Ahh, time for chapter 2...

I'm not really all that fond of that chapter. I had to put it in to give some background information though...

Just so you know, I'm making Haru the same age as Yuki, Kyo, and Tohru. You'll see why in later chapters...

Also, sorry that it took so long to update! I planned on posting this chapter yesterday, but I was really busy. There was literally a riot at our school because of one of our teachers, and it was totally insane! So by the time I got home, I was dead tired. I took a little nap, and woke up at 10:45pm. But, I managed to find time today to update...so sorry for the delay:)

Yay! I have reviewers!!!

Thanks to all who reviewed!!! You guys are totally awesome!!!

Haru was startled as he saw Haruwa running towards him at full throttle. It could only mean one thing: she'd broken something else in her house. A moment later, she was standing beside him, laughing.

"What's so funny?" he asked curiously. Haruwa attempted to speak, but burst out in more laughter. Haru sighed, and rolled his eyes a little bit. At that, Haruwa breathed in deeply, and began telling him the tale of the alarm clock. Haru shook his head when she was finished. "Well then, I guess you beat your old record, the last one you threw out the window only made it to the Riy's front yard," he said jokingly. They both shared a small laugh, then began walking their daily route to school.

Whenever Haru was around Haruwa, he always felt more relaxed. Ever since they were tiny tots, they had been inseperable. They were so similar. People always said it was because, in the zodiac, the ox and the horse were close friends. They both ate from the same pasture, and ran in the same field. (Yes, that's right, Haruwa is posessed by the horse! I know what you must be thinking about how that's possible, since Rin is posessed by the horse...well, the reasoning behind this will be explained in another chapter!!! Until then, just go along with it :D) Together, they were the dynamic duo, Haru and Hari. That's why Haru was crushed when Haruwa moved in with the family doctor, Hatori. As a child, he used to think that Hatori was an evil doctor that would one day supress Haruwa's memories, and cause her to forget about him. He was overwhelmed with joy when he found out that Haruwa practically still lived at the Sohma mansion. Hatori was always busy, so little Hari was always sent there to be babysat.

'What are you thinking about?" Haruwa inquired, distracting Haru from his thoughts. "I'm just wondering why you're so short," he said, putting an arm around her shoulder. "I just seem short to you because you're so freakishly tall!" she said stubbornly. They both laughed a little. "So, what are you really thinking about?" she prodded. Haru couldn't answer her. He'd really been thinking about her brother, Kyo. She hadn't seen him since their mom died, around 7 years ago. Yet, since before New Year's, Haru had known his whereabouts. He swore to Hatori that he would never tell, though. Haru felt worse, because, at that very moment, he was pondering how he could somehow meet him again, and defeat him in a battle.

"I was...trying to figure out which school Yuki went too," Haru bluffed. He then realized this was a good thing. Yuki went to the same school as Kyo. If Haruwa told him where Yuki went to school, Haru could find a way to ambush Kyo when he least expected it. It was fool proof! "Hmm...last time I checked...he went to Kaibara High School, he's a sophmore there, just like us," she said, then gave him a suspiscious look. "Why, you aren't planning on stalking him or something, are you?" she asked cautiously. "For your information, I haven't stalked him since...that night!" he retorted. Haruwa giggled a little. "What?!?! It was Mardi Gras, and I was out of beads!" he said defensivley. This made her laugh even harder.

The two of them soon reached their destination, their small High School. Haruwa ran off to join some of her friends, leaving Haru alone momentarily. I'll be paying Kyo a little visit today... he thought to himself.

Yeah, this chapter is pretty boring...to me anyways. I'm going to put the 3rd up asap to make up for it though...Hopefully, you all aren't bored to death! Please review, and have faith in the next chapter!
