I'm going to have to start neutering and spading my plot bunnies, because there's always a new litter every day. Too many!
Lavi: That sounds so cruel! Why would you do that!?
If it means getting my stories under control, I will do it. Either they stop mating or no more forever!
Lavi: Ne, Yuu, can I have a litter?
Why not? I'm already busy with this one and another one of the female bunnies are pregnant with another litter, and it will go up if I get these controlled and done. It's an FMAxDGM one.
Lavi:... I'm lost with this system, Yuu.
I'll explain later.

Lavi Gets a Fight and Fun at the Festival!
*Lavi POV*
That's it! It seems Kutoka is always getting into fights and I have to run away with Moyashi and Yuu-chan! And now there's an unknown cat involved. I set the three cats down and run off back in the opposite direction. As I reached the alley, a dark flash flew by in front of me, almost taking me out. It was the cat from before, or at least I think it is. It was an older teen with dark brown hair with pointed ears and a long cat tail. He flashed his insane red eyes at me, and smirked. As he raises a bloody clawed hand, I activated my Innocence and crushed him. Kutoka emerged from the alley, holding her side, blood seeping through her fingers.
"Lavi? Idiot, I told you to get those three out of here!"
"What? No thank you for defeating this guy," I yelled back jokingly. "I'm hurt, Neko."
She facepalmed and sighed. "Tell me they're at least a good distance."
"Very safe."
"Not... for long," said the teen as he struggled to lift my hammer off him. Blood dripped from his lips and head, rage flaring in his eyes like the fires of Hell.
I struggled to keep him pinned, Kutoka pushing the hammer down with all she's got, but Diablo kept it still and then it started moving.
"Kukuku... can't keep me down, half-breed? You're still weak!"
With one last push, Diablo is freed, throwing us a good three meters and is heading straight for me.
"I'll teach you to not to interfere with the business of youkai!" His eyes were wide with bloodlust and insanity. It made me shake in my boots, but I got a hold of myself and aim my hammer at him. "Extend!"
The shaft of my Innocence grew and the head slammed into Diablo's gut, stabbing him with the point at the end and pinning him to a wall. He struggled but soon found it useless. He glared at me, then set his sights on Kutoka, who was walking up to him, her fists clenched. They have a glaring match before Kutoka punched him. I would have stopped her, telling her he has had enough, but her tail swayed slowly like a metronome. I should keep my distance.
"That was for involving an innocent, naive cat in your insanity."
She punched him again, but much harder. I think I hear his jaw break.
"That was for coming here."
Then, Kutoka grabbed his head and slammed it into the wall behind it.
"That was for attacking my best friend!"
Now a shady black aura outlined her body, a chill entering the usually warm autumn air.
"And this is for going after my little brother and courtmate(1)!"
With that, Kutoka impaled where my hammer was running through him, making the hole bigger and blood pool at their feet. I released him and Diablo collapsed into his blood. Kutoka watched as the young man gulped and gasped in pain, then walked away and I followed.
"Hey Kutoka..." I started but trailed off to never finish, but Kutoka got what I wanted to ask.
"Yes, Lavi... it was necessary. That's how youkai work. I already told you this when you agreed to be my courtmate."
"I know. But I haven't seen that much blood shed in a fight before."
"Then you haven't seen a fight between those of demon descent," she mewed sarcastically, then her nose wrinkled. "Eww, why does tainted youkai blood have to smell so bad."
"Well look on the bright side."
"What bright side?"
"You look pretty sexy covered in blood."
She blushed, and crossed her arms and looked away. "S-sadistic little pervert. J-just use Wood Stamp and rinse me off. Allen would freak and have a heart attack if he saw all this blood on me."
"Fine, fine. Konbo Ban: Ame Odori no Kaze(2)." A small rain cloud appears above Kutoka and soak her thoroughly, rinsing the almost black blood off her, and making her resemble a kitten caught in the rain. I chuckle at Kutoka's pout as wind blew her dry.
"I still stink," was all she had to say. "But thank you."
"So mind telling me, or is it youkai business?"
"Lavi, you are my courtmate, so you have the right because you have been youkai business. Diablo, as well as many of my enemies will now come after Allen and Kanda."
"Why?"
"To get at me. I have killed many of their kin," I gave her a horrified look. "Don't look at me like that! It was in self defense!"
"So all of this for revenge?"
"No, sometimes they just want to kill me because hanyou flesh is sweet and tender."
"Say what?"
"And also female hanyou apparently make the best concubines, mistresses, sex slaves, or anything that has something to do with rape."
"Disgusting."
"And the old classic, hanyou are the scum and freaks of natur-."
I covered her mouth to make her stop, covering half of her face. This discussion was getting disturbing,and that last one always puts Kutoka down. "No, that last one is not true, was never true, and never will be true. Do you understand me?"
Kutoka glared and I felt something wet and rough on my hand. "Eww, why did you lick me?"
"You taste delicious. Now let's move it. Kanda is probably trying to get up and Allen is trying to keep him down."
I would have to agree with the last two, but that first one, I feel the blood rushing to my cheeks. Kutoka giggles and picks up her pace. I did the same, and soon we see the three felines in the safety of a distant alley. Neko's predictions were correct. Kanda, who still had a large gash on his left hind leg, was trying to stand up and Allen was trying to keep him still by pushing the bigger tom's chest with his head.
"Kanda, do you want to heal or not," Kutoka scolded, and reached down to pet Allen. "Good boy, you kept him here. Now stay still Kanda, this might smart a bit."
Kutoka sits on her legs as she got down to Yuu's level, cutting her finger with a claw(3) and letting a drop fall into the wound. As it lands, the scratch seals with a cauterizing visual effect, smoke rising as it closed. Kutoka picks Allen up, sitting him on her shoulder and the two other toms follow.
"Now that Diablo is dealt with, let's go have fun."
Taking my hand, Kutoka leads me back to the festival, where the villagers were dancing with partners as a band consisting of 4 violins, 2 guitars, a drum, and a singing trio played beautiful music.
"Ya know, we don't have to go back to the Order just yet."
"You have a plan?"
"Follow me." Kutoka walks up to one of the violinists, whispering in his ear. The man stops playing and hands her the string instrument. The others paused as Kutoka sets the violin on her right shoulder(4) and the bow in her left and begins to play, the band joining her. (AN: You might want to play this: www . youtube watch?v= HwUhKDN - Z0o minus the spaces if you want to hear it.)
Roll with the Wind - Alexander Rybak
I won't blame the hurting on you,
You left in the sweetest way.
I won't say that it's you,
making me feel this way.
It's the heart and the soul,
And the body and the brain...
Driving me insane.
But the wind and the land
And the fire and the rain...
Always stay the same!
Neko bends back as she reaches the note and snaps back in a spin with her right foot hovering above the ground, her knees slightly bent and Allen weaved between her feet as she stepped gracefully.
Ai, ai, ai!
Wanna roll with the wind
Bringin' distance to everything?
Kutoka pauses her playing, holding both violin and bow in her right hand and spins as she stepped lightly like a ballerina at the dance recital of her life. A large grin danced on her lips as she enjoyed herself.
Ai, ai, ai! Woohoo!
Ai, ai, ai! Wanna sit by the fire,
And glance at the pouring rain?
Ai, ai, ai! Ai, ai, ai!
Soon small children joined her and danced, jumped and laughed all around her, obviously having as much fun as she.
I won't claim it's all 'cause of you...
I guess that I played a part.
It's just...
That I never knew,
I'd fall for you from the start!
There's a hole in my heart,
And a picture in a frame...
Driving me insane!
But the wind and the land
And the fire and the rain...
Always stay the same!
Now Senri has joined and weaved like Allen between the children's legs, making them giggle even more.
Ai, ai, ai!
Wanna roll with the wind
Bringin' distance to everything?
Ai, ai, ai! Woohoo!
Ai, ai, ai! Wanna sit by the fire,
And glance at the pouring rain?
Ai, ai, ai! Ai, ai, ai!
Kutoka slows her steps to a solemn manner and the music becomes slightly more quiet.
I would never blame you for the heart ache...
I would never blame you for the tears!
I blame my...
Stubborn heart, soul, body...
Every single thing around me stays the same!
No matter what!
(What, what, what, what, what...)
There's another pause in the singing, giving Kutoka enough time to call us over. "Don't just stand there. Come on over." So we did. Kanda joined Senri and Allen in dancing with the kids and Kutoka and I spun and hooked our arms together whenever Kutoka stopped playing.
Ai, ai, ai!
Wanna roll with the wind
Bringin' distance to everything?
Ai, ai, ai! Woohoo!
Ai, ai, ai! Wanna sit by the fire,
And glance at the pouring rain?
Ai, ai, ai! Ai, ai, ai!
Ai, ai, ai!
Wanna roll with the wind
Bringin' distance to everything?
Ai, ai, ai! Woohoo!
Ai, ai, ai! Wanna sit by the fire,
And glance at the pouring rain?
Ai, ai, ai! Ai, ai, ai!
*long instrumental*
After the last note, Kutoka and I take a bow. Allen jumps back on her shoulder as the people clapped and applauded loudly. One of the violinists, a blonde woman, walks up to her, asking to speak with her alone and they start talking as they walked a bit away. The woman waves the other two over, two more blonde women(5) and they all chattered away as women tend to do. I look down at Kanda, who was flicking his tail impatiently.
"I know what you mean," I said. "Women and their useless chatter."
Allen nya'd and sat between Kanda's front paws, purring quietly. Senri sits on Kanda's right an they started meowing so I guess they're having a conversation.
*Kanda POV*
I can't believe I'm saying this, but that was actually fun. I got to dance with the moyashi. What the hell!? Why do I care about Moyashi? Then again, it's probably this form. Cats get protective on what they consider theirs, prime example, Neko. Wait, since when did I consider him mine?
"Ne, Kanda?" Moyashi sat in between my legs and looked up at me. "What are you thinking about?"
"What makes you think I'm thinking, Beansprout?"
"It's Allen, and you had that distant look on your face like in Sister's room."
"Che. Nothing you need to worry about, kit."
Allen pouts and stalks off to his sister's side, and Senri sits down on my right.
"So, who's the lucky queen?"
I raised an eyebrow, er as close as a cat can get to raising an eyebrow "What the hell are you talking about?"
"Come on, you treat Allen like he was your own, so he might as well be. So who's the lucky she-cat you shagged(6)?"
I blushed under my fur, and whacked him on the head. "There is no she-cat. The little bean isn't even mine."
"Well whatever happened to that white she-cat? She seemed pretty pissed that you were hurt."
"She's protective over everyone close to her. And I thought you were unconscious when she came."
"Nah, I was awake, but barely."
"The she-cat is Kutoka. She's the hanyou."
"Wait, I'm confused. Who's the she-cat?"
I want to slap him right now so much, so I do.
"Ow, what the hell, Kanda!?"
"Did you not hear what I just said?"
"Not really."
"Let's take it from the top."
*Lenalee POV*
I wonder where Allen-kun and Kanda-kun went. And Lavi. And I'll admit I'm curious, but I'm not worried, where Kutoka went too. I hope they're okay, but I know they can take care of themselves, even as cats.
With a tray of coffee in my hands, I walked through the Science Division, handing the tired scientists their wake-up call. Many thanks and thank you's came into the air. When I got to Johnny and Reever's desks, I see they are gone. Oh well, I'll go give Nii-san his coffee and see if they're back when I leave. I opened Nii-san's office door, peering in and seeing Nii-san and the missing scientists diligently watching as Reever holds an eyedropper over a beaker. He gently squeezes the end and a drop of a clear liquid falls into the tealish blue liquid. It started bubbling and turns a bright orange yellow.
"It's working," Komui shouted, waving his arms hysterically in the air, until it blew up in their faces. All three
"Is that the antidote for Allen-kun and Kanda-kun?"
"Ah, Lenalee, my precious baby sister! How are you?" Nii-san squeezes me tight, almost making me drop the coffee.
"I'm good, just let me go or I'll drop the coffee."
Komui releases and grabs his cup, along with Johnny and Reever.
"My lovely sister, your coffee is as delicious as ever!"
"No problem, so how is the antidote going?"
"It's getting there, but we're missing something,and we can't figure it out," Reever replied, scratching the back of his head.
"But we managed to test at least half of possible chemicals that can make it work," Johnny said excitedly.
I sighed. "That's great and all but I do hope you guys figure it out soon."
Notes:
(1): Youkai term for a boyfriend/girlfriend
(2): Combo Stamp: Rain Dance Breeze
(3): I don't think I have ever mentioned this but since she is a cat, I thought it was obvious, but to make sure everyone understands, Kutoka's claws are almost always sheathed.
(4): Kutoka, like Allen, is ambidextrous but she prefers using her left hand.
(5): It's a referance to Alexander Rybak's group. There's him and then 3 BLONDE WOMEN! LOL
(6): I completely forgot about this one sorry! British slang for having sex.
Finally and today I just saw The Giver with my dad. It was awesome. People go out and watch it! And I have notice that I have been focused on the Usako (Lavi x Kutoka) pairing too much, I think. Shoud I start working on the Yullen pairing?
