mE: hEY! Weird way of writing huh. I was going to this whole note like that, but I think my head would hurt. Hah! So Anyway, if any of you are interested in Ouran High School Host Club I have started my revision on my story for that category. I'm keeping the old one up, but if you have read it, I am changing some things about it, so don't think I am completely following that path.

Anyways, I am here to start my revision on Ever Changing Fate. I will be honest with you good people. I was planning on dropping this story, but I have recently been reading the Manga again, and I have a new motivation. I will be slow, because I can only work on my Grandmother's lap top, but I will update as soon as I can. At least once a month... Hopefully. Just as I am doing with my Ouran fic, I will not be following the exact path of my older fic. I have a new light to where I want this to go. It will be a long journey, because all the characters will start as children and by the end they will be adults. I hope you all will follow me on this adventure. :)

Enjoy!


"Tohru, you're the Riceball!" The voice had came from a young boy. His hair was jet black, and his eyes were dark, but filled with a certain spark as they bore into the blue ones of the girl he had referred to. A girl stood behind him, snickering, her green eyes holding the same light. As they continued on with giving the other children their names, Tohru giggled in excitement. She had not seen the way the two kids had looked at her, she was just happy she could become something so tasty like the rice ball.

The girl's big blue eyes sparkled as the game started. She watched excitedly as kids around were picked. Her hands gripped the edge of her chair in anticipation. She could hardly contain her excitement, as more names were called.

"Lime!" That was a girl right next to her. Tohru's eyes darted along with the girl as she quickly made it to another chair without getting caught. Then Tohru looked to the Gardner, the boy who had given her the riceball. She saw that he was staring right at her. Her smile grew, her heart beated faster. She hoped that he was getting ready to pick her. However, as her toes met the floor, she was disappointed to her the name Banana called instead.

This did not deter her happiness and joy, though. Tohru continued to watch the others squeal in happiness. She couldn't wait until it was her to be picked. She would be laughing as loud as the others. May be this would be her chance to actually make friends with one of them.

"Alright kids, it's time to put up your chairs. The bell is going to ring any second." The teacher spoke softly. Tohru's head snapped up to the clock. It was indeed time to go home.

"But... I wasn't called." She stated in a quiet whisper. Then her attention was focused on several kids laughing loudly. One was even pointing at her while clutching his stomach. Tohru tilted her head in confusion, her eyes were filled with sorrow.

"Of course you weren't, Dummy." The main boy said through his laughter. He then grinned at her evilly. His expression was grim as he looked to her. "A riceball doesn't belong in a Fruits Basket, but that's why I gave it to you. You have something in common, just like the riceball, you don't belong." He snickered at her.

"Yeah, no one wants you. Not even your Mommy." The girl behind him stated meanly. Tohru gasped, her hand coming up to cover her mouth. Her eyes widened in pain, tears beginning to swell in her eyes.

"That's not true. My Mommy loves me." Tohru defended. She stood up, to hold her strength. Her fists were clenched to her chest as her body shook. The girl stopped laughing and walked up to Tohru.

"What? You think you're tough." She shoved Tohru roughly to the ground. The teacher swirled around from her place by the door. However, before the adult could scold or even find out what was happening, Tohru found herself on her feet once more and ran. She ran right past the teacher. She ran outside the doors. She ran down the cement path that led out of the playground. She ran passed the gates of her school. All the while as she ran, Tohru could hear the sound of feet thudding behind her.

Tohru chanced a look behind her and gasped in fright when she saw the girl and boy chasing her along with a few others. This caused Tohru to muster all the strength she could to run faster. She heard the taunts made by the kids behind her. Tohru began to panic. Due to her fright and running without stopping, Tohru could make out anything familiar.

Finally, the sounds of the taunts and foot steps behind her stopped. Tohru didn't stop running, though. She was too afraid. The thoughts of the kids pushing her again, or stating that her mother hated her kept her from slowing down. Their mean words kept running around her head. She wasn't even paying attention to anything around her anymore. She looked behind her, just to make sure they had really stopped following her.

"Hey, watch where you're running, you little brat." A woman had snarled when Tohru had accidentally ran into her. Tohru's eyes were still tearful as she apologized and bowed in respect to the woman. In reply the woman merely scoffed and walked on. Finally, Tohru looked around to try to identify where she was. Tall buildings scattered around, busy streets with many cars were straight ahead, a sea full of people struggled to make it across the streets in time for the light. Tohru vaguely recognized it as a place she has been with her mom.

Her mom...

Tohru backed up slowly, the sights around her terrifying her. She had no idea where home was. She didn't have a clue where to start. As she backed up, more and more people surrounded her. The tears in her eyes overflowed and graced down her cheeks. Her chest heaved as she refused to let out a sob.

"Mommy!" She shouted, hoping her Mom, where ever she was, could hear her. The crowd had shoved her gently closer and closer to a dark corner between two buildings. The sun was slowly making its way behind the small hills in the distance. Tohru crouched down, her arms folding around her knees. In the dark corner, the only sound that could be heard, was the soft sound of crying as the girl weeped herself to sleep.


Tohru groaned gently as she stretched out her legs. The feeling of small pebbles beneath her skin, made her blue eyes widen. Tohru gasped as her head snapped to attention. She had started to believe that getting lost was only a nightmare. She brought her legs back to her chest. The cool air brought goosebumps to her arms. Tohru shivered slightly, because of the wind and because of her fright.

"Mommy!" She called out again. Tears began to fall down her cheeks once more. She had to sniffle several times so that snot didn't run down her cheeks.

The sound of feet scuffing the ground, made Tohru become silent. Her fear was that it had been someone from her school. She was scared that it could be the kids that picked on her.

The sight of orange quickly flashed around the corner. Tohru had looked around to catch a better glimpse. The figure had stopped dead in their tracks and had turned around. It was a young boy that looked to be around her age. Tohru gasped as she quickly coward back into her corner. The shade of the orange peeked around and stared down at her.

Tohru's eyes became wide, her face suddenly felt hot. The boy's red eyes looked deep into her blue ones. They were beautiful in contrast with his tan skin and pretty orange hair. His fists were clenched to his sides. One of his wrists were adorned with a bracelet with the colors of a maroon and white. The boy looked tired and flustered, but Tohru could not stop her thoughts on how cute she thought he was.

"Tohru?" The boy's voice made her jump. It was so gentle, but sounded exhausted. "You're Tohru. I know you are." He stated, walking closer. Tohru whimpered, and e flinched. This ceased his movements. This time he crouched where he was, holding out his hand. "Hey, I won't hurt you. I've been looking everywhere for you." He said softly. Tohru tilted her head. She almost didn't notice the tinge of red that appeared on his cheeks.

"Why?" She asked bashfully.

"I'm here to take you home." The boy spoke. Tohru instantly perked up at this. She stood up, the boy following in suit. She ran up to him, clasping her hands together to her chest. The boy looked flustered as he took a step back.

"Really!" Tohru shouted in excitement. The boy scratched the back of his neck shyly. He nodded and grabbed her hand. Tohru blushed brightly.

"Yeah, so let's get a move on." He muttered, avoiding her gaze. He pulled her away from the dark corner. "You're mom has been worried sick about you. She has the whole city looking for you, but I promised to find you." He informed her. Tohru stayed quiet, her thoughts drifting to home, then she focused on the face of the boy. His eyes looked at her through the side. "What?" He asked in irritation.

"You know who I am, but who are you?" Tohru asked. The boy looked at her sheepishly.

"I guess you're right. I'm Kyo Sohma." Tohru beamed at him, this caused the boy to blush.

"Kyo-kun." She sang to herself. Kyo looked down and refused to look at her. Tohru took her time observing the boy who had found her. She looked to Kyo's hair to his eyes to his clothes. Kyo finally looked back to her, his eyes slightly squinted.

"What?" He asked. Tohru blushed at being caught. Kyo took this wrong, as her finding him disgusting. "I know, my hair is a weird color." He grumbled. Tohru shook her head furiously.

"No not at all! I think Kyo-kun's hair is pretty. Kyo-kun is a very cute boy!" Tohru shouted, she then noticed that they had stopped moving. She then noticed the words that had left her lips. Embarrassed, she slapped a hand on her mouth. Her face became cherry red. Kyo just stared at her, his face becoming just as red."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say that out loud."

"I think," Kyo finally spoke as he looked to the ground. His action led to his hair to cover his face. "I think Tohru is cute too. I like your smile." he confessed shyly. Tohru gasped softly, her eyes sparkling at his words. Her heart began to beat rapidly.

"Kiddo! Have you found her? Have you found any traces or... Tohru!" The sound of her Mother's voice, made Tohru turn around sharply. Her smile stretched across her face, her arms spreading wide, and her feet running quickly to her mother. The elder woman swooped Tohru in her arms, she then kissed the girl all over her face. Tohru giggled loudly, tears streaming down her face in joy. All the while the orange-haired boy watched the scene lovingly. "Oh kiddo!" Kyoko shouted, gazing ay him. "You brought my treasure home. Thank you! Thank you!"

Kyo smiled at her shyly, looking down to his feet.

"Mama! I'm so sorry. I got lost, but I didn't know how to get home." Tohru cried. Kyoko only smiled through her own tears and kissed the girl's face again.

"It doesn't matter. You are here in my arms again. Never do that again. I didn't know what I would do without my precious Tohru."

"I promise, Mommy." Tohru vowed. She then look down to Kyo. "But, if I do. I know Kyo-kun will find me again." She giggled. Kyo scuffed the ground sheepishly. His face becoming red again. Kyoko's eyes blinked a few times before a smile spread across her face.

"Kyo, huh?" Kyoko smiled. Kyo looked at her with blazing eyes. "What a cute name." She giggled. Kyo growled. Tohru nodded in agreement from her Mom's arms.

"Kyo-kun is cute." She stated.

"I'm not cute! I'm a man, and men aren't cute!" He shouted, pointing to the both of them. The only reaction he recieved was a laugh from the two girls. He blushed and turned his head, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Well, would a man want a snack?" Kyoko asked. Kyo didn't answer, he simply turned his entire body away. After a few moments he decided to answer the woman.

"No. I have to get home. My master is probably wondering where I am." He stated.

"Will I see Kyo-kun again?" Tohru shouted. She was set to the grond and ran to the boy, grasping his white shirt. Kyo only stared at her in wonder. Finally he nodded, giving her a soft smile.

"Yeah, maybe tomorrow." he answered. Tohru giggled.

"Great idea! Bring you're master. I would love to meet him." Kyoko suggested. Kyo nodded, and turned once again to head home. As he got farther away, he suddenly heard shouting.

"Bye, Kyo-kun. See you tomorrow!" Tohru shouted to him. Kyo smiled back and waved.

"Yeah, see ya tomorrow." He yelled back.

"C'mon, Baby let's go inside." Kyoko ushered the small girl. She noticed as her daughter's eyes stayed on the disappearing figure beyond the upcoming horizon. She smiled at the obvious crush that her daughter had on the boy she had come to known. She knew that her daughter would love the kid she talked to everyday in the afternoon. She just hoped that Kyo would feel the same way. But seeing how he hadn't given back her picture of Tohru, she knew he would.

At the thought, Kyoko became happy. Not only because it was her baby's happiness, but she believed that boy deserved a happiness to himself. Over the past weeks, Kyoko had observed many things about the awkward boy and just in the past few minutes she saw him smile more than she had ever seen. She wondered on if the boy's master would be happy about the same thing.

Then her mind drifted back to the event at hand. Her precious treasure was home, and now it was time to spoil her baby with many treats.

She might even tell her the story of the zodiac, Tohru's favorite.


Me: I believe this chapter was longer than the original. I hope that I am being more descriptive. I really want this revision to be better. I hoped you all liked. :)
