Chapter 5:
Healings and Missing Backpacks
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The late morning sunshine peaked through a dirty glass that could be called a window only in the loosest meaning of the word, and even that needed a very good imagination. Other wise you could have thought it was just a bit smoother part of the wooden wall.
A beam of sunshine crawled up to sleeping Lana's face and finally found a place to rest on her eyes. She wrinkled her nose annoyed on her sleep. Finally she slowly drifted somewhere near conscious, though not totally awaken yet. She turned on other her side, eyes closed, and murmured something incoherent about too early sunrises and how someone could stuff it to somewhere the sun doesn't shine. She gave a deep sigh and hoped that she could still sleep for couple of hours more before the school. She had no such luck. Something stated to tickle annoyingly on her cheek. She reached her hand on her face to scratch that something that kept her from sleeping. And howled a bloody murder.
Riina screamed and bolted a mile high from the bed next to hers, where she had been sleeping.
"Wh-what, where, when?" she panted with wide eyes, having had the scare of her life.
"Ooooww, My head. Oow, My CHEEK." Lana whined, sitting on her bed, doubled over and holding her head on her hands.
"Considering how ya were last night, I'd say you're feeling much better than what I thought you would…" Riina muttered from her bed, teasing her friend halfheartedly, yawning widely. "Just, please, don't do that again while I'm sleeping, okay? I'd love to see the next sunrise y'know…" she looked Lana in mock shock, holding her hand on her heart, which was rewarded with a pillow straight on her face.
"Oh, will ya shut up." Lana groaned "I think I just wanna die." and fell on her side on the bed.
"What happened?" she asked, burying her face on the blanket.
"Well, last evening…" Riina started and trailed off.
The both of the girls stared at each other in disbelief. They blinked simultaneously, pointing at each other.
"Lana? Is it you?"
"Riina? You're here?"
Like one, they blinked again and looked around on the room. Slowly they looked back to each other again with wide, shocked eyes.
"So…" Riina started.
"You mean…" Lana slowly continued and her eyes lit up.
"It was all true? We're really in FY? In Mt. Reikkaku?" she beamed like she'd been in a 7th heaven and pumped her fist in the air. "Wo-hooo!! Ow, ow, ow, owie!!" she grimaced and carefully touched the bandaged cut on her cheek.
"Yea. Too true, really. Now lemme see that cut" Riina said, taking a seat next to Lana and turning her head, so that she could see the cut better on the faint morning light.
"Well, it's clean, and looks much better than what it did yesterday. It should heal up nicely." She muttered, ignoring Lana's whining and twisting, while she examined her face.
"Nice. But why do I have an headache size of an Mt. Everest?" Lana growled and rubbed her temples.
"That sake that Kouji gave you might have something to do with the thing…" Riina smiled faintly. "Don't worry kittling. It'll eventually go away." She assured her suffering friend.
"Thank gods. I can't remember a thing of the later events…" Lana muttered, thinking of how many ways she could kill Kouji whit out getting caught.
"You're lucky. Could you do everybody a favor next time and warn us when you're gonna sing?" Riina teased Lana, who looked at her deeply shocked.
"Especially Fushigi Yugi songs." Riina said more seriously.
"I?.. Sang!? But I can't even sing in Japanese!" Lana had turned slightly pale.
"You're telling me!" Riina looked Lana with a straight face, looking like deeply traumatized.
"Har de har har! Very funny." Lana punched the older girl on the shoulder, who fell giggling onto the bed.
After few moments of good laughing, Riina glanced at her friend and stood up. She walked to the wooden dresser and started to dig through it.
"We're in trouble y'know." She said calmly to Lana, her back turned on her, still digging the drawer.
"Eh? What do you mean?" the red head asked in confusion.
"I mean, Tasuki's suspicious about us, and honestly, I don't think Chichiri bought up that story I made up last night." She wrinkled her brows thoughtfully. "They probably think we're spies from Kutou or something. I mean, how else it could be explained that we know so much about them? Not to forget about our clothes and so on." She turned and threw something to Lana.
"Put this on, will ya. You've ripped your shirt on something. Probably when you fought last night."
It was a blue silk tunic that had few simple golden decorations on it. It had ties on the left side of its front. The tunic's sleeves reached to Lana's elbows and the tunic itself reached to half way to Lana's knees. Riina gave her a black sash she had managed to found. Slightly blushing Lana quickly changed from her T-shirt into the tunic while Riina had turned her attention back to the treasures of the old drawer.
"A-HA!" Riina squealed victoriously and turned around, having a needle and some thread on her left hand and a white loose cotton shirt on her right hand.
"It looks great on you, especially with those black jeans of yours." She commented to Lana as she sat back to her bed.
"I bet that'll capture Tasuki's attention…" she winked mischievously as she swiftly changed her warm sweater for the cotton shirt.
"RIINA!!" Lana exclaimed loudly and looked something to throw at her friend while blushing madly.
"Just kidding kittling," Her friend smiled as she tugged on the shirt, which resembled Chichiri's shirt. "Seriously though. We really need to get my backpack *um* well, back."
Lana raised her brow at Riina's troubled looks.
"I know." Lana stared at the older girl for few seconds and turned SD, poking at her forehead.
"Okay. Confess. What in the Suzaku's name do ya have on your pack that is making you so nervous?" she narrowed her SD eyes. "Gods, you're acting like world's gonna end."
"Nothing much…" Riina exclaimed, turning chibi and sweat dropping. " *Um* Just my sketchbook and some stuff. Including my FY music, some CD's and my brand new laptop, Watase's newest FY art book..." she grimaced and flopped on her bed, pulling the blanket over her head. "and my FY DVD boxes. I thought that you might want to borrow those." She added with a pained muffled voice.
A wine popped on Lana's forehead and she slapped the lump in a blanket, which was her friend.
"Baka!! We're SO dead if they'll find it!" she rolled her eyes.
"I know." Came the muffled answer from under the blanket.
"You know." Riina poked her head out and wrinkled her brows thoughtfully "I think I also had the Marianne's and some Blue chocolate that I had bought for you for a present in it too."
Lana jumped up and stared Riina with wide, shocked eyes.
"Did you just say Marianne?!" Lana turned chibi, her Marianne* addiction kicking in, and took a heroic pose. "We simply have to get that pack back!"
"Honestly. I've created a monster…" Riina face faulted and sweat dropped.
*AN: Marianne is a Finnish mint and chocolate candy to which Lana is literally addicted ^~... I'm so evil...
In the meantime, Chichiri was walking towards the room that girls were sharing, to ask them to join for the breakfast. The beautiful morning was already turning late, but nobody had yet seen the girls on today.
'They're probably still sleeping no da. The poor things had had a rough night yesterday. It must have taken a lot from them no da.'
He finally arrived behind of their door and heard someone chattering, though he couldn't make out the words.
'Oh, good! They're already awake no da.' He thought as he knocked on the door.
What he wasn't expecting, was a redheaded human tornado on the legs to bolt out of the room, and slam him to the wall with the door on her way out.
"Daaa." The monk groaned as he slid to the floor.
A dark haired head carefully poked out of the room. The older girl sweat dropped when she noticed Chichiri sitting on the floor, rubbing his head.
"Oh shoot. I'm so sorry. Are you all right?" she asked, helping him up.
"I'm fine, thank you no da." Chichiri smiled and stood up.
"She usually doesn't act like that, but she heard the calling of the breakfast." She smiled apologetically and pointed with her thumb to Lana's general direction.
"She reminds me of someone that I once knew no da." Chichiri chuckled, remembering his Miko and her endless appetite. The older girl of the two smiled and then seemed to realize something.
"Oh, we haven't been introduced yet. You have already met Lana..." She again pointed to the redhead's direction "and my name is Riina." The dark haired girl grinned as they walked down the hall.
"I'm called Chichiri no da." He nodded to Riina who walked besides him.
"Nice to meet you, Chichiri no da."
"It's just Chichiri, no da." Chichiri sweat dropped.
"I know." Riina chuckled softly.
As they were about to walk through the yard in order to get to the dining hall, they saw a chibi Lana darting around the large yard, waving her chibi arms wildly, as if she were desperately looking for something. Riina and Chichiri sweat dropped simultaneously as they watched her running around.
"Excuse me for a second." Riina sighed and walked towards Lana. When she reached her, she calmly bonked her to the head.
"Itai! What was that suppose to mean?!" Lana glared at Riina, rubbing her head.
"It means that you're acting silly. Come on. We're being invited for breakfast." She answered calmly.
"What about…" Lana was about to argue as the older girl interrupted her.
"We can look for it later." she glanced at Chichri who was waiting for them.
Riina had been teaching some Finnish to Lana for couple of years since they had met and she was finally getting the knack of it.
"Oh fine." Lana muttered sulking as they walked to Chichiri.
"Shall we get going? I'm starving." Riina asked cheerfully as she grabbed both of them arms and directed them towards the dining hall.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*turns all chibi with tearry eyes* *awwww* So many reviews!! ^^ *sniffle* I'm SO happy! *cuddles all the reviewers and gives everybody some Marianne's* A big thank you for all of you. I couldn't help but put up a new chapter soon. ^^ You guys are really making my day. Oh, btw, couple of points: One. Since this fic was originally under Lana's name here on ff.net, she only got into chap 4. So everything from now on will be new material. And two. I was thinking that I could put up some sort of mailing list, so if you want me to notify you when I update on this fic, just tell me so on your review and include your e-mail address with the review! ^^ And finally, on with the lovely reviews. ^^
Neko-ane – Hi ya and thank you! ^^ *huge sweat drop* I know I know, we SHOULD have a beta, but the two of us are trying to find all the typos and fix the grammar before putting up anything. It's a bit hard sometimes when English isn't my mother language… *hangs head ashamedly* But we'll get better as we write, I hope. ^^;; *thumbs over her shoulder* You can check out my other fic, Suzaku's Fire, if you like. You can see the improvement after and I had a beta this time! ^^ though she had to fix only few minor grammar mistakes…
chiri26 - *laughs* Well, how bad it'd get depends of how much (or more likely, who's mix I am drinking *gives an amused glare for Anne*) would I drink. Let's just say, that if I am weird when I'm sober, I get really bad when I'm drunk. ;p *chuckles* Oy, you asked it. ;)
Diana-sama - *grins* Thank you! Humor (and sanity) is the salt of life. ^~
*tuns chibi and coughs* Okay. We shall have a short geography lecture here now. *ahem* *creates a 3D holographic planet* Okay. We start here. *points at USA* Now, move onwards to your right. *the image moves to the right to US coast and continues over the Atlantic sea* Here we have Europe. *The image zooms into Europe* I think all of you recognize England, Spain, France and Italy and so on? Good. Now move towards North. *the image moves up, showing German, Holland Denmark* I said North! Some more up, please. *the image shows the three most northern countries of Europe* Now, from the Atlantic coast from left to right, there are Norway, Sweden and over that small sea at the Russian border there is Finland. Everybody got it? Good! ^^
If anyone is interested to hear more of this country, its language, culture etc. feel free to mail directly to me. ^^ Yes, I actually live in Finland.
Songwind - *turns chibi and munches poky* Danks! ;) But you area good writer! ^^ Your Bishonen and Bishoujo is just absolutely great! ^^ *mutters* I should try the same with my Suzaku's Fire, but that's a bit more slower to update than this ficcy… -_-;;;; Anywho. As you saw, Lana's hangover wasn't that bad. *chuckle* She'll survive. And for the rest, *teasing grin* I can't tell you whitout spoiling… ;p
