Disclaimer: I have a drawing talent. Yuu Watase had a more developed one. So who could've drawn and owned Fushigi Yuugi? It's obvious.

Thank you for all the reviews! I love you all!

"Miaka's my sister."

"Oh…" Nuriko did not look surprised. "Are you married? From what I know from what Miaka told me, she married earlier than you did. Aren't you ashamed of losing to your sister? She's got to have a sister in law to teach her how to take care of her baby. How could she get Hikari sick after all our efforts?"

"She found her true love earlier than I did! Also, Hikari did not have a disease! It's a Curse!" Keisuke sputtered. He had no idea Nuriko was so…lovable, or talkative…when he read the book. Hell, the whole thing happened, like in one day? In fact, Nuriko died in half of that day! Keisuke thought.

"I'm just joking. I'm not married either. Speaking of true love, where's Taka? Why are you here instead, huh? Don't tell me you loved Miaka like that! Wow, it would set a new world record! Miaka could win a prize for this; a lot of people in the Universe of the Four Gods are infatuated with her already without you adding to the complication."

"I thought Nuriko had purple hair," Keisuke said flatly.

"Humph, first things first… You tell me your name, and I'll tell you what had actually happened. I could not name you in my head 'Miaka's Onii-chan' could I? Hey, that's a good nickname! Onii-chan!"

"My name's Keisuke and I don't want to be your brother!"

Nuriko, in Miboshi's teenage body, looked downcast. "Well…never mind then…" she walked away. Keisuke suddenly felt cold and alone. He chased after the departing shadow.

"Wait, Nuriko, WAIT! I don't know how to get out of here!"

Nuriko whipped around instantly. "So, brother, I tell you why I had a man's body. Actually, it's a maturing body of a young boy, but…well! You know Taisukun, that sitting creator who had a lot of mirrors? I swear, she had a mirror obsession…"

"Go straight to the point."

"No wonder Miaka ran all the way here! You are certainly not a good brother if you don't hear your sisters out!"

"I've only ONE sister!"

"I am the second!"

"I will not accept a sister like you; you are old enough to be my girlfriend!"

"That's too bad, because Rokou isn't here to be my big brother now…and I certainly am not going to be your girlfriend, because I am engaged!"

"There's somebody who wanted to engage a boy? Engage in what? In a fight?"

Wham!

Nuriko caught Keisuke before he hit the ground after flying high up in the sky. "Honestly, you are an idiot! I am readily available for a fight, onii-chan! See if you can win me!"

"Don't call me 'onii-chan'!"

Nuriko pointedly ignored it. "So, Taisukun suddenly appeared and hit Miboshi and I with a mirror…then black out! Then we fell…and I was caught by Nakago. Funny thing is, he ki-blasted me and took another me away! I figured it's Taisukun's fault! So Miboshi is me, I am Miboshi and vice versa."

"So you really are a girl?"

"That's totally right! And a pretty one too! You ought to see me!"

"I thought you said you weren't married."

"OF COURSE! I AM ENGAGED, NOT MARRIED, YOU DOLT! HOW CAN I DO THAT MEDIUM THING IF I AM MARRIED?"

There was a pause. "Hey, maybe Soi and Tomo can help too! They are virgins!"

Nuriko was surprised. "Keisuke, that's the first time you thought of a bright idea!"

"Yeah, Nuriko. That's also the first time you did not call me 'Onii-chan'!"

"Fine, if you hate me to be your little sis, then Keisuke it is then!"

"I need a beer…"

"Da, you all don't leave me alone there, no da! What did I do wrong?"

"Chiri, can you talk in plain Chinese? Don't beat about the bush! It's getting me dizzy!" Tasuki complained. Chichiri was used to this. He sighed and turned to Ren and Miiru.

"Da?"

"We are tired and want to sleep," Miiru said.

Chichiri was rather sad. "No one wants to listen to me, except maybe Nuriko, Hotohori, Tamahome, Mitsukake and Chiriko, no da! I wish we are fighting with them, no da! Da…"

They reached the destination and Chichiri's mood had lightened up considerably. "Hotohori, I want to ask you something, no da!"

"I'm afraid I have to ask you first, Chichiri," Hotohori replied. "Can you fix my mirror…?"

"No da."

Meanwhile, Ren and Miiru disappeared into a nearby inn. Tasuki tried to hug Nuriko. "Hey, pal! What's up? Where the damn hell did your chi go? We've been looking all over for you!"

Nuriko looked at him in distaste. "What a weird bandit! Though you couldn't beat weird for THAT!" she said, pointing at the masked monk. Chichiri turned to her.

"No da." He turned back to his work.

"The whole Suzaku Seven, with the exception of Chiriko, are weird. Why, it's like the healer was quiet most of the time, but when he does talk, he makes year-long speeches!"

"Nuriko, you kinda forgot to give me a hug." Tasuki said, arms still wide spread.

"I'll give you this!" she said, taking out…Miboshi's weapon! She raised it and began to summon demons at him. "You gay freak! What are you doing, picking on a guy like me? Oh, or are you a paedophile?"

How in the world did Nuriko know I was in love with him in her last life? Tasuki thought. "Nuriko, how did you freaking manage to do that?"

"Miboshi. Either you stop, or I stop you," Nakago intervened. Nuriko huffed and stuffed the sceptre into her pocket.

"Wait a minute, that's…Miboshi, no da? Why's that creepy guy inside of our Nuriko, no da?" Chichiri asked, handing over the fixed mirror.

"The second question I want to ask you is regarding this. Did you feel Nuriko's chi anywhere? Because the real Nuriko is in Miboshi's body. The one we have here is definitely not Nuriko."

"DA…you all should have listened to me!"

"How would we know you are saying something important if you throw all the other useless words into your damned speech?" Tasuki retorted. "Hell, you should have shortened it somehow!"

"I like my speech, no da! Nobody hates my speech, no da! And everything I say is important, down to every word, no da!"

Soi whispered to Hotohori, "They are like that all the time?"

Hotohori smiled gently. "Maybe they are closer friends than we thought."

"You talk like that damned Hotohori!"

Hotohori flared up. "WHAT?"

"Calm down, calm down…" Soi said. Nakago stepped forward.

"Gentlemen, let's stop and hear what Chichiri have to say. Tasuki-kun, one more word and you are going to go flying to heaven."

"You are worse than that damned Nuriko…"

Nakago glowed with a bright blue light, hand raised. Tasuki shut up immediately.

Chichiri closed his eyes (if they aren't already closed all the time in the exterior mask) and concentrated. "Nuriko's…oh dear, no da."

"What happened to the gay man, weird monk?" Miboshi asked curiously. Nakago was still amazed at the body change; Miboshi looked a 100 different from Nuriko.

"She's with another person, no da."

"At least she was darned safe!" Tasuki shot.

"She is safe, but she's with a man, no da…I've never given much thought to this, but do you think that Nuriko could be…"

"I tried to do it to Miaka once. There's a possibility," Nakago said. "Chichiri, lead us there. Or pop us there."

"DA!"

"Stop stressing damned Chichiri!" Tasuki yelled in support of his friend.

"No da. Nakago is right, no da. But first, where's our miko, no da?"

Hotohori blushed. "She's with…"

Nakago ventured a guess. "It's Tomo, right?"

"WHAT THE FREAKING HELL ARE YOU THINKING, DAMNED HOTOHORI?" Tasuki yelled. "THAT GAY GUY IS OPPOSITE OF NURIKO!"

"No, Tomo's rather okay now…she's not that evil…no face-paint either…" Hotohori said, trying to remember Tomo's personality. "All in all, she's good…"

"I'd accept it if you are infatuated with her, Hotohori, no da. She's a woman too, I'd guess, no da."

Soi stepped forward. "I can help you warm up to her if you want…"

"Ack, don't you come near me, you slut!" Tasuki yelled.

"What do you mean? I am still a virgin here!" Soi growled, dark clouds gathering. Literally. Tasuki hopped about, trying to avoid the lightning.

"Hey, watch it, Soi. If he dies, Nuriko would have your head. You will not be happy living married life with her."

"Fine." The dark clouds cleared.

Hotohori led them back to his house. They opened the door to see a horrific sight. "I told you Tomo is a bad idea!" Tasuki said half-heartedly.
