Family Fued: A Fruits Basket Romeo & Juliet Story



Ok this started as a crazy idea to remake William Shakespear's classic love story, Romeo & Juliet but hehe the twist is I'm going to do it furuba style ^_^

For those who are familiar with the original story and characters it shouldn't be hard to figure out which shakespear's character is matched up with its respective furuba one.

Sorry some of the characters don't really interact (most notably. Ayame & Haru but their personalities fit their respective characters so you'll have to suspend your disbelief in that regards but I'll try to make this fun/entertaining and keep it in character as much as I can without ruining the parallel story line ^^;)

Other than that I think Haru & Kisa fit the title roles :P the play is PG- 13 (so fitting lol)

Gah I hate long disclaimers and this is the last one : Fruits Basket belongs to Natsuki Takaya and Hakusensha and Romeo & Juliet was written by William Shakespear.

Nyaaa and for those who care for Haru/Kisa here's a CG from Hana to Yume colored by my friend Kit-chan & wallpaper by Rane (hugs) : http://www.angelfire.com/anime2/Ohimesama/Fruitsdj/haruxkisaWALLPAPER.jpg

~~~Prologue~~~

Shigure:

(The narrator takes a few seconds to momentarily adjust his reading glasses as he prepares to recite one of English literature well known opening prologue…err.. never mind this is his spin on Bill Shakespear's opening):



Our story takes place in fair Tokyo, home of strawberry pockies, Tokyo tower,

J-rock, and any other lovely authentic Japanese things your heart can think off.

Here thus reside two households both equal in pride and fortune torn apart by a feud many generations old…so old that no one really recalls what started it :x

Nevertheless the house of Sohma Neko and Sohma Nezumi both bound by blood but divided by hate and contempt have fought many bloody battles. Battles so fierce they'd give Dragon Ball Z's battle of the week a run for its money.

From these two Clans a pair of star-crossed lovers met, fell in love and with their death buried their family's eternal and rather pointless feud….or so the story goes ~_^



(Narrator at this point removes his glasses to wipe off his eyes now stained with sorrowful tears for his wonderfully dramatic deliverance of the story's introduction)



Shigure: Well without further ado lets begin the story.





(ah! I'm evil this is just the prologue; the first chapter will be out next week after my final and it will be longer as I do hate short chapters as all my friends well know :P) gomen!
