Hey so this is my first Fruits basket story! Sorry this chapters is so short but the others will be longer. This is just a prolouge.

I own nothing except my OC, Yumi.

Yuki Sohma sighed as he looked through the mail. "Junk. Junk. Junk," He said exasperated. He was about to throw them all out when he noticed a certain letter.

He flipped the envelope over and read the back. Yuki Sohma was written in neat, exotic, spider-like hand writing. His eyes widened when he saw who it was from.

"Will ya stop staring at an envelope and move already?" Kyo said, annoyed.

"The letter," Yuki said. "Its from Yumi."

Kyo froze. "Seriously?" For once he didn't insult Yuki, he just stared at him.

"What are you two staring at?" Shigure asked, laughing. When Yuki told him who the letter was from, he stopped laughing and his eyes widened.

"Who's Yumi?" Tohru asked, stepping into the room.

"She's my… She's my twin sister." Yuki said, looking down.

"What?" Tohru exclaimed. "You have a sister?"

Yuki nodded sadly. "She was never cursed with the zodiac. Our mother wanted her to stay as far away from me as possible. Because I'm the rat. So… So when we were five, our mother took her away and left me at the Sohma estate. Ayame I haven't seen her or heard from her in 11 years."

Tohru was taken aback. She never would have guessed Yuki had a sister. But after hearing that story she didn't blame him for not telling her. They all looked at Yuki sympathetically, even Kyo.

Shigure broke the silence. "Yuki…do you want me to call Ayame so he can see the letter? Yumi is his sister, too."

Yuki sighed looking up. "For once, yes." Shigure only nodded and grabbed the phone.

"Hello Ayame." Shigure said seriously. "Yuki just got a letter. Its from Yumi." Ayame hung up. Five minutes later the door opened to reveal Ayame. His eyes were wide. "Is it true is it from Yumi." They all nodded. The snake of the family walked up to Yuki. "Well," He said. "Open it."

Yuki nodded and opened the envelope. He pulled out a letter and a small, folded up piece of paper. He set the folded paper on the table and began to read.

Dear Yuki,

I have great news! I have left our mother's house and am living on my own. Do you know what that means?

Yuki's violet eyes widened. Understanding what she met.

I can finally come and see you and Aya again.

Ayame did a genuine spit take with the water he was drinking.

I also called the main estate. Momiji answered and told me where you go to school. I'm already enrolled there and I start on Monday! I can't wait to see you!

Love,

Yumi Sohma

P.S. I have enclosed a picture of me so you recognize me. See ya soon.

Yuki carefully unfolded the other paper. Everyone in the room gathered around so they could see her. Yuki and Ayame smiled.

Yumi had the same family resemblance that Yuki and Ayame did. She looked like a female version of Yuki. The only differences were that her hair was long and black and her eyes were midnight blue.

Later after everyone left Yuki tried to sleep. Eventually he managed to fall asleep, ready to see his sister again.

Again sorry that it is so short the next chapter will be longer. No flamez Plz.
