Chapter 4

Ok, sadly i have to say this...i do not own fruits basket, but as i have said i do own the tzusaki family so if ya wanna borrow them, then ask me!

Kyo: By the way...why the hell did you have me go into Lore's room to seem them naked!

Katt: well i thought it'd be funny

Chase: you planned this all along, just to get your story didn't you?

Katt: guilty as charge, now if you boys don't settle down I'm going to go get Kathy-lee and Kagura in here and lock you four in a closet together.

The boys turned pale and passed out

Katt: Ok enough of that, let the show begin!

Everyone sat down as Karla came in, holding a huge, old brown book. She sat down with Tohru and her cousins hoping that the Sohmas were over the major shock of seeing her like that. " OK! anytime someone wants to explain...WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED!" said Kyo. " I'm surprise that you and Kyo don't remember" said Shigure. " What do you mean?" said Yuki. " Well...remember that little girl and boy with their three older cousins and her parents talking to our parent's Yuki and your parents Kyo..." said Ayame". They had to think abit, but it hit them. " Wait a minute, that can't be the same girl who used to wear that stupid necklace of a white rock on leather string" said Kyo. Then Karla brought out with her that same rock on leather string, except it wasn't an ordinary rock, it was a white diamond crystal. " Yes Kyo...the very same one" smiled Karla. " But weren't they the richest people in japan?" said Yuki. " Yes and now were the richest in both Japan and America" said Lore. " How did you and all of your cousins manage that Lore?" said Hatori. " Easy...each of us have a piece of a stock, some more then others, but with these stocks we've been hitting it big in both Japan and American and Karla; the most of all. She's a real gambler" said Lore " but i thought she wasn't old enough to have stocks" said Shigure. " We've arranged somethings so that she could, she; just by herself is a multi-billionair for her stocks and her buisness skills" said Trete " What! how could that be possible!" said Kyo. " Cause my stocks are half the stocks on all of the manga/anime companies for both Japan and America and...I own twenty-five persent of the stocks for the movie stores, computer stores and candy stores in America" said Karla with a satisfied smile on her face. " Wait, how could you have all those stocks?" said Kyo. " Oh Karla can be very convincing, even at her age" said Trete. " Meaning all she had to do is show up at the company's meeting, wearing her little buisness suit and skirt with that form of hers on" said Lore.

(Ok as for the stocks thing, it was just for fun, i have no clue if anyone owns those so, nope i do not own those stocks or any stocks, just to put that out there)

As they were getting more answers and more off-track, Kyo just got more confused. " Ok how's that possible? no...wait don't answer that, i still want to know What the Hell is going on!" said Kyo. " Oh right...well i guess we never told you guys the truth about the Tzusaki family" said Shigure " They're Irish-Japanese" said Hatori. " Yeah, so? what's the point?" said Kyo. " Remember the Celtic legends mom used to tell us when you were young?" said Ayame. " Well I do remember one that was a lot like the zodiac, except that it was the twelve witches and extra witch of Ireland, who got cursed by a evil sorcerres and then something about their firmilers" said Yuki "exactly, that's what we are" said Lore as Yuki and Kyo looked at her with wide eyes. " Yes, we are the twelve witches...and the thirteenth witch of Ireland, its legend that the thirteen witches were cursed by a evil sorcerres because she wasn't invited to the all hallows eve banquet which a certain witch told her without thinking" said Karla " Hey, it wasn't my fault that my ancestor was being stupid" said Chase. " Yes well thanks to that same witch they were cursed that every other generation the thirteen witches would be reborn with their firmilers" said Lore " " but there's a trick to it...if someone by the opposite sex hugs us well we...turn into animals, but if were hugged by the same sex then we transform into our firmilers human form as you can tell with me" said Karla " So then...your a dog?" said Yuki " Sort of, you can say this is were the real difficulty comes in for Karla, you see she has more then one firmiler, which just makes her the most powerful witch out of the thirteen because she has five firmilers, one for each element. The dog; earth, the rabbit; air, the dragon; fire, the cat; water and the rat; spirit. Those are her five elements and her five firmilers and what makes hers so difficult is that if someone huggs her, doesn't matter same or opposite sex, if they are, for example a dog in the zodiac then she's going to transform into her dog form, and samething with rabbit, dragon and cat, but if any other zodiac animal hugs her or if its the rat then she'll transform into the rat" said Lore.

" So that explains why you wouldn't hug Tohru and that tohru wouldn't..." then the thought just hit Yuki. " You knew about all of this didn't you Tohru?" said Yuki. " Yes...i did. I'm sorry you guys" said Tohru, with sadness in her eyes. " Now now Tohru, it couldn't of been helped, you were keeping their secret as well as ours, even after they moved you never told a single soul their secret and that's nothing to be sorry about" said Shigure. " Hey wait a minute, what do you mean our secret?" " Its ok Kyo, we already know about the zodiac curse on you guys" said Lore, Yuki and Kyo looked at her confused. " Our parents told us, they told us everything back when we were small, but we knew back then whats it like to hide a secret so we never told, not even to Tohru, so when i heard that she was living with you guys, i was amazed and yet sad, i never got a chance to thank your mom for everything she's done for me Tohru" said Karla " Its ok, we can go visit her sometime if ya want" Tohru smiled as she patted her hand, but then Karla had a chill down her spin and paled. " Lore quick , bring me my Kimono from the closet!" " What! already?" Lore ran and grabbed her robe and tossed it to her. SHe stood up and caught just in time, cause the minute she caught it, she transformed back and there was smoke again, just not enough to cover all of her like last time and was happy that she got her robe on before anyone could see anything. " What the hell?" said Kyo as the smoke cleared and seeing Karla wrapped in her Kimono. " That's one more thing we have to this curse, when we transform back, we loose all of our clothes, except for our underwear for some reason" said Lore.

They streatch and yawn as the sign that says they are tired and ready for bed. " Man what a day...oh and before i forget..." said Karla as she punches Chase on the arm. " Oww, what the hell did you do that for?" " you spilled soda on my clean floor!" " no i didn't Ruka spilled water on the floor on purpose so that you could fall on Tohru like that" said Chase. Karla got up real slowly and walked towards Ruka, kneeled down next to her and...but her in a headlock and gave her a nookie. " Next time kid, don't pull such pranks, you could of hurt me and Tohru!" " Ok I'm sorry" said Ruka. " Now go home!" said Chase. " Ohhh, but i want to stay and be with Momiji, pleeeeeeeeaaassee Karla?" she couldn't help it, Ruka gave the puppy dog look and...she just laughed. After she calmed down, she smiled. " Well alright, you can stay" said Karla. Both Ruka and Momiji cheered as they got up and ran around and went to the porch to look at the stars.

At that moment, something came to Kamiko's mind. " Oh, by the way..." Karla and Chase looked at her, not knowing she was still here. " You two start school on Monday, no excuses" both Karla and Chase turned pale, not giving a chance to argue or say anything. " Well could you atleast tell us what school well be going?" said Karla. " To just summon it up...You'll be going to Tohru's school" Karla smiled and hugged Kamiko for doing that. " Oh this is going to be great, the dangerous quartet is back!" said Karla. Kamiko sighed at the chaos that would be happening all over again. Karla looks at the time and calls out for Ruka and Momiji to go to bed.

That night as everyone's asleep. Karla sat at the porch watching the stars, thinking to herself. " Wow its beautiful tonight...Man its been an interesting day today and...Hatori...He's had such sadness in his eyes since he saw me this afternoon. I wonder why. Maybe...he just...doesn't want to...be with me anymore. Maybe...i bring him... sadness. Maybe that's why he looks so...sad" at the though of that her own eyes start to take the same effect of sadness and frowns at it. She stands up and kind of leans against the door. " Or maybe...he's found...someone else to love, he has to of by now, i mean there has to be another girl in his life, even after what happened to me and his first love." she pauses for a moment to relive that moment in her mind, then thinks again " And to think...it was all because of Akito that this had to happen, oh Hatori, if you did find love again, i hope that this time, nothing ruins it." her eyes start to water up as the thought of another woman with Hatori hits her heart, even though that all she wants for him is to be happy...even if its not with her.

She turns around to head back to her room when she bumps into something. She didn't realize till she looked up and saw that it was Hatori himself. She blushed abit and right away stepped back and bowed. " Sorry, i didn't mean to bump into you like that, i didn't see you, it was so dark...I'm sorry" he walked closer to her and gently layed his hands on her shoulders, which had her bring her head back up and with one motion he pulled her close to him and held her. His face, laying on top of her head. He closes his eyes as he crys on her head. He stood himself straight. Looking into her eyes and knowing how much he missed her.

" What's wrong Hatori?" Karla said with such care and tenderness in her voice, it almost made Hatori cry again, for its been so long since he's heard her talk that way to him. He smiled at her and hugged her once more, but this time he leaned over so that his face was right next to hers and whispered in her ear " Nothing's wrong...I just missed you so much. After you left, i became cold snow once again, cold snow without his spring and even thought its been two years without spring, my spring looks just as beautiful as when she left" He stood straight once again and caressed her cheek softly as he gazed into her eyes. " Even after two years Karla...I still love you" She blushed and gasped, but before she could say another word Hatori, leaned forward and kissed her on the lips. He saw that look in her eyes, the same look that told him that she loved him too when they first confess to each other. He truely felt the icy snow in him melt away as the warmth of her lips tingled all the way down his body to have spring come back. they parted just for a moment, long enough for Karla to say something. " Hatori..." " Yes my love" " I...love you too" she smiled and showed great passion in her eyes as they once again kissed and this time, he lifted her off the ground and spun around abit, laughing. As he put her down he somewhat went back to being serious. " But we cannot tell Akito about this" said Hatori. " Yes or the fact that I'm even back to start with" " Yes and...we can't tell the others...not yet" " Fine with me, as long as i have you" she smiles and kisses him on the cheek as she heads back to her room. " good night" they both said to each other as they head towards their rooms for the night.
