Episode #3: Snow and Towels Falling on Cedars and Floors
Note from editor: Snow falling on cedars was a 1980's Japanese movie that is still playing in many theaters. The author and myself watched it quite a couple of times. I recommend it. - editor
... although the title of this episode has nothing to do with its contents... but it sounds so cool!!!! *goes heart-eyed and drools* anyways... - author
and so.... ON WITH THE STORY.
Sanosuke: so what happened to your brother? Is he alive?
Ryoko: I think it is best if I didn't know.
Sanosuke: so who exactly is your brother?
Kenshin: let me guess... hmm... Maki, right?
Ryoko: *wide-eyed* how'd you know? I never told anyone.
Sanosuke: well... he does look a little like her... something about the eyes and that certain cuteness that gets me all happy...
Ryoko: *goes red in the face* DID YOU JUST CALL ME CUTE????? DEMONS LIKE ME ARE EVERYTHING BUT CUTE!!!!!!!
Sanosuke: heheh...
Kenshin: ^_^ well, I think that what Sano is trying to say is that you two look alike.
Ryoko: *yawns* This has sapped my strength. I think I'm going to go home and sleep. *stretches and starts walking away*
Kenshin: umm... Ryoko?
Ryoko: what is it now?
Sanosuke: well, we don't have any place to go to, and we're also famished and exhausted.
Ryoko: what are you implying?
Kenshin: um... well, only that maybe we can... STAY AT YOUR PLACE???? *eyes flash in a very un-Kenshin-like way* *Kenshin grows red horns and teeth and a red pitchfork appears in his hand and he glows all over with a red aura*
Ryoko: *grabs her heart and falls over in shock* *the scenery switches to a moon lit sky and Ryoko's tears flow like waterfalls*
*Ryoko twitches on the floor like she's dying* at... my... place...? *emits choking noises* do you know... what that means...?
Sanosuke: *pinches himself like he's dreaming* will you guys cut the drama? Geez, you guys are complete idiots...
Ryoko: ok! *the scenery switches back to a sunset and Ryoko gets up like nothing's happened* follow me.
Sanosuke: what was all that about???
Kenshin: oh, don't worry. Ryoko and I like to play like that a little. We need humor in our lives, ya know?
Sanosuke: sheesh... idiots.
They arrive at Ryoko's place and she shows them around. After a good take-out dinner, (cuz the readers all ready know, that the famous fire demon Ryoko can do anything in the world, except cook and look after kids... or did I forget to mention that little fact..........? - author. *bam* YOU KEEP WRITING! - editor)
Ryoko: you guys should know one thing though. My brother also goes by the name of Koga. If you hear anything about him, you better tell me. *yawns* I'm pooped. Good night everybody. *falls asleep* *snores like a bear*
Kenshin and Sanosuke: ... ^.^
Sanosuke: *covers her with a blanket* sleep well, Ryoko.
Kenshin: Sano, lets take a walk.
*****outside*****
Kenshin: so, what do you think?
Sanosuke: ... Maki is her brother, huh?
Kenshin: I know, it seemed just as farfetched to me at first. But when you think of what Ryoko is... well... all you can do is believe it.
Sanosuke: so explain this to me... Maki, or should I say Koga, is a wolf demon.
Kenshin: HALF-wolf demon.
Sanosuke: fine. Half. But Ryoko's a fire demon.
Kenshin: It just means that Ryoko is 'forbidden child in her family'.
Sanosuke: do demons even HAVE families? And what does 'forbidden child' mean?
Kenshin: Ryoko is a fire demon born to a race of wolf demons. I remember someone had told me that before, but I just can't remember who.
Sanosuke: oh well. We'll talk about this later than, k? Lets go back and sleep.
Kenshin: *yawns* awright. Lets.
End of Episode #3
::cheap credits, but a nice ending theme::
Ryoko: Hey everybody, its your favorite fire demon here. In the next episode of A Samurai, a Demon and a Ruffian, I, (with the two idiots on my tail) will face off a bounty hunter, by the name of Nagi. She's been following me ever since I robbed my first bank. Bummer. She's going to get her ass kicked, you can be sure of it!!! Hahah!!! See you later then!!!
Sanosuke: hey, I haven't given this title much thought, but, am I supposed to be the ruffian? I mean Ryoko's the demon, and Kenshin is the samurai, so... I AM SUPPOSED TO BE THE RUFFIAN??!?? HOW DARE SHE!!! LET ME AT THAT STPID AUTHOR!!!! GRAR!!!
Kenshin: oh, SANOOOOO!!! Its time for the OMAKE!!!
Omake theater (well everybody, I expect you don't know what omake means, but you don't need to. From now, every episode will have an omake, a lil' episode that happens off the set, and has nothing to do with the story itself. But let me warn all you 13-year olds and down! It might get a little too hot for your tastes. SO BUG OFF YOU LITTLE TEENY BOPPERS!!!!!! - author)
Ryoko is wearing nothing but a towel and is chasing Sanosuke. She is screaming and carrying a big-ass tub over her head, ready to throw at Sanosuke. Kenshin is running after Ryoko, trying to calm her down, but obviously failing, blushing and sweat dropping.
Ryoko: *throws 10 bars of soap at Sanosuke, hitting him on the head* SANOSUKE!!!! YOU ARE GOING TO PAY!!!! GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! *eyes flash*
Sanosuke: *running and screaming* AAAAAARRRRRRHHHHHHGGGGG!!!!!!!!! KENSHIN HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kenshin: *running behind Ryoko* Sorry old buddy, but I don't want to get on the wrong side of the demon!!! You know how she gets when she's mad!!! I'll just try to calm her down from here!!!
Sanosuke: that's not going to help!!!
Ryoko: SANOSUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DOG!!!!!!!!!!!
Kenshin grows a pair and grabs Ryoko by the first thing he can get at to stop her from getting at Sanosuke....................................................................................
...........................................which just conveniently happens to be Ryoko's towel.
Of course, it flutters off, and Ryoko freezes for a moment, which ends after the towel hits the floor.
Ryoko: *reddens and drops the tub* GAH!!!!! NOT YOU TOO!!! YOU IDIOT!!!!!
Kenshin: GAH!!!!! @.@ oooooh.
Ryoko: *snatches up the towel and runs to her room*
Kenshin stands there gawking. Sanosuke steps from around the corner and whispers to Kenshin.
Sanosuke: come on, before she gets back. *both run away*
