Fox's Name Part 7

For what seemed the millionth time that week, I woke up from unconsciousness. As the clockworks in my head went around I shouted out the most obvious thing ever. "I LIVVVVVEEEEE!" If people had been in the room, I bet they would have jumped at least ten feet in the air. Just imagine a peaceful person asleep on a bed suddenly shouting "I LIVE". (( I crack myself up sometimes.)) With a burst of energy, I jumped out of bed feeling VERY hyper. Goodness knows where I got the energy from!

"It's peanut butter jelly time! Peanut butter jelly time! Peanut butter jelly time! Wayac! Wayac! Wayac! My dago! Dago! Dago! Dago! Peanut butter jelly! Peanut butter jelly! Peanut butter jelly! Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat! Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat! Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat! Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat!" Then I paused. I was singing that while dancing all over the room. ((Ever seen that flash?)) I paused only for a minute and that was because my shoulder started to hurt. I growled at it and it stopped hurting. Either that or else I was ignoring it to a level of not knowing I was in pain. I prefer to think that my growl scared the pain away.

"I AM VERY HYPER!" I shouted and ran around the room. In the middle, I looked around at all the space. "Hmmm." I considered. Then I did some funky monkey like stuff! I did a forward roll and jumped up "I am the all mighty Fox! All must bow down to my skills!" Then I did some SERIOUS funky monkey like stuff. I did a round off, back handspring, back handspring, into a back tuck. "I am da BOMB!" I said and did a dive forward roll onto my bed. I love gymnastics! I grinned hysterically.

At that moment the door open and someone peeked into the room. It was a girl with neon baby blue hair who was wearing a pink kimono. She gave me the look. Yes, that look. The one where you know they can tell you're insane. I had no idea why… Come on! All I was doing was laughing evilly... After a second, I finally noticed her and composed myself immediately.

"I assume you're all right. I'm Botan!" The blue haired girl introduced herself.

"I'm Fox, but you knew that."

"I know I did, but-" She began, but I cut her off.

"But what am I?"

"Are you feeling ok?"

"Never could be better." I said smiling and giggling. It was one of those contagious laughs. I started laughing and then she started laughing because I was laughing. Our laughter rang through the hall outside the room. Someone walking by stopped and looked in. It was Hiei. ((Dun dun dun)))

Seeing him, but not realizing who he was, I ran over and gave him and hug. "It's a walking cuddle toy! Sooooooooo CUTE!" I let go of him to get a better look at him and finally realized who it was. "AAHHHH! I JUST HUGGED A WALKING CUDDLE TOY THAT LOOKS LIKE HIEI!" Then I paused. I looked at Botan who was cracking up hysterically. I grinned evilly. I was thinking of how to torture the walking cuddle toy that looked like Hiei. It would be fun. When I looked back at him though, it looked like he was restraining from killing me. "Aha! Feeling dangerous? Come here then!" I grinned, moved Botan out of the room and pushed Hiei in and locked the door. By then Botan could stop laughing enough to talk.

"Uh fox?"

"Yeah?"

"That wasn't a toy. It really was Hiei." I stared at Botan with horror. "I suggest that you should start running right now!" Without a second's pause, we raced away from the room as fast as we could while dodging all the people and things in the hall. Sadly, during the run, we got separated. 'Maybe he will go after her and I will be spared…' I thought hopefully.

I was wrong. As I turned around I saw a pair of angry red eyes staring up at me. I scream, "The cuddle toy that looks like Hiei is after me! I DON'T WANNA DIE!"

In a split second I found myself on the floor and Hiei standing above me with a sword. I was suddenly enlightened and grinned at him. He might be armed, but I was legged. So kicked him in the crotch really hard, got up, and ran like hell down the hall as he fell to the floor.

At one point, I turned around to look behind me and found Hiei charging at me again, more angry than before. I could tell he was about to kill me, but unexpectedly I stubbled into my savior. Who was it? KURAMA!

I knelt before him. "Kurama, you are my hero! I will not have to die today!" I gave Kurama a hug and stuck my tongue out at Hiei. Kurama blushed, but then regained his normal calm being.

"What's going on?"

"Hn."

"That isn't helpful Hiei."

"Hn."

"I can tell you!" I said! "I was doing all sorts of things in my room- cause I was really hyper when I woke up- and met Botan, who started laughing with me. Then a walking cuddle toy walked by and so I gave it a cuddle! What else are you supposed to do? Then I realized that it looked like Hiei and thought he wasn't real and locked him in my room. Then Botan told me to run and so we ran like fire and got separated. Hiei came after me and attacked me. I kicked him in the nuts and got away. Then I ran into you right when he was about to kill me. Then I started to explain about how I was really hyper whe-" Kurama wasn't listening. He had the most oddest expression. It was as if he was trying to stop himself from laughing, but was failing dismally. Hiei looked at me with pure loathing.

"You will die."

"Not yet! I'm too young to die! All I did was give you a cuddle!" For some odd reason, Hiei's face turned red and I laughed. "I know! You like me!" I giggled. Hiei turned redder and said, "Hn." Then he walked away.

I started to laugh hysterically again. I saw Kurama was no longer in fear of laughing. I had to so something about it.

"Did you know that smiles are contagious?" I said while giving him a wild grin. He looked at me and laughed.

"You are one crazy person, Fox."

"Thank you, but I already knew that."

"So that's why you were running around?"

"Yup!"

"I'm guessing then that your shoulder is fine. Has it hurt at all?"

"Yup!"

"When did it hurt?"

"Sometime before Botan came. I growled at it and the pain stopped. I must have one ferocious growl."

"I'm sure it is." He told me sarcastically, but I didn't notice.

"Yup!"

"Would you please stop saying that?"

"Yup!" He sighed at my response.

"Did you know that tomorrow you start your training?"

"Really? Aren't you gonna teach me?"

"Not yet, but Hiei will be. I admit that despite all the…er…excitement of this morning, you must try to get on his good side."

"Don't need to."

"What? You could get seriously hurt."

"No I won't"

"I'm afraid I don't understand. Enlighten me."

"I'm not a Buddha. Sorry, can't enlighten you. I can tell you why though." He nodded his head.

"He likes me!"

"What?"

"Didn't you see his face go bright red?"

"I'm afraid I must have missed that."

"That's ok. Now you know."

"Think that if it gives you comfort. I would not rely on that idea. I must go now. Try to find your room again." He said while nodding his head. I could hear him whisper, "She had better be right or she might be in serious trouble."

"Bye Kurama!" I shouted. He turned around and waved before continuing walking. I went the other way, in hopes of finding my room again. I bumped into Botan.

"There you are! I thought he might have gotten you!"

"He almost did, but Kurama saved me!" I smiled.

"Good ole Kurama! Oh yes, I ran into Koenma and he said that if you were able to, to come and visit him."

'That's fine with me, if I knew where to go."

"I'll show you. Come this way!" Botan said all chipper- like and happy.
