Hi again everybody, sorry that this is such a short chapter, but I have had a couple of things going on that took up a lot of time. (and I still didn't get to write my history essay) I am really happy though, because I got 2 reviews and 2 alerts. (it sort of shocked me) So I want to dedicate the chapter (crappy as it is) to them.

Disclaimer: I am no closer to owning Fruits Basket than I was when I put this up.

The Plot Thickens

'OK,' Kyo thought to himself during his solitude lunch, 'I just need to ask Haru to fight me and since its Haru he probably will. Still maybe I should make a backup plan, just in case that damned rat does pull something off.

What would be a good thing to do? Maybe I could get some paint and graffiti the locker rooms. On the other hand, I could break the computers in the computer lab. On the safe side, I think I'll do it all. Now I just need to get started, because I need to start the fight at the end of lunch.'

After his epiphany, Kyo set off to the art room to steal a few cans of paint; then he proceeded to the gym locker room. 'Now what should I paint?' Contemplating for a few moments, he started to write in big colorful letters YUKI SOHMA IS THE MOST ANNOYING PERSON IN THE ENTIRE STUDENT BODY AND DESERVES TO HAVE ANY 'GUY' HE CHOOSES!

'I think that is enough for the graffiti, so now on to the computer lab. Maybe I should set up a virus linking to all of the computers, including the principal's. I might not even need to fight Haru after this.' He finally made it to the computer lab, to find the door was locked!

Well as this was for a good cause and after deciding he needed to get into as much trouble as possible Kyo broke down the door. After stepping over the remains of the poor door, he headed straight towards the main computer and started uploading a few viruses that would soon spread towards each computer that is hooked to the school's mainframe.

As he admired his fine work, he went off in search for Haru. 'I've been looking forward to this fight all day, and I don't even need it. Oh well I just can't wait to see the look on Akito's face when his precious rat failed to beat me. Before I find Haru maybe I should see if the prince is having any luck.'

Yuki was walking around annoyed as he was going over his latest failed attempt. (Flashback time peoples)

The favored prince walked out of the classroom with a new goal in hand and he headed straight towards the garden club. To his delight, he was the only person there with all of the beautiful flowers and ripened fruit and vegetables.

He quickly grabbed the hose and started over flowing the pots filled with water, drowning the poor fruit and vegetables. As the water was getting to the point where the floor was getting damp, a lone sophomore came in surprised.

"Oh Sohma-san," she said startled, "I didn't know you would be in here. You see my job is to come in and water the plants during my free block, but I see you are doing it."

"Oh um…"Yuki said rather quickly, "I just thought I could help." "That's very sweet of you," she replied as she walked over towards him, "but you know you could be in a lot of trouble, this room is after all only for members of the garden club."

"Then I guess you'll have to report me," Yuki told her attempting to sound guilty, as he hoped to Akito that she would report him so he could get into trouble. "Now why would I want the famous prince to get in trouble?" she asked sweetly. "What are you going to give me so I don't tell?"

"You know I think you're right it is against school rules for people outside the garden club to be watering the plants so I'll be going." Yuki told the girl quickly and quickly made his exit.

'I would rather lose than have to attempt to keep her quiet,' Yuki thought as he contemplated what else he could do to make the school miserable. 'Maybe I should ask Haru for help, he seems to get into trouble a lot.'

As Yuki headed to the hall Haru's class is in he bumped into Kyo. 'Great,' they though simultaneously as they both rubbed their aching heads. "How are you doing, rat?" Kyo asked. "This is surely too hard for you."

"Not at all," Yuki replied casually, as an idea struck him, if he and Kyo fought then they would get into an equal amount of trouble. "You know, I think we should settle this here and now and fight."

"You're … ," Kyo started as he repeated the words in his head, realizing the catch. "I get it! You are trying to make sure we get into the same trouble. Then neither of us would win, which benefits you perfectly. Well too bad rat boy, I am about to push all the crap I have done over the top and there is noting you can do."

With that Kyo started to quicken his pace as he headed toward Haru's classroom to make his troublesome finale. Yuki was left to just stare in the direction Kyo was going. 'I was sure that would work. Where did he go?'

As Yuki saw Kyo heading exactly, where he was headed in the first place, he realized what Kyo was planning. 'Oh crap he is ahead of me I must follow. Maybe if I join the fight I will get into just as much trouble.

So what did ya'll think, do you like it or hate it? well if you want review and I'll know if I should hurry to put up the next chapter. Although I will probably have another chapter up by tomorrow or Thursday at the latest.
