Disclaimer: let's see... I don't own Halloween, Yu Yu Hakusho, Chris,
Fangirlitis, the tourists, my friends, or any civilians of the good city of
Salem. That about covers it, so let's get on with part two of my Halloween
special!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
It's about nine-thirty, and our little group is standing by The Army Barracks, just staring at the huge crowd of people stuffed into the downtown shopping area, all of them are wearing some type of costume.
Botan: Wow... it's quite a crowd...
Kurama: Yes... It usually isn't this busy in Salem...
KKC: Hey, it's Halloween. People from all over travel to Salem because of the witch trials that took place here in the seventeen hundreds. Besides, they're giving out free food. *Elbows her way into the crowd* See you guys at the Magic Parlor!
Kayko: *clinging onto Yusuke's arm* God, they're scary...
Chris: Well, yeah. They're tourists!
Kuwabara: I'm glad Yukina went home when she did... this isn't a place for a sweet girl like her.
Hiei: ...want me to thin the crowd a bit?
Everyone: NO!
Touya: Er... anyone see where Jin went?
Botan: Oh, I think he followed KKC to make sure she didn't get hurt.
Touya: Damn! Do you know how much trouble he could cause? *Notices a group of kids dressed in punk/goth clothes spray-painting a brick wall. * Hey! That's public property!
Goth/punk #1: Shut up, freak! What're you going to do? Huh?! 'xactly! So go F*** off!
Touya: 0____0 The hell? Impudent child!
Fangirlitis: Hey, I think I know that kid! Danny! *Waves* Hi!
Touya: *grabs Fangirlitis by the wrist and drags her away from the little delinquents. * No you don't! Let's go find your sister and Jin.
Fangirlitis: *yelling over crowd* See 'ya Tuesday, Danny!
Danny// punk/goth kid #3: See you in art! *Waves goodbye* weird boyfriend, though...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Over by the Budweiser tent...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Chuu is sitting on a stool, with a bunch of amber bottles arranged in a pyramid in front of him.
Chuu: *hiccups* More.
Bartender: Dude, you've had eleven bottles already. Come to think of it, you should be in a coma by now...
Chuu: I want more! *Hiccups* NOW! *Hiccups again*
Bartender: *puts a bottle in front of Chuu, who gulps it down and puts it on top of the beer bottle pyramid* I really don't get paid enough for doing this...
Over by the DJ...
KKC: *talking to DJ in hushed tones* you can? Great! Thank you very much, ma'am.
DJ: No prob. It's one of my favorites. *Puts in CD, and "Paint it Black" starts playing over the stereo speakers*
KKC: Yay! I love this song! *Tail twitches in beat to the music and she starts to sing the lyrics*
Chuu: *Finishes his thirteenth beer (Its amazing he hasn't passed out yet) and looks around the crowded plaza* Tch. I heard this party was supposed to be a flippin' blast. Eh? What's that Sheila doing here alone? *Walks over and grabs KKC by the shoulder* Hey there...
KKC: *growls, her pupils shrink to thin slits, her ears lay back, and her fur stands on end* Hands. Off.
Chuu: Now I wouldn't be so rude, missy...
Jin: *shoves his way through the crowd and grabs Chuu by the collar* No, I wouldn't. *Proceeds in trying to beat some sense into the drunken youkai* Shouldn't be bugging a lass like tha'.
Touya and Fangirlitis manage to make it past the throng of wildly dancing high schoolers crowded in front of the stereo and notice KKC ready to attack Chuu, even though Jin is already taking care of it. The two of them rush in and manage to restrain the PO'd kitsune.
KKC: Just give me five minutes! That's all I need! I'll goddamn castrate him!
Touya: Calm down! You're not castrating anyone!
Fangirlitis: Or caldoning them, either.
Touya: Oh, sure... just give her more ideas why don't you?
Fangirlitis: ^ ^;; oops... Anyways, wait until he's sober and then blackmail him!
Touya: You're not helping, Fangirlitis...
KKC: *still struggling, but is now thinking of more ways to torture Chuu come the next section of "Wheel of Torture"* Grrrrr... Wait'll I get my hands on him...
Touya: *over shoulder* Jin, you done yet?
Jin: *tosses the black and blue Chuu onto an empty bench* Yeah, but what should we do with him?
Fangirlitis: *shrugs* just leave him. He'll come by tomorrow for painkillers for his hangover.
Jin: That's gonna be one hell of a headache...
KKC: Let go of me! *Bites Touya's hand, and the ice-master screams like a girl*
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Over by Coons.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Kayko: Did you hear that?
Kuwabara: Hear what?
Kayko: A scream...
Kuwabara: Fear not, Kayko. For I, Kazuma Kuwabara, will go rescue the fair maiden!
Botan: Erm, how do you know it's a woman?
Kuwabara: I know it is a woman, for my manly intuition tells me so.
Botan: *whispers to Kayko* Never trust a man's intuition. Believe me, I learned the hard way.
Kayko: I'll keep that in mind. *Turns around* Uh, Kuwabara, what are you doing?
Kuwabara: *being carried by an extremely obese woman in a skimpy, black leather outfit and fishnet tights. She's also carrying a whip and has a large rose tattoo on her arm* Help meeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Kayko: Hey, Hiei...
Hiei: Hn.
Kayko: Can you please do us a favor and go rescue Kuwabara while we try to find KKC, Jin, Touya, and Fangirlitis?
Hiei: *glares, but disappears to go save Kuwabara from the 300-pound prostitute*
Kurama: Come on you two. Stop fooling around and hurry up! *Grabs Chris and Yusuke by their jacket collars, and tries to drag them away from a group of attractive and skimpily dressed young women*
Chris: *over his shoulder to the gaggle of ladies* Call me!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Back by the Budweiser tent...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
KKC: Hey, Jin... er... thanks.
Jin: *sheepish grin* No problem, Lass. Any time at all.
Fangirlitis: *finally releases hold on KKC* Well, my job here is done. I'm gonna go look for a new hex book.
Touya: *Cradling injured hand. There are small puncture marks across the pale skin where KKC bit him. * Books? I'm there. *The two of them go off to the antique bookstore across the pathway*
Jin: Eh, he'll never change. Hm? Botan. 'ey!
Botan: Jin! *Notices Chuu sprawled on bench and blood on KKC's lips* What happened over here?
KKC: Chuu got drunk and tried to attack me, and then Jin kicked his ass!
Kurama: Chuu? Here?
Jin: Yep.
Yusuke: ^ ^;;; Crap. Hey, Chris! What're you doing?! Leave the drunkard alone!
Chris: *talking to a groggy, but conscious, Chuu. He has a small notebook and pen in hand. * Dude, can I have your autograph?
Chuu: Shure! *Scribbles something that resembles a signature on the notebook and hands it back to Chris* There y' go, mate! *Drunkenly stumbles off to go party* See you folks later...
Yusuke: Hey, how come you never asked for my autograph?!
Chris: Yusuke luck.
Yusuke: Huh?
Chris: You seem to win every major fight through luck alone. At least Kuwabara puts in some effort.
Yusuke: How dare you compare me to that idiot! And besides, you weren't there, so how would you know?
Chris: I recorded the entire Dark tournament on a DVD, so I can point out all your stupid mistakes later.
Yusuke thwaps Chris over the head. Chris, in return, pokes Yusuke in the eye.
Botan: Children, children! Calm down. Jin, is Touya all right?
Jin: Yeah, unless KKC carries rabies.
KKC: -_-* You're stretching it, Jin. *Notices a certain shadow drag Kuwabara out from the crowd of costumed partygoers. * Hiei, Kuwabara, what happened?
Kuwabara: Nearly killed me... suffocating... no light...
Hiei: He's had a bad encounter with some stupid ningen.
KKC: Oh... Is my sister off looking for another magic book?
Kurama: Yes... but isn't that what you usually do downtown? I thought she scouted all the jewelry stores.
KKC: Yeah, but it's cheaper to get them down here than to order them online.
Kayko: Makes sense. *Looks at clock tower* Oh, its almost ten o'clock...
Yusuke: And your point is..?
Kayko: Whatever. Hey, Fangirlitis! Touya! Over here! *Waves to the two, who are finally making it out of the store, Touya carrying a bag loaded with old, dusty novels. *
Chris: What took you guys so long?
Fangirlitis: Well, unlike some of you less well-read idiots, I'm stocking up for winter vacation.
KKC: I thought you were gonna start a new fanfic then?
Fangirlitis: Hey, I need to steal ideas from someone.
KKC: But I thought that was what I was for! You always steal my plots and ideas!
Fangirlitis: Yes, but you've seem to have accumulated a few fans lately. I'm gonna take ideas from books no one's ever heard of!
Kurama: But if no one bought the books anyway, why do you think your writing would fare much better?
Fangirlitis: Ah-hah! That is where I've got you, dear fox! I'm going to twist the plot ideas until it's totally unrecognizable from the original work!
Chris: But then it's not copied from the book!
Fangirlitis: Exactly! SO I can claim that I own everything!
KKC: Except the characters...
Fangirlitis: Nah, I own them too.
Yusuke: 0.0 Wait until I call my lawyer...
Fangirlitis: Go ahead. My shit-face lawyers can call your shit-face lawyers and we can do lunch together, my treat. *Flashes credit card*
Yusuke: You do know that I'll pick the most expensive restaurant in town just to spite you, right?
Fangirlitis: Go ahead, it's not my money.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Somewhere in Boston...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Kevin: *sneezes* *grumbles* Stupid New England weather...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Anyways...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Random guy notices KKC and runs over, clutching onto her arm.
KKC: What the?! What is it with people disregarding my personal space today?! Lemme go! *Breaks the guy's death-grip on her arm*
Guy: You aren't entered in the costume contest?
KKC: NO! *Muttering to self* I hate contests...
Guy: *dejectedly looks at the ground* Oh... and you would be a shoe-in for the two hundred dollar prize too...
KKC: Eh? Did I just hear something about money? *Puts an arm around the guy's shoulders and starts talking in a business-like tone* Well, I can help you out for he prize money...
Chris: *notices dollar signs in KKC's eyes and drags her away from the guy* Oh, no you don't.
KKC: *puppy-dog eyes and pouting* Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeee? Pretty please? I'll behave!
Chris: No. Go scrounge up the extra cash from the public fountain, like you usually do.
KKC: Jerk. *Kicks Chris in the shins*
Chris: YEOW! *Hopping around on one foot*
Fangirlitis: Aw... I wanted to beat up Chris this fic...
Chris stops hopping around and stares at Fangirlitis, who is cracking her knuckles menacingly, then hides behind Hiei. It's rather comical, as Chris is about a foot taller than the fire demon.
Chris: Stay away woman! Hiei, sic her!
Hiei: Get the hell away off of me, stupid ningen! *Whaps Chris over the head with the flat of his katana*
Chris: *steps out from behind Hiei* *sniff* Do you guys have any idea *sniff* how you're affecting my mental health and stability? *Points to Fangirlitis* I could end up like her if this continues!
Kuwabara: You mean go completely psycho and develop an insane counter-part of the opposite gender?
Chris: *nods* Yeah, as if one of her wasn't bad enough. So why don't you guys lay off for a while, hm?
Kurama: *shudders* Agreed.
He looks behind the group, and sees a trio of costumed teens run up. The tallest one sneaks up behind KKC and glomps her, causing KKC to shriek.
KKC: EDDIE! PUT ME DOWN GODDAMMIT!
Michealla: Eddie, put the fox down. Now.
Eddie: *wearing a white, doctor's coat that has "Free breast exams" written across the front* But-
KKC: I have a harisen and I'm not afraid to use it.
Eddie: What's a harise-
*THWAP! *
KKC: *neatly folds the paper fan into her jacket sleeve* That is a harisen.
Stephanie: Wow, I gotta get me one of those.
KKC: They're actually pretty handy; just ask Chris or my sister.
Botan: *Wincing at the large bump on Eddie's head* Are you okay?
Eddie: Yeah, I'm fine... *looks up at Botan and blushes* Erm, I mean...
Yusuke: So, your KKC's friends from school...
Stephanie: Yep. Hear a bit about us?
Jin: Heard a bit? Just check out the lass' bio page; it's loaded with quotes from her school.
Michealla: Yeah, it's a fun place. Tuesday we got to groom the horses and ride the go-karts again.
KKC: Yeah, and it was my luck to be sick that day... -__-*
Touya: It was probably a good thing, because you suck at driving. I'd hate to be around when you get your license, you'd be running people over, crashing into ditches, getting into the middle of seven-car pile ups...
KKC: Remind me to run you over first, ice-boy.
Eddie: *wistfully* Ah yes... I'll never forget Susan Cambridge...
Kuwabara: Why? Old girlfriend?
Eddie: Nope. I ran over her tombstone first when my dad was teaching me to drive in the cemetery.
Kurama: Lovely...
Fangirlitis: Speaking of cars, KKC almost killed me when she was backing her mom's jeep into her grandfather's driveway.
Chris: And then she drove the old model T ford off the track at Canobie Lake.
Fangirlitis: And before that she crashed into twelve people on the go-karts at Six Flags.
KKC: -_-* I get the point...
Kuwabara: Remember the racetrack at Disney land?
Botan: Oh, the horror. I seriously thought I was going to have to bring her in that day.
KKC: I get the point you guys, you can stop now.
Michealla: That's nothing. She swerved to miss a tree and ran over the teacher, Mr. Hatch.
Stephanie/Eddie/Michealla: *cringe at the memory*
KKC: I GET THE FRICKIN' POINT!
Jin: Why bother with cars and machines? Why not fly? *Levitates a few inches off the ground to prove his point*
Chris/ Yusuke: Ack! *Drag Jin back down to the ground*
Chris: Dude, not in public! We can't let other people know you're a demon! *Looks over at Eddie, Stephanie, and Michealla, who are just gaping at Jin* ...crap...
Eddie: o.0 He-he flew. He flew!
Kayko: Whooh-boy... this is going to take some explaining...
Eddie: HE FLEW! That is so cool! Dude, show me how!
Jin: ^ ^;;; Er... let's not jump to conclusions now...
Stephanie: I heard that anime was weird, but demons? What series is this?
Touya: *points to top of page* Yu Yu Hakusho. First released in Japan in 1996-
Eddie: Sure as hell ain't no Golden Boy.
Michealla: What makes you say that?
Eddie: There are no hot chicks in skin-tight, highly revealing outfits having orgasms.
KKC: O___O Eddie! Mind. Gutter. OUT!
Kayko: HENTAI! *Slaps Eddie*
Eddie: *lying in a crumpled heap on the sidewalk, his nose severely bleeding* Ow... the pain...
Yusuke: Well, I guess that's another perv introduced into my measly and pathetic circle of friends.
Botan: Oh, like you're not one of them!
Yusuke: ixnay on the ervertedpay.
Fangirlitis: Oh, I know! Iay maay oinggay otay illkay isChray!
Chris: Huh? In English, please.
KKC: Erm... you might not want to hear what she has to say.
Chris: What do you mean?
Fangirlitis: isChray uckssay! Ehay siay aay otaltay oserlay!
Chris: What? I don't like what she's saying!
Fangirlitis: isChray ashay exsay ithway oatsgay!
Michealla: o.0 ...he does?
Chris: WHAT IS SHE SAYING?! TELL ME!!! *Grabs Michealla's shoulders and shakes her* TELL ME DAMMIT!
Michealla: Whoa... shaking baby syndrome...
Fangirlitis: ehay ashay hreesomesta-
KKC: Enough! *Brings out harisen*
*THWAP! *
Fangirlitis: @____@ ow-ay...
Chris: Oh, now I get it! She was speaking in pig latin! *Smiles confidently, then translates what Fangirlitis just said* ...huh? OH, I'M GONNA KILL HER! FLIPPIN' IDIOT!
Botan: You mean "IPPIN'FLAY DIOTIAY!" right?
Chris: No, I mean that she's gonna die a slow painful death!
Fangirlitis: If I die, Tylor will go looking for a new host! And he's not picky...
Chris: So?
Fangirlitis: I said, "He's not picky".
Chris: Oh, crap. KKC, contact the local church. We're going to have to perform an exorcism on your sister.
KKC: Really? *Clasps Chris' hands* You'll pay for it too?
Chris: Yeah. Why?
KKC: *KKC looks up to the sky. Her pupils dilate and a golden light shines on her, with "hallelujah" playing in the background* God be praised!
Kurama: I thought you were an atheist...
Stephanie: Shh! You're spoiling the moment.
As if on cue, rain starts pouring down and lightning strikes a lamppost nearby.
Kuwabara: o.0 Okay, prayer time is over.
Fangirlitis: Yeah, let's go home and get out of this rain.
Eddie: *Suddenly all better* Woo-hoo! Party at KKC's house!
KKC: Yeah, well don't expect much. You still have to get home on your own.
Eddie: Hey, I came in on the train and I'll go out on the train.
Hiei: See you there. *Disappears as he sprints ahead*
Michealla: You know, I really need to start coming to Salem more often. The coolest freaks are always hanging around downtown.
Fangirlitis: It's a blast during the summer.
KKC: Especially when Haley comes down to the Boys and Girls club.
Botan: Haley? I think I almost had to pick her up last summer.
Yusuke: Really? Where?
Botan: she almost fell down a cliff while blueberry picking.
KKC: *laughs* Yep, that's Haley for 'ya! *Pulls umbrella from jacket sleeve and unfolds it* Let's go home!
Touya: What else do you store in your jacket sleeves?
KKC: That is a mystery to solve some other day! For now, let's leave before all these tourists start moving.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Well, check out the third chapter tomorrow for the next morning! Not a pretty sight, let me tell you...

Fangirlitis: Aw... I wanted to beat up Chris this fic...
Chris stops hopping around and stares at Fangirlitis, who is cracking her knuckles menacingly, then hides behind Hiei. It's rather comical, as Chris is about a foot taller than the fire demon.
Chris: Stay away woman! Hiei, sic her!
Hiei: Get the hell away off of me, stupid ningen! *Whaps Chris over the head with the flat of his katana*
Chris: *steps out from behind Hiei* *sniff* Do you guys have any idea *sniff* how you're affecting my mental health and stability? *Points to Fangirlitis* I could end up like her if this continues!
Kuwabara: You mean go completely psycho and develop an insane counter-part of the opposite gender?
Chris: *nods* Yeah, as if one of her wasn't bad enough. So why don't you guys lay off for a while, hm?
Kurama: *shudders* Agreed.
He looks behind the group, and sees a trio of costumed teens run up. The tallest one sneaks up behind KKC and glomps her, causing KKC to shriek.
KKC: EDDIE! PUT ME DOWN GODDAMMIT!
Michealla: Eddie, put the fox down. Now.
Eddie: *wearing a white, doctor's coat that has "Free breast exams" written across the front* But-
KKC: I have a harisen and I'm not afraid to use it.
Eddie: What's a harise-
*THWAP! *
KKC: *neatly folds the paper fan into her jacket sleeve* That is a harisen.
Stephanie: Wow, I gotta get me one of those.
KKC: They're actually pretty handy; just ask Chris or my sister.
Botan: *Wincing at the large bump on Eddie's head* Are you okay?
Eddie: Yeah, I'm fine... *looks up at Botan and blushes* Erm, I mean...
Yusuke: So, your KKC's friends from school...
Stephanie: Yep. Hear a bit about us?
Jin: Heard a bit? Just check out the lass' bio page; it's loaded with quotes from her school.
Michealla: Yeah, it's a fun place. Tuesday we got to groom the horses and ride the go-karts again.
KKC: Yeah, and it was my luck to be sick that day... -__-*
Touya: It was probably a good thing, because you suck at driving. I'd hate to be around when you get your license, you'd be running people over, crashing into ditches, getting into the middle of seven-car pile ups...
KKC: Remind me to run you over first, ice-boy.
Eddie: *wistfully* Ah yes... I'll never forget Susan Cambridge...
Kuwabara: Why? Old girlfriend?
Eddie: Nope. I ran over her tombstone first when my dad was teaching me to drive in the cemetery.
Kurama: Lovely...
Fangirlitis: Speaking of cars, KKC almost killed me when she was backing her mom's jeep into her grandfather's driveway.
Chris: And then she drove the old model T ford off the track at Canobie Lake.
Fangirlitis: And before that she crashed into twelve people on the go-karts at Six Flags.
KKC: -_-* I get the point...
Kuwabara: Remember the racetrack at Disney land?
Botan: Oh, the horror. I seriously thought I was going to have to bring her in that day.
KKC: I get the point you guys, you can stop now.
Michealla: That's nothing. She swerved to miss a tree and ran over the teacher, Mr. Hatch.
Stephanie/Eddie/Michealla: *cringe at the memory*
KKC: I GET THE FRICKIN' POINT!
Jin: Why bother with cars and machines? Why not fly? *Levitates a few inches off the ground to prove his point*
Chris/ Yusuke: Ack! *Drag Jin back down to the ground*
Chris: Dude, not in public! We can't let other people know you're a demon! *Looks over at Eddie, Stephanie, and Michealla, who are just gaping at Jin* ...crap...
Eddie: o.0 He-he flew. He flew!
Kayko: Whooh-boy... this is going to take some explaining...
Eddie: HE FLEW! That is so cool! Dude, show me how!
Jin: ^ ^;;; Er... let's not jump to conclusions now...
Stephanie: I heard that anime was weird, but demons? What series is this?
Touya: *points to top of page* Yu Yu Hakusho. First released in Japan in 1996-
Eddie: Sure as hell ain't no Golden Boy.
Michealla: What makes you say that?
Eddie: There are no hot chicks in skin-tight, highly revealing outfits having orgasms.
KKC: O___O Eddie! Mind. Gutter. OUT!
Kayko: HENTAI! *Slaps Eddie*
Eddie: *lying in a crumpled heap on the sidewalk, his nose severely bleeding* Ow... the pain...
Yusuke: Well, I guess that's another perv introduced into my measly and pathetic circle of friends.
Botan: Oh, like you're not one of them!
Yusuke: ixnay on the ervertedpay.
Fangirlitis: Oh, I know! Iay maay oinggay otay illkay isChray!
Chris: Huh? In English, please.
KKC: Erm... you might not want to hear what she has to say.
Chris: What do you mean?
Fangirlitis: isChray uckssay! Ehay siay aay otaltay oserlay!
Chris: What? I don't like what she's saying!
Fangirlitis: isChray ashay exsay ithway oatsgay!
Michealla: o.0 ...he does?
Chris: WHAT IS SHE SAYING?! TELL ME!!! *Grabs Michealla's shoulders and shakes her* TELL ME DAMMIT!
Michealla: Whoa... shaking baby syndrome...
Fangirlitis: ehay ashay hreesomesta-
KKC: Enough! *Brings out harisen*
*THWAP! *
Fangirlitis: @____@ ow-ay...
Chris: Oh, now I get it! She was speaking in pig latin! *Smiles confidently, then translates what Fangirlitis just said* ...huh? OH, I'M GONNA KILL HER! FLIPPIN' IDIOT!
Botan: You mean "IPPIN'FLAY DIOTIAY!" right?
Chris: No, I mean that she's gonna die a slow painful death!
Fangirlitis: If I die, Tylor will go looking for a new host! And he's not picky...
Chris: So?
Fangirlitis: I said, "He's not picky".
Chris: Oh, crap. KKC, contact the local church. We're going to have to perform an exorcism on your sister.
KKC: Really? *Clasps Chris' hands* You'll pay for it too?
Chris: Yeah. Why?
KKC: *KKC looks up to the sky. Her pupils dilate and a golden light shines on her, with "hallelujah" playing in the background* God be praised!
Kurama: I thought you were an atheist...
Stephanie: Shh! You're spoiling the moment.
As if on cue, rain starts pouring down and lightning strikes a lamppost nearby.
Kuwabara: o.0 Okay, prayer time is over.
Fangirlitis: Yeah, let's go home and get out of this rain.
Eddie: *Suddenly all better* Woo-hoo! Party at KKC's house!
KKC: Yeah, well don't expect much. You still have to get home on your own.
Eddie: Hey, I came in on the train and I'll go out on the train.
Hiei: See you there. *Disappears as he sprints ahead*
Michealla: You know, I really need to start coming to Salem more often. The coolest freaks are always hanging around downtown.
Fangirlitis: It's a blast during the summer.
KKC: Especially when Haley comes down to the Boys and Girls club.
Botan: Haley? I think I almost had to pick her up last summer.
Yusuke: Really? Where?
Botan: she almost fell down a cliff while blueberry picking.
KKC: *laughs* Yep, that's Haley for 'ya! *Pulls umbrella from jacket sleeve and unfolds it* Let's go home!
Touya: What else do you store in your jacket sleeves?
KKC: That is a mystery to solve some other day! For now, let's leave before all these tourists start moving.
