Summary: A better name for this would probably be "The Birds". Or "The People"...Oh Gods! The people!

Half-warning: There is very possibly a little bit of swearing in this chapter

The Seventh Day of Christmas

…On the seventh day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
Seven swans-a-swimming
Six geese-a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree…

A loud honking noise rippled through the morning air. It was very loud and it was right up against Yuki's ear. Needless to say, Yuki was shocked awake. His body was lifted at least six inches in the air and when he landed back on the bed, he rolled off of it, and onto a turtledove. Its beak went right into Yuki's back and Yuki cursed loudly. The turtledove managed to somehow crawl its way out from underneath Yuki and it scurried away.

Yuki lifted up his head and looked to see what the hell had woken him up. Right next to where his head would have been was a goose. For some reason that he could not fathom, it looked absolutely pissed off.

It was glaring at him. It was really, really, glaring at him. However, Yuki still couldn't figure out why this bird was so mad at him. He was confused to the point of him looking behind him and seeing if maybe there was another bird behind him.

There wasn't.

Yuki furrowed his eyebrows, still trying to figure out what he had done to piss off this bird. He didn't have much time, however, when the goose suddenly charged at him.

"Oh Shit!" he yelled, as he rolled out of the way of the charging goose. It kept coming at him strong. Faster than he thought possible, Yuki had jumped onto his feet and was running out of his bedroom door. The goose followed him, still hot on his heels. For a goose, it was unusually fast.

Yuki ran into his study and closed the door. It didn't have a lock on it, but it's not like he was trying to keep out Shuichi. As soon as the door closed, the goose ran headlong into it, making a banging noise.

'It's way too early for this,' Yuki thought. Shuichi was still at Hiro's, and would be for a few more hours. Yuki let out a deep sigh, thinking that he was out of harms way.

He turned his head a little to the left; his eyes were looking all around the room. All of a sudden, Yuki came eye to eye with another goose. He froze. The goose continued to stare at him, and then it started charging him.

Yuki let out a yell and wrenched open the door, running out of it. The other goose was just on the outside of the door waiting. Somehow, Yuki managed to get passed it and he darted down the hall. All of the geese started chasing after him.

Not knowing what else to do, he raced out the front door, closing it behind him. Once again, the geese ran right into it. Yuki sat right outside his front door, not having a clue what to do. He was still in his pajamas, so he couldn't really go anywhere.

That was how Shuichi found him, three hours later. He was sitting by the front door, just staring straight ahead.

"Yuki?" Shuichi asked him, rather puzzled. Yuki lifted up his head. In his mind he had been writing his next chapter to his story. Of course, when Shuichi called to him, he immediately forgot everything. "Yuki, what are you doing out here?" Shuichi started to open the door.

"NOOOOOO!!!" Yuki yelled, practically tackling Shuichi.

"Yuki…what?" Shuichi repeated.

"You can't go in there! They haven't moved yet. They're still there, waiting…"

Shuichi put his hand up to Yuki's forehead. He had finally snapped.

"Are you alright, Yuki?" Shuichi asked, opening the door. Yuki lunged at him again, but he got there too late and the door opened all the way.

The geese started coming out, chasing Yuki and Shuichi.

"I told you not to open it! RUN!!!!" Yuki shouted.

And that's what they did. Together Shuichi and Yuki ran down the street away from the geese. To any bystanders it would've made quick a hilarious sight. Yuki (still in his pajamas) and Shuichi were running away from geese.

Actually, there were some bystanders, and all of them did look over. There were even some tourist's who snapped a picture.

"So this is what Japanese people are like," Yuki heard one woman saying as he sprinted past her. He flipped her off just as she took the picture.

"I hope that sticks in the picture!" he shouted to her. Shuichi smacked him upside the head.

"Yuki! Quit being so rude!"

The smack on the head made Yuki lose his balance and he fell on the ground. The geese started swarming around him, pecking him. They had completely lost interest in Shuichi. They were after Yuki and Yuki alone.

Shuichi ran over to Yuki and started to help him. He ended up being pecked at too, although, for some strange reason, whenever they hit him they looked back at him apologetically.

"Yuki!" Shuichi called out, "What did you do to make these birds so pissed off at you?"

"I didn't do nothing!"

"That's a double negative! What did you do?"

"Absolutely nothing! It all started when I woke up. I bet it's your fault. I was the first one that they saw when I opened the crate. Man! What a freaky gift! Which leads to my next question," he paused, for dramatic effect, and for the fact that the geese pecking at him were starting to hurt, "why the hell did you get me geese that lay eggs? Why all of these gifts? They're completely random!"

"You'll know on the last day, Yuki, you'll know on the last day," Shuichi said prophetically.

"The last day of what?! How will I know it's the last day?"

"Because I'll tell you."

"Well, is today the last day?"

"No."

"Tomorrow?"

"No."

"The next day?"

"Maybe."

"Really?"

"No."

This little conversation went on until Yuki finally guessed what the last day was. Actually, that's a lie; he never did get what the right last day was. Shuichi made it seem like it was only about four days away. He snickered to himself.

Yuki had believed his lie! He was going to have to lie to him more often. Shuichi got a really creepy grin on his face.

"Shuichi? What?"

"Oh, nothing, nothing. Don't worry, Yuki. Everything will be all right!"

"Then will you get these damn geese to stop pecking at me?" Yuki requested. Shuichi attempted to do as he was asked. It didn't work.

"Sorry, Yuki, they are really pissed off at you." Shuichi started to walk away. Yuki was dumbfounded. Shuichi was leaving him there all alone. It was all Shuichi's fault to begin with.

Yuki got up and started running away from the geese again. Like always, they chased after him. He got to his house, ahead of Shuichi (Shuichi had just remained walking).

Opening his door, he walked right inside. He then closed the door to not the geese in. The geese (although, they should have just run away) stayed close bye the door. He walked into the living and sat down on the couch, again, and looked at the new pool in their living room.

Wait a minute.

Pool?!

Yuki did a double take and headed for the front door. He opened it just as Shuichi was starting to open it. It knocked Yuki back onto the ground.

Shuichi looked at the ground in surprise.

"Yuki?" he called out.

"Why the hell is there a pool in the living room?"

"Yay!" Shuichi cried, "it got here!"

"It…got here?"

"Yeah, were their swans in it?"

"Umm…yeah." Now that Shuichi mentioned it, Yuki had noticed that there was some type of bird in it.

"Hurray! That's the new gift for today!" Shuichi yelled. Yuki gave him a blank look.

"Happy Seventh Day of Christmas!"

"Um…right back to you." Yuki walked slowly in the living room. He looked again at the animals that were in there. The swans that were in the living room were actually quite lovely.

He walked into his study, ready to write some more. He decided that he might as well stay in his pajamas.He didn't need want to dirty anything else. He needed to do something to get his mind off of the swimming pool that was currently located in his living room. When he entered the study, he immediately noticed six birds.

They were geese, and they looked like they were in labor.

'Not again!' he thought to himself.
