Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN FRUITS BASKET!
Authors Note: I don't doubt ppl will read what I'm saying. If you do, great! This is like, my fourth fic. But my first fic in Fruits Basket. I really don't like writing stories in the same kind of show. Enjoy! This just popped right out of my mind. It's kinda confusing, but bear with me!
Chapter 1 – Betrayal
A girl with long light brown hair that reached to waist and with beautiful green emerald eyes was sitting against the tree, heavily panting. Her clothes were soaked and her clothes were dirty and slightly ripped. In front of her, was a beautiful lake, that was connected to a large river, and the tree shaded her from the sunlight. Her eyes immediately glared at the lake, which she was found a year ago, and remember what happened, her own friends betrayed her and nearly killed her.
But a ghostly smile was plastered on her lips, "Boy, would I like to see them again," She said in a sweet but deadly tone. Her wrists were red and visible bruises were on her arm and legs. She just escaped from a place where she was found. Instead of them taking care of her, they tortured her for a year. She was later drifting to a different place and ended where she is now. She's now 17.
"What'll I do now?" Tohru asked herself as she stared up into the sky. "It's their entire fault that I'm like this," Tohru said, her voice full of venom. She was planning revenge ever since she was found. She remembered what clearly happened. Tohru was in deep thought and didn't see a person in front of her.
Tohru looked up and saw a girl, who looked the same age as herself. "You okay?" the girl asked. Tohru slightly nodded. "I guess you were beaten up from the looks of it. I'm Kiara Hakaru," Kiara introduced. She had blonde hair that was tied up in a high ponytail with some hair locks fell to the side of her face.
"Tohru Honda. Just call me Tohru,"
"And call me Kiara," she said as she sat down next to her. "So, what happened?" Kiara asked, trying to be polite and not nosy. Tohru paused for a moment before talking.
Flashback
16 year old Tohru was running as fast as she could. She was told by Shigure that the whole gang, excluding Uo and Hanajima, was waiting for her at the park, in the deep forest. When she saw the view of everybody, she apologized quickly while bowing, "S-sorry, for keeping you all," She looked up and saw the sad expression on everyone's face. She walked towards Kyo and Yuki, who were looking at a river, far from the group.
"Kyo-kun? Yuki-kun?" They didn't answer. After a while, they finally faced her. Kyo quickly put Tohru's arms behind her and tied it tight with a rope and tied her legs together. She fell behind, but Yuki caught her and put sleeping and poison chemical in her mouth.
Everyone, except the boys were crying. Yuki walked over to the river with Tohru in his arms. Kisa and Momiji were crying and tried to stop Yuki, but Hiro and Haru held them back. They finally gave up and sank to the ground. Yuki looked at Tohru one more. Her eyes were drooping. He dropped her to the river, her body drifted onto the fast current and was soon gone. She only saw the faces of the everyone who was there before shutting her eyes. Her head hit a rock and soon blood was on the river. They saw blood on where Tohru was.
End of Flashback
Tohru never cried on telling the story. But Kiara looked like she was about to cry but held back the tears. It had been a year since that accident occurred. Kiara stood up and yelled, "Those jerks! And you were friends for so long! How can they do that!" Tohru didn't answer but look blankly at the lake. "I've got an idea, Tohru. Why don't you come back to my place and clean you up and fix your bruises?" Tohru nodded, but Kiara continued, "After that, why don't I fix you an outfit? I'm sure you want revenge on them. Let's 'visit' them with your new look and personality,"
Tohru smirked, she liked that idea and stood up, "That's a great idea! Let's go back to your place. I plan to gather information on them when we're there. So then I can plan everything," It was Kiara's time to smirk.
"Let's go and clean your bruises up," They left and entered a small town. Everyone was pretty friendly but some gave weird looks to Tohru, "Just mind them,"
Yuki's Dream
He was looking at his surroundings; it was the same place where he was when he dropped Tohru on to the river. He walked towards the river but stopped halfway and backed away. In front of him, was Tohru.
She was standing on top of the river where she was dropped. Wrapped around her body was a white silk gown that covered her arms and body. Tohru was staring at him. She opened her mouth but nothing came out. He looked carefully at what she was saying, Why? She kept on repeating it but no words were found, just her mouth moving. Pink petals swirled around her and there was a strong wind. Tohru's hair flew everywhere and more petals surrounded her.
Yuki put his arms in front of him, but the wind pushed him back. He looked and saw that Tohru was crying now. There was a stronger wind that pushed him of the ground. He heard her voice once more, "Why?"
End of Yuki's Dream
Yuki sat up in the middle of the night, panting heavily. Seat trickled down his face. He put a hand to his face. "What a nightmare," he muttered to himself. He remembered his dream. A flash back image of Tohru in his dream appeared in his mind and heard her voice again,
"Why?"
Yuki shook off the thoughts and lay back down. But for a reason, he couldn't sleep. His violet eyes stared at the ceiling. A thought entered his mind, 'Tohru,' No one ever mentioned her name for a long time now. He remembered that he and Kyo got bad bruises of when Hanajima and Uo heard about that Tohru was missing.
Flashback
"Yo! Prince Charming! Where's Tohru?" Uo asked coolly. She and Hanajima just arrived of when Tohru's blood scattered around the river. They walked towards the two and gave weird looks to Kisa and Momiji, who were crying. They saw blood in the river. "Where's Tohru?" she asked again, but now her voice was now full of panic.
"She's gone," Those were the only words that he said before Uo and Hanajima glared at them and had beaten him and Kyo into a bloody pulp.
End of Flashback
The Sohma household was now quiet. Kyo and Yuki hardly argued anymore. It was never the same lively place. Everyone moved on. But secretly, they didn't. Kisa would cry to herself to sleep. Momiji cried every time someone mentioned Tohru; he was never the same hyper boy anymore. He'd force himself to be hyper. Kyo hardly paid attention to anyone, Yuki was cold, Haru tried to cheer everyone up but Hiro was the same. He'd be the only to cheer Kisa up.
A year later
A girl with light brown hair and a girl with blonde hair that was tied up was walking towards the cemetery. They were wearing a cloak that covered their outfits and face. A girl found her grave under a tree and further away from the others. She bent down and read,
Tohru Honda. The only girl with a nice and cheery personality that would make anyone smile. She was the flower of this town. But disappeared. If there was a breeze and petals would swirl in the air, it was Tohru Honda. May she rest in peace.
She smirked, "What do you think, Kiara? Pretty lame. So they assumed I'm dead after two years?"
"Flower? What the?"
"I was, like, the only 'flower' in the Sohma household. When I 'blossomed' the whole Sohma household practically changed," She explained as she crossed her arms. They saw that pink roses were placed in front of the grave. They heard footsteps coming towards them. They hid behind the tree and listened.
"Onee-chan, please come back," Kisa's voice was heard. Tohru's eyebrows raised in surprise.
"Ugh, Kisa, she's dead. Get over it,"
"How could you be so mean, Hiro-chan!" Kisa yelled in a soft but angry voice. Tears formed her eyes.
"Gomen, Kisa."
"Tohru-chan! Please forgive us for what we did," came Momiji voice. Tohru can hear that the two were crying so hard. "We miss you so much!"
"Onee-chan, please come back," Kisa repeated, her voice cracked as more tears fell. They heard Kisa stood up and was now running away along, with Momiji, who was crying their hearts out.
"Stupid woman, look what you did to Kisa," Hiro spat to the grave before running after Kisa. Tohru smirked and came out of the place she was in.
"I'm glad I did," Tohru said. They heard someone approaching. Rolling her eyes, she went up a tree and watched. It was a teenage boy, her age. He looked familiar. 'Yuki?'
He kneeled down and put a rose in front of the grave and prayed. After he was done, he stood up and stared at the grave. "Gomen, Honda-san. I didn't mean to kill you," He said to himself.
"Things are getting interesting, Tohru," Kiara whispered quietly. Tohru nodded.
"Watch this," Tohru said to Kiara. She jumped down the tree, skillfully, suprising Yuki. The cloak covered her face.
"Who are you?" Yuki asked.
"I'm a friend of hers,"
'That voice,' Yuki thought. He tried to look closer, but the cloak covered her face entirely.
"Do you miss her?"
Yuki answered, "…Yes."
"A lot of people miss her, huh?"
"Yeah,"
"You said you missed her, right? Do you regret killing her?" Tohru asked again. Yuki got confused. How'd she know that Yuki 'killed' her?
"What are you saying? If I miss her, I wouldn't kill her,"
"Well that's different. Cause you did kill her, right? Then if you'd miss her, why did you try and kill her?" Tohru asked as she ignored him and continued asking questions to make him feel guilty.
"…..I can't tell you that,"
"That isn't enough," Tohru said. She removed her cloak and smirked as Yuki's eyes widened and gape at her. Yuki couldn't say anything anymore.
She then asked sarcastically with a sarcastic smile,
"Miss me?"
