My cat Tobey (or Kyo as I like to call him) gave me the inspiration for this fic. I was watching him hunt flies the other day and since he reminds me so much of Kyo I thought, "This would make a hilarious fic," so here it is.

Sadly, I don't own Fruits Basket but I do have a fruit basket.

Secret Habits of the Orange Menace

Kyo sat in his room amongst a pile of books. His pencil was in his mouth while trying to remember what "natural selection" meant. After a quick minute, he gave a yell of frustration, and tossed his pencil at his book creating a large pencil mark across the page. He threw his chin into his hands with his elbows on the table and stared off at the wall, lost in thought.

A sudden buzzing sound jarred him from his thoughts so he looked to see what caused the disturbance. A small black fly was zipping about the ceiling, apparently unaware of the orange haired cat. As soon as Kyo's eyes made contact with the fly, they were glued. For a few minutes, Kyo just kept watching the fly flutter about the ceiling. As the insect began to descend a bit, Kyo entered hunting position: he crouched on all fours and wiggled his bottom in the air. Once the fly reached the appropriate height, Kyo pounced.

Tohru just finished putting the final touches on dinner so she went to retrieve Kyo. She knocked but he didn't answer. She could hear small noises and, being concerned, she opened the door, thinking something may have happened to him. What she saw caused her to burst into a fit of giggles but Kyo didn't seem to notice anything around him. Kyo's weight was distributed on his four limbs and he seemed very interested in a small black dot high on his wall. Yuki, hearing Tohru's giggles came rushing over. Tohru pointed into Kyo's room and Yuki peered in. Just as his eyes met Kyo, Kyo had pounced at the wall, catching the fly in his hand. He shoved it into his mouth and quickly devoured it with a few small crunches.

Tohru gasped disgustedly and Yuki just stared.

"And you complain about eating leeks," Yuki said finally breaking the silence. "You're comparing leeks to a fly?"

Kyo, who heard Yuki's voice, spun around and finally realized that there were two people watching him. "YOU BASTARD!" he yelled. "HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN STANDING THERE!"

"Long enough to realize that you have poor taste in food."

"IT'S CALLED INSTINCT! CATS KILL AND EAT FLIES! YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE THEY KILL? RATS!"

"Whatever," Yuki said walking back to his room.

"WHATEVER! I'LL SHOW YOU WHATEVER!" Kyo screamed. Heran past Tohruinto Yuki's room. Then, Tohru heard a body hit the ground. Kyo had lost another fight.

THE END

Hope you enjoyed it but either way, let me know by pushing the little purple button. I know the image of Kyo crouching down wiggling his bum in the air is really weird but that is how all three of my cats hunt bugs. I just drew inspiration from them. REVIEW!
