Good ol' Presents. About time I updated these stories I've been horribly lazy in updating, no? Anyways, hope you enjoy the stupidity!


"I just thought of something," Tina announced to the room.

"You need a breast reduction?" Jann-Lee asked.

"Well… yeah. Actually, nah. Like Kasumi suggested awhile ago, we can give him a pet or something."

"Why would he want a pet? He could eat it when he's out hunting."

"That would be a cave-man," Leifang told Bayman helpfully.

"Same thing. Ninja, cave-man, yeah, same thing…"

As they were pondering over what animal to get Ryu, Hayate walked in with a happy smile on his face. "Ryu's happy that he got his mail."

"That's, uh, good… I think," Hitomi rubbed her head confusedly.

"How did he read it?" Zack asked innocently, walking back in with an empty plate that looked suspiciously like it had chocolate cake crumbs on it.

"Oh, I read it to him. It's all good."

"Aww. Ryu can't read, eh?"

"Well… we have now… one day to think of something! Why can't he like pornography or something? At least then we'd know what to give him!" Leifang sighed.

"What?" Jann-Lee asked snidely. "Tina?"

"Yeah, something like that… hey!" The next thing everybody knew was Jann-Lee flying across the room and colliding with Hitomi. "I'll teach you to insult me!"

"At least he didn't say you were just a try-hard Pamela Anderson with tits bigger then bowling balls who likes mud wrestling with pigs." Hayate commented helpfully.

Soon enough, both Hayate and Jann-Lee were on the ground, moaning over their concussion.

"Ow! Tina…" Hitomi was rubbing her head. "Why did you have to throw Jann-Lee at me? Couldn't you have thrown someone a bit more…" Dramatic pause. "…Tasteful?"

"You're looking in the wrong place, darlin'," Tina drawled.

"Everybody hold it!" Helena put up a hand.

Everybody stopped talking. Even Hayate stopped complaining about Ryu potentially getting confused over his concussion and looked at Helena.

"I've finally got an idea! What we have to do… is buy something you want. Then he won't use it, and he'll give it back to us, so we can have it!"

"Yes! I can get my new skirt without feeling guilty!" Leifang exclaimed happily.

"I can buy my… bratwurst!" Hitomi smiled.

Kasumi stood up. "That's a perfect idea, Helena! Let's go shopping!"

"Why am I coming with you?" Hayate snapped.

"Well, because, I want to buy something! And you're coming with me!"

"That doesn't answer my question!"

"I know!" Hitomi grinned. "I am the queen of evasion! Now, come on. Let's go!"

Hayate honestly couldn't remember having been dragged around to so many clothes shops in his life. Finally, they stopped outside one…

"NO WAY! You have got to be joking!"

"What's wrong?" Hitomi questioned innocently.

"I refuse to go into… this… shop!" Hayate roared, pointing at the window.

"So, what's your problem? Just think of it as a shop that houses various undergarments and things of that effect. Stop making such a big deal of it. Come in."

"Well, how do I look?"

Hayate rubbed his head. "I think nurses would be arrested for wearing skirts that short… and I've never seen a nurse that actually wore rabbit ears before…"

"Isn't it gorgeous?" Hitomi posed in the mirror. "I've always wanted to wear something like this as a joke…"

"Just don't bend over," Hayate muttered.

"Why?" Hitomi asked, bending over.

Hayate flushed scarlet and looked away… to a display of very disturbing outfits.

"Hey, Hitomi? Where's the head hole?"

"Uh…" the young German girl came over to look. "There, I think…"

"But…" Hayate rubbed his head again. "You can't get your head back out of there."

"I think that's the point, Hayate."

"Ryu and I are really scared… why are there so many chains?"

"To chain people up, of course."

"With their clothes? Wouldn't that be uncomfortable?"

Hitomi was beginning to sorely regret consenting to looking after Hayate… and 'Ryu'.

Why did I ever… oh well, I have my nurse's outfit. All is good! I think…
