chapter eleven( Home sweet home… well, sort of
It had been a full week since Team Kitsune had been in Japan. Summer was nearly over, and all of the girls were gathered down at the creek, bidding summer their last farewells.
"What triumph," Elli sighed dramatically; rethinking the trip they had all taken. Neha punched her in the arm. She winced and rubbed the spot.
Quite a bit had changed over the one-week period of time. Elli now liked being called Lenni, instead. And Neha had taken a recent delight to physically harming her friend. Liz and Lenni had worked together to compile all of one manga series, and Nikki had introduced them all to the (wonderful, great, funny, cool) songs by Weird Al. Andrea had begun to improve her kitsune half's speech, and Ami had developed a liking to Shippou of Inu-Yasha. All in all, a decent improvement. But, alas, school was a mere three days away, and everyone was down cast.
"Ho-hum." Liz sighed, prying a stone from the dirt and hurling it at the opposite bank of the creek.
"Good bye, fair summer, we'll miss you dearly." Nikki said.
"To bad we can't go back to Japan." Andrea said warily.
"To visit, Kurama, maybe?" Lenni asked.
"You'd know." Andrea retorted. Lenni was silent, and looked down at her hands, trying to hide a faint blush.
They all heaved a sigh.
Out of the wide blue yonder, there was a bang! Team Kitsune whirled around.
"Well, well, well." A cool dark voice growled. "Look what I found."
Lenni and Andrea gulped, Nikki looked surprised, and the rest of them had on assorted looks of fear and astonishment.
"Indeed." A second voice agreed.
"What should we do about this?" yet another voice asked, this one off tone and cracked.
"Trial and Error, I'd say." The last one said.
The four of them advanced on the hapless Team Kitsune.
"RUN AWAY!" Lenni yelled at the top of her voice. She and the others were on their feet instantly, and running in all different directions.
The Rekai Tantei watched them go. Hiei snorted, and disappeared in a rush of speed, off to cause misery in the girl's life no doubt. Kurama smiled to himself and strode off into the woods the way Andrea had gone. Yusuke and Kuwabara ran off as well.
This is how the last days of summer were. That is, until school started, anyway. That's a whole different ballpark. One that is far too big to put into this fic.
The End
Lenni- Arigatou mina-san! Although nobody bothered to help me in my time of writers block, I can forgive that. If enough people review positively, (and maybe give me ideas hinthint) I may do a sequel. Thinking about it, no ideas though. What about? That is a very good question. If I come up with something, I will post it in my bio under the title of this fic, or something.
Neha-You weren't the only person with writer's block…Happy New Year, everybody! Anyways, you guys should listen to Boulevard of Broken Dreams. It's a great song by Green Day…that was random. Well, I liked this fic in particular, dunno why. Perhaps it's just because.
Lenni-Because…?
Neha-Because because.
Lenni- yea…well, that sums it up, really. Happy reviewing!
