Hello again my reviewers! I have another urge to write, so here's another chapter for you! I have nothing else to say…Except this, Furie's text has been changed to this style because this text wouldn't show up when I first put up the chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own Fruits Basket. If I did, I would have a bunny buddy named Momiji.

CHAPTER 5: NOISE, BUNNIES, AND DISCOVERIES

Lunch, a small time in the day where you could talk openly with your other students without getting yelled at by a lecturing teacher.

Every student took this chance to talk very loudly, to Kaital's great displeasure.

The loud whispering of the classroom was nothing compared to thousands of teenagers talking.

After about fifteen minutes, Kaital has had enough of the noise.

"Damn my sensitive hearing!"

Kaital banged her fists on the lunch table, making a small dent in the table.

Yuki, Tohru, Hanajima, and Uo all stared at Kaital.

"So…loud…"

Kaital whined as she put her head on the table and covered her ears.

"What's wrong with her?"

Uo looked over at Tohru, who also had no idea what was going on.

"Tohru-chan! Guten tag!"

The group's thoughts were scrambled as a loud yell cut through the air.

Kaital flinched at the yell, which seeped its way through her hands and reached her ears.

A blonde haired boy ran over to the table with a white haired boy behind him.

"Momiji-kun, Haru-san!"

Tohru smiled as her friends approached.

Momiji went to hug Tohru, but Yuki stopped him half way.

"Think of where we are, Momiji."

Yuki sighed and continued eating his lunch.

"What's wrong with her?"

Haru pointed at Kaital, who was now banging her head on the table, making the dent bigger.

Kaital raised her head, a small dot of blood on her forehead.

"Nani?"

Kaital looked down at the dent in the table.

"Heh, heh…Sorry about that…"

Kaital rubbed the blood off of her forehead and smiled at the two boys.

"It's nice to meet you."

"Are you sure that you are okay, Kaital?"

Tohru looked worried, but Kaital smiled at her.

"I'm fine."

"What's with her eyes?"

Haru looked at Kaital quizzically.

Kaital, who was getting sick of that question, retorted.

"What's with your hair?"

"I should be asking the same thing!"

Haru snapped back.

"At least my hair is a remotely normal color!"

Kaital found Haru as fun to annoy as Kyo.

"No it's not!"

Haru was getting really angry now.

"It looks like your head is on fire!"

Kaital just scoffed at Haru and folded her arms.

"So now you're gonna ignore me?!"

Kaital rubbed her temples and stood up.

"I'm going to take a walk."

She stated simply and walked away from the group and the flock of eating and talking teenagers at the lunch area.

"School is giving me a headache…"

Kaital muttered bitterly as she walked to the front of the school and sat on the steps that lead to the main doors.

Momiji, wanting to get to know this new girl, ran after her and took a seat next to Kaital on the stairs.

"Guten tag!"

Momiji said happily.

"Hello."

Kaital said, still rubbing her temples as if it would help her headache go away.

"How do you know Tohru-chan and-chan and Yuki?"

"I live with them, why?"

Kaital stopped rubbing her forehead and turned her attention onto the ever-happy blonde boy.

"Oh…"

Momiji seemed to think for a second, a small frown on his face, but his smile soon snapped back onto his child-like face.

"You must be the girl from the forest that Shigure told us about yesterday!"

"I am…how do you know Shigure?"

"I'm a Sohma too."

Momiji paused to think again, and Kaital sighed slightly.

"How do they find me?"

She asked Furie

"How does who find you?"

She obviously wasn't paying attention to the overly-happy child in front of her.

"The happy people, how do they find me?"

"Why wouldn't you like happy people, they're better me."

"You're right, anyone's better than you."

"You weren't supposed to agree with me!"

Furie whined, obviously hurt by the statement.

"Some vicious demon you are."

Kaital sighed again.

"I have my moments"

"Kaital-chan, did you here me?"

Kaital's attention was drawn back to Momiji.

"Hmm…?"
Kaital didn't want to say that she wasn't paying attention, but her face showed it.

"Can I hug you?"

Momiji stated his question again.

Not waiting for his question to be answered, Momiji wrapped his arms around Kaital.

In a small poof and a puff of smoke, Momiji was replaced with a bunny.

In that moment, Yuki and Hatsuharu came walking around the corner to check on Kaital.

(Well, Haru didn't care much about Kaital, but he was sure that she would've killed Momiji by now, so Haru was really checking up on Momiji.)

Anyway, when the two boys saw the bunny on the steps, Haru slapped his forehead.

"Momiji, she may have been living with them, but she didn't know yet!"

"She didn't tell me that!"

Momiji whined and his ears slopped down sadly.

"You didn't give me time to answer your question!"

Kaital was still in shock that a boy just turned into a bunny.

"Yuki, why is he a bunny?!"
Kaital now turned her confusion onto Yuki.

"It's a long story."

Yuki sighed.

"Keep your back turned to Momiji."

"Why should I d-"

Another poof noise and another puff of smoke greeted Kaital.

"Just keep turned around."

Yuki wasn't in the mood to give the long explanation that these questions were going to need.

After Momiji changed back into his uniform, the small group walked back to the lunch table with a still bewildered Kaital in tow.

Kaital sat back at her spot at the table and put her head (gently this time) onto the table's surface.

"I'm so confused…"

She muttered as she stared into her lap.

"What happened?"

Tohru whispered to Yuki, who quickly returned to his lunch.

"She…found out…"

Yuki said as Tohru sighed.

She looked over at Haru, who was now scolding a very sad looking Momiji about how he shouldn't hug people in public.

Tohru turned her attention back to Kaital, who was now singing quietly.

"Some say
its all fate
but I say we control our lives
and if my destiny should out best me then that's fine.
I make believe thrill and apathy co-exist in me fairly equally
the truth is doubts are all I've got to call mine."

Tohru tapped Kaital on her shoulder.

"What are you doing?"

She asked as Kaital lifted her head.

"Relieving stress…"

She said with a sigh.

"I normally don't like to sing in public, but I'm making an exception…"

"You have a pretty singing voice."

Momiji said as he sat down next to Kaital.

"Thank you…"

Kaital placed her head back onto the table.

"School is a confusing place…"

"But you have to admit, it's entertaining"

Furie giggled.

"Yeah…"

Kaital sighed and waited for the school bell to ring.

That is where I will leave this chapter! I don't know what possessed me to make Momiji be the one to revile the curse to Kaital, but that's how it came out. I originally was going to have Shigure do it…but I figured that would be…odd…
