Chapter Eight

"Revenge! Mwahahahaha!" Meagan rubs her hands together in glee. "It is sweet."

Scurrying about the mansion and making sure everything is in place, Meagan forces Malia to make sure that everything goes as plan as she enters her room. Surprisingly, Nissi and Olivia are sitting on her bed with wicked grins on their faces. Meagan rolls her eyes at them, asking them to please leave so that she can complete her prank. Nissi's grin widens,

"Oh, Meagan. Meagan, Meagan, Meagan. We're going to help your prank."

"You are?"

"Yes..." Olivia nods. "Come with us."

The two grab her and force her into a spare room. Meagan, now knowing that something is not right, struggles to get away. But to no avail as the two complete Nissi's dastardly, evil plan in a mere two minutes.

Meanwhile, Malia forces Kuwabara into an empty room and commands that he not go anywhere or else. Then she heads off down in search of Vanessa. Meagan has been planning this prank ever since she awoke and found herself in Kuwabara's bed, naked. Day and night, day and night, day and night. Well...maybe not as forever as I make it seem, but she has been planning this delicious prank for a long while.

"Oh, Vanessa..."

Vanessa looks up from her place on the couch as Malia calls her name happily. "Eh?" She is saddened by the fact that there is absolutely nothing on television. Two-hundred channels and nothing on except the news. And who wants to watch the news? Malia grabs her hand and drags her away saying something like "Inuyasha...visit...meet him..." Sighing and hoping that her friend has not lost her mind, Vanessa follows unwillingly as Malia leads her to an empty room. "GO SEE!"

Vanessa walks into the room, eyes instantly widening with happiness. Before her, looking a bit confused, INUYASHA sits in his weird doggy style before her. Sadly, this is what Vanessa sees. Please remember that Kuwabara is sitting in this room also. (a/n: Nissi, you are brilliant. Okay, just had to say that.) And what he sees is his beloved Yukina. Yukina. Hiei's half-sister; the former love of his life. And if Vanessa won't admit her undying love for him, then he'll just have to stick with Yukina. At least until Vanessa becomes jealous of him and Yukina and comes running back to him.

"Um...hi."

"HI!" Kuwabara--please remember that to Vanessa it is Inuyasha--"Oh my darling you are so wonderful!"

"Um...how did you get in here?"

"Eh? Malia stuck me in here."

"She did that to me, too!"

"It was fated that we meet and that our love be sealed forever more!"

"Right. Okay."

The two sit in awkward silence until Kuwabara, deciding to make a move on his beloved Yukina, grabs her firmly by the shoulders and kisses her. Vanessa is surprised, to say the least. But kissing her wonderful dog boy is much better than kissing Kuwabara so she decides to go along with whatever Inuyasha has in mind. And right now, all he has in mind is kissing her. Vanessa hears a little squeak come from up above but chooses wisely to ignore it. Shame because if she had, she would have noticed something. Something kind of terrible.

But to explain this terrible presence, we must go back about five minutes to the time which Olivia and Nissi had carried Meagan out of her room and into this one. Meagan knew that she was in serious trouble once she saw--drumroll please--the duct-tape. Her eyes had gone wide with rage and fear as Olivia bound her body so that she couldn't move and Nissi wrapped tape all around her. Then Olivia lifted her high, high up into the air until she reached the cieling. And there, they bound her. Yes, they bound her to the cieling with duct-tape. And duct-tape, despite what some people may think--is very strong.

So here Meagan is now, taped to the cieling and watching her precious plan unfold before her very eyes. But, Nissi added one last little embarassment to the prank. Nissi can not just decid to prank Meagan in the middle of her own prank and make her watch it unfold nicely but grossly before her eyes. Oh no--Nissi has to make ten times worse than that. Olivia, on Nissi's command, has asked Malia one more favor of her newely found illusion powers. She asked if could be seeing something different than everyone else. Malia oblidged immediately, ready to cause more mayhem.

Now Meagan is not only seeing her friend Vanessa and her "boyfriend" Kuwabara make out in front of her very eyes, she is seeing them making out naked. (a/n: o.0) Yes. While the two are still fully clothed and clutched in each others arms, Meagan is watching them do this without any clothes whatsoever. She tries to keep her eyes closed as tight as possible but the way that the duct-tape is situated across her face makes this very hard to do without being hurt more than she already is. She tries hard not to whimper, to remain silent. And she succeeds, mostly.

Kuwabara stares at Yukina adoringly. She is so pretty, with her light blue hair and icy-blue kimono. Her smile lights up the darkest of days and just being around her makes Kuwabara feel as if he is on top of the world. Vanessa stares at her Inuyasha adoringly as well. Inuyasha has always been her favorite anime character. Just how Malia had gotten him here was a complete and total mystery but she isn't going to worry about that now. No, no--she is going to enjoy the moment. At least until someone comes to interrupt.

Outside the door Malia, Nissi, and Olivia listen, stifling their laughs as they do so. They see a flash of red hair before Kurama stands before them, cocking an eyebrow in interest. The three of them cast innocent looks his way; he smiles back at them. It's his smile that says "tell me what you're doing." Sadly, they shake their heads "no." It would be terrible if their prank is diminished before they have had their fun. Nissi's mind wanders to what Meagan is thinking at the moment. It must be hard to be strapped to a cieling watching her friends make out. But...that's just how the mind of Nissi works.

"Nissi..."

Kurama holds out his hand to her. She takes it and he pulls her off, but not before she mouths for Olivia and Malia to guard the door a bit longer before releasing the illusion. Of course, there really is no reason to maintain their positions at the door. It's not even locked. Who would want to come out? Both Vanessa and Kuwabara are stuck in a room with their "dream dates." They are quite content at the moment.

"Hey."

Hiei frowns at Olivia. She waves and bounds over to his side until she remembers Nissi's command and goes bounding right back to the door. Hiei rolls his eyes at her actions, calling her a baka onna and moving off to find Kurama. He needs to have a word with him about all these pranks. They are going to become tiresome very quickly. And very repetetive. Hiei does not like repetetive. Only when he gets to continue killing people: that's the only type of repetetive he likes.

"Bye, Hiei!"

Malia waves at her short friend. Then she turns back to Olivia with a devilish look on her face, "When should I lift the illusion?"

"Mm...give them about ten more minutes. That should be enough."

So the two wait, hearing the kissing noises from inside the room. After about three minutes they get bored and play janken (rock-paper-scissors) until the set time has elapsed. Humming happily, Malia waves her hand and the air around them lifts as if an enormous pressure has just been taken off their shoulders. They do not here immediate screams so they assume that Vanessa and Kuwabara are still locked in a passionate embrace. Oh well--they can wait.

Nissi, in her room with Kurama, checks her watch. Time is up, she thinks, so I should have heard a scream. Kurama repeats the question he has been asking ever since he dragged her into this room, "What are you planning?"

"AAAAAH!"

"Y-YUKINA WHERE DID YOU GO, MY LOVE!"

Nissi smiles in satisfaction. Now for the second part of the plan. She scrambles out of Kurama's arms and back up to the room. Outside, Malia and Olivia are dying with silent laughter. Inside the room Vanessa backs into a wall, disgusted. She stares dumbstruck at Kuwabara until she sees a flash of movement from up above. And that is when she realizes, with the utmost horror, that this has all been a prank. For there, taped to the cieling, is Meagan. But the one thing that tells her that it was a prank is the sign taped next to Meagan that reads: I PLANNED IT ALL.

"MEAGAN!"

The sound of tape being ripped from flesh is not a pretty sound. No, no, not at all. But because of Meagan's undying strength she is not hurt one bit. Right now Meagan is more afraid of the undying fury of Vanessa. Her eyes are blazing and her teeth seem to be growing into fangs. Her nails are most definately gaining a few inches in length as she expands them to claws. A low growl escapes her lips as Meagan falls to the ground. Outside the door Nissi, Malia, and Olivia sit with one ear pressed against the wall, wincing every time they hear the whack! of Vanessa's claws hitting flesh.

They move promptly out of the way as Kuwabara scurries out, afraid he will be next. Then comes out Vanessa herself, dragging Meagan behind her. She is still bound in some tape--mostly just her wrists and her ankles and her mouth is still covered, preventing her from screaming bloody murder. Which is good for all the windows and eardrums in the house but not necessarily good for Meagan. The others--even Hiei--sticks their heads out of their rooms and watch the very beaten up Meagan get dragged by the very pissed off Vanessa. Yet another reason not to cross her at the moment.

Malia leans against her friends in an attempt to steady herself and her erratic heartbeat. Olivia clutches her hoarse throat, and Nissi whaps the two on the back. "Ah...revenge is sweet."

I was soo wanting to post the chapter that I almost forgot to add my ending credits. Pretend it's rolling along like the beginning of a Star Wars movie. Ahahaha--no, I'm kidding. But anyways, here you go...

To Meagan: The evil idea of sticking the two in the room and having Malia use her illusion powers against them.

To Nissi: The even more evil idea of sticking Meagan to the cieling and have her being discovered by Vanessa.

In case you haven't noticed, it's going to be revenge for a while. Except on Christmas and my birthday. Those will be peaceful. Ahh...
