Note from the author;; This is a Fruits Basket fanfic! It is basically a whole twist with my demented mind that lays here. There will be new characters into this story, as it is a fan fiction that I began writing WAY BACK in February in this big fat notebook of mine. The three characters you will see… Well… Yeah… Enjoy!

Disclaimer;; Fruits Basket characters do not belong to me, but they belong to Natsuki Takaya! The three new characters, well, only one out of three belong to me, the other two belong to my friends. NOW TO THE STORY!

Taking a twist;; Chapter One; The beginning

"La la la," Singing to her own tune, she smiled, walking through the woods. Both hands were occupied as she strolled above rushing water. "Oh! The water is so clear!" The plastic bags held in her hands clinged to her skin. Clunks were heard as her flip-flops hit the sturdy log. The trees were tall and strong, with leaves slowly appearing. The young leaves did not cover much, and the branches were brown and bare. Gleams from the bright sun were seen past the branches, without a single cloud blocking its way. Her long brown hair tossed with every movement made by her body. As she neared a house, she stopped singing.

"Ah," a great smile appeared, "Here I am!" In front of the door, she placed a single bad down, and reached for the door with her right hand. She slid it open slowly. Once the door was fully opened, she picked up the bag she placed on the ground and stepped inside. Sliding her shoes off, she slipped her feet into fuzzy yellow slippers. "I'm home!" Strolling past the living room, she stepped into the kitchen, placing the bags down on the counter. The plastic rustled due to the motion of the objects inside. Outside the kitchen was a hallway, where one of the doors opened. A person in a kimono stepped out, walking barefoot towards her.

"Ah! What lovely presents has out sweet flower bestowed upon us?" The person walked into the kitchen with a mischievous smile lurking on his face.

"Oh Shigure, it's just groceries! I needed to go out and buy some items for this week's dinner. A nervous smile lingered on her face.

"But Tohru, everything you bring home is a present!" Tohru opened her mouth to speak, only to be interrupted by one so princely.

"Miss Honda! Why, hello!" Tohru turned her head to the opened doorway. Standing before her was the prince of her school.

"Yuki! How was that student council project? Is it getting stressful as president?"
"It was just okay, I think a bit more effort could come from the student council, but I'll be able to manage." He spoke in such a gentle manner, "Although, I heard about something rather intriguing." Tohru tilted her head.

"Eh?"
"Well," he began, "Do you remember three students in our class leaving to the United States? The three American students should be arriving to our class tomorrow, and they will be going to our class." Tohru's face lit up with excitement. Shigure began to chuckle and her amazement.

"Wow!" She clasped her hands together, "That is so wonderful! Three exchange students in our class!" Thump thump thump.
"WHAT'S THIS ABOUT EXCHANGE STUDENTS!" (Overall feelings from the three) . . . … . . . . . . . ……….. His eyes began to twitch as he eyed Yuki. "C'mon you damn rat! TELL ME!" Tohru got out of her surprise of the overall noise and smiled.

"Well Kyo, we're getting three new exchange students from the United States. They're going to be in our class!"
"Not that it's of any importance to you…" Yuki mumbled with a dull voice.

"Huh? What was that, you damn rat!"

"Nothing stupid cat.

"I DARE YOU! SAY THAT AGAIN!"
"Stupid cat, quit yelling."
"I CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT!"
The two continued bickering with each other. Tohru held out her hands with a nervous smile on her face.

"Uh…" She said nervously.

Shigure's eyes moved alongside with whoever was yelling at each other.

"You two… You should stop being such poor lovers and get along." The room grew silent. "I'll be in the study if you need me! Hehe."
". . . He did not just say that." Kyo's expression went dull, along with his voice, as he stared at the back of Shigure's head.

"Oh! We are finally off that wicked long plane ride!" Three girls stepped outside the airport, each having two suitcases of their own. "Now, we need to go to our new house."
"Bara, do you have the address?" A grin spread across Bara's face. Her hair was pinned with a crème colored clip. Brown bangs slowly fell, crossing over to cover her left eye.

"Of course I do, Safaia! It's right… in…" Bara shoved her hand into the pocket of her jeans, quickly removing a paper. "HERE!" She held out the paper with both hands. Her eyes were shut as she had a foolish smile on her face.

"BARA! THAT IS A RECEIPT FROM PANERA BREAD!" Safaia placed a hand on her forehead and shook her head. Her blue hair was braided into a tight, long braid, mid-arm length.

"WHAT?" Bara exclaimed while opening her eyes. Another girl stepped into the picture, picking up a piece of paper by Bara's feet. Her long brown hair had caramel highlights, gleaming against the sun.

"Ehem…." Safaia and Bara turned their head to their friend, "I believe you dropped this, Bara." She handed a sheet of torn paper to Bara.

"Eh?" Bara looked down, "Oh thanks Hotaru!" Bara looked down at the paper, "Our new home is………" She paused for a long time.

"Yes?" Both Hotaru and Safaia said at once.

". . . Where is this place!" Safaia sighed.

"Baraaaaaaaaaaaa! Let's just get a taxi and have the driver take us to our new home." Safaia suggested.

"Good idea!" Bara grinned. Hotaru laughed as they both attempted to attract a taxi driver's attention.

"And this is where the story begins…." Hotaru spoke quietly, with a content smile on her face.

And that's that. Please do comment, tell me what you think as well. )

If you have any sort of suggestions, I guess I'll listen, but I have quite a lot of the story done. So, yes, feedback will be nice on what I could improve on.

And as for my OTHER story, take a look at that and tell me if I should continue it, I am not so sure.

Thanks for reading!

Taking a twist;; Chapter Two;Introductions Preview

"You can have that one you know." Bara looked at Kyo.
"I'm fine, it's your lunch, you only brought so many for yourself."
"Oh just eat it! I made extras anyways." Kyo's voice began to grow aggravated. Bara sighed and took the rice ball willingly with her left hand. She stared at it for quite some time.
"Well!" Kyo said loudly.
"WHAT!" Kyo looked at Bara with his eyebrows raised. Bara began to giggle. "I'm going, I'm going." She bit into the rice ball, chewed, then swallowed. "Thanks. I guess I did need some lunch." Her smiled had an effect on him. It began to make Kyo's stomach churn.
"Uh… No problem…" He looked away quickly, and continued to finish his own lunch.
