Hello people of FanFiction. I do not know why I am creating a new story but I am, so don't ask! I will try my hardest to update when I can. But I also apologize for not updating ANYTHING in forever. I am sorry, my computer was down and I was soooooooo sad. But anyways, this is my new Fruits Basket story. Name may change. Obviously I don't own it. Please excuse the strange title and summary. It was a split decision. 3 I felt weird submitting this story, so I am sorry if it is all crazy, it has been on my mind for a while so I forgot a lot of what I had planned. And at this moment, it has no SET plot, but one will come up. Also, i didn't have my beta for this one...so again, sorry for mistakes.

It was winter and I just wanted to curl up in my blankets and sleep until spring. Too bad I couldn't. Niiro had told me earlier that he had talked to Kana about us going to a public school. At first she had denied the request, but after much talk and bribes, she finally agreed.

Let's start with introductions, shall we? I am Katsune Kobainu, which is pulled from kitsune meaning 'fox' or 'silver fox' and 'small dog', born under the year of the dragon, given the curse of the...red fox. I know, it's weird. Niiro, meaning 'red,' my brother, is cursed by the silver fox. Even weirder. Our father expected him to be the red fox while I to be the silver fox hence the names. The Kobainu family is a lot like the Sohma family, except for the fact that we Kobainu's are cursed by canine animals. The Kobainu's and the Sohma's are rivaling families, so interaction between us is forbidden, but Niiro and I don't care. The Kobainus' 'God', Kana, is much like Akito, possibly just as cruel.

Kana and Akito have known each other since they were little. They have always hated each other. I think it started because one of them stole the other' boyfriend…though, I could be wrong. Our family has a story that goes along with the cursed forms, but I couldn't, for the life of me, remember any of it.

Niiro and I are fraternal twins and we have a younger sister, Katana, about twelve. She also has been cursed… by the spirit of a wolf, though her hair and eye color were not as unusual as ours, jet black. Though Niiro and I look almost nothing alike, we are both similar as far as personalities. Niiro, obviously, has shinning silver orbs and dark silver, almost gray, shoulder length hair. I, on the other hand, have been blessed with dark red eyes and a scarlet shade of hair which I kept waist length...There was another thing that was different about the foxes. Every generation, the foxes are always born as fraternal or identical twins... That and every person born under the year of the fox was given the ability to read minds, which is kind of creepy.

Together we had our ears and elsewhere pierced. Niiro had seven in each ear and a barbell through his tongue. Mine was like his, sort of. I had nine piercings filling both sides of the ear cartilage and spider bites and a matching tongue barbell. Okay, maybe it wasn't like his. Though we just had our sixteen birthday and will soon be entering our third year in high school, I found out I was actually small for my age. I didn't let it bother me because I guess I was used to it. Niiro was about five foot nine while I was only five foot one. My shortness also gave me less weight to have to live up to. But I still worked out in Shishou's dojo three times a week.

But back to the matter at hand, today was another chilly day in my life, and I wanted to stay in bed. So I was mad as I was forced out of it. I was in pain from yesterday, though I couldn't remember what happened. Niiro pulled me out of the main house because he had to talk to Shigure, the dog in the Sohma family, and didn't want to go alone. I was dead on my feet as we walked through the town on our way to the house in the middle of the forest. I wish I was Katana, still in bed, sleeping. On my way out, I was about to grab some tequila, to push away the pain, but I found that there was only a swig left in the bottle. It was strange because Niiro and my mother don't drink, so I thought it might have been my father on a drinking binge. I put the bottle back down and grabbed an aspirin for my head anyways.

I was leaning on Niiro, and forcing my legs to move, it was almost like he was carrying me. Then he gave up. He reached around me and threw me on his back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and my legs around his torso. I still couldn't remember what happened yesterday or why my arm hurt, but I shook it off.

"You are an awesome brother, Ni-Ni."

He laughed, "I better be. I'm taking you to see your boy toy."

My eyes shot open. "That's right; Yuki's going to be there." I pushed myself off of Niiro and took off running. Ah Yuki. His and my relationship was still in the making. Yeah, I knew he liked me and he knows I like him but obviously something was stopping us, Akito. So he and I were kind of...seeing each other but no one was aware…well, maybe the Mabudachi Trio might…and maybe Katana.

I walked up to the door and knocked. There were noises near the door, and soon Shigure slid open and blinked.

"Shigure-bocchan!" I yelled, possibly too loud.

His eyes widened. "Katsune? What are you doing here?"

Niiro approached us, gasping for breath. "How are you so fast?"

"I'm not a mutt, I'm a purebreed." I smiled. "Anyways, Shigure-bocchan, Niiro brought me over so he and you could talk about...a book or something. I came with because I would like a copy of your new one."

A grin spread across Shigure's face. "Of course, come in. I will just take Niiro into my office and we'll have this chat. Oh and Kat, Yuki and the others are on their way home." He led Niiro into a little office and I smiled, slipping off my coat.

Others? From what I know, Yuki and Kyo were sent to live here with Shigure. But he said 'Yuki and the others' that must mean there's more than those two... Maybe Haru or Momiji came to help them? No one else would volunteer to come over. The only thing I could do was to wait...Or I could go snooping around. I like that idea.

I slowly tip-toed out of the room. Hmmm, where would the rooms be? Upstairs. I looked through the first room and was met with...Kyo's stuff, I didn't even want to go through his stuff, I shuttered. The one across from his was Yuki's. I scanned the room, looking at the pictures I had taped on the wall last time we were here of him and me. Before I left I saw something that shocked me.

...is that the bra I left last time I was here? -Sob- I'm turning him into a pervert, how could I be any more proud?

I left his room, and was off to the next one that looked like a bedroom. But before I could, I heard Niiro call me.

"Kat! Where are you?"

I skipped down to the bottom of the stairs, smiling. I could now hear the thoughts of five people in the room, Shigure, Niiro, Yuki, Kyo...and a female. That was when my smile faded.

"Where-" Niiro started, though he already knew.

"I...thought I heard a noise."

Lie. He thought.

I shrugged slightly. Bite me. I turned around and slid the door open. Before either of the three knew it, I flung myself at Yuki.

"I missed you, Yun-Yun." He soon recovered and wrapped his arms around me.

Missed you too, Kat.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

A few minutes later we were all inside. Yuki and I sat next to each other on the couch with Niiro to the other side of me. Kyo sat by himself on the floor on the other side of the room. I laid my head on Yuki's shoulder and smiled, I missed these people. Yuki placed his hand over mine and let out a small chuckle.

"So what the hell are you doing here?" Kyo demanded.

"Hi, Kat, how are you today? Oh, I am fine, thank you for asking, Kyo." I rolled my eyes. "You good for nothing piece of shit."

"Enough with the crap; if you want a fight; just say so." He growled back.

I shrugged. "Okay, I want a fight. You, me, right here, right now."

I would love to see that. A midget murdering a cat, I bet PETA will be right on that.

I frowned and gave Niiro the finger. "I am not a midget! I am just…short."

"No fighting in my home." Shigure's voice came from somewhere in the house.

"Don't worry; I'll try not to get blood everywhere. I want to see how quick it'll take his brain to explode."

Tohru, whose name I had recently learned, walked back into the room. I still didn't like her. I didn't like her when I first met her a few weeks ago at their school. I had gone with Momiji and Hatori to check up on them. Her thoughts were too innocent, both then and now. It was impossible. For the past few minutes, Yuki had been telling me, mentally, how she originally came here. Did I mention I still don't like her? Yuki only thought good stuff about her which made me...a little jealous.

We all began talking about one thing or another when it started. I was keeping an ear open to everything everyone said but I was talking to Shigure about his new romance book. The six of us moved to where we were sitting in a small circle, Niiro to the right of me, Shigure, Kyo, Tohru, and then Yuki to the left of me.

"I think I'm getting a cold."

I turned immediately to Yuki and had my hand out, ready to check his temperature, but it seemed Tohru was already checking him. I clenched my hand into a fist and bit my lip.

"Th-that's terrible! Do you have a fever?" She placed her hand on his head. "Let's see...You do feel a little warm."

I bit harder and felt blood on my tongue. Okay, maybe I was more than a little jealous. I stood up abruptly and walked over to slip on my shoes.

"I...I'm going out for a walk, Ni-Ni."

And that was it. I didn't say anything to anyone else. I just walked out. It wasn't until ten minutes later when I realized I had left my jacket inside. I don't even know where I was, just that I was somewhere in the middle of the forest. The tears started to well up in my eyes. What the hell did I do and why? Why do I feel intimidated by this girl I just met?

I started pacing back and forth, feeling the tears slide down my face. "Dammit, dammit, dammit!" I let out a scream and punched the nearest tree. It wasn't until a few moments later did I realize that it was my injured hand.

"Maybe if you yell 'dammit' a few more times, the universe might let you live peacefully."

I didn't even move as I heard his voice. He sighed walked up behind me as I clutched my hand to my chest. "What happened in there?"

"I don't know. I don't even know her...And I just...She's living with you, doesn't that give me the permission to be a little bit jealous?" And now I was yelling at him? What's wrong with me?

"Why are you jealous of her?"

"Why am I jealous of her?" I cried. "Because…you should be with someone like her…not me! She's smart, beautiful, innocent...she's perfect. But I'm not! I am the opposite. I'm not smart, I'm a smartass, I am barely passing classes, I wouldn't call myself beautiful, obnoxious maybe, but not beautiful. And I am not innocent. That's why you need something better. You need her! But I'm a selfish person; I'm not letting you go. So why am I jealous? Because I love you, Yuki."

He stopped me mid-rant. Well, not him, technically, his lips, mostly, as they crashed against mine. He wrapped his arms around my waist as his tongue slipped past my lips. I weaved my fingers through his hair. He pushed me against the closest tree and slowly pulled back. He dropped his lips to my neck and sighed.

"She's nothing to me, not like you. You are everything...My whole world, my life. Okay? Kat, I love you too."

"Yun-Yun." I was able to smile past the tears. "I love you."

He laid his head on my shoulder, chuckling softly. "I love you too, Kat, and nothing, no one can change that, believe me." The tears were falling silently now. He tightened his grip on my waist and nuzzled my neck. I hid my head in the crook of his neck. "I love you Kat, I love you and only you. You are so smart, and beautiful, don't you dare think otherwise. You are not innocent, I cannot deny that," he chuckled, "but that is one of the many things I love about you."

"Dammit, Yun-Yun, it's things like that that make me feel like jelly when I'm around you. There are times when we are together when I feel like a different person. I want to stay that way." Please don't leave me.

We stood there for quite some time. I almost forgot we were in the middle of the forest when he sighed.

"We should probably head back soon; I have school in the morning."

I sighed and began twisting his hair in a circular motion. "That reminds me, come the new school year, Niiro and I will be attending Kaibara High."

"Finally able to get out of the house?"

"Finally...You do realize this means I will be at your school for the next few weeks...I could be worse, I could be like Kagura...or like Haru." I muttered closing my eyes. I didn't want to move, I wanted to stay in his arms.

I don't expect anything less. "Are you ready to go now?"

I shook my head. "No...Too cozy." He didn't say anything for a long moment. I don't recall if I fell asleep then and what happened next. The next time I opened my eyes, Yuki was carrying me on his back. How did I get here? I truly didn't care, so I tightened my grip on him. The last thing I remembered before I fell back asleep was telling him once more, "I love you."

I love you too.

You might think this chapter is going fast, but the thing is, they've known each other all their life and I had to get out their feelings before Motoko and her minions appear. Love y'all, bye. Another thing, I changed a LOT in a little amount of time, so if something doesn't add up or make sense, feel free to message me/leave the question in a review
