Okay guys! I urge you ALL to read the authors notes before and after the chapter in order to avoid questions that are essentially already answered.

Haruhi is replacing Rin as the Horse. I know who Rin is. I have read both Fruits basket and Ouran from beginning to end. She is the horse for two reasons:

1) I didn't want to make up a zodiac

2) Rin was honestly in the way of how I wanted this story to go. One of the pairings is Haruhi and Hatsuharu, but as you manga readers know, Rin was his love interest. I love Rin's character, but I didn't want to change her character in order to have these Haruhi x Hatsuharu moments. I could have changed the pairing, BUT I was honestly inspired to do this fic because of another story in this crossover category. The pairing intrigued me to the point of writing this.

I also want to address something else that I don't believe I've ever mentioned. I mixed the manga's and the anime's together for this story. EXAMPLES:

1)Akito is a girl [Manga]

2) Yuki getting whipped [Anime]

The timelines are screwy as well but the zodiac gathering for new years (the one where Yuki gets in trouble for) has not happen yet. Haruhi is still in her first year of Ouran,but I made references to future events that occured in the manga. I plan on creating new events to fill up her time at Ouran.
