Episode 20




Here's chapter 20. 'Nuff said. Oh and sorry Miaka! I gave you a wee little part!


Standard Discailmer Apllies.


A girl sat on a jeweled throne, her face shadowed. She smiled evily as she twirled a cup in her hands. A man with long blonde hair kneeled in front of her. "Nakago, why are two of my seishi and a palace guard being whipped in the basement?" she asked coldly but smoothly. Nakago stood before her. "Those two, Bakaneru and Enrio, were too easily tricked by one of the Enkai sieshi, Yui-sama." The girl stopped twirling the cup. "They left their posts by the Enkai no Miko's cell? What about the guard?" she asked. " He didn't even put up a fight to stop the Enkai seishi from rescuing her." Yui smiled once again. "So, that is why I was informed that she wasn't here. How many seishi does she and the other girl have?" Nakago smiled. "The Enkai no Miko has 4, and the Suzaku no Miko has 2." Yui laughed. "Suzaku is a bit behind. No matter, we will dealm with them later. Now, concentrate on finding the location of my next seishi." Nakago nodded slightly. "As you wish, Yui-sama." He then turned and exited the room. Yui smiled and snapped her fingers. An eerie song began to be played, by a boy in the shadows with a flute. Yui closed her eyes. 'Enkai and Suzaku, you will be mine.'

"Dum Dum Dum...Da Dee Dee Dum," Tiffany sang as she skipped down the path ( like your character today, Miaka?) Vince sighed. 'Man, what has she been drinking? She sure is happy!' He sighed again. He always felt like this after he left his family's house. He loved his father, sisters and brothers very much and wished he could spend all his time with them, because he knew they needed him. Suddenly he became aware that Tiffany was calling him. "Hey Vince! Look! A town!" she cried, pointing. They had reached a new town (aduh!) and Tiffany was dying to go shopping. "But you don't have any money!" he said, and Tiffany smiled. "YES I DO!! MABONU GAVE ME EXTRA!!" She laughed and ran ahead while Vince stood, dumbstruck. "HEY! I DIDN'T GET ANY!!" Vince ran after her. Tiffany smiled. ' This oughta pull him out of his slump!' she thought happily. She was so busy watching Vince as he chased after her that she didn't see the man standing in front of her. She banged into him and fell backwards onto the ground. Vince ran up. "Hey Tiff, you okay?" She nodded and looked up at the man she had banged into. She gasped and stood up, knocking Vince into the dirt. She couldn't believe it!

Melissa sat up and stretched her arms. She and her seishi had decided to take a rest, since they had been walking all day from the bandits hide out. Tasuki was stretched out on the ground too, but he was asleep. You could tell because he was snoring. Melissa smiled. 'Wow, two seishi from Fushigi Yuugi are mine! I wonder who gets Chichiri. Is he even here?' Nuriko and genki were having arm wrestling contest,with Sukai as the judge, and Nuriko was winning every time. Melissa giggled as she watched Genki yell that Nuriko was cheating by using his powers. So Nuriko agreed not to use his powers. He still won. Melissa giggled again, then snapped her head over to the forest. 'Hey, what was that?' She got up and stared at the forest, because she could have swarn she saw a blinking light. She looked at Tasuki, who was still fast asleep, and then at the others, who were still arm wrestling and not paying any attention to her. She knew she should tell them she was going off into the forest, but she didn't want to lose sight of the light. So she quietly snuck off into the forest.
Once there, she quickly scanned the area for the light. 'No sign of it anywhere!' she thought desperately. She looked around a little more, and then sighed. "Guess it was nothing," she said, then began to turn around. Just as she was about to turn around, she caught sight of the blinking, out of the corner of her left eye. She turned back around and took off towards the blinking light. She ran and ran for what felt like hours, but could only have been minutes. She paused once, for breath, but then took off again as she saw the light to thr right now. She pressed on, deeper into the forest. It was getting dark. She was about to give up and turn back (because it probably HAD been hours by now, and Nuriko and the others were probably having a fit) when she saw it. The light was the brightest it had ever been, and was shining directly in front of her, behind a bush. Melissa was suddenly scared. 'Why did I come all the way here? What if it is a monster?' she thought desperately and (here comes the emotional inbalance Melissa is famous for!) suddenly wished she could be with Nuriko and he could tell her not to worry about it. She created a backbone at that moment, though, and furiously pushed the bushed out of the way. She stared down at the light's source. It was a tiny golden ball, and it was radiating light. She slowly bent down and picked up the tiny ball, and suddenly.............

Nuriko called Melissa's name again desperately. " MELISSA!" he called out, "WHERE ARE YOU? ANSWER ME!!" His stomach was clenching up, and bad thoughts were popping into his mind. Tasuki was also ina a tizzy. 'Damn!' he thought as he looked around, 'I didn't know her for 2 days, I fall asleep and she is gone!' Genki and Sukai ran back to the two. "We didn't find her by that lake over there!" Genki said, out of breath. Sukai looked really worried. "I couldn't find her anywhere! She just disappeared!" he said. Nuriko scowled. "Impossible," his face fell, "she has to be here!" Genki put a hand on his shoulder. "Relax, Nuri, Melissa is a smart kid, she can take care of her self.....for the (cough) most part." Nuriko sighed. Suddenly, a bright light flashed before the boys, and the boys shaded their eyes against it. When it cleared, they gasped. Melissa was satnding there, holding someting in her hands and looked VERY confused. "MELISSA! you're okay!" Nuriko said, and he hugged her tightly. She hugged him back, then said, "Uh, hi guys, uh, how the hell did I get back here?"
