"Did you see him? Wasn't he the most gorgeous guy ever??!!" gushed Misao.
"He was pretty cute," admitted Megumi.
"What do you think Kaoru, was he gorgeous or was he perfectly dreamy?" squealed Misao.
"He was hot..." said Kaoru absentmindedly.
"He was only hot?" shrieked Misao.
"Kaoru must like one of the others...Kenshin, right?" inquired Megumi coyly. Kaoru blushed and shook her head.
"I don't like Kenshin, how could I? Besides it doesn't matter if we like them we're guys Misao. And we're here to fight. Remember? That's why we cut off our hair," Kaoru sighed as she thought of her hair. Kaoru ran her fingers through her short crop.
"I'm sorry. I'll forget all about Aoshi and his dreamy blue eyes. You're right. It's pointless," conceded Misao. Kaoru smiled and put her arm around her friends shoulder.
"We've got two beds. Who's sharing?" asked Kaoru.
"Megs should have her own bed, I'm sure Sano will be joining her in a few hours," teased Misao.
"Oh shut up!" said Megumi blushing, "there is nothing going on between us. I just flirted a little to get us a room. And it worked."
"Yeah whatever you say. Let's just unpack," said Kaoru. So the girls began putting their things into the dressers, hoping that they'd stay long enough so that unpacking wouldn't be waste of time. Unpacking only took half an hour. So the girls had some time to kill. They headed into town to do a bit of exploring. Megumi separated from Kaoru and Misao for a while they were in a video game store proving their maleness. Megumi stepped into a wig shop and purchased three new wigs. Then Megumi ran off to visit a few more stores. She met up with her comrades and they ran to their hotel room. They reached the door when they realized that they weren't given keys.
"Great, just great. We've got to go to the preliminaries soon. We can't go there with shopping bags. This is just wonderful. Thanks so much Meg-" ranted Kaoru.
"Oh hello, you left without a key did you? No need to worry. I'm here, that I am. We'll be sure to get you guys some keys. Oh you went shopping, what did you buy?"
"Girl stuff," said Mitsuko.
"Uh...video games?" stammered Byushi.
"We're just going to go drop these things off in our room and then we can all go down together," said Mitsuko. Kenshin nodded and watched as they all walked into their room. They emerged a few seconds later and they joined Kenshin in the hallway. They stopped at the front desk and got a few more keys.
"Welcome the preliminaries! In the past we have done a punching strength test, but the machine keeps getting destroyed. So this year we're having a skill test. We have constructed an obstacle course maze that you all must complete in the 3-minute time limit. We will send you in 30 seconds apart. No direction will be given on how to complete the maze. So good luck," said the familiar announcer. Saito volunteered to go first.
"Hey Sano," shouted Saito, "this maze is a competition of the mind. It's too bad that you won't even make it to the fighting portion of the tournament. I'll help you pack rooster-head." With that Saito turned and sauntered into the maze. Not to be outdone by his nemesis Sano volunteered to follow him in. After a few minutes Kenshin's entire group had entered the maze.
"Do we get to know who made it out?" asked Riosuke.
"Not unless you make it out yourself," said the announcer. Two minutes later it was Riosuke's turn to enter the labyrinth.
