FF stuff: I'm really hyper right now…I am in one of those random moods. Oh, and for this fanfic, Akito will be a male, for now, might change! I don't know if he/she is a him/her so if anyone knows for sure, let me know…anyway, back to typing…

Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket, if I did…I don't know, AHH mind freeze, write!

Warning: some ShigureXAkito, nothing horrible, don't read if you are just plain ignorant, i hope no one is because that would be sad...

Thanks to all of you who reviewed, you made me feel really warm and fuzzy inside. If you don't review again, i might stop, i have more written but it's not very good so it might never make it onto Fanfiction. Sorry!

"Now, Shigure, who said she was a Sohma?" I sneer. No one is a Sohma unless I say so, and I gave no such orders. I narrow my eyes dangerously but keep the rest of my face carefully blank. They cower before me. Shigure lowers his head.

"I'm sorry Akito, I wasn't thinking when I said that" he silently pleas with me not to get mad.

"Weren't thinking that I would find out or wasn't thinking that I would mind? Tell me Shigure, do you think you can imagine my thoughts, can you read minds?" I glower at him.

"I'm sorry Akito; I don't pretend to understand your mind. I disobeyed you, I disobeyed one of the original laws…" he whispers.

"Yes, you did, and do you remember who wrote those laws?" I purr as I bend down and lift his face to mine. His eyes are clouded with fear. I bask in that fear, it gives me life.

"Yes Akito, it was the original God of the Zodiac…"

"Very good; now, why would you disobey those laws? It could cause a lot of damage……especially for Miss Honda." I glance towards Yuki and Kyo, they both have confusion and fear written on their features.

"Again, I apologize." His eyes sink back to the floor. I release my hold on him and stand.

"Well, apologizing isn't going to help much…" I pause.

He looked up at me and I swiftly backhand him. He fell to the floor and slowly drags himself up again. I turned to Yuki and Kyo and order them out. I wanted to talk to the dog alone. As soon as they left I slide over to the door and lock it. Shigure looked frightened. I bask in the feeling of power, the balance was correct. I walk over to Shigure and kneel beside him. I gently run my hand up his back and into his dark locks. He had yet to look at me. I yank harshly at his hair and brought his eyes up to meet mine. I saw no fear there, only emptiness. I let out a harsh growl and sent him back to meet the floor harshly. The fall nearly broke his nose, oh well, he looks fine to me. I crawl over to him and flip him so he was on his back and I was straddling him. I lean down so that our bodies molded together. I bring my lips onto Shigure's gently at first, then rougher. He expertly slid his tongue into my mouth and began to explore. I force his tongue out of my mouth with my own and took the lead kissing. I slide my hands down his chest; I knew what I was doing. When Shigure brings his hands up to remove my robe, I slide off him and left him on the ground. He looks at my strangely and then sits up and once again kneels before my feet.

"Know this Shigure, The girl will pay for the breaking of an ancient law, but you…will be spared, isn't that what you want. All you ever care about is yourself, no matter how you look at it; you are using the girl, even more than I am. It's only right for her to suffer the consequences of being your pawn. Oh, don't worry, she will come back to you, scared, broken, and lost. No one will help her nor save her, she can't be saved, not from me. Understand Shigure, I don't know the full extent of your plan, but I do know that girl is involved. After her time with me, she will be broken. The others will take more time, but I will have all the time I desire" I turn to him and see distress on his features. I smile as I pet his head lightly, as you would a dog. "Now Shigure, why are you sad? Do you care for Miss Honda? Do you care about her happiness?" I wait for an answer.

"Yes Akito, I do care about her…" he answers, eyes glued to the floor. I laugh. He has given me the perfect opportunity.

"So you care for the girl? Do you care about her enough to disobey me?" it's a trap and he knows it.

"No Akito, I will never disobey you" he hangs his head in shame.

"Good Shigure, very good because you know that would affect everyone living in your home at this time correct?"

"Yes Akito."

"Good, get the others." Everyone enters, including Tohru. Shigure looks a bit shaken but not too noticeable. I turn to her. "Miss Honda?" I snap.

"Y-y-yes Akito" She stutters.

"Don't stutter."

"Very well Akito."

"You may join us for New Years on a few conditions."

"What conditions?"

"Every member of the Zodiac and the cat must be peasant at New Years and stay here at the main house until I release them, and you must not interfere, no matter what" I say as I turn and give her a wicked smirk.

"Very well Akito" She bows her head in submission. I smirk; she could be tamed, in time. I look at the others and they all had confusion written all over their faces. Never the less, they nod their agreement. I smirk.

"Now leave and send in Hatori, he will inform you when it is your turn." I order as I turn away. They all obey except the mutt; he never listens to me anymore. I turn my head so I could see him from the corner of my eye and coax an eyebrow.

"Why?" Was his simple reply to my unspoken question.

"This way I can ensure they are all at New Years, also, while you are all occupied with these meetings, Miss Honda will be left all alone, very vulnerable if anyone were to anger me" I let the threat hang. He got the point I was hinting at.

"You aren't going to allow her to stay here with us?" He asks with wide eyes as he stares at me.

"It's a possibility, but, it would take persuasion…, and patience, both of which you can't handle" I hiss. I can't take his presence much longer.

"Oh, come on you don't mean that." Shigure whispered in my ear as he placed his hands on my hips. When did he get so close? I begin to panic.

"Get off me you bag of fur" I growl. He simply steps closer so our bodies are molded together; I whip around so I am facing him. He has a horrible, evil, glint in his eyes. He bends his head down so our lips nearly touch again. My hands find his chest and I shove him away. Without him to support me, I fall, ending with both of us on the floor on opposite sides of the room.

"What was that for you cur?" I snap as my voice returns. He sits up grinning.

"I was merely trying to persuade you, like you told me to." He smirks.

"That's not what I meant and you know it you stupid dog!"

"Do I?" He taunts me. He dares to taunt God.

"Yes, you learned that a long time ago, and so did I! Now, GET OUT!" I scream.

"Yes Akito" Shigure says casually as he leaves. I catch a glimpse of Hatori standing outside the door, letting Shigure out; they stop and talk for a moment before Hatori steps into the doorframe. I motion him in.
