Chapter 2

Dinner and How to Avoid Too Curious Seishi

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The sun was already setting when Kouji slowly led them to the inside of the old and huge stone mansion, which also served as the hideout of the famous Mt. Reikkaku bandits. The girls were looking everything with wide eyes, and tried to see everything in a one glimpse.

"Genrou! It's nice t' have ya finally back. Everybody has missed ya." Kouji said and put his had to Tasukis' shoulder.

"We came here to stay. Well, at least i did." Tasuki grinned his fanged smile as he looked questioningly to Chichiri.

"Somehow I doubt that." Riina whispered to herself as she narrowed her eyes and studied Tasukis' outfit inch by inch.

"Well, well, well. Now who are these lovely ladies you brought Genrou? Are they fiancé's of the two of you?" Kouji asked when he suddenly noticed the girls.

"Ah! You hav'ta be Genrous' girl." he grinned as he swept Lanas' hand and softly kissed it.

"NO *mph*" the now red Lana was cut off, when Riina slapped her hand over Lana's mouth.

"Eh heh hee." Riina giggled nervously.

"NO F(&%&# WAY SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND!!!!!! Ya know how I HATE women!" Tasuki exploded, hitting his friend to the back of his head, with his face even redder than his hair.

"Daaa!" Chichiri swallowed and twitched uncomfortably. "Why don't we get inside and eat something no da. We have traveled the whole day ..."

"And I'm sick 'n tired of the fish! If i see one more fish, I'm gona grow scales!" Tasuki complained loudly as they walked through the inner yard.

"Well, we have some dinner left. After we've eaten ya guys have to tell me everything!" Kouji grinned as he threw his arms around Tasukis' and Chichiris' shoulders and guided them in through large wooden doors.

Lana and Riina followed the three men in few steps behind of them.

"What whas that all about?" Lana hissed to her friend when they entered of the doors.

"Shush. No time to explain kittling, but don't..." Riina trailed of when they entered into a big, old looking hall.

It was full of noisy and messy looking bandits sitting in a long tables drinking or playing. Some where on the other end of the hall a group fist fight broke up. Someone was singing badly off key, and a man in a near table passed out, sliding under the table.

"Great..." Riina muttered dryly as she heard happy snoring from under the table.

"Cool!!" Lana grinned and her eyes started to shine from the noisy view.

Lana marched to a lonely table on a shadowy corner where Tasuki, Chichiri and Kouji were already sitting. She sat down next to Kouji, right across Tasuki. The older girl sat next to hot tempered red head, across Chichiri, and kicked her pack bag under the table. Soon someone brought them steaming bowls of rice to the table with delicious looking vegetables that had some pieces of meat with them.

Tasuki and Lana attacked to the food like a pack of hungry wolves who hadn't seen food for a while. Kouji gapped the view for a few seconds and then carefully took some rice and vegetables, though he had already eaten. Chichiri ate slowly, as he quietly observed everybody who sat around the table. Riina twiddled with her chopsticks, trying to pick up some rice from her bowl, but failing every time. Finally she gave up with a sigh and ate just the vegetables. It was allredy dark on the out side when they finally finished the dinner.

"Aaah. Much better." Tasuki sighed happily as he poured a cup of sake to himself and gulped it down whit a one swallow.

"Now." he suddenly slammed the empty cup to the table, making the both of the girls nearly jumping out of their skins. He narrowed his eyes and fixed his golden gaze to them.

"Talk! What th' hell you two were doing in front of the Mt. Reikaku bandits hideout?" he asked with a low voice, giving them a stare which could have pierced stones. "Have ya been send by t' bandits on the Kutou's border?"

"Well aren't we being nice tonight, fang boy." Lana snapped. She was getting irritated by Tasuki's sudden cold attitude.

"Actually, OW" she suddenly yelped when Riina had calmly stepped on her toes under the table.

"Some more rice kittling?" she asked, looking like nothing had happened and handled the now almost empty bowl of rice to Lana. Lana glanced at her friend in confusion, but silently took the bowl.

"Kittling?....." Kouji raised a brow amusedly. Lana almost choked on a piece of rice.

"Don't *cough cough* .... Don't call me *cough cough COUGH* ....that! *cough cough*" Lana panted tierry eyedly. Riina sweat dropped as she patted her friends back.

"What ever you say... kittling." Tasuki smirked and leaned to the wall, causing Lana to choke on her food once again.

"I said. Don't. Call. Me. That." she said hoarsely when she stood up, shooting daggers at Tasuki.

Riina face faulted and calmly pulled the hot headed red head to sit down with a deep sigh.

"Grrrrr." Lana quietly sulked.

"A long story." she waved her hand tiredly to the three guys. "As Lana was saying, we have been traveling for a long time now and we're coming from a far away. You probably haven't even heard of the place, but anywayz. A little while ago there was an incredibly thick fog on the mountains that lasted for few days. And seemingly we got lost. When it cleared we had no idea where we were. We had came down from the mountains in somewhere neither of us had ever seen. Anywayz. Couple of days ago, we were on between two mountains, I think it was on the other side of this mountain, we were attacked by some bandits. We barely escaped, but on the way we lost one of our pack bags. We've been moving as fast as we could since then, until you just found us. Arigatou!" she smiled thankfully "We have been afraid we'd run into those men again".

Lana couldn't believe what she was seeing. Riina was lying to the seishi with a straight face. She was playing an act that could have won Oscars. Lana had no idea why the dark haired girl was acting so weirdly, but decided not to blow her cover and smiled too.

"It is getting really late." Riina continued "And if it isn't too much trouble for you, because you have been so kind to us already, but could we spend the night over here? Please? We're so tired.... " she gave Tasuki and Chichiri an wounded, pleading look and softly nudged Lana under the table.

"Wha'aaaaaah!" Lana fake yawned dedicatedly and stretched, to play her part on this scheme.

"Please?…" The both girls looked hopefully one by one at Chichiri, Tasuki and Kouji.

"Aww. C'mon Genrou. Wha'da ya say. Let 'em stay." Kouji grinned after a second and gave puppy dog eyes to Tasuki. He winked to the girls when Tasuki tiredly rolled his eyes.

Chichiri had put his fingertips together in front of his face and tipped his head thoughtfully, his smiling mask being as unreadable as always. Both girls held their breath.

"I really don't see any reason why not they couldn't stay for the night Tasuki-kun no da." he finally said cheerfully in his carefree style. Both of the girls silently sighed in relief.

Tasuki glared at his friends, then rubbed his temples tiredly growling.

"All right." Kouji said pleasantly, as Tasuki winced. Both girls had the suspicion Kouji had stepped on his foot. "We have a spare room on the other side of the compound. Follow us." Kouji and Chichiri got up with Tasuki reluctantly following, and began leading the girls down several halls.

Lana suddenly stopped, looking from side to side as if she thought someone had said her name.

"What's wrong, kittling?" Riina asked her quietly. The men hadn't noticed them stopping, and kept on walking and talking to each other.

"Something's wrong here. Keep the men distracted, I'm going to check it out." Lana told her, turning and running down a certain hall as if something was leading her.

"Daaa, how am I supposed to do THAT?!" Riina hissed after her, but Lana was already gone. "Daaaaaa. Tasuki's not going to like this." she sighed to herself, and quietly followed the men, praying they wouldn't notice until Lana was back from where ever she had gone.

The men still hadn't noticed five minutes later, when a roar suddenly made the floors of the building shake.

"What the hell was THAT?!" Tasuki yelled, taking off down a hall with the rest of them in hot pursuit.

"Whatever it is, I bet it has something to do with Lana." Riina thought with a sigh, and ran after them.

And then some replies for our reviewers! ^^ *hands a rose for all who reviewed* *blinks and chuckles* Yes, this is shameless bribing… ^~

Chiri - *bows* I'm glad that you liked of it! ^^ *chuckles* And I hope that I'll see you around in yahoo, or hotmail msn! ;p *mutters* If I'd actually ever had the TIME for that one… -_-;;; *sweat drops* Or if I'd have the chance to actually DL the msn….

Demee  - Thank you! ^^ And don't worry, me and Lana are not anywhere near of ending this fic yet… ;p Though the both of us love the monk and bandit equally, me and Lana didn't need to go through a cat fight for them.
 *Me and Lana are looking at Chichiri and Tasuki thoughtfully*
me: You can get Tasuki, if I'll get Chichiri…..
Lana: *smirk* Deal!
Tasuki & Chichiri: *sweat drops with wide eyes*
Tasuki: *mutters to Chichiri* Wana run for it?
Lana: *glomps Tasuki* Dream on, bandit boy! *smirk*
That is basically what happened. *heh heh*

Alatril Carnesr – Thanks for your support! ^^ No need to worry, (spoilers, maybe ;p) Riina and Lana aren't going to end up enemies, like Miaka and Yui did. They don't have any reason to, and they're too good (and old) friends to end up hating each others. (This will be explained better on the future)

Okay. That much for this chapter. *checks out few files* It seems that Lana will be taking over for the next one, so stay tuned! ;p And please, don't forget to review! ^^ *turns chibi and gives puppy eyes* Roses will be loved, and flames will warm hands nicely. ^~
