(The Rainy Day)

Ikki hated the rain. He hated water in general, but when the sky decided to open up and drench the world outside there was something about it that made the Phoenix Saint feel confined.

"Hey Ikki."

Especially when he was stuck with his room-mates.

"What?" Ikki asked. If he sounded annoyed, it was due to the fact that he was. Ikki felt like he had asked that question a hundred times since Hyoga had decided he would much rather take his boredom out on the older Saint.

"Well, sounds like somebody's a Mister Grumpy-pants." Hyoga snickered, failing in his attempts to baby talk his friend.

Ikki seethed; Revy was the only one he put up with belittling him that way, and only because she had budded up with Resa to beat him up anytime he didn't agree with the pet names.

"Hyoga, stop teasing Ikki." Shun, ever-present peace keeper, spoke up in Ikki's defense. That was his Shun alright, never one to let his big brother take any scrutiny. Well, until someone talked him out of it.

"Oh leave him be." Like Harmony. Currently she was more preoccupied tying things into Shun's hair to actually give Ikki a moment of her time. "It's either Ikki or us, and I'm sure Ikki doesn't mind taking one for the team, do you Ikki-butt?"

Great, now Harmony was doing it.

Seeing as Hyoga wasn't getting the reaction he wanted from his prey, the blond decided on a new method.

"Hyoga…" Twitch, twitch.

"Yeah?" Poke.

"Why don't you do something useful," poke. "Like go help Resa in the kitchen or something."

"… Nah." Poke poke.

"Then why don't you stop poking me?!"

Ikki took a swing at the Saint of Cygnus, impacting strongly with the side of his targets face. Hyoga fell to the floor. The blong stayed there stunned for a moment, before jumping to his feet. The Saint of Phoenix's eyes bugged slightly when Hyoga made a battle cry (that sounded strangely like 'for the pizza!') before pouncing on him.

Shun watched, perplexed, as his brother and best friend rolled off the window sill to continue their little brawl on the floor. Harmony hardly seemed concerned, but looked up when two familiar figures appeared on the scene.

"Coffee?" Sorrento asked, holding out a cup just out of reach of the flying fists.

Hyoga, though distracted, was coherent enough to hear and promptly fled the room. Ikki was about to peruse his fellow Saint, but the other newcomer had other plans. A fist flew out of nowhere, connecting roughly with his ribs.

"You… you… you!" Resa, who had been happy just avoiding all of them in the kitchen, didn't seem pleased. And, as usual, she decided to take that anger out on Ikki. She took Ikki, who was much larger than herself, roughly by the collar to hall him to his feet. "Why don't you take a minute and cool off?!"

Ikki was suddenly reminded that Resa liked to keep the windows open when it rained, as he was now sitting out in it.

What did he do to deserve this kind of treatment, anyway, Ikki contemplated as he was pelted mercilessly by rain-drops.

That and all the ways he could take revenge on his land-lady later.
