Two Zodiacs

Chpt 3

Shigure, Yuki, Kyo, Tohru, and I sat around the table. Tohru had made dinner. Dumplings, fish, sushi, tea, and beef stew. I didn't bother with the stew.

"Crystal you haven't even touched your beef stew!" Shigure exclaimed.

"Oh... Well I'm part vegetarian. I eat poultry and fish. But, no pork or beef." I informed.

"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't know!" Tohru apologized.

"It's fine! You didn't know! The main reason I'm partial vegetarian is because Virgo's element is earth. Animals are supposed to be sacred to me." I informed.

"Interesting. But. Isn't Virgo the virgin?" Kyo questioned.

"Yes. That's true, too. In Greek mythology Virgo is supposedly the equivalent Demeter the goddess of grains. Also, all domestic animals are sacred to me." I informed.

"So, dogs and cats basically?" Yuki asked.

"Yeah! I can summon dogs or cats. But, most likely the same for you, if I get hugged by the opposite sex I'll turn into my zodiac form. Only other zodiacs I can hug without transforming. And unfortunately. I'm naked when I turn back to me normal form." I sighed then smiled.

"So, where are you from anyways?" Kyo asked.

"Well. I came from France. But, I was born in Greece. Which is where most if my family is and where the curse began. I have many homes around the world. Some in America, Italy, you name it! The only place I've never been was Japan! But now I'm here!" I smiled.

"That's awesome! Are you going to any schools?" Tohru asked.

"Yeah. Here I'll show you where I'm going..." I trailed off as I poked around for the note. I found the paper and gave the note to Tohru. "Here!"

.

"Oh! I'm going there too!" Tohru informed.

"Cool!" I smiled.

"You'll be meeting some of our relatives then." Yuki informed.

"Cool! Are they zodiacs too?" I asked.

"Yes, Momiji and Hatsuharu Sohma. I'll imagine they'll like you. You have a very sweet personality." Shigure complimented.

"Oh thank you!" I blushed. I yawned and rubbed my eyes. Stars dappled the sky.

"Will one of you show Crystal to her room?" Shigure asked as Tohru cleaned up the table. Yuki and Kyo stared at Shigure blankly.

"Why can't you do it?" Kyo asked annoyed.

"I have to write! I have a life too you know!" Shigure laughed.

"It's ok! I can probably find it." I assured.

"No no! I insist! One of them will agree to show you your room!" Shigure smiled.

"Well sure as hell I'm not!" Kyo argued. Yuki sighed and looked at me.

"It's ok Ms. Crystal I'll show you to your room." Yuki informed, "let's go." Yuki began to pick up my bags.

"No! I can carry them!" I informed brightly. I picked up my bags.

"Uhm... If you insist Ms. Crystal." Yuki replied.

"Please don't call me Ms. Crystal. I'd much rather be called Crystal!" I smiled.

"Very well. Crystal." Yuki blinked his purple eyes then guided me upstairs.
