Chapter Nine

Meagan has healed from the wounds inflicted upon her by the ever violent Vanessa, making it the perfect time for Vanessa to inflict more pain upon her with another devious plot. Revenge is their game, all of theirs. Except Olivia. She's had too many pranks pulled on her to enjoy pulling them on others. She'll help but she won't create them. (a/n: Malia!) Yes, revenge is sweet. Vanessa never did figure out that it was Nissi's idea to tape Meagan to the cieling. And Meagan is still too shocked at the beating she just got to say anything.

But now, as it has been said, it is Meagan's turn to feel the sweet feeling that is Vanessa's terrifying revenge. An evil laugh echoes through the mansion; and mostly everyone ignores it. Everyone except Hiei. He is getting tired of this...Kurama is also getting tired of the pranks. Not because they are annoying, no--he just doesn't like the fact that the girls' house is being destroyed bit by bit by bit. Soon they will have nowhere to live, and Kurama is not dragging them to his house. Even if his mother is away on business trips a lot, she can still come back at any moment. And the last thing he wants is for her to come home to a bunch of psychotic girls.

Olivia scurries behind Vanessa with her hands clutching a very big bottle of shaving cream in her hands. The two enter the kitchen slyly, watching as Malia and Nissi link arms and pour a clear liquid into seven cups, completely ignoring the four red cups at the end. Bubble, bubble. Pulling from her pocket five circular little white and red pills, Vanessa crushes them into power and sprinkles them into four of the seven cups. Her three companions surpress their giggles, knowing that if they let them be heard the whole plot is over.

"Vanessa...what exactly do these pills do?" Malia sniffs at the cups from which a white puff of smoke is rising.

"Well, funny you should mention that."

Flashback

"Listen toddler. I need something that drains powers. Something good."

Koenma whimpers as he is threatened. When Vanessa had entered so unexpectedly he had been in teenage form and had the added advantage of height--only by a few inches but that was enough--but it was quickly taken away as Vanessa extended her claws to one foot in length, holding them up to the deities neck. He hated the fact that the items that drained power would probably be used for some ridiculous prank, but it was either that or his butt. So Koenma produced from his trusty assistant Botan four small pills, and explained how to work them.

"If I can ask, Vanessa--what are you planning?"

"Chaos."

"Fair enough."

Botan then went on to explain that she would have to miss the first Christmas with the Destinies. Her friends had roped her into spending Christmas with them, since she hasn't seen them in forever. Vanessa understood completely, telling her to go and spend it with her friends. Then she made her way back to the mansion to oversee the construction of the prank.

End Flashback

"So...Botan isn't coming for Christmas and the guys' energy will be drained?"

"And Meagan's."

"And Meagan's?"

"Of course. Can't have her teleporting. Now, what special occasion can it be so that they'll have to drink?"

"Mmm...sparkling cider reminds me of New Years," Olivia ponders, "but maybe to celebrate the day one of us met?"

"Perfect. Me and you, Olivia, since you were the last one to join the group."

"Yay!" Olivia hugs Vanessa. "Happy me meeting you Day!"

"Kanpaii!" (1)

Each of the girls grab a cup or two and walk out into the main room, shoving them at their friends. Meagan stares at her cup in surprise and inquires to the occasion. Vanessa fakes surprise, and Olivia looks hurt. "It's the day me and Vanessa met, duh." Meagan raises her eyebrows, trying to remember. The guys---even Hiei---on the other hand down their glasses in one, saying congratulations and things of that sort. Meagan raises her glass to her lips and takes a sip just as Kuwabara falls unconscious. She gazes at him instantly before she and the other boys pass out simultaneously. Step one: get the boys and Meagan drunk. Status: complete.

"WOOT!" Olivia and Nissi high-five.

"Come on," Vanessa puts her hands under Meagan's arms and heaves. "Help me get them ready."

"Ugh..."

Meagan sits up rubbing her sore, throbbing head. Spots dance in front of her eyes. Strangely, she is freezing cold. Even more so than usual. Then, she notices why. "AAAAH!" Her earsplitting scream travels through the bathroom and stays there, as outside the door Vanessa is welding the door shut with her fire balls and her companions are rolling on the floor laughing their butts off. Meagan stares at the walls of the bathroom, slowly backing up as she sees her fellow occupants of the room. Her screams lessen, then increase, then lessen again as Hiei wakes from his semi-coma and rushes up to her pushing his hand against her mouth. She blushes beet red and pushes him away.

Then he realizes why. A gasp escapes his lips and they both back away in stunned silence. Slowly, Kuwabara stirs and sits up, taking a minute to understand the situation. Immediately he is up pounding his fists furiously against the door. Jin and Touya open their eyes at the same time, grave looks etched into their normally smiling faces. It seems that they have actually been awake for a while but just chose to relax for a few moments before the chaos assumed. As Kuwabara finds that he cannot get anyones attention, his anger fires up. Ah, but before I explain what he does next, I should explain the clothing situation. You see--there are no clothes.

Yes, as part of Vanessa's devious plot she has removed all five of their clothes, replacing them with shaving cream. She actually sprayed clothes onto them. For Meagan it looks like she is wearing a white bikini and for the guys...well, it looks like white speedos. And while all of the boys are in quite good shape it is not as bad as it could be but still...speedos. (a/n: Shiver, shiver. Hahaha---can you imagine Hiei in a speedo?) Now, back to Kuwabara's reaction.

As I've said, Kuwabara becomes angry at the fact that no one is answering his poundings, so he stupidly says "I'm going to break it down!" and runs into the door. Smoosh. The front part of Kuwabara's speedo becomes a big, gloopy mess on the door. Meagan winces, covering her eyes.

"SPIRIT SWORD!"

Nothing happens. Kuwabara's eyes fix dumbly on his empty, sword free hand. Meagan cautiously moves her fingers a little, wondering why it hadn't worked. Hiei gave his usual "hn" of impatience, "Baka. Obviously they drained us of our powers."

"Oh, Hiei---you're sword is gone."

"Yes, onna. It is gone."

Meagan lowers her hands, only to place them back over her eyes as Kuwabara stupidly turns around, "Don't turn around! Don't turn around!"

"Huh?"

"Idiot!" Hiei turns his head away in disgust. "Look at your attire."

Kuwabara looks down, takes in the sight, and then promptly turns around as he lets out a stream of swear words. He grabs the roll of toilet paper off of the spinny holder thing and wraps it around his midsection. Then, as he looks for another roll to replace the one he has taken, he is hit with shocking revalation.

"They took everything out."

"What?"

And that is exactly what Vanessa did. She took all the extra things out of the bathroom save for that one roll of toilet paper and a bar of soap. She even made a job of taking out the bath curtain, much to Meagan's disappointment. If she just had the shower curtain, she could sit in the bath until the whole prank is over. Sadly...no, it won't work. Touya sighs, rubbing his forehead. This is his and Jin's first prank and he is not liking it at all.

And outside of the batrhoom, sitting in Vanessa's room...

"Oh my gosh, this is too good."

Munch, munch. Popcorn is tossed into the air and eaten by random mouthes as the four unaffected Destinies watch on Vanessa's fair sized television all the action that is happening in the bathroom at this very moment. They have classified it as a random horror movie because Kuwabara turned around and they saw...nothing really, but the thought that they could have seen something is very disturbing to them. So, as mentioned, they are watching the action. That means that somewhere in the bathroom there has to be a hidden camera. And there is. Everywhere. There are several different cameras that give several different angles and then all come together into Vanessa's television to look like a movie.

"Wow. Vanessa, I hope I never get you mad."

"I don't," Vanessa snickers. "I want to prank all of you. ALL OF YOU!"

And at this point Vanessa's mouth foams up like she's a rabid animal and proceeds to devour her fellow Destinies in one fell swoop. Ahahahaha, no. But the Destinies do notice the strange glint in her eyes and do not doubt that Vanessa will succeed in her goal. Shiver, shiver. But anyways, back to the bathroom scene.

"OH MY GOSH! VANESSA I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!"

Meagan shouts herself hoarse, much to Hiei's pleasure. Onna...when I get out of here you are going to get it. Minutes pass. And in those minutes no one speaks, and no one sits down. They just stand there as if there life depends on it. Presently though, someone has to go to the bathroom. And that person is Kuwabara. He voices his need aloud and at once four other voices sound,

"Hold it."

"But I can't!" Kuwabara stomps his foot in impatience.

"You'd better hold it, Kuwabara," Touya explains, "as the only toilet paper in the facility is the one you're wearing."

"I don't care! I have to go!"

Sighing and hoping to God that this ends without conflict, the others close their eyes and block their ears. Smiling in victory Kuwabara yanks the toilet seat up and prepares to...do his business. But Hiei gets fed up with his whining and walks quickly over to the toilet, closing it. His eyes are narrowed in anger. "Hold it."

Kuwabara recoils, "Yes, sir."

Tick, tock, tick, tock. Soon, Nissi grabs Vanessa's sleeve and tugs her out of the room, signaling to Malia and Olivia. While she speaks her plan to Vanessa, Olivia holds Vanessa's drink and Malia drops a familiar little pill into it. "Hold on, lemme down the rest of my drink." Olivia holds it out to her and she takes downs it quickly, following Nissi out into the hallway. "Wait Vanessa!"

With a quick look to Nissi, Malia presents to Vanessa a shirt. It has a picture of Inuyasha on it and the word "Sit" is above him. Vanessa squeals and rushes to change into it. Nissi cackles silently, dragging her to the hallway when she comes back.

"Why don't we go and check the progress in an above room?" Nissi asks, holding the door to the attic stairs open. "That way we might be able to hear better."

The two climb the stairs quickly until the old door of the attic comes into view. Nissi gestures for Vanessa to enter first...

...and that's when the second part of the chaos begins.

Whoosh! As Vanessa strides in quickly, her foot catches in a rope that flips her upside down (a/n: You know...like a trap. ) and drags her up to the cieling. The rope, which was connected to something, causes the floor to break open (a/n: I dunno how to explain this...) to reveal the bathroom scene. She dangles there for a second before she realizes her mistake of trusting Nissi. As she prepares to yell at her the floor opens up, catching her off guard. She is slowly lowered down into the bathroom and into the pit of crazy people. And Meagan and the boys are crazy at the moment. While they were sober when they woke up, they have forgotten everything that has happened to them for the moment. They are actually to crazed to care. And of course, shaving cream does begin to dissolve after a while. So while they may be to crazy to care, Vanessa sure isn't.

She feels a curious sensation, as if something is being pulled away from her. And something is: her shirt. It has caught on something.Yes the Inuyasha shirt she has just been given is made of very loose threads; threads that are being pulled away at this very instant. She finally reaches her stopping point, about two feet away from the floor, landing there with just her pants and a white training bra. Meagan and the boys look up, shocked. Then several forks fall from the attic, also attached to strings. And also a sign that says: EAT ME, I'M A TURKEY.

"Uh-oh..."

"Get the turkey!" Jin cries, grabbing a fork and cutting her down.

Whump. Vanessa hits the floor, instantly scrambling up and jumping inside the bathtub and ducking as low as she can go. But upstairs in the attic, as Nissi is sealing over the hole in the ground so that it is still transparent but solid enough that Vanessa can't break through it, she sees what Vanessa is trying to do and has prepared for it. "Malia! Did you fill the pipes?"

"YES!"

"Good..." Nissi makes her way to the water control panel, pressing the one for the shower.

Instantly, a rush of cold water comes flying out of the shower nozel, spraying Vanessa. But wait, it's too sticky to be water. It's...cold soda. Sprite. Vanessa shrieks as her white bra becomes see-through. She moans and tries to get out of the bath. Meagan quickly puts a stop to that plan with a call of "Let's go play in the bath!" which is replied with several shouts of "YAY!" Then, as five not properly clothed bodies press in around her, Vanessa must fight for her life...kind of. The Sprite dissolves what is left of the shaving cream. Vanessa closes her eyes.

Finally she is able to shove her way out of the mass of writhing bodies, only to go slipping on the one bar of soap and land face first right into the hole of the toilet. Stick. (a/n: Ahahaha!) One of Vanessa's brilliant plans has just backfired on her. Earlier she had but plastic wrap so tightly around the hold of the toilet that it was not visible to Kuwabara when he was going to use it. But then, Nissi added her own little ingrediant. Some kind of sticky substance that made the plastic wrap obviously stick to Vanessa's face. Her screams are muffled by the wrap, but stop right as Nissi decides to back up the toilet water and have it explode in Vanessa's face.

The look on Vanessa's face is priceless. Nissi drops to the icy floor in laughter. But she is interrupted as Kurama enters, looking sleepy. "Nissi? What happened?"

"You'll know if you look down there," Nissi points. "Did you just wake up?"

"Yes. Oh Nissi, not another prank."

"Kurama, where are the power tools?"

"What?"
"Power tools. Where are they?"

"The...shed, I think."

In the blink of an eye Nissi is gone, running down to the shed and getting the drill. Then she goes silently to the room next to the bathroom, which actually happens to be the one which Meagan pulled her prank in and consequently got taped to the cieling. Nissi drills a fair sized hole--not too big, not too small--right next to the bath. Then she pokes a string through. Hiei notices it first, and points it out to Jin who begins pulling onto it. After the first minute of it not being completely pulled through, Touya, Meagan, and Kuwabara tune into the string pulling. Finally they reach the end, to which a piece of paper is attached.

A great way to string up a turkey.

o.0 "Get the turkey!" Jin cries again, slipping and sliding to get out of the bathroom. When Vanessa hears the wild war cries of her friends, she stops trying to pull the plastic wrap off of her and tries to transform into something that can fly. But she can't. Furious, she looks up to see Malia and Olivia sitting on the ice and watching. Olivia holds up her cup and a tiny pill, mouthing "haha" to her friend. How did she get that? Vanessa's mind spins. Let's go to a flashback, shall we?

Flashback; In Makai

Makai. Home of millions of demons. Of Hiei and Kurama. And possibly of Olivia and herself. Nissi wanders through the dirty, run down streets looking for a shop to accomadate what she wants. She gets several curious, suspicious stares that only encourage her to pull her hood farther down to hide her face. Nissi is here alone. Despite the fact that Kurama and the others have said that it is not good to go to Makai unaccompanied Nissi chose to go alone anyway. She couldn't get what she wanted if she came with someone else. A shop in the same shape as the streets comes into view; Nissi runs for it. There is no door, prompting Nissi to go in quicker. An ugly demon chewing on a cigar sits at the counter.

"I hear you can mix any two animals together," she says in a low voice to the demon. He regards her coldly.

"Just about."

"How about these two," Nissi questions as she pulls out a rat and a jellyfish.

"Crossing human animals cost a lot more than Makai animals."

"I also need some of those white pills that drain powers. Got any?"

"Yeah I got 'em. But didn't you hear me lady? They cost a fortune."

"Is your life enough?" Nissi demands, pushing back her hood.

The demon, who is purple, turns pure white and remains that way even after Nissi pulls her hood back up. "Yes."

"Good. You've heard of me. Now listen, I want the mixing done in two minutes. If you do it right and give me the pills, you'll never hear from me again. Got it?"

"Y-yes."

"Two minutes."

The man does it in one, handing Nissi her new animal in a cage. Also a little bag of white pills. But the animal is for another story, so I'll leave that off. Smiling a wicked smile that can scare off even the strongest of demons, Nissi goes back home.

End Flashback

Jin and Touya grab Vanessa's arms, holding her down. Kuwabara and Hiei hold the string, wrapping it around Vanessa so that it doesn't hurt her but ties her up. And Meagan takes the toilet paper that had fallen from Kuwabara's waist several minutes ago, stuffing it in her mouth, gagging her. o.0 Then, they stand on top of her to tie her to the large icicle that Nissi had created for them to tie her to when she was icing the floor. Kuwabara stands as the base, Jin on top of him, Touya on top of Jin, Meagan on top of Touya, and Hiei on Meagan, tieing the rope around the icicle then hopping to the floor. The others jump off too, surrounding Vanessa. But then, out of nowhere, sticks are thrown at them.

"OW!"

Nissi has just fazed in a spot that cannot be seen by the numerous cameras and tossed the sticks, "Look! She's a pinata!"

"CANDY!"

"NOOOOOOO!"

Vanessa is ultimately whacked to death--well, not really but you know what I mean--with the sticks. Olivia, Malia, Kurama, and the newely awoken Yusuke watch from above, amusing smiles on their faces. But then, slowly they stop hitting her. It seems that they are pulling themselves out of their "crazy coma." On Meagan's face is a look of absolute horror as she stares at Hiei then looks away.

"Oh. My. Gosh. What have we done?"

No one can answer. So they continue whacking Vanessa with sticks. And amongst her cries of pain and the boy's cries of outrage, Meagan hears a softer voice calling her name. "What was that?"

"What was what?" Touya asks, pausing in his whacking.

"That voice."

"I didn't hear anything," Kuwabara comments.

"Meagan..." the voice whispers.

"There it is again! Be quiet so I can find it's source!"

The voice calls again and again and again until Meagan finally realizes that it's coming from the hole in the wall. Meagan presses her eye against it and sees Nissi. "Eunice! Get me out of here!"

"In just...ten minutes, okay?"

"Why not now?"

"Because you have to complete Vanessa's torture."

Nissi shoves several things of makeup (lipstick, eyeliner, mascara, powder, etc.) through the hole. Meagan looks at it quizically.

"What's this for?"

"Vanessa."

"But Vanessa doesn't like makeup."

"I know, but she really doesn't have any say in the matter at the moment now does she."

"Oooh, I get it."

She tosses one of the makeup parts to each of the boys, keeping two or three for herself. Hiei smirks, reverting back to his old self. His smirk clearly gives away his pleasure. "This is going to be fun."

"Noo..." Vanessa whispers. "Please!"

"Yes."

"NOOO!"

And like a clown, Vanessa is painted up. Thanks to the clever artistry of Hiei, she looks like a pale ghost. Her lips are bright red, like Gwen Stefani's, and her eyelashes are so dark it's scary. A thin layer of mascara is penciled out under her eyes. It's very light though, almost unseeable. Vanessa trails her eyes upwards and sees Yusuke's laughing face. Kurama is whacking him rythmatically on the back, hoping that he doesn't choke to death. Actually, he is whacking all three of them. Olivia and Malia are in the same shape as Yusuke, maybe even worse.

I wish I hadn't welded the door shut...Vanessa cries mentally. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Then, miraculously, the door is broken down to reveal a grinning Nissi. The boys give a whoop of happiness and run past her to their rooms, savoring the sweetness that is being released from their prison. Needless to say, they will be staying away from that bathroom for a while. Meagan stands in place, staring up at the still hanging Vanessa before waving goodbye and stalking out.

"NO! Don't leave me!" Vanessa tries hard to break free from her prison but is unable to do so. And so, while Meagan and Nissi walk out and the four from above laugh and point exitedly, Vanessa is left hanging with the plastic wrap still attached to her face and her shirt laying uselessly on the ground in a wet heap looking like a beat up pinata that wouldn't give out any candy.

"Hey...let's send this tape off," Nissi suggests. "Funniest home videos."

"YEAH!" Olivia and Malia agree wholeheartedly, but Meagan is a bit reluctant.

"I dunno..."

"Come on--who will be more embarassed? You or Vanessa?"

"Vanessa..."

"And we might win the prize."

"I know we'll win the prize," Olivia corrects.

"Alright," Meagan brightens. "Let's do it."

"Oh look, there's the mail truck..."


Done. I am done. Wow, that has got to be one of my longest chapters. And since I always write it out in Arial 10, then switch to Times New Roman 12...wow. Let's check how much it got longer! Ja ne! Oh wait...credits.

To Vanessa: The entire idea of sticking Meagan and the boys in the bathroom, the plastic wrap on the toilet paper, the pills, the drunkness, the shaving cream for clothes, the one bar of soap and roll of toilet paper, welding the door shut, and all else that has to do with meagan and not yourself.

To Nissi: Everything else, almost: sticky soda coming out of the shower, backing up the toilet, the sticks and pinata thing, the makeup, "eat me i'm a turkey" and the forks and lowering her, the shirt coming off, etc, etc. Whew.
