I

I always sucked at hide in seek.

I was so easy to find because I just stuck out. Trying to hide in the shadows when your skin is pale and white isn't the easiest thing to do, you know. Albinism has its advantages, as well as it's disadvantages, so unless I hid while naked in the snow, the game hide and seek was not one of the advantages.

Ironically, hide and seek was one of my favorite games...

Yeah I loved hide and seek, I would play it at night with my friends and family all the time...

Notice I'm talking a past tense...

Hide and seek was just a pointless kid game now.

It had no meaning.

It couldn't effect my friends or family.

Nothing special at all…

until now that is.

"Ashley! Wake up!" I heard some one yell.

"Five...more...minutes." I mumbled.

"Like hell your getting five more minutes! GET OFF OF US!" I heard the same person shout, but this time it came from right beside my ear.

So I just rolled over, ignoring the 'OW's' and the complaints, and opened my eyes. My eyes ached to close again, to shield themselves from the sudden burst of light, but I forced them to stay open till they got use to it.

Which is not a easy thing to do by the way.

Everything around me was bright. Even the clouds, though gray, held a certain glow. I was at a park that was complete with a slide, tire swing, ring around the rosie, and swings. Every thing looked so shiny and new. Which is weird because I don't know any park where I come from that didn't have everything covered in rust. I suddenly heard voices from the direction I used to be laying in, so I turned my head towards the sound.

"Yay she finally got off of us!" said a tan girl with curly light brown hair.

"Gosh, she looks so light but when she's actually laying on you she's really heavy." Said a fair skinned girl with wavy dirty blond hair grumbled

"OKAY WHO DIDN'T GIVE ME FIVE MORE MINUTES!" I yelled, still looking at the sky, because I didn't think they deserved to be blessed by my gaze.

~OMIGOD STOP JUDGING ME! GO GET YOUR OWN STORY! AND WHAT ABOUT REVIEWING LAST CHAPTER, HUH? MY LIFE NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU TO REVIEW FOR? YOU WILL RUE THE DAY YOU READ ABOUT MY LIFE WITHOUT REVIEWING! I REALLY WISH I HAD AN ELMO CORNER RIGHT NOW! YA THAT'S RIGHT AN ELMO CORNERNOT A STUPID EMO ONE!~

"I did!" The tan girl said, raising her hand.

I just stared at her for a while, like a predator sizing up her prey. I narrowed my eyes and looked her up and down briefly. Then what did oh-so-amazingly-mature me do, you ask?

I elegantly flipped her the bird, delicately stuck my tongue out, and finished it off with a nice 'EFF YOU'. I thought it was a perfect 10, but the judges didn't agree for some reason…

"Wow, Ash...is that any way to treat your friends?" Shayne asked in faux shock.

"Maykala! Kasey!" I squeeled happily.

"Ash!" they screamed at be, just as happy.

Just then a girl flanked by two guys walked up to us.

They seemed familiar…wait a second…THAT'S TOHRU HONDA, YUKI SOHMA, AND KYO SOHMA! THEY'RE FROM THE 'FRUITS BASKET' MANGA I WAS READING EARLIER!

"Are you alright!" Tohru asked politely.

"Maybe." All three of us said, in perfect unison.

"Well, I'm Tohru Honda! Do you have a place to stay?" She started of in a cheerfully bright voice, but ended with a worried tone.

"No?" We said, all together again.

"WELL YOU CAN LIVE WITH US!" she squeeled happily.

Cue our fangirl screams, and a Tohru one. Yeah that's right a Tohru squeal. GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

So there we all were, skipping merrily into the sunset, on our way to the Sohmas' house. Where our many adventures with the Sohmas would begin…

~PSYCH!

NOW THAT'S WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS WAS A TOTAL UNREALISTIC FANFICTION! BUT DID IT? NOOO, BECAUSE MY CHARACTER'S SHALL SUFFER HELL! MUWAHAHAHA! Now this is what really went down…~

"Ashley! Wake up!" I heard some one yell.

"Five...more...minutes." I mumbled.

"Like hell your getting five more minutes! GET OFF US NOW!" I heard the same person yell but this time they yelled it in my ear.

So I just rolled over, ignoring the 'OW's' and the complaints, and opened my eyes. My eyes tried to close from the sudden light, but I forced them to stay open until they got use to it. Which is not an easy thing to do by the way.

"OKAY WHO DIDN'T GIVE ME FIVE MORE MINUTES!" I yelled, still looking up at the sky, because I didn't think they deserved to be blessed by my gaze.

"I did!" The tan girl said, raising her hand.

I looked at her a while. I scrutinized her with my eyes while looking her up and down, predator like. Then what did oh-so-amazingly-mature me do, you ask?

I flipped her the bird, stuck my tongue out, and finished it off with an 'EFF YOU'.

"Wow, Ash. Is that any way to treat your friends?" Shayne asked.

"Yeah! I thought you loved us!" The dirty blonde, otherwise known as Kasey, cried.

"WE WOULD HAVE GAVE YOU FIVE MORE MINUTES IF YOU WEREN'T SO GODDAMN HEAVY! LAY OF THE CHEETOES WOULD YOU!" The tan, otherwise known as Mikeala, said.

"GUYS CAN'T YOU SEE HALF OF THIS CHAPTER IS THE SAME?" Shayne yelled.

"WHAT CHAPTER!" Mikeala and I yelled.

"THE CHAPTER OF OUR LIVES!" Shayne yelled back.

"Guys…your attracting a crowd!" Kasey said quietly.

And what do you know, we turn around, and a bunch of kids were gawking at us. They were scare crapless too. What, I can't cuss all the time in my mind, that would be bad because cussing can be annoying.

"HEY! YOU STUPID KIDS! GET OUT OF HERE!" Mikeala yelled while waving her arms in the air.

"STOP IT YOU EL-STUPID! THEY CAN TELL US WHERE WE ARE!" I yelled.

"What do you mean? I thought we just got drunk and went to the park or something." Kasey said.

"That...that would explain why it hurts trying to remember." Shayne said putting her hand to her head.

"Wait! You don't remember the demon or falling into the TV?" I asked franticly.

"Wow your really losing it aren't you?" Mikeala stated calmly.

"NO, I'M NOT LOSING IT! …AND WHATS WITH YOUR MOOD SWINGS!" I yelled at her.

They are completely clueless.
