ZeroCool.0: Thank you so much. And yeah, until now our laptop is in caos. But not that much anymore. I think my sister just updated the system, though, I'm not really sure. Hopefully. *sighs* I hate viruses! Anyway, here you go. And yeah for your question, I'm sorry but this is a get-together fic. So only a couple of ruhana sap scenes will appear. If I bring them together now, the fic ends. *avoids being blast to oblivion*

"This! This is all your fault Harold!" a small figure abruptly yelled pointing an accusing finger at his companion.
Harold sweat dropped. "But master I didn't-"
Cupid glared. "Of course you did! You didn't stop that arrow from hitting him! And now this! Why?! You're not suggesting that this is all MY fault, are you?" he challenged his eyes narrowing at first him then towards different places at a distance. Blue and other different colored eyes immediately clashed with his.
Harold, meantime, just cringed immediately shaking his head. His master did have temper after all…and yeah being a god although currently being a cute curse chibi god, he still have the proper shall we say authority to put him to the darkest abyss of Hades….
He shuddered.
"Well?!" Cupid snapped again interrupting him from his thoughts. "What do you plan to do now to fix this?!" he demanded stomping his foot impatiently. "We can't have all of them interfering with our objectives, now do we?" he finished glaring once more to all the eyes all around him (you know Rukawa and the others).
The eyes glared back although somewhat a little bewildered on why a cute chibi cheeky boy would glare at them. Of course, never mind the fact that they ArE the ones hiding behind…er… strange things.
Harold sweat dropped once more now remembering how impatient his master was nowadays and quickly deciding, bought… some more ice cream for his master. He shivered, though, as he felt the different scrutinizing glares land on him.
'Although' he thought. 'I really should do something about the pots they brought, the missing canal covers on the other street and how we would pay for such…' They can't have the world thinking, after all, that something weird is going on. (*grins*)
The mysterious man? Well, the mysterious forgotten man, on the other hand, could only stare and shrug, long ago deciding to go along with the flow. After all, they are his buddies now.
*chirp* *chirp*
*kwak* *kwak*
Okay fine, he has nothing to do anymore from his old job and would like to get this opportunity to get noticed. (^_^!)

SUNDAY 10:00 a.m.
"I think that all you'll need, ne Haruko-chan?" Hanamichi exclaimed happily while quickly shoving box of crayons, a carton fill with small containers of paint, canvas, a pack of brushes, and other bunches of art materials on a poor waiting salesman's hands. (*shrugs* can't think of anything else)
'Wow! Sakuragi is really very energetic' Haruko thought mentally while she watch Hanamichi gather the supplies and open the door for her. "But just the same, I think it's nice to have a friend who is very lively like Sakuragi-kun" she walked smiling.
"Eh? Did you say something, Haruko-chan?" Hanamichi asked scratching his head.
Turning at him, Haruko looked at him curiously. "Huh? Did I just say something what, Sakuragi-kun?"
Hanamichi shrugged.
"Oh! I must have been thinking aloud. I'm sorry, Sakuragi-kun" she said realizing her mistake.
Hanamichi just laughed out loud. "Nyahahaha! Don't worry about it, Haruko-chan! Nyahahaha! The Tensai likes to daydream too! Nyahaha! Anyway *blush* do you want to *blush* go eat *blush* ice cream, now, Haruko-chan?" he asked moments later while looking down at his shoes. "There's a ColdStone store down the street and I hear they good ice cream there. I promise it's my treat! The Tensai wouldn't have it any other way, of course!" he continued puffing his chest.
Haruko giggled but then frowned. "But are you sure, Sakuragi-kun? We need an awfully lot for the school project, don't we? Will you have-?"
"Nyahahaha! But of course, Haruko-chan! The Tensai has money for you! Nyahahaha!" he interrupted grinning.
Haruko smiled. "Okay then, Sakuragi-kun." she agreed following.
Suddenly,
Rukawa crushed a can of pepsi in the corner leaning. (ouch! That has got to hurt!)
Mitsui and Miyagi peeked from the flowerpots listening.
Cupid glared er -slurping. (they are beside an ice cream stand again remember)
While Harold and the mysterious man flinched.
*chirp* *chirp*
*kwak* *kwak*
Oh yeah…and a bunch of girls from the rooftops and trees narrowed their eyes. (*shrugs* they are very weird…)

Haruko swiftly shuddered.
"Eh? What is it, Haruko-chan?" Hanamichi asked worriedly. This was their first date, after all. 'He can't have HiS Haruko-chan feeling worried or becoming uncomfortable.' he thought setting their things in the table next to the window.
Haruko, meanwhile, hesitated. She was feeling anxious and uncomfortable since this morning but hasn't really thought about it. Now, however, it was as if the feeling was a hundred times stronger. It was if she could feel someone (more like a bunch of someone but she doesn't know that does she? *grins evilly*) was watching them and even angry with her! But that couldn't be true. She didn't have any enemies in school lately.
"Haruko-chan?" Hanamichi repeated again snapping her out of his thoughts.
Haruko just shook her head as she and Hanamichi began to take their seat. 'I really shouldn't worry, Sakuragi-kun so much on something not true' she decided mentally.
"No, nothing's wrong, Sakuragi-kun. I would just like to thank you again for inviting me for an ice cream. It's been a long time since someone invited me to come in an ice cream store." she answered making Hanamichi beam.
"Of course, Haruko-chan! The Tensai would do anything for you! Nyahahahaha! So *blush* what do you want to order, *blush* Haruko-chan? You can order anything you want, Haruko-chan," he said shyly. (hold on! Shyly?!)
Haruko smiled. Yup, her friend was really so sweet sometimes that it was hard not to smile and forgot all other worries whenever she was with him.
"Could I just have a chocolate sundae, Sakuragi-kun? It's been a while since I ordered it," she answered already forgetting the weird uncomfortable feeling she felt minutes ago.
Hanamichi immediately nodded enthusiastically.
"Okay then, Haruko-chan! Just wait for me and I'll get it for you!" he declared standing up.
Meanwhile,
Rukawa calmly sat at a bench in the other side of the street and began reading -the obituary ads vacancy.
Mitsui and Miyagi drooled at the site of the different pictures of ice cream displayed outside.
Cupid glared at his companions and his already finished ice cream cone angrily.
While Harold and the mysterious man cringed.
*chirp* *chirp*
*kwak* *kwak*
Yeah Yeah and, a bunch of girls hiding inside a parked truck brought out various dolls and began injecting it --- with VerY sharp needles.

Haruko winced.
"Are you alright, Haruko-chan?" Hanamichi worriedly asked immediately coming to sit beside Haruko.
Haruko just smiled sheepishly standing up.
"Ooops. I'm sorry, Sakurgai-kun. I don't know what came over me but it seems like I couldn't help to be clumsy today. I'm so sorry," she said gesturing to the spilt sundae on the floor.
Hanamichi eyes watered. Why! Haruko is really very nice. Even if it were clearly not her fault, (Hana-chan: Of course not!) she would always apologize to make him feel better!
"Sakuragi-kun? You're not angry are you? I'm really very sorry. If you want I could pay-" she asked while Hanamichi immediately interrupted.
"Nonsense, Haruko-chan! The Tensai said that he would pay for you and pay he will! Anything for you, Haruko-chan!" he said making Haruko smile once more.
'Uh-huh, there is no doubt about it, Sakuragi-kun is really a very nice friend.' she thought, suddenly feeling very glad.
Suddenly,
A newspaper was quickly crumpled at the site of two people sitting beside each other.
A couple of gasps broke as the site of some pEoPle entering the store.
Hanamichi and Haruko began to turn as a couple of large thuds, yelps and glasses breaking were heard.
Only to be met by the site of Rukawa safely standing beside a mount of legs and unconscious bodies.
And glaring at the two of them.
"Stay away from Hanamichi!" Rukawa muttered coldly.
So Harold did the only thing he could think of. He teleported.
All of them.
Sakuragi blinked. 'Did I just see an apparition of Kitsune?!' he wondered incredulously.
A/N: MUWAHAHAHAHAHA! Hey don't look at me. Where Rukawa got the can of pepsi and the one he had been reading or where the voodo dolls came from, I don't know!
So…what do you think? *smiling innocently* Didn't you guys say that you want Rukawa and the others to do something?
Oh yeah, I wonder if there really is a ColdStone there? *drools on ice cream* Next chapter --Desperate times call for desperate measures . I have a problem, though, how does Rukawa woe Hanamichi? Could anyone tell me?
Please read and review. *looks hopefully*
