Angel: We're all back!
Tohru: What happened to crazy dark gal-kun?
Justine: To get revenge for the evil cliffe she left us at, she's tied up in a closet somewhere.
Kilo: No wonder it was so quiet. She's not yelling at me.
Yuki: Don't you need her in order to continue the story?
Angel: No. I stole the 7th chapter off her. -Holds up several pieces of paper-
Emily: So we control the place now!
Kilo: But I escaped by wishing myself free. Can't crazy dark gal do the same?
Justine: We thought of that, and wished that she couldn't wish herself free.
Shigure: You're all so evil!
Kyo: You can't talk! What about your editor?
Shigure: Mi-chan knows I just tease her.
Emily: Then why did this letter from Mi-chan come from the mental institution? -Holds letter up-
Shigure: -Quickly grabs the letter away from Emily- It's nothing. She's just trying to get back at me. -Sweat drop-
Me: -Appears- You guys are so evil! Tying me up in a closet was not nice at all!
Justine: And you started it by leaving us at that incredibly evil cliffe!
Angel: Besides, we could've gone on without you. I took the 7th chapter. And how did you get out anyway?
Me: -Shrug- Not sure. I guess someone was kind enough to wish me free. And whoever did it, thank you so much! And that isn't the 7th chapter. That's a decoy. I have the real one.
Justine: Who did it? Who set her free? I wanna know right now!
Me: I wish the person who set me free doesn't reveal themself!
Angel: Why?
Me: Because you would kill whoever did it. And I'm not going to be respondible for their death. And now, to reveal what secret Mika is hiding.
Kilo: But before that, let's stall for time and annoy you all with the disclaimer!
Angel: No one here owns Fruits Basket or any of it's characters.
Shippo: And no one owns InuYasha or me.
Justine: But crazy dark gal owns Mika, Kire, and Saki. So don't steal them.
Emily: And please don't sue us. We're poor!
Me: Now onto the story! I hope you like it!
Shout Outs: Pys-Chick14, Kilo really liked it that you thought she was great, thanks. hypermikogirl, you are so evil because you guessed the cliffe and got it right! rock-chick131, I have to get help for myself before I can help you. EverD and ipokeu, I don't have to listen to you two! Thank you all for reviewing. You all rock!

LAST TIME:
At that very moment, when the sun sunk below the horizon, Mika screamed in pain. She fell down to the floor, holding her sides, still screaming in pain.
Tohru ran over to her friend. "Mika! What's wrong?"
NOW:
All the guys downstairs ran into Tohru's room after hearing the screams of pain. "What's going on?" they all asked. That was when they saw Mika laying on the floor, holding her sides while screaming as Tohru kept asking her what's wrong.
Mika suddenly jumped up and ran out of the room. But everyone saw that she teeth were longer, like fangs, and something that looked like wolf ears appeared on top of her head. She ran to the stairs and fell down them, for her eyes were shut tight. When she hit the bottom of the stairs she jumped right back up and ran outside.
"Saki!" Kire yelled. "You have to go get her wolf necklace! I'll stay with her until then!" And with that she ran out of the room, but she was just a blur to everyone that they barely even saw her run out.
Saki nodded. She reached under her shirt to pull out a necklace with a mini wand charm. She snapped the charm off, and it grew until it came a four feet long staff. The staff was made of gold, and on top of it was a sapphire blue sphere with pure white wings at the side. Then two pure white, feathery wings grew out of Saki's back. She chanted something in an anicent tongue that sounded like rushing water to their ears. Suddenly she disappeared in a flash of bright blue light.
Everyone was dumbfounded at what just happened before their eyes and stood there when they heard another scream. However, this scream of pain somehow changed into a howl of pain. They ran out of the room, down the stairs, and outside. When they saw also surprised them greatly.
There Kire was, kneeling next to Mika's clothes. There was a light grey wolf with amber eyes lying on top of her clothes. The wolf stood up and growled at them all, a deadly look in it's eyes.
Everyone walked up behind Kire and around her, as if drawn to the mysterious wolf.
On instinct, the wolf jumped at the closest person near it. It turned out to be Kyo, so the wolf pushed him into the ground. The wolf stood on top of him, growling, with it's claws ripping through his shirt and digging into his skin.
"No! You can't kill him!" Kire yelled. She was about to run toward Kyo and the wolf, but that was when another bright blue flash came and Saki appeared.
Saki quickly put a necklace made of fangs with a silver orb around the wolf's neck.
The wolf stopped growling as an almost human look came into the wolf's eyes. The wolf quickly jumped off Kyo and howled to the early night sky. The howl sounded as if the wolf was apologizing. Then the wolf ran off into the woods.
"Mika!" Kire and Saki shouted, running after the wolf.
Kyo got up off the ground as everyone else stared in disbelief. "Was that wolf... Mi-chan?" Tohru asked.
"What's going on?" Momiji asked.
"I'm not sure, but we're going to find out," Kyo replied, running in the same direction the wolf, Kire, and Saki went. Everyone else started running too. They kept on running until they heard Kire and Saki talking. They all hid behind trees so that they wouldn't be noticed.
"Mika, please. We have to go back there and explain about what happened," they heard Kire say.
"It wasn't your fault that you tried to kill Kyo," Saki spoke this time.
The wolf wimpered softly as Kire yelled at Saki. "Shut up! It's bad enough as it is! And the people hiding can come out now."
Everyone stepped out from behind the trees. "How did you know that we were here?" Momiji asked.
"I heard you all running and I smelled your scent," Kire answered before turning back to the wolf.
The wolf tried to run away, but Saki caught her before she could. "We have to tell them Mika. They deserve to know."
The wolf started whinning, but didn't put up a fight.
"I think we should go back to the house," Haru suggested in a laid back tone. But he was as eager to find out what was going on as much as everyone else.
They all walked back in silence, each in their own thoughts. The wolf walked between Kire and Saki. At the house, everyone walked into the living. Saki had to fold her wings so they didn't hit anyone, and the wolf layed down on the floor. Then everyone sat down.
"Now, we should we begin explaining?" Saki asked, sitting down next to Shigure.
"Who is this wolf, and where is Mika?" Kyo asked, pointing to the wolf laying down by Saki and Kire.
"I can answer that in one sentence. That wolf is Mika," Kire answered. While everyone else except Saki and she gasped, she said, "If you don't believe me, ask her yourself."
"How can we ask a wolf?" Momiji asked.
'I can still communate through brain waves,' everyone heard Mika's voice in their heads. "And I am the wolf.'
"But how can you be a wolf? You're human," Tohru asked.
'When I was born, a curse was placed upon me,' Mika spoke in their heads. 'Why, I don't know. But every night that the moon shines, I transform in a wolf in a painful way. The only night I don't transform is on the night of a new moon. And I have side effects from the curse.. You know, my grey hair and my amber eyes. And I still have a great sense of smell, sharp eyesight, and abnormal speed. And I have another curse, but I'll let Kire and Saki explain the rest.'
"What about you?" Yuki asked, pointing to Kire. "You were so fast that we barely even saw you."
Kire smirked. "You're lucky that you even see me. The thing is, I'm half-demon." She shook her head, and two black dog ears popped out from beneath her hair. "And I'm cursed as well. About 500 years ago, I ran into Saki. She was cursed to live for all etetnaidy. We became friends, and I asked to be cursed as well. So here I am."
"You're 500 years old?" Haru asked. "So does that mean that you knew InuYasha?"
"You idiot," Yuki said, "InuYasha wasn't real."
"Yeah I did," Kire answered, a dreamy expression coming onto her face. "He was really cute, but he ended up with Kagome. That's a good though. They were made for each other. And I wanted their story to be known, so I stored all of their memories in my head, and then put them all in someone else's head, leaving myself out of all of them. It would be pretty hard to explain way I look like one of the characters."
"And what about you?" Shigure asked, pointing to Saki. "Are you an angel?"
"Only half," Saki answered. "I'm cursed too. We call it the Curse of the Phoenix. We're suppose to live for etetnaidy, but since we're also half human, we die. But then we come back to life, just like a phoenix. I cursed Kire and Mika because they wanted to stay with me. My father was the first angel alive. He angered God because he knew about God's evil plan. So he tried to stop it, but God cursed him, so that he and all of his children can watch his evil plan go on, and we can't do anything about it."
"When you say God, do you mean the same one in the zodica legend?" Haru asked.
"Yeah," Saki answered, looking at them as if she knew something they didn't. "But I still can't help the animals. I'm still can't defeat God."
"So, why did Mika try to kill Kyo?" Shigure asked.
"She didn't have her necklace. Her necklace is very special. It allows her to keep her human mind when she's a wolf," Kire answered, looking down at Mika.
Saki nodded. "Yes. I had to make it out of fangs from people who had similar curses, and silver, because the old myth about using a silver bullet to kill a werewolf is true. But all you need is silver anything. So since she's kind of like a werewolf, it does has it's effects on her. But without it, she'll go on her wolf instincts. That's why she tried to kill Kyo."
'I'm sorry!' Mika cried in their heads before taking off. She ran out the door.
"Mi-chan!" Tohru yelled, standing up.
"We better go follow her," Kire said, standing up as well.
"Yeah. She might try to kill herself again," Saki added, standing up.
"But she'll only come back to life," Yuki pointed out. "So what is so bad about it?"
"Yes, she'll back to life, but since she's in her wolf form, she'll probably drown herself. Because you can't give a wolf CPR or anything. So she'll keep coming back to life and dying," Kire finished explaining before taking off in a blur.
"It wasn't so serious when she killed her parents," Saki commented.
Everyone else gasped. "She killed her own parents?" Momiji asked.
"But that was before I gave her that necklace, so it was the wolf, but she blamed herself. It wasn't that serious, because her parents were distant from her because of the curse. But now she tried to kill Kyo," Saki told them. She turned to Kyo. "She really does love you, you know." With that she disappeared in a flash of bright blue light.
Everyone looked at Kyo, shocked and surprised. Kyo was shocked himself. 'She loves me,' he thought before he turned serious. 'No! I won't let someone kill themself because of me again!' He looked everyone in the eye. "Come on! We have to stop Mika!"
"But how will we find her?" Tohru asked. Suddenly everyone was surround by a bright blue light before they disappeared and reappeared in the air. Everyone screamed in surprise.
"Relax," Saki told them. "You're all on a cloud. You're not gonna fall to you're deaths."
Everyone calmed down to see that they were soaring through the air on a fluufy white cloud. "Why are we up here?" Haru asked.
"You all wanted to help Mika. That's proofs you worthy of being her friends," Saki answered.
"What are you, her older sister?" Kyo asked.
"Yeah. I guess you can call me that," Saki said, laughing. Then her face turned serious. "There she is!" she shouted, and the cloud lowered them all to the ground. There was Mika, standing right beside the lake.
'Don't stop me!' Mika cried in their heads. 'The world in better off without someone who kills their friends and family!'
"Don't do it!" Kire shouted, appearing next to Saki. "You're friends and us will miss you too much!" She ran forward and grabbed Mika before she could jump in.
Everyone ran over to Kire and Mika. "Mika! Don't kill yourself! We all accept you as you are!"
'How can you accept someone who changes into an animal?' Mika asked in their heads.
"We'll just show you!" Momiji exclaimed. He pushed Yuki and Kyo into Tohru. Then he pushed Shigure and Haru. And last he hugged Tohru. There were many poofs of smoke, and when the smoke cleared, Yuki, Kyo, Shigure, Haru, and Momiji was gone. In their place was a grey rat, an orange cat, a black dog, a black and white ox, and a yellow rabbit.
"Why the hell did you do that?" the cat yelled at the rabbit.
"Kyo?" Kire asked. "Whoa, I'm way confused."
The dog sighed. "Looks like I have some explaining to do."
"Shigure?" Kire asked.
"As you can see," Shigure started. "I'm the dog, Yuki is the rat, Kyo is the cat, Haru is the ox, and Momiji is the rabbit. Just like the zodica. Our family has been cursed over generations. We are possessed by the vergeful spirits. Whenever we are hugged by the oppisite gender or are under a lot of stress, we transform into our zodica animal. And we can talk in our respective animal forms. But after a while we change back, but we're completely naked."
"Wow," Kire said in a shunned voice.
"You mean you didn't know?" Saki asked Kire.
"You knew?" Yuki asked before they all changed back in poofs of smoke.
Mika closed her eyes, while Kire and Tohru both screamed, "Ekk!" and turned around as fast as they could.
The boys all got dressed, and Kire and Tohru turned back around. Kire put Mika down and then hit Saki in the head. "You pervert!" she screamed. "You watched them get dressed!"
"So!" Saki yelled back. "There's nothing wrong with that! And I thought you knew about the curse. I lent you some of my books to read."
"So you all knew about us this whole time?" Haru asked.
'I must of read one of Saki's books, but forgot all about it,' Mika thought in their heads. I guess that explains why the name Sohma sounded familiar and it explains your scents.'
"Yeah it does," Kire agreed. Then she started answering the question in everyone's head. "When we first meet you, you scents had a mixture of human and animal. Like Yuki and Kyo. But we just thought that you sent a lot of time with rats and cats. But when we met Haru, we began to wonder why your scents were like this."
"So you suspected something about us too?" Yuki asked. "We were trying to figure out what was with you."
"Hee hee," Saki giggled. "If only we had brought this up ealier, then we could of met halfway."
'Actually, I'm glad this all happened,' Mika thought.
"What?" everyone yelled in surprise. "Why?"
'It showed me that Kire and Saki aren't the only people who care and accept me. Thank you all so much for being my friend,' Mika answered. (A/N: She sounds like Tohru right now, I know. But she did grow up with Tohru as a kid, so I guess in rubbed off.) She bowed her head to all of them. 'Now let's go back to the house. I'm kind of tired from all of the exictment.'
Saki then yawned. "I'm pretty tired too."
Shigure walked up behind Saki and put his hands on her shoulders. "You can spend the night in my room."
"Ooh la la!" Saki exclaimed happily.
Yuki and Kyo hit Shigure over the head while Kire hit Saki over the head.
"But Mika-kun?" Momiji began. "When will you change back?"
'At dawn,' Mika answered. 'And it won't be painful.'
"That's good to hear!" Tohru exclaimed happily. "When you were screaming in pain like that, I felt so helpless because I didn't know what to do to help you!"
"Don't worry," Kire said. "You don't have to feel helpless. It's just something that Mika had to go through with. Now let's go and get some sleep. It's been a long night."
Everyone nodded, some of them sleeply. They all walked back to the house in silence because most of them was half asleep. When they got back, Yuki, Kyo, Haru, and Momiji started aguring about where Haru and Momiji were going to sleep. They decided on where they were going to sleep.
The girls all went upstairs into Tohru's room. Tohru put some blankets on the floor as a bed for Mika. Kire sat in the corner and fell asleep. Tohru and Saki were felt to share the bed. (A/N: To any naughty minded person, GET YOUR GODDAMN MIND OUT THE THE DAMN GUTTER! In the manga and the anime Tohru shared her bed with Uo-chan and Hana-chan.)
'Be careful Tohru-chan,' Mika said in Tohru's mind. 'Sometimes Saki floats in her sleep.'
"No I don't!" Saki shouted.
"Um, it's okay. I won't mind," Tohru replied, unsure of what Mika meant and to stop what looked like the beginning of an agurment. With all that happened, Tohru didn't want them to start aguring.
Mika just settled down in her makeshift bed. 'I really don't want to agure now. I'm too tired.'
"Okay," Saki replied. She jumped into Tohru's bed and fell asleep almost instantly.
'Tohru-chan,' Mika began. 'Thanks for everything.' Then she yawned and put her head on her front paws and fell asleep.
Tohru similpy smiled. "You're welcome Mi-chan," she whispered. Then she changed into her pjs, got into her bed, and fell asleep.
