A word from Penny and Tsukasa: Hi everyone! I'm glad you decided to read our fanfic ^^ This is the first chapter of our Shishio gumi storyline, a joint collaboration. We warn you, most of the story takes quotes, references, and phrases from a variety of different sources. Even though the main story takes place in the Rurouni Kenshin world, many characters come from other series entirely. Meant to be comic, this story is light hearted. Read and have fun. If not, you know where the back button is on your browser ^_~ With that said, on to the chaos!!

This is the story before the story; a recreation of life on Mt. Hiei before the Kyoto Arc. The Shishio gumi's saga begins here:
Life in Kyoto after the Bakamatsu was peaceful. Towering over the city is Mt. Hiei, secret layer and home to the most cunning evil of all Japan. It's spring, birds can be heard singing across the morning's dawn, and Sakura trees are in full blossom, their pink petals raining down with a slight breeze.
Inside the Mountain, Shishio can be seen sitting in his "thrown room". Yumi, Soujiro, and Hoji are standing next to him.
"Hahahaha, HAhaha, HAHAHAHA!" Shishio laughs evilly. "Ah, this is the life! Battousai the Manslayer's days are numbered. Soon, I will conquer him and then Japan. Mwahahahaha!" He stops laughing abruptly. "YUMI! Get me a glass of water, I'm starting to overheat!"
Yumi: Right away, Shishio-sama!
Hoji: *after Yumi leaves the room* That mummy's so hot right now.
Soujiro: Gaa!?!
Hoji: He's like a FIRECRACKER!
Shishio: Shut up Hoji, who asked you?!
Yumi: I'm back. Here you go Lord *she hands him a glass of water*
Shishio: You call that quick? *gulps down the water* Ahhh!
Yumi: ...
Shishio: I'm going to walk around a bit *he gets up and leaves the room*
Later, Hoji's searching for Shishio who is wandering around aimlessly somewhere in the mountain hideout.
Hoji: *panting* Sir, I finally found you. wheezehackwheeze (not a typo)
Shishio: What do you want Hoji?
Hoji: Sir, I tried to stop him but couldn't.
Shishio: Stop who?
Hoji: Aoshi…your bedroom…
Shishio pushes Hoji away violently and rushes to his bedroom. As he opens the door, the music from the Psycho shower scene plays in the background. He sees Aoshi with a paint brush in his hand.
Aoshi: HI!!! (he says it in an unusually high squeaky voice…It was very squeaky.)
Shishio: *looks down at his bed* I…it…it's Hello Kitty!!???
Aoshi: Yup! :)
Shishio: My walls have been painted purple!!?!?
Aoshi: Actually, it's periwinkle!
Shishio: What gave you the idea to do this!! *he's furious*
Aoshi: Surprise by Design! Ever watch it? SURPRISE AHA!!
Shishio: *goes to strangle Aoshi but steps on a fuzzy purple carpet* AAAHHHHH! What is this?
*Hoji finally catches up*
Hoji: Sir, it looks like shag carpet.
Aoshi: Yup!
Soujiro stands in the doorway.
Soujiro: What happened?
Aoshi: Hey Sou-chan! Like it?? I did it myself!
Soujiro: GAA! @_@
Shishio: Get out of here Aoshi before I kill you with my bare hands!
Aoshi: *pouts* Hmph. Fine mister bandage pants. *leaves the room with his head low*
Shishio: HOJI!
Hoji: Yessir.
Shishio: Here *shoves a bucket of black paint into his hands* Clean up!
Hoji: Yessir!
Shishio stomps out of the room in a terrible mood. But then… Shing, shing, shing, shing (as the camera goes in and out of focus)…DUM DuM dUm…dramatic reverb…
To be continued…AHA!
