ON WITH MY 770 WORD CHAPTER! WOOT!

CHAPTER TEN
In which it ends in very few sentences

The trio arrived at Capsule Corp about an hour later.

"Stay back, Shadow. Don't let them see you or we have no chance of getting the time machine," Kurama said.

"Yes, Your Highness," Shadow said, bowing deeply. "I am ever-so-humble in your presence. Please bless me with your child."

Shadow was promptly cracked in the head with a baseball bat by a certain annoyed fire demon.

"Now is no time to be an idiot, Shadow!"

"What are you talking about? She's always an idiot. It can't be helped," Kurama said. Shadow smiled.

"That's why I like him."

Hiei rolled his eyes. "How are we gonna go about this?"

"Direct approach," Kurama said, pressing the button on the intercom.

"Hello?" came a man's voice shortly.

"Trunks?" Kurama asked.

"Yes... Do I know you?"

"You know someone I know. We need to talk to you."

"About what?"

"It's important."

"That doesn't tell me anything."

"Look, could we come in?" Kurama said. "This is extremely important and I'm sure we can make a deal or something."

"A deal? What do you want?"

Shadow let out a disgusted sigh and stepped forward to say something, but Kurama slapped his hand over her mouth.

"We just want to talk to you. Really, it will only take ten minutes of your time," Kurama said.

"Who is 'we'?"

"Myself and two friends."

"Well, I suppose. I'm not very busy anyway."

"Marvelous!"

The door opened and Hiei led them in. Kurama still had his hand clamped over Shadow's mouth to keep her completely silent. Trunks walked into the room.

"Get out!" he said the instant his eyes settled on Shadow.

"Wait! Trunks, she's not going to steal anything this time. Believe me, we can keep control of her."

"What do you want? My time machine?"

"Well, in a manner of speaking... We need to use it," Kurama said.

"There's eight people from 1880 in my living room at home," Hiei said. Trunks looked at them.

"Two conditions. One, I have to be the one operating it, and two, that girl can NOT be anywhere NEAR IT."

"Oh. That's fine. Seriously, it'll be no problem. Thanks a million," Kurama said.

"Where's my dad?" Trunks asked.

"Ah. Well, he is currently incapacitated, but he's getting better," Kurama said nervously. "Seriously. He'll be fine."

"Let's just go. I don't want those people in my house any longer than necessary," Hiei said. "They're there alone with Eclipse. That's bad."

"Yes. Let's go," Kurama said. Trunks got his time machine ready and they flew back to Shadow and Hiei's house.

Once there, Shadow ran into the house to make sure it hadn't been blown up (of course she was too stupid to realize that if it had blown up she would have been able to tell OUTSIDE). All she found was a group of very bored-looking people in 1880 clothes.

Eclipse and Sanosuke were playing some card game and gambling, Saitou was staring out the window, Aoshi was staring out another window, Hiko was looking very bored and watching Eclipse and Sano, and Kenshin, Kaoru, Yahiko, and Megumi were having some conversation about something.

"Woot! You guys get to go home! Of course, I can't see you off cuz Trunks hates me, probably because I killed his father, but Hey! Who cares, you know? Now get out of my house!" Shadow said.

"Finally," Saitou mumbled.

"What was that, old cricket?" Shadow asked, crossing her arms.

"I said 'Finally' because I am happy I'm finally getting away from you, Risu-saru."

"I AM NOT A SQUIRREL, OR A MONKEY, OR, WHILE WE'RE ON THE SUBJECT, A SQUIRREL-MONKEY!" Shadow screamed.

"That's nice."

"Okay everyone, let's get in the time machine so you can get home. I'm sure you're all rather glad, ne?" Kurama said. "I'll be going with you, since Hiei and Shadow don't trust Trunks and he doesn't feel safe around them. Anyway, let's go."

Shadow and Hiei stood there while the entire mob of 1880-ers passed them by. As Saitou passed Shadow, he couldn't resist hissing "Risu-saru" under his breath. Shadow lunged at him and attempted to bite out his throat, but he knocked her backwards and hurried out the door, because she's freaky and evil.

"WOOT! They're finally gone! MY LIFE IS BACK TO NORMAL!" Shadow screeched, watching the time machine lift off and vanish.

"Sort of. You've got a Ziploc bag full of goo that was once a man in your basement, and we have no clue what to do with it," Hiei said.

"I'll feed it to the weasels," Shadow said, shrugging.

"Oh. Well that's fine. Go for it."

"I will."

And so concludes the rather long story about the bishies. This chapter was an all-time short for this story, but there wasn't much to say. Kurama gets back okay. Trunks... well, for some reason he doesn't come back when Vegeta never shows up at home again. He's probably afraid of Shadow and says, "Screw it. Who cares if she's keeping my father locked in her basement and feeding him moldy rice? At least I'm safe."

Arrogant twit.

So anyway, they all live happily ever after.

However, there's gonna be quite a few added weird things at the end of this story (why this one and no others I don't know. But there will be. Never fear. I found some goofy stuff I wrote when I first started this story. It was written on notebook paper and lost in the deep dark recesses of a folder in my room (evil room), but I found it recently and I'm gonna type it up and add it as a goofy thing at the end of this story. Sooooo, woo. Anyway, until later, keep your face fixed on the computer screen and read all the rest of my other stories. There's about 15 others, isn't there? Not all are done, but they're there...
