A Chibi's Playground

Chapter Three

The Day of the Boo-Boos

Chibi Trowa stared at the large, ominous cat-creature, green eyes wide. The orange tabby was hunkered under a bush, licking his sticky, purple tail which happened to be the result of an previous encounter of a certain braided chibi wonder.

He eased closer, with the stealth of a mighty hunter and the brain of a fourth grade graduate. Reaching slowly under the leafy canopy, he groped the feline with lightning reflexes. Actually, he more took a clumsy stumble forward, grabbing the cat around the midsection and falling to the grassy ground.

The cat "reowred", but made no other objects as the seven year old stood. Trowa grutned slightly, the heavy animal severly hindering his progress. He would take two steps, drop the cat, pick the cat back up, make two more steps..

"YATTA!" Chibi Hilde yelled, dashing forward to Duo and Quatre. "I've gots Silly String, I've gots Silly String!" A long, foamy blue string trailed behind him.

Quatre sighed, but laughed slightly. "Shoot him, shoot him!" he yelled, pointing at Duo, who blinked innocently.

Duo stood, stoic, ready to face the horrors of blue Silly String. Hilde was ready to pounce on her easy prey before he started belting out, "I KNOW A SONG THAT GETS ON EVERYBODY'S NERVES! EVERYBODY'S NERVES! EVERYBODY'S NERVES!"

Chibi Hilde shrieked, then turned and ran. "Eeee! Stupid song stupid SONG!"

Sally eyed the newcomer to the playground warily as she began hanging around Wufei.

Chibi Meiran crowed, grabbing the chinese boy's arm. "I wanna go to the jungle gym! Wuffie-chan, I WANNA GO TO THE JUNGLE GYM!"

Wufei looked as if he was about to cry as he wrenched himself away from her, then darted towards the slide.

Chibi Sally glared at her. "What do you think you're doing!?"

"He's my Wuffie-chan!"

"I saw 'im first!"

"But he's MY friend!"

"Nuh uh!"

"Uh huh!"

"Nuh uh!"

"Uh HUH!"

"Well.. Well, I'm gonna tell him you wanna KISS HIM!" Sally grinned, triumphant.

A panicked, partly disgusted look passed Meiran's features. "No! Eeew, that's GROSS!"

The merry jingling of the ice cream truck filled the air, and Sally and Meiran linked arm-in-arm to get fudgesicles.

The chibis Relena, Catherine, Dorothy, Noin, and Milliardo all sat in a circle, Heero walking the perimeter, a wise look on his face.

"Duck.." He tapped Relena's head.

"Duck.." He tapped Catherine's head.

"Duck.." He tapped Dorothy's head.

"... Duck," he paused, tapping Noin on the head.

".... GOOSE!"

Milliardo climbed to his feet as Heero giggled.. um.. smirked and darted around the others. The blond haired chibi tripped, falling face first in the dirt, and Heero sighed, relieved as he took his seat in the circle.

"Why do ya.. why do ya always pick me?" He frowned at Chibi Heero, accusing.

"Because you're... slow!"

"Hmph."

The nine year olds happily played in the sandbox.

Tis the end, doncha know.

A/N: Okies, got a few things to say if I do not forget 'em first. One, I know the "seven year olds in this fic are acting more like five or six year olds, but.. um.. just pretend they are... uh.. chibi seven year olds. Suuure.

Secondly, I know this one' is kinda short, but for any who actually read the later chapters in this.. I am gonna be working on my Final Fantasy VII and Tenchi Muyo chibis next.. ^^;; See ya later!
