Yes, I thought of the title because of the author on here, Kaze no Namidawa. Her stories are really great! 'Kaze no Namidawa' means 'Tears of the Wind'. You know like, wind? Horse? Horses running causes wind?
I also thought of the title because nobody really writes any stories about Rin. What a poor little horsey. But anyway, I can't say I'm an expert on Isuzu, but I really like her. She's so… mysterious!
Since I normally write my stories out before typing them, but just decided to start this two seconds ago, it may take a while to update this. But I'll keep trying because I've got some stuff planned for Isuzu and the gang : )

Kaze no Namidawa: The Diary of Isuzu Sohma
Entry One
That loser.
That selfish, moronic, egotistical, bitchy loser.
I cannot believe him.
Who in THE RIGHT MIND would send ME, RIN SOHMA, to the same school as that STUPID NAZUMI, that STUPID NEKO, and that STUPID GIRL!
Well, Akito's not always right in his mind, is he?
That stupid MORON! AH!
This morning when I woke up, Hatori called me on my cell phone. Of course, I was thinking 'Why the hell is Hatori calling me, because I cannot stand to be near any of the stupid Sohma people', so I wasn't really paying attention to his mindless words, but I heard the part where he said I was supposed to meet him and Akito at the Main House at 3:00.
Those idiots think I have nothing better to do on a Saturday afternoon, I guess.
I tried to avoid going but Kagura's mom was all like 'You have to go, honey!'
Shudder. I hate being called honey.
So I was forced to go. But believe me; I took my sweet time walking there. All the stupid Juunishi are so AFRAID of Akito, like he's gonna jump out at them at any random second, but I'm not. I was PUSHED OUT A WINDOW for crying out loud, and I'm not scared of him! What's to be scared of? He's going to croak when he's 30 and then we'll have a big freaking party 'cause that bitch is finally gone. He's always sick all the time! How could anyone be frightened of a kimono-wearer with a cough as mighty as King Triton himself?
I pranced into the Main House without taking my muddy boots off, just so the stupid cleaning ladies would have something to do. See? I think of others. How considerate of me to supply the cleaning ladies with some meaning in their pointless lives. So anyway, I pranced in there right down the hallway to Akito's angsty room, where he was sprawled out on the floor like King of Heaven and Hatori stood next to him like 'Ain't I somethin' special, y'all?'
"Rin, you didn't take your shoes off," Hatori said.
Well, duh! You don't need a PhD to see that.
"Yeah," I grunted. "So why am I here?"
Akito sat up against the wall and held up a slip of paper.
My report card.
"Oh…" I said quietly.
So what if I was failing almost every class except for gym? Education isn't important when you're a freaking HORSE.
"Explain," Akito hissed.
"About what?" I snapped. I like pretending to be stupid! It makes people angry. Banzai!
"Why are you failing out of your school?" Hatori asked, putting his hands on his hips and furrowing his eyebrows.
"Because…"
I didn't want to tell them. They'd probably shove me out the window and go 'Haha! Look! We shoved that damn horse out the window!'
Because I don't do my homework. Because I don't take notes. Because I talk during class. Because I don't pay attention. Because I'm dedicating most of my time to breaking the damn curse.
"…it's hard," I lied.
Akito snickered. I could feel a shove already.
"Is it challenging for you?" Hatori tried to be a good sea horse.
HORSE! Ha! We're both HORSES! But he's a freaking SEA HORSE. At least I got the good animal counterpart.
"No," I told him. "I just don't like it."
"So…" Akito smirked. "Why don't we send you somewhere you will like? Like… what was that school again? The Outside school, Hatori?"
I gulped.
"Do you mean… Kaibara?"
"Yes. That's the one. Where Yuki and the others go. Isuzu, how would you like to go there?"
I'D HATE IT! But I wasn't about to scream at him.
But who does he think he is? He's a year older than me and he acts all pompous like 'Who's awesome? Who do you love?'
And I'm a SENIOR for Kami-sama's sake. I'm graduating in less than a year. Why bother switching schools for one year?
"I don't think so," I replied.
"Well… why not…?" Akito asked in an airy voice.
"I mean… I'm a senior. I only have a year left of school."
"Unless you get held back."
Ugh. HELD BACK. I was going to quit school anyway.
"What's the point? Why do I have to go to school anyway? Can't I drop out?" I wondered, much to Hatori's disgrace.
"Isuzu, education is very important blah blah blah blah!" Hatori shrieked. Well, he didn't really shriek, and he didn't say blah blah blah blah, but I don't remember exactly what he said because his voice is just so BORING who COULD?
"I want to drop out," I told them firmly.
"No," Akito replied. "You shall transfer to Kaibara. The program is much less… what word did you use before, Hatori? Oh yes… challenging. Bring your grades up, Isuzu. Hatori, get the transfer papers ready…" Akito muttered like a scary controlling person who can't remember a word that was used five minutes previous.
Angry, I stormed out of there, making sure to get some more mud all over the place because I'm a nice person and I care about the cleaning ladies having entertainment.
