My name is Farah, I'm 16 years old and I carry a curse. I figured I would tell you a bit about myself before I started my new life. When I was born, I was cursed as a werewolf, my grandfather carried it before me but he passed away. This is why my hair is naturally white with purple highlights in it, it's a factor from it. I can usually control it, unless I get really mad, but I never get mad, I'm always so calm, such a positive person. But there is one day of the year where I have no power over my transformation, the night of the full moon. Before my grandfather passed, he passed down a special made bracelet to help control my true form from happening on the full moon, however I still do transform just a bit. When I was a kid, I never made friends, they all laughed at me for my hair and always left me out during playtime. I kept to myself, I stayed hidden. My karate master took me in after the incident with my parents and he trained me. He helped me control my curse better, he became a father figure for me. But the day I turned 16 was the day he thought I should start my life new, so here I am in this small town in Japan looking up at the new high school I am attending, Kaibara High School. My hair was pulled back in a bow, the school uniform was rather cute, dark blue, long sleves with a matching skirt, white little bow in the chest area, wearing some high black socks and shoes. I turned my purple eyes at the sky and smiled, mom would be proud. I clenched my backpack and walked in. Now before anything begins I am already aware of several things before I moved here, I knew there were other kids with a curse that no one else knows except a girl who lived with them. Master told me, The Sohma curse. They all turned into zodiac animals whenever they were either hugged by the opposite sex or under a great deal of stress. Now it wouldn't affect them at all if I hugged them considering I am cursed as well. Luckily for me I don't have to worry about that sort of thing although if my bracelet came off during the full moon or if I became angry, well things wouldn't be so pretty. My full form is scary, monster like actually, makes people scream and just shiver in fear and run, everyone was so afraid of me as a child cause they knew. But no one knew of it here, that's why master wanted me to come so I could have a life. I began walking to my home room class, meanwhile people were beginning to stare at my hair and whispering to each other. "Hey" I looked up to see this guy, around my age, with white and black hair look at me. He was leaned up against the wall with his arms crossing over. Haru Sohma…I thought to myself, born in the year of the ox. "Oh, hello" I said with a bright smile. He looked at me with curiosity, especially at my hair. "Your hair, it's different. You know those stupid school council will be all over you" He said with a smirk. "Oh well I can't help it, it's my natural hair color," I said with a smile. His eyes widened and then narrowed, "hmmmm" he said glancing off in the distance. "I'm Haru Sohma," He said after a minute, looking back at me with a smile. "Oh, it's nice to meet you, my name is Farah," I said bowing. "HARU HARU! COME ON HARU WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR CLASS" I straightened up and turned to see this adorable little boy with blonde hair and auburn eyes running. He was wearing the girl's uniform though… 'uhhhhhhhh' I said. He came to a halt in front of Haru and smiled so big, "Come on Haru," he said tugging on his sleeve. Then the boy turned around and saw me, "Oh hi! I'm Momiji Sohma! Who are you? Awwww Haru made a friend," Momiji said in a sing songy voice. Haru gave Momiji a dirty look for a split second and then just sighed and went back to staring off in space, I smiled, "Hi my name is Farah, it is very nice to meet you," I said with my eyes closed and a big smile on my face. Momiji was rather adorable I just wanted to give him the biggest hug ever. The bell rang then, alerting everyone that they should get to class soon. "OH, that's the bell! We should get going, right Haru?" Momiji said happily. Haru nodded. "Well it was really nice to meet you! I hope to see you around," Momiji waved as he and Haru walked off. I smiled and went back to walking towards my homeroom.
Chapter 2 (Haru POV)
As I was walking to homeroom with Momiji I couldn't help but to think of that girl I just met. Her hair color was so different and she said it was her natural, did that mean she was similar to us? Did she have a curse like us? Or is she just unique? These thoughts flooded my mind as we walked and Momiji was mumbling on about his summer, I shoved my hands in my pockets and remained deep in thought about this girl. "Haru? Are you even listening?" Momiji broke into my thoughts. "what?" I said confused. "Are you too busy daydreaming about Farah? I mean she is pretty cute!" Momiji teased. I gave him a look and rolled my eyes. "It's not like that," I said quietly. We arrived at our homeroom and we took our seats. As class went on I began having those thoughts again about her, she was rather cute, and that smile was dazzling. I felt a small blush creep on my face and I immediately shook those thoughts off and tried to pay attention. 'It's hard to pay attention when the teacher is being so boring,' I thought to myself. Instead my thoughts went off somewhere to when I was a kid and I first met Yuki, how much I hated him. 'The ox is not a fool you stupid rat, I hate you, I hate you so much!' 'hmm? Are you a fool?' young Yuki said. 'No I am not a fool! I am not a fool!' Young Yuki smiled, 'I didn't think so.' I sighed, pushing myself back into reality. 'I just hope she's doing well in her homeroom,' I thought to myself looking out the window.
Chapter 3 (Farah's POV)
"Ah, yes, there she is," The teacher smiled at me as I walked in. All the students turned and stared at me, I could feel a blush sneak up on my face. I smiled, "Uh yes hello my name is Farah," I said shakily. I examined the classroom and the students and noticed 2 other Sohma's. Yuki and Kyo, Yuki sat there smiling, looking in deep thought, while Kyo looked irritated. I smiled to myself, I heard about these 2. I looked over and saw Tohru, she was looking at me smiling so big, 'She looks so sweet' I thought to myself. "Why don't you take the seat in front of Kyo," The teacher told me. I nodded, "Okay," I sat down and tried to ignore all the looks from everyone, I knew they were staring at my hair and I was trying to concentrate on the teacher. Meanwhile I could feel this cold look behind me, Kyo was staring at my hair too. I shivered. For once I would like to not be noticed by my hair, but I knew that was never going to happen, after all it has happened all my life, I should be used to it by now. 'You're just special Farah,' I heard my mother's voice. 'They're just jealous because you're so beautiful and special,' she smiled down at me. My eyes began to shake and I was trying to fight the tears that were beginning to emerge. I sighed and began to write down what the teacher lectured. The bell rang then after what felt like 3 hours. I gathered my things and began to walk out, I saw Tohru around the corner, talking to Yuki. "Can you believe we're going to have a full moon in 3 days," I heard Tohru said happily. My eyes widened, I had no idea the full moon was going to be here so soon, I grabbed my bracelet. Yuki looked past Tohru and saw me standing there gripping on to my bracelet. He and Tohru walked to me, "Oh Hello! My name is Tohru," Tohru smiled. "And I'm Yuki," He said softly. I looked up and smiled, my face expression changed, "Hello nice to meet you both, I'm Farah," I smiled. "Oh, it's so nice to meet you!" Tohru said excitedly. I nodded and smiled. "So Miss Farah, you just transferred here?" Yuki asked. I nodded, "Yes, I just moved here last week." I replied. "What the hell is going on?" A loud voice interrupted. I turned to see Kyo, it wasn't hard to miss him what with his orange hair. Yuki looked annoyed all of a sudden. "Oh hi Kyo, we were just talking to Farah since she's new here," Tohru smiled at him. Kyo looked at me, and I could tell he was trying not to stare at my hair. I sighed, "It was nice meeting you all but I better get to my next class," I smiled and walked away.
Chapter 4 (Tohru's POV)
Farah looked really nice, and she was really pretty too! Her hair was really unique with the purple swirled in with her white hair, and her purple eyes suited her hair perfectly, and she was so nice and happy. Although it was really concerning if that was her natural hair, cause the only time I knew of someone with weird natural colored hair they were cursed. I shook my head and smiled, pushing the thought away. 'No way, there's just no way' I thought. "Miss Honda, we should really get to our next class," Yuki smiled breaking me from my thoughts. I smiled back and took his hand making our way down the hallway. Me and Yuki have been dating for several months now, since the curse was broken he was actually able to be a human and physically touch someone from the opposite sex, of course he made no hesitation in asking me out, I mean I knew Kyo crushed on me too but he got over that within a few weeks when he realized I would not get over Yuki. That look Kyo gave Farah, I haven't seen that look in a long time, it made me smile
