[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. On the couch are Seth, Madison, Mai-Yu, and
Len, all in casual clothing, are apparently in the middle of a
conversation.]

Len: ...and that's how I came to work for Kaysa, and get trapped here.
How about you, Madison? You're the only one who hasn't spoken up.
Madison: *blushes* You don't want to hear about me. It's a long story,
and kind of complicated anyway.
Seth: We have time.
Madison: *looks up suddenly, and glances at the button that meant a
visit from Kaysa* Ummm...

[The light flashes.]

Madison: *looking relieved* Oh, I guess it'll have to wait until
another time. Laverne and Shirley are calling. *presses the button*

[The screen flickers on to reveal our favorite mad doctor, Kaysa
Foster, dressed, for some ineffable reason, in a rainbow tutu.]

Len: Kaysa...? What the he-
Kaysa: *blushing furiously* Never you mind! It's the sixth chapter of
"School Ties"! Now get in there! Send the fanfic, Mayuko!

[Mayuko, dressed in an ice blue tutu and completely apathetic to the
whole situation, pirouettes, and leaps over to the button in one
bound, then bends over to send the fanfic with her upper body and one
leg parallel to the ground, balancing on one toe-shoe.]

Mayuko: *flatly* Whatever. Back to your lesson.

[The screen flickers off, red lights flash, and klaxons start
blaring.]

All: WE'VE GOT FANFIC SIGN!!!

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.]

Mai-Yu: ...A rainbow tutu?
Kaysa:(intercom) Shut up!

>A/N: Sadame_XX, thank you for caring about my health that means a lot
>to me.

Madison: We do hope you get better, Lianne-san.

>       Liz, Inferno, and the rest who reviewed thank you! Here's the new 
>chapter and finally we get more Subaru, Yay! Well, please enjoy.

Len: Another day, another chapter. Wheeeeeee.
Mai-Yu: Hey, you never know...

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

Seth: I'm running short on star jokes.

>SLAM!

All: Dunk?
Len: That anime sucked.
Seth: ...Sports anime. *shudders*

>The sound of a door closing wakes me up from my slumber. I look down and 
>see that Fuuma isn't with me anymore. His clothes are gone and I

All: Whoah!
Mai-Yu:(Kamui) ...can't seem to remember anything about last night...

>see my school uniform on the floor, I for one didn't put it there.

Len: Yeah, Fuuma did.
Seth: Are we going to have to have a talk, Len?
Len: ...I'll be good.

>I get up and look around the house just to check if Fuuma is still here. Of 
>course he isn't, he left after all.

Madison: I can't imagine anyone else closing the door if you were
asleep.

>As I'm getting dressed I realize that I only have a few minutes left before 
>school starts.

Seth: What, again?
Mai-Yu: This certainly seems to happen to poor Kamui a lot, doesn't
it?

>                       I can't afford to miss another day, so I bolt out of 
>the house without eating breakfast or taking any money with me.

Madison: Money?
Seth: You know, for lunch.
Madison: Lunch?
All: *give Madison an odd look*
Madison: Did I say something wrong?

>I do end up getting to school on time,

Len: A miracle in and of itself, considering his sense of direction in
this fic.

>                                       but it doesn't save me from my
>sensei's wrath about missing school yesterday without "parental 
>permission".

All: *laugh*
Mai-Yu:(Kamui) It was kind of unavailable at the time, Sensei,
considering she was dead.

>             I try my best to answer his questions, but he's on of those 
>people that even if you don't know you can't stand.

Seth: It's Asuka, then?
Len: I did wonder.

>                                                          Man am I lucky, 
>not.

Madison: With Asuka as your sensei, I'd say not.

>By now I've noticed that Fuuma isn't sitting at his seat. He isn't in
>the class at all.

Mai-Yu: This does not bode well.
Madison: Are you guys going to start that "Dark Kamui" thing again?

>                  He really was lying when he said that there was nothing 
>wrong.

Len: D'ya think? He only yelled it. That's never a sign of anything
*wrong* or anything.
Seth: Whoah, there. Laying it on a bit thick, aren't we?
Len: You noticed?
Seth: *sigh*

>              Well, all that's left is for me to worry, but it's hard to do 
>when you're being yelled at. I'll just call him later.

Madison: That would be a good idea.
Mai-Yu: It's amazing.
Len: What?
Mai-Yu: She really has no concept of sarcasm.

>Finally, I get to sit down and pretend like I'm not here. Hey I sit at the 
>back of the class, who's going to care?

Seth: Every CLAMP fangirl on the planet.
Girls: YEAH!
Seth: See?

>                                               Right then I hear someone 
>whisper my name, it's Hokuto. Apparently someone does care.

Seth: Eh...close enough.

>She quickly hands me a note before continuing her work.

Len:(Kamui) Andre, Andre! I've got the secret documents!

>Since I'm not in a mood to do any work I take a look at the note. It says:

All:(note) Kamui, I am your...
Mai-Yu:(Kamui) What the...?

>// Kamui,

Madison: Wouldn't it be funny if that really was what it said?

>I would like it very much if you had lunch with me today. If you would like 
>too, please meet me in front of the school at the begging

Seth:(Kamui) He's going to make me beg?
Len:(Kamui) This might be more fun than I thought...
Seth: Gah!
Len: I couldn't resist. I won't do it again.
Seth: Promise?
Len: Promise.

>of lunch. Have fun in class, HAHAHA.

Mai-Yu: Wow. Subaru's getting nuttier every day.

>Subaru. //

Madison: Slash is right.
Seth: ...Um.
Madison: Yes, Seth-san?
Seth: *blushes* N-nothing.

>Putting the note away I decide that I'm going to go. Hey it'll be fun
>and I don't have to be in school either, which is a bonus.

Mai-Yu: That's always a bonus...
Seth: This is preventing you from being in school.
Mai-Yu: ...Or at least lessens the pain.

>Taking a look at my watch I see that there's still an hour left of
class.

All: Yawn.

>      Also, sensei just announced that he's giving us a "Pop quiz". 
>Bastard.

Mai-Yu: Well, as long as you *did the work* pop quizes are a breeze.

>1 Hour later,

>That was some quiz. It wasn't hard since I learnt most of the information 
>at my old school,

Len: In *sigh* Osaka...

>                               but I'm pretty sure there were some trick 
>questions. Like I sad before, Bastard.

Seth: No no no! The sensei is Fat Bastard, from Austin Powers!
Girls: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Len: That's even *worse* than Dark Kamui!
Madison: At least Dark Kamui is evil in a darkly attractive way.
Mai-Yu: Fat Bastard is just...Argh.

>On the bright side the lunch bell has finally rung so I get to go
>have lunch with Subaru. Yay.

Len: He certainly sounds enthusiastic...

>The halls are pretty packed so it takes me a little longer than expected to 
>get to the front of the school.

All: Don't get lost!
Mai-Yu: ...Again.

>                                            There I see Subaru pacing
>back and forth. Maybe he thinks that I wont come, or maybe he's just an 
>impatient person. Either way I'm about to find out.

Len: Or maybe he's worried about you or something...nah! Couldn't be!

>Before I even get to Subaru, he notices me and starts to wave. I wave back 
>and finally get to him.

Seth:(Kamui) ...right after coming out of that broom closet. I'm still
not sure how I got there...
Madison:(Kamui) At least it wasn't Poland, this time.

>"So, Kamui what are you in the mood for?" Subaru asks

All: It's Twinkie Time!

>"Well, I don't exactly have any money on me.." I reply solemnly

Len:(Kamui) Mother refused to leave me any money in her will.
Mai-Yu:(Touru's Voice on Record) ...up yours...up yours...up yours...

>"Don't worry about, it will be my treat," Subaru happily tells me.

Madison: How nice of him! *smiles*
Len: The genkiness of this girl is palpable.

>"Thank you," I exclaim

Seth: There's a punctuation mark for that, you know.

>"You didn't answer my question," Subaru points out.

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) TEA! GIVE ME TEA!!!
Seth: The hikaru shidou House Blend. Motto: "Hee-hee. The walls are
melting..."
Madison: Now, now. I don't think we want to make Syaoran-kun mad at
us...

>"Your money, your choice," I answer back

Madison:(Subaru, mysteriously) You must make a choice, Kamui...
Len:(Kamui) Subaru, are you okay?

>We end up playing Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide. I'm Sushi and Subaru is 
>Sandwiches.

Madison: Mmmm...Amaebi...

>Subaru ends up winning so we're going to eat Sandwiches. That's not too 
>bad.

Mai-Yu: Well, you gotta admit, sandwiches do fill you up without
spending a fortune like you would on sushi...

>We walk over to a Coffee place near the school and we sit down
>waiting for our orders to be taken.

Seth:(Kamui) Ah, how relaxing...There go some cherry blossoms...and
there are some pretty white feathers...and, oh look! It's Kotori's
disembodied head!
Len: Kotori's death. That was a bright moment in my life.

>We take some time to look at the menu and then the waitress comes over. I 
>get a Ham sandwich with a Coke and Subaru gets a Turkey sandwich and a 
>Coke.

Len: No one shall be seated during the electrifying "Sandwich Ordering
Scene"!

>After the waitress leaves it's just Subaru and me sitting in silence.
>That is until Subaru sneezes and I say, "Bless you".
>
>"I've just been blessed by Kamui himself," Subaru jokes

All: ...Subaru knows something.

>Following that we talk about little things before our waitress comes back 
>with our meals.
>
>After taking a bite of his sandwich Subaru poses a question to me.

Madison:(Subaru, thoughtfully) How mad would a woodchuck get if a big
neon pink Koala bear named Ishtar ran in and chucked all the wood
before the woodchuck could?
Mai-Yu: That's...very odd, Madison.

>"Kamui, I know I already asked you this, but is everything all right."

Seth:(Kamui) I thought you were going to ask me a question?

>"Yes," I quickly reply

All: Wrong!

>"I don't believe you," Subaru tells me

Len:(Subaru) I'm an Onmyouji, baka. You can't lie to me.

>"It's really none of your business," I snap

Mai-Yu: Wow! Score one to Destiny-boy!

>"Sorry," Subaru tells me

Seth:(Lister) Tetchy!

>Now we're juts sitting here and staring at each other and eating our 
>lunches.

Madison:(Kamui) You blinked.
Len:(Subaru) I didn't!

>         My guilt for snapping at Subaru gets to me.
>
>"No, I'm sorry it's just hard to talk about," I inform Subaru. That gets me 
>a smile from him.

Seth:(Subaru, thinking) Bwahahahaha...I have found his weakness!

>"Oh it's alright Kamui, but just remember that I'm here for you and
>if you ever need anyone to talk to it's me," Subaru notifies me.

Len: I'm not sure why, but I always connect the word "notify" with
"eviction".

>We finish our meal and as Subaru goes to pay the bill, I go outside. That's 
>when I spot Fuuma.

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) You didn't even say goodbye! WAAAHHHHHHHH! *sniffle*
Seth: Kamui, Mai-Yu, not Usagi.
Mai-Yu: Same difference.

>I run over to him calling his name, but he ignores me. So I grab his arm.

All: Uh-oh.
Mai-Yu: I told you it didn't bode well, but did you listen to me?
Nooooooo...

>As soon as I grab his arm Fuuma purrs in my ear "Hello Kamui".

Len: Here, kitty kitty.
Madison: Kuroneko-sama!

>I stare at him in shock, but that doesn't last for long. I let go of his 
>arm and as I start to move back Fuuma knocks me onto the ground and as he's 
>about to kick me Subaru intervenes.

Seth/Len/Mai-Yu: AHHHHHH!!! We told you so!
Madison: AHHHHHH!!! You told me so!

>Subaru helps me up and I "hide" behind him.

Mai-Yu: I would, too! That's Dark Kamui!
All: AAAAHHHHHHHHH!

>"Fuuma," Subaru growls
>
>"Sumeragi-san," Fuuma replies coolly

Seth: Yep, that's him, alright.
Madison: I concede.

>"What on earth is your problem?" Subaru asks

All:(Fuuma) Kamui is my...

>"Well since you're so into playing psychiatrist why don't you tell me," 
>Fuuma answers back

Len: Darn, we've already used that joke!

>I move from my spot behind Subaru intent on hugging Fuuma. From my
perspective it should calm him down,

[Long pause]
All: *break up laughing*
Mai-Yu: *singing* All you need is love, love...

>                                    but Subaru stops me by pulling me
>back behind him in a rather protective manner.

Seth: Well, I think we can all see who has the better judgement of
this dynamic duo...

>With that Fuuma gives me a wink and departs. I'm left confused and

Madison:(Kamui) ...very, very creeped out.

>Subaru is extremely mad. For as long as I've known him, I've never seen him 
>so mad.

Len:(Kamui) Except for that one time, when...but that's not important
right now.

>                 There must be something going on that I don't know about. 
>This is not good.

Mai-Yu: Ya think?!

>Subaru turns to me and asks, "Are you alright?"

Madison: That brings back memories...

>I nod my head and say, "Yeah, you?"

Seth:(Subaru) Hey, I'm not the one who just got knocked around.

>Subaru tells me that he is and quickly glances at his watch. Time has once 
>again gone by too fast since its time to go back to school.

Mai-Yu: To tell the truth, I'm actually starting to miss it...

>We swiftly leave and get back to school on time.

Len: Hey, that's twice in a row!
Madison: His best record yet!

>As Subaru goes to his class, I go to mine. However, something is different 
>this time around.

All: Uh-oh.
Len: Why do I have this sudden felling of imminent doom?

>Fuuma is here sitting in his seat, smiling at me.

Len: Ah. That's explains it.

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

Madison: Goodness! I've never seen black snowflakes before!
Seth: I stand corrected.

>Disclaimer: All non -Clamp characters in this chapter belong to Ap-Chan,

All: Eh?
Seth: She can't be talking about... us, can she?
Len:(Lone Star) Pray to God.
All:(Barf) Praying to God.

>         so please don't steal them or I will be forced to send my Angry 
>Chicken after you.

Mai-Yu: FEAR THE ANGRY CHICKEN!!!

>A/N: Yet again I'm sorry for taking so long for updating, but my computer 
>crashed and I lost everything. My computer is evil and

Madison: So we heard.
Len: Aren't they all?

>really hates me, oh well. Thank you for all the reviews they mean a lot to 
>me! Thanks.

Mai-Yu: We love you, too.

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

Seth: *sings* Walking in a winter wonderland...

>Throughout the rest of class I've tried my hardest to ignore Fuuma.

Seth: If I were you I'd be keeping a close eye on him.

>It is pretty difficult when he's spending the whole time looking and
>grinning like a cat at me.

Len: You know you've lost it when you're playing American McGee's
Alice and the Cheshire Cat starts making sense.

>                           It's quite nerving in my opinion. Then again 
>anything he'd do at the moment would most likely make me crawl
>into a hole.

Len: *laughs maniacally*
Seth: Damnit, Len, not like that!!

>            He scares me right now and I don't like it at all.

Seth: Well, if my boyfriend beat the crap out of me, I wouldn't like
it, either.
Mai-Yu: You have a boyfriend.
Seth: Hypothetically.
Mai-Yu: Yeah, sure.

>Now that class is finally over I can go meet Subaru and get away from
>Fuuma as quickly as possible.

Madison: And I can't say I blame him.

>                              I get and get to the door and then I walk 
>into a chest. Go me go with my smartness.

Seth: My sentiments exactly.

>                                               I've just walked into
>the one person that I want to avoid, Fuuma.

Len: And that's how many times, now?

>"Kamui we need to talk," Fuuma tells me.

Mai-Yu: That's one way to put it...

>                                         He sounds calmer than before
>and less, oh how should I put this, sadistic.

Seth:(Kamui) Before, he was almost like an evil version of myself...
Girls: Bum-bum-BUM!

>"Fuuma," is all I get out before being dragged by the arm out of the
>school and into a near by park.

Len: Where Kotori waited on the cross.

>                                It's not like I'm not trying to get out of 
>his grip, it's more like he's too strong for me. / Just great/

Madison: Well, he is kind of huge compared to you, Kamui-kun.

>We sit down beneath a tree that's a little secluded from the rest of
>the people at the park.

Mai-Yu: For good reason, I'm betting.

>                        I turn to look at Fuuma who has his eyes closed. He 
>looks peaceful like that.

Seth:(Kamui) Well, I'd think so if I didn't suspect that he was about
to rape me or something.

>" I want to apologize for before Kamui. I am sorry," Fuuma confesses.

Seth:(Fuuma, melodramatic) I'm so sorry! Can you ever forgive me?
Madison:(Kamui, melodramatic) Oh, Fuuma!
Seth:(Fuuma) Oh, Kamui!
Madison:(Kamui) Oh, Fuuma!
Seth:(Fuuma) Oh, Kamui!
Both: *glomp*
Mai-Yu: Whoah! Slow down there, you two!
Madison: What? Oh! *quickly moves back to her seat*
Seth: Sorry, got carried away.
Len: We saw.

>I just simply nod at Fuuma as I wrap my arms around him and he puts his 
>head on my shoulder.

Madison: Awwwwww...
Len: WAFFy...

>                         We stay in this position for what seems like

Girls: *sigh* Hours...
Seth: Good Lord...

>minutes but must have been only seconds before we are disturbed.... By 
>someone calling my name.

Seth:(Seifer) Hey! Chicken-wuss!

>"Kamuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii," Subaru yells.

All: Whoah!
Madison: Speed is bad for you, Subaru-kun.

>He spots us and runs over. It takes him a couple seconds to get his breath 
>back.

Seth:(Newscaster) In a shocking turn of events, the body of Sumeragi
Subaru, head of the famed Sumeragi clan, was found asphyxiated to
death late yesterday afternoon...

>"Hi," I measly squeak out as Fuuma and I pull apart.

Len: I don't know. I can't say I ever thought of measely as an
adjective.

>"What happened? You were supposed to meet why," he looks at Fuuma, " Fuuma"

Mai-Yu:(Subaru, Bond villain) We meet again, Mr. Monou.

>A few seconds go by in an awkward silence before I speak.

Seth:(Kamui) *cough* Uh, guys? Could you get the face-off over with
quickly? I need to go to the bathroom.

>"Subaru, you see I needed to talk to Fuuma about before and I lost track of 
>time and I'm sorry," I wail out.

Madison: Poor Kamui. He seems to have turned into a stereotypical
schoolgirl.
Len: You just now noticed that?

>Subaru chuckles and accepts my apologies. Fuuma sits there glaring daggers 
>at Subaru.

Seth: Impaling him, and thus ending the fic. Let's go!
Mai-Yu: I'm surprised it took you this long to get dark.

>Before anyone of us can say anything we are yet again interrupted by
>a name being called, but this time it isn't mine.

Len: Wait a minute? We have all the main characters here- who's this?
Seth: We're about to find out...

>"Sumeragi-san, Sumeragi-san," yell Applegate Seth and Kyosetsu Madison who 
>are classmates of ours.

Seth/Madison: *mouths hang open* ...
Mai-Yu: What?! You underlings get a cameo and the great Mai-Yu Han,
destroying of worlds doesn't?!

>The two get to us and hand Subaru a notebook.

Seth:(himself) *snicker* Nice illustrations. I wouldn't show this to
your buddy, though.

>"You dropped it on the ground," explains Madison. Seth nods at this

Madison: While didn't I smile in my patently sweet manner?
Seth: I'm...not sure.

>and looks back and forth between Fuuma and Subaru.

Seth:(himself) Ah. Now I see. Well, we better go, Madison!
Madison:(herself) But...what's going on?
Len: That's what would have happened if they were in character. Here's
what really occured...

>"Did we interrupt something," Seth asks slyly.
>
>We say no and Seth just shrugs.
>
>"We must be going, Ja," Madison says.
>
>"Yeah, Ja Ne," adds Seth ad they walk off whispering to each other and 
>snickering.

Len: ...there you have it.
Madison: *surges up from her chair, glowing golden, and huge white,
feathered wings erupt from her back* How could you! Madison is nice,
and sweet, and innocent of the way the world works! Madison would have
gathered nothing from that exchange if she hadn't seen the entire rest
of the fic first! Nothing, do you hear me!? She is most certainly not
the sort of girl who whispers and snickers behind people's backs! If
she was going to say anything, it would have been to innocently ask
what was going on!!! The only time I ever act mean or rant about
anything is when I'm in my Metatron persona, like now! Innuendo and
connotations mean nothing to Madison Kyosetsu! I may know what's going
on, but she does not! And trust me, Lianne, you would have known if I
was myself right then. *sits down, wings retract, glow fades*
The Rest: ...
Len: ...Nice rant. I'd give it an eight.
Madison: *blinks at her* What rant?
Len: The rant you just made.
Madison: What do you mean? I didn't rant.
Len: But! But!
Mai-Yu: Len, she really doesn't remember.
Len: How do you know?
Mai-Yu: Well, I didn't become an Overlord through physical force, I'll
tell you that much. It's easy to take over when you can read people's
minds.
Len: ...Ah.

>Now back to our uncomfortable situation. / I should just lock them up
>in a room, nah/

Seth: Besides, it's far too late for that.

>"Subaru, as I was about to tell you before Fuuma apologized so you don't 
>need to be mad anymore," I reinsure him.

Mai-Yu: And more insurance.

>"Kamui, just because he apologized doesn't mean it won't happen again," 
>Subaru informs me.

Seth: What? Fuuma's foray into Dark Kamui land, or Madison/Metatron's
frightening characterization?
Madison: Who's Metatron?
The Rest: ...
Mai-Yu: We'll tell you later.

>"Wha-"

Seth: Buh-
Len: Geh-
Mai-Yu: Duh-
Madison: Flibbertygibbets.
The Rest: What?
Madison: *looks sheepish* Sorry. It just came out.

>"Enough!" Fuuma yells. He stands up and looks straight at Subaru.

Len: *singing* I see right through you...

>" I'm going to explain it to him so just back off," Fuuma practically
>growls.

Seth: So he only sort-of growls?

>"He doesn't need you to explain anything. Kamui's a smart one he probably 
>figured it out by now," Subaru retorts.

Mai-Yu: Oh, like Madison's evil twin, there?

>"What the hell is going on?" I demand

Len: Well, apparently he hasn't, Subby.

>They both stop and look at me. I guess they aren't used to me raising
>my voice like that.

Seth: Well, we aren't used to Mads being a catty bitch, either, but go
figure.
Madison: What did you just call me?! Seth-san!
Seth: I meant you in the fic, not you in the Theatre.
Madison: Oh, okay.

>"Kamui," in union they say.

Len: Hallelujah, my prayers have finally been answered!

>"Don't Kamui me! Please just tell me what's going on," I say and tug
>on Subaru's shirt as I say so.

Mai-Yu:(Kamui, whiny) Subaruuuuuuu...

>For a brief moment Fuuma looked hurt by my movement, but now he just
>looks mad.

Seth: How very unusual.

>" Fuuma, should you or I?" Subaru asks almost politely.

Seth: Well, at least he isn't obsessively polite to enemies and
strangers like someone we know.
Len: Back off, bubby. If I can't touch the Fourth Wall, no one can.

>"I should, it is about me after all," Fuuma answers.

Mai-Yu:(Subaru, thinking) Everything's about Fuuma! Fuuma, Fuuma,
Fuuma!

>"All right," Subaru replies.

Madison: *singing* Everything, everything will be all right!

>I stand still ready to listen.

Seth:(Kamui) Awaiting orders, sir.

>" I have this condition," Fuuma begins " it makes me more aggressive
>and it gives me blackouts without my pills."

Len: It's called "Multiple Personality Disorder". Madison seems to
have a good case of it going.
Madison: Okay, you guys have got to tell me what this is all about.

>Silence.

Seth: Boredom.
Len: Apathy.
Mai-Yu: Megalomaniacy.
Madison: *yawn* Sleepiness.

>"Go on" I say as I begin to get dizzy. I clutch my head into my hand
>and I kneel over.

Seth:(Kamui) I knew that potato salad smelled funny. Ugh.

>Subaru and Fuuma both rush over to me.

Seth:(Fuuma) Back off, bub, he's mine!
Mai-Yu:(Subaru) Yours! I'll show you what's yours, bastard!
Madison:(Kamui) Hey, guys? Guys? Little help ever here...

>Suddenly my head stops hurting, but now I'm seeing things. Loads and
>loads of Sakura petals and we aren't under a Sakura tree.

All: Uh-oh.

>Subaru and Fuuma grow stiff

Len: *opens mouth*
Seth: One word and I will pull a Seishirou on you.
Len: *snaps mouth closed*

>                             as they notice the petals too. I guess I'm not 
>seeing things. Anyways back to this.

Mai-Yu:(Kamui) But I digress.

>As I stand up I notice a figure walking through the petals to us. Fuuma and 
>Subaru both stand in front of me as the figure approaches us.

>It's a boy who looks our age with black hair and honey coloured eyes.

Seth: I wonder if he and Madison are related? After all it's a very
unusual eye colour.
Madison: We're from two entirely different universes, Seth. While it
may be possible, I doubt it. Besides, I'm blonde.
Seth: Point.

>He grins as he finally gets to us and looks at me.

Len:(stranger) Hey, he's *way* cuter than Subaru!

>Subaru sees this and glares, Fuuma scowls and the stranger blinks.

Mai-Yu:(Ryoga as stranger) Which way is the Tendo Dojo?

>"Hello Subaru-kun, Fuuma," the stranger says.

All: Hi, Dr. Sakurazuka!

>"Hello Sakurazuka-san," Subaru replies.

Len: What, no "Seishirou-san"?
Seth: Well, Hokuto's alive. You never know what else could be
different between the Dynamic Duo.

>Fuuma says nothing.

Mai-Yu: Good idea, since he should not, techinically, know Seishirou.

>"What do you want?" Subaru questions.

Len: Since I don't want a fist through my chest, I won't say what I'm
thinking.
Seth: Good move.

>"I can't come and so hello?" he smugly retorts.

All: NO.

>"Answer him," Fuuma finally says.

Seth: Or don't. Whatever.
Madison: you know, I could ask you if you were related to Squall, at
this point.
Seth: How about not?

>"If you must know I'm here to finish a job." He replies.

All: What job?
Seth: This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with Tokiko, would
it?

>For some reason that makes me shudder and he eyes me again.

Len: I'm sure we can all guess why.

>All of a sudden more Sakura petals appear and I loose sight of Subaru
>and Fuuma.

Madison:(Warner Brothers) Goodbye, Nurse!

>            I can hear them call out to me, but as I try to reply nothing 
>comes out.

Seth: *mouths rapidly and enthusiatically*
Mai-Yu: Whoah! Am I going to have to wash your mouth out with soap,
young man?

>I feel something move from beneath and I scream. I

Len:(Kamui) ...fail to finish my sentence.
Mai-Yu: Were you an English major in a past life or something?

>I fall hard to the ground and I get gash on the right side of my forehead.

Madison: Ouch!
Len: Ooo! Does anyone get a matching one?
Seth: Okay, I'm calling quota on Final Fantasy VIII jokes.
Girls: Awwwww...

>          The blood from it trickles down over my eye and it's the last 
>thing I see before going unconscious.

Len: Which is not surprising, having been knocked in the head, and
all.

>The last thing I hear is laughing and Fuuma screaming for me.

Seth:(Seishirou/Kefka) Uwee hee hee hee...
Mai-Yu: How do you do those impressions?

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

Madison: Pretty stars! Well, let's go!

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

[They all walk into the lobby, and see that Kaysa is back in her
normal lab coat.]

Mai-Yu: How are the dance lessons going, Kaysa?
Kaysa: I don't know what-
Mayuko: I can't teach her a thing. She has two left feet, and she's
clumsy as an ox. What am I supposed to do? I'm just an ice sprite for
God's sake.
Seth: Is that what you are? We were wondering about that.
Mayuko: You could've just asked your Angel friend there. I'm sure she
could have told you.
Seth: Yes, we were going to talk to her about that...
Madison: What?
Mayuko: Before you lot get too far, how about reviews?
Seth: Well, Lianne-san is up to her usual quality. That's all I will
say.
Mai-Yu: Interesting plot development. I didn't see the whole "Kamui
gets kidnapped by Seishirou" bit coming.
Len: *sigh* I'm just confused. What happened to Tokiko?
Madison: *glows golden again, and her eyes narrow* We have failed You,
God, and I humbly request that you expediate our extinction. *goes
back to normal* I liked it, as usual. Interesting plot twist. *smiles*
Seth: Yes, about this...
Madison: What?
Seth: Would you be so kind as to press the button, Mayuko-san?
Mayuko: Whatever.

[End.]
