Hiei looked up at an enormous, yellow bus. It actually looked big to him because he is so tiny.

Hiei, Botan, and the rest of the class where going to the zoo for a field trip. Hiei was the one who decided on this, which made Botan rather nervous.

"Don't do something I wouldn't do," Botan said to Hiei, eyeing him.

Hiei was rather smug about the fact he was leading a pack of idiotic schoolchildren through a public zoo, and no-one can say shit about it.

Hiei tried to get up into the bus, and by try I mean he managed to fail his attempt to get up into the bus three times.

"Can someone give me a hand?" Hiei loathed his tiny stature.

Botan managed to push Hiei up into the bus.

"Ha ha ha! No-one can doubt me!" Hiei said triumphantly. "Now, how to get over the second step?"

……

The bus stopped at the zoo and Hiei jumped out excitingly. He looked unnaturally giddy.

"Isn't it so cool kids!" Hiei sped off into the zoo gates.

"Hiei's quite happy," Botan said. "And quite creepy…"

The last student went off the bus. The students and Botan went into the zoo. They were instantly greeted by the strangest woman.

She had reddish brown hair almost to her shoulder. Her eyes where a deep brown. She was skinny and wore a green and brown uniform with the words "GIVE A FUCKING HOOT! DON'T FUCKING POLLUTE!" Other than the panda ears she wore she looked completely normal. Her nametag said Jonathan.

"Hiya," she said. " I'm Jonathan! I'm a zookeeper."

Surprisingly, Hiei was the first one to ask a question.

"Do you keep zoos?" Hiei stared at Jonathan.

"Kind of…yeah. We keep them…" Jonathan looked at him. "We've got a zoo. A zoo within a zoo. A petting zoo!"

"Wow…" Hiei stared in amazement.

"Well, we have a lot to see so let's get going!" Jonathan turned around and walked down the path. The students followed her.

"What's up with you Hiei?" Botan looked at Hiei with a "you're acting so gay" look.

"I dunno…I think I met her somewhere…hmmm…" Hiei looked retarded, trying to understand the confusion.

…

Jonathan introduced the students to the various lions and tigers and bears…oh my.

"Now this is this is the menacing who-who."

Hiei looked up quickly.

"Just kidding," Jonathan said.

Hiei was really hoping to see one.

"Look over there!" It was Botan. She was pointing into the cage.

In it was a lion and a…

"Oh my god," Hiei said.

A puny blonde boy was in the cage.

"I'll save you!" Hiei leapt up triumphantly. He heroically landed in the cage, flew back to the path with something in his arms. He then landed gracefully on the path.

"Saved him," Hiei said. He then realized that people were running away from him. He also realized that he was carrying a lion.

"Oops. Back you go." He leapt back into the cage and rescued the puny blonde boy. He jumped up to the path again.

Hiei looked up and saw Jonathan staring at him.

"I've never seen so many actions written in so few text," she said.

"Excuse me?" Hiei stared blankly.

Author's Notes: The silly blonde boy returns, heh heh. Part two coming soon!
