Brittany: (wipes tears away) I heard there was going to be a Kingdom Hearts 2. Is it true? (eyes sparkle at the idea) Maybe Riku will come back! Yay!

OOOOO

Lauren and Tohru left to get more food from the grocery store. "So…what's that weird sword you're carrying?" Tohru asked. Lauren looked at the Keyblade and hid it behind her back. "Oh it's nothing. Just something my dad got me," she lied. Tohru looked at her suspiciously. "Here we are!" Tohru said as they found themselves at the entrance to the store.

"Let's see, we'll need tofu, noodles…" Tohru listed off a number of ingredients for supper as she took them off the shelf. "Oh, Lauren, can you do me a favor and go to the other side of the store for some bread?" Lauren nodded and walked off.

Just as she got there and picked up a loaf, black Heartless rose out of the ground and surrounded Lauren. "Time for you to learn your lesson," Lauren said, dropping the bread and readying the Keyblade. She swung it back and ran at the Heartless, hitting several of them and making them burst into green balls of life and munny. "What's going on here?" yelled the store manager as he ran into the aisle that Lauren was in. The rest of the Heartless disappeared and Lauren was left standing there with the Keyblade in mid-pose. "Get out of my store before you wreck anything else! Go!" he yelled, and Lauren ran off. Minutes later Tohru came outside to join Lauren in the parking lot.

"Why did he kick you out?" Tohru asked. "Never mind that," Lauren said, grabbing one of Tohru's grocery bags and carrying it. It was silent the rest of the walk home.

Supper was delicious, considering how good of a cook Tohru was. Soon it was time for bed. "Oh, we should really go." Lauren said. "But you have no place to stay!" Tohru pleaded. "You're welcome to spend the night tonight and then leave fresh in the morning! Please stay?" The boys looked at one another and Kyo muttered something. "Oh alright." Yugi said. Lauren nodded and Joey smiled. Everyone was happy, except for Kyo.

Tohru let Lauren borrow some of her pajamas. Lauren changed, and brushed her teeth. Just as she was about to sleep on the couch (doesn't she ALWAYS have to sleep on the couch?), she bumped into Kyo. "Hey, watch where you're going, twerp!" he yelled. "Aw," Lauren said, "It looks like someone needs a hug!" She jumped up and hugged him tightly. "Nooooo!" Kyo said, but it was too late. Lauren fell to the floor and found herself inches away from an orange cat sitting on the pile of Kyo's clothes.

"Kyo!" Tohru said as she stuck her head out of her bedroom door. "Oh Kyo I'm so sorry, I didn't know she would hug you!" Kyo the cat hissed angrily at Lauren, who stood there shocked. "He just turned into a cat!" Lauren said, turning around to Tohru. She looked at Kyo the cat and he was glaring at her. Tohru then began explaining to Lauren about the animals of the Zodiac, and the curse on the Sohma family. Lauren believed every word of her story.

The next day Lauren promised she wouldn't tell anyone of the secret. "Cuz if you do I swear I'll rip your head off!" Kyo yelled at her, now back into human form. "You know, you were such a cute little kitty," Lauren said, petting Kyo's mess of hair on his head. Kyo muttered something and walked to his room.

Suddenly there was a man at the door. He had long silver hair that went down to his waist. He had strange bright green eyes that gave him a snake-like appearance. Without even being welcomed in, the man walked past Tohru and looked at Lauren. "So this is our new visitor!" he said, smiling. The sound of plates crashing turned everyone's attention to the door. Yuki was standing there with broken pieces of glass by his feet, and an unbroken plate in his hand. He was staring at the man. "Ayame what are you doing here?" Yuki said. The man smiled at his little brother. "Yuki! I missed you!" he gave his little brother a big hug. Yuki looked very annoyed. "Again, what are you doing here?" Ayame smiled. "I just wanted to see the new visitor!" Lauren and Ayame introduced themselves to each other, and Lauren introduced Yugi and Joey as they came in from the kitchen, having just had breakfast.

As Lauren went into the hallway to get fresh clothes from the laundry, someone else came through the door. "Uh, hello!" Lauren said at the new stranger. "I'm Lauren, and you?" The person muttered "Haru". "So," Haru said, looking at Lauren's Keyblade, "you're the one that's come to seal this world?" Lauren stared blankly. How did Haru know about her mission? "Don't worry," Haru said, as though reading Lauren's mind. "Akito send me to show you the Keyhole. You'll have to follow me quickly in order to seal it. It won't stay shown for much longer." And without further question, Lauren followed Haru to the main house.

(For all you people reading this, why would Haru even be listening to Akito's orders? I don't know)

10 minutes later Lauren found herself in an empty room exept for a keyhole on the wall. Akito and Haru stood behind Lauren as Lauren lifted up the Keyblade, sealing the keyhole to the world. Haru took Lauren home. "Hey Haru, are you a Sohma?" Lauren asked. It was a stupid question. How else would he be allowed in the Sohma home? Haru was silent, and Lauren was disappointed. She wanted to hug him really bad for some strange reason.

But she continued walking back to Shigure's house. Yugi, Lauren, and Joey waved goodbye and flew off, away from the world of Fruit's Basket.

OOOOO

Brittany: I need ideas for a new world, thank you for reading this story and reviewing!
