A GAME OF SOLDIERS: CHAPTER 3!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~

Delicate, feather like snowflakes danced and twirled past the window. Yubaba sighed. *If I had known that they'd be this much trouble* she thought *I never would hav agreed....*She turned to sit at her desk.

Suddenly, the doors slammed wide open and a twitching, panting figure stood there for a minute, before carrying on running.

"H-I-Y-U-B-A-B-A-M-E-R-R-Y-C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S-B-Y-E!!!!!!!!!!!" Yelled Cassie, as she ran towards the fireplace, jumped throught the hole in the floor and thudded against the boiler room planks, before hurtling off again.

Before Yubaba had time to register this, the doors slammed open again. She winced at the sound of splintering wood. She then noticed the figure in the doorway. It was....well it used to be known as Haku, but on this occasion it looked like a wet, pink thing. Yubaba blinked. Again. before bursting into peals of laughter. "What did you do this time?!" she said, sniggering.

"I slept in...."he growled. He then shot across the carpet and down the hole, after Cassie. Yubaba sat down at her desk and put her head in her hands. *I'm going to need new doors......* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~

Workers turned and smiled in amusement as their master Haku shot down the corridoors, pursueing his quarry. Cassie skidded to a halt and bolted into the girls' bathing rooms. She collapsed in a heap at the feet of four beanbags, each occupied. Annamaria looked over the edges of her reading glasses at the lump at her feet. She nudged it with her foot. "So!" she said brightly, "how'd it go?". She was wearing brown, flared cordroys(A/Nsp?), and a baggy, offwhite shirt. She wore brown, summer sandles, and she had long, dark hair with even darker eyes.

"Yeah, how did he react?" The ever witty Ebony glnced at her, before going back to chatting with one of the yuna. She had black hair with silver tips, and silvery gray eyes. She wore a black, baby tee, with a purple fallen angel on the back. She had black trackkies that said 'BITCH' in pink writing across the bum. She had purple and silver sneakers.

" It must have been bad; you look like you were running away from death itself!" Remarked the blonde. Lizzi. She had shimmering blue eyes, and she wore a baby blue strap top with 'Soooooo not listening' on the front in pink. She had a baby pink skirt and white sneakers.

Her friend smirked. She had long, dark red hair streaked with black, and black eyes. She wore a red belly top with miffy on it. She had flared, maroon cordroys, and went bare foot. " She probobly was." Said Jess.

Cassie laughed. She was wearing black flared jeans with a emerald and white dragon weaving around one leg (A/N : we can all guess who that is can't we? lol!). She also wore a belly top, only hers was deep purple.

" Hey! You guys! I have an idea. Come here!" said Ebony, beconing them over to the door. They put their ears against the wood. They heard the liquid sound of Haku transforming, and then the whoosh of him flying through the roof. " Quickly!" she said beconing them out of the door. they left the door open and hid behind it in the corridoor. They placed their hands on the handle of the door, ready to slide it back.

With a mighty roar, Haku stormed through the window. "NOW!" yelled Ebony. Just as he was coming towards them, they slid the door shut. *SMACK* . . . *THUD*. The girls all laughed and cheered. " C'mon " gasped Jess, and they all staggered down the hall, laughing their heads off. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~

They ended up in the boiler room, and, after a few misguided attempts, they managed to land in a pile in the middle of the floor. Rin came in and giggled. " What happened to YOU?" she snickered. So, with the chatty lizzi's help, Cassie explained their situation. Rin grinned evilly. "I have an idea....."

Kamaji, at those four words, looked TERRIFIED........ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ Woo! my longest chappi yet! as always, my friends, R&R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! luv Tsu
