Eavesdropping...

Genbu strolled leisurely along the hall, not in a great hurry. Even if he was in a great hurry, he wouldn't move quickly anyway. He would just leave very early to get there in time. Ho hum. It was a good life.

He was just toodling along the temples. Taiitsukun was snoring loudly. Nyan Nyan was giggling and Genbu could see her move quickly. Taiitsukun's snoring became muffled then she awoke with a squawk. The last Genbu saw of Nyan Nyan was a green-tipped streak moving off quickly in the distance, followed by a very angry prune, spluttering violently and spitting out watermelon seeds all over the place. Genbu shook his head and idly kept moving onwards. Where had that damn snake got to?

He peered his head into Byakko's room. Byakko wasn't there, in his place was a sign saying "Out for coffee, back in 5 millennia". Genbu shook his head and prayed to himself that coffee would be discovered quickly because otherwise Byakko would be out for a while and Genbu hated having to answer prayers on his behalf. And where was the snake?!

He walked along then paused outside Suzaku's door. It was closed but there were some rather interesting noises come from inside.

"Chichiri before!"

"Hmm," was the reply from Seiryuu. Genbu peered through the keyhole. He couldn't see anything much, just the opposite wall.

"Suboshi geefaw then!" he said, triumphantly. What the...?!

"Tama Neko see for! Hah! Tama Neko has got Yui pinned behind Suboshi! Heheheheh!" Suzaku countered. Genbu raised his eyebrow. I suppose young Suboshi is enjoying that greatly, he thought.

"Heheheheh, I didn't know Suboshi was afraid of cats!" giggled Suzaku.

"Be serious, Turkey-boy or I'll eat you for Christmas lunch!" Seiryuu snarled.

"Do we haveChristmas?" Suzaku wondered out loud.

"Shut up! I'm playing you for the snake here!" Seiryuu snapped. Genbu's eyes popped out. They are doing WHAT for my snake?! he thought furiously. He frantically fiddled with the doorknob.

"Nakago captures before," Seiryuu said, sounding angry.

"Tamahome takes Nakago from behind!" Suzaku cheered. "Mate!" Genbu couldn't take any more of this, they were corrupting his poor, innocent snake. He smashed the door open.

"You're good at this..." the snake was hissing. It then looked up, shocked. "G...genbu!"

"What in my name is going on here?!" Taiitsukun barked, appearing from behind Genbu.

"We were just playing chess and Genbu smashed my door down, Mum!" Suzaku whined.

"B...but-" Genbu started.

"Oh shut up!" Taiitsukun snapped, irritably. "I have had quite enough of this, go to your room, Genbu!"

"But Mum....!" he whinged.

"Guess what! I got the coffee machine working again!" Byakko said, appearing happily.


"Fix fix! Heal heal!" Nyan Nyan said cheerfully. Byakko shot her a withering glance.

"Shut up!" he roared. He then looked around. "What happened here?!" he asked, in confusion.

"I think someone just learnt not to eavesdrop!" laughed Seiryuu. Taiitsukun rolled her eyes expressively. Kids!
