Kaonashi &
Chapter Four: Kaonashi & Nightclubs
Masashi and Kaonashi stood there in the kitchen, staring at the giant, teal sticky note on the refrigerator. It stood out from all the other sticky notes, from the color and the bright red pen, which was used to write the contents:
"To Ishi-Kun and Kao-Kun,
Kiki, Koko, Jiji, and me are out with my other pals to see a movie! We didn't bring you guys along because you know how you freak out at chick flicks, huh, Masashi? Jiji came along because he doesn't leave Kiki's side, remember? We'll be back around 10:30. Have fun together, you two!
Love, Fuu"
"Masashi…what does it say?" Kaonashi asked. Masashi shook his head and sighed.
"Dammit, she always leaves when we need her most!" Masashi said through gritted teeth, landing his entire body on the sofa. Kaonashi walked over.
"What's important at the moment?"
"Guitar Hero isn't working! I'm in a CRISIS!" He replied, still sulking on the couch. Kaonashi still didn't know what exactly Masashi meant and he only shrugged his shoulders. Kaonashi slumped on a chair and sunk in its cushion. Friends the Chihuahua lept on the chair and cuddled with the spirit. Before Kaonashi closed his eyes completely, Masashi stood up and completely shifted gears…
"YES! IT'S POSSIBLE!" He said excitedly, grabbing air in his excited-ness.
"What is possible?" Kaonashi wondered. Masashi put his hands in his pockets and smiled.
"I have an older friend who works at this night club, and he gets me inside every single time! Wanna come with me, Kao?" He asked happily. Kaonashi blinked, patting Friend's head.
"When did you get so happy all of a sudden? Because when you're around me, you act all grumpy and crap." Kaonashi said. Masashi rolled his eyes.
"Did Fuu tell you that?"
"Yes."
"Of course she did." Masashi rubbed his temples, then stopped only a few moments later. "What do you say, Kao, are you up for it?" Kaonashi rubbed his chin. He didn't even know what a night club was. But, he sighed.
"Take me to this…night club." He spoke up. Masashi jumped up and down, ran to get money, and then dragged Kaonashi outside of the door to go to this so-called nightclub. Friends sneezed before he took Kaonashi's place on the chair cushion and fell asleep peacefully.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Meanwhile with Fuu and friends…
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
"Your new name shall be Sayuri." The movie was playing and Fuu and her friends were amused. All of a sudden, Fuu's phone vibrated in her blue jean pocket. She got it out and looked at the text message she received from her boyfriend.
"Kao and I are going outside to a restaurant! Don't mind us if we're gonna be a bit late! Love, Masashi!"
Fuu shut her phone off.
"If he goes to that night club again, I'm going to scourge his eyes out." She said, sipping some of her Dr. Pepper.
"Masashi goes to a night club?" Koko whispered over to her. Some of the other audience members shushed them. That didn't stop Koko and Fuu, though.
"He says that he has a good friend of his who manages there, and he allows Masashi to get in that place…which I'm 80% sure is illegal, but, Masashi is too dense to realize that." Fuu whispered back over to Koko.
"Whoa, he does his best to get into mischief, huh?" Koko whispered. "But I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go there tonight, especially with Kao in his hands. He'd probably stay home and play Guitar Hero or something on the Wii, right?" Koko mentioned. Fuu sighed.
"Hmm, you're right. There's no chance in hell that he would bring Kaonashi to a night club…" Fuu took a piece of buttery popcorn and popped it into her mouth as the movie continued to roll.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Back with Masashi and Kaonashi
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
The streets were busy with cars and taxis, and it as Kaonashi's first time in a taxi. He felt a bit claustrophobic, but he managed to survive when Masashi pulled him outside. Masashi paid the taxi driver as he drove away. The two guys turned around to face the entrance to the nightclub, which is called "Clover".
"This is it, Kao! Let's go!" Masashi made a hand gesture and walked right past the long line to the club. He walked up to the security guard.
"Friend of Light's." He said. The rather buff security guard nodded his head and led him in. Kaonashi stood there as the security man stared them down. Masashi came back.
"And guest." He said. The security guard nodded and led Kaonashi in, too. It was first a big maze of darkness…until Kaonashi heard very loud music…and saw flashes and colors everywhere…and people dancing.
"Whoa! Is this place heaven?" Kaonashi asked.
"What?" Masashi asked him, jumping up and down to the music.
"I SAID, IS THIS PLACE HEAVEN?" Kaonashi shouted.
"NO, IT'S 'CLOVER'!" Masashi replied, still jumping up and down. He then ran over to a group of young girls and started dancing with them, and the girls all enjoyed that. Kaonashi shrugged his shoulders and followed him to the group of girls. Masashi looked over at Kaonashi as he continued his dancing.
"I think I can help you win a girl tonight, Kao!" He shouted. Kaonashi looked at him, jumping up and down continuously.
"Win…like we have a contest or something?" Kaonashi asked him. Masashi then stopped bouncing and grabbed Kaonashi's shoulders, smiling wide.
"GREAT IDEA, KAO-KUN! Whoever picks up the most girls is the winner!" Masashi jumped up and down again as she ran over to another group of young girls and began talking to them. Immediately, they all surrounded him, and they began talking to him.
"If Fuu were here, she would probably kill him." Kaonashi sighed.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Back at the movie theatre
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
"Mamaya, what if I disgrace myself out there? What if something goes wrong and everyone—?"
"Sayuri. You will do great out there."
Fuu, Kiki, Koko, and Jiji continued watching the rather great film. Fuu was about to dive her hand into some more popcorn until her cell phone started to buzz in her pocket again. She took it out and looked at the text she got from…Kaonashi?
"Hi Fuu, its Kaonashi using Masashis sell foneWe ar at a restront called Clover, its a really heavnly plase.
Masashi asked me to text you this messag to tell you that 'Everythings all rite'.
We ar having a good time here, and he also said DO NOT pick us up after we ar dun.
Keep enjoing the movy. Se you toniht. Bye.
-Kaonashi"
"Wow, his spelling is terrible." Fuu said softly. Koko glanced over at the text message and tried to hold in her laughs.
"Agreed." She whispered.
"Clover…why does that place sound so familiar?" Fuu wondered, tapping her index finger on her chin. She then shrugged her shoulders and continued watching the film.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Back at Clover
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Kaonashi sat at the bar, where more unlucky single guys were than anywhere else. Kaonashi sighed before an attractive bartender girl came up.
"Can I get you a drink, sweetie?" She asked. He looked up and saw her straight black hair, bright blue eyes, and light layer of makeup.
"Uh…orange juice, please." He said. The girl raised an eyebrow then smiled.
"I'll see what I can get for ya." She said, smiling at the spirit. She walked away and Kaonashi looked at the bright lights in the club…until he saw Masashi prancing over with another guy, who looked oddly like him.
"Kao! Kao! I've been looking for ya, mate!" Masashi said happily. The other guy next to him was just as happy and bouncy as Masashi was.
"Masashi, who is this?" Kaonashi asked. Masashi blinked then looked over at the other man.
"Oh, this here is the guy who owns the place! His name is Light Yagami!" Masashi said, pointing at the older looking man. Light waved at Kaonashi. Light looked exactly like Masashi, they both had brown hair, both tall, and they both were rather hyper. Before Kaonashi said anything, the black-haired girl came back and handed Kaonashi the beverage.
"Here ya go! Made nice and fresh!" The woman said. Kaonashi grabbed the drink, sniffing its contents. It looked like orange juice, it smelled like orange juice, it had small little bubbles like orange juice…and as he took a sip, he agreed that it was an official glass of orange juice.
"Hey, Light, I didn't know you started serving kid's drinks here." Masashi said. Light glanced over at Masashi.
"Kid's drinks? What are you talking about?" Light asked his buddy. Masashi looked over at him again.
"Kao is drinking orange juice, isn't he?" Light then blinked and bit his lip, glancing over at the spirit with the beverage.
"Er…eheh…that's a new drink I added to the menu the other day…it's orange juice…mixed with vodka." Light said, trying to hide his nervousness with chuckles. Masashi blinked then gasped.
"OH, SHI—!"
"HEY, WAITRESS, GIVE ME ANOTHER ONE, PLEASE!" Kaonashi said, finishing the drink. The waitress giggled.
"Of course, sweetheart." The girl winked and walked away to get another drink of the "orange juice".
"Well, well, well, aren't you a little young to be in a night club?" A familiar voice came from behind Masashi and Light. He turned around…and saw Himiko Kimuchi.
"HIMIKO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Masashi asked her. She winked.
"She's my girlfriend." Light spoke up. The two then held hands as he kissed her on the cheek. Masashi's eyes widened and his jaw dropped in an instant.
"Just how old are you?" He asked her.
"Eighteen. And you, little boy?" Himiko teased. Masashi sighed.
"Fifteen…WAIT, YOU'RE EIGHTEEN? You're supposed to be 21 and older to be in this night club!" Masashi shouted.
"I can allow her…besides, it's the drinking age in other countries, you know." Light pointed out.
"BUT NOT IN THIS COUNTRY!" Masashi screeched at his friend.
"Then why are you in here again, little boy?" Himiko asked him. Before he answered, Himiko looked over his shoulder and saw something a bit familiar to her.
"Hey, is that Kaonashi at the bar?" She asked Masashi. Masashi gasped and blocked her view with his head.
"Nope! What are you talking about? Why on earth would I bring Kaonashi to a vulgar and unintelligent place like this?" Masashi was sweating bullets. If a shrine maiden like Himiko knew that Masashi let Kaonashi into this place…things would note bode well and will probably lose his privileges to keep Kaonashi…and that was the last thing Fuu wanted, and Fuu would then murder him and his soul.
Himiko looked like she was suspecting something.
"Strange, why do you seem so nervous when I'm around? Maybe he is here then!" Himiko said, trying to get past Masashi.
"No, no, no! I do not have him here!" Masashi said, still blocking her path. Himiko stopped and gasped.
"Look, a topless girl!" Himiko shouted. Masashi turned his head in another direction.
"WHERE?"
"Yeah, where?" Light asked. Himiko rolled her eyes as she made her way past Masashi. Masashi turned around and saw Himiko walking closer to the bar area.
"Oh, no!"
"Ugh, I can't believe I just belted those disgusting words out into the open! Oh, the many things I have to do to get past someone so dense like Masashi!" Himiko thought in her head. She put those thoughts behind her when she went up to the familiar figure.
"Hello there, old friend. Did that jerk Masashi bring you into this place?" Himiko put her hand on his shoulder…only it wasn't Kaonashi.
"Why, hello there sexy mama!" A young man turned around, drinking a shot of whiskey. Himiko stared in disgust as she walked away in fury. A few seconds after she walked away, Masashi and Light came up to the bar. The waitress that served Kaonashi was washing some martini glasses.
"Excuse me, Miss?" Masashi came up to her. She glanced over.
"Aren't you a little bit young to be in a night club, little boy?" She asked.
"Why does everyone keep calling me a little boy?" He thought to himself.
"Misty, do you know where the guy who drank the orange juice went?" Light then came up.
The waitress named Misty nodded.
"He had so many of those vodka orange juice drinks and then ran off to the dance floor. Believe me, for the seven months I have worked here, I have never seen a man drink that many drinks in that amount of time." Misty stated. Light nodded.
"Masashi, to the dance floor!" Light said. Masashi nodded.
"Right!"
The two guys went into the dance floor, where they had to push through tons of crowds just to find one dancer.
"WOOO! THIS SONG IS SO CATCHY!" The voice echoed throughout the club, and Light and Masashi turned around to see Kaonashi, dancing with nine beautiful girls. The song he was dancing to was called "Disturbia" by Rihanna. The nine girls all danced around him while Kaonashi did some of the weirdest and strangest dance moves. Masashi walked up and dragged him out of the group of dancing young girls. Light helped Masashi drag the spirit to the restrooms, where they set him down on a toilet to rest.
"Kaonashi, how many fingers am I holding up?" Light put up three fingers in front of Kaonashi's face.
"Nine?"
"Yeah, he's drunk." Light turned to Masashi. Masashi shook his head.
"Well of course he's drunk! I kind of figured that out when he was dancing like a maniac out there!" Masashi helped Kaonashi sit up, who constantly tried to fall over.
"Listen, Kao, you have to be sober again before we reach home! If Fuu, Kiki, Koko, or Jiji know that I brought you to this place, I'm screwed!" Masashi desperately said. Kaonashi tried to slump over again, but both men helped him sit up straight.
"But…I was danciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing." Kaonashi slurred. Masashi was about to say something, until he heard the door open…and high-heeled footsteps were heard.
"Where are those two? They're acting suspicious when they said that Kaonashi wasn't here…but I'm not sure if they're telling the honest truth or not." Himiko's voice was heard. Masashi froze and his eyes widened.
"Light…which restroom did you go through?" Masashi whispered, his throat quivering.
"The men's bathroom…I'm pretty sure…" Light swallowed.
"Then why is Himiko in the men's bathroom?" Masashi gritted his teeth.
"Maybe she's the one who's wrong!" Light whispered fiercely back. Not long after, three more high-heels were heard.
"Oh my God, that guy that was dancing to Disturbia out there was really smoking hot!" A girl's voice was heard.
"Yeah! I know! He's unique, and I like my men unique!" Another girl said.
"I wonder where he ran off to, though. I'm already missing his dance moves!" The third girl said. The three of them kept giggling and chatting while Light and Masashi slowly turned their heads to face each other.
"You dumbass, we're not only gonna be busted for letting Kaonashi get drunk, but we're also gonna get busted for 'peeping' in the girl's bathroom!" Masashi hissed quietly at his friend.
"I could've sworn that this was the men's bathroom! There are two bathrooms for each gender in the place, and I usually go to the one on the other side near the security office! I thought we were at the one near the security office!" Light hissed back. Kaonashi groaned loudly and he tried to slump over. They covered his mouth, but none of the girls seemed to hear them. The three girls left the bathroom, but Himiko was still there, fixing her hair and makeup.
"Why can't she leave already?" Masashi gritted. Kaonashi mumbled something into the guy's hands, but they couldn't decode the message.
"Dude, she's never gonna get out of here so quickly. She spends like ten minutes in the bathroom, so it'll probably be 10:10 when gets out." Light stated. Masashi froze and glanced over at his friend.
"Light, what time is it?" He asked frantically.
"10:00…now it's 10:01." Light said looking at his silver watch. Masashi was panicking.
"Oh my God, Fuu and everyone else are gonna be home at 10:30!"
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Back with Fuu and friends
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
"Geisha's are only half a wife…"The film ended and Fuu stood up in the seat, tears streaming down her eyes.
"That ending made me tear up so much! Jesus, you blessed this film!" Fuu shouted happily clapping. Kiki made a gesture for her to calm down as everyone in the theatre stood up to leave. Fuu took out her phone and looked at the time on it.
"It's 10:04, everyone. The drive isn't that long back to the apartment, its only twenty minutes away, so we'll be just fine!" Fuu said.
"Yeah, and I bet that Masashi and Kaonashi are back from that restaurant." Koko stated.
"Mm-hm, you're right. Masashi is responsible, and they were at the restaurant at 8:30, so they're sure to be at the apartment right now." Fuu said with an encouraging grin on her face…
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Back at Clover
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
"She's not leaving…its 10:07!" Masashi gritted his teeth in anger and panic. The door opened up and they saw black boots head over to where Himiko was.
"Hey, there's a spirit thing in here dancing around! You have to go see!" A familiar voice was heard. Himiko growled.
"I KNEW IT!!!!" Himiko screeched, going past the other girl and outside of the restroom. The other girl came up and opened the stall door, seeing the three men.
"Comfy in there?" Misty asked them.
"Not really, thanks Misty! You saved our butts!" Light got up from the stall and helped Masashi carry Kaonashi out of it, too.
"We have to go, Kaonashi! It's an emergency!" Masashi screeched. "We have to get a cab as fast as possible!" Masashi was dragging Kaonashi to the door until Misty stopped them.
"You live in that big apartment a few blocks from here, don't you?" Misty asked them. Masashi nodded his head. "I thought so. I know a shortcut, because this is the time where cabs are hard to get. If you cross the street and go past about fifteen or twenty backyards of houses, you'll get to the apartment a lot quicker." Misty said.
"You're really helpful…how long have you worked here again?" Masashi asked her. Kaonashi then groaned loudly as Light looked at his watch.
"It's 10:13 right now! You two have to hurry! Go out my office door so Himiko won't spot you going out the front door!" Light said. Masashi nodded.
"Thanks you two, I'll see you soon!" Masashi dragged Kaonashi out the restroom.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Outside of the Movies
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
"Geez, why are all these cabs taken?" Kiki asked.
"Well, it's usually busy around 10 to 10:30, so I've heard." Fuu stated, waving her hand to get a cab, but they all passed them, occupied.
"We're never gonna get a cab!" Koko whined. "It's only 10:16, too!"
"Aha, here's one!" Fuu got an empty taxi and they all hopped in and it drove away to the apartment.
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
In the streets
----+----+----+----+--------+----+----+----+----
Masashi carried Kaonashi on his back as he ran through the many backyards. He ran past a guy finishing up his garden and a guy cleaning up his grill, where he took his soda can and finished the drink before hiding the can in another neighbor's plant.
The girls' taxicab was nearing the apartment, and Masashi was running a little ahead of it, unaware that his girlfriend and her friends were in the car he was in front of. Fuu was in the passenger seat and glanced over to see the running figure, unfamiliar of which it really was, even with the spirit on his back, and glanced back at the front window. Masashi glanced at the car behind him and gasped to see Fuu, and he ran behind it to the other side of the sidewalk. Fuu glanced over at where she saw the runner before, but he had vanished.
Masashi ran through more backyards and even ran through one house. He went into the house's living room, where a guy watching TV was rather surprised to see Masashi carrying the spirit on his back. He also went through the kitchen, where a mother was baking a late night snack.
"Smells delicious!" Masashi exclaimed. He then went outside where a bunch of middle school kids were, getting ready for the snack. "Snack's ready!" Masashi ran past them. They all seemed confused at Masashi.
It was 10:24
Masashi then saw the apartment coming closer to his view, and he only had one more backyard to go through. He climbed up a playground slide, jumped off of the playground, landed on a trampoline, and jumped over the fence, still holding onto Kaonashi on his back. The jump to the ground almost seemed like slow motion as he saw the apartment just across the street. He landed on the ground and ran across the street and through the doors of the apartment.
10:26
The cab went in front of the apartment.
"Wow, I still can't stop talking about that great movie we just saw!" Kiki exclaimed. "Even Jiji teared up at the ending."
"I'm not listening." Jiji groaned.
…
Masashi was tapping his foot at the elevator going up to floor six. When it landed on floor six, he ran to his room, crossing his fingers that the girls didn't arrive in the apartment yet. He ran to his room, got out his room key, and entered the room, where it was untouched when he last left. He closed the door and locked it as he set Kaonashi down on the couch, where he was groaning. Masashi turned on the TV and put it on a random channel. He then bent down to Kaonashi.
"You all right, Kao?"
"Yeeeeeeeees…Nooooooooooooooo…I dunnooooooooooo…" Kaonashi replied. His breath stank of vodka. Masashi frantically searched around as he heard footsteps coming near his room. He then grabbed Tic Tacs from a drawer in the room, put six in Kaonashi's mouth, where he chewed them and swallowed them. Masashi then lept onto the empty space on the sofa, flipped it to a movie channel, and the door opened where Fuu came inside with company.
"Hey baby!" Fuu smiled. Masashi glanced over.
"Hi. There you are, you're late. You said 10:30, but its 10:32." Masashi grinned. Fuu smiled back.
"C'mon, its only two minutes later." Fuu walked over and pecked Masashi on the lips. She then glanced over at Kaonashi.
"Is he asleep?" Kiki asked. Masashi glanced over and saw that Kaonashi passed out right when the girls and cat entered in the room.
"Uh, yeah. We ate so much stuff at that new restaurant downtown that he got so tired and fell asleep when we got home. All I've been doing is watching some TV." Masashi said.
"Kaonashi said that the restaurant was called Clover…isn't that the name of a night club?" Koko asked. Masashi froze.
"Uh, no, he thought it was called Clover because we went past it, and he was amused by how loud the music was just from the outside, but we went to the restaurant not far down from it." Masashi said. Fuu smiled.
"I knew we could rely on you while we hade girl's night out!" She smiled. "Now, I'm awfully sleepy. We're gonna go to bed, okay Ishi-kun?" Masashi nodded.
"Okay, good night." Masashi smiled as the girls and Jiji went into Fuu's room. As soon as the door closed, Masashi exhaled.
"Never again will I do that."
To be continued!Some things in this story!
The movie that Fuu and friends saw- if any of you recognized it, the movie the girls and Jiji saw was Memoirs of a Geisha. I couldn't think of any other movie, and it was the first chick flick that came to my mind. It's also one of my favorite movies! I do not own Memoirs of a Geisha…
Light Yagami- Yes, Death Note fans, Light is the owner of a nightclub! Well, it isn't the same Light from Death Note, I just used the same name and appearance with a different personality…but I do NOT own him…
Running Through Backyard Scene/ running near car scene- if you're a fan of the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", you'll easily recognize these scenes. If you haven't seen this movie, go out and rent it and watch it and this will make these scenes a lot funnier (It's hard to type it down!)
I had so much fun typing this chapter! It's the longest chapter by far, and I enjoy it! Thanks for waiting for me to update after such a long period of time! I'll try to update more ASAP! SEE YAS!
