Rereading that, I see I make Kasumi sound a lot like Tohru. I don't mean to at all! It's just, I don't want everyone to have a depressed personality because the parents died.
Oh, and by syaing all of the parents had died...Well, I would figure that's what would happen, since this whole age group was a descendent of the Fruits Basket characters.
Maybe not...And if not, just kind of post I'm totally off and I'll delete it. I was just rushed today -the big report thing due, which I notice no one really took notice of in the < V ^ game x.x'-...I'll redo it! ^^'

[ Haha, actually Tohru never divorced. Her husband fled but a divorce was never filed because Tohru kept hoping he would come back. But don't bother going back to edit, I just wanted to clear that up. ]

OoC//: 'Kay, I have absolutely no idea who else will be joining our lovely congregation here, so I am going to use a filler character, whom will be making quite a fuss over the escapee known as Rei. 'Kay, so here we go.
BiC//: Ayumi Sohma was not a high-ranked maid, to say the least. She almost always seemed to be stuck with drudge work, such as cleaning the bathrooms, doing yard-work, delivering food, etc. So when the Headmaid called upon Ayumi Sohma to watch the Head's room and tend to him, she was relieved.
The girl checked in on Sohma-sama every half-an-hour, trying to get a good rep with the Headmaid. So, when Ayumi found The Head balled up, she figured it was just his odd way of sleeping, and went outside for a coffee break. Bad Move Ayumi. When the under-achieving maid made her way back to the family head's chambers, only to find them /empty/, she did nothing short of panicking. Loudly. Which attracted the attention of /every/ maid in the establishment at the time. Have I mentioned that Ayumi's a bit of a ditz?
After getting a five-minute lecture from the Headmaid, Ayumi, along with a group of about seven other maids, were to run frantically around in fear of loosing their jobs. Or rather, they were supposed to split up and search the grounds for Sohma-sama.
Ayumi hadn't bothered to listen to the Headmaid when she had told her to look in the gardens, no, Ayumi had check by the main gates first! Here goes yet another: Bad Idea Ayumi.
She searched frantically, looking around, deep green eyes strained. Previously she had tied back her brownish hair, leaving it in a simple braid reaching mid-back. She wore odd clothing for a female maid... Black dress pants, a white men's shirt, and black goth-like boots. Her boots smashed on the ground as she looked around desperately, finally spotting someone else. So, the girl looked a bit... scared, but perhaps she was just a maid afraid of loosing her job!
Ayumi strided confidently over to the girl, asking her a simple question. "So, Have you spotted Sohma-sama yet?" Ayumi crossed her fingers, hoping desperately that the girl knew where thier... 'beloved' head was located.

"So, Have you spotted Sohma-sama yet?" said a voice that sounded slightly panicked. Whirling around, she spotted a girl who looked near her age, at least.
Sohma-san? For a split second, she had thought that the girl had been referring to her. She knew this was The Sohma Estate, but to hear her...middle name out loud at a foreign place, and she being a bit of a forgetful girl, was quite a start.
"No, I haven't seen...Sohma-san," she replied delicately, figuring the girl had taken her for someone she wasn't. Looking down, she realized she could easily be taken for as a maid. Her long, dark hair was in a loose tie hanging over one shoulder, a fitted white bouse with only the tiniest bit of lace around the bust over her torso, while her lower half was in a knee length skirt. It would be easy to wash and scrub in it but still look presentable, which had been the exact look she'd been going for.
Deciding that now wouldn't be the time to pester her with directions to the nearest person who could help her on her quest, she said, "Would you like me to help you look for Sohma-san?"
True, she had no clue who Sohma-san was. Perhaps they were a boy, or a girl, maybe they were young (most probable, since little children were mischievous) or maybe a wandering old person.

"Oh! I'm suprised you haven't been sent out to look for him already..." Ayumi's reply came out curt, then she gave the girl another once-over. "You don't work here, do you? Are you looking for someone?" Her hands found thier way to her hips, and she cocked her head at the girl, green eyes staring intently, waiting for an answer.

"Well...yes...kind of," she said lamely. "I came to see the head of the household. For a job." She added the last part hastily, though she couldn't see how it would matter to the girl in front of her. She bit her tongue, stopping herself from saying anymore.

The girls eyes widened, then she smiled, mischief replacing suprise. "Well, You could knock out two birds with one stone.... Find Sohma-sama, who just happens to head our family, and I'm sure the Headmaid will give you work as a maid! Plus you'll have a chance to talk with Rei-san." She released her hands from behind her back, returning them to a spot behind her head. "I'd start in the gardens, that was where I was to go!" She dropped one hand from behind her head, poing in the direction of the main gardens.

Must be a cousin! Kasumi suddenly realised, taking a few quicker strides to the other two's destination and reaching them in a mere matter of moments [haha tongue twister]. "Konnitchiwa Sohma-sama," the girl greeted, setting down the two duffel bags she had in her hand at their presence. She made the statement kind of general, so if one would prefered to be called something else, she wouldn't be insulting. They look like two ordinary maids though... she thought, looking down at her own outfit of a blueish dress, color made out of scattered hues of dark blue. Maybe there was a memo I didn't get... It looked quite like the one her mother wore when first meeting Tohru, but I don't want to copy anything too much. I mean, this is a new generation, not history repeating itself! ... Right?

Ayumi's head snapped around to look at the newest arrival to the estates. She studied Kasumi for a moment.... Lets see here.... Brown hair, blue dress, respectful.... "Kasumi-san?" She asked, taking a short bow. "Sorry, but I really don't have time to talk now, Rei-sama has gone missing. Again." She smiled at the girl in front of her, taking a nervous look around for the headmaid.

She glanced at the new arrival, bowing low as well, though she felt extremely uncomfortable. She was being such an intrusion...maybe coming here was a bad idea after all.

Ayumi turned to the other girl again, wondering why she wasn't gone yet. "So, are going to go look for Rei-sama? Or do you plan to stay job-less?" Okay, so Ayumi was a bit impaitent, but it /was/ both of thier jobs on the line here.

She blushed and spun around on her heel, not even giving herself the chance to say sorry and too embarrassed to tell her she had needed help getting to the gardens. She had no clue where everything was, but it couldn't be too far away.
She wandered, following the flowers, until she came to a very large garden. The only problem was, there were so many long trees and bushes besides the flowers that would give this Sohma-san easy hiding abilities.

OoC//: Posting as Rei for a moment.
The sun was becoming painful to her light sensitive eyes, the screeches of the distressed maids too hard for the head to block out. No matter how nice the fresh air of the garden felt on her parched lungs, or how enticing the scents of the flowers were to her deprived nose, she was going to need to re-locate.
Stiffly, the family head rose, keeping her head down, and hands in her pockets, she was literally the spitting image of her predesessor. She shuffled out of the gardens, making sure she kept to the shadows, trying to make herself non-descript, allthough she seemed to stand out like no-other. Rei didn't seem to notice the girl outside of the gardens, proved by her clumsy-ness, bumping right into the young girl.

||Oooh, I love your icon Aki-san ^o^||
Kasumi smiled, glad to be recognised so easily. Obviously, however, there was no time for conversation. She nodded as an accepting responce to Ayumi's statement, then turned to follow the other, figureing that she would need help. The other girl had dissappeared much more quickly than her gaze could follow though, so she was stuck in the front door, by herself. Well, nothing banning me away from the main house, so might as well move in, she thought, picking up her bags and making her way to a room she had loved. It had a perfect view of the sakura trees outside, their beautiful blossoms framing a delicate scene that calmed the boar so.
After she'd set down the bags though, the scene was interrupted by a movement caused by something other than the gentle breeze. Rei-sama...? But I thought she had to stay inside, Kasumi thought, but shrugged it off. The new girl was out there also, and she didn't hear any protesting shouts, so the Jyunishi decided to cool it in the room and watch. Well, at least until something started to get interesting...Or bad, for that matter.

She let out a startled yelp as someone walked directly in front of her. "Oh!" she said, stumbling back a bit but managing to keep her balance. "Hello," she said with a blink, "are you Sohma-san?"
