Disclaimer: I own nothing, except my own characters....
The girls all got up and ran out of the door, into the hall to try to find Hiei, but he was now lost somewhere in the huge crowd of hungry students........
Chapter 10: The preps are doing WHAT?!
"Aargh!" Eve yelled in frustration. "We lost him AGAIN! Now what?"
"Oh dear..." was all Lina could manage.
"How do we find a midget in a huge crowd like this?!" Luna exclaimed. Eve let out a sigh to clear her head from what could happen if they didn't find Hiei soon. An image of the school blowing up (anime style) popped unwelcomely inter he mind.
"WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR, LET'S GO!" Lina yelled, yanking Eve's arm, who grabbed Luna's and they got lost in the moving crowd. All three of them frantically looked in all directions for the shiny, spiked hair-do. Black spikes were easy to spot, but for some reason it wasn't sticking out of the hungry mob.
"How can any of these people eat that shit they call food?" Luna asked as the crowd started to pick up the pace.
"Find Hiei first! Stay focused!" Eve lectured. Lina turned to a random call of her name.
"LINA!" a squeaky voice said from behind her. Lina turned around to see no one there. The voice purposely cleared its throat, giving a clue to look down. She looked down to be greeted by a little boy face, known to others as a monkey face.
"Hey RJ..." Lina said as she looked into the eager blue eyes, stalkingly staring up inter her brown ones. Unlike the monkey's eyes, Lina's were full of worry, constantly looking in all directions for the lost demon.
"Come on! We have to find him!" Luna yelled in Lina's ear.
"NOW!!" Eve added, yelling into her other ear.
"OKAY!!!" Lina exploded, "GEEZ!" They walked with their fellow students down the stairs, keeping their eyes open for Hiei. When they reached the basement, they saw a crowd of girls screaming. "Must have found a cat or something like that," Lina said rolling her eyes.
"I hate preps!" Eve said in a rather loud tone.
"Let's concentrate!" we really need to find Hiei!" Luna growled out of exasperation. Right then, Lina felt a pair of arms slowly glide their way across her lower stomach. Looking down, she realized it was her stalker, RJ. Having this 'love' crap pulled before, Lina's first and only instinct was to elbow his mouth. But, being almost 4' 7", Lina's elbow went right into RJ's neck. With a quick start, it was lunged into his trachea. RJ stumble back, completely caught off-guard.
"OH MY GOD!" Eve yelped. Before Lina or Luna could ask, Eve flew off to where the preps were literally melting over something. A gray sweatshirt flew over the crowd and gradually fell to the ground.
"HIEI!" Luna screamed, as the sweatshirt was still falling. She left Lina behind with RJ who was stumbling back and forth holding his throat.
"Hey! What's going on?!" Lina asked herself out loud. She looked at the article of clothing, now on the discolored floor tiles. The blue dragon on it made Lina jump back. "THEY'RE STRIPPING HIEI!" Lina shrieked. When she reached the group of screaming preps, Eve and Luna were in the middle of the circle.
"HELP ME!" Hiei screamed as his jeans started to slip off his slim hips. Luna grabbed his legs, not noticing the jeans were coming off. With one sharp yank, the petit jeans flew right onto Eve's head. All of the girls gasped in excitement. Luna gasped in surprise.
"He's so cute! Look at his rose boxers!" one girl gushed. Hiei tried to cover himself up, but the crowd of girls wouldn't allow him to do so. Hiei's face flushed deep red, and the temperature got strangely hot.
"Oh shit..." Eve whispered as she saw small embers starting to form around Hiei's feet.
"Don't!" Lina yelled at the girls, still trying to grab Hiei.
"MOVE!" Luna yelled as a huge flame exploded from Hiei's standing place. All of the girls screamed and scattered. Hiei stood with a gleam of victory after his fans had left. Eve walked over with Hiei's pants still on her head, looking like a casual nun. (Note the veil...) Hiei's face went from a smirk to an embarrassed look after he remembered his rose boxers were still showing. "Why the cute rose boxers?" Luna asked with a small glint in her eye.
"IT'S ALL KURAMA'S FAULT!" Hiei confessed.
"Well, I think they're cute!" Eve gushed with a chibi smile.
"Yep. It's nice, but Mr. Petrun is coming! Give him back his pants!" Lina said rapidly, to see Mr. Petrun's huge bulk move towards the choking monkey also known as RJ.
"OH FUCK!" Luna gasped. She looked around wildly for Hiei's sweatshirt. She saw Lina grabbing it from the floor. Hiei's pants were on and then he grabbed his sweatshirt from Lina.
"Come on, come on, come on!" Eve was bouncing up and down. "We're gonna die..." she moaned.
Luna said, "Shut up! You're not helping!"
"Let's go!" Eve nodded vehemently.
"But... what about RJ?" Lina asked uncertainly. "We can't just... you know." Luna looked at the still choking monkey and said,
"Forget that bastard. Oops. I mean bitch. We have no time! Let's go!" Eve grabbed Hiei's wrist and dashed towards the side stairwell.
"Where are you going?" Lina shouted. "Those stairs go UP!"
"Circle around!" Eve answered. Luna looked back. Mr. Petrun ha reached RJ.
"Let's go!" The three of them plus Hiei ran up the stairs, down the hall, and reached another flight of stairs. They followed those down past the floor where the library was, and made it safely to the cafeteria.
"Whew!" Eve breathed.
"We made it!" Lina laughed.
"Umm... guys?" Luna asked.
"We mad it, we made it, we made it," Eve and Lina sang as they linked arms and frolicked around in a circle.
"Guys!" Luna tried again.
"WE MADE IT, WE MADE IT, WE MADE IT!" Eve and Lina screamed.
"GUYS!!!" Luna shrieked, and even Hiei cowered against the wall.
Eve squeaked, "Um...what?"
Luna pointed. Eve and Lina turned around. The principal, Mrs. Defino, Mr. Petrun, and RJ were standing there. All three of them had a startled look on her face.
"Can you please explain why this young man is scared out of his mind?" asked Mrs. Defino. RJ was staring at his fee, avoiding looking at the girls and Hiei.
"How can he be scared out of his mind if he never had a mind in the first place!" yelled Luna, shouting in the direction of RJ.
"Young lady, do not yell at me!" Mrs. Defino yelled back, as Mr. Petrun shot her a dirty look.
"Eve, Luna, Lina, please explain what is going on here. I'm sure that there is a perfectly good reason as to what is happening around here," said Mr. Petrun.
"They had better have an explanation because all the problems we've had around the school today seem to be linked to the four of them." Mrs. Defino looked at Hiei who was now looking at some of the books that were sitting on a table near him. "And I am most surprised that you have caused this many problems on your first day. I would expect that you would at least be on your best behavior for your first day at school." Hiei looked over to see the principal staring at him with a royally pissed look on her face. He just turned and continued to look at the book in his hand. Eve looked at Hiei. He didn't notice her until she tapped him on the shoulder and he jumped.
Mrs. Defino looked at Mr. Petrun and nodded. Mr. Petrun walked out of the cafeteria. A few minutes later, he walked backing with a security guard following close behind.
"Please take the four of them to my office. I think that we need to have a little talk with them," Mrs. Defino told the security guard. The four kids all followed him out into the hall. A group of the preppy girls that had earlier been stripping Hiei were now staring at them. Luna, Eve and Lina all shot them dirty looks.
Eve gulped. They were going to be in so much trouble! What were they going to do! They might get suspended! "I'm gonna die..." she whimpered.
But, at that moment, they were saved by the most unlikely people in the world. A trio of very odd boys came flying around the corner. One of them grabbed RJ and put him in a headlock, the second ran up to the girls and Hiei, and the third was carrying... A METAL BASEBALL BAT?!
"Bryan? Spencer?! TONY?! Luna screamed.
TBC............. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Woot! Another chapter done! R&R people!
Yep, it's a cliff hanger. So, what will happen to our trio of heroines? Who are the three new boys? What about a metal baseball bat? And what other zany things will happen in their school? Stay tuned for the next exciting episode of........ RUNNING SHADOWS!
