Chapter 13
"You're not in a healthy condition," Hotohori was saying to Katie who was laying in bed with her cheeks flustered.
"But I can't go back now," Katie whined. "Bad things will happen, and Yui will come down to Seyiru and my Tamahome will be taken away from me and WAHHH!!"
"Calm yourself, Katie.sama," Hotohori said as everyone was gathered around her bed. Kristin and Caitlin both had wide grins on their faces while Tamahome and Nuriko seemed deathly concerned. Hotohori was trying to cope with the problem in his Emperorly way.
"But everything will go wrong if I go away," Katie moaned. "I won't come back in two months! Time is different here than back in my world, Hotohori!"
"Call him 'Your Highness'!" Kristin cried, infuriated at Katie's child-like ways. She was too much like Miaka. Just too much. And already they had heard her and Tamahome exchange names far more than normal. On Caitlin's check list, Katie was ahead with 72 while Tamahome had said her name 51 times.
"It's more than Miaka said with Tamahome," Caitlin announced to Kristin earlier that day. This was before Tamahome had gone out to the market place and tried to sell some gum that Katie had given him. Nuriko had not tagged along, rather, he had stayed by the side of Kristin, making sure that she would not get near Hotohori. Kristin had tried to talk to Nuriko about it, and almost wanted to spill the secret of him being a gay cross-dresser, but decided she would do this later. She had to find his trust!
"What are we going to do?" one of the Officials asked.
Number 2 replied, "There's no choice but to send her back to her world, until she is ready to come back. Will it. will it really take two months?"
Kristin and Caitlin smiled at the fact that Katie would be gone for two months. "Oh, she's exaggerating," Kristin said, while Caitlin nodded besides her. "It won't take two months. But truly, poor Katie-sama should be taken back to her world at once! We can't let her go on about with this fever of hers. She needs rest."
Katie's eyes got wide and almost tearful. "You. you guys. You really care for me. I thought." "But of course we care for you!" Caitlin lied. "Just because we don't necessarily LOVE you as a GREAT DEAR FRIEND, doesn't mean we don't care about you! You're our. uh, not comic, but uh. miaka relief."
"I am?" Katie replied, ready to cry in joy. In the background, happy music began to play as Kristin sat down on the edge of Katie's bed and began to talk.
"Katie, it's your miaka relief that keeps us going. It's what keeps us together and makes things brighter. This has nothing to do with friendship, but a deep connection between you and me and the rest of the Suzaku seven," Kristin lied.
"Besides," Caitlin said, breaking the mood, "who the heck is going to come down in your place? There's no Yui in our world."
Meanwhile in Kutou.
DUN DUN DUUUUUN!!!
Martha was mad. She was very mad indeed. She had fed her beloved Nakago and taken care of him by doing simple things like brushing his hair and fixing his clothes, and getting him what he wanted. She was always at his side, and believed in every word he had to say.
She did not have sexual relationships with that man. * Clinton face and thumbs up sign *
Now, the cackling of Kailein and Tomo could not be heard in the palace no more, as they had been punished for the next two months. At least, Martha thought, I'll be able to follow the original story line this way. We'll meet up with them later. It's a good thing there's no Yui. I don't want Nakago to get all stressed out and start acting evil all over again! Plus, I don't want to deal with that Tamahome!
But bad news was about to strike.
During a quiet afternoon in the palace, with several guards still searching for the lost Ashitare, one of the Boboshi's came to Martha.
"Martha-sama," Bob 3 said. "I have news from Konan. The possible Priestess known as Katie has returned to her world due to a terrible sickness."
Martha gave a slight smile, but tried not to show it. She didn't want to be mean about it. She just wanted Kristin to be the Suzaku no miko!
"Unfortunately, someone has come down in her place and Taiiutskun has claimed her as the Priestess of Seiyru."
Martha gasped. "But. but who? I don't want to be replaced! I'm the rightful Priestess of Seiyru, not this new Yui!"
"Yui?" Bob 3 said. "Oh no. You must have heard the name wrong. Please, let me introduce you to Uni."
From behind him stepped a tall, beautiful girl of fair skin and long dark hair. Unfortunately, Martha didn't notice these features as her eyes were fixed directly at the thick, bushy uni-brow on her face.
"NOO!!!" Martha cried. "What are you doing here?!"
"I wanted to be a Suzaku no miko," Uni said in a dumb, deep voice. "I'm a tamahome fan, too. Aren't you? Isn't the Seiyru no miko supposed to be a tamahome fan?"
"NO!" Martha shouted. "NO! Because I'm a Nakago fan! I love Nakago!"
She stopped as Bob 3 gave a snigger. "So the rumors were true?"
Martha kicked him hard in the groin. Then, she stared at the dumb- looking Uni before her, saying out loud, "Oh, what's my dear Nakago going to say about this?!"
In the distance, echoing through the halls, a deep bass voice could be heard singing:
Cheez-its
Cheez its
So orange are you my little friends
I'm going to bite off your little ends
Cheez its
Cheez its
In your center there's a hole
It cuts into my soul
Cheez its
Cheez its
Can't live with out you
You know how much I love you
Cheez its
Cheez its
You are my only friend
From now until the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeend
Of your box.
