I Dont own Fruits Basket - but I do own Mari

Soon, we were stopping at a little house, practically in the middle of the woods.

"It's kind of…cute," I thought to myself, slowly getting out, reminding myself of my strength-timing. Kisa immediately let go of my shirt and disappeared inside.

"She is really attached to Tohru-chan," Momiji told me, and I nodded. Hatori got out of the car, and came to my side.

"Are you sure Akito-kun wont need you?" I asked him, worried about her, back at the Main House.

"She's able to manage a little bit on her own every so often," he replied, with a soft smile. Soon, they approached the front door, but my eyes became slight dizzy. I had to find something to hold on to – and quick. I used the first thing I felt, which was Hatori. He always seemed to be ready to support me if I needed it – and right now, I was completely grateful for him. I smiled appreciatively at him, and he stood their, holding me up, while I just breathed.

"I'm going to go in and let them know," Momiji said, and disappeared inside.

"Let them know what?" I asked Hatori, looking sideways at him.

"To not do anything that could cause you to loose too much of your energy," he answered, and then asked," Ready?"

"I think so," I sighed, standing up a little straighter. I took a couple more deep breaths, then followed by Hatori, entered the house. Instantly, a girl about my age greeted us. I saw Kisa following her, so I knew instantly who this was.

"Hello, my name is Tohru Honda," she said, smiling, and holding out her hand. I took it and we shook hands, and I smiled. She seemed really nice, and so I didn't see why Akito didn't like her.

"I'm Marirra Sohma," I said, my voice surprisingly strong," But you can call me Mari." I was pleased that my strength was being good - so far. We walked further into the house, and soon walked into the dining room. A man around Hatori's age came downstairs with two boys, both around my age.

"Ah!" he said, smiling," Mari-chan! You have grown up so much!"

"Stop being such a pervert," both boys said, whacking him upside the head.

"It's nice to see you again, Miss. Mari-san," one said nicely," I am Yuki, this is Shigure," points to the one whom he had hit, then points to the one beside him," And this is Kyou."

"Shigure…Yuki…Kyou…" I said in thought, remembering what I had learned about them when I had been at the Main House, then out loud I remarked," It's nice to see you all – I just wish I remembered you." I glanced mainly at Yuki, because he had said 'nice to see you again'. He seemed a little embarrassed now, so I smiled, letting him know it was okay. Yuki seemed to understand my expression and nodded.

"So, do you have any preferences on what you would like for dinner?" Tohru asked me, smiling kindly.

"No, not really," I answered, swallowing. My mouth was getting a bit dry, but I didn't want to admit that I was getting weak already. Hatori seemed to notice though, and instantly was by my side.

"Miss. Honda, would you mind getting a glass of water for Mari-kun?" he asked, guiding me toward the table, so that I could sit down comfortably.

"No, of course not!" she said happily, quickly disappearing into the kitchen. I heard a cupboard open, and seconds later, water running. Soon, Tohru was back and there was a cup of water sitting in front of me.

"Thank you," I told her, taking the glass of water, and taking a drink. I noticed my hand wobbling slightly, and hoped no one else did. I was embarrassed already, and didn't want any one feeling bad for me. To my dismay, Yuki must have noticed, because he left the room momentarily, then came back in and was putting a straw in my cup.

"So," Yuki asked," How long have you been conscious?" His eyes were filled with concern.

"For about a little over a week now," I answered, drinking some of the water. With a look into the kitchen I saw Tohru cooking, and Kisa close by, watching her intently, as though she was making sure Tohru didn't leave her sight. Smiling slightly, I took another drink, and then realized that both Shigure and Hatori had left.

"Where are Hatori-kun and Shigure-kun?" I asked, looking around.

"Who knows," Kyou answered from where he was laying, his back towards all of us, looking out the front door. I was shocked at the tone in his voice. Had I done something to him to make him angry at me already? Or had I done something in the past that had hurt him?

"WHY CANT I REMEMBER!?" I fumed at myself, getting more and more frustrated with myself for not remembering.

"Don't worry about him Miss. Mari-san," Yuki said warmly, "Kyou-kun's almost always like that." I looked over at him, and smiled, thanking him. He seemed so nice, and I was glad that he was here. Now, this is someone I really wanted to remember.

"Yuki…Yuki…Yuki…" Nothing came to me. With another drink, I realized the cup was empty. I set it down, grinning sheepishly at my foolishness. I should have drunk more slowly, but I was just so thirsty. Yuki got up and took my cup to the kitchen, getting me some more.

"Mari-chan…Are you alright?" My eyes snapped open, and I realized I must look a little sick or something. Momiji got up and came to my side, and put his hand on my forehead, just like Hatori would have – if he had been here. I've been here at Shigure's for a good three hours, and he and Shigure were still no where to be seen or heard.

"I think so…why?" I asked Momiji, wondering what I had done to make him think something was wrong.

"You're sweating, but yet really cold," Momiji remarked, dropping his hand," I'm going to go find Ha'ri." I nodded, my sight becoming really fuzzy, and soon it was becoming hard to stay sitting. Hatori was quickly in front of me, with a worried expression on his face.

"Mari-kun?" he asked, holding my head softly with one of his hands.

"I have an extra room she can stay in," I heard Shigure's voice say, in a soft, caring tone.

"Thank you … Shigure-chan," I manage to say, before I passed out.

I woke up and found a small towel on my forehead. It was cold, but it was probably warm, or hot even, when it was placed on me. I slowly looked around, getting my surroundings in.

"Shigure-chan…" I say softly remembering what had happened. How long had it been? It was dark, so it was definitely night time. I heard the door open softly and quietly, and looked over. Shigure was standing their, with a small smile on his face.

"How are you feeling?" he asked me, concerned.

"A little better," I answer, seeing if I could still move. It was manageable, but my mind was still a little fuzzy.

"Hatori and Momiji-chan went back to the Main House," Shigure informed me, coming in and sitting down near me," He left you and Kisa-chan here for tonight." I nodded carefully, not wanting the fuzziness to get worse.

"Where is everyone?" I ask, wondering if they were still up, or if they were sleeping, or doing something else to occupy their time.

"Sleeping," he answered," They all have rooms upstairs, and Kisa-chan is sharing with Tohru-chan for the night. You're down here so that you don't have to worry about the stairs."

"Can I ask you a question – Shigure-kun?" I ask him, looking at him sideways.

"Sure," he replied, smiling.

"Is their anything you can tell me of my past?" I wanted to see if there was anything new that he could inform me that Hatori and Momiji hadn't told me. He sat their, thinking by the looks of it.

"Anything specific you want to know?" he asked.

"No, just anything that you know – I feel empty because I can't remember anything," I told him, wanting anything he knew about my past.

"Well – lets see," He said, then started thinking again, then he continued," Your parents where incredible people. One of a kind, very fun to be around. Your father helped Hatori at times, and he also helped Ayaa… That reminds me! Ayame and Yuki are your real cousins! Your father was their uncle."

"Really?!" I asked quietly, shocked in a good way, and thought to myself, "Finally – new information! No wonder I like Yuki-kun so much!

"Yes," Shigure nodded, and then continued," Have you met Ayaa yet?" I stared at him blankly, and then blinked realizing he must be talking about Ayame.

"No," I replied.

"I'll have to give him a call sometime and have him come over… without Yuki knowing of course…" I gave Shigure a quizzical look, and he continued," Yuki doesn't really get along with Ayaa… They are the Snake and the Rat… which might have something to do with it… Yuki and Kyou don't really get along…" I remembered that Kyou was the cat… so it fit if you looked at it in the animal perspective: Cats chase and hunt Rats… as do Snakes, so of course Yuki wouldn't get along with Kyou and Ayame.

"Your mother was a very sweet woman," Shigure continued with information that I wanted," She was like a sister to me – so I had no ill thoughts or anything of her. Every now and then, she'd stay here with you, when you were real little… practically still a baby… but most of the time, she stayed at the Main House – that's where Akito felt she should stay – all three of you. You're parents weren't members of the zodiac, just a part of the family, but they knew of the curse, and had to stay at the Main House." I nodded – Hatori had told me a little about my mom, but some of this was new. I had smiled when Shigure had mentioned her bringing me here when I was younger. Now I was desperate to remember my past. I wanted to remember coming here with her…being with Shigure… possibly playing with Yuki and Ayame… I found my self starting to cry, and I quickly wiped the tears away. Shigure hadn't noticed, and I was glad. I didn't want him feeling bad for me, it was hard enough knowing that I was so close to him, and that upstairs somewhere… my own cousin was sleeping… and I couldn't remember him. It bothered me, and I wanted to remember everything – even the accident.
