Here's chapter 19 for you all. And as a bonus, I've deleted the First Intermission and put the character profiles for Brandon, Peter, May, Himeko, and Kaoru. I'm going to put up Barbara's profile next chapter, 'cause I'm not in the mood to do it right now. Lol

Brandon Miyamoto:

6 feet 3 inches. 210 lbs. Neck length dark brown hair. Facial features are a cross between Leon Kennedy from resident evil 4 and Miroku from Inuyasha. Wears blue jeans with assorted shirts most of the time, as well as dressing appropriately when the occasion calls for it. Was previously shortsighted but had laser eye surgery.

Peter Miyamoto:

5 feet 10 inches. 188 lbs. Blonde hair. Wears glasses from nearsightedness. Looks remarkably like Edward Elrich, without the pony tail. Wears similar clothing to Brandon, but for originality's sake wears a vest. Slightly overweight.

May Miyamoto:

5 feet 6 inches. 137 lbs. Shoulder-length blonde hair. Also wears glasses from nearsightedness. Facial features are similar to Victoria from Hellsing. Clothing usually matches her mood. Tends to wear skirts a lot.

Himeko Nakashima:

5 feet 5 inches. 122 lbs. Neck length black hair. Facial features are a cross between Rei from Sailor Moon and Motoko (lol she's sometimes mistaken as Motoko from afar). Usually wears t-shirts and jeans or capris. Used to walk around in bra or topless before Brandon and his siblings came. Is increasingly upset at the fact that she is one of the shortest people in Hinata House.

Kaoru Yamamoto:

5 feet 3 inches. 114 lbs. Short black hair, similar to what Shinobu had before she turned it red. Could be considered the spitting image of Shinobu at her age. Usually wears dresses or shirts with mini-skirts. Her crush on Brandon is becoming a topic at dinner, much to her dismay. Her potential in combat may know no limit….

I do not own Love Hina, nor do I claim to (I did, however, create the above characters. If Ken Akamatsu who owns the rights to Love Hina wants to use them, he's welcome to).

Chapter 19 BURLY BATTLE! Or Help Himeko!

After recovering over the night, the Hinata group, with Barbara, deliberated over how they were to go to the fortress where Himeko was being held.

Kitsune: …How about I distract them by flashing them?

Brandon: NO.

Peter: Haha.

Barbara (sidles up to Kitsune): Hmmm, can I see them right now?

Kitsune sweatdrops: Ehhh…not right now….

Just then, the door busts open, with Keitaro and Naru (who is at this point seven months pregnant) rushing in.

Brandon & Shinobu: Sempai!

All think: There they go again…

Naru: gasp gasp Keitaro…don't make me run…

Keitaro: Oops, sorry, hun…

Naru belts Keitaro into the stratosphere.

Naru: Sorry, NOTHING!

All: O.O

Naru sweatdrops: Eheh, sorry. We're here as transportation to the hidden base. We managed to find it by accident.

Kanako: …Okay. By the way, how did you find it?

Naru: Well, it's pretty simple. We were on a dig and found the entrance.

Keitaro crashes back through the roof.

Keitaro: owwwwwww…..

Brandon: Alright! Let's save Himeko!

Peter (thinking to himself): I couldn't forgive myself if anything happened to her…

Meanwhile, a few hours later, at an undisclosed location…

#37: So, are the preparations complete?

#184: Most are complete. However, we're missing a few critical items.

#2: What are they?

#184: Six things. Copper, scales of a monitor lizard, the claws of a freshly slain demon, a flawless diamond, and the blood of a noble warrior and his love.

Just then, a sinister voice materializes from thin air.

#1: The first two are so simple, we already have them. The diamond can easily be created by our scientists in a manner of hours, while the claws will take that amount of time to procure. The only problem is the blood, as none of us are noble. Hahaha. Well, possibly Barbara might work, but she hasn't reported back, and has most likely deserted us.

#2: (steps out of the shadows, revealing an early-thirties woman with brown hair in a tightsuit) That bitch…Very well, if we ever see her again, we'll kill her on sight. We have other psychics of her level, anyway.

#37: (reveals himself to be a seventy-year old man in a business suit) We've obtained a signal. Apparently, a cargo plane not on our registration list is four hours away.

#184: (steps out of the shadows to reveal an African-American around his forties) I'll send #200371 to take care of them.

#2: Please do so. You ARE the head of our special agent forces. Your subordinates, the ones you just mentioned? They'd better follow through. I heard that there is at least two skilled warriors who can slay demons with ease with them. One of them has even trained with a prototype lightsaber…

#37: A LIGHTSABER! But that's impossible! The materials to create one aren't even in existence, are they! And the laws of physics clearly oppose it!

#1: ENOUGH! There are many things that can be created that are based in fiction. All you need is a super-genius such as myself to do experiments that violate the laws of science and get lucky. As for the coming intruders, they may be of some use. Keep an eye on them.

#2, 37, and 184: Yes, sir.

The voice disappears, and a room is lighted next door that holds Himeko, suspended and unconscious, shackled in front of a great vat of a mysterious miasma.

#1: It's possible that they'll find out we're using you to revive an entity that will aid us in our goal to spread our influence throughout the galaxy, but by that time, it'll be too late. Hehehaha…

About three hours and fifty minutes later…

On the plane, Su and Sarah were goofing around as usual, May and Ema were chatting among themselves, Peter was tinkering with the prototype lightsaber (he managed to bring it with him in case of an emergency), Kitsune was…drunk, Kanako, Motoko, and Barbara were training, and Brandon, Shinobu, and Kaoru were talking with Keitaro and Naru about what to do, and more importantly, why these people were after Himeko.

Shinobu: …So, what you're saying is, these guys are going to use her for a ritual to revive some sort of entity.

Naru: Yeah, and according to the text around the region, it is very powerful and can grant any wish to the person or people who can subdue it.

Keitaro: Also, she is related to the head of the organization running the ritual, Kenneth Nakashima.

Peter: (looking up shocked) Kenneth Nakashima! He's one of the chairmen on our dad's board of supervisors!

Brandon: Crap! You're right, I can't believe I forgot! He was going somewhere about a year ago. Dad hasn't heard from him in some time. How is he related to Himeko? Her dad?

Keitaro: No…her adopted brother. He was born in France.

Brandon: Gah, not the French…

Shinobu: Why do you say that?

Peter: Hahah, no need to worry, Shinobu-san. It's just the American in us.

Naru smiles: Heh, I can see you two are starting to become very close.

Brandon and Shinobu blush bright red, with Shinobu stammering: W-w-W-WHAT!

Keitaro: C'mon, Shinobu. Even I can see it, and I'm usually dense on such matters.

Naru: You can thank me for clearing that up, haha.

A beeping goes off on the console, and Keitaro says: Guys, get ready, we're five minutes away from the base…

Everyone quiets down, and gets there game faces on. …well, except Su, who's still goofing around.

Su: Im'a gonna blow'em up!

Kaoru: Please, Su-chan, be careful. We don't want the plane to blow up!

Keitaro: Okay, we're starting our landing!

After landing and taking a bit of a walk, they arrive at the base of a volcano, with a sign pointing in.

Sarah: "Secret base is not in here"! Do they take us for idiots!

Everybody sweatdrops.

Keitaro: Like I said, this is as far as me and Naru can go. She's pregnant, so…

Brandon: No worries. We'll take it from here, Sempai.

So the Hinata gang, minus Keitaro and Naru, head into the base.

Sorry that this chapter is kind of short, but the next one will be worth it. Anyway, be sure to read and review. Until next time!
