Hey. I finally uploaded it, even without 5 reviews. I just really wanted to upload this part. Anyway, I'll TRY to upload everyday on the weekends so... That doesn't mean that you can't review! Now- disclaimers-

Disclaimers: I don't own Fruits Basket, nor will I ever. I do own Sarkain, her past, and the plot.

"Well, as you already may know, we are cursed," Hatori started.

"Yeah, and when someone from the opposite gender hugs you, you transform," She finished for him.


They all started at her, eyes wide.

"WHAT?" Everyone – besides Tohru, who was to polite to shout, and Hatori, who was to shocked to shout – shouted.

"How the hell do you know?" Hatori asked her. Sarkain just sat there, eyes looking into space. They all continued to stare at her, and when that had no effect, they gave up.

"It's obvious," She finally replied, surprising them. They looked at her strangely for a few moments, as if asking 'What do you mean it's obvious!' "Well, when she fell on orange – head, he transformed into a cat. Also, why else would you have a house this far into the woods, without a secret? Besides, I heard them talking about it," she answered simply, like it was no big thing. Everyone glared at Shigure and Hatori, like it was their fault.

Hatori sighed. "You're right," he said. "About the curse." He was silent for a moment. "We each are cursed, each by an animal of the zodiac, and the cat. Whenever we get hugged by someone from the opposite sex, we transform." Everyone was quiet after he told her. 'Now an other outsider knows about the curse. And somehow, I don't think Akito is going to be as trustworthy as he was with Tohru' Everyone thought bitterly.

"Ha – Hatori," Momiji said in a small voice. Grateful for the boy to have broken the silence, Hatori looked at the blonde and smiled.

"Yes, Momiji," he said kindly.

"Umm, will she have to get her memory erased?" The boy asked nervously, for this question had been on everyone's minds. They all looked at Hatori, half expecting him to say something like "Yes, it would be for the best. In fact, I should really erase it right now," Hatori, however, did not say anything. He just sighed and closed his eyes, as if searching for the right words to say.

"I'll have to tell Akito," he said after a long moments silence. "Her fate is now in his hands." Sarkain snorted, then narrowed her eyes at Hatori.

"My fate isn't in anybody's hands," She spat, glaring at him even more. Hatori flinched, then turned to Shigure.

"May I borrow your phone? I need to talk to Akito." Shigure nodded silently and Hatori left the room. It was now complete silence. Hatori came back minutes later, with a somewhat glum look on his face. "You will be seeing Akito next week," he told the girl. She seemed like she hadn't even heard what he'd said, she just stared at the same spot on the wall. Resisting the urge to tell her again, Hatori sighed, then sat down on the couch, in the middle of Haru and Sarkain. Shigure sighed too, then left the room, Ayame behind him.


Sarkain's POV

I could feel their eyes on me. Afraid. Confused. None of the emotions I had ever felt before – except once. Forcing myself not to think about it, I stared at the wall. I could tell that they though something was strange about me. After all, what are the odds of a girl being found almost dead in the cemetery, and she just so happens to know about the Sohma family secret. It's not like I gave shit. All what I really wanted right now was to run off. I don't think they would stop me. Not after what I did to both those guys. I closed my eyes and tried to think. 'Where had I seen them before?' I asked myself. They looked so familiar. Eyes still closed, I tried to concentrate, but failed. There was too much noise. Not noise as in people talking, everyone was now being as silent as a grave (A/N- Sorry, I know it sounds cheesy, but I didn't feel like writing just plain 'silent'.). Well, as grave as in what most people hear in one. Not people like me. I smirked a little. The 'smile' quickly faded when I realized that I still needed to find out where I had seen them before. 'I wish I could find some quiet place to think! Then I might find out where I'd seen them before' I was so occupied in my thoughts, that it startled me when the orange – head started shouting at the blonde girl.

"Momiji! Stop shittng annoying me!" He shouted. The blonde – Momiji – yelped, then ran into the brunette.

POOF

Where the blonde had just been, was now a yellow rabbit. I started at it for a few minutes. Everyone else looked as though this was perfectly normal. Finally, with a 'POOF' Momiji turned back to a human. Turning my head back to him when he had changed back into his clothes, I saw everyone looking at me.

"Hey, what are you so surprised about?" the orange – hair dude asked me.

"But.. .He... HE'S A FREAKIN BOY?" I shouted. Everyone looked from Momiji, to me, and so forth.

"Um... yeah," purple – eyed dude, Yuki, answered.

"HOLY SHIT!" THAT was a surprise! Momiji looked at me with scared, brown eyes. However, I could tell that he was trying to be happy for some reason. The sound of my shouting had drawn attention to Shigure and the other guy, who had both come out from Shigure's office.

"What happened?" The other guy asked.

"Oh, nothing that important, she just found out that Momiji is a guy," the layered – hair dude – Haru – said, smiling slightly. Shigure raised an eyebrow but said nothing.


Normal POV

They all sat there, quiet for a few seconds, before Haru broke the silence. "Come to think of it, we haven't introduced ourselves," he said, trying to smile. "I'm Sohma Hatsuharu, but you can just call me Haru." He smiled again. "These are my cousins, Sohma Yuki, Kyo, Momiji, Shigure, Ayame, Hatori, and Shigure's housekeeper, Honda Tohru," he told Sarkain. She just nodded slightly, eyes now locked again on the wall.


Sarkain's POV

"And you are..." Haru asked me. I smirked inwardly. 'You will never know my real name, Sohma Haru. When you do, take it as a warning. For I will end up finding you, and I will kill you.' I thought to myself.

"Call me Kairse," I told him. He looked shocked, then nodded slowly. By the time all the explanations, staring, introductions, staring, and even more staring had gone by, it was time for dinner. I stood up and started walking toward the door, something that I'd been waiting to do ever since I woke up in this house.


Normal POV

"Where are you going?" Hatori asked the girl, Kairse, as she got up and headed toward the door. She just ignored him and continued. Haru and Kyo got up, with much difficulty on Haru's part, and stood in front of her. She narrowed her eyes and hissed at both of them.

"Get out of my way. I thought you'd know by know not to piss me off!" They both stayed in their place. "Get out of my way before I send you both to your graves," she hissed. They both flinched slightly, but stayed where they were. Kyo and Haru just glared at her, until Yuki came up behind her and smiled.

"You shouldn't be outside in this weather," he told her indicating the falling snow.

"And why not?" She snapped.

"You'll catch a cold, with what your wearing," he replied, still smiling,

"What the hell's wrong with what I'm wearing?" she asked him, pissed. She was wearing baggy, black jeans, with two chains on the left side, a black shirt with a skull on it, and black vans.

"Nothing exactly wrong, just the fact that you'll catch a cold or worse if you travel outside, and I don't think that Hatori would want to treat an other patient, after just finishing with me and Haru," Yuki answered. At this, Hatori got up.

"Speaking of patients, I must head back to the main house to check up on Akito," he said, getting his coat from the hanger.

"Akito? The head of the house?" Sarkain asked. Haroti nodded. 'They must really be scared of him of something' she thought to herself. It was true. The whole room had gotten a little darker when Hatori mentioned Akito. "Take me to him," she ordered, breaking the piercing silence. Everyone looked at her in disbelief.

"What?" They all shouted in unison.

"I said I want to come with you to see Akito," she answered coldly. The tone of her voice and the darkness in her eyes told them that she wasn't kidding.

"Are you... Are you sure?" Hatori asked after a moment of silence.

"Yes. I want to see that son of a bitch that thinks that he owns my bloody fate. I want to make it clear that he doesn't own any bloody thing of mine, especially my fate," She told them, narrowing her eyes. After moments of thought, Hatori sighed.

"All right, I'll take you to see Akito..."


There's Chapter 3. The next Chapter is coming soo, I hope. I already know how I'm going to end this, but should I make a sequel? Anywho, Review.
