She was never loved (Kyo love story) Chapter 3
Why hello there! How are you all? Right now I'm watching the Furuba anime on television and I had an urge to write this while listening to the 'For Fruits Basket' theme. No wait…its Akito's theme! (Spoiler ahead) Did you know Akido is A GIRL?! I screamed bloody murder when I found that out!!! Well, now you'd best read my story before it gets cold! …I MEAN!!!! Whoops, that made no sense…

~Mist's POV~ (with mini recap)
I sensed a presence behind me. I turned around and saw…
"Shigure? Why are you watching me?!" I whispered noisily. "Spying is a bad habit, I hope you realize that!"
"I couldn't find you! Dinner was ready a while ago! I – of course – ate already so you needn't worry about me! Tohru cooked wonderful sushi! I was in heaven!" Shigure replied blissfully.
"Shigure…I don't want to see Akito…not yet at least…" I said, changing the subject. Shigure looked at me warily; I must have caught him off guard. I lowered my head and the blanket draped over my eyes so only my nose and mouth were visible. I felt someone's arm around my shoulder. I looked up at my Uncle who now sat next to me. I buried my face in his robe and whimpered for a second.
"I know you don't." Shigure whispered, stroking my hair like when I was a child. "No use worrying about it…but it is a situation, so no use ignoring it either. We'll just have to wait and hope he doesn't realize that you're living here with us…" I nodded and he grabbed my hand.
"Now let's go get you something to eat!!!"
"SHIGURE!!! I don't like seafood!!!" I yelled. "Damn it! I'll just make some rice!!!"
When we were both downstairs, Tohru and Yuki were talking amongst themselves and Kyo was lying down on the porch. I slid open the kitchen door and headed straight for the rice ball machine. Grabbing a hand full of rice, I placed it in the small contraption. A few seconds later, I took the steaming rice out and shaped it into a sculpture of Akito. Now, at least I can pretend to destroy him. I brought it into the kitchen and everyone noticed my artwork.
"Isn't that Akito?" Yuki said curiously.
"Yeah? So what pretty-boy rat?" I retorted, taking a large bite out of the rice-Akido's ear.
"What an amazing sculpture!!! It looks just like him!!" Tohru exclaimed as I took anther bite into the other ear.
"Yeah, besides for the fact it's earless." Kyo mumbled from the porch.
"How did you know I was the rat?!" Yuki asked and I took a bite out of the nose of my sculpture.
"Because I hate you and the wolf zodiac hates the rat no matter what. That's how I know dumbass." I said irritably. With that said I quickly ate the rest of my rice ball and went back to my perch on the roof.
When I was back on the roof, I wrapped myself in the blanket but not so that it also purposed as a hood. I lied down on my side and fell deep asleep.
~Kyo's POV~
I laid on the porch as Tohru and Yuki babbled on. I peered every few seconds at Shigure, just in case he did something perverted. When I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye, I didn't see him. I rose up and looked at the spot where he was standing. "Damn it, where did he go?" I asked myself. Tohru and Yuki turned to me.
"Who?" Tohru piped. I got up to see if he was in his office, though he wasn't.
"Shigure, he's not here anymore!" I yelled. Yuki gave me a 'you're-so-stupid' stare. "What are you staring at, you damn rat!"
"He said he was going upstairs to find Mist. She didn't come down for dinner." Yuki stated.
"I hope she likes fish…" Tohru added somberly.
"I knew that! I was just…just…I was just testing you!" I lied hesitantly. I quickly laid back down. A few minutes later, Mist and Shigure walked into the kitchen. While Shigure stayed in the dining room with Tohru, Yuki, and I, Mist trotted into the kitchen. She then came out with a rice ball that reminded me of Akito. Before I could ask anything, Yuki questioned, "Isn't that Akito?" Mist first response was biting off the rice-Akito's left ear.
"Yeah? So what pretty-boy rat?" Mist retorted. I wanted to break out laughing, but I controlled myself.
"What an amazing sculpture!!! It looks just like him!!" Tohru squealed and Mist took a bite out of rice-Akito's right ear.
"Yeah, besides for the fact it's earless." I mumbled, hoping no one heard me. But then, Shigure shot me a glance and I knew everyone heard me. Well, whatever. It isn't like I said it sucked or anything.
"How did you know I was the rat?!" Yuki asked and Mist took a bite of the nose. Before answering, I thought I saw her smirk.
"Because I hate you and the wolf zodiac hates the rat no matter what. That's how I know dumbass." She said irritably. She quickly finished her rice and went back upstairs. Shigure burst out laughing.
"My, my Mist hasn't changed a bit! I remember when she first called Ayame a bitch! Oh man, I laughed hours on end! She can be a badmouth!" He laughed again.
"Kick her out. She doesn't deserve to live here if she's going to call me a dumbass. Burn her, now." Yuki said.
Shigure looked at him. He smiled and said, "Too bad! I told her she could stay here, so she's staying! This is my house. I can easily send you back to Akito if I want to."
"I can't stand that rat! Send him away now, will ya?!" I yelled at him.
"Only if he tells me to burn my niece again!!" Shigure cooed happily, skipping into his office. I got up and headed for the stairs. I walked up them and down the hallway until I reached the window that I used to get up on the roof. But when I was finally up on the roof, I saw Mist sleeping away. I gawked at her sleeping figure.
"What's she doing here?" I whispered to myself.
I hauled myself onto the roof and next to her. I looked down at her suspiciously. God, can't she share a room with Tohru??! I glanced up at the sky. When I looked back down at Mist, she almost looked familiar. But was that possible? I lied down on my side and continued to watch Mist; determined to figure out why she looked familiar. Had I seen her around town? No, impossible, she just moved here. Maybe, because Shigure is her Uncle, she visited and I saw her when we were younger. Did we talk? Why do I even care? ARGG!! I stood up irritably and was beginning to leaving until I heard Mist mumble to herself. "Mmm…I…love…NO! AKITO…leave…him alone…I don't care if…it's…against…you…I love…him." She appeared as though in a terrible dream. She continued yelled and talking about a guy she loves. He must be from the zodiac, because Mist wasn't one to care about what Akito thinks. I gave Mist one last glance before leaving her on the roof.
~Mist's POV (the next day)~
I woke with a start. My dream, about the fight Akito and I had about my love to the cat, had surprised me. When I first fell asleep, it was dreamless. But after only a short while, something activated that memory. But…what?
I climbed down to the window. Then, I escaped to the upstairs bathroom, luckily unoccupied. My backpack had many high school uniforms in it. I grabbed the mini-skirt first and then the top. Tohru, Yuki, Kyo, and Shigure were already eating when I made it downstairs. I sat down as well, but I didn't eat anything. Tohru gave me a worried stare. "Are you sick?!" she asked me, feeling my forehead. I wiped it away.
"I'm fine, Tohru. No need to call 911." Despite the usual way I act with people, I smiled at her.
We all walked to school together. Tohru, Yuki, and somewhat Kyo were talking to each other while I mindlessly walked behind them. Without knowing, I waltzed right into someone.
"Sorry…"I told the stranger as I began to walk again. Before making it too far, the person grabbed my hand.
"Mist? Is that you?" The stranger's voice was oddly familiar. I turned around and saw Rin.
"Rin?!" I turned fully around. "Wow, longtime, no see. How long's it been? Six years or seven?"
"I'm sure it was seven; the last time I saw you, you were nine. How's your zodiac?" Rin asked. As I was about to answer, more familiar voices were heard in the distance.
"MIIIIIISST!!!!" Kagura was yelling. Behind her Haru, Momiji, Kisa, and Hiro were running to see me. Seeing Kisa made my heart stop. It had been so long. She was five the last time I spoke with her, now she was twelve. Kisa was right in front of me before I knew it. She inspected me for a second and then broke into tears.
"MIST!!!" she cried.
"Kisa…" I opened my arms and hugged her. "It's been forever. I'm so happy you remember me."
"I can't forget you!!" Kisa said in a cute voice. "Onii-chan!" (Big sister) She looked at Tohru and smiled. "This is my Onii-chan! Tohru, you're my Onii-chan as well!" I looked at Hiro. He watched me with suspicious eyes. I let go of Kisa and stood in front of him.
"Hey, little dude. What's wrong with you?" I asked. He glared at me.
"Get lost old lady. Who are you anyway?" Hiro said bitterly.
"What a cold, little heart." I said coldly. "I feel loved…" I'm not loved, truly, by anyone. I can't even trust Kisa-nii or Shigure as I could.
I began to leave them all behind when Haru stopped me. He grabbed my waist with one hand and towed me back. My face was beat red. "Let me go pervert!!!" I screeched while flailing my arms around, trying to overpower him. I decided to let it go, remembering how we were just like siblings and that I wouldn't want to hurt him, anyway.
"You know, Mist." he said, grabbing my face with his free hand. "You remind me a lot of Rin. Are you sure you two aren't related?"
"The only way we're related," I started. "Is the fact my father was a Sohma like the rest of you. She's only one of my many cousins." He nodded slowly and put me down.
After many long "goodbyes" and hugs and Hiro's bad attitude, Haru, Momiji, Tohru, Kyo, Yuki, and I left for high school. At the front door there were millions of Yuki fan girls waiting to say 'hi', but after catching a glimpse at me, they were off running. I laughed, pitying their fear of me. Tohru's other friends, Uo and Hana, were also waiting for us at the front door.
"So I see you found Mist?" Uo smirked. Everyone nodded except me.
"You are a Sohma, are you not?" Hana asked. I flinched.
"And how did you know that?" I retorted bitterly. She didn't answer.
The classes went by slowly and I soon regretted not staying in my gang (mentioned on INFO page). They won't accept me back with open arms as they had when I first joined though. After killing Rika, I escaped my gang, called the Hikari Muka, (don't ask me what that means, I thought it sounded kewl) and would sometimes spy on them. One night, they burned Rika's body and said an oath that they would find me and kill me for my horrible deed. I had quickly sped away, determined to get as far away as humanly possible from them. I then realized going back to Hikari Muka would be the death of me and decided that staying here was best. And who knows, I may even find the cat…someday.
THE END TO CHAPTER 2!!!!!
