A/N: This is my second FB fic and I wanted to write a fic with Mayu as the main character. I don't know much about her but there you go… You can see this chapter as the prologue.

"I'm sorry, Hatori-san… I shouldn't have said that…I-Ignore it…" I mumbled, looking at the floor. I started to turn and walk to my room, but I stumbled, toppling into Hatori's arms.

The next thing I knew, smoke was around me. When the smoke cleared I saw Hatori has disappeared and there was just a pile of clothes on the floor. There was a tiny seahorse on top of the clothes.

'What the hell?' I asked myself. A second later, more smoke appeared and Hatori stood in front of me. It was another second before I realised he was naked. I quickly spun around, blushing hard.

"You can turn around now, it's safe," said Hatori said. I turned and looked at him.

"What just happened?" I asked him. He sighed.

"I knew you'd find out eventually, what with me and Shigure and Yuki, Kyo and Tohru-kun…How am I going to explain this?" he asked more to himself rather than me, before looking up. "I am one of the unlucky members of the Sohma family. In our family, there are thirteen people cursed with the spirits of the zodiac and the cat. I am cursed with the spirit of the dragon, so when I am hugged I appear as a seahorse…Rather embarrassing sometimes…"

"Who are the other members of the family that are cursed?" I asked.

"You will find out when the time comes…" Hatori sighed. "I can understand if you've changed your mind now. You can leave whenever you want…" He turned around slightly and sat heavily on his couch.

"No. I want to stay. I always had my suspicions that your family was hiding something big. You mentioned Shigure, Yuki, Kyo and Honda-san. What do they have to do with this?"

"I don't want to tell you this all at once. Let's see…Yuki's got his monthly check up tomorrow. I've got to go over to Shigure's house to carry it out. You can come with me and find out where they all fit in with it. All I'll tell you now, is that Tohru-kun has influenced many people in the family and she is a blessing for us all…I probably would have just turned you away if it wasn't for her…" He trailed off and stood up. He nodded in my direction and headed to his bedroom, across the hall from my own.

I turned the light off and walked down the hallway myself. I shut myself in my room and got changed for sleep. I collapsed onto my bed and started to think.

I think Shigure must be one of the cursed. That would explain why he never got close to me during the month we were going out. Yuki and Kyo must be cursed as well…Tohru has the warm air around her that seems to help everybody. Oh well…I'll find out in the morning.

I soon fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.

A/N: That's the first chapter done…Short I know but the next chapter will probably be much longer. Also I may not update for a while, what wih homework and everyday life...
