Disclaimer- I don't own Rurouni Kenshin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tokio: All right it's my turn!
Tokio looked around the room looking all the way from the frowning Soujiro to the happy Misao.
Tokio: Sanosuke!
Sano: What?
Tokio: Truth or Dare?
Sano: Truth
Sano didn't even hesitate to say that.
Tokio: Okay let's see...I know! Is it true that you think trains steal your souls?
Sano: Of course I don't, you would have to be an idiot to think that
Tokio: Oh
Sano: Pictures steal your souls, trains have ghosts on them!
Kaoru: Will you forget that! It's just a crazy rumor that someone made up
Sano: It's true, it's true I tell you!
Kaoru sighed
Kaoru: Who wants to see Sano's picture when we went on a train ride?
Misao: Oh I do, I do!!
Kaoru: Be right back
Kaoru got up and ran out of the room
Yahiko: What a picture
Kenshin: Sano sure was interesting in the picture I agree
There came a loud crash and a loud ouch before Kaoru ran back into the training hall with a photo album.
Kaoru: Now let's see
Everyone gathered around Kaoru as she began to flip through some pages
Kaoru: Ah here it is!
Kaoru pointed at a picture of Kaoru, Kenshin, Yahiko, and Sano together. Kaoru was sitting in a chair Yahiko standing by her left side, Kenshin was standing just behind Yahiko. All of them were smiling, then there was Sano. His hands were straight by his sides in fear, you could see drops of sweat on his forehead, he was standing so stiff and his face covered with such fear couldn't help but make everyone laugh. *Except for Saito, Aoshi, and Soujiro that is*
Kenshin: That is a day none of us will forget
Yahiko: He tried to get off the train and when he couldn't he was huddled in a ball rocking back and forth on his seat saying "we're all gonna die!"
Megumi: If only I had been there, oh well like they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words"
Soujiro wanted so bad to smile and laugh at the picture but he couldn't. It was a stupid but effective dare he had put himself in, but on the inside he was laughing.
Sano: Shut-up, it's my turn now
Everyone returned to where they once were and waited for Sano to pick his victim. Sano stared at everyone fore minute
Sano: Yeah, it's my turn!
Everyone looked at him
Aoshi: Yeah yeah just get on with it
Sano: Hey Missy, truth or dare?
Kaoru: Dare
Sano: I dare you to pay all my bills!
Kaoru: That's not a dare, and even if it were I wouldn't do it
Sano: To bad Missy
Kaoru: Iie
Sano: Do it
Kaoru: Iie I won't, so you'd better think of a dare that doesn't include someone paying your bills!
Kaoru glared at Sano while she said that. Sano gulped, the look on Kaoru's face scared him from top to bottom.
Sano: Okay then, I dare you to sing 'Whiskey Lullaby' with Kenshin
Sano smiled, he knew for a fact that Kaoru couldn't get out of this dare.
Kaoru: What?
Sano: You heard me
Sano sat back and Kaoru and Kenshin looked at each other blushing. No one had ever heard them sing before on their own or together and neither of the two had expected that this would come.
(A/N: Yes it's one of those stupid author notes that get on people's nerves but I just want to say that I know that in the 10th year of meji there was no such thing as the song whiskey lullaby, but the song just suits them so well! Ano back to the story!)
Kaoru: Crap
Tae: Come on Kaoru, you can do it
Tsubame: You can do it Miss Kaoru
Yahiko: Go Kenshin!
Both of them turned even deeper shades of red as they stood up. Kenshin hated Sano for making him do this, but at least he didn't have to sing alone and with Kaoru at that
Kaoru: 'Crap crap crap crap crap crap crap crap'
Everyone watched the two ready to see how poorly they did.
Kenshin: Are you ready Miss Kaoru?
Kaoru: Yeah, let's just get this over with
Katsu: Come on you two, you can do it!
Kaoru and Kenshin took a deep breath before Kenshin opened his mouth to sing the first part.
Kenshin: .........
Kaoru: Kenshin come on!
Kenshin: I forgot the words
Kaoru stepped on his foot and said
Kaoru: Well you'd better remember or else we'll never get this over with
Kenshin sighed he really did know it, but was in high hopes trying to get himself out of this
Kaoru: Kenshin sing!
Kaoru stepped on his foot as hard as she could and Kenshin cried in pain before he began
Kenshin: 'I'm going to get you for this Sano'
Kenshin: She put him out, like the burning of a midnight cigarette. She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin to forget. We watched him drink his pain away, a little at a time. But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind until tonight.
Kaoru joined in
Kaoru & Kenshin: He put that bottle to his head, and pulled the trigger. And finally drank away her memory, life is short but this time it was bigger then the strength he had to get up off his knees. We found him with his face down in the pillow, with a note that said 'I love her till I die.' And when we buried him underneath the willows, the angels sang a whiskey lullaby. La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Kenshin tuned out and Kaoru got the attention
Kaoru: The rumors flew, but nobody knew how much she blamed herself. For years and years, she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath. She finally drank we pain away, a little at a time. But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind until the night.
Kenshin joined in again and Kaoru blushed at all the smiling faces. 'They're laughing at me!' Kenshin and Kaoru both thought.
Kenshin & Kaoru: She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger. And finally drank away his memory. Life is short but this time it was bigger, than the strength she had to get up off her knees. We found her with her face down in the pillow, clinging to his picture for dear life. We laid her next time him beneath the willow, while the angels sang a whiskey lullaby. La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Kenshin and Kaoru finally finished their song.
Kaoru: All right you can go ahead and laugh now
Soujiro's hour was over so he smiled
Soujiro: It's hard to say actually
Yahiko: Yeah, we don't know whether to laugh or clap
Kenshin and Kaoru looked at them
Kenshin: And what does that mean
Kaoru: Yeah Little Yahiko what do you mean by that?
Yahiko: Don't call me little!
Aoshi: It's actually very simple Battousai
Kenshin: huh?
Saito: Battousai clearly skilled in swordsman ship but also obviously not skilled in singing
Kaoru and Kenshin looked at him, they still didn't understand. Saito rolled his eyes, he couldn't believe the two.
Saito: Battousai think it this way, the Raccoon can sing and you can't
Kaoru and Kenshin looked at each other before sitting back down
Tsubame: Good job
Katsu was laughing at Kenshin and Kaoru's cherry red faces
Saito pulled out a cigarette and lit it but Tokio took it and put it out
Saito: Hey!
Tokio: Have a drink instead
Saito glared at his wife before grabbing some sake. Tokio smiled and watched Saito drink it.
Saito: Give me some more
Tokio looked at him but like he said gave him some more sake
Saito: Raccoon
Kaoru: What?
Saito: Where the fox?
Sano: She got up, said she had something to do
Saito had three more cups of sake, Tokio smiled Saito was sure to get drunk any minute now.
Saito: Everyone I have an announcement!
Tokio snickered, it was fine when Saito was around her when he got drunk but otherwise...
Saito: I love pigs!
Everyone's eyes shrunk to little dots as Saito went on
Saito: Now one time where I was in a zoo! What's a zoo you ask I have no clue but a sign said zoo! Ano I walked into the zoo where I was surrounded by these things called penguins!!!!! I now live to find those penguins and learn more!
Saito then collapsed face down on the floor again, completely unconscious
Sano: Well that certainly was interesting
Kaoru looked around, Tokio dragged the unconscious drunken freak and leaned him against a wall just as Megumi re-entered the room.
Megumi: What happened here?
Megumi looked over at Saito
Tokio: Oh just ignore the penguin lover
Megumi: .....
Soujiro: Anyway it's your turn Kaoru
Kaoru: Okay Miss Megumi
Megumi: Yes?
Kaoru: Truth or Dare?
Megumi: Truth
Kaoru: 'Darn, guess I'll have to try it next time'
Kaoru: Okay, have you ever wished you were someone else?
Megumi: ...well Miss Kaoru, hasn't everyone at least once in their life?
Everyone looked at her
Megumi: Yes I have wished at least three times that I were someone else, and I'm not ashamed to say that
Everyone looked at her
Megumi: Well anyway now it's my turn
Aoshi: Yeah, okay
Megumi: Rooster, truth or dare
Sano: Dare
Megumi smiled evilly, he had fallen right into her trap. She knew all his strength and weaknesses
Megumi: I dare you to clean the entire dojo....on your own
Sano laughed
Sano: Gomen, fox but the dojo was cleaned by Kenshin
Megumi: Oh I do believe that he missed quite a few things
Everyone walked over to the doorway and turned to look down the hall
Kenshin: Oro
Kenshin's eyes went wide and his mouth fell open when he saw the dojo hallway
Tsubame: What happened here?
Megumi: I just did a little work
The hallways were filled with books and papers, each room everyone went into there was a huge mess.
Sano: What the heck?!
Kenshin: The laundry!
Outside was the once clean laundry line with all the nice clean clothes. Now everything was in the mud.
Kenshin nearly fainted
Megumi: Well get to work Rooster, you've got a lot to do
Sano grumbled and cursed under his breath as he got all the stuff. Everyone sat back and watched him run back and forth. Cleaning the floor, picking up all the books, re-washing the laundry and hanging it up for the wind to dry it. He washed the dirty dishes and picked up the trash, he sighed as he sat back.
Sano: Finally done
Sano sighed
Sano: Now I know what Yahiko has to go through with all the Missy's orders
Kaoru: What was that?
Sano: Hey come on Missy, let me in!
Everyone laughed as Sano banged on the door which Kaoru had closed and shut tight
Kaoru: It's getting late, why don't you all stay over and we can continue the game tomorrow.
Everyone agreed to that and Kenshin, Kaoru, and Yahiko set up the futons for everyone. Misao and Aoshi kept moving the still unconscious Saito around so he wouldn't get hit. Finally everything was set up and every one went to sleep, the only sound was the noise Sano was making from banging on the door.
Kaoru: Get in here
Kaoru opened the door and closed it again once Sano had come inside
Kaoru: You can spend the night like everyone else
Sano: Great where do I sleep?
Kaoru: On the floor, where else?
Sano: Why can't I sleep in a futon
Kaoru: Because they're all being used by everyone else
Sano: So what should I do?
Kaoru: I'll give you the steps Get down on the floor Shut-up and close your eyes Go to sleep Oh and here, have a pillow and blanket. Night
Sano: Night
Sano: 'Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me?'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gomen to all you Saito fans for making him sound like a freak, so ano did you like? Dislike? Tell me what you think, what should happen next!

Tokio: All right it's my turn!
