Your secret is safe with me...[Fruits Basket fanfic]

Chapter 3

Last chapter....

A feminine voice came from the bottom of the stairs "Shigure are you ok?" Standing up slowly I took in a deep breath before looking at him once more and shouting back down to them in a monotone voice"Shigure just died." That's when three sets of footsteps came rushing up the stairs and coming round the corner.

******* Story start.********

They all came running up the stairs and stopped as soon as they saw me looking down at him and nudging him with my foot.Nothing.I blinked a few times before moving my eyes to look straight at them,the girl looked shocked and run up to him say 'Shigure-san' while the boy with the grayish hair looked at him like this was normal stuff for him..?

Then I looked at the other boy that was standing there and took in his appearance,he had bright orange hair and burning red eyes that almost seemed that they didn't fit to a humans face.He was wearing a black t-shirt with cargo pants on and he looked bored by all this but was watching from the corner of his eye.Taking a quick glance at the girl now kneeling next to him panicking.

I walk straight past them all with my eyes closed trying to clear my mind of the girl panicking voice and down the stairs towards the kitchen,the calmer looking boy just watched me pass by while the fiery oranged shouted at my back asking where I was going but in a very aggressive,bored out of my mind tone.Ignoring the shouts and stares I look through the cupboards until I find a big enough bowl and fill it with water,very cold water and wander back up the stairs to them.Can you guess what happened next?

The classic cold water to wake them up trick.

Shigure shot up,the girl fell backwards and the two boys stared.Placing the bowl next to the girl I then turned back to shigure who had already stood up and was heading further down the hall and into a different room,probably to change from his wet kimono because that would be the smart thing to do but i have only just met these people and I cannot judge how there minds work.So he could be not the cleverest pea in the pod.

"Anyone gonna tell me who the hell she is!?"someone said behind me in a annoyed tone,judgin by that it was probably the orange head.Turning to face them I see the girl has stood up and was smiling at me and the other boys race now held a bored look to it,"Well if you were listening earlier to miss Honda you would know,stupid cat."

"Cat..." I mumble under my breath as I look at them both with a confused face,well unless the world has changed he looks human maybe he acts like a cat or has secret costumes of them....hmmm...I'm curious to find out if he does have costumes of a cat.Snapping out of my thoughts I see the girl who most likely is 'miss Honda' standing next to me and smiling warmly but has worry in her eyes as the two boys fight,there shouting was getting louder and louder and I didn't like it.Covering my ears with my hands and closing my eyes tightly shut I feel miss Honda walking towards them to calm them down,'I don't think she noticed me,but she did seem really worried about them.'

The noise had gone down but I still heard orange head going on about some rat that had annoyed him,cracking my eyes open slightly I silently slipped passed them and down the stairs and into the hallway down stairs and out a door that leads outside.Closing the door quietly behind me I walk to a nearby tree and climb it,now this was hard seen as tho I had no shoes on but I still managed to do so and crawled out onto a close branch that wasn't to high from the ground.Then I slip backwards but wrap my knees round said branch so im hanging upside down from it.I can think better like this but I'm not sure why but Meh I don't question myself,I'm not that crazy.As I hang there I think about many different things the main being,

'Where am I and who are thoose people?'

Closing my eyes and crossing my arms across my chest I zone out to the sound of birds singing and chatting among themselves, I didnt realize that someone or a group of people standing under me staring at my back.I only realized when someone coughed making me snap my eyes open and fall of the branch heading straight for the dirt,everything seemed to go in slow motion and I regained myself and landed softly without a sound on my feet.Then I fell onto my knees as the impact of the fall rushed through my legs erupting as painful vibrations,they slowly subsided as someone placed a hand on my back.
