Kami finished packing up the picnic basket and smiled. They had finally decided on a day and jobs yesterday. Kami was bringing the sandwiches. But since they all lived together, she volunteered on packing up the other Kibaru's stuff. It didn't bug her.
"Where are you going Kami?" A shiver ran down her back as Yukio spoke. She turned around and found him leaning up against the kitchen door.
"I'm going on a picnic with a few friends from my class. It sounded like a good idea while the weather is nice."
"A picnic… Is that such a good idea?" Yukio walked over and looked at the food in the basket.
"I'll be fine… I'm going with Shouta, Yin, Miyako, Natsuki and Aki. We'll all look out for each other."
Yukio stared at her for a few moments in silence. She knew he was trying to decide if he would forbid it, or let them go. "Very well, but be careful. I won't be there to protect you."
"We will." Kami nodded, grabbing up the basket. "Goodbye." She quickly headed out and rounded up her five younger cousins. Kami didn't really relax until they were outside the family compound. "Alright we're all ready now."
"You seem less tense Kami, something happen?" Miyako asked.
"No, I'm fine. There's nothing to worry about. Now come on or we'll be late." She hooked arms with Natsuki. "Hopefully the others remembered their assignments."
"The only one I'm worried about is Haru." Natsuki laughed. "He's got a horrible memory."
"No, I think it's just direction." Aki giggled, as she remembered the stories Kyo and Yuki had told them.
"Alright, alright. Come on." Kami smiled. She didn't want all their laughing to draw attention to themselves.
Soon they were at the park where the three Sohmas and Tohru were waiting. Another boy stood there as well. He had blond hair and looked like he was in elementary school.
"Hi." Tohru smiled. She had brought the drinks. The three guys all held something for the games.
"Hey… uh, who's this?"
"Hi! I'm Momiji Sohma!" Kami paused and smiled.
"You're the rabbit aren't you?"
Momiji stared in shock, but then smiled. "Yep! How'd you know?"
"They are cursed as well." Kyo grumbled annoyed.
"Really?" Momiji stared at them all and Kami couldn't help but smile. He was just so cute.
"Yes. Our curse is a little different than yours. Ours is tied to our emotions. So when I get really nervous, I turn into a fox."
"Wow!" Momiji smiled.
"He's so cute!" Natsuki grinned, hugging Momiji and shocking the guys. Momiji was mostly shocked by the fact that he didn't transform.
"50-50 chance remember." Kami chuckled. "But Natsuki, you should be careful."
"I know… I just couldn't help myself." Natsuki smiled. "He's adorable." She let him go.
Kami chuckled. "Come on, let's start the picnic."
Kami looked over as she watched the birdy nail Kyo in the head. "HEY!" Kyo yelled out angrily as Natsuki and Aki high-fived. "YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE!"
"No I didn't, it just flew in your direction." Natsuki shrugged. "Now it's still our serve." She pulled up her racket and hit the birdy back over. Shouta hit it back.
"Wow, this match is pretty entertaining." Miyako said as she watched. "I think Suki is enjoying it."
"Probably a little too much." Kami smiled. "She's going to end up hurting someone."
"Like Kyo?" The two sat on the grass watching the match unfold. "Hopefully he'll be okay."
"He's a tough guy." Kami glanced over at Yin, who was watching. She had been careful not to say 'cookie,' she didn't want Yin to transform.
"Yeah." She watched as Momiji hit the birdy back over and scored his team a point. "Well it looks like it's my turn."
"Good luck." Kami watched as Aki and Miyako switched places. The teams were; team 1: Kyo, Momiji, Tohru, and Shouta and team 2: Yuki, Haru, Natsuki, and Aki. Miyako was the sub for team 2. Kami was keeping an eye on Yin. She didn't want Yin to transform from excitement.
"You're not going to play?" Aki asked.
"No, I'm fine." She smiled. "It's fun just watching. Plus it wouldn't be good if Yin transformed."
"Don't worry so much Kam." Aki smiled, relaxing back. "This is fun. I'm glad we agreed to come."
"Yeah." Kami smiled. "But it's getting later and later…. We'll have to be heading home soon."
"AW!" Yin frowned. "But it's been so fun…."
Just then the birdy flew over and landed in front of Kami. "Is the game over?"
"NO!" Kyo growled angrily. "It's not over yet!"
"Yeah it is, you stupid cat." Yuki sighed. "Kami just mentioned how late it is. We won anyways."
"I agree with the idiot!" Shouta frowned. "The game isn't over yet."
"We won." Haru said calmly.
"Alright! That's it!" Kami said walking in between Haru and Shouta. "It's time to go home. The game is over. And we are not having a fight now."
"Oh come on Kam!" Shouta smiled. "I'm just trying to impress you!"
"Come on you big idiot." She sighed.
"It was fun." Tohru smiled. "We should do this again some time." She started to gather up her stuff.
"Sounds fun." Kami nodded. But I'll have to be careful of Yukio. He's already a bit suspicious; I don't want to make him anymore. "Come on everyone. We'll see you guys at school. Nice meeting you Momiji."
"Same here!" Momiji smiled jumping up and down happily.
Kami patted his head. "Bye." She started to walk off. Her other family members began to follow her.
"Did you really mean that?" Shouta asked as they walked a bit away. "About having another one of these days?"
"Maybe." Kami shrugged. "We'll see what happens."
"Let's see what happens in the upcoming days." Natsuki agreed. "But it was fun messing with that idiot."
"You sent the birdy in his direction on purpose didn't you?" Miyako asked, frowning a bit. "You shouldn't bug his as much. It's going to cause more troubles. And we don't want that, because then Yukio will be upset."
"Don't worry, I'll deal with Yukio." Kami said calmly. "I'll keep him from finding everything out."
"You're the best." Miyako smiled.
