Next chapter! I do not own Fruits Basket or the characters.
"I hate walking!" Hiro shouted after about an hour or so of walking to nowhere in particular. He had been okay at first, at the thought of going home but now he was getting mad. "We are going to die out here!" he said, not in a panicing state, just trying to think of something new to say.
"STOP COMPLAINING!" Kyo shouted at him. "IF YOU HATE WALKING SO MUCH HOW ABOUT I THROW YOU SO WE CAN SEE IF YOU CAN FLY?!" Hiro frowned but he was too tired to pick a fight. He crossed his arms and sighed. Kyo turned away from him and kept walking in silence. If they had been at home this one fight would have somehow gotten everysingle one of them envolved in the end somehow, but they were all too tired to do anything.
Soon they came to a river that didn't look like there was anyway to get across. Most of them had no problem with the idea of swimming, but Kyo was not to keen on the idea. So they found a way to cross by carrying a gigantic log over and making it a bridge.
"Are you sure we won't fall?" Ritsu asked nervously. Momiji said, "Its fine Ritsu, no one is going to fall i-"
SPLASH
A large splash came from the river and Momiji and Ritsu turned to look. Haru was standing on the other side of the bank with Hiro and Yuki was standing on the same side of them, trying hard not to laugh. Which could only mean one thing. Kyo had fallen in.
Kyo came up and whirled to look at Yuki. "What are YOU laughing at, huh?"
"Oh, nothing. Nothing at all." Yuki said, stepping onto the log and crossing it with apparent ease. "Just the wet and badtempered cat that just fell into the river after not wanting to swim."
"I will kill you!" Kyo shouted, grabbing hold of the log and pulling himself up. He practically ran across the log as he charged at Yuki and Yuki got ready to fight, but Haru held Kyo back.
"Guys we don't have time for this. Save it until we're home."
Kyo and Yuki stared at each other in silence as Momiji and Ritsu crossed over to them. Finally both started walking forward, home in mind.
The next hour was very messy. Momiji fell into a pile of mud, Hiro got whacked in the face by a very angry branch, Ritsu had cuts and bruises all over his body, due to his constant tripping and falling. Kyo finally cracked a smile when Yuki tripped too, falling into Haru and bringing them both down.
But after a long time of walking, and an even longer time of arguing the forest finally began to get slimmer: the trees started disapearing and they didn't see as much wildlife.
Then they heard the sound they had been waiting for, the sound of city life. Hiro ran towards the sound at the speed of light and the others followed behind. Then they stopped. Dead in front of them, was their city, their home.
But not the end of their problems. Only a few chapters left! Sad day.
