Of Bunnies and Burritos





Ch. 1 A Phone Call



"Come on, Natsuki. Pick up the stupid phone! NOW!" A voice screamed over the answering machine.

"Around the world I fly. Around the world I'll search for you. Never giving up til, I find you. My precious BURRITO!" Sings a girl, wispily walking through the doorway of her office. Heading towards the phone, she finally picks it up to answer the perturbed voice's call. "Hey Rika-san. Do you need something?"

"Of course I need something! Why else would I have called?" demanded Rika sounding more and more annoyed by the minute.

"Just to talk to me? Heh...heh" Natsuki-san innocently replied.

"...well, yeah...I guess." Rika says, suddenly losing her steam. Realizing this is not the reason of her call, Rika asks "Anyway, remember the project I've been working on? Its finished."

"Really!?! That awesome! YEAH! Now that you fixed the microwave we can get burritos! WOO HOO!!!" Natsuki starts to dance and is extremely happy. Noticing that the other end of the phone has gone dead she asks "Rika? You still there?"

"Yeah, Natsuki I'm still here. But..ah....the microwave...um..wasn't my finished project..um sorry."

The sudden and abrupt silence on the other end told Rika that Natsuki was definitely not okay, so she begain to brace herself for the water works.

"But..but..What do you mean? The microwave is fixed right?" At this point Natsuki was at the brink of tears. "You said . . . you . . . I WANT BURRITOS! WAAAAHHH". Now Natsuki burst into tears and a distressed Rika did everything she could think of to comfort her.

"It's okay Natsuki, I'll fix that next. It's okay."

"WAAH BURRITOS!!"

"Maybe we can go out to Taco Bell and get some GRANDE burritos. Does that sound good?"

"I (hic) want (hic) bur..burr..burritos NOW!! WAAAAHHHH"

Renown as she was for her patience, this was more then Rika could stand and with a sharp intake of breath she barked "SHUT UP NOW OR I'LL KICK YOUR BUTT!!!"

Instantly perking up at this Natsuki says "We're going to fight?" She is astoundingly eager for this "Ok! When and where! Anytime any place I'll beat you down! WooHoo!! FIGHT, FIGHT,FIGHT!!"

"You complete MORON! First of all that was an expression and second of all YOU WERE CRYING OVER BURRITOS!"

"Yeah well . . . then I remember that it was my turn to pick where we were going for dinner and it was okay!"

Unfazed, and quite use to, her friends mood swings, Rika continues with her reason for calling. "Hm...what if we went to Kyrnn for dinner?"

"What? Is Krynn a new restaurant? Where is it?". Undeniably she was a glutton.

"...." Amazed at how dense she could really be, Rika just shakes she head and awaits an awswer.

"OH MY GOSH!!!! You finished that project?! Yeah awesome! Okay we can go there but you have to buy me some Silvistine wine when we get there!" Once again she starts to dance.

"Ok, OK OKAY now . . . calm down . . . Oh g's why do I even try" Rika says, rolling her eyes. She was trying extremely hard to calm her friend but obviously she was still in La-La Land.

"La la la. Yipee! Hooray Hooray!

"Shut up Baka! Or I won't show you the project."

"Okay. I'm coming over."

"Good. Now, come fast. We have a lot of planning to do before to can go."

"All right! I'm on my way!" With that the conversation ended, and soon Natsuki starts her song again. "Not able to find you, not able to take the fight. I'll come get you soon, so please wait. My sweet Burritos!!!"

And so with her song ended Natsuki leaves the office.....
