Act 2: Zen comes for a visit
"Thankfully it's a Sunday today; we'll be helping Akio to learn the rules of this house hold. And I mean all the rules, am I making myself clear Akira? I can see that you're busy hugging Kappa again." Rikku said as she looked towards the pond where Kappa lived, seeing him and a dirty blonde hair cat eared girl hugging him to death.
"Let me have my Kappa and you can have your cat boy." Akira said as she half glared at Rikku.
"Fine, but Kappa has duties of his own and as do you, so if you don't do them, than no Kappa for a month." Rikku ordered.
"Latter!" Akira whined as she hugged Kappa tighter.
Rikku just stared at them for a few more minutes before turning around and facing Akio.
"You remember Akira, right?" Rikku asked.
"How in the world can anyone forget that perverted cat girl that, if memory serves me right, kept falling for the same trap that you always played on her?" Akio said.
"She still does." Rikku said, loud enough for Akira to overhear.
"I do not!" Akira said as she got out of the pond and walked towards Rikku but was hoisted up again.
"See?" Rikku said as she showed Akio.
"Is she that stupid?" Akio asked, teasingly.
"I can hear you!" Akira yelled.
"Kappa, why don't you come with us to help give Akio a tour of the house?" Rikku said with a fake smile.
"Don't you dare take Kappa away from me!" Akira protested.
But it was too late; Kappa had already gotten out of the pond and followed Rikku and Akio into the house.
"You're all mean!" Akira said as she whined even more.
"So, Akio, where would you like to explore first?" Rikku asked.
"I don't really have a place in mind." Akio said.
"Well, then, why don't we start in the kitchen? I'm hungry anyway." Rikku said as she quickened her pace.
"For some strange reason, every time I came here, you always happen to be hungry." Akio stated.
"It's because Akira always gets on my nerves more whenever you came over." Rikku stated, again.
"And that causes you to grow hungry?" Akio asked.
"For some strange reason yes." Rikku said.
"You never changed did you?" Akio asked.
"What do you mean by that?" Rikku asked.
"You make up the most illogical reasons why you do things." Akio stated.
"It's a habit of mine." Rikku laughed a little while making a cat face.
"You've been hanging around Ryota-neko too much." Akio said.
"Nope, haven't been to his place in awhile so it's all because of Akira again." Rikku said as she went back to her normal expression.
"He must feel lonely without his little kitten." Akio said teasingly.
"Mezumaru missed you too, Akio." Rikku said as she smirked a little.
"I hate you for that." Akio said as she somewhat glared at a cat like Rikku.
"Rikku-sama!" Haruka exclaimed as she ran up towards Rikku and the others.
Rikku merely glared at Haruka as she came up to them.
"What is it, Haruka?" Rikku asked, annoyed that her getting food will be delayed.
"Zen-sama is here to visit you." Haruka said.
"Tell Kejoro to bring a lot of snacks in the family room then." Rikku said with a pout.
"Yes, Rikku-sama." Haruka said as she bowed towards Rikku and left.
"Kappa, you get to come with us too. I don't want to leave you here with Akira running around." Rikku said as she and Akio made their way to the family room where Zen was waiting for them.
