A/N: Hi! I'm back. Now, on with the story.

Disclaimer: No more disclaimers. It's getting boring. You all know that I don't own Fruits basket. Don't sue me.

Ch. 8- Over the seas

Now Hatori drove them all over to the Dunkin' Donuts near the beach.

"Yes! Finally we're here!" Kyo released the blanket that he held to hide under so that they wouldn't get pulled over.

Yuki got out of the car, and peered over the edge of the roof. "You can untie yourself now."

"Yay!" Momiji was waiting, already bouncing around the car. "The beach and donuts await!"

"And the pretty girls," Haru and Shigure murmured, both to be promptly smacked in the back of the head by Yuki.

As Haru helped Kyo untie himself from the roof (We all know that he doesn't like crowds or perverted ghosts), Yuki, Shigure's ghost (under an umbrella), Hatori, and Momiji went over to the Dunkin' Donuts. Entering the nice establishment (big word!), they immediately saw an envelope taped to the underside of a table. Momiji ran over and grabbed a seat at that table, while Yuki and Hatori went and ordered donuts for everyone.

"What happened to Shigure?" Yuki asked as he and Hatori made their way over to the table Momiji had saved.

"He left," Haru, expressionless as ever, said. Yuki jumped and turned to see Haru standing almost right behind him, and Kyo behind Haru.

"Wait, when did you get here?!" Yuki cried, startled. "I thought you were still untying Kyo."

Kyo rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. "It's something called the front door. Try it sometime."

"As I was saying, he took the car as soon as I got Kyo untied." Haru jerked his thumb over his shoulder at the window as he sat down.

Hatori felt in his pocket for the keys. "Darn. I'll just take my donut to go and walk home."

Hatori grabbed his donut out of the bag (a powdered sugar donut) and left for home (CLFBF: Bye bye Hatori!). Once everyone had eaten their respective donut (Kyo- Glazed, Momiji- Chocolate glazed, filled, and iced with sprinkles and milk, Yuki- Glazed, Haru- Vanilla glazed with chocolate icing), they opened the envelope to see…a tiny slip of paper. It said: By the way, this Dunkin' Donuts is in San Juan.

"Where in the world is San Juan?!" Kyo asked angrily. Yuki, Haru, and Momiji all do a face palm. As soon as they do, a tiny flap on the tiny slip of paper flips open. The group huddled in closer to read the tiny writing.

This time it said: The capital of Puerto Rice. "Where the h--- is Puerto Rice?!" Kyo practically screamed. Even Yuki looked confused. Then another tiny flap on that tiny flap on that tiny piece of paper flips open. It said: Excuse me. Sorry about that.

"Huh?" Kyo raised an eyebrow and scratched his head.

Then another flap flips open. That tiny flap on tiny flap on tiny flap on tiny slip of paper said: Puerto Rico. "D--- it!" Kyo slammed his fist on the table, almost breaking it in half. "How the h--- are we supposed to get to d--- Puerto Rico!?"

"I don't know," said Yuki, the smart one. "The Sohma family doesn't own a private jet, or a boat fit for that kind of distance." As they pondered the question, the small group left the Dunkin' Donuts and started toward home. On the way there, they walked on the boardwalk. Then they passed a candy store. (CLFBF: Cue random guy) Suddenly, a random guy popped up out of nowhere.

"CONGRATULATIONS!" the random guy screamed.

"Wha--?!" Kyo looked startled, and his cat ears popped up.

"YOU ARE THE ONE MILLIONTH GROUP OF KIDS TO PASS BY THIS CANDY STORE AND NOT GO IN!!" the random guy screamed again, although this time it was a little closer to Kyo's sensitive kitty ears.

"Are you hyped up on the candy from this store or something?" Haru yelled back.

"YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESS!!" the random guy screamed even louder.

Kyo was holding his cat ears flat against his head to that the guy wouldn't notice and so that they couldn't get damaged from all the screaming. "You counted the number of groups of kids that didn't come into the candy store?!" he yelped.

The was a very long awkward silence, during which the random guy bounced up and down, Momiji for once just stood there on the ground, Haru stared blankly, Yuki cocked an eyebrow, and Kyo smoldered.

"Any way..." the random guy seemed to have calmed down slightly. The group hoped it would last, but to no avail. "HERE'S YOUR PRIZE. A TRIP FOR FOUR TO...can I get a drum roll here please?" he yelled politely. A drum rolled by from the toy store next door.

"Wow..." Yuki sighed and shook his head.

The random guy pumped his fist in the air. "Yes! PUERTO RICE!"

"Don't you mean Puerto Rico?" Haru stared blankly at him, clearly trying to unnerve him.

"NO! I mean, YES!" The random guy was obviously at least slightly disturbed by Haru.

Kyo shoved out his hand and motioned to the guy. "Just gimme the tickets and we'll let you get back to your candy," He snapped. The random guy produced an envelope from his pocket, then proceeded to throw it at Kyo (who caught it) and bounced up 30 feet in the air, flipped 12 ½ times, landed on his head, got up, dusted himself off, and walked calmly back into the candy store.

"I'm scared," Momiji whimpered

"He's weird," Haru whispered.

"Yeah," Yuki agreed softly.

"Let's get out of here!" Kyo screamed.

Everybody ran for their lives, screaming. Except for Yuki and Haru, who just ran, Yuki pulling Haru on a rope so he wouldn't get lost (again). They arrived at Yuki's house in record time (Or what probably would have been, if someone had been timing it). They went in, took showers, and ate cold shiokara (salted fish guts (Ewwww!)).

So? How was it? It was awesome, right? I'll do what I can to get this updated. I am having a sort of writer's block right now. Maybe it has to do with all this stupid Algebra stuff, or FACS stuff, or maybe frickin' Communications stuff.

Anyway hope you enjoyed this exciting chapter of...
