[The scene is a small, movie theatre-style lobby. In the foreground is
an couch with a mahogany coffeetable in front of it. Behind that is the 
concession stand, closed, with a sign hanging from one of the
tills saying, "No concessions shall be made for the likes of you."
There is an old-fashioned revolving door (see, this place *is* evil),
and a hallway opposite it. A young, serious-looking woman with long
hair set into a braided bun walks in. She has chestnut brown hair,
green eyes, and is dressed in a no-nonsense grey business suit and
heels.]

Woman: *sits down at coffeetable, opens her briefcase, and looks at
her watch* They should have been here by now. Oh well. More time to
prepare. *pulls out a camcorder and duct tape, using the duct tape to
stap the camera on top of the TV set opposite her*
Female Voice: Excuse me...

[The woman looks up to see a smallish girl in a green, long-sleeved
shirt with a black T-shirt over, blue jeans, and black boots. She
has long blonde hair that trails on the floor behind her for several
feet. A small insignia on the shoulder of her T-shirt bears the NERV
symbol.]

Girl: Hi. I'm Madison Kyosetsu. I'm here for the job offer?
Woman: You may call me Len. Please, have a seat. Once the other two
applicants are here, I'll speak to all of you at once.
Madison: Alright. *walks over and sits down on the corner seat of the
couch*

[A short time later, Len has set up everything to her satisfaction,
and Madison is reading a book that Len had lent her (no pun intended).
The door turns again, and a very tall young man with a short, spiky
haircut and long, uneven bangs walks in with a 14 year old girl with
short, severely straight black hair to just above her shoulders, and
equally severe bangs to just above her eyes. The man has a black
T-shirt with an open, blue button-down shirt over it, semi-baggy
jeans, and tennis. The girl is wearing what appears to be a school
uniform.]

Young Man: I'm Seth Applegate, and this is Overlor- OW! - I mean,
Mai-Yu Han. We're here about the job.
Len: Good, you're all here. Have a seat and we can begin.

[Seth and Mai-Yu walk over and sit next to one another. Madison smiles at 
them over her book. Seth blushes, and Mai-Yu looks at him with her
eyebrows raised, smirking slightly. Madison is oblivious to this,
having gone back to reading after acknowledging them.]

Len: *ignores this exchange* Now, first of all, I would like to say
that you all got the job, and -

[There is a loud clicking sound as all the doors lock at once.]

Len: What the -

[the TV flickers on to reveal a tall woman in her early twenties with
very short, green hair, wire-rim glasses, serious grey eyes, and a
white lab coat. She breaks into an arrogant smirk, and all of the
sudden seems to look like the mad scientist she is.]

Woman: Why hello, lab-rats! My name is Kaysa Foster, but you can call
me Mistress, or My Lady, if you'd prefer.
Len: *eyes widen* Kaysa-sama...why -
Kaysa: I found that I needed a fourth member to complete the
experiment. You were convenient. Tough cookies. Anyhow, If you will
all please introduce yourselves to the camera, we can get a move on.
How about you first, child? *she gestures to Madison, who puts down
the book*
Madison: *smiles* My name is Madison Kyosetsu. I'm 21 years old, and I
was an employee of NERV before they "fired" me, so to speak, because I
knew too much. Fortunately, Gendou Ikari is a poor shot, and I
survived. Now I'm here, looking for a way to make ends meet without
raising suspicion within NERV that I'm alive.
Kaysa: Well, I can assure you they'll have a job finding you here.
Next!
Seth: I'm Seth Applegate, and I'm 23 years old. My parents were ace
star pilots until they were murdered by the henchmen of the Evil
Overlord, Mai-Yu Han. So I figured, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
So I became Mai-Yu's trusted Lieutenant. Then the Evil Empire fell
through and we escaped to Earth. We've been trying to get jobs ever
since.
Kaysa: That's some warped logic if I ever heard it. Girl?
Mai-Yu: I'm Mai-Yu Han. I'm fourteen, and a former Evil Overlord. The
Empire fell thorugh, and Seth suggested we go to some little backwater
planet where no one would ever find us. So, here we are.
Kaysa: Very concise. I like that. Len?
Len: *nearly growling* I'm Len. I'm 25. Kaysa-sama locked me in here
to be a lab rat, regardless of years of loyal service. Blah.
Kaysa: Excelent! Now, I'm not going to go easy on you just because
you're new. Your fanfic today is a confusing little X/1999 Alternate
Universe in the "High School" genre. It's called "School Ties", and it
is my most sincere wish that it causes you pain. Send them the fic,
Mayuko!

[A small girl in all blue (hair, eyes, clothing, and skin is a lighter
shade, grumbles as she wlks forward and feeds a sheaf of paper into a
machine just out of sight of the TV. The screen flickers off, red
lights flash, and klaxons start blaring.]

Len: WE'VE GOT FANFIC SIGN!!
Seth: Huh?
Mai-Yu: What?
Madison: Len-san, what's going on?
Len: Forget it and follow me.

Door Sequence
[Dog bone...6...5...4...3...2...1]

[They sit down in the front seats of a theatre, from left to right,
Seth, Mai-Yu, Madison, and Len.]

Madison: What's this all about, Len-san?
Len: You'll see.
Seth: That's ominous.

>Disclaimers: I don’t own X, and anything associated with it. Clamp
>does.

Mai-Yu: There is a goddess in four parts, and she is known as CLAMP.
All: Amen.

>So please don’t sue me because I have no money and my boss would fire
>me

Madison: That brings back memories...
Seth: Do you have a scar from that?
Madison: Yes, but it would be indecent to show you.
Seth: *nosebleed* Does adyode hab ady Kleedex?
Mai-Yu: *snickers* Here.
Seth: *stops the bleeding* Thanks.

>and replace me with a monkey...yeah...

Len: Well, if your job is really that easy...

>                                    and this is a yoai fic so sorry if that 
>bothers you.

Seth: What is "yoai"?
Mai-Yu: It's either a typo of "yaoi", or something even scarier.
Len: Gah!
Madison: What's "yaoi"?
Mai-Yu: ...Um.
Len: You'll see, hon.
Madison: Uh, okay...

>                  Well here’s the first chapter. Enjoy.

Seth: Not we see you first.
Len: Down, boy. We haven't even gotten to the main event.

>************************************

Madison: STARZ!
Len: Another lame channel that's not worth the extra money you have to
pay for it.

>"...And I don't want the world to see me
>
>'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
>
>When everything's made to be broken
>
>I just want you to know who I am..."
>
>Goo Goo Dolls-Iris

Mai-Yu: Look at it this way. It's not as bad as the soundtrack to Neon
Exodus Evangelion.
Seth: Easy listening strikes back.

>***********************************

Madison: It looks like a bird's-eye-view of Spokane. All potholes.

>Today is no ordinary day for me; in fact it is one of the most
>important.

Seth:(Narrator) I'm finally coming out!
Mai-Yu: Why, Seth! I never suspected!

>Today is my first day at my new school. I’m incredibly nervous
>because

Len:(Narrator)...I'll be the oldest person in my fourth grade class.

>I don’t know anybody since I just moved recently to Tokyo.

Madison: I remember my first day in Tokyo-3. Of course, mine mostly
involved a lot of MIBs and Gendou Ikari, so this might be different.

>Wait; first off let me introduce my self. I’m Shirou Kamui and I’m 16 years 
>old.

All: Hi, Kamui!
Seth: No! Only tell them your name, rank, and serial number!

>            I happen to have the biggest eye fetish.

Len: I think I speak for everyone when I say that we didn't need that.
Mai-Yu: He'd like the part of X that has to do with certain stray
eyeballs. (A/N: I can't believe I just typed that.)

>                                                     For some unknown 
>reason I really like looking at other people’s eyes.

Mai-Yu: Well, my eyes are chocolate brown, Seth's are greyish-green,
and I haven't had the time to look at the others.
Madison: Mine are the same color as Seishirou's from X. That odd
honey-brown color.
Len: Mine are green. Feel better, Kamui?

>                                                    I also happen to like 
>my own very much, they’re an indigo colour.

Mai-Yu: Violet. Quite vividly violet, actually.

>                                                People tell me that they 
>make me look girly, since I’m "fragile" to begin with.

Madison: No, Kamui-kun, girly in a good way. You're a bishounen!

>                                                            I happen
>to think that they’re wrong, even though I know its true.

Seth: You lost me. You know it's true, but you don't? My head hurts.
Madison: *leans over to him, concerned* Are you alright, Seth-san?
Seth: *blushes* Y-yes. Fine!

>I’ve just moved to Tokyo with my mom and aunt from Osaka, since my
>aunt

Len: Ooo! Does this Kamui speak Kansai dialect?!
Mai-Yu: Uh...why?
Len: Kansai dialect is sexy!

>just got a job as the school nurse at Clamp Campus, my new school.
>While that’s the reason they give their friends.

Seth: Of course, the real reason is that Touru has to die, since she
isn't already dead for some strange reason, and Tokiko has to give
birth to the Shinken and die horribly herself in the process.
Mai-Yu: Seth, listen to me. Alternate Universe. Does this phrase mean
anything at all to you?
Seth: No.
Mai-Yu: I didn't think so.

>                                          Yes my aunt did just get a
>job at my new school, but I’ve had some bad problems with my old one making 
>us move.

Madison: Kamui got expelled? For what? Angsting with malicious intent?
Len: Wow. That's the most sarcastic we've heard out of you!
Madison: Sarcastic?

>Now to continue where I left off, ah yes I’ve just finished getting dressed 
>in my uniform, which consisted of a white shirt with a black
>tie

Seth: Well, it's a black-tie school, you know.

>    /I really hate it/, and black pants.

Mai-Yu: Hey, it looks just like the guy's uniforms at my school!
Seth: Mai-Yu...That's because you go to CLAMP Campus.
Mai-Yu: Oh. Right. I knew that.

>                                    I quickly look myself over in the 
>mirror when I hear my mom calling me down for breakfast.

Len:(Kamui) Oh yeah. I'm hot.

>"Kamui hurry up or you won’t be able to eat," I hear my mom shout.

Len: You know, I never ate breakfast when I was going to school.
Mai-Yu: That's not too surprising.

>So I run down to kitchen and give her a quick peck on the cheek
>before

Seth: ...the house burned down around them like it should have weeks
ago.
Madison: Seth-san!
Len: Seth...
Mai-Yu: Let him go. He has CCC Syndrome. He'll run out of steam
eventually.
Madison: CCC Syndrome?
Mai-Yu: Compulsive Continuity Corrector.
Len: Ah.

>sitting down to eat my breakfast. As I’m eating I see my aunt walk
>into the kitchen, so I give her a smile, which is all I can do since
>my mouth is full of cereal.

Len: And not, oh...Miso soup, some other, proper breakfast food.
Seth: Hey! Cereal is proper breakfast food!
Madison: Oh dear. Is this a culture clash?
Mai-Yu: Yes, hon, it is.

>"Good morning would you like me to drive you to school?" I hear my
>aunt ask.
>
>I swallow my food before replying, " No thank you aunt Tokiko, I
>would like to walk."

Madison: Wasn't he worrying about being late before?
Len: ...Um.
Seth: Well, how else are they going to set up the "accidental" meeting
of the love interest?
Madison: *cheerfully* Oh! Of course!

>"If you insist," she responds back as she grabs her lunch. "Well then I’ll 
>see you later," she says before walking off.

Len:(Tokiko) You're on your own, kid. I'm out of here!

>I take a look at the clock a couple minutes later and realize if I don’t
>head out now I’ll be late for my first day.

Madison: Speaking of which, who is the love interest?
Everyone Else: Ah...Well...Er...
Len: You were wondering what yaoi was?
Madison: Yes?
Len: You're about to find out.

>                                            So I pack up, say goodbye
>to my mom and head out the door. As I’m walking down the street I
>take in the scenery.

Mai-Yu:(Tour guide) And to your left is Ueno Park...

>            The sakura trees are marvelous this time of year and I

Seth:(Kamui) ...noticed that there was an awful lot of blood near that
great big one.

>notice that a couple of petals have fallen on to me. Now as I’m
>picking them off I don’t realize that there’s a figure in front of
>me, and I

Len: Three...two...one...

>smash right into him.

Len: ...and we have love interest!
Madison: But, it says him....Oh. Is that what yaoi means? You could
have just said, what with poor Shinji and Kaoru.
Len: Oh...Sorry.

>The figure looks up at me and offers me his hand. He has the nicest golden 
>eyes

Mai-Yu: Seishirou?! Seishirou Sakurazuka is the love interest?!

>            and I notice that he looks like a Goth. His nails are painted 
>black; he’s wearing a black trench coat over his uniform, and
>is wearing black stud earrings.

Seth: Well...if it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck...

>                             Never mind, he is a Goth.

Madison: *finishes Seth's sentence* ...it's a goth?
Seth: Something like that.

>                                                       I also notice that 
>he looks like he could have a very nice smile, but I can only presume since 
>he isn’t smiling.

Len: ...Could it be?
Seth: Could it be what?
Len: Wait a sec and I'll tell you.

>"Are you okay?" he asks

Mai-Yu: I still say that's a top contender for the stupidest question
ever asked.
Madison: Absolutely. Especially after being shot several times in the
chest.
Mai-Yu: You're very bitter about that, aren't you?
Madison: Extremely.

>I can only nod since my attention is still to his eyes. I see him
>look me over, and then I realize that he’s wearing the same uniform
>as me.

Len: Kamui's not real fast on the draw in this fic, is he?

>He sticks out his and I shake it.
>
>"Monuh Fuuma," he says.

All Except Seth: *break up laughing*
Seth: *twitches* MONOU.
Len: *calms down* Either way, I was right. It was who I thought he
was.

>"Shirou Kamui. Nice to meet you to," I reply.
>
>"I haven’t seen you around before, are you new?" he asks.

Seth: Everyone, resist the urge to sing.
Len:(Kamui) As new as all the other clones, I suppose.
Seth: Ugh, missed that one.

>" Yeah today’s my first day," I reply solemnly.

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) I'll be holding a ritual sacrafice after school. Want
to come?

>"Well then would you like to walk to school with me?" he inquires.
>
>"Um, sure Monuh-san," I answer back.

Madison:*motherly* Don't you talk back to me, young man!
Seth:(Kamui) Sorry, Mom.

>"It’s just Fuuma, Kamui," he tells me.

Len:(Fuuma, lisping) But you can call me "Snuggle Bunny".

>So we walk off to school and I once again get caught up in my surroundings, 
>but when I look over at Fuuma I see him staring at me.

Mai-Yu:(Fuuma, bad Transylvanian accent) You are getting sleepy...Very
sleepy...Now valk to ze vindow...VATCH OUT FOR ZAT-
Len: *WHUMP*
Mai-Yu:(same) ...stool.

>When he realizes that I caught him staring he looks away. We walk to rest 
>of the way in an awkward silence.

All: (Awkward Silence) ...
Madison: Well, that was fun!

>When we finally arrive, I notice that people are staring at us and
>then I hear whispering.

Madison:(teenage girl, whispering) Oh my God, it's them! The
bishounen!
Mai-Yu:(same) What do we say?!
Len:(same) Ask one of them out!
Mai-Yu:(same) No, you!
Len:(same) No, you!
Madison:(same) They're bishounen. They're probably with *each other*.
Len:(same) Awww...
Mai-Yu:(same) Nuts!

>/I wonder what their problem is/ I think, but then I realize that

Seth: They're teenage girls, you two are bishounen. They're lusting
after you, dorkwad! Enjoy it!

>they’re not looking at me, but their looking at Fuuma.

Seth: Oh. Nevermind. They're lusting after him.
Len: Can't say I blame them.

>I see him look at them with an expressionless face and walk off. Now that 
>he’s left me alone in front of the school, I start wondering
>where

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) He went so that I can follow him and drool at his rear.
Seth: Mai-Yu...
Mai-Yu: Hey, it's what I'd do.
Seth: Why am I not surprised?
Mai-Yu: Because it's what I did to you when we first met.
Seth: Gah!
Len: That's more information that we needed.

>the hell I’m supposed to be. I walk off into a random direction that takes 
>me inside.

Madison: I can only assume that would mean forward, as he left you
facing the school.

>As I’m looking around I decide to go to the office to get my
>timetable seeing that I don’t have a lot of time before classes
>start.

Seth: Good policy to have, right there.

>       Therefore I make my way to the office after walking into
>3other rooms accidentally and getting yelled at for it.

Mai-Yu: You know, when I first arrived at CLAMP Campus, the offices
weren't that hard to find.

>                                                        I finally
>make it to the office to pick up my timetable and look at it
>carefully.

Len:(Kamui) Lesse...Applied Black Magic, Demon Summoning 101...Yep,
everything's here!

>When I walk out of the office I hear the bell ring. /It’s not a
>pretty sound; it sounds like a phone ringing. I really wonder how
>everyone can stand it. /

Madison: Well, that depends on what phone you're talking about. I
mean, a cell phone ring could sound like anything...

>At last I’ve found my classroom after getting lost for about
>5minutes. The teacher sees me arrive and motions me to the front of
>the class.

Seth:(Ominous) STAND AND BE JUDGED, INFIDEL.
Mai-Yu: You do that very well, Seth.
Seth: Thank you.

>"Class we have a new transfer student today," he says while writing
>my name on the board, "This is Shirou Kamui."

Len: Just in case you want to know which Kanji his name uses...
Seth: Too...much...Kanji...Head...hurting...

>"Hello," the class greats/while most of them anyways/

Madison: "The class greats while most of them anyways." This is one of
those things I'm not supposed to think about, huh?

>"Hi," I reply back.

All: *bored* Hi.

>The teacher scans the class to find me a seat, and as he’s doing that
>I look around and see everyone looking at me.

Seth:(Kamui) They're staring at me...

>                                            I’m trying my hardest not
>to flinch when I notice a familiar pair of golden eyes.

Len: *mock sweetly* Guess who?

>                                                     It was Fuuma.
>Our gazes meet for a couple of seconds before the teacher turns to
>me.

Mai-Yu:(Teacher) Sorry, we don't have any seats. You'll have to go
back home. Oh, well.

>"Kamui please go sit at the back next to Fuuma," he says while
>pointing out the seat at the back of the room.

Seth: Man, this fic is really stretching to pair these two.
Madison: Whatever do you mean?
Seth: *blushes* Ah...nevermind.
Mai-Yu: *mutters to Seth* Does someone have a crush?
Seth: Shut up, you.
Mai-Yu: That's no way to speak to your Overlord. *giggles*
Seth: Argh.

>I nod and walk over, still feeling my classmate’s eyes burning into
>my back.

Len: There's only one other classmate.
Madison: Goodness, it must be a very empty classroom.

>When I sit down I look over to Fuuma and give him an unsure smile. He 
>doesn’t even glance at me. I start wondering why, when I realize that

Seth:(Kamui) ...his Dark Kamui personality was kicking in, and I had
better run for my life...or at least my physical purity.

>someone is touching my arm. I turn to see this girl sitting next to
>me.

Mai-Yu: Not any particular girl, just some girl.

>"Kamui-san you shouldn’t waist your time on him, he’s just a freak
>that isn’t worth the trouble," she tells me.

Len:(Kamui) Well, you're obviously not much better.

>I don’t even reply to her. Instead I look away and take another look
>at Fuuma who’s now looking out the window.

Madison:(Fuuma) Hum-dee-dum, looking out the window...Who's that
strange guy by the big sakura tree?

>                                        With nothing better to do I
take out my binder and pen and start writing down what the teacher is
>writing on the board.

Seth:(Teacher) Ah, Second Impact...I remember when it all occured...

>/Today is going to be one of those days/ I think to myself as the
>bell rings telling me that finally lunch has come.
>
>"Would you like to eat lunch with me and my friends Kamui-san?" the
>girl next to me asks.

Mai-Yu: Certainly has a lot of nerve, doesn't she?

>With no one else to eat with I agree.

Seth:(Kamui) Even though she insulted my friend, but hey, it's about
as logical as the rest of this.

>"Oh and by the way I’m Hokuto," she starts, "and its nice to meet
>you!"

Madison: *Hokuto* was insulting Fuuma for no apparent reason? I find
that difficult to believe.
Len: I know. It seems a little...I don't know...*off*, for Hokuto.

>I smile, and then I notice that she has the nicest shade of green in
>her eyes. Before I can even reply to her she takes my hand and
>literally drags me off to where her friends are.

Mai-Yu: Yikes.
Seth: Forceful little thing, isn't she?
Len: That's Hokuto, alright.

>/Maybe today isn’t going to be one of those days after all/ I think 
>happily.

Len: And Kamui forgets Fuuma completely.
Madison: Gracious. I guess this explains the whole "Dark Kamui" thing.

>***********************************

Mai-Yu: *singing* All I see is blue in my heart...
Seth: What the...
Mai-Yu: C'mon... Stars are in the sky, the sky is blue...I'm really
reaching here, aren't I?
Seth: Yes.

>A/N: Well finally here’s another chapter, Yay! Sorry that it took me
>so long

Len: No hurry!
Madison: I don't know...I kind of like the story so far.
Len: Heretic.

>     but school is killing me and I haven’t been well, so I’m off to
>the doctors again.

Seth: All of them?

>               Lets hope I get better soon. Oh, and I want to thank 
>everybody who reviewed, it made me soooooo happy and it gives me something 
>to read.

Mai-Yu: Well so do we, but i doubt you'll be too happy with us.

>                   And sorry about the errors from the last story, I
>was too lazy to fix them,

Len: That explains a lot.

>                      but hopefully this chapter is better. *hint
>please review hint* I hope you enjoy this, and if you have any ideas
>please tell me, I’d love to hear them. Thanx!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy

Madison: Cheerful, isn't she?
Seth: I'm vaguely frightened.

>*********************************

Madison: Look at the pretty constellation!
Len: The stars say that we'll be watching bad fanfiction sent to us by
a mad scientist out to destroy the collective sanity of the human
race. Accurate, isn't it?

>As Hokuto is dragging me out of class, I looked back and noticed
>Fuuma still sitting in his seat. He hasn’t even moved since the bell
>rang.

Seth: He's as bored as we are!
Madison: Shhh! I think he fell asleep. Isn't he just adorable when
he's sleeping?
Len: Like a psychotic little angel.

>/odd/I think. Before I ‘m able to say anything I ‘m already half way
>to the cafeteria, so I decide to take in my surroundings just to make
>sure I wont get lost finding it again.

Seth: We have secretly switched the brains of Kamui Shirou and Ryouga
Hibiki. Let's watch.

>When we got there I notice that we are standing in front of a table
>full of smiling people.

Mai-Yu: Yeargh! Never trust that many smiling people.

>                   While I was looking around Hokuto started
>introducing me to them.

Len:(Hokuto) These are the servants of the Adversary! ^_^

>"Guys," she began, "this is Kamui, Kamui this is Keiichi, Akira,
>Kotori, and my twin Subaru"

Seth:(Hokuto) Even though Subaru and I are twenty-one, and Akira is
presumably older than all of us, but hey, why argue semantics? Let's
eat!

>"Hi," they greeted me with.
>
>I noticed that Kotori looked a little like Fuuma, she defiantly had
>the same eyes as him.

Madison: She had the same eyes, but she was darned if she would like
it!

>                  I caught myself staring and after a couple of
>seconds I snapped out of it.

Madison: My goodness...he really does have an eye fixation, doesn't
he?

>                     I still stood since I didn’t know where to sit,
>but then I saw Subaru move his bag and motion for me to sit next to
>him. I nod and walk over.

Len: How exciting. Wake me up when we're finished with this
scintillating action scene.

>As soon as I sit down I start to eat my lunch, but as I’m eating I’m 
>getting this feeling that someone is looking at me.

Seth: Gets that feeling a lot, doesn't he?
Mai-Yu: I think it has something to do with that eye thing.

>                                                   So I put my lunch down 
>and turn to face Subaru. He is the one looking at me, and when
>he realized that I noticed he started to blush.

Girls: Awwwwww...

>                                             /he looks really cute/ I also 
>noticed that his eyes are a different colour than Hokuto’s;
>they’re a dark green that sparkles. Now it was my turn to blush.

Girls: *more emphatically* AWWWWWWWWW... ^_^

>"Um... Subaru if your Hokuto’s twin then why aren’t we in the same
>class?" I ask

Seth:(Subaru) Well, I *am* twenty-one.

>"Well, I’m in a gifted mathematics program so my schedule is
>different," Subaru replied

Len: Okay, I'll only say this once, I promise. Is there a period
shortage in the land of fanfiction?

>" Do you want to have a job dealing with math when you’re done high 
>school?" I inquire

Madison:(Subaru) No. My grandma's making me.
Len: Ah-HAH! That must've been sarcastic!
Madison: What do you mean? It's how I got into NERV.
Len: Gah.

>"I want to be an accountant," says Subaru

Mai-Yu: Ah, like the guys at Enron.
Seth:(Darth Vader) JOIN THE DARK SIDE. IT IS THE ONLY WAY.

>"Really?" I ask
>
>"No, but my grandmother wants me to study it just incase," Subaru replies 
>while sticking his tongue out at me

Len: Oh, very mature.

>I start to laugh and soon after Subaru starts to join me. We look 
>incredibly stupid, but we just can’t help it.

Mai-Yu: Hey, that's what being a kid is all about. Looking stupid
without having to care.

>                                              Subaru stops suddenly
>and I look at him questioningly.

Seth:(look) What's your problem?

>"Sorry Kamui-kun but I better get going or I’m going to be late," Subaru 
>says

Madison: For what? No one else seems to be getting up.

>"Alright, bye," I reply
>
>"Want to do something after school," Subaru quickly asks

Seth:(Kamui) the ritual sacrafice offer still stands.

>"Sure," I answer
>
>"Okay, I’ll meet you here after, byyyyeeeeeee," Subaru says while running 
>off.

Len: I miss angsty Subaru. He was cooler. And closer to my own age.

>Now that’s Subaru is gone I have nobody to talk to. Don’t get me
>wrong, Hokuto is great but she’s too preoccupied with Akira to talk
>to me. With

Madison: Oh dear. Kakyou's not going to be happy about this.

>            nothing else to do I start to pack up my lunch, now as
>I’m doing so Kotori is talking to me. I haven’t heard a word that
>she’s said so far and I don’t really care.

Len: Well, aren't we nice.
Mai-Yu: Well, this guy isn't going to win Mr. Congenialty any time
soon.

>                         But me being Mr. Polite an all I start to listen.

Seth: If you were polite, you would have been listening in the first
place.

>" Kamui-chan have you meet my brother, he’s Fuuma?" Kotori innocently asks

Seth:(Kamui) I needed the money! Wait...Are we talking about the same
Fuuma?

>Everybody stops talking and turns to us.

Len:(Kamui) Yikes! It's creepy when they all turn really slowly at the
same time like that.

>"Why on earth would Kamui-kun care about that freak?" I hear somebody ask

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) Because he's nice, unlike some people.

>"Just because he’s your brother doesn’t mean people give a shit about him," 
>another says

Madison: You know, I seem to remember Fuuma being pretty popular in
school in the manga.

>"Come on, the guys a loser, who even cares if he exists," someone
>else chirps in

Seth: I don't know, you all seem pretty fixated on him.

>Kotori looks like she’s about to cry, and Hokuto looks pissed.

Len: This being the same Hokuto who insulted Fuuma earlier?
Seth: Um...I...just don't know anymore.

>"I’m sorry," is all Kotori manages to get out before she runs off
>
>"Don’t worry Kamui," Hokuto insures me, "she’ll be fine." With that I see 
>her leave after Kotori.

Mai-Yu: You know, for an outcast, everyone seems awfully focused on
Fuuma in this school.
Len: Eh, they're all just trying to cover up for the fact that every
last one of them wants him.

>I’m now left yet again alone, and I’ve deiced to go for a walk. It couldn’t 
>hurt.

Seth: That's right, Kamui, invoke the wrath of Murphy's Law!

>              I’ve finally gotten myself outside, I’m happy about
>since unfortunately I just got lost. But that doesn’t really matter
>since I found my way. Anyways, as I was saying I’m outside and I’m
>begging to walk around,

Seth: Okay, raise your hand if you got all of that.
*stillness*
Seth: Okay, raise your hand if you got any of that.
*yet more stillness*
Seth: That's what I thought.

>             but as I start to notice Fuuma sitting under a tree...
>by himself. I don’t know if I should go over to him, but he looks so
>sad.

Mai-Yu: *sings* When your heart is aching, laugh, clown, laugh...
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Len: That was disturbing.

>Okay so I’m walking over. No harm done. However my stomach is
>turning, this isn’t a good sign.

Madison: Or maybe you're just, y'know, nervous. It happens around the
people you like.
Seth: *starts coughing*
Madison: Are you alright, Seth-san?
Seth: *clears throat, blushes* Fine.

>                        Nonetheless I’m still walking. He hasn’t
>moved but I know he can tell I’m here. I think I should just sit down
>next to him. Now he knows I’m here.

Len: But he did before, too. I think.

>"Kamui," Is all Fuuma says

Madison:(Kamui) That's my name, don't wear it out.

>I just nod at him and he returns to reading his book. After a few moments 
>he speaks again.

Mai-Yu: Shocking.

>"Kamui, why are you here? I’m sure the others have already
>"discussed" me with you."

Seth:(Kamui) Because I'm above superficial stuff like that, ya dip.

>"Um, well, you just looked like you needed some company," I reply

Len:(Fuuma) Buzz off, runt.

>Fuuma gives me this odd look, and he, he just gave me a smile. It was

All: AAAAHHHH!!!
Seth: Dark Kamui is awakening! Run, Kamui!

>small, but still a smile. Before I know it I find myself smiling back
>at him. Yet again lost in his marvelous golden eyes.

Mai-Yu: It's the powers of the Dark Kamui taking hold of his mind.
Madison: Jeez, you guys, it's not like he's going to cause a forced
evacuation of Kamui's cranium. Chill.

>Before I know it we’re staring at each other and he’s starting to
>lean in closer to me. I’m leaning in too, but I stop. We both open
>our eyes and stay still. I was right; the ground is starting to
>shake.

Mai-Yu:(Fuuma) Relax. Godzilla will pass through from time to time.
You learn to ignore it.

>       Sooner than I can say “Mississippi”, Fuuma has me wrapped
>tightly in his arms on the ground.

All: Whoah!
Mai-Yu: I'm thinking this is neither the time, nor the place, Fuuma.
Madison: Never stopped him before.
Seth: You've been following X in Asuka, haven't you?
Madison:  Is it that obvious?

>               I clutch on to him, just as the ground really starts
>to shake. Oh god, it’s an earthquake.

Len: And EARTHQUAKE?! In JAPAN?! SAY IT ISN'T SO!!!
Seth: You've made your point.
Len: I certainly hope so. My throat hurts now.

>**********************************

Mai-Yu:(meteorologist) And we'll be having clear skies tonight...
Seth: Let's get out of here.

[They stand up and leave the theatre. Door Sequence.
1...2...3...4...5...6...Dog Bone]

[Madison walks over and flops onto the couch, full length on one side.
Mai-Yu wanders over to the concession stand to see if she can't break
in and get something to eat. Suddenly, the TV flickers on, revealing
the face of Kaysa.]

Kaysa: How did it go?
Madison: I liked it.
Len: I still say you're a heretic.
Seth: Uh. That pretty much sums up my thoughts on the subject.
Mai-Yu: Where is the food?!
Kaysa: It's in the kitchen, of course.
Mai-Yu: Kit...chen...?
Kaysa: Oh, I forgot to tell you. You will be staying here for the
duration of my experiments. You will find the bedrooms and batchrooms
near the kitchen Have fun in your new home, ninnies! Press the button,
Mayuko.
Mayuko: Yeah, whatever, Your Highness.
Kaysa: That's the spirit!

[End.]
