Kon'nichiwa! I was at camp for a week, but I am now at home to write! …For the time being, anyways… Let me see, this is chapter eleven, which means that we have about… three more to go? Yeah, about there. Well, I really hope that more of you will take the time to review. Thanks, all of you that did!

Disclaimer: As Kyo said to Shishou, "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride." I don't own Furuba. But I own the Dr. Pepper Company! …No, I unfortunately do not own that, either… Ehehe…

The victim is… (Hint) Everyone try a chicken wing! (don't own that phrase… Hannah Montana- Jackson Stewart) Do you get it? Our victim for this chapter is none other than Kureno Sohma! I feel that since I am year of the rooster, I should try to make this chapter extra good! I hope you all enjoy it!

P.S. I told you all my year, so try to figure out my age! I'm no older than twenty years of age, and my birthday was around three weeks ago.

Kureno was worn out. All day, he had been trying to get a hold of Uotani, who was out shopping for groceries. He prayed that she would call him back soon, but, alas, his prayers didn't seem to be working.

He heard the phone ring. It took him by great surprise, even though he had been half-suspecting a call. He hoped that it was from Uo.

Picking up the phone, he took in a deep breath and said, "Hello, this is Kureno Sohma. Is this Uotani?"

"Naw, sir," Said a man with a hick accent. "I done wanna make yous a good deal on friiiied chicken! Made 'specially outta roosters! They is just plain out yummy!"

Kureno's eyes bulged out. "…Rooster? You cook with rooster?"

The man let out a very annoying laugh that was so loud, it made Kureno think that his eardrum was going to burst. "Yes, sir! It tastes much better than the fried chicken, and, hey what's the difference? They's both on a farm? What do care? You ain't no rooster!"

'Not anymore, but I'd still feel like a cannibal…' He tried to regain his composure (even though he was only speaking over the phone) and hesaid to the man,"Sir, I'm not interested in buying your junk food."

The loud caller let out a gasp to show that he was very offended at Kureno's words. "How could you say that!? Rooster ain't junk food! It's a gift! I'll show you some real junk food! You just wait, mister, I'll get you!"

The man hung up, and Kureno let out a sigh of relief. "I'm so glad that's over…"

"What's over, Kureno?"

Kureno turned his head to the side and saw Uo standing next to him with her eyebrows cocked in suspicion. "Who was that on the phone?"

"It was nobody but a telemarketer." Kureno answered softly. "I think I made him angry, though. He was selling 'fried rooster', and I said that I didn't want any of his junk food… Then, before hanging up, he said that he would show me real junk food." He laughed at the thought. "I don't know what he thinks he's going to do, but I'm not going to take my time to worry about it."

Uo shook her head in an annoyed fashion and rolled her eyes. "Men…" she breathed. The young girl thrust some groceries into Kureno's arms, and walked off to her room, muttering about how dumb Kureno could be.

Kureno laughed at her antics, and peacefully started to dial her number again, only to realize that she was already home. He muttered, "Wow, I really am dumb…" he stood up to go to her room and talk to her, only to trip on the air surrounding him. "Graah!"

Uo waltzed back into the study with an arrogant face. "You can't go anywhere without making mistakes, can you?"

"And you're saying that you can?"

She laughed. "Touché."

There was a knock at the front door. Uo jumped a little out of surprise, and tapped her foot, trying to decide whether to help Kureno off the floor, or to answer the door.

Kureno, reading into her expression, said, "Go answer it. I can get up on my own. I'm not a three-year-old anymore."

She nodded and quickly left to answer the door. He attempted to get up, only to fall again. On the third try, he successfully stood up and followed Uo. Before he reached her, she looked back at him and went towards him, when they reached each other, she whispered to him, "There's some man with garbage bags at the door. He says he wants to speak with you about something?"

"Eh?"

Kureno went to the open door and saw the man that Uo had described to him. He was wearing large overalls with no shirt under it, a dirty hat, and it seemed like he had forgotten to shave that morning.

"Are you the man from earlier?" Kureno asked.

"Indeed I am," said the man with a sickly grin. "I told you I'd come, did I not?"

"Kureno, who is this weirdo?" Uo inquired from right behind him. She looked him up and down. "Why are you here, dressed like THAT?" She sneered, disgusted.

"I'm just here to give this guy a piece of my mind! No one talks about my roosters like that. I'm here to give yous some real junk food!"

Three more men came up behind him, each carrying a large, bulging trash bag. They were all dressed as poorly as the first man. Kureno told Uo to step back, and when she followed his orders, the first man commanded, "Let 'em have it!"

Kureno's eyes went very wide at this order, as he finally realized what they were doing. Before he had time to run, he was engulfed in a mountain of trash, mainly consisting of rotten food.

He closed his mouth soon enough so he wouldn't get any food in his mouth. Uo gasped in shock and rushed back to Kureno, and tried to dig some of the trash off of him. She had a right mind to call the authorities, but when she looked up again, the men were already gone.

Kureno and Uo grabbed their noses at the terrible stench of the rotting food, and Uo said, "Just so you know, I won't be kissing you for a couple of days after this little incident."

Kureno nodded. "I suppose I can accept that…"

That was a lot of fun to write! Hehe… I sure would hate to have all of that trash dumped on me, though… Now I feel a little guilty for hurting a fellow rooster… (Goes into a corner to mope)

I'm back, so, please review, everyone! Stay tuned for chapter twelve!
