Htaed: Okay, so this is my first Fruits Basket story, and I, decided to make my own curse...so yeah, you'll find out what it is in a bit...

Yami: Wow, that was so amazingly descriptive.

Htaed: Quiet, you. Oh, yeah. Everyone, meet my muses Yami and Hakiri . They popped out of nowhere into my room today, so here they are. Yami is a chibi angel with black wings who sits on my left shoulder (He's a guy). Hakiri is another chibi angel with white wings who sits on my right shoulder (she's a girl). They also tend to finish each other's sentances cause they're twins...I think...

Hakiri: Anyway, on with the story-

Yami:-and Htaed-chan doesn't own Fruits Basket.

Htaed: Stop calling me that! Only Hakiri can call me that!

Yami: (sniffles) Then what can I call you?

Htaed: Uh..Ummm...Okay, fine call me Htaed-chan. (grumbling and muttering under her breath about chibi angels who are too cute for their own good.)


"No. I refuse to wear a skirt."

"But Haru-chaaaan! We have to wear it!"

"I don't care if you have to wear it! Skirts and me do NOT mix!"

Haru scowled at the other girls who were trying to force her into wearing the girls' uniform for their school. She sighed.

"Please don't call me Haru-chan, Chisame."

"I'll stop calling you Haru-chan when you start calling me Chiu, or at least Chi."

"Fine. Chiu. Happy?"

"No! You have to always call me that!"

Koharu sighed again.

"Do I have to?"

"Come on, Chiu, leave the stupid lizard alone."

"Hey! You're a lizard too, Ren! And I spew fire, so you better watch out!"

"Whatever."

Sayura, supposedly the most dignified of the group, sighed.

"If Haru wants to be a tomboy and wear the guy's uniform, let her be."

She turned back to her book, muttering something about baka lizards who don't know when to shut up.

Koharu, Haru for short, her twin sister Kakurenbo, Ren for short, Chisame (Chiu, or Chi, as you may already know), and Sayura had been best friends for as long as any of them could remember. Currently, all of them except Haru were wearing the girls' uniform for the new school they were now attending. Haru was wearing the boys' uniform, with the jacket open, and the sleeves rolled up to show her gloves that were identical to Kakashi's from Naruto. She also sported her many earrings and other jewelery, as did Ren. Ren was wearing the girls' uniform, but with some alterations. Namely, she had added various rips, clips, and other acessories. The others were wearing the girls' uniform as normal. ((AN: Again, for everyone's appearance, see CHARACTER PROFILES on my profiles.))

Chisame glanced at the clock.

"OMIGOD!! You guys, we have to go, like NOW!!"

The others looked up at the clock.

"OMIGOD!! HURRY HURRY, LET'S GO!! MOVE IT MOVE IT!!"

They all rushed out the door, and started walking to the school.


As the girls neared the end of their street, they heard yelling. Chisame cocked her head to one side, listening.

"Sounds like two different guys...And there's a girl who sounds like she's trying to calm them down."

Haru glared at Chiu, who was looking smug.

"Show-off."

Sayura looked at all of them.

"Wanna go see what it is? We have time."

"Didn't seem like it, the way you were rushing us. Whatever, might as well, since it's on our way."

As the girls rounded the corner they could hear someone yelling something about, 'ya damn rat' and someone else replying 'stupid cat'.

They come completely around the corner, only to have Haru bump into a guy with orange hair, Chisame crash into a guy with purple hair, Ren, who wasn't looking where she was going, crashed into a guy with black and white hair. There was a huge -BOOM- and, a large puff of multicoloured smoke, white, black, green, orange and purple. Sayura, and the other two people struggled to clear it away before any passers-by noticed it. When it was cleared, it revealed...

An elegant black European dragon, about the size of a small cat, sitting with its long tail curled around its feet looking about as puzzeled as a dragon can look.

A dark green python about three metres long, looking as confused as a snake can look, which is about the same as normal.

A large timber wolf looking at the other two with very obvious confusion.

A orange cat looking, if possible, pissed and confused at the same time, sitting in a pile of clothes.

A cow stood on the outside of this little cluster of...animals, looking as shocked as a cow can get (which is not much), a pile of clothes lying off to the side of him.

Finally, a small rat sat in the middle of it all, looking the most confused out of all of them, and oddly enough, he was the only one who looked remotely frightened, also sitting in the middle of a pile of clothes.

As the other girl picked up the rat, Sayura spoke what it was obvious all of them were thinking.

"Well...This is both interesting, confusing, and frightening at the same time."


Htaed: Yeah, I know, it's really short. Hopefully the next one will be longer.
