Author's Note: Isn't there a movie called "there's something about Mary"? If there is, this fic is probably nothing like it—I just couldn't think of a better name. Tear…

Every day, Neko-kun visits his sweetheart Buta-chan at her cute little cottage. Neko-kun loved her very much, and would bring her a gift everyday to show his affections. But one day, Neko-kun did not come to visit Buta-chan, which made her worry very much. So she went out to Neko-kun's house to find out where he was. Once there, she found Onezumi-kun, Neko-kun's best friend outside the house at his secret garden. "Onezumi-kun," she asked. "Where is my sweet Neko-kun?"

He shook his head and said "I don't know, maybe he's at school."

And so, Buta-chan raced off to her love's school, hoping that he would be there. But the only people she could find were Oushi-kun and Usagi-chan. "We haven't seen him all day!" chirped Usagi-chan.

"Did you try Ryu-san's office? Maybe he's sick." said Oushi-kun.

Buta-chan gasped. "Oh no!" she cried, "I hadn't thought about that!" so she raced off to Ryu-san's office.

"Haven't seen him," said Ryu-san, not looking up from his book. "Maybe he's at Inu-san's house."

"But I've already looked there, and he's not there!"

"Did you look inside?"

"…" Buta-chan ran off back to Inu-san's house. She flew up the stairs and into Neko-kun's room. "LOVE!" she yelled upon seeing him. Just then, she noticed another girl in the room. "Who's THIS?" she demanded.

"Help me Buta-chan," pleaded Neko-kun, "treacherous Onigiri-chan has kept me locked in here all day and is trying to make me fall in love with her!"

"Not if I can help it!" Then, Buta-chan charged towards Onigiri-chan and knocked her across the room and out of the window.

"Aiee!" she screamed as she flew away into the horizon.

"My hero!" cheered Neko-kun, and he kissed Buta-chan.

"The end!" shouted Kagura. Kyo stared at her, completely dumbstruck. Yuki, on the other hand, was trembling slightly as he tried not to laugh too hard. "And that's a true story!" said Kagura firmly.

"Wow," started Tohru, "that was a really good story, Kagura. I liked it how Buta-chan would do anything for the man she loves."

"You've given me that compliment before, Tohru-kun."

"Eh… I have?" Kagura chuckled.

"Bitch!" shouted Kyo, jumping to his feet. "Why'd you have to tell such a stupid story? Since when did I love YOU, and why'd you say that damn rat's my 'best friend'?"

"Well… isn't he?"

"Like hell he is! And what's up with that whole 'Neko-kun' and 'Buta-chan' thing, anyway?"

"I could ask the same about YOUR story, cat prince!"

"Hey, lots of stories involve the Chinese zodiac! Just because I used them for my story doesn't mean that it was about US!"

"And since when did the zodiac include an onigiri?"

"I could ask you the same!"

"Uh, um… Please don't fight." said Tohru.

"Oh sure," yelled Kagura, turning to Tohru angrily. "You only say that because you're the onigiri!"

"EHHHH? I am?"

"…You didn't get that?" asked Kagura tiredly. Tohru shook her head. "Flake," she muttered under her breath.

"Hey Hiro," started Momiji, "would you like to tell the next story?"

"Just because you ask me, doesn't mean that I have to." huffed Hiro. Momiji turned away sadly, Kisa gaze Hiro a stern look. "But then again, maybe I just feel like telling a stupid kids story." Kisa smiled. "Alright, this is about what Akito could do if he ever just had enough…"
