This is a short chappie, not the best I could have done, but just to let you know that I didn't die LOL I'm getting back to my stories now that all the Holiday drama is over and my computer is fixed. I'm trying to finish Kurama's Holiday Horrors, and I'm working on a lot of updates for my other stories, so, hopefully, I'll start updating them pretty regular again. Thanks for being patient with me folks! And thanks for all the great reviews! Hope this chappie gets a couple just so I know if you're still with me...

I own nothing. Enjoy!

The crew arrived at the theater. It was their third choice, but, it would have to do. They had planned on going to the large cinema a few blocks from where they had eaten, but found that it was closed while they replaced some of their old equipment with newer gadgets. After that, they had tried a smaller one, not far from Kurama's school, but found it too crowded with the rest of the people that had found that same "Sorry, We're Closed" sign hanging on the door of the first one. They had settled on coming to this one, a tiny theater nestled between two large clothing stores in the mall. Not many people came here, Kurama had informed, because they didn't show the new movies, just whatever struck their fancy, basically.

The boys prayed it wasn't a chick-flick...

When they arrived, they saw a poster for "The Devil's Rejects." This brought a wave of relief to both of them. Even Touya wanted to see this one! He didn't know much about human films, but Shishi and Suzuka had become quite fond of a little something called LimeWire, and equally as fond of eBay. They had started watching human movies and listening to human music, so Touya was getting to know more about them as well. He'd seen "House of 1000 Corpses" and he loved Rob Zombie! He couldn't wait to see this one!

Botan and Yukina scampered off to the ticket window. As soon as they were out of ear-shot, the boys began talking.

"Thank God," Touya sighed. "I was afraid we were going to be stuck watching Steel Magnolias or something of the like."

"I feared something with Brad Pitt or Orlando Bloom," Kurama glanced over to the ticket booth and saw a stack of old movie posters behind the clerk. Right on top of the stack, was the poster for Troy. "Or worse still... Both..."

Touya cringed at the thought. There were few things in life that bothered a man worse than taking a girl on a date, buying her dinner, paying her admission to the movies, getting her whatever she wanted at the concession counter, and then watching her drool over some Hollywood pretty boy the whole time...

The girls came back and handed the boys their tickets, and Botan returned Kurama's change. For what reason, Touya had no clue. As soon as they got to the counter, he'd be shelling out that and then some. 5 bucks for a soda? Touya wondered how it must feel for the legendary bandit to be on the receiving end of a rip-off...

'And I thought demons were greedy. The last time I paid five dollars for a drink, it packed enough punch to give Chu a three-day hangover...' And people here found these prices reasonable. He would never understand these creatures...

Apparently, Yukina felt the same way about these prices. Botan had picked out her drink and a nice selection of candy, but Yukina had taken one look at the sign overhead that told the prices and suddenly, her face had dropped. She insisted that Touya didn't have to get her anything.

"Really, I'm fine. I'm still full from dinner." She really didn't want him to go to all that trouble on her account. She just couldn't ask him to spend all that money on her... Even if he said he didn't mind...

"Alright then." Touya walked up to the counter. When he returned a few minutes later, he was carrying two of everything he'd got. Two sodas, two boxes of Sno-Caps, two bags of skittles... "It might be a long movie," he said, handing her one of the sodas. "Just in case you change your mind." Her face lit up. He was so sweet!

Awwwwwwwwwww...

"Now are you sure you going to be ok with this movie? It's probably going to be a little scary," Touya said to her as they made their way to their seats.

"Yes, I saw the first one," Kurama said, backing up Touya in his attempts to warn Yukina. "It isn't likely that the sequel is going to be any less gruesome." He hoped she would be alright. It was just a movie after all. He knew that if Yukina had a nightmare, Kuwabara would be going ninja-hunting...

"What are you talking about?" Botan thought for a minute. "Oh! You thought we were going to see The Devil's Rejects didn't you?" she laughed.

"Aren't we?" Kurama asked. That was what was on the poster.

"Oh no! We'd never watch something like that! They changed the movie this afternoon, they just hadn't changed the poster yet."

"Then what are we going to see?" Touya asked, images of pretty boys running through his head and making him worry. Kurama was none-too-comforted by this news himself...

"The- Oh, never mind. It's starting. You'll see."

The screen began to show previews for the coming attractions. The boys began to dread what might be coming next. What had they gotten into?

Next chappie: Pray for the boys... They're going beyond Chick-Flick! And no. It's not going to be Troy if anyone was thinking that LOL Till then, let me know you're still reading!
