I walked to school today with Gohan and Goten. Well, no, not really with Goten as he was trailing behind us.

"Shouldn't we wait for your brother?" I asked, halfway to school.

"Eh, he'll catch up," Gohan said and continued walking.

"You don't understand. If Elise bumps into him, he's doomed. The things that could happen... I shudder to think..."

We walked past Elise's house right then, Eric popped his head out, "hey guys! Wait up, I'll be there in a minute!" He smiled.

I grabbed Gohan's arm and dragged him away, "keep walking. Just keep walking."

Two minutes later...

"GUYS! I TOLD YOU TO WAIT!!"

"Oh look, IT caught up." I grumbled.

"It?" Gohan looked confused.

"Never mind..." I turned around and almost face faulted with shock.

Eric was wearing a red mini skirt with a white tank top. His hair had little bows in it and was done in cute (or not so cute, depending on whom you asked) little pigtails. He was wearing lip-gloss, eyeliner, mascara, blush, and bright red nail polish.

"Hiya Gohan!"

"...Um... hi Erica."

"Eric, why are you wearing THAT?" I asked.

"What's wrong with a girl wearing a miniskirt?" Gohan looked at me, oblivious.

I snickered. Elise, who had just joined us, burst out laughing.

"What? Why am I being laughed at? WHAT?!"

"Nothing!" I smiled.

"GOHAN! I'M GONNA TELL MOM ON YOU!!" Goten yelled, catching up.

Elise turned around and smiled wide. "Goten!"

"Oh no... Goten! RUN!" I called, motioning for him to turn around and go home.

"Huh?" Goten looked up to see Elise launch herself at him, "you're so cute!" She said, hugging him.

"EWWWW! Someone likes It!" Gohan looked disgusted, waving his arms.

"You're so cute when you wave your arms," Eric sighed happily.

Gohan looked nervous.

We finally got to school, to see a frantic Aoi running towards us.

"HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII EVERYBODY!! Guess what today is! No, not another field trip, but, yep! COMMUNITY SERVICE DAY!!! Everyone, into the buses!"

Suddenly, the lights went out, and there was a light blue spotlight in the middle of the hall.

"Everybody nice, everybody nice..." Duo stood in the middle singing.

Red and green spotlights went behind him, and we saw dancers and background singers.

"Everybody chance, everybody chance..." They joined in.

"CARRY ON!" The song and dance ended and we all stared on, dumbfounded as they walked away.

"That was the weirdest thing I have ever seen," Aoi then looked very sad, "WHY DIDN'T I TAPE IT?"

Youji grinned, holding up his video camera, "I did!"

"Ooo, let's talk business! Can I have it to sell on eBay and make lots of money so we can get rich! I'll give you some of the profits!" Aoi nodded frantically.

"Uh... Sure," Youji tossed him the tape.

"YAY! I have to go visit my fiberglass moose now! He's hungry!" Aoi walked off, singing the Duo song.

We sweatdropped, but did as we were told and got onto the school buses.

"Wait... They want us to volunteer?" Elise asked.

"Uh huh," I replied.

"You mean, like work? Without pay?" Elise looked scared.

"Uh huh," I said, ignoring her.

"Work? Me? No wonder Sonya skipped today!"

I sat down beside Trunks and across the aisle from Gohan. Eric was sitting beside him, clinging to him.

"What if the bus crashes and we all die and I'M SO SCARED!!! Hold me!" Eric whined in a voice that was far too feminine - even for him.

"Um... it'll be okay." Gohan patted his shoulder. "Maybe it'd be better if you didn't worry so much..."

"I'm sorry! You must hate me now!" Eric cried.

"I don't hate you!"

Eric cried onto Gohan's shoulder.

"Don't cry, don't cry!" Gohan looked scared. I think he was seriously contemplating Eric's sanity. As we all were.

Tasuki got on the bus; he was the supervisor for the bus. Eric looked up and screamed like a little girl.

"ERIC?!" Tasuki looked shocked. Then he started to dance with joy. "FREEDOM! YES! YES! YES! YAAAAAAY! I'M FREE! FINALLY!! FREEDOM! FREEDOM!"

Eric launched himself at Tasuki, "I LOVE YOU!!"

"NOOOOOOOOO!!!" Tasuki screamed in pure agony. Poor thing.

"Is that her boyfriend?" Gohan looked over at us.

Elise snickered.

"You mean HIS boyfriend," Trunks snickered.

"...What?" Gohan looked frightened.

"Yep, Eric is a guy. Elise's twin BROTHER."

"Brother? My Kami, it was bad enough when I thought she...he was a girl!"

Poor thing. He was traumatized.

Eric would have been hurt, had he not been clinging to Tasuki and proclaiming his love for him.

Youji was working on the latest death diagrams, glaring over at Goten every so often.

"More, I see?" I said, looking at them.

"Eh, they're fun." Youji smiled.

Then I looked at Trunks... he was doing the same thing, only with Gohan. "Trunks!"

"Um... gomen!" He put them away and looked innocent.

"Wow! The bus is moving!" Goten pointed excitedly.

Elise hugged him, "he's so cute! And the hair! It's so cute!"

The bus came to a stop in front of the hospital, we all got out and stood around.

"Uh... now what?" Youji asked.

"Get in there, guys! VOLUNTEER! SHOW 'EM WHAT YOU'RE MADE OF!!" Aoi hustled us all into the hospital.

"What... we're.... made... of?!" Trunks looked at Aoi, scared.

"Yep! 75% water!" Aoi grinned.

"...Oh." Trunks kept walking.

Elise promptly sat down in a corner and stayed there. She wouldn't do anything. Youji joined her, so did Goten. Although Goten didn't join her by choice - she grabbed his arm and forced him to sit down.

Gohan, Trunks, Eric, and I went off to wander the halls.

I looked in a hospital room and saw a patient who was obviously in very bad shape. "Poor thing!" I cried and went in.

He wasn't there very long. Goku ran in, "Ooh! Early, early late breakfast!" The patient disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Goku rubbed his stomach. "Tastes like chicken!"

We all stared at Goku like he was the world's biggest idiot. Oh wait, he is.

"Anyway... Let's keep moving..." Trunks said, and ushered us out.

"HEY GOKU! LOOK! It's early late breakfast!" I threw Eric at him.

Eric screamed like a little girl. However, Tasuki, who was walking by, happened to get in the way and Eric crashed into him.

"My hero!" Eric giggled with glee and glomped Tasuki.

"OH GOD! GET IT OFF!! HELP!!"

Goku snuck up behind Tasuki and started eating the Tessen.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Tasuki looked at him, glaring evilly.

"Early late breakfast! Early late breakfast! Need food! Early late breakfast!" Goku pointed at the Tessen.

"EAT ERIC, NOT THE TESSEN! ERIC!" With that, Eric was thrown at Goku. No one saved him.

Tasuki pulled out the Tessen, "and for trying to eat my Tessen... REKKA SHINEN!" They both got burnt.

We followed a screaming Goku, "I'M ON FIRE! I'M ON FIRE! HEEEELLLP!"

Elise sat in the corner, laughing her ass off. "That's classical! He's on fire! That's hilarious! Are you taping it?"

"Um... aren't you volunteers supposed to be helping?" A nurse person asked her.

"Look at it! It's great entertainment! Don't you have eyes? Come on! And to top it off, it's GOKU!"

"OW! THE PAIN! MY FLESH IS BURNING RIGHT OFF MY BONES! OW! MAKE IT STOP!!" Goku screamed.

Elise laughed harder.

"Youji, did you get that?" Aoi whispered, nudging him.

"Uh huh," Youji nodded.

"Great! Let's go! We can sell it on eBay!" Aoi beamed, and set off; skipping down the hall while singing "we're off to see the wizard! The wonderful wizard of... I forgot the words!"

"OWWWWWW! PAIN!!! MY FLESH! SAVE ME! TUXEDO KAMEN! HEEEELLLP!"

Tuxedo Kamen showed up and threw a rose. "Fire is bad, it causes pain, we do not need pain, it is evil and wrong. We do not need fire, it burns and causes flesh to rot away and fall to the ground in a charred mess which is bad because it is not good and that is bad so please stop the burning." Then he disappeared. That did not stop the fire.

"MY SKIN! IT'S TURNING TO ASHES! OWWWW!! THIS IS TORTURE!! OW! MY FLESH! My charred flesh! The pain!"

We shrugged and left. Obviously, the fire wouldn't go out any time soon.

Elise was in hysterics, her eyes were watering and she couldn't stop laughing no matter what.

"That mental picture will stay with me forever," she giggled, "this is classic."

"Told ya it wouldn't be so bad," I smiled.

"Yea... Volunteering was fun today. Let's go home now."

We nodded and left, Elise still laughing her ass off at the thought of Goku's flesh rotting, melting and charring from his bones.
