Kyouya and Tamaki had left the meeting room. Trunks had come back from the Cell Games, coming out victorious.

"After coming back to life, I decided to return here before going back to my time." he told them all, very optimistic. "I'm sure that you've made great progress."

"Oh, yeah. You know…" Kaoru was saying awkwardly after hearing of Trunks' hard work and death experience. "We've been hard at work… saving people… you know it… right Hikaru?"

"What are you taking about? We had an intense game of find out the new recruits…" then he realized what Kaoru had been getting at. "Oh…" he said awkwardly.

"Retreat!!" the twins said, sliding away, leaving Trunks very confused.

"Tama-chan! Tama-chan!! Takashi won!!" Hunny said, jumping up and down going all around Tamaki. It was amazing how much more happy Hunny was over the fact that Mori had won than Mori was himself. He was still all silent as ever. "So what's his prize!??"

"Well…" Tamaki said, making a pose. "We would be going on a bunch of commoner trips. I've never done that. It intrigues me as to why people would be drawn to places like the CN Tower, oh and Niagara Falls. We've GOT to see the Falls. Mori-senpai and I can deepen our friendship now!"

"I'm glad I didn't win." said Ichigo walking away. A murmur of agreement followed. Even Mori seemed not too excited or impressed.

"Huh? What??" Tamaki asked, thoroughly confused. "You don't like it? Haruhi, you love Daddy's idea, right!??"

"I feel insulted." Haruhi said drearily.

As the Bishi League left their headquarters once more, Haruhi had another question to ask her senpai, Kyouya. "Did you know the twins would go farther with your game?"

Kyouya turned around, mildly interested. "I don't know what you mean." he simply stated.

"Don't try and play innocent." Haruhi said. 'The host club always hides their issues…but in this case, their plans…'

They were all together, just outside of the Roger's Center, when the twins had another one of their brilliant ideas. "You know…" Hikaru said to Kaoru, loud enough for everyone to hear. "We were TESTED before WE got into the League."

"Oh yeah… we ALL were. An initiation test…" Kaoru said.

"Maybe milord thought that they were too young and shouldn't be tested?..."

"Hey, where IS milord?"

"With Mori-senpai, remember?"

"Poor guy…"

"You mean you guys seriously haven't done anything?" Trunks asked, finally finding out that they indeed were seriously playing a game.

"We can do any test!!" Ed said, falling for the twins' taunts.

"I don't know… how old ARE you?"

"Sixteen!" Ed said proudly.

"And I'm forteen!!" Al said enthusiastically.

Kyo joined their conversation. "But… you're so--"

"DON'T SAY IT!!" Ed said fuming.

"Didn't you learn your lesson the first time?" Yuki asked with a sigh.

"But look! Momiji is just a year younger and he's taller!!"

"No! Look, I'm taller!!" Ed stood next to Momiji. He was indeed slightly taller.

"Take off your boots. And we won't count your hair. It sticks up too much." Ichigo said. They were all enjoying tormenting Ed.

"Does someone happen to have a measuring tape?"

"Hunny, you come here too."

"You two can go barefoot too."

"Stand next to each other."

"Ed, you can't suck in."

"And you can't stand on your tip-toes."

"Ed get back here. wtf?"

At last, they had succeeded in measuring them all. "Here are the results." Kakashi oh-so-pro-ly. "Your shortest Bishi: Hunny, at a height of 4 foot 9."

"Heh!" Hunny giggled cheerfully. It didn't bother him at all.

'Freak!' Ed thought. How could he be happy that he was the shortest and older than both of us? 'At least I'm not the shortest…' that had been his greatest fear.

"Your tallest short Bishi: Momiji. He's 5 foot 1."

"How 'bout big brother? How tall is he?"

"4 foot 11."

"AHHH! I want you to measure me again!!" Ed declared forcefully. "I'm sure I'm 5 feet!!"

"Well, back to our main point!" the twins said. "And that is your test."

"Yes! I can take any test you throw at me!" Ed said. "And Al too!!"

'We'll see…' the twins thought slyly.

---

After talking amongst each other, they came up with a plan.

"It can't be harder than the alchemist test, right?" Ed asked Al. Al just shrugged. He knew just as much as Ed in this matter.

"There will be two parts." Kakashi said, acting as referee and judge. Light was taking no interest or part in this. Link sat back contently and watched. Trunks was kind of disappointed in the League.

"C'mon! Live a little." Haru said to him encouragingly. "Everyone needs a break."

"The first part," Kakashi went on "is to prove that you are truly bishonen."

"We all found it hard to believe you were." The twins stated. "In this test, you will need to collect twenty phone numbers each of girls that are not related to you."

"Should we make the rule they need to be hot too?" said a voice from Ichigo's pocket. It seems he had a stowaway. Kon, the soul in a teddy bear, had come along for the ride. "Then you boys can give them to me!!"

"What the hell are you doing here!??" Ichigo asked.

"I should've been invited to this!!" Kon yelled. "I'm just as bishonen as YOU!! Or maybe even more! You're hardly handsome and graceful!"

"No one wants to be with a freaky teddy bear!!" and Ichigo tossed him roughly. It was like when Team Rocket goes blasting off again. He was just a little speck in the sky, twinkling away. You could faintly hear his scream as it faded away.

"Anyways…"

"When do we start?" asked Al.

"RIGHT NOW!!"

"Ah! Okay!!" then they ran off nervously.

---

"We were acting pretty cocky and confident before, but… how are we going to do this?" Ed wondered. "Does Winry count as a relative or a person we can ask?"

"Hey, that's a good idea."

"HEY! That's my idea. Get your own."

Al gasped. "This is exactly what they WANT us to do! They want us to fight and never finish this part!!"

"You may be right …"

"We have to work together and get twenty phone numbers each!"

"There's the first person." said Ed, pointing at a girl in her teens. "Maybe I should go first… set an example…" and so that's what he did. "Hey baby. You're looking fine today." (WORST pick-up line ever)

The girl looked down at him. "Sorry, I'm not into younger guys."

"Is it 'cause of my height!?? I'm only this short because… I-I'm feeling short today!! I'm normally much taller." (WORST excuse ever) Ed said desperately. The girl ignored his feeble attempts and walked away.

"That was horrible, nii-san." Al said to him as Ed walked back in shame. "I don't think today's your day… you've been so unlucky." They noticed another target. This time, Al went. Poor Ed's heart had been shattered into a million pieces.

"Maybe… using equivalent exchange…I can use alchemy…" Ed was saying quietly to himself "to get…REVENGE! BWA HAHAHAHA!!!" When he looked up, only then did he notice his younger brother to be missing.

"Oh no!! I must save Al from the horrors of heartbreak!! Forget the 'Truth'. This is brutal!" He ran to find Al surrounded by a bunch of cute girls.

"You're so tall and polite! How cute!!" one girl said to him.

"He's so mysterious! Look how he wears armor to make him remind you of being knightly!!" another girl said.

Ed was even more depressed when he saw the girl that he was trying to get was there, admiring Al. In no time; he had collected over twenty numbers. Al was pretty cheerful after that.

"Maybe I'm taking the wrong approach… Do… do little girls count?" Ed said, brainstorming some more. "Not like pedophile little… but like twelve years olds? Or does that still make me look pedophile?"

"Hey look. Schools over." A bunch of girls started coming out of their elementary school. Ed began walking up to them with confidence.

"I must get those numbers!!" Ed said with an obsession. Now it wasn't just to get into the League. It was personal--he had to prove himself.

---

The Elric brothers returned to the headquarters with the phone numbers. Tamaki and Mori had returned too.

"Takashi!! I missed you thiiiiiiiis much!!" Hunny said. he jumped onto Mori's back and extended both of his hands as far as they could go.

"So… what the second task?" asked Ed smugly.

"There is no other test." said the twins gruffly. "We were bluffing."

"Now I wish there WAS another test…" muttered Kyo after seeing Ed's arrogance.

"We have agreed, though, that Ed should win the prize for worst pick-up line and excuse used on the same girl." Hikaru stated.

"That was indeed sad." Tamaki said.

"You weren't even there!!" yelled Ed embarrassed and furious.

"Ah, but luckily Hunny-senpai had it all on tape!"

"No way!!" Ed said, least expecting something tricky from him.

"I didn't want Takashi or Tama-chan to miss anything!" Hunny said cutely.

"Can you make a copy for me? I want to show Rin." Haru said calmly. Then he turned to Trunks. "So, did you have fun?"

"I must say that it was amusing…" Trunks said awkwardly.

"See? What did I tell you?"


- - apparently 'remeasure' isn't a word… I thought for sure… I've learnt so much writing this series. I got into this heated conversation with my sister… it sounded really funny to say remeasure over and over. I could've sworn that remeasure was a word… Don't be offended, those of you that are fans of Ed. I'm a fan of him too. - -
