit of laughter. But, the Angel girl did not seem to like and backed away a little, turning really shy.

*Okay, this is something that has to stop... Even, if I do break a couple of more bones from Kagura*, I decided marching towards the crowd. "Kagura leave her alone. Do you always have to course trouble?" Bad mistake, because now she is hugging me so hard that I could hear my ribs cracking.

"Oh Kyo my love, I knew you would come to find me!" She cooed loudly, breaking more bones. I heard the Italian girl behind me spoke up, "I-I don't mean any harm. But, I think you're breaking his bones". Kagura let go and glared at her.

"You can't tell me what to do, Ange", things are going to get worse and now I can't help. "I just only wanted to make sure no one got hurt... I don't want anyone hurt", she whispered, slowly backing away. Suddenly, when I thought that it was over Kagura shouted back, "you really are a loner. Backing away from your own kind, let me guess you're that animal girl that moved into that old run-down cottage in the woods. Ha, your only friends are probably animals!"

"I may have animal friends, but I learned their ways. For example, as far as I know; I've seen all the Sohma's of the school and they each have their own scent." She looked at Hatori and Momiji who had seen the whole scene. "A Cow and a Rabbit", and turned to Yuuki, who as well returned to see the scene; with Tohru of course.

"A Rat", she spat, her accent strong; as if it was the most disgusting thing in existence. She turned to me with gentle sapphire eyes, "a Cat", finally back to Kagura. "And last, but not least; a Pig... Or is s'it a Boar? I'm not quite sure if there's a difference".

People chuckled lightly from the background. *H-How does she know about our animal scent?* I thought in disbelieve. Suddenly, she backed away one more time, since Kagura was stunned in disbelieve as well. Angel, I think it was, turned around heading towards the school building as class was about to start; not without saying.

"I think it t'is best, if I just stay out of your lives. Besides, I don't really need any help", she added obviously towards me. Then she disappeared inside the building.

-On Friday-

I never really saw much of the strange girl, apart from home-room and some lesson. This week, even with the whole event on Monday, my life seemed to be getting worse. I've even begun to stay in my room after, only to come out for training or to pick up/drop off my food plate and return to my room.

Sometimes, I pick a fight with that dam Rat. Mostly because I was 'worrying Tohru' with the whole attitude and all; it is nice to know that she still cares for me, but, only as a brother and sister kind of way.

*If only I had one more chance, to be happy again... Just one more chance, before I have to spend the rest of my life in that cage*, I pleaded my thoughts. Finally, I went to bed, struggle to fall asleep again.

*Please*


Me: Well, that's Chapter One. I'm practically excited to write the next, because of my next idea.

Kyo: Then hurry up, just having to act depressed, is my making me depressed.

Me: *Knowing look* Ahh, does 'ittle wittle' Kyo already have a crush on a certain character of mine?

Kyo: As if!

Angel: Huh? What's t'is going on?

Kyo: Nothing! *Storms off*

Angel and me:?

Me: Anyway... Let me know if you guys like to see more. Read and Review, please! And I'll see you next time.
