Hello! Yet another Fruits Basket fan fiction, from my brilliant and inspired mind (as if). I know, it's not really A Midsummer Night's Dream and it's not really Fruits Basket but, cut me some slack. Creative license! Well, anyone who hates any change to either story probably won't like it, but then again, you probably wouldn't be on Fan Fiction either. I know it should probably be in crossovers, but I think I'd get more hits by putting it here. Anyway, once again, I own nothing, although I doubt if I said I was Shakespeare you would believe it.


It all started on a bright summer's day. Tohru Honda was strolling along at her leisure. It was Saturday. Work had let out early, there was no homework left to finish, and nothing was in the way of her having a perfectly good day. Until…BAM! The door to Shigure's house opened with a crash. Yuki stomped out, fuming and nearly bumped into Tohru.

"Oh," he said distractedly. "Sorry, Miss Honda."

"YUKIIII" called a self-important voice from inside. "Where are you my favorite little brother?"

"Oh, god," sighed Yuki.

"What's the matter?" asked Tohru in concern. Yuki looked at her mournfully.

"Oh, nothing Miss Honda. It's just, that stupid cats been getting on my nerves, Kagura's bashing in the house trying to find him, Shigure's torturing his editor again, and to top it all off, my idiot brother shows up and starts parading around the house like its nobody's business." Yuki breathed deeply. "I wish I could just get away from them for a while…" He lapsed into silence. After a while, he looked at Tohru. "Hey, I have an idea! Let's run away for a while! Go on an adventure, and then come back later when everything's smoothed over." Tohru's eyes grew wide.

"I don't know Yuki…Shouldn't we tell someone? Shigure might worry…" she said nervously. Yuki smiled.

"They're all so busy, they probably won't even notice," he said. Tohru laughed.

"I guess that's okay then," she said happily, "Let's go!"


Despite all the commotion, it only took Kyo a few moments to notice Tohru's disappearance. He stalked the house quietly, hoping to avoid the vigilant ear of Kagura. He darted around, checking the kitchen, the bedrooms, and even knocking on the bathroom door, but Tohru was no where to be found. And due to the tantrum Ayame was throwing downstairs, he assumed Yuki was gone too.

"Damn," he muttered. Where had that damn rat taken his Tohru this time? Suddenly, he heard a crashing noise come rushing down the stairs.

"KYO! MY LOVE!" Kagura was running towards him at about 40 mph and hit him so hard he burst through the wall. Soon, she was hugging him so tight he thought his eyes might just pop right out of their sockets.

"Oh, Kyo! I'm so glad I found you! I was so worried that you didn't want to see me and that you were hiding, but now I know you were just in the bathroom this whole time! Let's go out! We could go to the park, or see a movie or…"

"God dammit, Kagura!" Kyo roared. "I don't want to do anything with you! I'm just trying to find Tohru!" For a second, Kagura sat in shocked silence. Then she pushed him playfully, sending him back against another wall.

"Oh, I get it!" She giggled. "You want to go on a double date, with Yuki and Tohru too! What a great idea! Let's go find them!" And within moments, Kyo was being dragged out of the house, still determined to find Tohru before she fell for that dirty rat.


Hatsuharu was sitting on one of the walls, surrounding the outside of Sohma House. And he was bored. Bored to tears. Bored, bored, bored. He sighed. He remembered when he and Rin were still going out. Then, he had never been bored. They had fun all the time.

As if drawn by the waves of negativity, Momiji was on the scene.

"Hey, Haru!" he cried happily.

"So, what's up?" Haru said moodily. "Anything new?" Momiji nodded excitedly.

"Tohru and Yuki have run off, and now Kyo and Kagura have gone after them!" he said giggling. Haru shook his head.

"Uh, I'm not in the mood for such antics today, I'm afraid," he sighed. He grabbed some leaves and flowers off a nearby tree and mixed them together with feverish ferocity. "See, if you put this potion on the eyes of any person, they'll fall in love with the first person they see," he explained. At the word "love", he ached. Why had Rin dumped him? A ripple of anger surged through his body. 'What right did she have, after all we have been through together?!' he thought, seething. Soon, he had transformed into Black Haru, and was thinking of all the nasty things he could do to get revenge. Then he thought of the perfect thing.

"Momiji? Who is the most obnoxious person you know?" he asked innocently.

"Well, there's this kid, Manabe," Momiji said thoughtfully. "Kakeru Manabe, I think. He's a year older then me, so I don't know him very well, but Yuki talks about him ALL the time!" Haru smiled evilly.

"Perfect."
