Fruits Basket

New Beginnings Same Endings

((Author Note: Ok well it's a continuation rather then a sequel as a few people have pointed out. I'm also sorry if you want answers to certain questions now. There was a large request for the story to continue and I agreed to continue it which is why some questions are still up in the air. Sort of like the real fruits basket manga…so again I'm sorry if you want the story to end now. All I can really say is this story may pull away from those questions since we have other Sohma problems to deal with. I'll try to be vague in their problems so they're not all obvious. Well its Haru's turn. If you want someone's story to be heard next, just shout it out in the review and I'll do it.))

Chapter 2: Haru

I always hated that part of me, when I loose all control, but I also liked it. I can always feel the rush of power as my other self takes over. The heighten emotions course through my veins with each beat of my heart, increasing the thrill of the moment. My mind always falls into a thick fog as I allow my other self to destroy anything that dares to threaten me, because I'm weak.

"Hatsuharu! Put that down, right now!" one of the teachers yelled from the far corner of the classroom. The other students had left the room leaving only Haru and the frightened teacher. The class room was scattered with student's papers, while chairs and desk were knocked over across the room. Hatsuharu happened to be holding one of the chairs in his hands. His eyes were narrowed as his fingernails dug deep into the wood. He didn't seem like he heard the teacher's plea as he stood there in the middle of the room. Just when the teacher was about to call out to Haru again his head cocked to the side with a sly smirk spread across his face.

"Put it down?" he repeated as if he hadn't heard what she had said to him.

"Yes, please. Just put the chair down and we can talk."

"Talk? What makes you think I want to talk?" Haru said as he felt his throat begin to tightened, "Like I would want to talk to the likes of you. I'll put the chair down since you asked so nicely though," Haru launched the chair out the classroom window. The glass shattered with ease as a satisfying grin spread across his face as he heard a few of the students outside gasping to the situation from above them outside. The teacher gave up on coaxing Haru out of the class and she quickly retreated, leaving him alone in the classroom.

"Figures, bunch of morons anyways," Haru said as he sat down on one of the broken tables. His mind felt fuzzy as he tried to recall what had happened before he had unleashed his black side. He didn't quiet remember what made him so mad, but he could still feel its burning make inside him. The truth was, he knew what was making him made, but he didn't want to admit it to himself. His chest felt like someone was suffocating to death. He couldn't stand that feeling any longer. He just wanted it to go away. Haru got back on his feet again and he began tossing another chair around the classroom to ease his confusing feelings. It wasn't long until another person stepped inside the classroom to try and stop him.

"Alright, who's next…" Haru turned around to be face with Yuki standing in the doorway with a not to happy look across his face. Haru's face softened slightly, but not enough to coax his white side back out, "Yuki, what a surprise."

"It shouldn't be," Yuki replied to him as he tucked his books under his arm slightly, "What's wrong, Haru? Did something happen here to make you upset? Was it one of the students?"

Haru shook his head as he laughed in a strange manner. Yuki frowned slightly since Haru sounded like a psychopath and he really hoped no one else could hear him, "Ha, as if I let a bunch of idiots bother me. It's not that…it's just she doesn't want to see me anymore."

"She?" Yuki repeated as he wondered what Haru was talking about, "Did you have a girlfriend?"

Haru seemed like he was beginning to calm down now as he eased his body back to lean against the wall. Yuki was his one true weakness. His face betrayed him and revealed how much it hurt him to admit what his problem was, "I suppose you can say that…sorry Yuki."

"You shouldn't be saying sorry to me," Yuki said as he decided not to press the issue any further, "Come on. They need to clean this mess up. Not to mention they already called your parents."

"Right…" Haru took a deep breath as he followed Yuki out. He had to admit he really liked how Yuki handled him. He never pushed his black personality and he was always willing to put up with him. Haru supposed that was why he admired Yuki so much. He only wished he could help Yuki find some happiness of his own.

Yuki directed Haru to a bench so he could wait for his parents, "Just wait here. I'm sure it will be awhile. Need anything?"

"No, I'm fine."

"Good. I'm going to be busy with some student council stuff so I'll see you later," Yuki waved goodbye to Haru as he walked off. It bothered Haru that Yuki was so busy. He hardly ever saw him anymore, but things change like that.

Haru amused himself with a piece of string he had found for a few hours. He knew his mother would take her sweet time in coming since she probably knew what she was being called in for. Haru had always had his parents called in when he was younger because of his black side would come out numerous times. It was beginning to become a regular event for Haru now. He suspected he'd be grounded for a few weeks not to mention suspended on top of it.

"Hey."

Haru lifted his head to meet his greeter since he had been preoccupied with the string he had been playing with, "Kyo…Tohru, what are you doing here?"

Kyo gave Haru a light shrug as if he didn't know since he was mostly escorting Tohru, "She heard about what happened and wanted to see if you're ok."

"Huh…oh," Haru replied in a dreamy like voice since he had almost forgotten but the days events already.

"Are you really ok, Hatsuharu?" Tohru asked as she bent down to his level on the bench, "Yuki sounded really worried about you."

Haru smiled lightly when he heard how concern Yuki was for him along with Tohru. He didn't like worrying them, but sometimes he really couldn't help it, "I'm fine now. Yuki made me feel a little better. My hands hurt though."

"I wonder why," Tohru said since she really had no idea how much damage Haru had caused.

"Because he destroyed a whole classroom," Kyo responded as Tohru's mouth fell opened in shock. Kyo ignored her for now since he suspected such a reaction from her, "So what's your sentence this time?"

"Don't know, my parents haven't come yet. Probably the usual…"

"Figure's. You have such a bad temper on you."

"You should talk, Kyo," Haru said as he sat up slightly.

"Shut up!"

"I'm glad you're ok, Hatsuharu," Tohru said as she stood up, "Come by Shigure's house if you're not feeling well. We'll keep you company."

"We?" Kyo said with a narrowed look.

Haru smiled to Tohru's kindness as he nodded his head, "Thank you. I'd be happy to visit you all sometime, especially Yuki."

"Great," Kyo said in a tired voice. He wished Tohru stop inviting all the Sohma's over.

Haru waved lightly to them both as they left to attend their class that was beginning to start. Haru let a light sigh escape his lips as he sat there. He wished he could go do something else now. His string had broken and he had no other means to amuse himself with now. Before Haru could look around for something else to keep his entertainment he saw Hatori walking down the hall. Hatori had a strong steady walk which was impossible to mistake him for someone else.

"Hatori?" Haru asked as if he hadn't known who it was.

"Are you ready to go?" he asked, straight to the point of his business being there, "Your mother is running late and has requested that I take you home."

Haru nodded lightly to what Hatori said to him. It wasn't all too surprising to him that his mother was running so late. He slowly got to his feet as he stretched his stiff muscles, "I am ready."

"Good, now let's go," Hatori didn't waste anytime retreating from the school. He didn't like being their since too many girls followed the Sohma's around and it was too nerve racking for Hatori. Haru really didn't mind, in fact he hardly every paid much attention to it in the first place. Hatori opened the car door for Haru as he watched the black and white haired boy lazily get into the car.

Hatori stepped inside and he gave Haru a look over, "Did you hurt yourself this time?"

"No…just scratches."

"Good," Hatori placed his hands on the wheel of his car as he began to drive, "Akito wants to talk to you."

"I know," Haru said as he stared out the window, watching the buildings pass by him in a blur of motion.

"Oh?" Hatori questioned since he was the only one that knew that Akito requested to speak to Hatsuharu.

"Just a feeling," Haru leaned his head against the glass as he let a light sigh out. He felt tired after the day's events, "Have you seen her?"

"If you are speaking of the person who upset you so greatly today, then no. Shigure mentioned seeing her near Kazuma's house, but she hasn't been seen since."

"I see…" Haru said as he shut his eyes, "She's on a journey and she doesn't want to take me with her. I don't really care though; I'm going to follow her."

Hatori glanced to his mirror to see Haru drifting to a deep sleep. It pained him to see Haru this way since most days Haru was general in a good mood, but with these resent events it had pulled his black personality out. Hatori wouldn't tell Akito about what Haru had said, he would keep that secret to himself.

Haru felt his mind drift into a peaceful sleep, where he could live in a world with the people he cared for a loved. He would keep her safe from anyone's hands, especially Akito's.

Spoiler Note: If you have read the manga then you would know what this event is about. If you haven't and want to know who Haru is freaking out about then here it is. The person he's freaking out about is Rin, who is the horse. She'll appear soon, but this was just an opening chapter for Haru and some hints towards Rin. Kyo has appeared in each one of these so far. Think I can weasel him in there in all of these?
