Raiha's Clothes Part 3
By: Dueyoso

Disclaimer: I don't own Flame of Recca but you already knew that! Tare Panda is cute but I don't own it either... damn I'm just out of luck!

AN: This is the 3rd and final chapter of Raiha's Clothes! I hope that everyone had enjoyed ready my rambling insanity of a fic! It's been a bit of a trip writing this and I hope it was just as enjoyable to read! Any comments or criticism are welcome to help me in improving my future fics... also I am thinking about doing an epilogue to this fic which would basically be the ninja movie written out. If anyone has any ideas they'd like to send on that I'd most appreciate it! (but please don't count on it ^^;;)

::The lights dim and the audience is hushed. The sound of footsteps can be heard in the front as well as a flap of the large red curtains. Any moment now... and FLASH!!!! A spotlight hits our director Yanagi who's looking like she stole some referee clothes from the UBS...::

Yanagi: Welcome Minna-san!!! Is everyone excited!!? ::Yanagi giggles:: I know I am!

::In the front row Recca can be seen drooling::

Yanagi: Recca, down boy. ::pause:: WELL! Now that that's settled should we get on with our show tonight?

::the audience cheers::

Yanagi: Then it is my please to announce the premiere showing of Flame Man: The Mo...

::blackout::

Voice A: To protect the world from devastation

Voice B: To unite all peoples within our nation

Voice A: To denounce the evils of truth and love

Voice B: I LOVE YOU TOKIYA!!!!!!!!!!

::spotlight on Neon and Kaoru::

Neon: Kaoru! We were supposed to do the team rocket modo!!!

Kaoru: Hehe... you said love! Hehe... I love Tokiya! ::he dances around in a circle::

Yanagi: oh gods! NOT you two... We've had enough problems with you're freaking cameras! ::smoke is seen coming out of Yanagi's ears::

Just about then Recca hops on stage and throws a sack over Yanagi.

Recca: I'm sorry everyone!! If you'll please excuse us the host is having some... um... emotional issues so Fuuko wi... ::he gets cut off::

Fuuko: (from backstage) FUUKO-CHAN!

Recca: yes erm, Fuuko-chan will be taking over for you tonight!! ::broad smile:: Ja ne! ::Recca runs offstage::

Fuuko: Ohayo Minna-san!!

Kaoru: Fuuko its well past five in the afternoon...

Fuuko: as if I care yaoi bunny...

Neon: did she just call you a yaoi bunny?

Kaoru: um I think so.

::Kaoru and Neon sweatdrop::

Fuuko: So we'll start the movie now!

Neon: no we won't! Kaoru, the honors please!

Kaoru: of course! ::Kaoru turns kitty and runs backstage to return pulling a large box of some kind with him::

Neon: Good kitty! Now! The deal...

Fuuko: I haven't heard about any deal...

Neon: of course you haven't, it is mine and Kaoru's ingenious plan on how to earn money from this movie.

Fuuko: it's a student made film, trust me you won't be getting much.

Neon: oh but we will my dear!

Fuuko: fine, but do you mind sharing?

Kaoru: its our money! ::sticks out tongue:: bleh!

Neon: And now, Kaoru please reveal "the plan".

Kaoru: HAI!!!! ::he jumps around untying various string and with one great tug the cloth covering the box comes free to reveal...

Fuuko: um Neon... it's a box.

Neon: Kaoru! open "the box" already!

Kaoru: (grumbling) They expect me to know these things...

Ripping open the cardboard Kaoru stepped back to reveal rows and rows of Tare Panda flavored Pocky. And we wait as the audience has a general sweatdrop...

Raiha: TARE PANDA!!!

Fuuko: Down Rai-chan... and what does this have to do with our movie?

::Neon cackles evilly::

Neon: Well you see, while you were all busy with the announcer stuff I went backstage and stole the only existing copy of Flame Man: The Movie. So in plain engrish* if we don't sell all this pocky we'll ruin the tape.

::Raiha waves his hand wildly::

Raiha: oo! oo! I'll buy some!!!

Neon&Kaoru: We know Raiha, we know.

Raiha looks miffed but stays silent.

Neon: So! We will begin selling it at 200 yen a box!

Around the theatre various hands shoot up with yen bills offering to buy a box.

Fuuko: HOLD IT!!! Is this legal?

Kaoru: probably not... but is anything Uruha does legal?

Neon: well said yaoi bunny! now help me...

Kaoru: ::groans:: not you too...

Raiha: ano... can I have some pocky yet?

Neon: no! We need to sell it to everyone else before you hoard it all!

Raiha: but... ::Raiha reaches out for a box of pocky::

Neon: I said no! ::ignores Raiha and continues to sell::

Raiha continues reaching for the Tare panda pocky getting every closer until he decides 'to hell with this' and lungs for the box currently in Neon's hand.

Results: happy Raiha

Neon: get off of me NOW Raiha!!!!

Raiha: oishi! I want more! ::Raiha gleefully scoops up an armful of the panda pocky and hands Kaoru a few yen bills::

Kaoru: arigatou!

Raiha happy as can be, goes back to his seat with his prize and begins to munch. Meanwhile, Neon is still not happy.

Neon: RAIHA!!!! You idiot you weren't supposed to... ::CRUNCH::

Looking down Neon saw the remains of what was once the only existing copy of Flame Man: The Movie. She had failed to realize that Raiha's mad dive for pocky had caused her to drop the tape.

Kaoru: you actually broke the tape!!! Yanagi's gonna have a fit!

Neon: um... oops.

::general glare from the audience::

Neon: We were never actually going to break it! ::she nervously began to back away from the enraged crowd:: And it wasn't my fault! It was his! ::points to Raiha::

Fuuko: no Raiha's too kawaii! ::audience nods in agreement causing Raiha to blush::

Neon: um... I gotta go! I'll see you guys some other time ok?

Kaoru: NOOOO!!!! Don't leave me here alone with them!

Neon: (already running) Then hurry up!

Kaoru quickly dashes off after Neon leaving behind the theatre.

Fuuko: well despite the fact that Yanagi is going to slaughter us all, I hope you enjoyed the evening! This concludes our little film festival and I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience! Bai bai!

Fuuko bowed to the crowd before pocketing the remaining boxes of pocky left behind, and exiting the stage. She followed the slow and somewhat confused crowd outside and turned to head home only to be stopped by a gentle hand on her shoulder.

Raiha: Fuuko-sama?" Fuuko turned around to regard him.

Fuuko: hai?

Raiha: Ano... I'm sorry about the movie." Fuuko smiled at the blushing ninja.

Fuuko: No worries! It's fine with me, its Yanagi I'm worried about." Raiha nodded in silent agreement.

Raiha: Well, I best get back to my mansion. See you around, I guess." He smiled just a little and waved before turning to head home.

Fuuko: Rai-chan! Wait!" She ran to catch up with him. "I have all this extra Tare Panda pocky... um do you want it?

Raiha: sure! but my hands are kinda full..." he looked down at the overflowing armload of pocky he was already carrying.

Fuuko: No worries! I'll come with you and drop it off!" she smiled as they started to walk.

Raiha: Thanks...

Fuuko: not a problem! I didn't really have anything planned tonight aside from the movie showing and well, that got cancelled as you well know. I'll probably just get online and chat when I get home anyways..." Fuuko slowly trailed off leaving them to walk in silence the rest of the way to Raiha's mansion.

At the gate the guards bowed them in and Fuuko continued to follow Raiha into the room where she'd first discovered his Tare Panda obsession. They both dumped their armfuls of pocky onto the couch before crashing on it themselves.

Fuuko: mou... I'm exhausted! What time is it anyway?

Raiha: almost ten.

Fuuko: geez... it's a bit of a trek to get out here isn't it?" Raiha nodded.

Raiha: want me to call you a cab?

Fuuko: nah, I'll just walk. " Slowly she stood up and Raiha did so as well leading her politely to the door. "Well I guess I'll see you soon. I'm sure Yanagi's going to be having a 'get-together' so to speak.

Raiha: yah..." Raiha nodded sadly.

Fuuko: See you soon then Rai-chan! "she turned to leave...

Raiha: Fuuko-sama... um... I thought the movie was fun." Fuuko smiled slightly still heading to leave.

Fuuko: me too.

Raiha: Do you think we can make another movie?" Fuuko looked at him a moment before turning around to face him.

Fuuko: possibly. why?

Raiha: I like making movies with you!" Raiha immediately blushed after saying so and looked down.

Fuuko: um... thanks I guess Rai-chan." Raiha turns and bangs his head on the nearest wall.

Raiha: This is coming out all wrong..." Fuuko waited patiently for him to continue. "What I MEANT was I like spending time with you. Just you. Not Yanagi or Kaoru or even Kurei. So I guess... I was wondering if you want to go see a different movie sometime that hopefully won't fail like tonight did." Fuuko didn't know what to say, for once.

Fuuko: ... sure...

Raiha: So its a date then?" Raiha smiled happily.

Fuuko:: d...d...date!?" Doesn't seem like she's been on one of those. Raiha nodded.

Raiha: un!

Fuuko: well... why?

Raiha: because... ::blush:: I like you, yah know, like 'like' you, like you.

Fuuko: ho... honto?

Raiha: yea! so what do you say?

Fuuko! I love too... as long as we're not going to see some weird Tare Panda movie!" Fuuko joked.

Raiha: hey! what's wrong with Tare Panda?!" Fuuko rolled her eyes.

Fuuko: nothings wrong with the yaoi bear...

Raiha: it's NOT a yaoi bear!!!

Fuuko: whatever." she smiled. "See you tomorrow then?

Raiha: of course! is five good?

Fuuko: perfect.

Raiha: great! oyasumi Fuuko-sama!" he smiled and ruffled her hair lightly.

Fuuko: oyasumi Rai-chan.

And this time when she jumped up to give him a quick kiss it landed on his lips. Blushing more than ever Fuuko darted out the door and turned back a little down the path to wave.
