How did it come to this?
Author: Pseudo-lux-serpens
Rinku: who's birthday is it? it's not mine.
Chuu: not mine.
Touya: how did you know? I never told you.
Sorath: weird. I don't know but I do know.
Touya: so what, it may be my birthday but that doesn't mean anything.
Rinku: oh, I never really thought about any of our birthdays . . . not even my own really.
Sorath: well regardless, I got you something.
Touya: somehow, I'm scared.
Sorath: why? I mean, you shouldn't be scared of little old me.
Rinku: I don't blame you Touya, she's scary and unpredictable.
Sorath: what?! You people are evil. Anyway, I arranged something with Koenma. He gave me three free passages to the ningenkai for one day. In other words three of us go to the ningenkai and celebrate there! Isn't that fun, so maybe it doesn't seem that way but we'll get to see some of your friends from the dark tournament right?
Touya: I guess. . .
Sorath: anyway, I was going to bring Jin but he doesn't seem to be in the best of moods right now so I'll bring Rinku.
Chuu: 'ey! What about me?!
Sorath: there's way too many bars in the ningenkai for your own good. That's why.
Chuu: aww.
Sorath: anyway we had better get going. Oh and Touya, you kinda hafta put something a little more. . . human on for this, that was Koenma's only request. And that we didn't take over there but not like I was gonna do that anyway.
Touya: okay.
Rinku: see, I don't have to change, cuz I'm better.
Sorath: just put on a pair of jeans and t-shirt or something. I mean I have to change too.
Sorath stares to her short little dress with a few badly patched rips in it. it seemed to be glowing it was such a bright yellow.
Touya: okay, I'll be right back.
Sorath: me too.
Touya walks up to his room and Sorath just walks to the bathroom with a small orange bag in her hands.
A minute later Sorath came out sporting instead of her usual glowing bright outfit a simple yellow and orange plaid skirt and an orange camisole with a yellow sun on it.
Chuu: nice outfit. It seems ta fit ya well enough.
Sorath: thank you Chuu, unless that was sexual harassment in which I will punch your face in.
Chuu: no, not at all. I was just sayin' it seemed to fit your personality.
Sorath: okay.
At that moment Touya walked downstairs wearing a small black t-shirt and a pair of dark navy jeans. Sorath just smiles and picks Rinku up and puts him on her hip.
Rinku: I can walk ya know?!
Sorath: yeah but I think it will just make it all the more fun if we were to pretend we were related.
Rinku: okay . . . whatever you say.
Sorath: okay then! Let's go!
Sorath pulls out three necklaces without any charms on them. She slips one over Rinku's neck and over her own. Then she hands Touya one. He just holds it for a second then slides it over his own neck.
He blinks then the next moment finds himself standing the same way he was before but in a different spot. Sorath is still standing in front of him, smiling and holding Rinku. Rinku seems to be confused too.
Touya: where are we?
Sorath: ningenkai silly! We're just like, in an alleyway. C'mon.
Sorath leads Touya out from the dank alleyway and out to the bustling street. Touya just stares in surprise as he watches cars and people pass by.
Sorath just watches him and Rinku stare in awe for a moment then just pulls Rinku up her hip as he was sliding. He just wraps his arms around her waist protectively. Sorath smiles. Still a child at heart.
Sorath: well, places to go, people to see. Let's just get going.
Rinku: but where?
Sorath: it's a surprise. But just follow me and don't get lost! I won't be able to find you very well if you get lost. So just don't go wandering.
Touya: alright.
Sorath: good then. Let's get going!
Sorath just turns and walks along the sidewalk. Touya just follows her and watches as people stare at his odd hair and eyes.
Sorath seems to notice that she neglected to realaize that Touya had somewhat different eyes from normal humans.
Sorath: oh! You know what, we hafta wear sunglasses. I totally forgot.
Sorath just reaches into her purse and pulls out two pairs of sunglasses. She hands Touya one pair and he just stares at them for a moment.
Sorath pulls one pair of pink sunglasses to her face and they successfully hide her crème eyes. He just puts the sunglasses on and continues to follow Sorath through the crowd.
He continues to get funny looks from people but not nearly as many. They were just staring at his odd hair now. Eventually they make it to a tall apartment building and Touya and Rinku stare up at the tall building.
Rinku: is it just me or is it moving?
Sorath: it's just you. Now let's go inside.
Sorath pushes a button of the many and a voice answers from the intercom type thing.
Security Guard: what do you want?
Sorath: we would like to come in and get to one of our friends apartments. Room 716.
Security Guard: wait a moment.
A beep sounds and they walk inside to find a security guard sitting behind a desk thing. (you know like the things that security guards stand behind? With all the televisions.)
Security Guard: so you want to go to room 716?
Sorath: yes.
The female security guard stares oddly at Touya for a moment. Obviously wondering he was wearing such dark sunglasses inside. Touya had to admit it did make it very hard to see.
Then the security guard turned back to Sorath who was still holding Rinku on her hip.
Security Guard: so what are you're alls names?
Sorath: my name is Caroline, *tilts head in direction of Touya* his name is Chris, *pulls Rinku up her hip again so he doesn't fall off* and this is Mark.
Security Guard: *leaning closer to Rinku and smiling* oh, is he yours?
Sorath: *smiling sweetly* yeah, ours actually.
Sorath had to admit that she had to bite her lip from the startled expression Touya had on his face when she said that.
Security Guard: how old is he?
Sorath: he's seven.
Security Guard: okay, you can go on up. Seventh floor dear.
Sorath: thank you.
Sorath walks away towards the elevator stifling her laughter as Touya tried not to blush and Rinku looked discontented in her arms.
As soon as they both got on the elevator Sorath began laughing loudly. Touya and Rinku just glared at the doors.
Sorath: you should have seen the look on your face Touya! It was priceless. *snicker* what's wrong? Not happy with the thought of us being together?
Touya: let's just keep going.
The elevator doors then opened and they walked out into a hall with soft carpets with a few stains. They walked down the hall until they came to room 716 then Sorath knocked on the door eagerly.
A/N: who is it that they're going to meet here? Review and find out! Oh, and thanks to:
