Disclaimer: I don't own Fruits Basket. Just the OC's like Selene, Serenity, and Faith. The information that Faith and Serenity are giving Tohru is made up by me and is the product of my vivid imagination. There's a tiny refrence to harry potter.
Chapter 5: Answers
"...shapeshifters also called animagus. Basically we can transform into an animal whenever we want." Faith finished for Serenity. They stumbled down the slope and walked as fast as they could toward the house.
"Ehh?" Thoru said, still confused as she tried desperately to keep up.
"When we get really emotional, we transform against our will. Especially when we get extremly angry. Luckily we found a sensei that was willing to teach us how to control our powers. He taught us how to transform back into a human, without waiting for our bodies to get tired or injured." Faith said matter-of-factly.
"Also, remember you asked us why we hadn't aged? The reason is because when you reach 17 or 18, you start aging slower. For every 10 years, our body ages 1 year." Serenity grunted as she tripped on a rock. "This is why we want you to move in with us, so that we can teach you to control yourself and your magic."
"Umph!" Selene stirred a little and groaned as she was bounced up and down and almost dropped. "Why does my head hurt so much and why are you guys carrying me? What happened to those rabid fan girls?"
"You shouldn't try to talk onee-san! We're going to bring you back to Shigure-san's house then we can get a doctor for you! We're only a block away!" Tohru said, smiling brightly in hopes that it would make Selene feel better.
"Uh oh! You shouldn't have mentioned doctors! Remember she's afraid of them? Remember, remember, remember?" Faith snickered hyperly. Selene just moaned in protest and closed her eyes, hoping this was just a nightmare and that she would wake up soon. She tried to pinch herself, but she couldn't move her arm.
"Ahahaha Selene is so scary and yet she is afraid of doctors!" Serenity snorted.
"Ummm...it's okay onee-san! Lots of people are afraid of the doctor, don't worry! You can hold my hand!" Tohru said seriously, which caused Serenity and Faith to start laughing outright. They had to pause and lean against a wall so that they wouldn't drop Selene. Tohru just stared quizically at them and Selene rolled her eyes.
Finally when they calmed down adequately, they began walking again. After 10 more minutes of huffing and puffing, they at last reached the house and practically broke the door down trying to get inside.
"What the hell?" Kyo screamed at them as they nearly ran him over. "Watch it, dammit!"
"Sorry Kyo-kun." Tohru said, bowing. "Where's Yuki-kun and Shigure-san? Also, do you know any good doctors? Selene got hurt and may need some stiches."
Before Kyo had time to answer, there was another crash accompanied by a poof. Tohru and Kyo rushed toward the sound and saw a rat standing in the middle of the stair case. There was a shuffling sound and the edge of a skirt flashed out of sight at the top of the stairs.
"HAHAHA! THE DAMN RAT COULDN'T DODGE THEM!" Kyo pointed and laughed at a very pissed off looking Yuki.
"Sorry Yuki-kun!" Tohru said apolegetically while bowing a 100 times. "Do you know where we can find a good doctor for Selene?" There was a poof and Yuki turned human again. Tohru yelped and immediately shoved her face against the wall. Hurriedly Yuki shoved his clothes on.
"It's alright now Honda-san! You can look now. Why don't we get Hatori to come here?" Yuki said evenly.
"But...Is it alright to get Hatori-san to come here? Is he busy? What if he doesn't want to come?" Panicked Tohru finally removing her face from the wall.
"Ehh. Don't worry, Hatori will come here." Kyo said fairly calmly.
"The idiot's right, so don't get upset." Yuki commented.
"Hey who are you calling an idiot? Damn rat!" Kyo yelled loudly.
"Anyways, I'll go call him now. He will be here soon." Yuki said loudly, trying to talk over Kyo's screaming. Tohru bowed and yelled a "Thank you" before disappearing at the top of the stair case.
Yuki walked to the phone and dialed the Sohma main house phone. A lady picked up the phone and Yuki asked her to bring Hatori to the phone. A few seconds later, there was a muffled noise as the phone was passed.
"Hey Yuki! Whats up? How come you're calling Ha'a-san? I bet Kyo injured Tohru-kun." A male voice pipped. Before he could say anything else, there was a scuffle and the phone was snatched away by Hatori. A "but ha'a-san!" could be heared before Haotri glared at the person who then shut up.
"Hello Yuki, is something wrong?" Hatori asked cooly showing no signs of the struggle 5 seconds ago.
"Was that Shigure? What's he doing there? Anyway, can you come over? I'm sure Shigure's told you about Tohru's sisters, ne? Well one of them got injured and needs some medical assistance." Yuki said equally cooly.
Hatori sighed then said that he would be there soon and hung up. Shigure leaned against a wall a few feet away looking smug.
"I have to go tend one of Tohru's sisters at your house." Hatori said, brushing past Shigure so that he could get to his office so that he could grab his medical bag. "I assume you're going to stay here longer until you can talk to Akito?"
"Indeed..." Shigure muttered conspiratorily. Hatori just glanced at him and entered his office, grabbing his bag and car keys.
"Bye Ha'ri!" Shigure said cheerfully as he followed Hatori to the front door. "Remember not to do anything perverted!"
Hatori glared coldly at him and one of his eyes twitched in annoyance while he muttered something under his breath that sounded suspiciously like "im not you" and slammed the door in Shigure's face.
Shigure chuckled and padded toward Akito's room, knocking on the door before entering.
"Hello my dear Akito-san..." Shigure said carefully, closing the door behind him. "I have some good news for you..."
Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry I haven't written anything in a week and a half! Egad, I will try harder in the future to update more!
Peace Out-MidniteRoses
