Hazzard - Okay, I'm not thoroughly checking this chapter for gramma mistakes.
Kisshu - Lazy -_-
Hazzard - No!
Kisshu - Err - yeah! Why can't you check your work?
Hazzard - Cause I need to write chapter 22 so I can update within a week xp
Ichigo - Oh, are you updating quicker then?
Hazzard - Err...
Kisshu - No, Hazzard just means that she's nearly finished all of her exams and also that because she has finished one of her other on-going stories she has more time to spend on our love story.
Ichigo - Okay, one - ew!
Kisshu - Thanks, honey -_-
Ichigo - And two - Hazzard, are you gonna update quicker when your exams are finished?
Hazzard - Err...
Kisshu - I suppose that means, we'll see.
* ~ Chapter 21 = Chaynie's Sugar rushed Solution ~ *
"What if she just, like – I don't know – ran away?" Burakkberi shrugged, as she paused the game she had been playing for almost two hours.
"Because Ichigo wouldn't do that!" Kish hissed in the girl's face.
She didn't like that and shot up to her feet so that she didn't feel so small and inferior. But although they were both now standing, glaring at each other, she still had to look up at him as he was taller. "Well, I'm sorry! I was just suggesting an idea!"
"Please sit down, Bura-chan, we mustn't cause a commotion if not necessary," Rezun gently pulled on her sister's sleeve, signally for her to sit back down. But, after a moment, Burakkberi spitefully yanked her arm out of her sister's grip and slumped back down in to the sofa with a huff. Rezun quietly resigned to herself again, feeling a sort of rejection.
"Kisshu-san, you shouldn't worry too much. Ichigo is very strong," Retasu assured him, but he threw his hands in the air making some of the group jump.
"But she wouldn't just leave like this! She wouldn't go somewhere without me! Or without telling me at least," he cried looking desperate. Then his expression turned to anger, "Someone took her – I'm sure. They had to! It's the only other thing I can think of!"
"Only other thing?" Pai repeated, he then went on to ask, "So what was your first theory?"
"Don't!" Kish snapped, glaring daggers at his friend. Of course he meant no harm, but he couldn't bare to think of Ichigo in that way. Her pale face expressionless, her body limb on the ground, her eyes – if open – glazed over and staring at nothing in particular. No! She wasn't dead! She wasn't! She's strong! She's so very strong.
It was silent for a few moments as people tried to think of scenarios why their beloved redhead had not returned home yet – it had been two and half hours since she left and the store wasn't very far at all. But she wasn't even there. Kish had checked half an hour ago. He changed in to his human-fashion clothing and teleported behind the store. He then roamed every isle looking for her thoroughly. Then, when he finally concluded that she wasn't there, he decided to go back home but instead of teleporting he walked on the hope of running in to her on the way. But he had no such luck.
Suddenly the air beside him rippled and Minto, Zakuro and Burakkberi and Rezun gasped as Chaynie appeared. Chaynie looked round at the new faces she had not met yet.
"Oh!" she cried looking at each one in turn. She then smiled and greeted them cheerily, "Hello, it's nice to meet you. My name is Chaynie! Oh! You're all so cute! Hee!"
"Chaynie, now is not the time. Please go away," Kish growled at her.
She frowned and crossed her arms like a small child, "Well now, that's not very nice, is it cousin?"
"Chaynie, Ichigo's missing!" he shouted at her.
The entire group was slightly shocked when she didn't seem the slightest bit intimidated by him.
"You don't have to shout in my face, y'know. I can hear just fine," Chaynie said sticking her nose in the air. Then it registered and she looked back at him shocked, "Oh my god! Ichigo's gone? Well, where's she gone?"
"How the heck SHOULD I KNOW?" Kish screamed at her, "If I knew that I WOULDN'T BE SO FRICKING WORRIED NOW, WOULD I?"
"Oh, yes. I'm sorry," she apologised. She then explained, "I really am sorry, you see. I tried some human food – like these things called doughnuts and milkshakes and soup! Apparently I'm suffering from something the humans call a sugar rush! So, I'm sorry about my behaviour at the moment, Kishy-chan! Hee!"
"You can't get a sugar rush from soup," Burakkberi commented plainly, absentmindedly glaring at the unknown alien.
"But you can from consuming too many doughnuts and milkshakes," Rezun added looking at her sister sideways, too shy to look to her directly.
"Yeah, I suppose," Burakkberi shrugged.
"Anyway~!" Chaynie half sang. She then turned to Kisshu remembering something, "Oh! You know what I haven't seen my husband in a few hours now and you know how obedient he is."
"So that leaves Konsta and Ava," Kish pointed out understanding what she was getting at.
"Ah, yes," Pai said also understanding, "But Konstantin would not kidnap Ichigo without her causing us a big threat."
"And we see her as no threat," Chaynie smiled, looking from Pai to Kish.
"So, Avabree," Kisshu said looking to Pai. It was his sister after all; he should know her better than anyone. When he nodded to Kish, Kish growled under his breath extremely annoyed and irritated.
After a moments notice he disappeared through a ripple in the air. The group in the room gasped. Some because he had just vanished before their eyes and they were still not used to the aliens' strange ways (the twins) and some because they knew exactly where he was going and exactly how he would react. Some knew him well enough to know that he would act on impulse, as always without thinking, and sometimes the consequences were quite high.
Hazzard - Oh! Chaynie on a sugar rush! x'D
Kisshu - You were like that at school today -_-
Hazzard - Not all day!
Ichigo - No...not all day...but after your english literature exam -
Hazzard - Urgh!
Ichigo - -you drank some Pepsi Max and went kinda mad.
Kisshu - Laughing at her own laugh is not kinda mad! It's flipping insane!
Hazzard - I am aware of my mental instability, thank you very much!
