Lalala, I'm back. Although I feel very insecure, I only got one review, but I'll press on!! *valiant look* Erm, yeah, I know I'm pathetic. Niko be in. When I was writing this I was listening to Suboshi's romantic/battle song. It's so cool; it's got this really upbeat rhythm!

(Kimi ga ore no destiny! (You are my destiny!)
Kakatte koi yo Hey! Now!
Nozomi doori ni katatsukete yaru!
GUZUGUZU suru na Hey! You!
KIREtara saigo tomari wa shinai!

Kanojo no kokoro wo ZUTAZUTA ni shita
YATSU wa kono ore ga yurusanai!)

"Look, guys, I don't think that fighting is a good idea! You'll destroy Discipline, and we'll get in trouble," Daja protested.
Suboshi sighed, thinking of Yui, and put down his weapon. Tasuki proved a more difficult problem. It was not until Niko threw open the doors of Discipline and put out the fires that he stopped.
By this point everyone else was hiding behind objects for safety.
Sandry crouched behind her loom, shaking. That man was insane! Then she felt a comforting hand on her shoulder, which stopped her quivering. She turned to see Mitsukake looking reassuring.
"Don't worry Sandry, he has fits. He's rather a big baby," the healer smiled
She smiled back gratefully.
"Now, what is this?" he gestured at her loom, "How does it work? Will you show me, Lady Sandry?"
Suboshi narrowed his eyes. "Shouldn't that be Sandry-sama?" Then, remembering KoK and his relationship with Yui, his eyes unnarrowed quickly. "I mean, Freaky Grass-Hair Man, do whatever you want!!" He gave Mitsukake a fake cheesy grin. Mitsukake rolled his eyes while Sandry started laughing.
"Freaky Grass-Hair Man? Where did you come up with that one, Shun?" Amiboshi questioned.
"Well he is!! His hair looks like grass growing, and he's too tall, and he just _stands_ there!! He's a freaky grass-haired man, I tell you!"
Mitsukake glowered, but Sandry began showing him how to weave and soon he was back to him normal placid state.
Meanwhile, Tatara and Briar were turning Discipline into a greenhouse, despite Niko's protests.
"Stop at once, Briar!"
"Seed!!" Tatara retorted, grinning hugely.
"Aw, Niko, we're havin' _fun_! I ain't - I'm not bored anymore! This is cool!"
"It may be, but look at Discipline!"
"It looks great!" Briar replied.
At that moment Rosethorn came in, arguing with Crane. However, she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw the cottage.
"WOW!! Briar, it looks _fantastic_! How did you do that?!"
Niko buried his head in his hands. "What'd I do to deserve this?"
Briar ignored him and went to beat up Tokaki for looking at Tris.
"Cut it out, you!" he ordered. Then Tatara whispered something to him, grinning. "Oh, yeah!! Let's do it!" Briar agreed readily. With that, they both began to coat Tokaki in vines. Soon he was a big leafy plant-life thing.
"Now who's grass-hair, eh?" Mitsukake called to Suboshi. Suboshi grinned.
"You still are! He's leaf-hair. And aniki is moss-hair!"
"Hey!" said Amiboshi. "Moss-hair?"
"Sure, your hair is green!"
"So's yours, we look the same!"
"So I'm lichen-hair," Suboshi seemed unconcerned.
Tasuki and Daja, at the moment, discovered that they were both pyromaniacal. While Daja learned about Tasuki's fan, Tasuki learned about Daja's firepower. Daja handed him some of her gold-wire, and he stowed it somewhere about his person.
"Gotta put it somewhere Tama-baby can't find it."
"Tama-baby?"
"Oh yeah, Tamahome. He's a ****in' miser. Takes anything he can find and sells it."
Then Briar walked up. "I didn't know anybody else knew that word. I thought I was the only one. I can swear in 5 different languages." He inspected his fingernails smugly, using his knifepoint to remove some dirt.
Tasuki looked startled. And envious, as he surveyed Briar's Asian hand carved ivory-handled (and probably stolen) knife. Finally he said: "I'm gonna steal that."
"Oh yeah? I'm a rat-thief, so I'm lower than you."
Tasuki made fish faces. "Well, well, KUSO!!!"
Briar looked taken aback. "What language is that?"
"My language, knife boy!"
"Fang boy!"
"Rat boy!"
"Oh, gods! You two are such immature idiots!" Daja exclaimed.
They both looked crestfallen. They made fish faces. Daja raised an eyebrow.
"Grow up, you two."
The two rivals started crying on each other's shoulders. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
Daja wandered away. Then Tasuki said: "Well, she gave me some of her fire-wire."
Briar snorted. "Gold-wire."
"Gold?! That would set Tama-baby drooling, that would."
"Anyway, Daja's mine."
"I thought ya had Tris?"
"Well, they're both mine!"
"Oh fer Suzaku's sake, ya ain't the emperor! No harem for you, rat boy."
"I didn't say -" Briar's face grew red.
"DAHA-HA-HA!"
"Whaaaaat?"
"Donna kurayami datte jumon hitotsu de daha-ha-ha," Tasuki explained.
"I don't get it," Briar scratched his head.
"TASUKI!!" bellowed KoK from her authoress clouds, "QUIT SINGING THY THEME SONG!! Oh, and for the readers, he said: "With one incantation, all darkness is destroyed-ha-ha". Yeah, sorry, guys, I shall try to control him."
"YOU BETTER!!" shrieked the readers, who were rather sick of hearing Tasuki sing, since it sounded weird weird weird.
KoK cowered. "Okay, okay, thou shalt not hear him any longer!"
Tasuki looked annoyed and started singing 'Setsunakutemo...Zutto'. "KIMI no namida no saki ni egao ga aru nara, tanomoshii YATSU no mama mimamotte iyou!"
"SHUT UP!!"
"Well, actually, his voice is good for that one," Daja remarked.
"Woohoo! Score! She complimented me!"
Briar fumed.
"Well, you can't say we're still bored," Tris remarked from the door, where Tomite and Hikitsu were teaching her how to make arrows, snakes, and walls out of ice, and looking around at Sandry and Mitsukake weaving, Suboshi playing with his yo-yos, Amiboshi courting Daja with the flute (and she was actually enjoying it too!), Briar and Tasuki arguing, while Tatara, Rosethorn, and Crane talked, Tokaki was slapped every so often, and Niko banging his head repeatedly against one of Discipline's walls.

TBC.........

Preview from next chapter:
Amiboshi played a soft lilting tune on his flute, his fingers flying up and down the length as the lovely melody rang out.
Daja smiled at him. "Amiboshi, that's so pretty!"
"Thank you. Daja, I've only known you for a short time, but I -"
"Yes?"
But what Amiboshi was about to say was forestalled by the appearance of his double - and this was not Suboshi.
"Lady Daja, I protest my love for you!"
"K-Kai-Ka?"
"You were expecting someone else, Ami?"
"But - you - me - I -"
"Quit stuttering. You know we're two different people!" Kai-Ka gave Amiboshi a stern fooling kind of look.
Daja looked back and forth between the two boys who were exactly the same. Suboshi looked over as well.
"Oh, no! It's them. I refuse to take sides!!! Have fun, aniki!" he called.
Amiboshi glared and then looked helplessly back at Kai-Ka, as his mirror image crossed his arms and pulled out an identical flute.

Again, TBC.........
