By Yuizaki

     My name is Tohru Honda. My mom died a little more than a year ago. Since then I have been living with the Sohma family. They’re a completely normal family. Oh yeah, except for the fact that each of them are cursed by a spirit of the Jyuunishi.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
     “Yui-kun?” Tohru asked her new friend at breakfast. 
     “Hai?” 
     “Ri-chan-san said you were his best friend. How did you two meet?” 
     “Ah…It all started when I was first born………….. 

          “He’s such a handsome baby boy. Yuizaki Sohma.” A lady said, holding a baby
          Yuizaki in her arms. She held him up and hugged him, and he poofed… 
          “Get rid of him. Now!” a man, clearly Yuizaki’s father, commanded. 
          “Why? Because he’s cursed like the rest of my family?” 
          “Yes! That and the fact that I refuse to have a son that’s a FREAK!”
 

     “And so my mother took me to live with Okami-san. She raised me, and when I was six, Ri-chan-san was born………….. 

          “Yui-bocchan! Come out and meet Ritsu!” Okami said loudly as she entered the
          residence in which she, Ritsu’s father, and Yuizaki had been living. 
          Yuizaki walked out and met Ritsu, and was instantly determined to be friends.
 

     “We grew up together as the best of friends.” He finished. 
     “Oh. That’s a great story.” Tohru looked into Yuizaki’s eyes. “Do you have any other stories?” 
     “Yes I do, would you like to hear one?” 
     “Oh, please!” 
     “OK.” Yuizaki concluded as he pulled up his left sleeve, revealing a scar with the name, ‘Yumi,’ 
     “Eh? Yumi-san?” 
     “Hai. She was my first love.” 
     “Really? Tell me the story, please!” 
     “If you really want to hear the story, here it goes… 
     “It was Yumi’s 18th Birthday. We were driving up to a point, along the shoreline to watch the sunset. When we came around a sharp turn, and a drunken driver hit us and knocked us off the cliff into the sea. We both made it out of there OK, or so we thought. She passed away silently that night…” 
     Yuizaki looked over toward Tohru, and noticed she was crying. 
     “It sounds so similar to my mom’s story…” 
     “Oh, Tohru-chan, I’m so sorry!” he reached over and gave her a hug. POOF! His hair and eyes were suddenly bright red, and he was wearing a red uniform symbolizing Gemini. 
     “Eh?!” Tohru yelped as she was surprised. 
     “Oh gees…I blew it…” 
     “Are you a member of the Jyuunishi??” 
     “No, the Zodiac. The Second Generation of the Sohma Family. We were cursed more recently than the family was cursed by the spirits of the Jyuunishi. I am Gemini, and my brother Yue-chan, is Aquarius…” 
     POOF! Yuizaki changed back into his normal nekkid self.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
     “So, Honda-san, Oni-san says you found out about the Zodiac.” Yue said to Tohru somewhat quietly. 
     “Hai. And he said you are Aquarius.” she replied and she hugged Yue.
POOF! Yue was suddenly wearing all blue, with blue eyes and hair, with a watery looking glaze to him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
     “Yui-kun, how come none of your stories had Yu-san in them?” Tohru asked Yuizaki later. 
     “I met him about three years after Yumi’s death………….. 

          “Yuizaki Sohma-kun? I am your brother, Yue Sohma. I came to find you. Our     
          mother has died on a sinking ship, the Harmony.” Yue said to Yuizaki after
          meeting in an airport. 
          “Eh?” Yuizaki replied with a clueless expression. 
          “I have been living with mama since papa disappeared when I was little. Then     
          she died, and you were the only person I could turn to.” 
          “Oh?”
 

     “That is how Yue and I met.” Yuizaki said. 
     “And he’s lived with you ever since?” 
     “Hai. He goes to your school.” 
     “Eh? How come I haven’t seen him around. I know most of the people there…even if they aren’t friends.” 
     “He spends most of his time in my classroom, but he can be seen around campus. It is uncommon though. I have to keep an eye on him. He’s a bit flirtatious.” 
     “I heard that!!!” Yue popped into the room, still as Aquarius. He formed a water ball in his hand and threw it at Yuizaki. Immediately after, he poofed into his nekkid self. 
     “Get out of here. You’re indecent.” Yuizaki said firmly. 
     “I don’t think so.” Yue replied, as Tohru silently slipped out of the room through the door behind him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     So now I know about another Sohma family curse, and I’ve met two members of the Zodiac; Yuizaki and Yue.
