AN: Random story for the New Year! This kind of came out of no where since I hadn't really planned to do any kind of writing, but with my car dead I'm stranded at home for New Years so what better way to spend it than writing something? Enjoy and here's to hoping 2012 turns out to be full of surprises.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything!

The Hangover

A door slammed shut. The noise echoed through the room causing a particular blonde who was sprawled out on the floor; face down, to wake up.

"Ugh…Where am I?"

Burgundy eyes blinked rapidly trying to get her eyes to focus on something, anything in the room. Her body, however, was having a field day with her senses. Her head throbbed making everything in the room spin. Her throat was dryer than she remembered and for whatever reason, her back hurt. Fate Testarossa Harlaown felt the sudden urge to puke. Running blindly down a hallway, she ran to what she hoped was the bathroom. Throwing open the door, she barely made it to the sink before spilling her guts out. She would have continued her upheaval of colorful liquid when a growl brought her body functions to a screeching halt. Fate gripped the sink as she turned slowly towards the source of the noise. There, sitting in the tub was a tiger. A real, orange black-stripped tiger was lounging in the tub like it was any just your average day in…wherever Fate happened to be.

The blonde girl reacted like any normal person would. She quickly ran out of the bathroom and slammed the door shut with all the force she could muster. Not that it would make a difference if the tiger decided it wanted to break down the door. She only hoped that it would find its position in the tub too comfortable to move. Fate moved away from the door and went in search of some clue as to where she was. Upon reaching what she assumed was the living room area she stopped and looked around. To put it bluntly, it was trashed.

Furniture was overturned and in disarray, bottles and cans of beer and liquor were strewn across the room. Some were even stacked in various forms of pyramids. It looked like a tornado hit the place. Fate rubbed her head. The headache was returning. Why couldn't she remember anything from the night before?

"What the hell happened?"

"Ugh…"

A mumbling brunette soon rose from behind a couch. Her blue eyes scanned the room before settling on Fate. Seeing the other girl brought back certain memories.

"That's right! We're in Vegas for Signum's Bachelorette party!"

"What happened?" the brunette groggily asked.

"Right, Hayate came with us."

Hayate Yagami was the sister of Signum's fiancé. Shamal had insisted that the girls take her sister on the trip with them. Hayate was an eccentric girl to say the least. They'd had reservations at first but Signum had wanted to make her fiancé happy, therefore they'd been forced to take the girl with them. It turned out Hayate was actually a pretty cool and they had a lot in common. Fate sighed. She wished she could answer the girl's question but she was having trouble recalling things.

"I have no idea. I can't remember anything from last night. What about you?"

"Not much. I remember going up to the roof and taking a shot. Everything's kind of fuzzy after that."

Fate walked over to the giant window and looked out on the town. Certain memories began to flood back. She remembered them arriving the day before. She, Signum, Hayate, and Teana…

"Ah! Where's Tea?"

"Oh…my head…"

As if to answer her question, a red head came tumbling out of a bedroom from another part of the hotel room.

"There she is!" Hayate said a little too loudly. The three girls winced. Hayate acknowledged that yelling was probably not doing any favors for their hangovers.

"Keep it down will you?" Tea grumbled.

"Ugh, I need to use the bathroom." Hayate got up and was walking towards her destination when Fate grabbed her by her arm and pulled her back.

"You don't want to go in there."

"Why?"

"There's a tiger there."

"Say what?"

"I know. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself."

"B-But how did one get in there?" Tea asked stunned. Just what had they done the night before?

"I gotta see this." Hayate was followed by Tea. Their curiosity got the better of them. It's not that they didn't believe the blonde but some things you just had to see for yourself. The two poked their head into the bathroom and were greeted by the sight of a roaring tiger. The door was quickly slammed before it decided that the two girls looked good enough to eat.

"Believe me now?"

"Yeah, but I'm still wondering how it got in there." Tea shook her head in disbelief.

"Anyone seen Signum?" Fate asked.

"She's probably still sleep in one of the room." Hayate answered casually. "I mean, from the look of this place, we must've had a wild night."

"You're probably right. I'm going to go wake her up. We need to be heading out soon."

Hayate nodded and looked around for something to eat. Lucky for her, they seemed to have ordered pizza the night before. She opened it and found that it was rather squished but still edible.

"Eww, how can you eat that?"

"Hey it's still in the box. It's fine.~"

"I still wouldn't eat it. It looks like someone stepped on the box several times."

The brunette was about to respond when Fate suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Signum's not here!"

"What? No way. She has to be here somewhere." Hayate said unconcerned.

"I just checked every room and she's not here!"

Tea stood up and placed her hands on the panicking blonde's shoulders.

"Breath Fate, I'm sure she's around here somewhere. Let's call her phone and find out where she went."

Fate took a deep breath and nodded. She pulled out her phone and dialed her best friends number. Much to their surprise, they heard Signum's phone ringing from somewhere in the room. The three looked around, throwing random pillows and other trash out of their way. Finally, Tea picked up the phone and turned it off.

"Well there goes that brilliant plan." Fate groaned. "Guys, what if something happened to her? We can't even remember what happened last night!"

"Let's not panic." Tea jumped in. "We should go down to breakfast. Maybe she's already down there? I mean she's always been an early riser. She probably got up before us and decided to get something to eat."

"Yeah!" Hayate added. "She probably lost her phone last night and didn't bother to find it. Let's get down there and eat with the soon to be Mrs. Yagami!"

"I didn't know she was taking Shamal's last name." Fate commented.

The three girls were about to leave the room discussing the news of Signum's decision to take her fiancé's last name when a cry caught their attention. Freezing in their tracks, they could only look at each other in confusion. They had to be hearing things. Why would there be a baby in their hotel room where they'd clearly had a wild party. The cry came again. Alarmed, they followed the sound of the cry to a closet. Hayate reached out and slowly opened the door. There sat a crying baby. The three looked at each other as if asking what the heck a baby was doing in the closet of their trashed hotel room.

Fate reached out and rocked the crying bundle in her arms. The crying subsided. Heterochromatic eyes looked up at Fate and cooed happily at the blonde.

"Good work Fate!" Hayate slapped Fate's back.

The blonde hissed in pain. She'd forgotten about her aching back until that moment.

"Oww, Hayate!"

"Sorry! I didn't know you hurt yourself."

"Neither did I. Let's just go down and have breakfast."

Nodding in agreement, the girls plus their newest addition made their way to the elevator. Conveniently, they'd found a baby backpack like carrier. Since the baby seemed to like Fate so much, she got the honor of carrying her around. Fate didn't mind since the kid seemed to be enjoying herself. It was still a mystery how she ended up with them but they decided to worry about one thing at a time. Their main concern was finding Signum. They just hoped she was okay. With the way they were being constantly surprised by what they found in their hotel room, they were growing slightly concerned about the pink haired woman. They were sure Shamal would kill them all if they returned home without her fiancé.

AN: It's short, I know, but I pretty much wrote this before I needed to go to bed. Again, I did not have this planned at all and have no idea where it's going (then again since it's based on the movie by the same name it's not hard to guess). We'll see I guess. Review if you enjoyed.
