"Is this… really right?" Kohaku Neko was in shock, staring at the completed 'translation' over Yuki's shoulder.
"This is the only thing that makes sense…" Yuki muttered. "Unless, of course, you think that POST Qwildopamd is right…"
Kohaku sighed deeply. After four weeks, this had been the only thing that wasn't nonsense that they had gotten. "Remember, girlfriends are worth it…" he muttered to himself.
"Too true!" Yuki said happily. "But what IS all this stuff?" He glanced down the schedule. "I think we've gotta look some of this up. I swear, he's making some of this up… no one could possibly be this insanely busy!" He pointed out certain aspects of the schedule. "Hey, Sano, could you look up this Kurama thing? And, Kohaku, you find out what the DARK Tournament is…"
"And what are you doing?" Kohaku asked drily.
"Other than supervising?" Yuki replied, in an all-too-peppy voice for a guy. "Well, I was going to look up Demon World, but I already know what it is!"
"You do?"
"Of course! It's a new version of Dungeons and Dragons… it just came out! Funny, I would have never guessed Suichi would be one to play it… he seems way too down-to-earth. It's really great, though!"
"Right…" Kohaku had tuned the team leader out, and was rapidly typing away on his laptop. "Well… I've got two results. First hit's for some Academic Tournament in Luxemburg… the 'Decathalon of Academic and Rudimentary Knowledge." He clicked on the link, and a professional-looking website sprang up. "Huh, this looks kind of fun… Anyways, the other hit is for some illegal martial arts tournament. Yeah, I think that one's it…" he chuckled, imagining Suichi in a martial arts tournament. He wouldn't last a minute.
"No! The second hit, that's the one!" Sano exclaimed. "Look! Kurama is the name of some notorious fox thief, Yoko Kurama, who controls plants! Suichi's really a demon in disguise as a human!" He was gesturing towards his own laptop, which showed the picture of a man in all-white clothes, with fox ears and a long white tail. "They even look alike!"
"Er… yeah. Of course, Sano…" Kohaku said, exchanging slightly scared glances with Yuki. "Honestly, if it wasn't for the fact that he's one of the few at our school with some semblance of intelligence… I'd lock him up in an asylum in a minute." Yuki nodded fervently.
Once Yuki had gotten over the rather amusing mental picture of 'Suichi the Demon,' he continued to flip through their translation of Suichi's planner, finding the translation of what seemed to be a 'note' group of flowers. "What's this… 'walking with Hiei, mistaken for…" he gaped at the next few words, "mother and child?'"
"Isn't that the guy he was bailing out of jail?" Kohaku mused, a slightly disturbed look on his face. Yeah, Suichi DOES look like a girl, but 'mother and child'? That was taking it a bit too far.
"Of course!" Sano shouted. Yuki and Kohaku exchanged wary glances as the other boy continued, "They were probably partners! They're both demons, and they were stealing stuff, and…"
"Shut it, Sano, will you? You're kinda scaring me…" Kohaku said bluntly, before turning to Yuki. "There must be some REASONABLE" he stressed 'reasonable' as Sano opened his mouth, "explanation for this. We'll just ask Suichi about it tomorrow…"
