Schweppes: Welcome back! Here's our new chapter, chapter 15.
Meilin: Wow, this is getting really long. Can I go back to being a human? I don't really like being a frog.
Schweppes: Fine, you can go back to normal. MICKEY!
-Mickey appears with a puff of smoke and zaps Meilin back to a human-
Meilin: YAY!
-Mickey disappears again-
Schweppes: Lately, I find myself sick of writing this, but I feel bad because I don't want to leave it with Jack still missing and everything else going on. So I force myself to write this fic. Hope you're all happy.
Warning: Yaoi. There may be yuri later on... just to warn you. And no lemons.
Meilin: YET! NO LEMONS YET!
Schweppes: Whatever makes you happy. You can believe that if you want to.
Meilin: Fine then, I will.
Notes: ... -action- ... (AN) ... 'Riku thinking' ... $Kairi's thoughts$ ... /Riku's notes/ ... \\Schweppes notes\\ ... +singing+
Schweppes: I just realized in chapter 10, 11ish; Yomi, Kurama's enemy, was there to kill Kurama, and then he just suddenly disappeared. I completely forgot about that, as you can tell, and I'm sorry if you wanted to see the fight. I forget about so much, my mind travels a lot and the memories seem to go with it I guess.
Zelgadis: Schweppes and Meilin do not own anything at all. They are too poor to own it, and will never ever own my or anyone else's soul.
Meilin: Says you.
Schweppes: This includes; any Disney, Yu Yu Hakusho, Slayers, Kingdom Hearts, System Of a Down, Full Metal Alchemist, Yu-Gi-Oh, Schweppes gingerale, Rurouni Kenshin, 'If You're Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands', Barney, Oscar Mayer, Invader Zim, Inuyasha
Meilin: Wow... really positive there.
Schweppes: Just ignore him.
Last time: But before Ansem could answer, he had vanished and was nowhere to be seen.
Toxicity
Chapter
15: Jack's Back
'I wonder what the hell that was all about.'
I wandered off to where all the noise was coming from, where my friends were.
On the way there, I saw Kairi looking at a grave, very still and silent, no where near her normal hyper state.
"Hey Kairi! Why're you over here?" I started walking over to her.
Kairi's POV
(Meilin: Why are we doing Kairi's POV?
Schweppes: Because we don't have a choice.
Meilin: EDWAAAAARD! -hugs Ed- I don't wanna... (from Full Metal Alchemist)
Riku: When did he get here?
Sano: Who is he?
Bakura: I am so confused...
Meilin: MINE! -sticks out tongue at Schweppes-
Ed: Where am I? Why am I here? -upon seeing Meilin- GAHHH! YOU OLD BAT GET AWAY FROM ME!
Meilin: -sweatdrop- O-o-old? WHO'RE YOU CALLING OLD YOU FULL METAL PIPSQUEAK!
Ed: WHO ARE YOU TO CALL ME SHORT? YOU'RE SHORTER THAN ME! -attempts to start kicking Meilin-
Sano: Ya sure about that? -poking at their heads- maybe it's your boots, take them off.
Meilin: -heart eyes- Edward yelled at me for being short! YAY!
Zelgadis: What's wrong with you? Here, I think you need coffee.
Meilin: Hmmmmmmm... ok.
Schweppes: You nutbag! Don't give her coffee, she'll just get really really really really hyper!
Zelgadis: You mean she isn't already?
Meilin: Muhahahahahaha! Nope, I wasn't!
Ed: Hah, now I'll be taller because coffee stunts your growth!
Malik: You know that's just a myth, it's not true.
Meilin:
-bouncing off the walls like the true frog she is, stars singing
'Bounce' by System Of A Down-
+Jump! Pogopogopogopogopogopogo
Bounce! Pogopogopogopogopogopogo Up! Pogopogo Down+
Schweppes: SHUUUUTT UPPP! -hit's Meilin over the head, knocking her unconscious... onto Ed.-
Ed: Gahh! Why me?
Meilin: -sleep... or knock out faint talking thing- Edwards is seeexxxyyyyyyyyy.
Ed: -sweatdrop- GET OFF ME!)
Riku started walking over to me, but I barely noticed him, my eyes were set on the Keyblade that lay before me on this grave.
I hadn't even bothered to look at what was written on the grave until just now.
Chihiro
Saehara
December 11, 1963
To
October 31, 1994
Beloved
wife of Ansem
$Ch... Chihiro Saehara. Why does that name sound so familiar? And why should I know her if she's related to Ansem of all people?$
--Flashback--
Everything seemed blurry and in a rush, memories were flooding into my head.
The words echoed in my head, "The Saehara family has ruled Hallow Bastion for generations! This technique has been passed down the Saehara line for GENERATIONS!"
(Ed: Major? Where's Armstrong?
Bakura: You've really got to get used to this place some more. These people like to trick you to think that something's there, when it's really something else by using quotes or names.
Ed: How long have you been here?
Bakura: Since chapter 3.
Ed: ... What chapter is it now?
Bakura: 15
Ed: Will I be stuck here that long?
Meilin: LONGER! You're my favorite and therefore you have to stay forever and ever and ever... AND EVER! -Glomp- Muhahahahahahahaha
Ed: I'll get you for this Zelgadis! You and your coffee.
-Zel is now nowhere to be seen-
Malik: Coward.
Schweppes: ON WITH THE FIC!
Meilin: Awwww, do we have to? I'm having fun! With Ed!
Ed: Go on! Go on!
Schweppes: I think I'll listen to Ed on this one.
Ed: Thank you so much!
Meilin: Aww. I'll get my revenge Schweppes, you just wait.)
This quote continues to echo though my head over and over.
In front of me I see a man sitting in a throne, his face covered in shadows, and a much younger version of me sitting on his lap, playing with some small toy.
Another of a woman lying in a bed, very pale and
coughing rather hoarsely.
The next memory is at a grave with many
flowers around it, looking exactly like the one I am standing at now.
$Could this be... my mother's grave?$
--End Flashbacks--
Riku's POV
I tapped Kairi on the shoulder, "Kairi. Are you alright? Why aren't you responding?"
Almost instantly Kairi snapped out of her trance, her eyes had lit again, she was moving.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know what just happened, what came over me." Kairi was trying to apologize for reasons I wasn't so sure of.
"Umm. That's ok, why don't we get back with everyone else?"
"Ok."
We started walking off in the direction when I saw the mysterious Keyblade as Kairi picked it up and pocketed it.
(Meilin: -singing to the tune of 'If You're Happy and You Know It Clap Your Hands'... or something like that-
+If you have no inspiration,
use the notes!
If you've no plotline to think of, use the
notes!
If you no clue what you're doing
And you brain has gone
all screwy
And there is no inspiration, use the notes+
-claps hands-™© 4-24-2005
Schweppes: YAY! -claps manically-
-Everyone in room sweatdrops, stares, jaws drop open... the classic anime fall, the whole 9 yards.-
Ed: What the hell was that?
Meilin: -Tune to Barney-
+I love you
You love me
Let's go
home and start a family+
With "taxes"
-starts giggling and cannot sing for the time being.-
Bakura: Taxes?
Meilin: -Laughing harder-
Schweppes: It's her codename for sex.
Ed: -head down, trying to hide that fact that his face was as red as a bowl full of cherries.-
Meilin: -Glomps Ed- Time for a commercial!
--commercial break
+My
bologna has a first name has a first name
It's O-S-C-A-R
My
bologna has a second name
It's M-A-Y-E-R
I could eat it every
day
And if you ask me why I'll SAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
That
Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A+
(Do not own Oscar Mayer in any way, shape, or form)
--end commercial
Jack: I said the millionth chapter!
Schweppes: Awwwww! But the millionth is too far away!
Bakura: We want a commercial anyway!
Malik: So there!
Yahiko: Where did Meilin and Ed go?
Sora: They kicked me out of my closet.
Schweppes: They, or Meilin?
Sora: Ummmmm... they?
Schweppes: -sweatdrop-
Riku: What do you mean -your- closet? They kicked me out too.
Schweppes: So, Riku, what was it that YOU where doing in there?
Riku: N-nothing! Nothing at all! Right Sora?
Sora: I don't know what you're talking about Riku, we were-
Riku: -covering Sora's big fat mouth- SHUT UP IDIOT!
Schweppes: Taxes maybe?
Sora: Taxes? Why the hell would we be doing taxes?
Xellos: -whispering to Sora- Taxes means sex
Sora: Ohh, taxes, so yeah.
Riku: Sora! -drags him off to a new closet that appeared out of thin air... like everything else seems to do-
Sally: Jack, how come we never went into the closet?
Jack: Your... You're not serious, right?
Sally: Maaaayyyybbeee.
Jack: But I'm a skeleton, there's certain things lacking that are very... useful or necessary.
Sally: Improvise.
Jack: -speachless-
-A creature come out of the closet that just appeared out of no where with Sora and Riku in it, doing "taxes"-
Zim: -panting- What the hell was that?
Schweppes: Zim? What are you doing back here? And where's GIR?
-Sora and Riku come running out of the closet partially clothed, in towels or something to the effect-
Riku: That thing... so annoying... must run away! -runs some more, causing towel to fall- (he he)
Bakura: -stare... stare... stare... drool- Wait come back! Don't run away! -runs after Riku-
Malik: -pouting and whining- Bakuuurrruraaaa
Schweppes: We really really need to get on with the fic... even if it means temporarily ending these wonderful notes...)
/Why do we even have a fic anymore? It's been destroyed, burnt into smithereens, then drowned, brought back to life and exploded.../
\\WE GET THE POINT!\\
We come back to find a man wearing bandages from head to toe dressed in a gi and carrying a samurai sword.
"Muhahaha! I have come to take over this hell and destroy you all! You will become my slaves!" the man seemed to be enjoying himself very muchly.
Kurama had joined the group in the time that I had left, "You fool. How many times do I have to beat you for you to understand that you're a weakling?"
"How dare you call me a weakling!" the man now charged at Kurama with his samurai sword flying every direction in an attempt at hitting the fox demon.
Kurama simply took out with keyblade, the Divine Rose and hit him with one hit, that would have killed him if he wasn't already dead.
Kurama walked over to Hiei, "Where have you been?"
Hiei still had the trench coat on his back that Schweppes put there, "I went ahead."
"You never told anyone, you just went missing. I was starting to get worried," Kurama sounded very concerned.
"Hn."
Sora was yelling, "Look, everyone, we've finally found Jack!"
(Jack: YAAAAY! You've finally found me! I've been waiting for 11 chapters! And finally, I'm back! Woo!
Meilin: -out of closet sitting with Ed- Only cuz you kept complaining.
Sally: So... I'm still in pieces, but I guess that's ok for now since Jack came back.
Ed: In pieces? Ok?
Sally: Yeah, I'm a doll.
Ed: HOMUNCULI! Are you... like Lust?
Sally: I don't know what you're talking about.
Jack: Leave her alone shrimp.
Ed: Who'd you call an ultra hyper pint-sized pipsqueak!
Jack: Come on, you go up to my knees.
Ed: -claps, arm turns into blade thing- I'LL KILL YOU FOR THAT!
Jack: I'm already dead.
Ed: Then I'll kill you again! -runs after Jack-
Meilin: -stares-
Schweppes: Meilin, you really need a hobby or something.
Meilin: Ed's my hobby
Ed: -stops instantly, looks towards Meilin- ... -continues running a second later, way too slow for Jack's long legs-
Sally: Now where'd Malik and Bakura go?
Sora: After we left, they took over our closet.
Sally: -sweatdrop-
Schweppes: Contain yourselves people!
Sora: -whimpering- But it's sooooo hard to!
Riku: Yep!
Meilin: I can contain myself, I just don't want to.
Schweppes: Sure ya can... like that's believable.
Meilin: Ok... not with Ed around. But I did when everyone else was there!
Schweppes: How do we know that? How do we know you didn't kidnap them when we weren't writing the fic?
Meilin: H... how did you know?
Schweppes: You just told me!
Meilin: Grrrrrr)
I ran over, to see if this was true. Jack was there, he was wandering around in a sort of a daze.
"Jack? Is it really you?" Kairi questioned this.
"Oh, hello everyone," nothing seemed wrong with him, not that I could tell.
Kurama spoke, "So, this is the infamous Jack I've heard about."
"Yes, I suppose. Where's the Mayor?" he noticed.
"Oh, he got lost in some weird woods and there wasn't much point in going back to look for him, or else we'd get lost ourselves. But I'm sure he'll show up somewhere." I explained to him.
"Let's hope he's alright. But who are you two?" he motioned over to Kurama and Hiei.
"I'm Kurama, and this here is Hiei, he doesn't talk very much." Kurama introduced the two of them.
"Nice to meet you."
"Well, we should get going now, to find out who kidnapped you in the first place."
"That was the work of Lock, Shock and Barrel. I'm not sure who told them to, but they just kept me in a box for a while and I ended up here, in this place. I found this graveyard yesterday, I guess it's a good thing I stayed."
"So you've been here since yesterday? How come we didn't see you or you didn't hear us earlier?"
"It's a gigantic graveyard, I was too far away."
Hiei grunted and started to walk off into the town.
"Hiei! Wait up, don't go running off again!" Kurama ran off to catch up with his lover.
"Ummm... now what do we do? We found you, realized that Schweppes and Meilin are some sort of demon things, got a whole bunch of Keyblades -"
Jack interrupted Sora, "Wait, what do you mean, Schweppes and Meilin are demons?"
"Oh, yeah. Meilin and I are demons. Meilin's a Youko, some rare fox demoness, there's not much left for some reason. Oh, a princess too that Kurama fell in love with. And I'm some sort of wolf-demon-thing, with a rare fire quality." Schweppes informed Jack on this newly found information.
"Maybe all the female Youko are hiding in an underground place or a cave or something like that, and that's why it seems that not many are left." Jack lended us his thoughts.
"You can tell Kurama that once he gets back. But I'm afraid that we must find something else to do, or this fic will go nowhere and it'd be all notes and everything like that. There at least needs a fic for the notes to revolve around!" Sora was trying to get us to do something... go somewhere. 'I guess we're boring.'
Kurama was yelling in the distance, "Everyone come here, see what we've found!"
As commanded, we all followed his directions and arrived at the scene we were told to see. In front of us was Hiei with a keyblade in his hand.
Sora gasped, "That's the Metal Chocobo!"
'Leave it to Sora to figure that one out.'
"Hey, do you think you guys would come with us on our journey. We're not completely sure what we're going to do, but we have these Keyblades for one reason or another, so I'm sure you'd come in handy." Kairi was talking to Kurama and Hiei.
"Hmm... I suppose we could go, there's not much for us to do here right now, and it'd be nice to be with my princess for some more. What do you think Hiei?" Kurama responded.
"Hn" was Hiei's response... as always.
"Okay then, we'll go with you," so Kurama and Hiei we're going to go with us. 'I guess some more company will be good.'
"Then let's find a way back to Halloween Town. This would be so much easier with the Mayor." Jack mentioned.
"I guess we'll have to go find him then. Why don't we call on Botan to help us? BOTAN!" Kurama we yelling out for the grim reaper.
Schweppes: This fic is getting way too long now.
Meilin: I suppose the rest will have to wait till next chapter. How bout we bribe them by saying that if they don't review, then the next chapter will never come! Muhahahahaha!
Jack: Didn't that coffee wear off yet?
Zel: She's been stealing mine. -tear-
Xellos: Poor Zel, I'll go get some more!
Zelgadis: NO! If you do, then she'll just take that too! I'll have to go without coffee for a little bit.
Bakura: You? Without coffee? Hahaha! Like that's ever going to work.
Malik: -puts arms around Bakura- Like you without "taxes"?
Bakura: NOOOO! NOT THAT!
Kouga: Hahaha! I don't see why you people ever want to leave, this place is fun.
Riku: Are you crazy? They first kidnap us, then they trick us into making us stay longer and force us to help them with tests, threaten us that we'll never go home if we don't do what they say... we're their slaves!
Meilin: You over-exaggerating.
Sora: Yeah, she's right. They haven't done half of that stuff yet.
Schweppes: Yet? Are you implying that we WILL do that and you'll suffer the consequences?
Sora: Yeah, pretty much.
Kouga: This place doesn't seem as nice anymore, but it's still much better then being around a bunch of wolves.
Schweppes: So, Kouga. Where exactly are you from?
Kouga: I'm not really sure.
Sano: I agree with Riku and Sora, I don't want to be here anymore.
Yahiko: I second that!
Ed: This place doesn't seem that bad. -looks over to Meilin-
Meilin: Yay!
Schweppes: As gingerale, I say you have to stay.
Sally: As gingerale?
Schweppes: Yes, you have a problem with that?
Sally: Uhhh... not really.
Jack: Sally, you really need to get used to saying no.
Ed: It's you! The homunculi! -pointing... dangerously, at Sally-
Jack: Don't point at her like that! You could poke someone's eyes out!
Ed: Like... yours!
Jack: You can have fun trying.
Kouga: Can't you see he doesn't have eyes?
Sano: Yeah, how dumb can you be... shorty.
Ed: I'LL GET YOU FOR THAT! NO ONE CALLS ME SHORT AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!
-Meilin is seen holding back Ed from attacking Sano... Ed's arm blade ready for action.-
Schweppes: I now declare that this fic is officially over.
Meilin: Who are you to declare something like that?
Schweppes: The writer, that's who.
Malik: Bye bye readers! There'll be much fun without you. Right Bakura?
Bakura: -nods head-
Everyone (except Ed): BYE!
Schweppes: Until next chapter.
