Thank you and enjoy… bows


"Right everyone board the bus! And no pushing please, try and act with at least the slightest bit of maturity." Mayuko was swinging her arm in a circular motion infront of the large school bus motioning for the buzzing & bickering students to start boarding, and so they did.

Among the crowd of about 26 youths was everyone's favourite little onigiri Honda Tohru, accompanied by her two best friends; the ex-gang member Uotani Arisa and the mysterious physic Hanajima Saki. Others joining them on their adventure were: Sohma Kyo – the short tempered, carrot top, cat of the Chinese Zodiac. Sohma Yuki – the charming, handsome rat of the zodiac. Sohma Hatsuharu – the ox of the zodiac complete with split personality known as his white side and black side. And finally Sohma Momiji – hyperactive, friendly but above all cute, rabbit of the zodiac.

"Hey, hey! Orangey! So you did decide to come!" Arisa greeted the young cat by smacking him around the back of his head.

"Of course I did, damn yankee!" Kyo slouched in the back seat of the bus with both arms folded tightly across his chest.

All students took their seats as the bus stuttered and wheezed but eventually began running smoothly through the busy towns streets. They were on their way to a ski resort up in the mountains for a school trip which was open to all senior members of their school. There were only a few spaces viable so they were all lucky to be seated where they were now.

"This is going to be so much fun, isn't it?" Tohru's eyes danced about as she daydreamed of all the wonderful memories they would make together on their trip. "I'm so excited!" the onigiri beamed.

"Yes we are going to have a wonderful time in the mountains," the psychic replied in her usual monotone voice, "as long as our little Tohru is happy." She embraced her smaller, delicate friend who smiled happily in return.

"This will certainly be a trip to remember I'm sure." The prince smiled his princely smile causing members or the Sohma Yuki fanclub watching from the other end of the bus, to melt inside as they all sighed their love struck sighs.

The little blonde rabbit began rummaging vigorously through his bag then reappeared moments later holding a variety of brightly coloured lollypops, "Anyone want one?"

"Sure." The black and white haired boy replied lifting one from the pile and inserting it into his mouth, then went back to staring blankly out of the window at the passing trees and bushes which looked like one simultaneous blur of green.

"How about Tohru-kun?"

"Eh? Oh yes, thank you Momiji-kun." Tohru lifted a red lolly from the pile and smiled gratefully at rabbit.


Tohru could feel her body being gently swayed back and fourth as she hesitantly opened her eyes to revel her tall blonde friend smiling down at her.

"Hey Tohru…you awake? Check this out."

Tohru snapped her eyes open fully as she started out the window where her friend was pointing. As far as her eyes could see, there was a neatly laid out blanket of silky pure white snow. Her eyes glistened at the sight much the same as the snow glistened in the sleek rays of sun shining down upon the land.

"Wow…it's beautiful!"

"It certainly is…" Yuki agreed as he watched Tohru smiling so brightly. She turned to face him, her features looked so soft and warm. He soon found himself smiling lovingly back at her. "…very beautiful."

Tohru looked down at her lap trying to hide her now tinted pink cheeks. What was it about that smile that made her stomach feel like it was filled with fluttering butterflies?

Suddenly the bus jolted to the side sending most of its passengers almost to the floor.

"Hey! What the hell was that?!" An angry Kyo yelled up the bus expecting an explanation, when the bus suddenly swayed again only more violently causing a few students to actually fall from their seats onto the narrow isle.

Screams could be heard from all round the bus as it continued to sway from side to side. Distressed teenagers were clinging to their chairs in fear of being flung across the bus or being sent smashing through a window.

"Hold on!" Everyone could hear the bus driver call as he fought furiously with the steering wheel to regain control.

"What the hell is going on!?" Kyo demanded even louder as he hung onto a metal support pole at the back of the swaying bus.

"Ahhhh!" One girl screeched as she was thrown over the back of her chair and landed ontop Momiji causing a cloud of white smoke to appear beneath her.

"Damnit." Haru who was seated becide where his cousin had previousaly been, grabbed his now in the form of a rabbit cousin, and tried to hide him under his jacket holding him tightly against his chest so he would not be flung away, while keeping a firm grip on the chair infront of him so he would not be sent flying himself.

Luckily, through everything that was happening, it didn't look like anybody had noticed the cloud of smoke, not even the girl beside him who was now franticly gripping her chair with all her might.

The bus continued to sway violently from side to side. "Just hold on a bit longer!" They heard the bus driver call down to them again, and after a few more bumps and skids, the bus eventually came to sudden halt as it scraped along the mountain side causing a slight crash.

All the screaming stopped and was replaced with heavy breathing and the odd one or two girls crying. Haru quickly threw the small yellow rabbit behind him into the backseat where he could transform and get dressed without anyone noticing.

"Is everyone okay?" Yuki asked his few friends in the surrounding seats beside him.

Kyo sat up rubbing his head from the fallen position he had taken on the floor, "Dammit…I think I hit my head off something." He mumbled to himself rubbing a newly formed purpley greenish bump on his forehead.

"oww…" Tohru moaned quietly to herself holding her cheek.

"Honda-san, did you get hurt?" Yuki's voice was full of concern as he reached out towards the small chocolate brown haired girl.
Tohru removed her hand from her cheek to revel three long bloody gashes reaching down her right cheek.

"I think somebody cut me…"

"Alright who was it!? Who dared to harm our little Tohru!?" Uo was standing with one foot hoisted up onto her seat, threatening everyone in the bus with her fist in the air, while Hana had both arms wrapped tightly round Tohru in a comforting fashion.

"Eh!? U-Uo-chan I'm okay really, you don't need to-"

"Ya' know, it was probably one of you two with you're nails, yankee." Kyo remarked, still holding his bruised forehead.

"Shut up Orang-!"

"That's enough Uotani-san! Please sit down and remain silent!" Mayuko sounded seriously stressed out trying to keep things under control, "Now, anybody who is injured or hurt please raise your hand! Everyone else, please stay seated for the time being!"


Other than a few bumps and bruises, or a few cuts here and there, no one was seriously injured but the bus had taken on quite a bit of damage and was going to take some time to be repaired.

"Are you sure you're okay now Honda-san?"

"Oh yes, I'm fine now…thank you for you're concern."

Everyone was seated at the road side against the mountain. It was snowing lightly and the temperatures were far below freezing. Each student was wrapped in coats and scarf's trying to keep in their body heat, and a few even took out extra blankets which they shared with others for extra warmth. Tohru began to wonder how it would feel to be wrapped in Yuki's arms sharing a blanket together while the snow fell softly all around them. She could feel her lips curving into a slight smile at the thought but quickly shook it off "That's not going to be happening any time soon because of the curse, no point in thinking about it…" But her new thoughts were quickly interrupted by the sound of girls laughing and talking.

"Wow so it really was sabotage?"

"Yeah. Hey did you guys hear?" The girl was now talking to the three best friends and four Sohma's who were all wrapped up warmly in their coats and scarfs, sitting against the cold white mountain.

"Hear what?" Uo asked intrigued by what she had heard so far.

"The bus skidding about like that wasn't just an accident. Someone poured hot water all down that trail so the ice would freeze over making it nearly impossible to drive down there without causing an accident."

"What?!" Uo screamed jumping to her feet, "Who would want to do that to a bus full of kids?!"

"I could tell you that…" A new voice joined the conversation and everyone turned to see Motoko the president of the Yuki fanclub standing over them with her arms folded and two other girls standing behind her. Each had a smirk planted widely across their face, "…if you want of course."

"I wouldn't believe it, coming from you." Uo folded her arms in a disapproving manner.

The three girls glared back at Uo and were getting ready to throw back remarks of their own until…

"Could you tell us what happened please?" Yuki asked making the three girls forget completely about Uo, and Tohru who was sitting a little too close to Yuki for their liking.

"O-Oh yes! Of course, Yuki-san! Well you see there's this rumour that's been going round about a man who was arrested and locked in jail for murdering his own mother and sister, and committed attempted murder many other times. Well, he was locked in a prison not too far from here and managed to break out one night and headed for these very mountains where he hid and began to wait for new prey to pass by."

"So you're trying to tell me that some crazy psychopath murderer caused what just happened and is now out to kill each one of us as his new pray." Kyo said with a tone of sarcasm in his voice.

"Well I didn't say you had to believe it! Just thought id give you a bit of warning." Her last sentence was aimed directly at Tohru who tried not to let them know she noticed.

"Well we're out of here. Enjoy you're last few peaceful days together!" Motoko said in a taunting voice as she and the two other girls walked off.

"Oh, what a fighting story! Are you okay Tohru, did it scare you?" Momiji asked grabbing Tohru's hand reassuringly. She just smiled back and let a few giggles escape her lips, though anyone could tell from her manner, she was a little frightened by the horror story.

"Well, this is going to be an interesting week." Haru said as everyone was called back to the now repaired bus so they could continue their journey to the Ski Resort


"Yayy!! We're here! We're here!" Momiji shouted excitedly, jumping up and down on his seat as the bus pulled up the last trail leading to the long awaited ski resort. Cheers were heard all through the bus as it came to a slow rolling stop.


So watchya think?? Remember to review and tell me, and I will try to update as often as possible with biggg long chappies .

And i know it's not very frightening so far but just wait a few chapters and it should get nice n' gory evil laugh and i may throw in a few character deaths, I havent decided whether everyone's gonna survive or not yet.
