"In to the Fox Hole: Nayato Sohma" by Nayato Sohma. ((A/N: I do not own Fruits Basket or any of the characters from it. I do however own the char Nayato Sohma…which is the main char of this fanfic. This is my first ever fanfic that I've posted on the net. I really do enjoy writing it…and I hope that you enjoy it. If you don't that's good…I can find out what's wrong with it and fix it up to make it good enough to read. Again I do NOT own Fruits Basket or it's chars…. Enjoy the story. Summary: There are Sohmas that have been completely forgotten, never to be heard of again. Nayato Sohma is one of those forgotten Sohmas. He bears the curse that the Zodiac members carry, but he doesn't transform into any of the Zodiac animals. He lives alone until one Sohma attends his aid…and it's one Sohma that you would least expect to help someone.))

Chapter 1: The Forgotten Sohma.

It was raining pretty hard outside, the thunder flashing, and the lightning striking across the sky. Outside a run down Japanese style building was a person kneeling against the back porch, soaking in the pouring rain. The person had no expression on his face and the water dripped from his hair on his dull red kimono. His multi-colored eyes gave off a blank stare.

~Why….why am I all alone?? Why did mama and papa leave me behind?? Why am I like this?? Why…..w…why?~

The man cried and fell asleep on the drenched porch still asking those questions to himself. When he awoke the sun was bright and warm against his wet skin. He managed to stretch and make a small yawn before he noticed a tall skinny man standing ten feet away from him.

" Who…who are you??!," the drenched man backed away in fear. " What do you want?"

The slender young man stepped forward smiling. " My name is Akito…Akito Sohma. I am the head of the Sohma family. I have come to help you out….please follow me…if you want to survive." He gave a wide grin and turned towards his car.

The man just stared as Akito walked farther away. He was very confused and his head hurt as well. He turned to have a long look at the warn down house before he got up and yelled after Akito.

" Wait! Akito-san! I…I'll come with you…please..I don't want to be alone anymore." The man gasped for air as he entered the car. Akito just gave him a grin and started the engine. "Um…by the way..I haven't introduced myself. I'm Nayato Sohma."

(I hope my first chapter was good….I mean I really don't know how good my written work is. Heh-heh…well I hope to have at least one review.)
