Chapter IV: Dude Looks Like a Lady

Disclaimer: I do not own Fushigi Yuugi, or the song "Dude Looks Like a Lady", and many other things that will or might appear in this fic. And remember I am not making any profit from this fic so suing me would be all of the following: vain, hollow, barren, fruitless, delusive, ineffective, frivolous, petty, bootless, trivial, trifling, and minor which all really mean futile. All you would gain by making a futile decision such as suing me would be a whack on the head for being so stupid. Well unto the fic…

Everyone stared as Tamahome gained a red aura and his…her symbol began to glow. Tasuki tried to make a run for it, but it was too late. "Itai…." Tamahome smirked and dusted off her hands as she walked back to Miaka.

"I hope he… Tasuki isn't hurt too badly. No da." Tasuki twitched slightly.

"Well at least appears she's alive." Nuriko cheerfully inserted.

"Noo!! My poor Tasuki-kun!!" The still unnamed girl now guy ran over to Tasuki, and …glomped her. Tasuki's eyes budged out for two good reasons, one if one has just been attacked by Tamahome having your guts squeezed out is pretty painful, and two she was being suffocated. Also for another not as good reason, s/he was being glomped.

"Um, miss, I mean mister, I think you're hurting Tasuki." The man looked at Chiriko with wide brown eyes, almost everyone sweatdropped.

"But I would never hurt my Tasuki-kun." He stated loosening his grip on Tasuki who gasped in oxygen.

"I know, I'll heal Tasuki." Everyone's eyes turned to the speaker and 0_o reacted much like before, and quickly looked away.

"Yea, Mitsukake that's a good idea." Said Miaka whose face was a shade of blue. Mits blinked, slightly puzzled by everyone's reaction. She went over to Tasuki's side, and raised her hand. Tasuki glanced at Mitsukake, and blinked, looked, blinked, looked, blinked, looked, and just closed her eyes. Mits silently healed Tasuki while the young man eagerly watched.

"Arigato Mits-chan." Mitsukake sweatdropped. Tasuki raised her eyebrow. Tamahome and Miaka were back to softly saying each other's names. Chiriko cocked her head. Nuriko had hinged herself on to Hotohori's arm. The young man laughed nervously. "Gomen."

Tasuki sat up. "Soo, w'at the hell is going on 'ere?" She looked expectantly at Chiriko with her amber eyes. Chiriko blinked.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm just a little boy………oh no I'm a girl!!! What's going on!?" Runs around in a circle screaming flailing her arms.

"Fuck… Ya think he 'ad it timed or something, just t' annoy us." stated Tasuki as she slumped. The young man poked Tasuki. "W'at?"

"Go comfort him…her, after all she thinks of you as a big" the man couldn't help but snicker slightly "sister." Tasuki narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth to retort but was poked again. "Go." The queen of bandits angrily rose and went after the shrieking child. The man grin smugly.

"So what are we going to do now?" Hotohori asked as she tried to unhinge Nuriko from her arm, with little success.

"Well, it appears that our powers are intact. No da." said the priestess (? would a female monk would be a nun or a priestess) as she noted that Nuriko still had her incredible strength.

"That would be the only good news, or perhaps bad news." Hoto-kun added as he continued to struggle with Nuriko.

In the background:

"Come back 'ere!!!"

"Wahhhh!!!!"

"Stop runnin' dammit!!!"

"Wahhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

"Errrrr!!! Rekka Shinnen!!! ….fuck.…"

Back to normalground:

Everyone sweatdropped. Tasuki returned dragging a slightly over roasted Chiriko. "Are all right Chiriko? No da?"

"@_@"

"Tasuki-kun you fried Chiriko! How could you?" Yelled the young man as he whacked Tasuki on the head over and over again.

"Argg!! Fuck!!! Stop that!!!!" shouted Tasuki as she tried to shield herself.

Mits could you heal him?" inquired the man as he momentarily stopped pounding Tasuki. Mitsukake nodded and went over to Chiriko.

"@_@" Mits sweatdropped and raised her hand over Chirko's limp body.

"Ugggg…what happened?"

"Yay!! Chiriko you're healed!!!" Chiriko blinked looking puzzled.

"Hey Tamahome, Miaka git a room!!!" Miaka blushed. Tamahome slowly turned to glare at Tasuki, she cracked her knuckles.

Tasuki appeared slightly nervous until she realized something. "Ha! Yer not allowed t' 'ert wimen!!" Tamahome narrowed her eyes.

"Wait, sine Tama-baby is a girl now she should be able to harm other females now." Nuriko said with an evil grin.

"Thanks Nuriko." Tamahome remarked as she slowly approached a pale Tasuki. Nuriko winked.

"Your welcome."

"Damn ya, Nuriko!!!!"

"EVERYONE FREEZE!!!!!" Tamahome inches away from Tasuki turned to look at speaker. Tasuki took the moment to creep away. Chiriko rubbed his ears. Mitsukake stopped trying to persuade Tama off the tree she had escaped to from when Mits had tried to get her from Chichiri's shoulder.

"No da?" Nuriko loosened her hold on Hotohori who quickly used the distraction to join Tasuki in hiding. Miaka's stomach grumbled.

"Thank you." Sighed the young man. "Now lets stop fighting, and figure out what in the world to do, before anything else happens.

I know it took a while for me to update but it isn't my fault…well I guess it is partly. You see my dad is convinced that the computer is an evil brainwashing thing and anime is a Japanese weapon to make innocent children turn their backs on America and join the Japan army…don't ask. Well that's all for now, I think next chapter the Seiyruu will enter…hmmm…. I just have to figure out if I want the mysterious magical fog to visit them too, or have them make fun of poor Suzaku. Please R&R.
