We didn't do anything, honest!!
It was raining. But instead of being bored, Kenji and Xien were excited. The rain just helped their great gag, not hamper it.
"Kenji, you ready for this?" Xien whispered.
"Definitely!"
Hiko and Kenshin rounded the corner. "What do you need to talk about with me Shishou?"
"Xien."
Xien's eyes narrowed, Why would they need to talk about me? Oh well, that's Kenji's signal. It'll have to wait for later.
Xien ran up to Kenshin. "Kenshin, I think supper's burning!"
Kenshin's eyes widened. "Are you sure? How do you know?"
Xien put on her most convincing puppy face. "I came in to chop some vegetables, and I saw smoke, but I didn't know what it was from, so I came and got you!"
Kenshin's eyes softened a little. How could someone so innocent be lying?
He smelled smoke now. "AAH!! I better be going, that I should!! Thank you for the tip off miss Xien!!!" He called out as he dashed off.
Hiko snorted. Things were amiss alright. He could almost smell it. Time to head back to his room.
Kenshin fought his way through the smoke. At this rate the whole dojo will burn down!!! He thought as he finally reached the source of the smoke, only to find himself following a floating supper out the window!! He reached out to catch it and found himself falling out the window!!!! A big plop, and then all was silent for the time being.
Xien looked up from she was on the roof holding their supper on the end of a fishing pole. Kenji flashed her a smile before disappearing with Hiko's sake under one arm from the other side of the dojo.
Now where'd I put that bottle of sake. Hiko thought to himself. In his advancing years, he found he forgot things more often. "I've been around people too long." He muttered, reaching for another bottle only to find them all gone.
"WHO TOOK MY DANG SAKE!!!!! XIEN, IF YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S BEHIND THIS, YOUR MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he roared, dashing from the room.
There it is, but it's floating? I happen to know that sake doesn't float, especially mine. He thought, making him ask himself if he had indeed, had too much to drink. Deciding not, he lunged at it, only to fall flat on his face. He repeated the process again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again.(you get the picture don't you?) Finally the time came that he just ran after it, cursing loudly. Thank God Kenji was as fast as Xien, otherwise he would have been caught long ago!! ;^,^
When he got to the other end of the dojo, he stopped, panting lightly. The sake hung enticingly a few feet ahead of him.
"If only I could reach it." He muttered for the umpteenth time, he lunged.
Only to be tripped by and invisible wire pulled taught by Xien. Another great plop, and Hiko was beside Kenshin, who was just getting up from his little excursion only to fall yet again into the mud with a huge squelch.
Kenji and Xien smiled and high fived silently on the success of their mission.
"Kenshin, old man, why're you two playin' around in the mud?" Sano asked, coming up and holding a squirming two year old Souzou and Megumi beside him.
Kenshin and Hiko looked at each other covered with mud. One thought came to mind.
"KENJI!!!!!"
"XIEN!!!!!!!!"
"We didn't do anything, honest!!!"
Kenji scrubbed the wall silently. Their punishment was to wash the dojo in the rain without any supper.
"I'm so hungry. That was sure a waste." Kenji moaned.
"I thought they were being merciful. I honestly thought we'd both be dead by now if I know Siejuro"
"Whatever."
"Would you quit that whatever crap? It's getting on- AAAHHH!!!
Kenji laughed. He'd ploughed Xien in the mouth with mud. His laughter was cut short though when he found mud in his mouth as well.
"Take that!!"
"Ha!! How about this!!"
A mudfight ensued, which Kenji won when Xien slipped, plastering mud over the both of them.
Shaking the mud from her eyes, she looked up to where Kenji was standing above her, a big grin spread across her face. "Anyway, we should do that again!!"
Kenji smirked. "I think it's time for a little payback."
AN/ I hope it lives up to all of your guys's expectations!! Katie, thanx for reviewing again!!!! This is for you guys!!! Did you know I essentially make these up of the top of my head as I write? For some reason I could see Kenshin and Hiko following floating supper and sake.~,^ And what did Hiko mean when he needed to talk about Xien? Hmmm, I wonder.. You'll find out next chapter!!!! So read to find out!!Well, that's it for now. see ya next chapter!!!
