Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket, but I do own Hikaru Sohma.

Note: I posted this up on Quizzila and thought I'd put it on here as well, people loved it so why not. Oh and the parts that are in parenthesis that says Kyo, means me as Kyoshi, just shortened.

Golden fox eyes skimmed across all the kids in school. Middle school to be precise. 13 year old Hikaru Sohma was sitting in the shaded part of the tree, watching, as the kids seemed to be hustling around during lunch. Today she had to go to visit Shigure. Like Kisa, Hikaru was bullied, for that she can't talk or see very well. A disease took over and she ended up having to throw up blood non-stop, every minute until she takes her pill. Being the fox she had orange hair like Kyo and golden fox eyes. Being partially blind and no voice oftened got abused physically and verbally by the older and younger people.

Girls came and surrounded you as you just sat there, not needing the vision to see. You already knew who the intruder was and tried to remain calm. Okay, so that didn't work since the leader of the group kicked dirt in your face, making you try eagerly to wipe it off before it went into your eyes. "Hey freak, why won't you fight back?" she asked as she pushed you over and kicked you a bit. Getting up on your knees and hands, you would fight back but you couldn't. "I'm talking to you, oh that's right, the little girl can't talk" she said as she started to giggle like the rest of them. 15 more minutes until the lunch bell, telling the kids that lunch was over. Too long. One girl pulled on your hair saying it was so freaky, others were either kicked or shoved you on the ground. Not once did you shed a tear, only letting them proceed till they tire themselves out. "Let's go, she's already messed up enough and she's not even fighting back" another girl said as they all gave you one last push. They left as you just lay there on the grass; everywhere was either bruised or cut. Mostly gashes on the elbows and knees, one long cut on the side from a sharp rock.

Slowly standing up, you tried to look at your surroundings, but thanks to your cursed vision all you could see was blur. Glasses didn't work; it's an illness you have to conquer yourself.

The bell rung but your 4"8 structure didn't move, you had some muscle, mostly used for martial arts and what not. You only wanted to use the ability to defend yourself in dire situations, not for the daily things. You could see the usual lightish brown hair ahead of you. Knowing it was Kisa you walked up to her. You didn't see any blood or anything red besides her reddish tie. Putting your hand on her shoulder, you knew she looked up since she grabbed your hand. Pulling her up she flung herself in your arms as you started to rub her back. In her eyes you knew she looked really sorry for you, even the blood from your cuts were going on to her. All you wanted to do was escape the school but didn't want to leave Kisa alone.

The wind blew your waist length hair to the side; the pieces of hair over your ears go down past your shoulder by an inch and your bangs to your chin. Kisa led you into the school where you ignored all the kids in class who were either giggling, you knew it was about you and you couldn't help but feel sad. Kisa was looking at you sadly, they verbally abuse her but they do that and physically abuse you. The day dragged on, you were about to leave the school gates with Kisa but got a hand pulled you back as you fell down on the ground. Kisa stopped and looked back to see what the problem was. The girls surrounded you as you stood up; they started to push you all around the place, tearing off your bandaged and making more scratched with their nails. You were in pain and Kisa knew it. She really wanted to get help so you looked at her and shook your head no. Tearing up a little, all she could do was stand there and watch as you bleed more. Finally the buses honked their horns and the girls left off with a little kick and a shove to the ground.

Standing up, uniform all bloody, dirty and ripped. Kisa ran over and hugged you, placing her head over yours since you were shorter then her. Drips of water were falling on you, it was raining and some of it was warm. Kisa's tears. The bruises on your back hurt but you ignored it, not wanting to make her tear more for putting you in more pain. Finally she let go but you didn't budge, suddenly a pop was heard and some people looked your way to find small fox pup. Kisa acted fast and shoved your clothes behind her as you laid on the ground not willing to get up. Kids came over with these big grins on their faces with something shining in their eyes. You knew what they wanted to do but growled so they'd lay off you and Kisa. They two of them held Kisa by the arms while another four came over and tried to hurt you. Growling, not wanting anyone to touch Kisa. Suddenly a kick was thrown at you from someone behind. Looking up to see an older kid, about 14. A grin was on his face as he was prepared to kick you again. Dodging it another kick was thrown. Getting tossed up in the air as blow after blow was created. Kisa was going to be fine so they let her go and picked up rocks. Barely able to stand you had to run.

Taking off they started to chase you as Kisa ran off to get someone. They were still on to you; rain was blinding you even more. Hiding by a bush they ran past. You were panting; too much pain was shaking over your little body as you waited for them to pass. Running footsteps were heard as they stopped in front of you. Standing up shakily, growling. You knew it wasn't Kisa so you wanted to warn them to lay off. Finally more footsteps were heard so you growled pathetically. Someone was crying, teardrops mixed with the rain as you tried your best to scare them off. A hand grabbed onto you. Biting back the person didn't let go. Instead they wrapped you in a towel with your jaw still latched onto their arm. Their sent was one of a cat, but yet they didn't even yell or hit you when you bit them. Struggling you were just hanging onto conscienceness when they went to ran off in a direction you knew a bit.

Not letting go of the person's hand he kept on running. Stopping after awhile the door opened and he ran in. You were in a familiar scented room. The person stroked your head so you let go of his hand slightly. "Ah Kyo, what's with the bundle?" an older guy as you started to struggle a bit, the older guy's scent was one of a dog. You knew that scent, Shigure. "Ah it's moving" Shigure said as he watched the bundle move carefully. You head popped out with an ear flopped down a bit. "And who's this" Shigure said as he walked over to Kyo. "Those eyes look familiar" he said, as he was about to grab you from Kyo's hands. Kyo was weak and you felt it. Taking the opportunity you leapt out of his hands and through a room where you heard a girl gasp. Along with another guy with the scent of a rat. "Hikaru?" the boy asked as you stopped for a second, this is the Sohma family. "Another member of the zodiac family?" the girl asked, "She's hurt," she said as she stood up to grab you. Her hand was getting closer so you bit her, "Whaaa" she said as your jaw was still latched onto her.

So many people, so confusing. "Hikaru let go of Miss Honda right now," Yuki said a bit demanding. Letting go you ran and was about to break through the door when you heard it open. "We heard Hikaru was here," a monotone voice said. Haru. Growling a bit more, too many people made you edgy. So many eyes were on you. Haru bent down to grab you but the same thing happened with Kyo and Tohru. Not recoiling in pain instead he used his other hand to grab you. Letting go of his hand you attacked the other. Backing up you ran past him and broke through the door and ran into the woods. Stopping, Kisa was out here and you knew it. Running in her direction you nuzzled her with your gentle snout. She moved. Lying down beside her she began to lick your wounds. Shouts for both you and Kisa were heard so you stood up and sat down. Voices were getting closer so you started to growl. Haru was with Torhu, Yuki was close behind.

People, they were too close. Tohru was just giving a little talk to Kisa and you were listening. Kisa's different from you; her problems are way different from yours. A pop was heard and Kisa returned to normal. Now she was naked, tears were welled up in her eyes. A shirt was placed over her as she cried in Tohru's chest.

Sitting down, at least she learned to trust some people so you that's a couple of people less for you to concern yourself over. Sitting down, if she was happy that lit your day. Shaking the water out of your fur after it stopped raining. Giggles from the two girls were heard as your ears flopped around. One remained flopped as you tilted your head to the side cutely. "Ahhh, so kawaii" Tohru said as you heard movement coming toward you. Some hands grabbed you and held you gently. You swore your eyes widened in shock. Whimpering, Tohru stopped and looked at you. "Ahhh, i'm so sorry Hikaru-chan" she said as she looked dead right now with you in her arms. Tilting your head you licked her hand. Looking down at you in shock you kept licking the spot where you bit her that was now covered over. Everyone smiled. Sure Kisa was tearing still. Finally noticing Kisa's tired mom you looked at her a bit confused and shocked. Maybe you zoned out a too long.

Making another cute whimper Tohru held you close again as everyone sweatdropped. After you guys got in, Kyo and the others were in the living room at the table. Once they saw you enter Tohru put you on the floor as you kept your head down in shame. "Ah, Hikaru-chan" Shigure said with that face he always does. Something smelt good so you looked over and saw Kyo about to put onigiri in his mouth. Making a determined face you put your butt up in the air ready to grab it at the right moment. Just about close to his mouth you snagged it as you went flying by Kyo who opened his eyes wide in shock. "Why you little" Kyo said angrily, standing up. "Ah Hikaru's up and about," Shigure said as he watched in amusement as Kyo started to wave his fist around.

Yuki was leaning against the doorframe, watching in amusement as well. Kyo almost grabbed you but you jumped out of the way and behind Yuki's legs. Yuki looked shocked then glared up at Kyo. "Picking a fight with an injured pup, baka neko" Yuki said as Tohru came through the kitchen sliding doors to see a fight about to break out and you were stuck in the middle. Tohru started to panic, almost dropping the tea while she was at it.

"What's wrong Hikaru?" she asked, looking up at her you didn't say anything. "Aren't you gonna say something Hikaru, don't be so rude" Yuki said as you walked over to Shigure and curled up on his lap, since the foxes were sort of related to dogs. "You forget she can't talk or see" Shigure said as he started to scratch behind his ears. Yuki looked shocked then it turned to sadness. "I'm...sorry Hikaru," he said as you looked up a bit sadly. Getting off of Shigure's lap you didn't feel so weak anymore. The door opened and Hatori came in. "Haa-san glad you could bandage up our little pup" Shigure said as he sipped his tea. All the sudden a pop was heard and before the smoke could disappear, Hitori placed his white jacket over you.

The jacket looked pretty big on you. Hitori looked over all of your injuries and looked at you sadly. Taking his hand out you grabbed it as he walked you over to a room to bandage you up. The others just did whatever; Kisa was outside hugging her knees with Tohru and Haru out there with her. They talked and, "Yes" Kisa said. Haru pulled her back into his chest, "I missed that voice," he said as he continued to hug her. "Onne-chan" Kisa said to Tohru. Tohru couldn't help but cuddle her. The others sweatdropped and looked up once you entered the room. Walking over to the table you bumped into someone that was walking by and fell down. All you did was sit there, not making an attempt to sit up. The person kneeled down and you seen blurry grey hair. "Are you okay Hikaru?" he asked gently as he helped you up. Nodding you scampered up the stairs with an over sized shirt blowing around behind you a bit. "So kawaii" you heard Tohru say so you just sat down on the steps in the shadows.

The others looked at you, Kisa looked sad. They all heard a noise up on the roof and knew who it was. Standing up, they all looked at you again as you just looked up at the ceiling as if peering through it to the sky. They watched as you walked up the stairs and out of sight. "What's wrong with Hikaru-chan?" Tohru asked worriedly. "She's been like that for awhile Honda-san" Yuki said sadly. "Since she was five she was bullied on by her mother and father till they died 2 years later, by then Hikaru talked less, no smile on that cute face of hers. When she went to elementary she had a friend, a boy actually. They always played till the day he hugged her, turning into a baby fox the boy didn't seem phased. They got closer until the day Akito wanted a little visit from her friend and ended up with his memories erased. Hikaru cried, the first person that cared for her was taken away. The fox had a vengeful spirit like the cat" Yuki explained sadly. "I never seen her bracelet" Tohru said confused. Yuki and the others smiled sadly. "It was always hidden, she hides so people don't have to check if it would fall off. So she just hides it everytime someone wants to look at it" Yuki explained. "So how did Hikaru-chan loose most of her eyesight?" Tohru asked as she slowly started to get sadder.

"By the time in elementary, her little friend played with others and all she could do was sit back in the shadows, watching as he played without her. By then everyone ignored her. Her eyesight got effected with so many unwanted emotions that she thought it would be better. If she can't see, then no one could see her, that's what she always hoped for. After so many attempts to talk to people, yelling out things to get attention. Pranks. Nothing worked. Thinking she was annoying and only some little cursed fox she bottled up everything she wanted to say and see for long. Now she got that wish." Yuki said as his bangs shadowed over his eyes. Tohru was starting to tear; Kisa sat there with tears already riveting down her eyes. Now Tohru knew you were in pain. "Did you notice Kyo didn't scream or anything when she bit his hand?" Yuki asked Tohru. "I was surprised," Tohru said as she started to dry her eyes, trying to swallow the lump in her throat.

"Hikaru is close to 6 members of the family. Shigure cause dogs are somewhat related to the foxes. Kisa cause they both got bullied on. Haru, cause they both seem to get well together for their split personalities. Momiji, cause he helps her out. Kyo, cause they both have a vengeful spirit in them...The last one is...Akito. They both have too much pain in their lives."

Tohru looked shocked, "What do you mean she has split personalities, How is she connected with Akito?" Tohru asked, learning that you endured some much pain in life at such a young age. "Hikaru...just has a side where she can release bottled up emotions. Akito...Hikaru has some kind of illness where she throws up blood every minute until she takes her pills" Shigure said as he looked up at the ceiling.

Climbing up to the roof, you looked there to see Kyo lying there. Looking up at the sky as the birds sang a light song. Crawling up you walked carefully over to Kyo. Kyo, looking over and was shocked to see you. First time on the roof as well. "Gahh, what the hell are you doing up here? Are you crazy, you'll fall" he said as he jumped up, almost as if he's going to get ready to save you if you fall. Getting closer you grabbed onto his arm as if giving yourself balance and reassurance of your safety. Sitting down, you ignored his protests of you getting off before you fall down. Giving up he sat down beside you and glanced at you in a worried way. Not that he was showing it much. The others in the house went outside to see what all the noise was all about.

"Ahh, Hikaru-chan, come down before you fall" Shigure said in that whinny voice he uses when Yuki and Kyo fights. Shaking your head, you brought your knees to your chest. "Kyo-kun, look after out little fox" Shigure said as he went back into the house. Haru just looked up at you, then entered as well. Tohru looked worried and was about to panic for you. "Honda-san, don't worry about Hikaru-kun. She's fine and if she has a bruise on her then she's tough" Yuki said reassuring her. "Stupid rat, I'm not gonna let Hikaru fall off just like that" Kyo yelled, standing up as if getting ready to fight. Yuki glared, "Shut up baka neko, you'll make Hikaru fall". "Shut up, I won't let her fall like I said you idiot" Kyo yelled, getting ready to jump off the roof. Grabbing his hand he looked down shocked at you. Shaking your head as if telling him not to fight. Calming down he sat down again as if in a huff but was glad you were worried about him. "Baka, you made Hikaru worry" Yuki said as he went inside with Tohru. "Damn rat, someday I'll win a fight against him then I'll be in the zodiac" Kyo mumbled as he leaned back with his hands. Giving him a small smile you pat his shoulder with your hand. Looking over to you he gave a rare smile. "I'll make sure you join as well Hikaru," he said, as he looked determined.

Dark clouds loomed over so Kyo helped you down. Rain started to pour so he just grabbed you and jumped down. Holding you, he walked you down the stairs and into the room where the others were. Setting you down by the table he went up stairs to go sleep.

Thunder shook the sky's, causing you to jump and cling to Haru. Kisa was following Tohru around like a little chick. Lightning strikes and the lights started to flicker. A big boom of thunder made you jump in panic and ran off into a corner like a scared dog during a storm. Sitting there you put your head on your knees as you brought them up to your chest. Tohru stopped and looked over worriedly at you. "Ah, this is the part where she either stays there or run up to Kyo's room" Shigure said drinking his tea but shuddered when more thunder rumbled. You looked up with frightened golden eyes that watched what they were doing. More thunder shook and you thought about what Akito said when you went to see him while thunder boomed in the sky. "You're pathetic, you'll never join the zodiac if you can't stand a little thunder. You'll stay an outsider and never see or talk again. You're a freak and people know that, that's why they stay away from you to continue on being happy while you sit there and cry" Akito went on as a 5-year-old you sat there crying.

Haru walked over and grabbed you tightly. Flinching you looked up as if afraid to see it was Akito but your frightened eyes relaxed once you seen Haru's gentle eyes. You were set in his lap as you started to calm down; soon you fell asleep as the clouds started to disappear. A streak of light came through the window and lit the both of you up. The others smiled to see a sleeping relaxed you in Haru's arms. A small smile was spread on your lips making Tohru light up on how cute you look.
