"Daddy!" a little four year old whined. She ran into the kitchen and clung to her father's leg. Yuki picked her up.

"Toshi, what's wrong?" he asked, stroking the little girl's hair. Toshi looked up at her father with large violet eyes. She looked much like Yuki, when he was little. She had purple hair that went down to her shoulder's and dark violet eyes. Akito had forced the little girl onto him. Yuki loves her so much and has been treating her like his real daughter. Yuki, tohru, and kyo are only in their 3rd year of high school. Tohru and yuki are going out, while kyo has his own someone to care for.

"natsumi messed up my puzzle!" Toshi cried out. Natsumi is kyo's adopted daughter while Toshi is Yuki's. They are the knew rat and cat of the zodiac, which means Yuki and Kyo are free from the burden of the curse. Natsumi has bright orange hair and bright amber eyes. Both girls were rejected by their parents and don't get along with each other. They're all living in shigure's house. Natsumi stomped into the kitchen.

"I did not!" she yelled at toshi, glaring pure hatred at the young rat. Kyo, who was sitting at the table, picked Natsumi up and set her on his lap.

"Don't pay any attention to the rat, Natsumi," kyo said gently and then smirked when he saw Yuki giving him a dirty look.

" Just be glad that Tohi's here because if she wasn't I would've killed you," Yuki said calmly in a cold voice.

Tohru Honda all of a sudden came in through the door and set down a batch of pancakes. She smiled happily. She was used to toshi and natsumi's bickering, since they were so much like yuki and kyo. Since yuki and tohru are going out, Toshi sees tohru as her mother.

"I made you guys some pancakes!" tohru said happily, knowing very well that is was toshi's and natsumi's favorite breakfast dish. Their eyes lit up.

"yay!!" Toshi exclaimed happily. " I haven't had pancakes in a looong time!!" Yuki smiled at her gently.

" But didn't we have pancakes a few days ago?" he chuckled, setting Toshi on a chair next to him. Toshi smiled up at him innocently.

"But a few days is a looong time Papa," she giggled. Tohru smiled too and set a cut up pancake in front of Toshi.

"there you go," she said gently. Then set another plate in front of Natsumi. Both girl's reached out and grabbed the syrup at the same time. They glared at each other.

" I grabbed it first!" Natsumi said quickly. Toshi glared daggers at her.

"Did not!" she shot at the cat.

"Did too!" Natsumi yelled at the top of her lungs.

"DID NOT!" Toshi yelled just as loud. They both began to pull on the bottle.

"Toshi/Natsumi" Yuki and kyo yelled in unison, grabbing their daughters by their wastes. Neither backed off. IT was a stand off. Tohru looked between them nervously, but then smiled.

"I can help," she said quickly. Everyone froze and looked at her. She held out her hand to toshi and natsumi.

"May I borrow the syrup please?" She asked sweetly. Toshi and Natsumi slowly let go, but not before shooting glares at each other first.

Tohru smiled and put the pancake pieces on one plate then poured syrup all over them. Then devided them equally between both girls and set them in front of each of them.

" Now you both went first!" she smiled happily. Kyo rolled his eyes and continued to eat his own pancake. Toshi and Natsumi both ate theirs reluctantly. Tohru frowned at the empty seat across from her.

"Where's shigure?" she asked curiously. It wasn't like him not to say anything before going. Yuki answered.

"He said something about going to is editor's house and working on his new book there," He replied with a shrug.

"Wait a minute!" Kyo pretty much yelled." Who's watching the kids?" Yuki rolled his eyes.

"Don't worry," Yuki said in annoyance. "I'm not stupid like you are, I got the teacher's permission to take them with us." Kyo grabbed him by his collar.

"Don't call me stupid!" HE yelled furiously. Yuki rolled his eyes again.

"Then don't act stupid, stupid," Yuki said calmly, pushing kyo off him. Tohru stood up.

"Well, since they're coming with us, I guess I should get them ready," Tohru said looking at the two girls who were in their p.js. Both girl's slid off their chairs. Toshi ran over to tohru and held her arms out, wanting to be carried. Tohru giggled and picked her up. Then she offered Natsumi her hand.
