Disclaimer: I don't own the Fushigi Yuugi characters, however I do own Kakeru, Takemi, Michi, Kotono, etc. So if you wanna use them, you gotta ask me.
Notes: Hi everyone! Thank you for reading my story! I figured I should try to get the next chapter of this up...I'm working on wrapping up 'Yaten Tenoh', and continuing 'Happiness' right now, so I'm kinda rushing. I also started another little Inuyasha/Miroku yaoi thing that I've got to finish before I lose interest, so if it takes me awhile to get new chapters out, I'm sorry...
Chapter 3
"Um...Excuse me..." Ryuuen said quietly, tapping Keiko on the shoulder. "Would you mind, um...well you see...my friend got in some trouble and she..."
Keiko turned around and looked surprised. Ryuuen, asking her for something?
"Would you like me to check on her?" she asked gently. Ryuuen nodded. Houjun was standing quietly behind him, with Michi. "What's her name?"
"Kotono. Nakamura Kotono." Ryuuen said, looking down. "I'm really sorry to ask you to..."
"It's alright." Keiko smiled. "You wanna take me to her room?"
Ryuuen nodded and he, Keiko, Houjun, Michi, Takemi, Kaen, Kakeru, Genrou, and Kouji set off toward Kotono's room. Soon they arrived and Keiko turned to the others.
"Please wait out here." she said. "If Kotono received standard punishment, she'll be jumpy, and a lot of people in the room will scare her."
Everyone nodded and Keiko tapped lightly on the door before entering. Once the door closed behind the blonde, Ryuuen began to panic.
"What if she's dead!?!" he wailed. "What happened to her? Is she oke? Is she gonna be alright?!?!"
"Shh." Kaen said. "I'm sure she's fine."
"Yeah, Keiko's a good patcher-up-er!" Genrou said cheerfully. "Not as good as Mitsukake, but a close seco...Mitsukake?"
"What's a 'mitsukake'?" Takemi asked, confused.
"Maybe it's related to a Seiryuu." Kaen said. "I'm still not sure where I got that word."
"Suzaku! She's taking too long!" Ryuuen wailed.
"It hasn't even been two minutes, Ryuuen." Kakeru said quietly, shy to be talking to the crossdresser who he didn't know.
"Suzaku?" Houjun said quietly.
"Hurry up no da!" Chichiri said, annoyed.
"When will we be there?!" Tasuki whined.
"We could be there by sundown if you would hurry no da!"
"SUNDOWN!?" Tasuki wailed.
"That's only if you walk like a normal person no da." Chichiri
pointed out. Tasuki sat down and proceeded to throw a tantrum.
"Why can't you just pop us over to the fuckin' town?! Why do we
gotta walk!?"
"Get UP no da!"
"N...no da?" Houjun whispered. "What the..."
Then he smiled, a phrase popping into his mind. Tasuki no baka no da. He smiled. He wondered who Tasuki was though...
"Calm down!" Genrou yelled. "Yer pacin' is makin' me dizzy!"
"Tasuki no baka no da." Houjun said without thinking. "Let Nuriko be no da. He's worried no da."
Everyone stared at him. He sweatdropped nervously.
"What?" Michi asked. Houjun blushed.
"Forget it." He said. "Just nevermind."
Nuriko? Tasuki? NO DA?! What the hell was wrong with him!? He sighed and leaned back against the hallway wall.
"Um, excuse me..." a boy said quietly. Ryuuen gasped, and Houjun fought a strange feeling of déjà vu, as did Genrou. "Do any of you know a 'Chou Ryuuen'?"
"Yeah." Ryuuen said, stunned.
"Really?" the boy smiled. "Could you tell me where to find him? He's my new roommate and..."
"Praise Suzaku!" Ryuuen cried happily. "I'm Ryuuen."
"Praise Suzaku, I'm Saihitei." The boy said with a sweatdrop. "Who's Suzaku?"
"I don't know." Ryuuen said distractedly, gazing at the taller boy. "You're so beautiful..."
"I know." Saihitei said. Michi inspected the new boy.
"This is your Hotohori?" she asked. Ryuuen nodded.
"Definitely." He said. Saihitei blinked.
"Hoto...hori?" he said. Images and sounds passed through his mind... "Miaka..."
"Miaka?" Ryuuen frowned. "Is that your girlfriend?"
"No." Saihitei said sadly. "She doesn't love me..."
"Well who does she love?" Takemi asked. Saihitei looked confused for a moment.
"I have no idea." he said.
"You Chinese people are weird." Keiko announced, coming out of the room. "You keep saying all this weird stuff, then you can't explain it. It's like you guys knew each other in some past life!"
"That's ridiculous." Genrou snorted. Ryuuen clamped onto Keiko's arm.
"Is she okay?" he asked. Keiko nodded with a smile.
"She's just fine." She said. "I cleaned her up, and now she's sleeping."
"Thank you." Houjun said quietly. Keiko winked at him.
"No problem!" she said. "I see you've met your new roomie, ne Ryuuen?"
Ryuuen went all 'sparkly'. Keiko grinned.
"I knew you'd like him." She said. Hotohori smiled at her.
"Keiko? You know Ryuuen?" he asked. Keiko nodded.
"Uh, sort of." She said. "He came into my room once. And now I helped out Kotono for him...but other than that...well, I mean, we're not really friends."
Genrou snorted.
"That's an understatement." He said. "She's barely even talked to Ryuuen."
"Oh." Saihitei said. "Well, maybe you and your friends can come visit me?"
"Sure!" Takemi, Kakeru, Kouji, Genrou, and Keiko chorused. Kaen nodded.
~ * ~
"So..." Ryuuen said.
"So..." Saihitei agreed.
"So..." Genrou added.
"So..." Kouji replied.
"So..." Kaen commented.
"So...no da..." Houjun sighed.
After having been ditched by their other friends, the small group had ended up in the near empty library. The only other person there was an eighth grader named Doukun. But none of the people in the group really knew the younger boy.
"Where did you get that no da thing?" Ryuuen asked. Houjun shrugged.
"Where did you get Suzaku no da?" he asked. "Where did Kaen get Seiryuu, where did Genrou get Mitsukake no da? I think that's where I got no da, na no da."
"Well it's getting annoying." Kouji growled.
"Tough na no da." Houjun said. Genrou smiled.
"I think I don't like you people." Kaen murmured.
"Why's that?" Saihitei asked, curious. Kaen shrugged.
"No clue." She said. "Just an odd feeling."
"Well now who's being rude?" Genrou sneered at her. She stuck her nose up.
"Least I don't glare."
Genrou opened his mouth to reply, but stopped. Doukun was quietly singing.
"...kore ga Kounan ookoku no iitsutae..." he sang as he carefully moved his brush over a paper. Elegant, ancient Chinese symbols covered the page. "Mukashi mukashi kara no iitsutae..."
"Kou...nan?" Ryuuen whispered. "Why does that...sound familiar?"
"Excuse me..." Doukun said quietly, approaching the table. Houjun smiled.
"Yes?" he asked. Doukun smiled.
"I don't suppose you...possibly..." he said shyly. "Oh, maybe, have your memories back?"
"Memories?" Saihitei raised an eyebrow. Doukun's shoulders slumped.
"You don't?" he asked. He turned to leave. "Um, I'm sorry for bothering you then."
"Kid..." Kouji said. "Doukun right? C'mere."
Doukun turned around.
"Call me Chiriko please." He said. "My friends do."
"I heard you didn't have any friends." Kaen said. Then she blushed. "Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to sound so rude..."
"It's oke." Chiriko sat down at the table the group was at. "I don't have any friends here. But my old friends used to call me Chiriko."
"Why?" Ryuuen asked, then he smiled. "Sounds like Cheerio! I'm gonna call you Cheerio. But, why did your friends call you that?"
Chiriko thought for a second. Maybe he could try to help them regain their memories! They seemed to be close.
"Oh, it was in a book. A story about a girl who gathered the seven stars of Suzaku and made her dreams come true..." he said. "The story itself is an incantation, and the girl who read it through was also granted powers like the girl in the story. Miaka was the first girl. Me and my friends pretended to be her seishi. There was Tasuki, Chichiri, Hotohori, Tamahome, Nuriko, Mitsukake, and Chiriko."
He added extra emphasis on Tasuki, Chichiri, Hotohori, and Nuriko. Genrou blinked when he heard 'Mitsukake', Ryuuen jumped slightly when he heard 'Hotohori' and 'Suzaku'. Glances were thrown around until everyone turned back to Chiriko.
"And you were Chiriko?" Kaen asked. Chiriko smiled at her.
"Yup." He said. "And the other girl was Yui. She had her own seishi as well, Nakago, Soi, Miboshi, Ashitare, Tomo, and the twins Amiboshi and Suboshi. They were the powers of..."
"Seiryuu." Genrou finished, memories flooding into his mind. "Those goddamn bastards..."
"Tasuki?" Chiriko asked hesitantly. A light breeze seemed to appear out of nowhere, surrounding Genrou. His eyes widened slightly and a soft red light began to glow around him.
