The Bishonen of February

Chapter 1

-Disclaimer: I do not own Nuriko, Hotohori, and Duo (although I wish I did) the only thing I own is my own character.

Background: This story takes place in the bishonen world. Bishonen translates to `beautiful boy', so basically it's a good-looking guy. Think Pokemon but with good-looking anime guys instead of pokemon. They're bishonen. They have attacks, gyms and battles but they're like people also. So let the story begin!

~~

A soft echo rippled through a large room as a young girl threw away a piece of paper from a calendar.

"Geez, January went by fast." She breathed out and walked over to the eggs she was currently cooking and smiled. A handsome longhaired man walked in and grinned at his bishonen trainer cooking. His mind wandered to the many years ago that she caught him.

~~ Flash Back ~~

He had been roaming through the forest when it began to rain. A crashing bolt of lightning stuck a tree near him and soon a fire was blazing. He tried to escape but was stopped by a pack of wolves, he knew the forest was dangerous. One wolf lunged at him, sinking his teeth into his leg. As sharp pains surged through his leg a voice called through the forest and a young girl appeared. She pulled out a bishonen ball and a man with purple hair appeared in front of him. His name was Nuriko. Nuriko quickly began to fight the wolves as they lunged at him as the girl ran over to Hotohori and helped him up, wrapping his wound.

Soon he woke up in a small apartment, looking around he saw the girl. She told him her name was Kina and that she knew it was a funny name but it suited her well. Kina handed him a piece of dark food she called chocolate, and oh it tasted so good. She gave him a high five and told him they where now `friends'. Kina offered him the choice of staying with her as her bishonen or for him to go back on his own as she found him. And of course she'd give him food and send him off properly. But Hotohori decided to stay with Kina and Nuriko. That was when his life changed, for the better that is.

~~ End of Flash Back ~~

"Are you going out to get February today?" Hotohori asked Kina, his mind back to reality.

"Yeah! I was late getting January to leave so I better get February fast!"

"In my opinion, I didn't like January. He wasn't beautiful enough and he was kind of dull. His looks didn't even compare to mine!" Hotohori tossed his hair back, smiling gallantly.

A giggle erupted from Nuriko and Kina as Nuriko walked into the kitchen. Nuriko grabbed an orange and began tossing it up and down.

"Breakfast is ready!" Kina grinned, serving the burnt eggs.

"We're suppose to eat that?"

"Yeah! Enjoy! Look, it's happy to see you!" Kina set down a piece of bacon on the three plates so that the two eggs were eyes and the bacon was a mouth. Nuriko and Hotohori rolled their eyes in unison and sat down to eat. Kina quickly gulped down her meal and smiled, brushing some of her dark, red-brown hair behind her ear. A doorbell rang as she stood up and a few minutes later she walked into the kitchen with a bouquet of daisies and various flowers.

"Who's that from?" Hotohori asked as Kina put the flowers in a vase full of water and set them on the kitchen table.

"I sent them to myself." Kina laughed while Nuriko and Hotohori soon joined in on the laughter.

"You send yourself flowers every month! You're so weird." Nuriko rolled his eyes.

"Hey, it keeps the house smelling good and looking lovely. And I'd rather smell the flowers than your sweat! Now I've got to get going. Don't cause too much trouble you two!"

"We won't!" The two bishonen smiled mischievously.

They both loved living with Kina, she didn't make them do anything they didn't want to do and she kept them safe. If she hadn't have `caught' them, then they would be vulnerable to be caught by others. Once Nuriko heard that a Duo had broken a rib because his master glomped him too hard! She didn't make them train but they did willingly and they battled at a training center. But they liked the more peaceful life. Don't get me wrong, they do love the heat of battle. So the two bishonen and trainer live together by simple rules. She provides them with shelter and keeps them from other trainers trying to catch them (because they are already caught by Kina). They help around the house with stuff like cooking and cleaning and they both work to provide money and they help take care of her. Nuriko and Hotohori both work at a local training center and they help train other bishonen by battling with them.

The door closed gently behind her as Kina walked down the apartment stairway and out onto the bustling street. She quickly wrapped a colorful scarf around her neck and let it drape down her shoulders. She was wearing a pair of long bellbottom khaki pants with a navy blue short sleeve T-shirt. In the center of the shirt there was a picture of a dark pink heart with a pair of pearl white angel wings coming out of the heart. Under the T-shirt was a long sleeved white shirt so that the long sleeves stuck out from under the navy T-shirt and a bit at the bottom. She had a silver chain bracelet that held on her two silver and black bishonen balls (Nuriko's and Hotohori's). She had navy blue sandals on with stripped toe socks that where blue, green, yellow and red but her pants covered most of the socks. Naturally, her scarf was around her neck as always and her dark red-brown hair was waving freely in the wind. Some of her hair was cut short in the front, giving her some strands of
hair that flew in her face. She had blue eyes that looked like sapphires and they always seemed to be smiling or sparkling somehow. A few freckles dotted her cheeks.

Kina began to skip down the street, letting her feet take her wherever they pleased. She smiled and waved to various people she knew, shouting "Hello's" and "How are you?" A little boy ran up and hugged Kina around her waist.

"Hey Mikey!" She patted his head, "Wuzzzup?"

"Nothin'! Is Nuriko or Hotohori home? I want to challenge them again! I've only lost like twenty seven times! The twenty eight time's a charm!"

The boy grinned, waving his bishonen ball around that held a Chibi Duo inside.

"They're inside the house. How goes the foster home?" Kina poked his shoulder, leaning down so they where face to face.

"It's alright. Better than the last one! See you later!" He ran off, heading toward Kina's apartment to see Nuriko and Hotohori. Kina carried a small picnic basket with some mouth-watering food inside as she entered the forest. She didn't find any suitable bishonen in the town and almost all of the bishonen in town where already caught by someone.
