Chapter 4: Aerith's Kissing Booth

By: Rikku24

Aerith was short on munny, no store wanted to hire her so there was nothing to do but sit and wait.

"Hey Aerith! Why don't you start a Kissing Booth, $1 a kiss," Leon suggested.

"That's a great idea!" Aerith replied and ran off looking for a booth.

Aerith returned with a pink booth, paint, and a jar.

"Help me create a banner, Leon," Aerith said.

They worked really hard for a very long time. The end result was a PINK booth with a PINK banner right outside of Cid's Shop. After everything was set up Leon went to the bank and Aerith sat on a PINK chair and waited.

She waited…and waited…and waited… and waited…and waited…and waited…and waited…and fell asleep.

"Hey! HELLO!" Riku yelled, trying to wake up Aerith.

"Oh, what where am I? Oh Yeah! Now I remember. How much do you have?" Aerith said half asleep and half putting on lipstick.

"Here's 15. Hurry up with that lipstick, will ya. I don't want Rikku24 to find me here," Riku said.

"What was that about me?" said Rikku24, stepping out of the shadows.

Riku: -_-'

"You know what? I was just looking for 15dollars. And now I found some," Rikku24 said.

She stomped towards Riku while people behind him watched. Rikku24 dragged Riku BY THE EAR out of line.

"Ouch, that hurt," said Riku, rubbing his ear.

"Give me that!" said Rikku24, pulling the $15 out of Riku's hand.

"Hey! I worked hard earning that!" exclaimed Riku.

"You should have spent it on something for me! Or something useful! NOT KISSES FROM SOMEONE YOU DON'T EVEN LIKE!" Rikku24 yelled back. Then she went off back into the shadows.

"Sheesh, a man can't even BUY kisses without his girlfriend finding out," Riku muttered to himself before following Rikku24.

"Hey Aerith!" Sora cheerfully said.

"How much?" Aerith asked.

Sora took out his wallet (so that's what that ANNOYING chain is connected too!) and gave Aerith $20.

"Wait a minute!" Leon yelled. "It's okay if strangers kiss Aerith for her looks but friends actually KNOW her and probably have more reasons to buy kisses than strangers do!" Leon yelled.

"Now Leon. Everybody knows that I'm your girlfriend and they SHOULD know that I am trying to earn MUNNY not KISSES. If I wanted kisses I'd go to you, not strangers and definitely NOT Sora!" Aerith explained to Leon.

"Still, Sora is a suspicious character…"Leon wondered out loud.

"Hey, why is everybody looking at me that way?" Sora asked while everybody stared at him accusingly. "WHAT?" Sora asked again.

Sora: -_-'

"Why are you here, Sora?" Leon asked.

"Um...Um… I don't know," Sora said, sweating and rocking on the back of his heals.

Then with a yell, Sora took out his Ultima key blade.

"That's where my key blade went," Riku said stepping out of the shadows with Rikku24 right behind him.

Riku walked up to Sora and pried the Ultima key blade out of his hands.

"Hey! Give that back!" Sora yelled.

Riku held the key blade above his head while Sora, jumping up and down, tried to grab it.

"Weakling," Riku commented before Rikku24 and him went back into the shadows.

NOTE: In case you're wondering where they are going I'll tell you. Christmas is a month away (I wrote this on 11/26/02) so Rikku24 and Riku are…CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!!!!

Sora stood there completely helpless. Leon took out his Gunblade while the complete strangers continued to buy kisses for $1 per kiss. So far Aerith made $248 and her lips were very sore. Luckily, she had plenty of lip balm and Scope.

Sora began to run but found himself cornered.

"Um… Leon? Don't you think that we can work out a compromise? I mean isn't there some saying that says that Violence is Not the Answer? Leon…are you okay?" Sora asked uneasily.

Leon was in a battle position. This did not bring happy thoughts to Sora's mind because the last time he fought Leon he got his butt kicked and when he woke up Yuffie, Aerith, Leon, Donald, and Goofy were near by. It was that battle that brought him sores and Donald and Goofy the two most ANNOYING companions a guy could have.

Sora backed up towards the wall until his back was right against the wall. Leon got closer and was about to attack Sora when a yell ripped the air.

"FIVE-HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Aerith yelled. Sora and Leon cautiously walked towards the booth. Aerith was jumping for joy. Her money jar was practically bursting do to its fullness. Leon and Sora exchanged confused and scared looks.

"Um, Aerith? You can calm down now," Leon explained to the VERY happy Aerith.

"I'M REALLY REALLY RICH, LEON!!!! HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ME TO CALM DOWN WHEN I HAVE $500 AND MORE IS COMING? Look at all the people in line," Aerith explained and exclaimed. She sat back down, gurgled some Scope, and applied lip balm. Her booth was open again and there was a line of excited people ready to buy kisses.

"I'm not done with you, Sora," Leon said in a dangerous tone.

"Um, Leon…here's the $20 I was going to spend. I have to go now," Sora said sweating and then turned to leave.

Leon grabbed his shoulder and turned Sora around so that they were facing each other.

"You're not going anywhere," Leon said.

"THIS IS NOT FAIR! YOU HAVE A WEAPON, I DON'T! YOU'RE 25 AND I'M ONLY 14! THAT'S AN 11-YEAR DIFFERENCE! THIS BATTLE IS NOT BEING FAIRLY BATTLED!" Sora yelled.

"Who said life was fair," Leon said before taking out his Gunblade.

So they fought, actually Leon fought and attacked while Sora ran around and tried to dodge attacks.

~LATER~

"Huh, where am I?" Sora said.

He was in a bed that was VERY FAMILIAR.

"Wait! NO! IT'S Déjà vu! LAST TIME I WAS HERE I ENDED UP WITH GOOFY AND DONALD FOR COMPANIONS! NOW WHAT DISNEY CHARACTERS ARE HERE? MINNIE? DAISY? HELP ME!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Sora yelled loudly.

"Calm down Sora. Leon kicked your butt so we put you in bed for rest. Now that you are awake, you can be on your way," Aerith calmly explained.

"No new companions? No Disney characters?" Sora asked.

"None," Aerith replied.

"OK," Sora said.

Then with a few farewells, Sora was on his way.

~WHERE RIKU AND RIKKU24 ARE~

"Hey Riku, how much have we spent?" Rikku24 asked.

"I don't know. I think Aerith has over $500 so we'll borrow some munny from her if we end up in debt," Riku replied.

"Good idea, but I think we over did it. This one receipt has a total of $1000. This other one says only $100. Oh well, I guess we'll find someone to borrow it from," Rikku24 said.

"Correction. SORA is going to need to find someone to borrow munny from. This is his credit card," Riku replied.

They both walked down the road laughing and trying to hold a bunch of bags and boxes.
