Okay, everybody! Chapter eight! It's the one you'v been waiting for, AmnarRanma, and everybody who was waiting for our Dr. Scott to shyow up and sing his Eddie song:P I keep thinking about it, and it kinda sounds like Yusuke in the song instead of Hiei, but...whatever.
Kuwabara chased after Kurama with a whip, Koenma following him. Kurama slid across the laboratory floor as Kuwabara whipped him.
"Mercy!" He screamed. Kuwabara hit him once more with the whip.
"How did it happen!"
"I was only away for a minute...Master."
Kurama ran to the moniter to try and find Yusuke on it.
"Master..." He said softly. "We have a visitor..." Koenma and Kuwabara stood by him, looking at the moniter. Koenma smiled.
"Hey, Scotty- Dr. Takanawa." He said, looking at Kuwabara. Kurama looked at him.
"You know this earthling?" Kuwabara glared at him and hit him in the arm. "I mean, person?"
"I most certainly do. He happens to be an old friend of mine."
"I see..." Kuwabara said. "Sothis wasn't simply a chance meeting. You came here with a purpose."
"I told you, my car broke down!" Kuwabara and Koenma glared at each other. "I was telling the truth!"
"I know what you told me, Koenma. But this Dr Everett Scott. His name is not unknown to me."
"He was a Science Teacher at Denton High."
"And now he works for your Government, doesn't he, Koenma? He's attached to the Bureau of Investigation of that which you call U.F.O's. Isn't he, Koenma?"
"He might be. I don't know."
"Hmmmm. He'll be in...the Zen Room!"
Takanawa sat in his wheel chair, looking around at the zen things, confused.
"Well...let's ask him!" Kuwabara threw a switch marked "TRIPLE CONTACT ELECTRO MAGNET". Takanawa's wheelchair speeds down the corridors and rooms. He went through Botan's room, her and Keiko sitting on her bed. They watched Takanawa speed past her bed and out another door. Takanawa's wheelchair stopped in front of Koenma, Kuwabara and Kurama in the laboratory.
"Dr. Takanawa!" Koenma said, shoving his hand in Dr. Takanawa's face.
"Koenma! What're you doing here?"
"Don't play games, Dr. Takanawa." Kuwabara said, looking down at him. " You know very well what Koenma Majors's doing here. It was part of your plan was it not that he, and his female, should check the layout for you. Well, unfortunately for you all there's to be a change of plans. I'm sure you're adaptable, Dr. Takanawa. I know Koenma is."
Koenma looked at the floor, fixing his glasses. Takanawa looked up at Kuwabara, his hands in his lap.
"I can assure you that Brad's presence comes as a complete surprise to me. I came to find Hiei." Koenma looked at Dr. Takanawa, surprised.
"Hiei? I've seen him! He's-" Kuwabara cut in, moving closer to Dr. Takanawa.
"What do you know about Hiei, Dr. Takanawa?"
"Well...I happen to know a great deal about a lot of things. You see Hiei happens to be my nephew."
The group heard Yukina gasp from the tank. They looked at it. Kuwabara, looking surprised, walked over the tank. He yanked the curtain off of the tank. Yukina and Yusuke stood up, sheets wrapped around their bodies. (Okay, so I'm gonna use their Rocky Horror names in this part, because it's funny and it would totally sounds funny and wrong .:P)
"Janet!"
"Dr. Scott!"
"Janet!"
"Brad!"
"Rocky!"
Yusuke looked at Kuwabara.
"Janet!"
"Dr. Scott!"
"Janet!"
"Brad!"
"Rocky!"
Yusuke looked at Kuwabara again. Kuwabara glared at his creation.
"Listen! I made you...and I can break you jsut as easily!"
From behind and above them, they all heard a gong. They all looked up at Keiko standing up on the balcony looking down at the laboratory, holding the gong.
"Master, dinner is prepared!"
"Excellent," Kuwabara said. He looked at Dr. Takanawa and walked to him.
"Doctor Takanawa, you can sample the speciality of the house - roast loin of pork." He gave Yukina and Yusuke a if-looks-could-kill look, saying.
"Under the circumstances, formal dress is to be optional!"
With that he took off to the lift.
"Food has always played a vital role in life's rituals. The breaking of bread - the last meal of the condemned man - and now this meal. However informal it might appear you can be sure there was to be very little 'bonhomie'." Genkai said.
Kuwabara sat at the head of a large coffin shaped table. In front of him was a electric carver. Koenma and Yukina, still in her bra and ripped slip, sat on Kuwabara's right, Dr. Takanawa sat the opposite from him, and Yusuke and Botan sat on his left. They all sat in silence as Kurama and Keiko came in through the double doors of the kitchen. Kurama carried a large joint of meat as Keiko carried the wine. Kurama sat the roast loin down in front of Kuwabara. Keikoe poured out the wine then returned to Kuwabara side, who lifted up his wine glass.
"A toast...to absent friends."
"To absent friends." Everyone mumbled, raising their wine glasses.
Kuwabara put his glass down and began to cut the meat, that being the only sound in the dining room. Dr. Takanawa looked across the table at Kuwabara, looking down at the meat.
"I cam here to descuss Hiei..." Botan looked at him surprised and a little scared, banging her plate.
"Hiei!"
Kuwabara looked at Botan, and pretending to jab the electric knife at her. She looked back down at her plate as Kuwabara went back to cutting the meat.
"That's a rather tender subject...Another slice anyone?"
Botan pushed her chair back, still looking down. "Excuse me..." She said softly, getting up from the table and going to her room. They heard her slam her door, crying loudly. Dr. Takanawa looks at the side, whispering to nobody in peticular.
"I knew he was in a bad crowd, but it was worse than I imagined," He looked back at the table. "Aliens!" The all looked at Dr. Takanawa.
"Dr. Takanawa!"
"Go on, Dr. Takanawa-or should I say Dr. Von Takanawa?" Koenma looked at Kuwabara.
"Just what are you implying!"
"That's alright! That's alright, Koenma..."
"But Dr. Takanawa..." Takanawa silenced Kuwabara with a gesture. He looked at them all, singing.
"From the day he was born, he was trouble.
He was the thorn
In his mutter's side.
She tried in vain..."
Genkai opened a book, looking up a little.
"But he never caused her
Nothnig but shame..."
"He left home the day she died.
From the day she was gone
All he wanted
Was rock and roll,
Porn.
Und a motorbike.
Shooting up junk."
Genkai looked at some pictures of a naked woman, Elvis, and Hiei on his motorcycle, and an article that said "Thug bashes woman, 66" and mug shots of Hiei (:P).
"He was a low down
Cheap little punk."
"Taking everyone for a ride!" Everybody began to sing along with Takanawa.
"When Eddie said
He didn't like his teddy
You knew he was a no good kid.
But when he threatened your life
With a switch blade knife."
"Whatta guy!" Kuwabara said from his seat.
"Makes you cry." Yukina said, looking around.
"Und I did."
In her room, Botan rested her head on her desk, using her arms as a pillow. She got up, walking to her bed, passing by a wall covered with Hiei's pictures, singing.
"Everybody shoved him,
I very nearly loved him.
I said, hey listen to me,
Stay sane inside insanity.
But he locked the door
And threw away the key!"
She collapsed on her bed, starting to cry.
Takanawa took out a note.
"But he must have been drawn
Into something
Making him warn, me,
In a note
Which reads..."
Everybody, except Kuwabara, Kurama and Keiko, crowded around Takanawa.
"What's it say? What's it say?"
Hiei's voice over:
"I'm out of my head
Oh hurry, or I may be dead.
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds,
Yaaaow!"
"When Eddie said he didn't like his teddy
You knew he was a no good kid.
And when he threatened your life
With a switch blade knife."
"Whatta guy!"
"Makes you cry..."
"Und...I...did."
Kuwabara jumped up and grabbed the hem of the table cloth. He yanked it off, sending the plates and food flying to the floor, reavealing a glass coffin containing decomposing remains of Hiei's body. Everybody jumped back and screamed.
Mm...end of chapter eight, everybody. Uh...sorry you had to see that, Hiei fans...that's just tons and tons of make up on him, I swear...:P
