Authors Notes:Well, I got a great response on the last chapter! Wow, that really makes me feel a lot better about this. When people flamed my last chapter, I nearly gave up hope of ever writing again. But, because of you people, I got the courage to go on. Thank you so much! Okay, I'll let you enjoy the next chapter!
Disclaimer: I have always wanted to own Rurouni Kenshin, but, unfortunately, I don't.
Chapter 3
Angela looked sadly at the mansion before she left it. "Oh what am I going to do?!" she said, much like how a depressed donkey sounded like when it got stuck in a can opener.
"I'm sure Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii is going to come after me! But it's better for my friends to be saved from all this danger…but what am I going to do now? I could always get a job as a pediatrician, an optometrist, a dentist, an engineer, an interior designer, a lawyer, a chef, a policewoman, a martial arts instructor, a cow herder, or much much more anywhere. I've got master degrees in all those areas…"
With this thought, Angela trudged onward, not knowing what was to come.
A pale, yellowish girl watched Angela from the shadows, stroking her cats they were fluffy. "Hmmmmmm…what do you think I should do, Muffins?" the girl asked her lead cat.
Muffins the cat said, "Meow."
Stroking her chin, the girl laughed. "That just may work, Muffins. What about you, Cupcake?"
Cupcake the cat said, "Meow."
"Great idea! Well…it's time for your opinion, Donkey."
Donkey the cat said, "Meow."
Narrowing her eyes, the girl glared at Donkey the cat. "That's a very bad plan. I don't like it. I can't believe you would say such a thing!"
She threw her head back and laughed. "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!"
"No matter, nobody will defeat me, Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii!!!"
Aoshi buried his face in his hands. "I feel so…empty! I'm going to go save ANGELA!!!"
"Valerie is a hottie," Sano said understandingly, blinking his choclate eyes.
Guia was crying in the corner. "T-tragedy….won't…le-le-le-le-le-leave us….WHY IS THE WORLD SO CRUEL?!"
Kenshin held Guia it was so sweet. "You don't deserve so much pain, Guia-dono. The world has, indeed, been cruel."
Valerie couldn't find her butterfly hairclip. "ANOTHER TRAGEDY HAS STRUCK!!" she screamed.
Guia gave another heart-wrenching sob that sounded like a beautiful tinkling of bells in the hallway of a deserted building that used to be used for storage because it was all dusty and cobwebby and it wasn't that good. She wailed, "D-d-don't s-s-say th-th-that, V-v-Valerie…."
Angela narrowed her eyes, her perfectly perfect hair blowing in the wind. "Who are you?"
A pale, yellowish girl brandishing a scratch post laughed. "You don't know? Does the name 'Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii' ring a bell?"
Angela gasped. "You're Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii!!!"
"Yes, I am Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii…" said Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii. "My cats prefer to call me 'Emily', however."
"Prepare to die," Angela said, drawing her sword which made a sound that sounded like a Spanish book being thrown at a cat that was only trying to sunbathe.
"I don't think so!" Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily said. "ATTACK, MUFFINS!"
Muffins the cat said, "Meow."
"What do you mean you don't want to attack?!"
"Meow."
"Dumb cat. Okay then, GO CUPCAKE!"
"Meow."
Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily looked crestfallen. "Et tu, Cupcake?"
"Well, are you going to abandon me as well, Donkey?" Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily looked at the cat.
"Hee-haw."
"ARGH, you stupid, good for nothing CATS! I'll attack her myself!" Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily raised her deadly scratch post.
Angela drew her kodachis and slashed upwards, knocking the scratch post out of Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily's hands. "I WON!" Angela yelled happily.
Fariminasakikokoroiyalamasu Jiganaminaorkanamloraidkaidii a.k.a. Emily cried in despair. "YOU…uh…bye!"
Guia looked angrily and Angela, much like superglue that was poured onto a Linkin Park CD. "Why did you leave? Didn't you think we would support you? What kind of friend do you take me for? Tragedy has struck!"
"Well, it's a very very very long story," said Angela, flipping her hair as it rippled beautifully in the beautiful sunset that they were watching from their expensive deck that was bigger than most people's houses were.
Valerie sighed. "Angela, have you seen my butterfly hairclip?"
Sano gave a very surprised gasp it was so sad. "You…lost…it?!"
Valerie looked like a beautiful swan that had its feathers plucked off because a hungry evil man wanted to eat it was so cruel. "Oh, Sano, I'm so sorry. It…just went missing…"
"But, Valerie…"
"Oh, Sano…"
"Valerie…"
"Oh, Sano…"
"Valerie…"
"Oh, Sano…"
"Valerie…"
"Oh, Sano…"
Guia looked dreamily at the couple she was so beautiful. She turned to Kenshin. "Isn't that just so romantic the way they keep saying each other's names? Why don't you do that to me?"
Kenshin looked down. "I thought that would be…too forward. I'm taking little steps at a time. I read that in a book once. The first step to winning a woman's heart is to rescue her and rip off her bodice and give her a passionate kiss and take her home and make her happy and love her."
Guia didn't answer, but, instead looked at the couple.
"Valerie…"
"Oh, Sano…"
"Valerie…is a hottie…"
"Sano? Does this mean you forgive me?"
"NO!"
Valerie's eyes welled up with tears, her eyes sparkling like the glistening saliva of a German Shepard that wanted to eat a cowering rabbit in the corner of Main Street.
They were interrupted with laughter from the corner of their deck.
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHHAAHHAA::snort::HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHA::snort::"
Guia turned to where the laughter was coming from. "Who are you?"
A short Asian girl stood in the corner, laughing like a baked potato that was getting shredded to bits by a leg warmer.
"I am the great…the Asian…the short…the…"
Angela glared. "I don't care. All that matters is that me and Aoshi are together." She clung to Aoshi, while he looked down at her lovingly with beautiful shiny stuff in his eyes.
"…most beautiful girl in the world…I am, the GREAT MALORY!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Valerie narrowed her eyes while Guia ran to the corner and began rocking back and forth, tears streaming down her face. "What do you want?"
"LEAVE US ALONE! WE HAVE ENOUGH SORROW AND TRAGEDY TO DEAL WITH WITHOUT YOU HERE, MALORY!" Guia screamed, her tears coursing down her face in a beautiful silver stream of gold. Kenshin immediately went to comfort her.
Valerie glared at Malory. "SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE?! YOU MADE GUIA CRY! SHE HAS GONE THROUGH ENOUGH!"
Malory laughed evilly, smiling an evil smile. "Oh. Then I guess you won't be needing this…?" Malory held up Valerie's butterfly hairclip.
Valerie gasped. "YOU—GIVE IT BACK!!! How DARE you steal my butterfly hairclip!"
"If you want it back, then let me marry Sanosuke," Malory said.
Sano said, "NEVER! I LOVE VALERIE, NOT YOU!"
Valerie looked up at Sano. "Then you forgive me?"
"NO! YOU HAVE TO GET THE HAIRCLIP BACK! IT COST ME A FORTUNE—99 CENTS AT THE DOLLAR STORE!"
Valerie glared at Malory.
"WHY HAS TRAGEDY BEFALLEN US??!" Guia cried.
Tears streamed down Valerie's face as she said, "I feel so empty without my butterfly hairclip…from the inside…"
Author's Note: Well, this chapter is done! I know, I know. I left it at yet ANOTHER cliffhanger. This story is really beginning to get angsty. I'm sorry if this made you cry. I cried when I wrote it. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Please review and have a nice day!
