Freckledgirl: I'm not writing this chapter during my classes, aren't ya proud of me? Silence Just say yes. Anywho, on with the good stuff!
Disclaimers: I don't own YYH or its characters. Yes, that's right, and those lawyers I mentioned in chapter 3 are still stalking me. Shakes stick at a lawyer GERROFF MY ROOF!
Mia, Jin, Chuu, Touya, and Rinku set off out of the Dark Tournament arena, intending to find a place to stay. Mia was still a bit dazed, but in a good way (A/N: Great, that sounds like she's high or something...). The group walked down the same path Mia had come roaring down earlier, which apparently led to a nearby town. Jin, who had been walking next to Mia, turned to her. "Now, jest what part of the Ningenkai are ya from? I've been ta Japan visitin' Yusuke, but I don't know tha' much about it."
"I'm from the United States, it's across the world from Japan."
"I've heard o' that place! Lots of cowboys and stuff, righ'?" Jin said, grinning like a little kid.
Laughing, Mia replied, "Not anymore, but I guess there used to be. I'm from Los Angeles, specifically."
I wonder If I'm ever gonna see it again... It may be polluted, violent, and home to some of the most filthy rich people in the world, but it's my home and I love it she thought to herself.
"I just remembered, my parents are gonna be freaked out by tonight when I don't come home. Is there any way I can contact the Ningenkai or something?" she asked.
"Well, time's different here than where yer from. So technically, ye've only been gone fer a minute or so.
"Oh. That's good I guess," she said, thinking that that was a bit strange...
They continued walking though the peaceful forest, interrupted only by Rinku humming to himself. Suddenly, Mia realized that she felt a little strange. Lighter, actually. She looked down and realized that she was floating a few inches above the ground!
She shrieked, even though she was hardly off solid ground. Jin was laughing his ass off royally, and she realized that he was the cause of the strange phenomenon.
"Woo! That was even better than I was expectin' it ta be!"
"Wha-What's going on! Jin, are you doing this?" Mia asked frantically.
"I should maybe tell ya then, I'm a wind master! I control wind an' all that good stuff." Jin said, clutching his stomach and laughing.
"Thanks for the warning! Now lemme down!" Mia scrambled around in the air, from about ten feet up now, completely helpless.
"Haha, fine, spoil me fun," he said, still laughing. With a wave of his hand the air that had been supporting her disappeared, bringing her falling back down to earth at an alarming rate, making Mia scream.
Obviously unalarmed, Jin simply caught her in his strong arms. "Erm, thanks..." Mia said, then blushed, realizing her position. Jin smiled down at her, but didn't quite let her down.
Suddenly, a strong Australian accent cut in. "Well now, Jin, ye've only known the Sheila for a half hour! Maybe me an' the others should walk a bit ahead, eh?" Chuu said, guffawing heartily at his own mighty wit. Jin set her down, blushing faintly, and Mia decided that it would be a good time to adjust her shoelace. Rinky giggled, and Touya just shook his head.
"C'mon, let's keep going," Jin said. In about a half hour the group had reached a bustling town. Walking down the street, Touya spotted a payphone.
"I ain't got any change though," said Chuu.
"Me neither," added Jin, and Touya and Mia both said the didn't have any. During all this, Rinku whistled innocently and played with his yo-yos. Chuu and Jin exchanged a glance, strode over to Rinku, and, without a word, proceeded to grab his ankles and turn him upside down.
"Lemme down! Lemme down right now!" Rinku yelled as several yo-yos and some coins showered out of his pockets.
"No hard feelin's then Rinky, right? 'Twas necessary ya know," Jin said as he and Chuu put Rinku back on the ground. Jin inserted the coins into the payphone and waited a few secnds, then spoke into the phone in a mock serious voice, without even his Irish accent.
"Hello? Yes, is this a mister Yusuke Urameshi? It is. This is an summons to the Supreme Court on several counts of forgettin' about yer buddy Jin! Yusuke, ye daft bugger, ha are ye?" Jin laughed, listening for a few seconds as a voice exploded on the other end of the phone line loud enough for the group to hear.
"Well, me and the boys are in town and we need a place ta crash. Us and a lovely lassie by the name o' Mia we happened to run into," he said, glancing laughingly at Mia. "We can? Great! See ya in a half hour then!"
Turning to the other, he said "It's settled, we'll be crashin' at Yusuke's place. Now let's get a move on, shall we?"
