Hey there people, I was really happy with the reviews thank you. I didn't think I'd get a single one! But I was proved wrong! For those who were, 'No! Yuki can't be dead! Bring him back!' That's not happening, Yuki's dead, six feet under, and he's staying that way. If you read on you'll find out why… For those who guessed what's going to happen I hate you for spoiling my fun! (That was a joke.) Right, there was one review that stuck out. It was by Tnumfive and I thought I'd comment on that on in particular. I am fully aware of Kureno, I am also fully aware that he once was the rooster of the zodiac, key word there being once. Kureno was cured from the curse, as will Momiji and Hiro. I am also alert who Rin (Isuzu) is, the horse of the zodiac. I know why she was in the hospital that day when Hiro saw her; I know she is meant to be with Hatsuharu. Thank you for trying but believing me, I know my Fruits Basket facts and several spoilers. with that being said! On to the NEXT chapter!

Chapter 2- Bundle Of Joy With a Curse

"How did Yuki-Kun die?"

"Well umm… You see the doctors say that he got a fever during Yale, but it was only a mild case. On the plane ride it worsened and developed into something much larger than a fever. He went to a hospital in San Francisco and passed away there. All because of those damn weak bronchial tubes of his."

"Did he die with pain?" Tohru asked panting her sobs.

"Tohru, I don't think this is the place to b-"

"Please! I need to know, no one told me." Maybe her pregnancy was making her a little over emotional, but the tears kept streaming and it looked like there was no end to it.

"Well, he died slowly but with ease, according to the doctors."

Tohru began to wobble on her feet, swaying to and fro. Kyo dropped the umbrella letting the light sprinkle drizzle on their faces as he tried to keep her steady. "HATORI!" Kyo yelled as the small group began to huddle and crowd around to see the spectacle. Tohru's eyes slowly shut as she exhaled, fainting. Hatori pushed his way through, the huddle hardly budging to let the doctor through. "Tohru," he said holding her wrist and checking her pulse. "She's fainted," he said stating the obvious. "Her pulse is weak! We've got to get to the hospital. KYO! HURRY!"

Kyo drifted out of his thoughts of shock and dismay, "HURRY!" he heard as he looked up to see Hatori clearing a path with help from others. Kyo put an arm behind her back and another beneath her knees and scooped her up. He walked as fast he could to Hatori's imported car. Surprisingly Momiji was sitting on the passenger's side and Kisa was in the back, on the right.

"Prop, her head on my lap," Kisa instructed.

"Where the hell am I going to sit?"

"KYO! Now is not the time! You're endangering the life of your unborn child and Tohru!" Hatori yelled getting into the driver's seat. "Momiji, go sit in the back! Put Tohru's feet in your lap."

"Yes, Har'i," Momiji piped. He was as tall as Kyo now, maybe a little short. Kisa was a couple inches taller than Tohru as well. Momiji's voice had slightly deepened, and he was beginning to fit into the description the student council had thought up of him, five years ago. While Kisa studied to be a middle school guidance counselor, he was in business school, same thing Ritsu had done. While Ritsu was slowing taking over the onsen, Momiji was learning how to run a business, his father's.

"Kyo, hurry! Front seat!"

As they sped down the high way Kisa continuously asked Kyo questions. People change, maybe not so much, but they do. Momiji had matured some but not a great deal; Kisa was still the silent type in her own graceful beauty, but when the subject rolled onto Tohru's well being, nothing could keep her from speaking. "What'd you do to onee-chan?"

"Nothing, I just told her how Yuki died."

"Imbecile," Hatori mumbled; "Didn't it occur to you why we didn't tell her in the first place? The stress could cause the baby to be born premature!" Kyo sat silent to Hatori's right just letting himself get scolded like a little kid for his mistake. "Think before you act retard! She's only seven months! Are you purposely trying to kill that child?"

"Hey, guys…." Momiji said slowly.

"What?" Kyo spat.

"What's this goop?"

"Oh shit, her water broke!" Hatori floored the pedal, "GET HER CONSCIENCE!"

Tohru awoke in a hospital bed, an ivy injection some fluid into her arm. She looked to her feet, her stomach wasn't as round; to her left, Kisa and Momiji squished into a single seat (Momiji getting more space, because Kisa was scooting on him); to her right, hubby-dearest holding a pin bundle.

"How's the baby?" she murmured softly.

Six eyes turned to her. "I'll get Har'i," Momiji said shifting his leg from under Kisa, and walking out.

"It's a girl?" Tohru asked, turning as much as her body would allow facing her daughter. Kyo didn't reply to her question but said, "It'd about time you got up."

"Onee-chan, I'm going to tell everyone you're awake," then she too left the room.

"How long… when'd I go out?"

"It was right after the baby was born, and it's been two hours. Hatori has been having a hard time finding your family's number. I'm not sure if he called or not yet."

"Can I hold her?"

"Sure." Kyo gingerly passed the new born to its mother. Tohru cradled the infant in her arms, its head nestled in the crook of her elbow, pride gleaming in her eyes. "They wouldn't let me in the operation room."

"Operation?"

"They said I needed to calm down, so Kisa was the one in there with you, not me. I'm sorry I wasn't there for the C-section."

There was a knock at the door and Kisa along with Hatori, Momiji, Shigure, and Ayame entered the room. Normally all those people wouldn't be allowed in, however what they didn't know wouldn't hurt them. Not to mention the hospital, is a small Sohma-owned hospital.

"Where are Hana and Uo? And my grandfather?"

"They're on their way, Har'i finally found their number. They were ecstatic when they found out," Momiji chirped with a smile on his face.

Tohru turned to Kyo, "Thank you."

Baffled Kyo looked at her, "For what?" confusion jammed into every word.

"For this," she said as she hugged the babe.

POOF

The bundle of joy was still a bundle of joy, just wrapped slightly differently. Tohru peered down at the tiny rat in her arms; Kyo's jaw hit the floor.

"I assumed this would happen," Hatori said, "The cogs meshed and I had a hunch."

"The rat reborn," Ayame mumbled then upon realizing the child lying in Tohru's arms was the next rat, heavily exited the room.

"Why the hell is he wrapped in a pink blanket?" Kyo burst breaking the after-silence.

POOF

The child was once again in human form, the blanket ruffled and not fitting as well as it had. Tohru put on her grand smile although she knew it meant she would never be able to hug her first child, maybe her only child, her son.

"It seems we ran out of blue blankets," Hatori stated shrugging it off.

Shigure spoke, "Why are you making a fuss now?"

"How was I supposed to know a baby in pink was a boy!" Kyo yelled.

"You didn't even know the gender of your own child?" Shigure asked, "Tsk tsk tsk, shame on you Kyo, you're already a poor father."

"WAH!" The baby cried.

"Okay everyone, leave the family alone," Hatori said pushing them out. "Tohru, do you need me to send someone in to show you how to feed the baby?"

"No, I went to the lessons, I know."

"Okay, just remember to hold your----"

"HEY! She's my wife! LEAVE"

Once Hatori was gone and the baby was eating Kyo decided to talk again, "So what are you going to name it?"

"I wanted to name him after his father," she said with a bright smile upon her face.

"NO! Don't name him Kyo! That's such an ugly name!" someone called from behind the door.

"MOMIJI! SCRAM!" Kyo yelled back.

Tohru giggled, "Kyo you know you shouldn't yell as much now that the baby's here."

"So what about that name?"

"I was thinking Kyon-Kichi."

And there you have it, the second chapter. You see? That's why Yuki had to die. Originally I was going to have Kyo be the one dead, and Yuki be the father, and Tohru's husband, but Yuki's too nice to mind AND it wouldn't fit well… How do you like the baby's name? I think it's a adorable! But then again I wrote the fan fiction! Well… please review!
