A/N: Yay! I finally started on my newest Furuba! I promise it will have a lot of twists, and no characters will be OCC. Shigure will be perverted as always, Kyo will be snappy and Yuki will be...Prince Yuki XD. I only have one OC in here. Her name is Ariji Sohma *hint hint*.

Disclaimer: I sadly do not own Fruits Basket. I only own the plot and Ariji.


"I have to get away from here, I have to!" she thought desperately, bare feet slapping against the soggy, muddy ground and branches brutally scratching her face. She didn't care. The only thought on her mind was to run from this horrible place, and never return. She hated the houses, she hated the people, she especially loathed the God.

She was approaching the wall that encased the Sohma Main House. Without thinking twice, she jumped over it, landed on the road with an "Oomph", and took off.

"You think you can escape that easily? If it was that difficult, why hadn't you run before?" the horrid voice pierced her brain suddenly, "I assure you, my dear, dear Ariji: you will always return to your lord, master, and God!"

She let out a final shrieak, collected the last of her fading energy, and collapsed on the ground, sobbing.

The world became dark.


A/N: sorry it was so short. I know I'll update soon, but this is a very nice beginning, don't you think? and a cliffie, too. Remember:
