"Hatori?"
"Shigure."
"sigh What does HE want?"
"I don't know should I get it?"
"It's up to you."
"Can I call you back?"
"I 'spose so."
"Ok I'll call you right back." Rei hit end on her cell phone, then she picked up her land line phone.
"Hello?"
"Ah! Rei san! It's me Tohru Honda."
"Oh! Tohru san! Yes what is it?"
"Well…..I just wanted to ask you if you are busy today."
"Well.. Not really. Why?"
"Because I wanted to introduce the some of the other members of the zodiac to you."
" Huh? Oh yeah! Sure. I'll be right over."
Rei hung up, then she dialed Mayu's number, "listen something came up and I need to talk to you later. Okay?"
"Of course.. I'll talk to you later." click
Rei closed her cell phone and grabbed her keys and jacket. Rei walked to Shigure's house, she walked up to the door and rang the door bell. "Hello? Who is it?"
"It's me Rei."
"OH! Rei san! Come on in!"
Rei opened the door and walked inside she took her shoes off at the entrance hall, "Hallo!" Momiji bounded into the room.
"Hey there Momiji!"
"Come on Come on! The others are waiting for you!" He pulled on her hand and led her into the living room. There were two other people waiting at the table that she didn't know. One was a boy with white hair and black roots, the other was a young girl with orange hair. Rei smiled at both of them and they smiled at her. She took a seat by the boy. "Hey, I'm Rei Sohma nice to meet you."
"Hey, I'm Hatsuharu but call me Haru…" Said the boy, "That is Kisa she is just starting to talk so go easy on her ok?"
Rei smiled at Kisa, "Nice to meet you Kisa!" And Kisa smiled a little back.
"Um hi… n nice to meet you…" said Kisa in a small voice.
"So what grade are you two in?" asked Rei.
"I'm in the 9th grade first year. I go to school with Kyo and Yuki. So does Momiji." Said Haru.
"EhHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhh? Momiji is 15 years old?" Rei thought he was 11 years old.
"Yeah, and Kisa is in the 6th grade."
"If you don't mind me asking what animals of the zodiac are you?" asked Rei.
"Well.. I'm the Ox," said Haru.
"I'm the Rabbit! I'm the Rabbit!" said Momiji enthusiastically.
"And…I'm….the tiger…" said Kisa softly she blushed.
"Really? I love tigers!" Rei said she smiled down at Kisa and Kisa perked up a little.
" Rei san is also a Sohma she is Shishou san's other child!" said Tohru she handed Rei some tea.
"You're Shihan's other child?" asked a voice from behind Rei.
Rei turned around and saw a girl with dark brown hair standing with Kyo (who was clearly choking) in her arms.
"Yes I am."
"Nice to meet you.. I'm Kagura and I'm the Boar. Also known as Kyo's fiancé!" the girl said.
"Kyo's…. fiancé?"
"Yes! When we were younger he told me he would make me his bride!"
"That's because –gag- you threatened me!" said Kyo who was gasping for air.
"Well congratulations on that Kyo….." Rei felt guilty for feeling bad for Kyo.
"-gag- Let –argh!- ME –cough- GO dammit!" gagged Kyo angrily.
"Um, Kagura san? You may want him to be ALIVE when you marry him…" pointed out Rei.
"Eh?" Kagura finally realized she was choking him, "Oops! Sorry Kyo kun! Please don't be mad at me!"
"STUPID BROAD! GOD YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A DUMB VIOLENT GIRL!" yelled Kyo as he massaged his neck.
"Ohhh Kyo how can you yell at me! EVEN THOUGH I LOOOVVEEE YOU SO MUCH!" Kagura went from teary eyed to flashing anger in an instant.
"Ehh?"
"She's like that, so am I,I go from normal to angry in an instant."
"Ok?"
"Yeah you get used to it but anyways you're Kyo's sister?"
"Yes I am, why?"
"Because Kyo seems a little happier since you are his sister."
"Really?"
"Yeah.
Rei felt pride in those words and it made her want to break the curse that all of them had even more. She wanted to protect these people from not being allowed a normal life like every one else. She swore her life on protecting these people. And that was a oath she was NOT going back on……………………………….
