Chapter One
It was cloudy and cold outside. Master Fung said that instead of training the monks should all pack. Every Christmas the monks would go home for one week to celebrate Christmas with their families. All of the monks were in their 'rooms' packing all of the necessaries for their trip.
In Kimiko's room she had two suitcases open. One big and one small. In the small one she put in her toothbrush, toothpaste, hair brush, hair accessories, hair dye, her hair straightener, hair curler (a/n: Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair. Oh we all know she has all that stuff.), nail polish, accessories and other small items. In the big suitcase, she has her clothes and shoes. She closed her small suitcase easily, but had trouble closing the big one.
"Come on!" Kimiko said to herself. "Close already!"
She pressed down on her suitcase but nothing happened.
"Oh come on! Please close!" Kimiko yelled at her suitcase. She tried to close it again, but still, nothing happened. "Okay, I'm not asking! CLOSE!"
"Kimiko, why are you yelling at your suitcase?"
Kimiko turned around and the other three monks were at the door.
"Oh, umm, well," Kimiko started. "It won't close,"
"Kim," Raimundo started, "You're going away for a week, not a month. You don't need all of these clothes,"
"Besides, won't you have more clothes at your house back in Japan?" Clay asked.
"Well, yeah!" Kimiko said. "But these are all my favorite clothes!"
Clay and Rai both sighed.
"What?" Kimiko asked.
"Nothing, nothing," Rai said.
"I don't get it," Omi said.
Just then, Master Fung walked over to them.
"Young monks, since you are all done packing, you can help clean up the temple," Master Fung said.
They all groaned.
"Why do we have to clean the temple if we're not even going to be here?" Rai asked.
"I will be here," Master Fung said. "As leader, you should put others first,"
"Yeah, yeah," Rai said.
"The elder monks will take all of your luggage to the main hall," Master Fung said.
All of them would leave tomorrow on Kimiko's dad's plane (her dad would not be on it). Clay would go home back to Texas, then Rai would go back to Brazil and them Kimiko and Omi would go to Japan. Since Omi is an orphan, he could go celebrate Christmas with whoever he wanted to. He didn't really want to go with Clay because his family is all about meat, and Omi is a vegetarian. He also didn't want to go with Raimundo because of all his pranks, so he did not want to deal with his eight brothers and sisters who probably were just like Rai. So his only choice was Kimiko. Her family was very nice to him, and a lot of them were vegetarians. They all cleaned for three the temple for three hours. When they were done, it was about 1:00pm so they all went to the dining hall to eat.
"Oh, Kimiko, I cannot wait to see your family again!" Omi said sitting down at the table.
"Yeah, they love you," Kimiko said sitting down across from Omi.
"Although, I could do without seeing your cousin Tatsuo," Omi said.
Raimundo and Clay finished serving the food and sat down at the table. Clay sat next to Omi and Rai sat next to Kim.
"What did her cousin do to you?" Rai asked.
"Tatsuo thought that Omi's head was a giant melon, so he bit it," Kimiko said trying to contain her laughter.
Although, Clay and Rai couldn't contain their laughter.
"He thought your head was a melon?" Clay asked. "That's funnier then a turkey cooking itself on Thanksgiving Day!" (a/n: Haha, beware of my awesome metaphors :p)
"But that's not funny," Rai said. "Anyway Omi, you got it off easy. If you had come to my place, all of my siblings would be biting your head!"
Kimiko laughed a little. "I can imagine that," she said.
"Yeah, eight people trying to eat your head," Rai said. "Well, more like five actually, but still, people biting Omi's head is always funny to picture!"
"It is not funny. It is most painful," Omi said.
Kimiko looked out the window to her left and sighed at the clouds.
"Think it might snow?" Kimiko asked.
"Maybe a little. I hear tomorrow should be about 25 degrees F," Clay asked.
"I hope not," Rai said. "Then the Fung mister will make me move the stuff outside, inside. And only me because I'm the leader now. He says it'll teach me discipline or something,"
"Oh the pains of being leader," Omi started. "Maybe you are not cut out for the position,"
"You know, I can get all of my siblings over here to purposely try to eat your head Omi," Rai threatened.
"No thank you," Omi said.
