I do not own Fruit Basket.

Enjoy!

Akito Sohma, the container of the being God, once again cursed his fate.

Why?

Why was he born with such a weak body?

Why was he forced to be male when his body was clearly female?

Why did everyone around him, treat him like he was going to break at any minute?

But worse of all.

Why did they all have suffer?

Why did he, the container of God have to suffer?

Generation after Generation, whoever held God, found themselves suffering.

Why?

Even though they were all part of an important part in history, they were the ones who suffered the most.

It was like they had all done something terrible wrong and their own reincarnations were suffering because of their actions but for the life of him, Akito couldn't remember what God could have done to cause such a cycle.

Why were God and the Animals forced to be Reincarnated over and over again in an endless loop?

Even though he had access to Gods memories, he couldn't help but feel a part of himself was cut off from the rest, as if it was sealed.

Never to be unlocked.

"Akito" a voice said, taking him out of his musing.

Akito turned around to find the Sohma family doctor.

Hatori Sohma, the container of the Dragon.

He couldn't help but wonder why he was here when the last time he checked, tomorrow was his weekly check-up.

Ch 14: Tears for the Forgotten Zodiac.

"Hatori" Akito said, wondering what the family doctor was doing here. "By the look on your family this is not about my health, unless you're here to give me the news that I'm expected to die in the next 24 hours"

"Akito" Hatori said, positioning himself besides the current family head.

"This isn't to do about your health. It's about God." He said, gaining Akito attention. "I just wanted to ask again, if you have any idea who would direct Killing intent towards you?" besides your own mother, was in the air.

"Is it that it? Like I told you before, I have no idea" Akito said, turning his head. "Perhaps I'm just hated because of how I look? You would believe how easy someone could kill a person because of petty jealousy" still bother by way someone would want to kill him, besides his own mother.

"…I see" Hatori said, before asking the question that was really on his mind. "Akito, have you ever felt like a part of you was closed off? That you didn't have complete access to God like you were lead to be believe?"

Akito turned towards Hatori.

"Hatori, what did you find?" He demanded to know, this question didn't just appear out of nowhere, something had to have happened.

"I found a Seal in Ritsu mind" Hatori confessed, getting a shocked look from Akito. "And it wasn't just in Ritsu mind, it was blocking a certain part of the Monkey's memories. I've checked Shigure too. He's got the exact same thing. I fear, that there is one not only in my mind but also your own"

And it was like something just fit into place in Akito mind.

# Inside Akito Mind#

God sat on his throne in his domain, thinking.

For thousands of years, the entity couldn't shake the feeling of wrongness in not only his hosts mind but also his own.

In each mind he was reborn in, the feeling followed so he couldn't just ignore it. He even tried to follow the feeling numerous of times before only to never locate its source because knowing that something was wrong with your mind and knowing exactly what was wrong with your mind were too different things.

A Seal.

Something that was so unbelievable and yet it was the only thing that fit, in why his own head felt wrong but the mere thought that someone was powerful enough to place a mind seal on someone like him, was unthinkable.

But the unthinkable was usually the most likely scenario.

God raised his palm and sent shockwave through the heavenly landscape of his hosts mind.

Something shimmered in front of him to reveal a giant seal, his eyes widened in shock at seeing that there was indeed a seal in his mind like the host of his Dragon said and coming out of the seal where hundreds of other chains, each chain went in one direction or the other, disappearing into the clouds.

God hovered over to the seal, studying it for a minute, he was surprised to feel his own power coming from the it.

It made him think that, maybe at some point in time, he had sealed a part of himself behind this seal.

But why would he do that?

Well he was about to find out.

He placed his palms on the seal and channelled a little bit of his power into him.

A crack appeared.

More cracks started to appear as God flow back, the Seal started crumbling in front of him, the chains coming out of the seal began to undo themselves as more cracks showed up on the seal and with a mighty sound.

The seal crumbled to the ground and memories that were being held down by the seal, hit him at full force.

He blacked out.

#Flashbacks#

The being God was perfect.

And because he was so perfect, he couldn't comprehend that others around him might not be as perfect as him.

Because there was only good in the universe, he couldn't comprehend what it meant to be evil.

To make mistakes and to learn from them.

But God was lonely.

He had nobody to talk to.

So he created beings in his own image, trying to fill in the loneliness of his heart knowing they could never be his equals but at least he could give them their own free will.

These beings were what mortals called Angels.

So beautiful in nature and yet so powerful.

He had thought nothing of it when he had given them free will, that's why he was so shocked to hear about an uprising, against him.

He couldn't understand why his own creations would want to rise against him and want to kill him.

He didn't understand how terrible Jealously truly was, it had the power to twist even the kindest of souls into monsters that only wanted to kill and destroy everything they touched.

So he was shocked to face down an army of his own angels lead by the very person he thought would never want to kill him.

But despite the number of his enemies, he know that the army of angels were nothing compared to him, after all, they were only a small part of his overall power so it was extremely easy to destroy them and banished them, he casted them down to the earth since the very idea of killing them never crossed his mind since murder did not exist.

But now he faced a new problem.

He was bored.

And because he was bored, he tried his hands again on creation and created the Earth only to find it was lacking something.

Life.

And that's when he got the idea of creating the first Animals that would later be known to History as the Zodiac and his first animal?

The Serpent.

God of now, looked at his past self in shock, seeing an animal he didn't remember creating.

The animal looked nothing like the Snake and you would think that creation such beautiful creatures like the Angels would have made his first animal, better look.

But no.

God of now, watched in shock as he saw himself take the animal under his wing as a companion before he decided to add more, but why couldn't he remember any of this.

Was this some kind of trick?

But in his heart, he know, that what he was seeing was true.

But why couldn't he remember this animal before creating the current Zodiac?

As memories flow by and more animals were created, God of the past tried to make another humanoid creature, the very first human which was shortly followed by the first human female but then he saw something that made him frown.

Lucifer.

The very angel that he had banished to the Earth all those years ago, jumped into the Serpent and possessed it, the animal was forced against its will to lead the first Humans astray and away from God and by the time it finally regained control of its own body.

It was already too late.

The first Human beings had fallen from grace.

God of now, was shocked to see his past self, looking at his own creations with disappointed and hate, not understanding that anyone other than him, couldn't just shake off the devil so easily like himself and thought that the Serpent himself, must have been willing to commit such a crime to allow the devil in, not knowing any better the others followed his example.

God of now, saw his past self-shun the animal for what he was forced to do and place a curse on it to always live the life of hatred, fear and suffering because of what he did.

But by all rights, he should have gone after the devil to deliver the punishment but instead he inflicted punishment onto the defenceless animal.

"Has anyone seen Serpent-Nii-san?" The monkey asked, looking around for his older brother wondering if his brother was with God again, having not heard what had happened.

"Monkey" God said softly, getting the animals attention. "Why don't you play with another one of your brother?" he asked, hoping the animal wouldn't question him.

"But why?" Monkey said, "I don't want to play with anyone else, I want to play with Serpent-Nii-san"

"Monkey" The mouse said, gaining his attention, he know that the Monkey was the youngest out of all of them so he was likely to take the news the hardest. "You can't play with the Serpent anymore. He's gone dark"

"Huh?" Monkey said, he swore he heard wrong.

Did Mouse-Nii-san just say Serpent-Nii-san, went dark?

"He's strayed away from the Light" The dog said, trying to explain "I'm sure you've heard about the fall of Humans"

Monkey nodded, how could he not. It was everywhere and he so happened to see the humans running around in animal skin, thinking it was some new game.

"He's the one who caused it" The mouse said, making the Monkeys eyes go wide.

"You're kidding right? It must be some kind of mistake" Monkey said, he couldn't believe it. "Serpent-Nii-san, is too kind to do something like that, maybe it was someone else that looked like Serpent-Nii-san?"

"Money" God said, sighing "There is no mistake, I saw it myself. To think another one of my creations would fall again."

"B-But" Monkey said, he couldn't believe it, sure the first time he saw Serpent-Nii-san, he thought he was scary looking but he was so kind to him, he remembered when he was sneezing from the cold and his older brother kept him protected using his own skin, when his brother, himself, wasn't the worst when dealing with the cold.

He also remembered that his oldest brother was the first to teach him about the world around him, the animal had the patience of a saint when it came to him, when the other's would become so irritated because of his over the top personality.

So there was no way, Serpent-Nii-san would do such a thing.

But.

Why would God and the other's lie to him?

"Monkey, please promise me, you will stay away from your eldest brother" God said, knowing this must be hard on the animal, it was hard on him too seeing his first animal become the very thing he wanted to prevent.

Monkey said nothing as he looked down, his eyes tearing up.

It wasn't fair.

Having to choose between his brother and his family.

"Monkey" The mouse said, he knows that Serpent was the closest to Monkey.

"Monkey, promise me you will stay away" God said, now a bit more firmer.

"I-I" Monkey began; it just wasn't fair but what if his brother really did fall from grace? And was now evil?

He noticed everyone was waiting for his answer.

"I promise" He said, reluctantly.

God smiled and picked Monkey up, convinced that the animal had made the right choice.

The scene faded out and God found himself watching horrific scenes of abuse delivered onto the Serpent by his own family and his past self.

He saw the sadness that showed in the eyes of someone who was so loving and caring, that it made his heart hurt.

How could he have done this to his creation?

He wouldn't be surprised if the creature hated him.

He watched the Serpent, constantly on the run from God himself and his so called family.

What he had no control over was now like a black mark on the creatures back.

His once close relationship with his family was now up in flames.

While his family were inside enjoying themselves in the warmth of the palace, the Serpent was shivering outside trying to get warm and just survive, having been forced to eat the species of one of his own brothers to stay alive and without god guidance and love from his own family, the once kind hearted Serpent, heart grow colder, along with the unbearable feeling of loneliness.

The animal still dreamed that one day, he would be welcomed back to his family with open arms and apologies would be exchanged.

To survive, the Serpent had to learn to manipulate his surrounding, being possessed by such a deceptive creature such as the devil had left a mark on him, he found that it was all too easy to manipulate his surrounding for his own gain especially when the animals around him were too innocent and gullible to know that you shouldn't trust everything at face value.

God had unknowingly made the Serpent exactly what he feared that he would be.

The scene changed and the God of now, saw himself preparing for the feast that would go down in History and imbed itself in the Japanese Calendar.

He was shocked to see the Serpent had gotten to the water much faster than the other's did and use his body to swim quickly underwater onto land long before the other's had.

So the mouse wasn't the first one on land.

It was the Serpent and the animal never got recognition for it.

The God of now, saw his past self-come into the room and sense, an extra being other than the one's he had invited.

He had no idea that tears had been strolling down his cheeks for quite some time now until he placed his hand on his cheeks to find them wet.

Something about seeing the Serpent try one more time to join the feast and be with his family, just broke his heart.

And he remembered.

He remembered everything.

He remembered what he had done.

He remembered why his reincarnations always suffered.

He had been cursed forced to go through the cycle of loneliness and hatred just like everyone else.

Every single one of them were experiencing what they had put the Serpent through.

And it still wasn't enough.

Nothing could atone for what they had done.

He had turned an innocent creature into the very thing that he feared.

What had he done?

What had he done?

"Akito?" Hatori said.

Tears rolled down Akito face.

Why?

Why?

Why?

Akito body began shaking and he let out a pain stricken sob that shocked the doctor.

Hatori felt slim hands grab his tie as Akito opened his mouth to speak but what came out of his mouth didn't sound like Akito.

It sounded like.

God.

"FIND HIM." the being demanded.

"Find who?" Hatori said, shocked to hear God's voice.

"Find him. Find Him. I have to apologise!" God said, over and over again, clearly hysterical. "I have to try and break the cycle of hatred. I have to beg for his forgiveness"

God kept on rambling on and on, not making any sense at all.

"Find, who?" He asked, one more time.

The grip around his tie tightened.

"Find your brother" God said, looking him straight in the eyes.

"Find the Serpent"

And scene!
