this
are things said by the author, me Nezumi-san. Thank you.
CHAPTER 4: Yard Work!
The Main House is needing some yard work done. Who better suited for the job then our favorite characters...
Hatsuharu, Momiji, and Ritsu!
(dun,dun,dun.)
Again, it's hot,sticky, and well, hot...
Hatsuharu Sohma was laying outside under a tree, trying to beat the heat, while also enjoying his life as a directionless (is that a word?) cow.
(At least he's not a sheep!Stupid sheep!)
"Haaaaaaaaaa-rooooo!" Momiji, complete with weird suit and bunny ears, bounded up to him. Ritsu followed close behind, muttering apologies to the grass he was walking on.
Haru sat up while the Usagi began talking, "Guess what!"
"What?"
"Akito says he wants some yard work done and asked if we would do it! Yay! Yard Work! Yard Work!"
" 'We' ? I don't like yard work..."
"Too bad!" Momiji aswered in an EVIL voice with a smile on his face.
They made their way to a shed behind the house, where the tools were kept.
Hmmm...What will we need? Thought Momiji while sitting on what he thought was a miniture car.
"We'll need that lawn mower, that you're sitting on Momiji." Haru guestured to the 'mini car', "Those loppers, Ritsu," He glanced at the wall behind the monkey, then added, "Be careful with them."
What Does Yuki Use?
Ah!
"Uh, and that shovel and hoe and that's it."
"That's it! Well, okay...Let's get started!"
Haru shrugged at his cousin and they made their way to the easiest part of the yard. The garden.
"Okay, now if you're not sure what something is, a plant or something, leave it alone and I'll get to it."
He didn't want them to suffer from Akito on account of low IQ.
They all got on their hands and knees and began pulling 'weeds'.
"Uhm...Haru-chan?" said Ritsu quietly.
"Yes, Ritsu."
"Umm...is this a weed?" He said holding something with his gloved hands with three red and gold splotched leaves that looked 'relatively' like Poison Ivy. Haru's eyes inspected the plant.
"It's pretty. I wonder if Akito would like this in the house...Why don't you go put it in a pot, Ritsu, and give it to Akito."
"Oh...okay. Thank you."
Ritsu shuffled away back to the shed.
"Haaaaa-rooo! Are we finished yet? I wanna mow the lawn!"
"Yeah,sure." He glanced at the garden, well what was left of it anyway, " I think it looks nicer than it did."
"Yup!"
They put up the tools and gathered the weeds into trash bags.
Then time for: Mower's Ed.
Students: Hatsuharu and Momiji Sohma.
Bystanding Pedestrian: Ritsu Sohma.
(You will notice there is no teacher. Ritsu,as he has said before, has no talents and neither do the other two except for singing and turning Black.)
Hatsuro inspected the strange device that cut the grass he so loved to eat.
Why not just order some cows?
(Why not order cows? Because the budget is tight at the Main House and Akito doesn't feel like spending that kind of money right now!)
Okay, no need to get angry,...Moody.
He hopped on the thing and looked at the levers.
"Momiji, there's a rabbit on here."
"Really!" He jumped on with Haru and inspected his namesake which was placed across from a turtle.
"I guess I mean 'fast' on this thing.Well, you better start, Hatsuro!"
"Uh, okay."
Haru started the sudden-death-trap-for-trees and at that same moment, Black Haru took over.
Heavy metal plays LOUDLY in the background.
(Go Heavy Metal!)
"Woohoo!" He sped off making doughnuts in he grass and trampling flowers...then...
a tree.
(Now why a tree you may wonder? Well, a rock is too obvious and so is a stick and, well, this is what happened to my brother. shrugs)
The sudden-death-trap-for-trees otherwise known as a 'lawn mower' ground it's way about three feet up Akito's favorite cherry tree.
Black Haru let White Haru back.
"What the...?"
Haru stared at the tree he faced and looked at it questioningly. Ritsu and Momiji peered through their hands which were covering their faces, or in Momiji's case, his mouth.
"Oh ...crap..."
That got Ritsu started, "WE'RE SO SORRY DEAR-TREE-THAT-AKITO-LOVED-SOOOOOOOOOOOO-MUCH! GOMEN NASAIIIIIIIIIII! GOMENNASIGOMENNASAIGOMENNASAI-"
"Ristu, it's okay. We won't get in too much trouble (I hope)."
Haru finally broke his stare from the tree and pulled the lever in reverse. It was worse without the mower.
There, smack in the middle of the trunk, were monstrous gashes in the once beautiful bark. Horrified at his gruesome mistake Haru decided to commit seipukku...
Sadly...
It didn't happen.
(Aww...but I like violence and sad endings. Poo.)
At least not until Haru informed Akito. Then he was locked in a room with a short sword.
Then Yuki and Kyo and Rin and Ritsu and Momiji and Tohru and Shigure and Hatori and Kureno and Hiro and Kisa and Kagura and Ayame and (is that it?)...Well, they come and save him, Akito is taken to an asylum (with a verrry horrifying case of Poison Ivy) and Haru marries Rin, his savior and they live happily ever after.
THE END
