POOL PARTY!

A/N: What's this? I've barely received any reviews! T-T *sobs* ok...well, I hope that I get more reviews for this one. ^_^ For those that HAVE reviewed, "THANKS!" ^_^ I appreciate it.

I hope people haven't been seeing this as a boring subject to write about...BUT WHY WOULD IT BE?! It's Kenshin! It's a pool party in the Meiji era! What's so boring about that?! LOL. ^_^ Besides, I don't release anything if it's boring...I don't want to bore my audience. ^_^ If it's a boring subject, I use all I have within my power to make it crazy. ^_^ Although I feel that I sometimes fail. T-T Oh well...Reviews tend to prove me wrong, so I'm happy. ^_^ Now...how about that story, eh? That may be a good idea...I think I'm boring my audience now...AH! NOT THAT!

Disclaimer: Ok...THIS is boring my audience. Anyway, I don't own Kenshin or anything relating to anything I don't currently own. So there! ^_^ ____________________________________________________________________________ _

Chapter 2: RYU-ZEN BELLY FLOP! BOOYA!

Kaoru: WHY DON'T YOU DO SOMETHING USEFUL, MISAO!?

Misao: I WAS ABOUT TO WHEN YOU EXPLODED AT ME!

Kaoru: SHOUTING BACK ISN'T EXACTLY HELPING!

Misao: LEARN FROM YOUR OWN ADVICE, RACCOON GIRL!

Kaoru: BE QUIET, WEASLE!

Yahiko: *enters room again* Are you two still going at it?

Kaoru & Misao: *evil glare at Yahiko* STAY OUT OF THIS!

Yahiko: That's fine with me. I'm going swimming.

Kaoru & Misao: *startled look* OH YAH! THE POOL!

Sanosuke: *still staring at Yumi*

Yumi: *clenches teeth* You're going to be sorry later.

Kenshin: Sano, I really think you should leave her alone, that I do.

Sanosuke: *snaps out of it* You may be right. I don't feel like having a broken nose today.

Hiko: *enters in a speedo*

Kenshin: OROOO @_@

Yumi: O_O

Hiko: Where...is...the punch? TELL ME NOW!

Kenshin: Sanosuke just emptied it all. Sorry, master.

Hiko: *Evil glare at Sano*

Sanosuke: HEY! DON'T LOOK AT ME! KENSHIN TOLD ME TO!

Hiko: *Evil glare at Kensin* Is this true? You truly ARE a baka apprentice!

Kenshin: No, master. I told him to be sure that-

Hiko: SILENCE! RETRIEVE MORE PUNCH OR TASTE MY WRATH!

Kenshin: ORO. *runs out for more punch*

Yumi: O_O

Hiko: *notices Yumi* What are YOU looking at?

Yumi: O_O

Sanosuke: *bursts out laughing*

Hiko: Fine, stare all you want. I don't care.

Yumi: O_O

Soujiro: *enters dojo* Have I missed anything?

Yumi: YOU! What are YOU doing here?!

Soujiro: Please, Yumi-dono. There's no need to raise your voice. ^_^

Shishio: *raises head from floor* Soujiro, welcome to the carrot of prosperity.

Megumi: *places head in hands* He still isn't sober.

Soujiro: Thank you for the warm welcome, Master Shishio. ^_^ I think I'll be headed for the pool now.

Megumi: I'll do the same. I'm getting rather bored standing around with no lines.

Everyone else: Lines? o_O

Megumi: Er...I mean...*ahem*...I'm too anxious to swim. I'm going to the pool now. *edges out of the room*

Yahiko: Why is everyone so strange today?

Shishio: It must be the chlorine from the War of 1812! *burp* *plops to ground*

Yahiko: I think I've made my point. *leaves for the pool*

Saito: *cartwheels into the room* PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH!

Sanosuke: OI! KENSHIN LEFT TO GET MORE!

Saito: *ceases cartwheel and falls to the floor* *silent*

Sanosuke: WHY DOESN'T EVERYONE JUST GO OUT TO THE POOL AND HAVE FUN!? FORGET ABOUT THE DAMN PUNCH!

Everyone else besides Saito and Shishio: O_O GOOD POINT! *runs out of the room*

Kenshin: *enters room* I got more punch! Guys? Where'd they go?

Shishio: *grunts*

Saito: *springs from the ground at the sound of "punch"* PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH! *runs to the punch bowl*

Kenshin: I think you should take it easy, Saito. Too much punch can-

Saito: YOU WILL NEVER GET MY PUNCH!

Kenshin: *edges out towards the pool*

Saito: Heheh...all mine. *pulls out a vial*

*scene shifts to the pool outside*

Hiko: MARCO!

Aoshi: ...polo...

Kenshin: *climbs up the ladder to the diving board* RYU-SEN! *jumps off the board and attacks the water*

Sanosuke: Kenshin! Give the fighting a rest! Just do a normal dive!

Kenshin: *jumps in and out of the water like a dolphin* *imitates dolphin sound*

Sanosuke: O_o

Hiko: *becomes enraged* MARCO!!!!! MARCOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aoshi: *skillfully evades Seijuro Hiko* Heheh. This is more fun than I thought.

Hiko: MARCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aoshi: OLOP!

Hiko: Huh? O_o

Yahiko: *climbs to the diving board* I'LL IMITATE KENSHIN! RYU-ZEN! *flies off the board and rapidly flips around* *belly flops*

Kenshin: He should have said Ryu-SEN. Poor Yahiko.

Kaoru: Misao! JUST GET IN THE POOL! YOU'RE HOLDING UP THE LINE!

Misao: THERE IS NO LINE! YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE BEHIND ME!

*scene shifts to Saito and the punch bowl*

Saito: This will be MOST fun. *empties vial into punch*

Shishio: UGH...*burp*

*scene shifts to the pool*

Misao: *is pushed off the diving board by Kaoru* AHHHH! *MONSTROUS SPLASH*

Kaoru: THAT'S WHAT YOU GET!

Yahiko: *rises to the surface of the water* *gurgle*

Sanosuke: I think someone should help Yahiko.

Kaoru: YAHIKO! *jumps into pool and pulls Yahiko out of the water*

Yahiko: HEY! LET GO OF ME! I'M OK!

Kaoru: WELL YOU SURE DIDN'T LOOK LIKE IT!

Yahiko: WHY CAN'T I EVEN ENJOY SWIMMING! YOU ALWAYS MANAGE TO-

Kaoru: TO WHAT, YAHIKO?! WHAT DO I ALWAYS DO TO YOU TO MAKE YOU ERUPT?!

Sanosuke: Geeze! Can't they enjoy themselves for a day?

Kenshin: Just let them be. Things will work out sooner or later.

Misao: *gurgle* *floats to the surface of the water*

Sanosuke: Now someone needs to help Misao!

Aoshi: MISAO! *runs over and assists*

Misao: *thinks* 'Heh...heh...heh. This'll get him. All I have to do is act like I need oxygen, then-'

Aoshi: *shakes Misao* STOP FAKING ALREADY!

Misao: *shakes back and forth* OK! OK! IF IT MEANS YOU'LL STOP SHAKING ME!

Aoshi: *ceases shaking Misao*

Misao: *thinks* 'Oh well. It was worth a try'

Soujiro: *Walks out of the dojo in...A BIKINI?!?!*

Everyone: @_@

Soujiro: What? Did you think I was a guy or something? Why would you ever think a thing like that? ^_^

Everyone: O_o

Kenshin: @_@ OROOO!

A/N: Ok...I assume I'll offend a few people about Soujiro, but...for those that find it amusing, I'm glad. ^_^ Don't take it personally, I just think that Soujiro sounds like a girl...I wasn't even sure he WAS a guy when I first saw him. I thought for sure he was a girl. @_@ I can't believe my mind went so blank when it came to characters. Now that I think about it, I could have brought Cho into the picture. Next chapter, I will. ^_^ I hope to receive reviews...even if they're flames. -_-;
