Disclaimer: Hah! I own two issues of Shonen Jump with Hikaru No Go in it so….

I still and probably never will own Hikaru No Go and anything related to it. (HikaruNo GoisthesolepropertyofTakeshiObata,YumiHottaandanyotherpersonwhoownsthemand wasn'tmentioned.Resultsmayvary,nopurchasenecessary,voidwhereprohibited.

(BTW: I went to a character bio to find the name of someone who will appear later and I found out that, that kid who used to cheat at Go's name can also be Mitani (for people new to Hikaru No Go. But, I used the name Yuuki because I found it on another Bio so,

Yuuki=Mitani just in case you don't know!)

Chapter 3

            "Well this is great…", Hikaru said to Sai as he left to go home, "I'm goin' to a dance in about four days and I have no idea how to dance or what the heck I'm supposed to do there…" He sighed deeply then said, "Maybe I'll just …NOT show up! I'll say I had to stay home 'cause I was sick!"

            "I don't know, Hikaru…" Sai told him, "Remember what happened last time you faked sick?"

            Hikaru thought a moment. He then recalled how he got sick anyway from the overdose of unneeded medicine his mom stuffed his face with and saw five of everything. Also, how he also missed, "Surprise School Fair Day", too. He cringed. "Okaaaaay…" Hikaru thought, "I'll umm…"

            Sai interrupted his thought. "Why don't you just go there?" Hikaru was amazed by this statement but then smirked and said, "How are you supposed to play Go?"

            Sai smiled without explanation and said," Some things are more important than Go…" Hikaru scowled at this, and was even more amazed by what Sai had said. "Fine I'll go to your crummy dance…but I won't like it!"

            Deep within him, however, this chance to be with Akari was secretly as important to him as Go itself is.

            After school the next day, Hikaru made his way home. He was especially mad because he had to deal with seeing Yuuki in the hall getting people to place bets whether or not Hikaru and Akari kiss during the dance and getting teased by half the class about the supposed "flirting" that took place the day before.  "That's it!" Hikaru exclaimed suddenly, "I'm not going to that dance! Besides, it's not like you could catch me dead on the dance floor, anyway…"

            "Well what's so wrong with dancing?"

            "Well the first thing is, when it comes to dancing, I have two left feet." Hikaru admitted. Sai gasped. "You do?!" Wow!" He then looked down at Hikaru's shoes. "Sai that's a—"

            "Well I can teach you!" Sai said, enthusiastically. Hikaru took on an expression of complete horror. "You? Teach me how to dance??"

            "What?" Sai questioned. It was his turn to be annoyed. Hikaru laughed then said between laughs," O-Ok go on and try…"

            "Okay!" The ghost responded, and they continued on their path home.

            Akari walked home slowly, taking advantage of this quiet time to think. "Hmm…", she thought aloud diligently," I just realized I have no idea how dance at all…"

            "I could teach you…" Akari turned around and saw Yuuki behind her. "You can…?" She asked, making sure. "Mm-hmm…" He nodded and smiled.

            Meanwhile back at Hikaru's house, Sai had nearly killed Hikaru as he instructed him. "Hikaru, you look like you've got something in your pants… Are you Ok?"  His concerned mother asked.

            "Yeah. It's gone now." Hikaru said sarcastically. His mom walked off mumbling something about kids and their crazy rituals. "Oh forget it… I'm calling this whole date—err dance thing off…"

            Sai said, disappointed, "fine… I'll let you find your mistake for yourself…"

            As Hikaru walked to Akari's house, he pondered what Sai meant by that.

            "She's at that other kid's house learning how to dance…" Akari's sister told Hikaru when he asked to speak to Akari.  Hikaru was surprised by this and said," What?! Akari doesn't know how dance, either??"

Akari's sibling smirked and said," Well do you know how to dance?"

"No." Hikaru said flatly. "C'mon I'll teach ya how we dance at my high school…" She said, grinning deviously and before he had a chance to react, was pulled inside by the wrist and began his dancing lesson of doom.

            Akari was tired from her dancing education from Yuuki, but she thought it was worth it. "I hope Hikaru is learning how to dance, too…." She thought aloud again. As she approached her house, she heard her sister's dance music being played. "I hope she'll be able to hear me knock on the door…" Akari said. To her surprise, the door was unlocked. She pushed the door open a bit. What she saw made her gasp. She had caught Hikaru in an "intimate" position with her older sister. Akari yelled, "Hikaru?! What's going on? What are you doing with my sister?!" Hikaru  turned to see Akari in the doorway, just standing there, she looked terrified. "She was teaching me how to dance! I swear!" Hikaru said quickly. As quickly as Hikaru said this, however, it still wasn't fast enough for Akari to hear, for she turned and ran straight out the door, never for one second turning around.

Ok…. So that's chapter 3! Hope you enjoyed it! * looks at the readers expectantly * Well….? Review!
