Hello again, everyone! Welcome to another chapter of my sad little attempt to continue the series through my own vision. Oh, and HinaGuy749, I checked out 'Moment of Change' last night and wow… That's kind of scary. I had never even heard of that fanfic until you had pointed it out. I certainly hope that there isn't any misunderstanding, but that was kind of shocking. Now I can see how two people can have similar ideas and someone is accused of stealing ideas, but the accused one claims that they didn't. Wow…

Anyway, I think I may be able to actually extend this story another chapter or 2. But once again, we'll just have to see!

Love Hina Next

Chapter 35: When Sugar Becomes Spice!

The trio of Yamato, Tokimi, and Rikina continued to walk through the forest, no longer holding hands. Rikina was still clad in nothing but her bra and thong underwear, making Yamato a little uncomfortable. Rikina was running ahead of them, giving Yamato an eyeful. He gulped nervously. "Um, Rikina? Do you really think it was a good idea to leave your clothes back there?"

Rikina stopped and turned around. She smiled. "Yeah, those clothes were through…" She pouted, putting her hands behind her head. "Too bad, though… I really liked that dress…"

Tokimi growled, looking at her dirty clothes. She sighed. "Um, could you wait up a bit? I need to change…" She suddenly ran through a group of small trees.

Yamato and Rikina stared at the group of trees for a few seconds, confused. Rikina stared at Yamato lustfully. "So, Yamato… What do you want to do while she's gone?" She ran over to him and hugged him tight.

Yamato's eyes widened. "Um, Rikina! What are you doing?!"

Rikina stared into Yamato's eyes. "Hasn't it become obvious to you? Both me and Tokimi and are madly in love with you!"

Yamato raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, I kind of noticed that… But still, we shouldn't do this in the middle of the jungle!"

At that moment, Tokimi popped out of the trees, wearing a leaf bikini. "Do WHAT in the middle of the jungle, huh?" She walked over to them, carrying her crocodile skin belt and purse.

Yamato's eyes widened. "Wow, Tokimi! You look really hot in that leaf bikini! Where'd you get the idea for that?"

Tokimi smiled and blushed, putting her belt on so she wouldn't have as much to carry. "Really? Oh, I saw in in this really old catalog that I found in Naru's old room that I'm staying in!"

Rikina smirked. "Nice… A leaf bikini? Might as well wear a sign that says; 'Go for me! I'm easy!'"

Tokimi glared. "Oh, you have no right to talk, Rikina! You've been all over Yamato and attempting to seduce him in your underwear this whole trip! Since when did you become so, I dunno, 'slutty' anyway?"

Rikina shrugged. "I lightened up, that's all…" She stared at Tokimi. "You, on the other hand, have become really uptight and loud. You're a lot like Naru now, actually…" She smiled. "On the other hand, it's good that you're speaking out for yourself more often, now…"

Yamato suppressed a huge grin, thinking to himself in glee. 'What luck! I'm lost in a forest with two really hot half naked chicks and they're both crazy over me! This is great…' He suddenly lost himself and smiled. He was punched in the head by both girls.

"And what the hell are you smiling about, huh?!" they both screamed, breathing heavily.

Meanwhile, Shin Puffy Mushroom was walking through some tall grass. Kaolla looked around, then saw someone up ahead. "Hey! I see something!" She pointed towards a group of people and ran toward them, taking out a flashlight and turning it on.

Shinobu reached out. "Kaolla, wait! What if there are cannibals?!"

A cannibal screamed out. "Holy shit, it's Kaolla Su! Ruuuun!!" The cannibals dropped a cage that they were carrying and ran away, crying.

Kaolla laughed, crossing her arms. "Nyahaha! See, nothing to worry about!"

Sarah, running up with Nina still on her back, sweat dropped. "Um, Kaolla? Why were those cannibals so afraid of you?"

Kaolla blushed slightly. "Oh, let's just say that when I was younger, I caused some havoc when I was shipwrecked on this island once…"

Shinobu sighed. "Oh well, at least we won't have to worry about any cannibals…"

A voice came from the cage that had been dropped. "Um, if it wouldn't be any trouble, could someone please get us out of here?"

"Hey, that sounded like Kanako!" Shinobu yelled.

"That's because it is me…" Kanako muttered. "Nyamo is in here, too… Let us out!"

Kaolla pulled out a laser and burned through the bamboo cage. "Watch you fingers! And any other body part for that matter…"

"Hey! Watch it with the laser!" Kanako yelled, her single antennae almost getting cut by the laser. She smiled as the bamboo cage opened and she and Nyamo crawled out. "Well, um… Thanks…"

Kaolla nodded. "No problem!"

-----

Meanwhile, the homosexual cannibals and Kitsune had finally reached the city. It was now very dark, and it was hard to see anything. Until they had actually gotten into the city, that is. The cannibals carried Kitsune over to a huge throne with an escalator to the top. Kitsune sweat dropped. "Um, how tall are these goddesses?"

The cannibals stared at the throne, also sweat dropping. "I don't know…" the one in yellow replied. "We haven't seen these goddesses yet…" They all went up the escalator, looking at their watches. It took about 10 minutes to get up there.

Kitsune gasped as she saw the 'goddesses'. "Ami? Meiruuna?"

Ami and Meiruuna, dressed in white and black bikini's with matching capes respectively, looked to Kitsune. Ami smiled. "Kitsune! What are you doing here?"

Kitsune chuckled. "Well, I was looking for Yamato and Rikina when I was captured by these two!"

Ami giggled. "Oh, okay! Let her go, she's a friend!"

The two cannibals bowed and let Kitsune out of her cage. She walked up to the two sisters. "Wow, you sure made it up in the world! When did this happen?"

Ami glared at Meiruuna, then whispered to Kitsune. "Well my sister over here blew somebody up, and now these cannibals treat us like goddesses!"

Meirruna, who had eavesdropped, chuckled. "Well, don't you like all this power?"

Ami frowned. "Well… Maybe a little bit… But I don't know…"

Meiruuna grinned. "Think about it this way… You could use your power over these cannibals to search out for your enemies and destroy them…"

Ami stared at her sister. "You are just evil, you know that? Besides, I don't hate anyone!"

Meiruuna smirked. "Oh really? Not even those who stand in between you and your 'Yamato-sama'?"

Ami nodded. "I'm completely over it! I'm not upset at all!" She smiled, then burst out crying. "Waaaah! I'm miserable! I want Yamato-sama!" She suddenly went evil again. "Someone bring the one known as Yamato!" She glared at the yellow cannibal. "Send a message! I want the want known as Tokimi captured and brought to me!"

Kitsune and Meiruuna's eyes widened. "Whoa, little Ami just did a 180!" Kitsune yelled, a bit surprised.

Ami grinned evilly. "With Tokimi out of the way, it will only be a matter of time before I get Rikina out of the way and I'll be unopposed!"

Kai rolled his eyes. "Hey, genius… Wouldn't it be easier to just capture both Tokimi and Rikina?"

Ami glared at the black bunny. "Silence! You dare question my authority?"

Kai whimpered and backed away from her. "I'll be good!"

Meiruuna began to laugh. "Wow, she's even eviler than me right now!"

Just then, the 'Supporting Characters' were dumped at Ami and Meiruuna's feet. Jin stood up and smiled. "Hey! It's Ami and Meiruuna! What are you doing here?"

Shirai and Static sweat dropped. Ami growled at Jin. "Fool! Don't speak unless spoken to!"

Jin glared. "Ami, what's gotten into you?"

Ami smiled evilly. "What do you mean? Everything is just fine!" She glanced back at the cannibals dressed in royal blue. "Servants! Lock these prisoners up!"

Kitsune and the others gasped as they were captured and dragged off. "H-hey! What are you doing?!"

Ami crossed her arms. "Now, now… Can't have anyone warning the others, now can we?"

Meiruuna smiled. "Ooh, I like your style!"

Tenshi, completely powerless, sighed to herself. 'Ami-dono, why are you doing this?…'

-----

Meanwhile, Ema and Mutsumi had already been captured and were in a boiling pot. Fortunately for them, it hadn't been boiling for very long. Mutsumi giggled. "Oh my, it certainly was nice of them to give us a bath! Oh, doesn't this feel nice, Ema?"

Ema screamed. "Mutsumi, don't you get it? They are cannibals and want to cook us!" She began to hyperventilate. "Oh god, I don't want to die like this!"

"Argh, shut up!" A random cannibal screamed. "Ugh, the ditzy one keeps saying stuff about some hot springs at Heehaha House or something, and the other keeps screaming and yelling! I think I've lost my appetite…"

"Me, too…" another cannibal muttered. "Wanna save 'em for later?"

"Ah'right…" He put out the fire. "Hey, guess what? You get to live a little longer!"

"Yay!" Ema cheered, raising her hands into the air.

Mutsumi pouted sadly. "Awww, bath time is over?"

-----

Elsewhere, Keitaro was still studying random artifacts that he kept finding while the others waited. Haruka stared impatiently at her watch. "Keitaro, how much longer will this take?"

Keitaro, not looking away from his work, answered her. "Keep your shirt on, old lady, I'm trying to learn the language of this place… I've gotten half of the alphabet down so far." He yelled as he was kicked in the head. "Ow!"

Haruka glared down at him. "Don't call me 'old lady', you hear? I know you're smarter than that…"

Keitaro simply smiled at her. "Alright, just don't kick me again…"

-----

Meanwhile, with the group of Tokimi, Rikina, and Yamato…

The trio was now drudging their way through the desert. Tokimi fanned herself with her hand. "Ugh, what time is it? It's a good thing that it's nighttime or we would be screwed…"

Rikina nodded. "Even though we're both wearing next to nothing…"

Yamato, who had lagged behind for obvious reasons, stared at the girls walking ahead of him. "Yeah, isn't it great?"

Both Tokimi and Rikina looked back and smiled at Yamato, distracting him and making him walk into a cacti. They gasped and ran over to him. "Yamato!"

"Are you alright?" Tokimi asked.

Yamato chuckled, looking up at them, covered in cacti needles. "Yeah, I'm fine… Stings like hell, though…"

Tokimi and Rikina smiled. "Oh, Yamato…"

-----

Back in the city, Tenshi glared in determination. "Alright, that's it!" She suddenly flew away, off to find Tokimi and warn her.

Ami's eyes widened. "Tenshi! You get back here, now! Bad bunny!" She gave up and sat in her seat. "Oh well, she'll never make it in time…" She looked over to Meiruuna. "Sister, give me your bunny… I need something to pet…"

Meiruuna shook her head. "No way… You should have had a better grip on your bunny…"

Ami growled. "NOW!"

Meiruuna surrendered Kai over to Ami, who in turn began to scream. "No, mommy! I don't want to go over to her!"

Ami smiled and began to tightly hug Kai, squeezing the life out of the poor rabbit.

-----

Elsewhere, the Aoyama's were now surrounded by cannibals. They simply smirked at the futile attempt to capture them. Motoko looked over to Sukyuzo, then to Kimomo. "Want to test out that new technique we put together?" They both nodded.

They unsheathed their swords, the black aura from Motoko's 'Hina' blade spreading forth across her families swords. Then at he same time, they flicked their wrists. "Triple Burn-Up Blade!" The aura spread over the cannibals, making them hallucinate their worst fear. The cannibals either ran away screaming or fell to the ground, twitching violently. Either way, the Aoyama family was free to go. They ran in the opposite direction before the illusion wore off.

-----

Back with the 'Two Girls, One Guy' group, Tokimi and Rikina were plucking needles out of Yamato. "God, you can be so clumsy…" Rikina muttered, yanking a needle out of his arm.

"Ow!" Yamato screamed. "Watch it!" He rubbed his arm carefully, then yelped as Tokimi plucked one from his nose.

"Sorry!" Tokimi yelled, wincing. "Wow, so many needles… But we're almost done…"

They happily laugh at the recent memory of Yamato walking into a cacti plant. However, they had no idea that they were to soon be ambushed…

End of Chapter 35

Eh, sorry about this chapter being shorter than the last two. I haven't been feeling very well today. Hopefully it won't get worse, but it's mostly just a little headache. Anyway, guess I'll seeya Monday!
