Something weird happened today. Elise wasn't there, but her non-existent twin brother Eric, AKA Elise was. Go figure.

"Elise, why are you dressed as a guy?" I asked when I saw her. "And what happened to your hair?!"

I looked at Elise; her hair cut short and her chest flat.

"I'm not Elise, I'm Eric!"

"...Oh. Tell me your plans for today then, Elise." I was not stupid, why was she trying to convince me that she was this 'Eric'? Stupid human... whoa, hanging around Vegeta too much! ^^;

"I will make Tasuki fall in love with me! Mwa ha ha!"

"And what will Vegeta think?"

"Vegeta will be happy! You're over him, right?" Trunks said, walking up to us.

"…No. Veggie-Chan is Elise's, I will not take him away." Elise said seriously.

"But you ARE Elise!"

"No, I am Eric."

"...Huh?" Trunks looked very confused.

"Never mind."

Youji walked up to us, "hey Elise...wait... why are you wearing guy's clothes?"

"...Elise always wears guy's clothes. I am Eric."

"Why are you talking in third person? And who's Eric?! I DON'T GET IT!"

"Are you all just stupid? I am Elise's twin brother. I am here for my one true love, Tasuki! Although, everyone loves me..."

"So you ARE Elise!" Trunks said proud of himself. So dense...

"NO!"

"...Huh?"

"Just stop thinking, you'll hurt yourself." 'Eric' said, shaking his/her head in shame.

"Okay... but I still don't get it!"

"Trunks, be quiet." I said, shaking my head. Is it possible to be that dense?

"Alrighty." Trunks shut up and sat there staring at Elise/Eric in confusion.

"Wait! El-Eric! Are you schizophrenic?" Youji asked, staring in confusion.

"No… TASUKI!!!!" Elise ran off after Tasuki.

"Um... Who're you?" Tasuki stared at ERIC (XP) in confusion. Confusion is the facial expression of that day, it seems.

Chichiri looked over, "Elise, no da!"

"I am Eric, no da!"

"You can't fool me, no da! Elise-Chan, no da!"

"That creepy girl?" Tasuki asked.

"No, I am her twin brother. Although, I must admit, she is rather creepy..." Eric sweat dropped.

"No, no, no, you are Elise, no da! It's obvious, no da!"

"YOU'RE WRONG, DAMMIT! NOW SHUT UP, NO DA!"

"Stop saying no da, no da. That is my saying, no da."

"No, no da."

"SHUT THE HELL UP, BOTH OF YA! Someone explain what's goin' on to me!" Tasuki sweat dropped.

"I am Eric, Elise's not so creepy twin brother. I am here to claim my one true love!"

"Who the hell is that?" Tasuki asked.

"You, of course!" Eric glomped on him.

"ACK!! Get it off! Helllp! No! Make it stop!" Tasuki shook Eric off.

Vegeta walked by and looked over.

"Insolent human!"

"VEGGIE-CHAN!!!" Elise/Eric ran over to him.

"Yes, insolent human?"

"I love you! Oh wait, I'm not Elise, I'm Eric..."

Tasuki ran off, claiming that he forgot him fast.

"Wow, he almost seemed sad." Youji said.

"He knows it's Elise, that's why." I said.

"...But, he HATES girls!" Trunks said.

"He's lying! Bakas." I sat down and watched the following scene.

"You're Elise. I am not stupid, unlike those humans over there." Vegeta pointed at Trunks, Youji and I.

"HALF HUMAN, DAMMIT!!"

"That half of you is ill bred, stupid boy."

"TASUKI!!! COME BAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!" Eric ran down the hall and glomped onto his legs.

Tasuki fell flat on his cute little face. She could have ruined it! Moron.

"ACCCCK! GO AWAY! Leave me alone! I like Chichiri, not you!"

"He likes me, no da!"

"But... but..." Elise turned on the waterworks, and Eric was magically crying his little eyes out.

"No, no, don't cry! Aw, shit! Chichiri, help?" Tasuki looked desperate.

"Elise is your problem, no da!" Chichiri disappeared.

"I'M ERIC, NO DA!!!"

"Damn you, Chichiri!" Tasuki said to no one, since Chichiri had made himself scarce.

"Why can't you love me?!"

"She sounds like Ravi," I pointed out.

"I DO NOT SOUND LIKE THAT PSYCHO!!!!!"

"Yes, yes you do."

"SHUT UP!!!"

Elise hugged Tasuki, "Tasuki! Carrie's being mean, no da!"

"I should care, why?"

"You should! You love me! Everyone loves me!"

"...Elise?" Tasuki looked at her/him.

"No! Eric! Me and Elise are so close, we think alike!"

"Uh huh. Get offa me! I hate girls!"

"You like Miaka!" I shouted.

"SHUT UP!" Tasuki Rekka Shinenend Elise, and she turned into a pile of ashes. Tasuki ran like hell.

Elise gathered herself back together and walked over to us. "I am so depressed. My one true love has rejected me."

I pointed over to Vegeta. "You know, before you go completely crazy like Ravi... what about Vegeta?"

"Veggie-Chan!!" Elise ran over again. "I love you!"

"Aren't you Eric?" Vegeta said, cocky and sarcastic. *Drool ^^*

"Um... Right, right!"

"Stupid human, can't even keep up her own disguise."

"But you love me anyway, right?"

"No."

"You have to love me! Everyone loves me! Youji loves me, Inu Yasha loves me, Wu Fei loves me - he proved it by touching my hand! Such a nice gentle touch too... oh wait! - You love me, Tasuki loves me, and Chichiri loves me, hell, all the Suzaku Seishi love me and even Trunks loves me!"

"I. DO. NOT. LOVE. YOU!! I LOVE HER!" Trunks pointed to me.

Everyone in the hallway froze. I looked over at him. "You... Love... Me?"

"GAH!! I... I... I..." Trunks stammered, looking for the right words.

"You know, say you don't mean it, and you're as good as dead." Elise whispered.

"... GAH!!!"

Everyone had surrounded the hallway. I mean everyone! People I didn't even know went to the school were there! People I had never seen in my life… They were there! Vegeta looked on, smug. Chichiri and Tasuki had returned.

"You came back, Tasuki?" Elise had stars in her eyes.

"No. No. No. He made me come!" Tasuki pointed to Chichiri.

"He's lying no da! Truth is, Tasuki likes soap operas, no da! And this sure looks like a soap opera, no da!"

"SHADDUP!!!!"

"So Trunks, what did you say?" Youji asked, leaning against the lockers. Elise stared at him, "...gaaaah..." was all that was heard from her for the next few minutes.

"Um... Um... uh... I... Um..."

"You gonna say it?" Vegeta said, floating above everyone so he could see. I could swear he was grumbling about being short in there, but oh well. *Shrug*

"It was um… a slip... of the... tongue?" Trunks looked hopeless.

"EHHHHHH!!! Wrong answer, my friend!" Elise said, trying not to laugh.

"He is so dead," Ravi mumbled into his bandages, which covered every part of his body.

"Trunks is lying!" Bulma said, waltzing in on the scene and pushing her way through everyone. "And Vegeta, get down from there!"

"Hai." Vegeta floated back down to the ground and stood beside her.

"MOM!?" Trunks looked on in shock.

"Trunks, how can you lie like that in front of everyone? Just admit it!"

"Admit what? There's nothing to admit!" Trunks was blushing. So cute when he blushes, too. *Sigh*

"Sure there is! I've read your diary!"

Everyone in the hallway did that little "oooooh" thing that people do. You know the one.

"My son keeps a diary? What kind of a man are you?"

"It's a journal, not a diary. A. Journal."

"...Foolish boy. Human onna are prone to snoop, you should have learned that by now."

"Shut up, Vegeta." Bulma glared.

"Gomen," he apologized. "So, what did it say?" Vegeta turned towards Bulma.

She whispered something in his ear, but no one could make any of it out.

"MY SON WROTE THAT?!"

"And there's more!" Bulma said, winking.

"Oh my." Vegeta looked down, his eyes filled with shock and his face pale. I wonder what it was. Hmmm…

"Mom! Don't go telling everyone!"

"Oh, I won't." Bulma grinned, "now, are you just going to say it or what?"

"Say WHAT?! There's nothing to say!"

"Sure there is!" Youji spoke up.

"SHUT UP! No one asked you!" There was fire in Trunks eyes. Not good.

"... Shutting up now." Youji sat down on the floor and stayed out of it for the rest of it… sorta.

"Isn't he an insensitive jerk, Tasuki?" Elise was clinging to Tasuki's right arm. Tasuki sweat dropped.

"Can ya just leave me alone? Please?"

"HE'S SO INSENSITIVE!!" Nuriko said, coming up beside them, "oh, hey Elise!"

"Shut up, I'm Eric today!" Elise said.

"I'm so happy! You took my tips!" Nuriko hugged her/him/whatever it is.... Elise just smiled and hugged back.

"He's just so mean, I just don't see how she can go out with him! It's obvious to everyone that he loves her..."

"SHUT UP!!!" A ki blast was shot at Elise, and Elise turned very crispy.

"Itai!" She said, and that was the end of her for a little bit.

I looked at Trunks sadly, but before I could say something, Aoi walked by. "The moon will be blue tonight! Perfect for a séance!"

Everyone sweat-dropped.

"What? Am I ruining something? Ooo! A scene! What's going on! Someone fill me in! I could sell this on the web!" Aoi took a seat front row center and pulled out his digital camera.

Everyone looked away from Aoi and went back to the scene.

"Why won't you just say it?" I sniffled.

Trunks turned around quickly. "Please don't tell me she's gonna cry, I don't want her to cry..."

"She's gonna cry! All right! This'll make great material for my website!" Aoi grinned.

"TURN THAT GOD DAMNED THING OFF!!" Trunks kicked the camera and it smashed into a million pieces.

"NOOOOOOOOO! That was my money making scheme! Humph!" Aoi walked off, licking his knife.

"What the fuck? Is everyone at this school fuckin' psycho?" Tasuki walked away, he had had enough of the craziness.

"No, no da! It's just getting good, no da! She's gonna run off crying soon and then he's gonna feel really guilty and he'll admit it no da!" Chichiri was really close. Except for the admitting part.

"THERE ISN'T ANYTHING TO ADMIT!!! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU PEOPLE THIS BEFORE YOU GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULLS?! AYE!!!"

"Um... Trunks..." Elise said, finally back from the state of crispiness.

"WHAT?!"

"Um... you might wanna go after Carrie..." Elise pointed behind him.

"What? Oh fuck... THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!"

"MY fault?!" Elise said, looking innocent.

"If you hadn't said you love everybody, I wouldn't have said what I said and she wouldn't have gotten mad at me and she wouldn't have run off crying and now she hates me and oh my god, I am a horrible person!"

"...What did he just say?" Youji asked, getting lost.

"He basically said that it's... that person's fault... that he's an insensitive asshole!" Ravi said, but he was unsure on if it was Elise or her twin brother/split personality Eric.

"I DIDN'T SAY I LOVE EVERYBODY, I SAID THEY ALL LOVE ME, EVEN YOU!!"

"But I don't, I love... AHHHHHHHHH!!!! This is a trick isn't it?!"

"...No..." Elise backed away, expecting to be kicked into Low Earth Orbit. She then turned off the tape recorder. She had all the evidence she needed anyway.

"Ooooo! He almost admitted it! He's getting closer!" Bulma beamed.

"Oh." Vegeta shrugged, "human problems bore me. But, stupid boy, do you not understand how women work? Baka."

"SHUT UP!!"

"Aww! Vegeta, look! Our son is in love! How cute!"

"Yes. Cute. That's what it is. He is weak. Hey Trunks, if I can admit it, so can you. Bulma, I love you."

"About time you said it, you baka." Bulma's smile was a mile wide. Trës kawaii!

Elise's heart then broke into a million little pieces.

"Elise will be so sad," Eric sobbed.

"Shut up, ELISE." Vegeta glared at her.

"I'm not... WAAAAAH!!"

"Oh no, we have another crier on our hands, no da!"

"I love you, Elise!" Youji smiled.

"I know! Everyone loves me!"

Youji banged his head on the lockers. "I tried, dammit."

"So, are you going to say it, or not?" Vegeta asked, staring at Trunks intently.

"FOR THE LAST MUTHAFUCKIN' TIME THERE IS GODDAMN NOTHING TO FUCKING SAY!!!!!"

"I think he's a little pissed." Elise said.

"Observant aren't we? I mean, whatever gave you THAT idea?" Youji muttered.

"The little birdie told me!" Elise grinned.

"BE FUCKING QUIET, YOU ANNOYING LITTLE BITCH!! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!!" Trunks shot another ki blast at Elise.

"You know, I fear for my life, no da. I'm going now, no da!" Chichiri disappeared.

"About fucking time he left. Now can the rest of you leave as well?!" Trunks got ready to blast, and everyone who shouldn't have been there (i.e.: everyone except Elise, Veggie, Bulma, and Youji) left the scene as fast as their legs could take them, which was, amazingly quick. Elise would have run if she wasn't very black and ash filled.

"You know, son, maybe you should go talk to her..." Bulma said quietly. "And if I hear you use that language again, I'm going to have to punish you very severely."

"Sorry, mom." Trunks sighed and wandered off.

I wasn't there for the rest of the day, so I don't know what happened, however, Elise can take over from here... more on this tomorrow, I guess. I'm gonna go cry now. ;_;
