Introduction

Fruits Basket: When Love is a Lie

(I would recommend reading EVERYTHING, I will know if you haven't and your character will not be accepted.)

A long, long time ago, God decided to invite all of the animals to a banquet. He sent out word for all of them to come to his house the following evening, "And don't be late!" he said. When the mischievous rat heard the news, he decided to play a trick on his neighbor, the cat. He told the cat that the party was the day after tomorrow. The very next day, all of the animals lined up for the celebration. The rat led the way, riding all the way there on the back of the cow. Everyone had a wonderful time, except for the cat, who missed the whole thing.

The Sohma curse of the Chinese zodiac consists of three main categories- the Juunishi (zodiac), the cat, and the god.
The Juunishi represent the twelve main zodiac animals- the rat, the cow (ox), the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the horse, the ram, the monkey, the rooster (bird), the dog, and the boar. The Juunishi are twelve people who transform with a "Poof!" into the animal they represent when they are embraced by a person of the opposite gender or when their bodies are under pressure (When they're sick, weak, etc.). Even if they are embraced by their own parents or siblings, given that they are the opposite gender, they transform. However, if they embraced by a Juunishi member of the opposite gender (including the cat and the god), they do not transform. The Juunishi must stay by the god's side forever, even if it means being reborn many, many times. This also means following all of the god's orders. While a Juunishi of a single animal is alive, another child of the same animal cannot be born. However, when a Juunishi member dies, this means that a Sohma child is soon to be born to this particular animal's curse.

The cat follows the exact same rules of which the Juunishi follow, except its curse is a bit darker. He must wear Juzu beads; a bracelet with round red and white beads made of the bones of great and powerful priests and dyed with blood. When the beads are removed, the cat transforms into a hideous monster with a foul odor, known as "the cat's true form".
The god is the actual God who held the banquet in the above story. They bare what is called "the core of the zodiac curse". They tend to get sick a lot, and they die at a young age. Often times, the god and the Juunishi/cat aren't alive at the same generation. The god especially hates the cat for some reason. After reading this, put something super random at the end of your Personality description.

"She's adorable...can we keep her?" Ryuu asked between laughs, trying to compose himself a bit. He glanced at Ichirou, and then back at the girl. Getting up, he walked over to the crouched girl and eyed her. "Yup, would make a good pet indeed. Come on Ichirou, I'll feed her and everything!"

Youko looked over at the boy who said that and gave him a once over.

"And who...pray tell...do you think you are?" she asked with a smirk as she placed a hand on her cocked hip.

β€œRyuu, you are single handedly the worst person to possibly take care of a living creature.” Ichirou laughed to himself, dodging then punching at Kishi again. β€œSo yeah, you can keep her.”

"I'll make you a deal, you beat me in a fight and ill consider it...." she said jokingly as stared at him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You'll be okay on your own? Here" he handed her some money while he kissed her lips once more. "I promise I'll make it up to you....tonight? Maybe depends on how long this job is. I will call you. Please don't be mad but one of us has to keep our jobs right" he winked. "There's a few sohmas at the shrine why don't you visit them so you don't get lonely" he waved before running off.

Rei smiled at her...boy friend....as he walked away. She sighed lovingly and grinned before she started for the shrine.

Ryuu
Ryuu grinned, looking back at Ichirou in time to see Kishi throw a punch at his face with an annoyed expression. "Thanks!" he called, and then realized the girl was talking.

"I'll make you a deal, you beat me in a fight and ill consider it...." she said, looking at Ryuu. Ryuu looked at her, considering the offer. He would just like to keep her an not bothering with fighting, but he also didn't want to back down from a fight. Standing up from his crouching position, he looked at the girl thoughtfully before nodding. "Alright, deal," he said, grinning. He did not plan on losing to a girl who got knocked unconscious by a punching bag.

"I'm Ryuu, by the way," he added.

Kishi
Kishi kept fighting, but his attention was half on Ryuu too. Kishi knew the guy was strange, but this was just laughable. Kishi himself had never seen Ryuu fight, and for the girls sake he hoped he was a bad fighter. If he's a good fighter, I feel bad for her, he thought, making a smirk appear on his face.

YOUKO

"Alright, deal," he said, grinning.

Wait...he was serious? She had been making a cocky joke...but now since he accepted she couldnt very well back down. She sighed and shrugged. not much she could do about it now, she wasnt going to lose to the guy who treated her like a pet.

"Your funeral baby" she said with a grin as she stepped up to a empty ring. She rolled her shoulders and hopped over the ropes.

"You coming sugar?" she called as she stood in the center of the ring and stretched.

Ryuu

Ryuu snickered seeing her expression go surprised for a brief second, and them changed to something that looked like uncaring. She got up and went to the ring that was empty, ready to fight him. Ryuu rolled his eyes, but was grinning. "You coming sugar?" she asked, causing Ryuu to just start laughing, for no real reason.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm coming," he said finally composing himself. Walking over to the ring, he hesitated briefly before joining her in the ring.
"This kind of goes against my beliefs of not hitting girls," he commented, tilting his head to the side a bit as if thinking.

Youko


"This kind of goes against my beliefs of not hitting girls," he commented, tilting his head to the side a bit as if thinking.

Youko didn't hesitate. he needed encouragement, she;d give it to him. She crouched down before swiping a leg out hoping to catch him off guard and take him to the ground.

"Enough talk, come on cutie" she said with a grin as she danced back so that she could avoid any close combat counter attack. He had reach and strength on her, but she was agile and flexible.

| Yoshino Sohma |

"Alright then.. Kenji...-san."

Yoshino's voice was hesitant on dropping honorifics, it was an area unknown to her and one she felt extremely uncomfortable with. Either way, she sped on without more difficulty. "You may call me Yoshino or Yoshi," she added, raising her head to show that she truly didn't mind. "It's okay if you don't like honorifics but, if you don't mind, I'd like to continue using them when I speak to you." Her smile showed minimum discomfort but she knew Kenji would pick up on it, despite it not being very visible.

She pulled out her cellphone and shot off a quick text, feeling a bit rude for whipping it out in front of Kenji, yet again, but knowing it was necessary. Nani was most likely very worried about Yoshino, being the older sister she was, and would be waiting for her to arrive at the shrine any moment now. She owed it to her sister to inform her she would be a bit late for lunch, especially if the time she was looking at was correct.

I will be late, don't wait. Eat some lunch, please.

How well she knew her sister.. Tsk.

Slipping the device into her pocket, Yoshino slowly pulled herself up to stand and dusted off her rear and her legs. "I have to meet up with my family for lunch at our shrine now," the pink haired girl offered as a way of explanation, pulling a piece of paper and a pen out to scribble on. With a wink, the girl tucked the slip of paper with the writing on it into a pocket in Kenji's uniform jacket, dropping the pen back into her bag.

"My name and cellphone number, if you would like to talk or text," she murmured before giving a wave and stepping away. "I'll see you tomorrow, Kenji-san, and please stay out of trouble." Yoshi turned her head to shoot another wink in the male's direction before picking up her pace and practically skipping off, clearly in an excellent mood.

She felt like she'd over-stepped boundaries now. I mean, she'd reached out and tucked her number into his pocket! However, she did figure time was ticking by and she had lunch to go eat with her family. OH!

Yoshino stopped and half-turned to look back at the male not too far behind her. She didn't even stop to contemplate her next actions as she called to the male, trying not to think about what her family members would think to see her with a regular human.. A male, at that.

"Kenji!" She dropped the honorific as she rushed to get the words out, "Would you like to come eat lunch with my family and I? It's up to you," Yoshi added before slowly turning back and continuing on her way, listening for footsteps in case he should want to join her.

Ryuu
Ryuu's eyes caught the slight change in movement before she crouched, already assuming what she'd do. When she attempted to trip him, Ryuu simply jumped up and back a little before making a tsking sound at the girl. Though he wasn't the best fighting, he did have one good thing with him. The fact that he was fast to react and attack, something he blamed on being "snake qualities" but for all he knew it had nothing to do with that. However, if she did manage to knock a good hit on him, he wouldn't last long. He bruised easy, and hated getting bruises. Especially on his face. If she hit him, he'd probably call the whole thing off.

"Ladies first," Ryuu said, grinning before bowing slightly at the girl.

Youko

Youko hesitated, he was faster than she had thought. Well guess she would just have to be faster. She went at him, getting close and throwing a few punches. She threw a mock punch at him only to do an uppercut hoping to land a hit before she tried to get out of his reach.



Rei


Rei smiled as she walked to the shrine. She hopped to find some of her family there.

Ryuu
Ryuu watched the girl, slightly amused, as she threw a few punches and he moved out of the way of each one. Though, being arrogant him, he stopped paying enough attention and ended up getting punched. Hard. He had moved just in time for it to just be his shoulder, but that was enough for him to realize she could throw a punch. Frowning slightly, he shook his head trying to stay focused. Looking at her again, he realized he didn't really want to fight her.
Sighing, he let his arms go to his sides and pouted.

(yeah writers block. we all love it)
