A/N: Hey, I guess you can consider this as a little happy (sort of) extra chapter before all the action and serious stuff happens. I just thought it was fun to add a little extra something. The main purpose was to give a little development between characters... I think. Looks confused Warning for language.
Anyway, here's chapter 6!
The six friends entered the loud club and just as Kaoru said, they beat the crowd. Strobe lights filled the dance floor and modern bar lamps hung over head by seating areas and the bar. "This place is great!" Misao yelled to Aoshi.
"It's too loud!"
"What?"
"It's too loud!"
"What?"
"Hey Kenshin lets go get a drink!" Kaoru said pulling the redhead along. He nodded and the two left to the bar. Misao and Aoshi decided to follow since he did not want to dance. Sano and Megumi, being more of the party people, left to the dance floor.
They were dancing and
talking for a good two hours, enjoying their break from work.
Everyone bustling around the Zone in flashy clothes, tight skirts,
neon drinks in people's hands and bone shaking music pounding
through the air.
All up in the club looking fly
Made
your 1st approach then caught his eye
So we move our way towards
the dance floor
Grabbed her hand then she whispered
Whole
night has gotten thru
stand behind me let me crack a groove
I
lick my lips while I'm feeling you
Now I'm going to make you
go
Sano and Megumi moved to the beat of Move Ya Body, simply enjoying the fact that it was a day off. Megumi twirled around laughing as Sano tried pulling off silly moves to make her laugh. Kaoru gave a catcall to embarrass her friend, but Megumi wasn't going to get embarrassed. She took Sano's hands and put it on her hips as they continued dancing. Sano was almost hesitant at first, but relaxed after a bit. It was just dancing. Megumi gave Kaoru a 'take that tanuki' look and continued to dance.
She spun around to face Sano but accidentally bumped into an orange haired guy. Then, a 'pop!' sound came when she turned around to apologize.
"Oh Kyou-kun! Where are you?" A flustered girl bounded over and picked up a small cat. "I'm sorry ma'am, I um...you see...I lost my cat! Ah and here he is... oh cute little Kyou-kun!" She picked up a few articles of clothes and walked away with the small orange cat pointing at Megumi.
"That was... odd, I didn't know they let animals into Zone." Megumi wondered. Sano took her hands and continued dancing with her.
"Well, there's an animal right in front of me, heh."
Wow (your feelin it
now) take it SLOW (you turning me on)
Club gets warmer (warmer)
bodies move closer (closer)
Gone wit the rhythm don't stop movin

From head to toe I feel your flow
Thighs

Make me
really want ya
Don't stop movin your making me HOT
Kaoru got up from her seat taking one last gulp from her margarita. "Come on Kenshin lets join them!"
"Oro!" She pulled him out of his seat and they went dancing with Sano and Megumi. "Kaoru-dono, I don't know..."
"Kenshin it's easy, just move your body; everyone can dance!" She blushed as she took hold of Kenshin's hand and continued with the music. Misao and Aoshi watched their friends move closer together as more people came out on the floor to dance.
"Looks like fun, Aoshi." Misao smiled as she took a sip of her coke. He turned slightly to watch her face. She moved along practically dancing in her chair, that gold necklace of hers jangling with her movements. She looked so happy...but Aoshi didn't want to dance; it just was not in his criteria.
"Shigure, where are you going?" A kid with purple toned hair asked.
"Looking for pretty girls of course!" The man, Shigure, caught sight of Misao dancing in her chair. "Young lady would you like to dance?"
"Well... I dunno."
"Really? Okay let's go!" With that Shigure pulled Misao onto the dance floor, Aoshi seething the whole way. Who was he to grab her away like that? Aoshi's logic side kept him in his chair though. The young blue eyed girl was able to make her own decisions; he was in no way to control what she does. The purple haired kid walked by Aoshi to stare at his cousin. He was a great dancer as was Misao, but he laid his hand on her bottom making her jump three feet off the ground.
"Perverted man." Aoshi and Yuki, the purple hairs kid, muttered simultaneously.
"Ack! You pervert! You're just as dirty as my gramps!" Misao decked him on the head and stomped over to her friends, squeezing between them to get away from Shigure.
"Ah... beautiful girls!" Doggie ears popped out of his head as the purple haired boy just turned around in shame. Aoshi smirked knowing the young ninja girl could beat the snot out of a harmless pervert. Unknown to anyone though, Shigure's actions did give Misao a scare. She hadn't been touched like that in a long time... oh but who wants to spoil everyone fun? She casually smiled like it was nothing.
Ohhh move your body girl makes the fellaz go
It's the way
you ride it girl makes the fellaz go
Ohhh move your body girl
makes the fellaz go
It's the way you ride it girl makes the
fellaz go
Can your feel the beat (can ya can ya feel the
beat)
Can your feel the beat (can ya can ya feel the beat)
Can
you feel the beat within my heart can't you see my love shine thru
the dark
Can ya feel the beat
Can you feel the beat within my
heart can't you see my love shine thru the dark
Cant you see that
you must be apart of that beat in my heart
Kenshin began getting the hang of the lingo as he and Kaoru danced. Kaoru wouldn't stop giggling since she drank a bit too much for one night. Misao simply moved to her own pace by herself but with no doubt having fun. Megumi and Sano were still in their intimate pose grinning at each other as if they were about to eat each other's faces off.
Thus, leaving Aoshi watching from a distance.
He surveyed the crowd and kept a close eye on where Misao was dancing to ward off other perverted guys. Then a certain familiar face caught him. Was that... Shishio? He looked down at the people dancing and began to walk away. Maybe he didn't see them. Aoshi thought.
Sano and Megumi were really getting into the dance. She tilted her head back giving off her long craning neck. Sano began to place butterfly kisses on her as Kaoru grabbed onto Kenshin's shirt.
"Do you see that?!" Kenshin's eyes widened and Misao began laughing loudly. Megumi took hold of Sano's head as he switched to kissing her shoulder. "EW!"
Misao just laughed harder.
Megumi pushed Sano off her pointing at his nose accusingly, as he looked confused. "Now, Sanosuke, why kind of a girl do you take me for? Ohoho!" She winked at him wickedly before making her way to Aoshi.
"Damn fox..." he grumbled blushing at what his friends were still laughing at. He pushed his way to follow the vixen. Misao almost died laughing and thought better to take the chance at making fun of them. She too ran after Sano. Kenshin and Kaoru continued dancing for the rest of the song.
Ohhh move your body girl makes the fellaz go
It's the way you ride it girl makes the fellaz go
Ohhh move
your body girl makes the fellaz go
It's the way you ride it girl
makes the fellaz go
By the end of their dancing, Kaoru had a gloss of sweat on her skin, and Kenshin's bangs were slightly damp, from all the people around them and body heat. "Wow Kenshin, I didn't know you could dance like THAT." She grinned.
"Oro..." They made their way towards their friends and ordered some more drinks, as in water. "This one thinks you've had one too many margaritas tonight Kaoru-dono."
"Looks like you two were enjoying yourselves." Sano smirked at Kenshin. He pulled his collar a bit to let him cool off.
"I'm so hot already!" Kaoru complained taking her water to drink.
"You guys want to get out of here?" Misao asked going to the door. They all followed suit and exited the loud club. "Ah, the breeze feels nice." She twirled around laughing. "I know! Let's all go over to our place and play some video games!"
"You... want to play video games?" Sano pointed a finger at the ninja girl. "You're on shrimp!" They began jogging down the sidewalk as Megumi, Kaoru, Kenshin and Aoshi walked at a normal pace.
............................................................................................................
"I beat you again, loser!" Misao cheered. "That's nine games out of twelve, you can't win, and I'm the best at Soul Caliber!"
Sano threw down his controller. "Yeah, whatever." She stuck out her tongue and ate a few more bites of her ice cream. The girls changed into more comfortable t-shirts and short and the guys left a few of their shirt buttons undone. They sat around the television playing games eating junk food and talking.
"Who wants to try and beat the great Makimachi?"
"You can't give yourself a title, Misao!"
"Yes I can, Kaoru!" She said in a sing along voice. "Well? I think I beat everyone in this room except Aoshi. So how bout it, ice man?"
"No."
Misao silently got up from her spot and towered over where Aoshi was sitting. "Are you scared I'll beat you? Afraid I'll hurt your pride?" She shoved the controller into his hands and glared. "You haven't done one fun thing tonight Aoshi, live a little." With that, Aoshi took hold of the controller muttering something about obsessive women.
Fifteen minutes later...
Everyone in the room just watched the screen wide eyed. "Wow," Kaoru whispered, "I didn't know Aoshi was so..." The game called, 'KO!'
"...good."
Indeed he was considering he beat Misao's butt in less than twenty seconds for the tenth time.
"Misao... give up now, it's impossible to beat me." Aoshi said putting his controller down.
She was in shock. "No one... ever since I got this game has ever beaten me. RRRRRR!" She got up and stared down at Aoshi who was sitting. "I don't get it! All hail Aoshi-sama, lord of being a smart ass!" She shouted sarcastically while giving a short bow.
He was almost fed up with Misao tonight. "Are you mocking me?"
"So what if I am? It isn't like you'd care!"
Aoshi was beginning to loose control as he tried to breathe calmly. "How do you know I don't care?"
"You don't look like you care, you stupid ice block! At the club you let that guy take me to the floor without even protesting! Then you go beating me at my own game!"
He finally snapped and threw the controller at Sano who easily caught it. "You asked me to play, you bitch!" Everyone gasped wondering where that had come from. He found himself on his feet now towering over Misao.
She had unshed tears in her eyes as she rudely shoved him away from her. "You ass!"
"Whore."
"Dick!"
"Slut."
"Bastard!" She began trying to punch him in the chest. He got hold of her wrists and she began trying to pull her arms from his gentle, yet iron grip.
"Maa, you two need to calm down! Aoshi this is really not like you de gozaru! Stand down this instant." Kenshin said standing up.
He threw a dirty glare at his friend. "Shove it Himura. In work you may be my superior, but right now you have no control on me. Misao, look at me." She did so blinking away tears. Who was he to make her cry like this? He is an icy bastard! She thought. Her whole body shook, remembering this feeling before.
Their hands holding her down like some kind of wild animal.
She ripped her wrist away painfully and slapped him hard across the face, making his face turn slightly. "Get...out." Misao whispered pointing to the door and clutching her necklace. Aoshi blinked at Misao, not sure what just happened. He wouldn't hit her back... maybe he deserved it. He stood up straight and grabbed his jacket on the way to the door.
Before turning the knob to the door, he sighed. "Excuse my behavior." With a loud slam, he left making Misao run to her room.
Sano quietly chewed popcorn wrapping an arm around Megumi. "Drama, drama, drama..." Megumi said sipping her soda.
"ORO!" Kenshin fell over as Kaoru laughed and hugged him for being so weird.
Kaoru rubbed Kenshin's scalp making him blush a deeper color than his hair. "I know Misao, she just needs to calm down and think for a while." They heard crashed coming from the young ninja's room. "Yeah... she needs to think for a while."
Kaoru smiled suddenly, clearly a fake one at that. "Well, with that said who wants to play me at Double Dash? I don't want you all to feel uncomfortable. It's right before the stupid party tomorrow and we got to relax a little." Kenshin and Sano looked down.
Sano side glanced Kaoru. "Are you sure? Maybe we should leave..."
"Hai, it's thoughtful of your, Kaoru-dono, but we should go find Aoshi that we should. Please take no offense."
"No, no... I know," Kaoru smiled sadly. "Of all the people Misao's ever liked, Aoshi is the first to make her act like this. There's something between those two and I know I'm not the only one who thinks it." She smirked at Sano and Megumi.
"Like you two! What was all that dancing in the club? I could have sworn you would drop down and do IT right there." She changed the subject.
"Hey! Shut up tanuki!" Megumi yelled throwing popcorn at her friend.
Kenshin didn't say anything, just watching Kaoru and Megumi throwing random objects at each other. Then glanced at Sano who was still blushing while grabbing his coat. Kaoru-dono is always so happy. She knows how to make the saddest thing seem beautiful... Always cheering others up de gozaru. I...don't know what to think... what's happening?

"It's kind of nice being this close to you in a dark corner."
She lifted an eyebrow. "What are you, still in middle school? Don't get any funny ideas, hentai."
"That's right, no funny ideas..." A voice spoke behind them. Megumi gasped and they both turned around.
"Black out."
