The girls sat awkwardly on their knees in what seemed to be the living room of the Japanese house. They looked back and forth at one another sending odd looks between the 3. The 2 boys sat in front of them watching as the girls sent dirty glares at each other.
"So… I'm Shigure, what are you're names?" The tall dark haired man asked. They didn't know what to do. All three were drooling over him as well. Blaze was bored though and tired of the constant awkward silences so she decided to speak up.
"I'm Blaze, this is Brooke and that's Rae"
"BLAZE!" The other 2 shouted at her.
"What! It's not like you guys were saying anything!" Rae gave Blaze a Death glare and then quietly said "And for a good reason! We don't know where we are"
"What was that?" Yuki asked questionably.
"Uh… I said we should go our house isn't very far." Rae quickly thought up.
"Oh alright well it was nice meeting you girls." Shigure said
The girls began to stand up and say their thanks and goodbyes… and then Blaze's high heels once again got in the way. Her heel hooked onto the leg of the table causing her to fall right onto Shigure and Rae, Rae then fell onto Yuki and Brooke. Just when it happened two large puffs of smoke broke out and as the girls sat on the ground the smoke began to clear. In the place of Yuki sat and rat, and in the place of Shigure sat a dog.
"OOOOOHHHHH HOW CUTE!" Rae and Brooke yelled and then each picked one up and began to pet them.
"Of course a Dog and a Rat… what no Kitty… Bunny… Squirrel? Just my luck." Blaze complained.
"Ok now they are completely adorable… but are they the guys?" Brooke asked still playing with the rats little paws.
"They can't be I mean Shigure was so hot… how could he turn into a mutt like that?" Blaze said smugly.
"You think I'm hot huh?" The dog spoke.
"I believe she actually called you a mutt and you find it as a compliment" the rat said. The girls could only stare with their mouths open.
"Well Rae… I guess that answers your question!" Brooke said between giggles.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Ok so you turn into animals when hugged by someone of the opposite sex? Interesting" Rae repeated what the boys had told them.
"That was barley a hug! That was like half a hug, I mean I fell into your arms its not like I did it willingly!" Blaze said a bit frustrated and confused.
"When do you change back?" Brooke asked
"That's the thing, we never know when we do, and when it does happen we're…" Before Yuki could even finish his sentence there was another large poof from both of them and then when the smoke began to clear it became painstakingly obvious that they were-
"Naked" everyone said in unison.
The boys quickly grabbed there clothes and began to change. Brooke turned bright red and turned around, as Rae did the same. Blaze on the other hand was forced to turn around by Rae.
"Were done" said Yuki
"Hey, boys, you've got some nice…"Blaze was interrupted by Rae's hand slapping the back of her head.
"I was going to say dishes! They have nice dishes look!" Blaze picked up a dish from the table and flashed it in front of Rae's eyes.
"Ssssuuuurrrrreeee" Rae and Brooke said, far too familiar with Blaze's excuses.
"So is it only you two that live here and… turn into little cute animals?" Brooke said wishing she could play with little rat Yuki again.
"No actually we live with 2 other people, our cousin Kyou and our friend Tohru" Shigure said.
"Tohru… isn't that a girls name?" Rae asked curiously. "Is she like… your girlfriend or something?"
"No no no!" Shigure said waving his hands back and forth. "She is our maid I guess you could say. She also goes to school with Yuki."
"So where are they?" Brooke asked.
"Well Tohru is at work and Kyou… he could be any where" Yuki said.
"Well that's cool, are they cursed too?" Blaze asked.
"Well Kyou is. Like we said several members of the Sohma family are."
"That's mad cool" Blaze said a big smirk on her face.
"Well you guys, we better go I mean we have to find a place to stay after all." Rae said.
"wait…" Shigure said" I thought you said you lived near by"
"Smooth Rae, smooth." Brooke blandly said
"Yeah about that… I lied"
"Well…why? What do you have to hide?" Yuki asked becoming a bit more frantic.
"Well… you guys have a curse… I guess you could say we do too."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"So let me get this strait" Shigure started, eyes widened in pure confusion and shock. "You 3 are just 3 of the original elementals. You can throw lightning, fire, and water balls. You can Glow in the dark, and set things on fire with you're mind and walk and breathe under water. You were sent into a portal by a …demon over 2 years ago, and have been separated from your other friends since then. You keep getting… transferred to different worlds and times, and the only way for you to fully fix thing if the powers that be think that you have fixed enough through time and space to go back to your normal lives and relive you're years that you missed?"
"Right" the girls replied now saddened just thinking about the friends they had made and lost in other worlds and mostly about they friends that had disappeared from there lives so long ago.
"Well, what was the day that you left?" Yuki asked.
"April 27th 2003" Rae replied.
"Wow that was over 2 years ago." Yuki added.
"Were getting closer you guys! Maybe our next landing will be only… 1 year off! Then just a few months. I'm sure we will be back soon enough." Brooke said positively.
"Then what, we go back to find that we have changed our world to the point that we can't bare to live there?" Blaze said anger wrenching at her.
"This future isn't changed so what makes you think ours will be?" Brooke said defensively.
"What makes me think that is that we still have a ways to go! How do you know we won't land in the middle of Iraq next time and mess things up more than they already are! How do you know that we won't be the reason for some country to declare war on America? How do you know that we won't cause World War III? Tell me, what makes you think that we will have a world to go back to! We don't know what the powers that be want us to fix! For all we know they could want us to fix things so that it would be easier for them!" By the time Blaze had finished Brooke was backed into a corner in tears. Blaze may have seemed like the one who did nothing but crack jokes and bang guys, but she did. She thought a lot about what would have happened if there was a WW III, or if she and her family had been stuck in Germany during WW II. War disgusted her, and the thought of causing one made her bones nearly jump from her skin.
When Blaze turned around she received a large smack in the face from Rae.
"Why you Bitch! What the hell did you do that for!" Blaze shouted and she brought a fire ball to her hand.
"Don't ever say that. The prophesy said that we were to fix things in time for a better future, not to ruin it. Don't think that we are doing this for nothing, and don't bring Brooke down, she's the only one having an open mind to a brighter future."
For the next few hours the girls discussed with the boys about where they were to stay. Shigure quickly suggested that they stay there. A bit too quickly. The girls decided since they had no where else to go that they would stay there. Then Kyou came home.
