Hey guys! This is my first story on here so I'm pretty excited. Enjoy! I do not own Fruits Basket, only my characters and story line.
Prologue
"Ayaka get away from here!" my mother said.
I rubbed my tired eyes. What was going on? I was in bed when I heard voices yelling at each other. Xander, who was about four years older than I. His father, Benjamin, was there too. As well as two armed me.
"Mom, where's Da-" I stopped when I saw my father's bloody body on the floor.
"Ayaka run!" my Mother cried desperately.
"You... You KILLED him!" I said looking at the men furiously.
I could feel the change coming, as always it was painful when it wasn't caused by a kiss. I was transforming out of pure anger. My brown hair turned into a reddish brown coat of fur. My once brown eyes flashed yellow. My clothes ripped as my body changed. I was wild. I was angry. And all I wanted was to tear those men's throats out.
"AYAKA STOP!" my mother's voice boomed.
I froze in my tracks and looked at my mother. Tears streamed down her heat shaped face. My mother was a beautiful woman. I was always told that I looked like her, but I knew better. She was far more radiant. To see her like this, it hurt.
"If you truly love your family you will run!" she said.
Benjamin glanced at the men. "What are you waiting for? Grab the girl!" he ordered.
The men advanced on me and I growled. "I'll come back for you Mom!" I said. "I'll get stronger!"
I ran out of our house, Benjamins thugs chasing me. The only thought in my head was of survival. I knew of only one place I could go, and unless I sprouted wings or gills it wasn't going to be easy. I had to find a way to get to Japan. There was a family there like mine, maybe they could help.

(Xander's POV)
I watched her leave, furrowing my brow. She couldn't run forever. I would find her. I would have her, and if she refused; she would die.
I know this is short but the next Chappie is already written! Thank you for taking the time to read this. Any criticism is appreciated.
