AN: Okay, another new story - I came up with this again while at School (with the... help of some of my friends) and just randomly decided to put this on.

Just so EVERYONE knows I'm am one of the biggest Yuki-fans in the world, and as much as it kills me to do this to him... I had to (friend forcing me)...

Please enjoy, and take everything with a pinch of salt, as even though some character's are a little OOC, that's all to fill in the story line... so I had to change the characters a little.

Also, this is kinda based on a "cinderella" theme... so if you enjoy that story then you'll enjoy this...

Please read and review

Hatsuyuki Shinderera

They all call me a 'prince' at school; a mysterious person to stir the day dreams of all that meet me…

A beauty that is too precious to be anything but admired from afar…

… A thing that is NEVER to be touched…

… Never to be shown warmth…

… Comfort…

… Or love…

… Not by anyone…

… That is the story of my pitiful existence, well what has been there so far…

Wherever I am, as long as I walk in the 'outside' world… everything is always the same… always…

The girls that see me fantasise… it makes me want to be sick… and to run away…

But I can't…

… And the boys that see me… well… they either admire me as much as the girls, or… or they hate me…

… They either love me… or despise me…

… And call me a 'girly boy'…

… If only they knew…

"Hey, Yuki-kun! I thought it was you! Wait up!" A girl with long brown hair comes up to me smiling her usual, peaceful smile and begins to walk along with me. "Yuki-kun… what's wrong…? Are you crying…? What's he done…?"

Tohru Honda was the only person I had ever confined all my truths with…

Only she knew everything about me…

… Absolutely everything…

… Not even my master knew everything…

… Or my family…

… Only she…

"If you are referring to Akito-sama… then it's the same as always Honda-san… and if it's about him… well… it's still the same as always…"

"Oh Yuki-kun!" She always knew what to say, in her own little ditzy way… I only wish that she could say the same thing about me… "You shouldn't think like that… I'm sure if he knew you for whom you really are, then he'd love you… anyone would…"

Only one little problem with that theorem though…

"… But he'll never know me for who I truly am though Honda-san… Because…"

"…It's not allowed…" She finished for me, putting a comforting hand upon my shoulder. "… Even though I wish it were…"

"Thank you Honda-san… But I'm as content as I'll ever be now, aren't I? I mean… life isn't going to get better than this… it'll only get worse…won't it…?"

And even though she denied it without hesitation, we both knew it to be the truth…

… Because it was my fate…

… A fate that had been pushed upon me from the moment I was born…

… The moment I was born the prized Nezumi of the Juunishi and a--…

"-I'll see you tomorrow, okay Yuki-kun?" She waved happily as she turned left down the fork in the road, off to the city suburb in which she lived.

I, on the other hand, had to turn right, off to an isolated area of the city: The Sohma family compound...

The place of my nightmares…

As I passed through the lane, slowly creeping down the darkness filled path, I saw some Kyo talking to a girl. Quickly I hid behind a tree, not wanting to be seen by anyone – especially not by him

… The one who hated me, and yet knew nothing about me…

… And the one I loved…

"Hey! Kyo-kun! Are you coming or not?" A girl was pulling along the boy, and I instantly felt jealous of her… though I couldn't fully comprehend why…

"LEAVE ME ALONE KAGURA!" He shouted, and I flinched at the anger ion his voice, even though it wasn't directed at me.

"KYO YOU'RE SO MEAN!" Within seconds she had changed completely, now attacking Kyo before hugging him possessively and crying.

"Who did this to you darling?" She asked tearfully and I peered out a little closer, to see what his reaction would be.

"YOU! ..." He shouted back, before his eyes rested upon mine and turned hard… and cold, like they always did when he saw me… no matter how much I wished it were otherwise… "Come on Kagura. I don't want to stay here anymore. Let's go."

And with that he left, marching away from my destination and towards the fork in the roads, turning left down the path Tohru had gone down, Kagura following him quickly…

… And with that I was left completely alone…

… Like always…

… Even when I was surrounded by crowds and people were talking to me… well… I still felt alone…

… Because none of them were talking to the real me…

… No one did…

… Except Tohru…

… And him

… My master…

… And my god

… The god of the Juunishi…

… And the person I was forced to return to every single day… for I was chained to him not only because of the curse… but because of my fear…

… My fear of a life without him…

… Because he had created me to be unable to live a life happily without him…

… Or live any kind of life at all…

… Because that was how I was…

"Yuki-san." A maid called me from the gate as it opened to let me in. "Akito-sama demands that you go and see him immediately! You have kept him too long! Where have you been?"

"Umm… I was… I was just late from school… I'm sorry…"

"Save your apologies for Akito-sama, Yuki-kun; just get out of that ridiculous attire and into something more… appropriate…"

I instantly looked down upon what I was wearing, and wondered what was wrong with the black school uniform I was wearing…

Then it hit me.

He always hated the uniform I wore… because it hid the truth about me completely…

I went silently to my room, and changed swiftly into the kimono that had been left out for me– a seductive purple silk sleeveless Kimono that complimented my eyes perfectly – for a guy Akito sure had good clothing tastes… or maybe it was Aaya's designs… yeah… that was more likely… much more likely…

The corridor that led to Akito's room was almost completely pitch black, with only a few candles on the walls lighting the way. It had always made me nervous to walk these corridors, ever since I was a little child, and it was no different now…

… Because my memories here had always been bad… from the age of five when I had been forced to come here, and my parents memories had been erased of me… Since that foreboding day I have had to live constantly under that cage of lies, chained up and a slave to Akito…

… Just like we all are…

"Yuki-chan…" I froze as a chilling voice crept up me, sending slight shivers of fear through my delicate body. "Take off that ridiculous thing. You shouldn't pretend at home. It's rude to me!"

Naturally, he is the one who forces me to do this… to be like this… because he is my master…

… My god…

"Yes m… yes Master…" I reply weakly as I nervously run my fingers through my hair…

… And gently pull off the wig, letting my long, silver locks flow gracefully around me, showing me for what a truly was…

… The one secret that only about five people knew about…

… And the one secret that would ruin my life…


AN: I bet you didn't expect that! lol

Please review - I don't mind if you wanna shout at me for doing this to Yuki :P
