xL33TxMasterx(Person Kukki is in real life): I'm in the honors classes!!!!
Rayne-kun: yup. But I didn't mean to say that all blondes are ditzes. i don't like to stereotype. it just so happens, that Kukki is both blonde and a ditz.
xL33TxMasterx: I agree, and I am fully aware of my ditzness.

blaze: well, actually, you update these chapter's REALLY ReALLY FAST, so they've only been waiting a couple of days.
xL33TxMasterx: Well, you had people giving you ideas for the humor in this story, so it does go faster.
Rayne-kun: I would just like people to know I DO write my fics. I don't' have people write them for me. I just get writer's block, so people give me ideas. Kukki's sayings belong to xL33TxMasterx cause she is Kukki, and some ideas come from Coco-sama, and Dragonglow, but this is MY fic. I write it. Me. Myself I.
blaze: we get the picture.
Rayne-kun: AND NOW, CHAPTER 4!!!!!!!!!!!
Chapter 4:
"You liiiiiiiike him! Just admit it! You're so impossible!" Kukki taunted.
"Pointy-hair likes the Ainu (A/N I guess she could tell he was Ainu from the name or something.)!!" Kyandi-chan jeered.
They sang in unison, "Renny and Horo sitting in a tree-"
Horohoro was the reddest red in the history of all things that are red in this world. There is no proper way to describe it. He was redder than a tomato. He was redder than a fire truck. He was even redder than....a brick! (A/N Audience: but is it a new brick, or an old dying brick? 'cause old bricks aren't that red... Rayne-kun: -glares- quiet you.) 'If only that would be true,' he thought.' But Ren'll never like me that way...' (A/N can he really be that stupid??? ren just called him "his" horo and he STILL doesn't get that Ren likes him back.... -mutters- he really is a baka....)
"K-I-S-S-I-N-G!!!!!!" They cackled together.
Ren however, in contrast to Horohoro, was as white as snow. No, I DO NOT mean the snow in New York City. I mean the white fluffy snow in the mountains. And NO, I an NOT saying Ren's face is fluffy. Bakas.....
Anyway, this sing was humiliating him beyond any past humiliation. And a Tao certainly couldn't endure that without a fight.
"I DO NOT LIKE HOROHORO!!!" he shouted, once again ready to strike with his Chinese spear.
Kukki smirked. "Oh really? What was that you said. 'Your' Horo, was it? How can you possibly say you don't like him after that? And also, you were sooo jealous when I held 'Your' Horo's hand....."
"Look. I was just.... um..... worried! Yeah, a member of my team shouldn't be associating with he likes of people like you! What if you're some evil shaman whose out to destroy him? He can't rush into a relationship like that!" Ren said, proud of his quick thinking.
"Worried, eh? Ah you hear that, Horo? He was worried abut you.... Even if it was a cover-up excuse.... You pick, Horo. Either he owns you, or he was worried about you. Either way, he's madly in love with you." Kukki said still smirking.
Horo said nothing. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he might say something he would later regret, so for once in his life, he was silent.
"I. Do. Not. Like. Horohoro!!!!!!!!" He yelled, raising the kwan-dao above his head, bring the flat side sharply down on Kukki's temple.
She stood, dazed for a few seconds. "You, she started shakily, " better not... have ruined my hair......" and with that, she fainted.
Ren and Horo stood for a few moments, unsure of what to do.
Finally, Ren said, "C'mon, there's a forest back there.. no one should be around there.... let's drag her over there...." Horohoro silently agreed. They both grabbed an arm and dragged her across the ground, earning several weird looks from passersby. Horohoro winced every time she was dragged across a rock, hoping she wouldn't feel the pain later on when she woke up, and decided to take it out on him and Ren.
Kyandi-chan followed silently behind. The two boys didn't seem to remember her. She felt so neglected. Poor, poor Kyandi-chan.... Oh well. Her master,s he thought, was a very good actress. These boys had no idea that she was just pretending to have fainted to give them a "private" moment together that she could watch.
Ren and Horo walked a little ways into the forest, then leaned her against a tree, so when she did wake up, she wouldn't murder them for lying her sprawled across the ground.
Ren wanted to just leave her there, but Horohoro said it was they're fault, so they should at least wait until she woke up. Ren hesitantly agreed, and they both sat at the base of trees, waiting for her to awaken.
Horohoro couldn't keep it in any longer. "Ren. Why did you call me 'Your' Horo?"
Ren glared. "I a;ready told you. You shouldn't being going off with shamans you barely know. They could kill you."
"Ren..... The are you worried about me?"
"NO! I just can't have one of my team members die! that's all..." Ren almost shouted, annoyed.
"Oh.... Ren?"
"Hmm?"
"Is it ok.... if I sit next to you?" Horo asked, dreading the answer.
But the answer was not what he expected. ".....Whatever."
Wide-eyed, and almost not daring to believe that Ren would let him do that, he silently edged closer until he was right next to him.
"I'm sorry," Horo said abruptly after a few seconds, "that I'm such an idiot all the time... I'm sorry.. that I'm always annoying you....."
"It's me who should be sorry.... I'm the one always yelling at you... I don't mean it.... I just.. can't control myself..." Ren said, not really thinking about what he was saying.
It was then that Horohoro decided if this was a dream, he should at least try to make the best of it. He slowly placed his hand on top of Ren's, entwining their fingers together.
Ren didn't pull away, but instead rested his head on Horo's shoulder, closing his eyes. Horo then placed his head on top of Ren's, and they sat like that for a while.
Kukki meanwhile, had one eye cracked open just enough to watch this whole scene take place. Before she could stop herself, a small "awww" escape her lips.
The two boys immediately snapped up from their position and stared at her wide-eyed.
"Weren't you passed out?" Horo asked.
"She was faking it. You little sneak. How could you just pretend like that?" Ren said angrily.
Kukki stood up. " I was just trying to give you a private moment together."
"Private!!!?? Hoe can it be PRIVATE with you WATCHING????!!!!" Ren nearly shouted.
"Well, I'm sorry, alright! You love him, and you weren't going to admit it! I was just trying to help you realize it!"
"I DO NOT LOVE HIM! HE MEANS NOTHING TO ME, ALRIGHT? NOTHING!" Ren yelled at Kukki.
Tears appeared in Horo's eyes. "...Nothing?" he said in a small voice.
Ren immediately softened. "Oh no, Horo. I didn't mean-"
But Horo ran from them, going deep into the forest desperately trying not to cry in front of Ren.
Kukki glared at Ren,a nd her eyes were truly filled with rage. "Now, look what you've done you heartless bastard. How could you do that?" And with that, she ran off calling out to Horo, trying to find him.
TBC
Rayne-kun: WAAAAHHHH!!! I Feel so bad doing that!!!!!! Poor Horohoro... and things were getting so cute too!!!! Why'd Ren have to ruin it?!?!?! -bawls-
blaze: only she would cry over her own story.
hazel: -nods-
Rayne-kun: -sniff- Sorry tot hat reviewer who liked the lack of drama.... I just had to put it in there! BLAME THE EVIL MICE OF DEATH!! THEY MADE ME DO IT!!!
blaze and hazel: -sweatdrop- mice?
Rayne-kun: Yes mice. Oh, and everyone? Kukki (the real one) didn't like this chapter. She is scared people won't like her because she ruined the moment.
Kukki: I HAD TWO FANS!!! DON'T LEAVE ME!!!!
Rayne-kun: umm.. yeah. So, she's sorry. Don't leave her! She didnt' mean to aw, it just came out.
Kukki: If i get hate mail, I'll take it out on you! -points at me-
Rayne:-kun: -sweatdrop- k. That was a slight cliffy wasn't it? HA! I promised myself that if I ever wrote a fic, I'd stay away from cliffhangers. Well, it looks as though I lied. So now, I'm gonna post in 3 months, just to annoy you all!
Blaze: expect the next chapter in no more than a week. She can't stay away from writing... Its quite odd
Hazel: You know, it is 11:00 PM here right now, and she still hasn't done her homework. She's been writing this chapter fro quite some time now.
Rayne-kun: THAT'S RIGHT! SO DON'T LET MY SACRIFICE BE IN VAIN!!! REVIEW AND MAKE THE AUTHORESS A HAPPY ONE.
