Chapter 2

Note: Everyone is grown up in this fic, even Tsuwabuki. Tsuwabuki is simply
naïve.

After Kanae's 'little talk' with Tsuwabuki, the shadow girls left and Touga
broke out several cases of liquor. This, by its very nature, started a wild
party that lasted quite late into the night.

**********

The next morning

Mikage woke up to an intense headache and someone's hand in his face. The
hand was a woman's, and gripping a can of whipped cream. He rolled over just
in time for Utena to wake up, and nearby a similar thing was occurring with
Mamiya and Anthy.

On another level of the bus, Akio and Touga woke up, looked at each other,
blinked, and looked at each other again. The same thing happened with Wakaba
and Saionji, except that Wakaba was holding a whip. Nanami woke up to see
Tsuwabuki, Juri saw Miki when she opened her eyes, and Shiori and Kozue
found themselves thoroughly startled. Aiko and Yuuko winced at the light
before noticing each other, as did Kanae and Keiko.

The startled shrieks echoed for miles around.

Suddenly that one bus was a flurry of motion as people grabbed their
clothes and rushed for various bathrooms within the enormous bus. Luckily,
both buses were large inside than out, so there were plenty of bathrooms to
go around. Various sticky toppings were washed off, whip lash marks were
cared for, and in one case something that looked like it came from a lock
pick was carefully bandaged. Breakfast was a very red-faced business, and
nobody looked at anyone else, not even to mention how quickly their
hangovers had gone away. Many people's mouths tasted strongly of toppings,
so breakfast didn't taste as good as usual.

"So.lovely weather this morning, isn't it?"

Everyone looked at Anthy blankly.

Nodding, Keiko laughed self-consciously. "Yeah. It's really nice out."

"Yeah."

The rest of the meal was conducted in silence. People only got up the
courage to talk to each other again after nearly three hours.

~~End of Chapter 2~~

Maa, I know, the chapters are shorter...*snickers* I'm such an evil child,
to do that to them...
