Part 4
"Excuse us."
"Tohru. Are you ready to get this party started." Uo-chan asked as she entered through the sliding door. "So what do you think of our costumes?"
"I love them." Tohru said as she started giggling uncontrollably. "Who's idea was it?"
"Hana-chan thought of it. If we can't be our selves why not each other."
Uo-chan was dressed in a flowing black dress and black hat over a wavy black wig. Hana-chan was dressed in Uo-chan's school uniform and a sandy blonde wig.
"Let's give the boy's their costumes I can't wait to see their faces. Yo Prince, Orange-head Where are you?" Uo-chan yelled up the stairs.
Yuki and Kyo trotted down the stairs and stopped dead when they spotted the three girls.
"What the…?" Kyo stopped before he offended any of them. "Do you guys need something?"
"Yes you guys to go put these on." Uo-chan grabbed the packages with there names on them of the stack Tohru had made on the table. "No arguments just put 'em on."
"Tohru walked over to Shigure's study door and knocked lightly. "Shigure-san, can you please come out now?" Tohru said as she opened the door.
"Oh my god are you all right Shigure-san. Do you need me to call Hatori?"
Shigure was sprawled across his desk covered in bruises and bandages. He looked up at Tohru's concerned face and replied "No I'm fine. I just misjudged their strength…Urr I mean the strength of the wind it made me fall down. I'm really fine."
"If your sure. My friends are here and we wanted to give you the costume we made for you." Tohru took the last package off the table and handed it to Shigure. "We hope you all like them. We worked so hard to have them ready by tonight."
Just then Momiji hopped down the stairs in the lemon yellow bunny suit with the bright purple tummy and ears. The three other Souma's stared in horror at the costume.
"Isn't it the greatest?" Momiji beamed. "I can't wait to see you in your costumes."
"Rabbit? Who's idea was that?" Shigure glanced suspiciously at Tohru.
"Hana and Uo-chan picked out all the costumes. I just helped sew." Tohru replied defensively.
"Damn why'd the rabbit get the yellow?" Kyo started praying for the lime colored costume.
"Looks good on you, Momiji. Almost like you were meant to be a rabbit." Shigure said.
"Go upstairs and try on yours and that way we'll see if yours fits you as good as mine does." Momiji smiled a faintly knowing smile.
Obediently they all went to try on their costumes. Momiji started giggling as he watched them head up the stairs with as much enthusiasm as if he'd suggested the go hang themselves. A few moments later the first moan was heard followed quickly by the first shriek of denial.
"No way. You can't make me not even if you paid me." Kyo yelled. "It's hot pink. I refuse to be a pink cat."
Yuki slammed open Kyo's door. "If I have to be a green mouse. You will be a pink cat."
"I said no you damn mouse. Nothing will make me put on that thing."
Kyo never even saw the kick coming he was too busy staring in horror at the pink and green ears.
When he came to he was already dressed and Yuki was dragging him down the stairs.
Shigure looked depressed as he stared at the belly on the front of the dog suit. "Why'd they give me a yellow belly? I'm not a coward." Shigure left his room still frowning. He stopped dead as soon as he saw the expression on Yuki's face.
"You are going to pay for this." Yuki's serious face peeked out of the gaudy hood. "Earlier was just a warm up exercise."
They could hear Momiji laughing with Hana and Uo-chan.
"Momiji knew that's why he was laughing at us." Kyo said. "The least he could have done was warn us. Let's make rabbit stew for dinner."
