Rouge Angel

By Chikara-Yuy

I am glad you guys liked the last chapter.

And I hope you enjoy this one as much!

Kari looked around this was way different she didn't ever get much cause she was taught that she didn't need much except the basic necessities.

Quatre, Trowa and Heero were sneaking off, as her attention was diverted Wufei and Duo behind them.

But as we women all do, Kari had eyes in the back of her head and turned to them.

Quatre saw this and ran, with trowa and Heero on his tail. But Duo and Wufei weren't as lucky,

Kari had grabbed Duo by his braid and Wufei by his collar, jerking both boys almost off their feet.

"Nooooooooo! Caught by the system! You'll never take me alive never!" Cried Duo as he struggled to get out of his sister's amazon grip.

"This is injustice woman, have you not heard the song by Toby Keith wanna talk about me! Come one Nooo!"

Bellowed Wufei.

"Wufei shut up don't nobody wanna talk about you! And Duo if you don't stop wiggling around like a little worm I'm gonna put you on a hook and feed you to the fishies!"

"What? What fish would eat me?" replied Duo.

"I trust you have heard of the Amazon River in South America?"

Duo nods.

"I'm a Parana they live in the amazon." Said Duo snapping at her hand.

Then realizes what she meant

"Oh those little fishes."

"Yeah, good boy."

Kari notices the people who have stopped to stare at them.

"What people got an eye problem? Keep it moving, keep it moving."

The people then shook their heads and continued walking.

Kari then sighed. "Okay let's get this over with."

Duo spots the hot topic store and heads in that direction. Kari again grabs him by his braid.

"Tempting but no maybe later."

Duo began to whine.

"Just think about what Quatre would do."

Duo thinks on it and remembers the carving knife sticking out of the table only now it was sticking out of his heart. "NOOOOO!"

Wufei clamps his hand over the braided one's mouth.

"Shut up now." Growled the Chinese boy.

Kari then saw a store called sweet'n things. The name made her wince, but she walked to the store Wufei and Duo behind her.

Duo through the entrance and let out a blood curdling scream "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I'm blind ahh noo!"

Kari turns to him "What's wrong Duo?"

"It's too bright!"

"Put on your sunglasses."

Duo puts on glasses as told. "I CAN SEE IT'S A MIRACLE!"

Kari rolls her eyes again.

A perky brunette skipped over to them. "HI! How are you? Isn't it a great day! Oh I love your outfit!"

Kari stares at her and thinks 'lord I've done died and gone too hell.' Says "Thanks."

"I got a great selection to show you!" cries the brunette; Kari managed to read her name on the nametag, Brittany. (No offence if this is your name!) the brunette practically dragged them over to a stand of frilly dresses.

"Okay now honey, now you look like spring and I know your looking for a prom dress. So I got just the thing for you." Pulls out a bright and vibrant daisy yellow dress holds it up against her. "Cute but not your color."

Kari was about to reply when the girl pulled out a bright and carnation pink prom dress. "Oh, now this, this is for you."

Kari looked at her like she was crazy. "You have got to be kidding me." She mumbled.

"Would you give it a rest already?"

Brittany blinks at her "What?"

"Just leave me alone, I can find something myself thank you."

"But now I gotta help you, I gotta become employee of the month!" the girl whined in a high pitched voice.

"If you don't leave me alone I will certainly make you."

"Honey I'm a freaking cheerleader, I can do flips around your butt in a minute." Retorted Brittany all peppiness gone from her voice.

"Uh, huh I bet you could." retorted Kari sarcastically.

Kari, Duo and Wufei head to the door and almost make it out when Brittany stopped them by grabbing Kari's shoulder.

"Now wait just a minute-"

Wham!

Kari shook her hand and looked down at the unconscious pain in the butt. Then she and the boys walked out.

Seeing a store across from them they headed in that direction.

Praying for a little sanity in this one.

Now the people in this store had seen the whole thing and were planning to stay out of this customer's way.

Kari begins to look around by herself. Duo and Wufei just take a seat on a bench outside the store.

One store helper walks over to her. "Hi if you need any help just let me know okay?"

This was said to her as she had been walking over to someone else.

Kari was impressed well at least they didn't run over to people like maniacs. After a few minutes Kari had no idea what she was doing.

So what's the logical course of action? Ask for help.

One of the assistants asked what color she would prefer and what the occasion was.

"Some fall or winter colors, and it's a formal party."

The clerk smiled at her. "I think we have some things you might like."

He walks to a corner of the store and shuffled through some dresses.

He pulled out a dark and light purple dress and held it in front of her, he shook his head and put it back. He went through all sorts of different dresses and took about four hours and Kari agreed with him on most of them. They had so far, been red, dark purple, black, Dark blue, dark red, green, and dark golden colored dresses.

Kari rolled her head around popping her neck. She then told the clerk that it was a valentine's ball.

He smiled then "I know just the dress!" he said.

He went to an entirely different part of the store with Kari behind him. He shuffled through some white dresses and pulled out an exquisite white dress. It was in a Greek style, and it had small jewels embroidered on it that caught the light and sparkled different colors. Kari smiled and asked if she could try it on.

She went into the dressing room and put on the dress she stood in front of the full-length mirror. She smiled and decided to get this one. She hoped that it wasn't too much. After all she was positive that it was silk. But Quatre had told her to say to put it on the winner account. She took off the dress and put back on her jeans and black sleeveless shirt. She then put the dress back on the hanger and carried it out.

She made her purchase and was surprised that the dress was actually only ninety-nine ninety-five. She was about to walk out when a man stopped her. "Hey what are those?" he questioned. Kari raised a brow and said "What's what?"

"Those wings on your back gorgeous. Did you happen to fall from heaven?"

Kari's left brow began to twitch, but she was saved from having to do anything because Duo walked over.

"Hey," said Duo cheerfully.

"Get lost I found her first." Said the other dude.

Duo just kept smiling. "You know I could just punch you in the stomach," started Duo doing as he said. "But that wouldn't be nice, and I could just kick you in the balls," Duo kicks him as he says this also.

"And I could just punch you in the face knocking you and throw you out this door but I am a nice guy I won't do that. LIKE HELL I WON'T!" Duo punches him in the face and tosses him out the store door. Kari and Wufei, who were laughing through the whole thing, straightened up and walked out with Duo.

They decided to head to the food court and get some food. Kari got herself a hamburger with the works as well as French fries, while Duo ordered two of the same meal. Wufei just got sushi and sat down with them.

Duo then stared at the two of them as he was sitting across from the two.

Kari wondered what was wrong with him and waved her hand in front of his face.

After that Duo shook his head and looked at them. "You two are brother and sister." He said looking straight at them, in a non-joking matter.

"What Maxwell you have lost it. How do you figure that?" said Wufei though he was kinda shocked.

"I dunno it just came to me. Like someone whispered it to me." Replied the boy.

Kari blinked.

"Have either of you been having strange dreams?"

"Yes." Both answered at the same time.

Kari and Wufei turned to each other.

"You didn't happen to have a dream about to kids did ya? And the little girl always gets kidnapped?"

Wufei's shock showed. "Y-yeah." They both stared and Wufei then recovered and asked her "You don't happen to have a small birth mark shaped like a Cheery blossom do you?"

Kari blanched. No one knew about that but her since it was on her lower back after all. She gave a nod and Wufei then promptly, said something that shocked her to the core. Something she hadn't heard in years until that dream last night. "Meng,"

"Fei-chan?" she questioned. Wufei smiled he had remembered his sister but he and his family had given her up for dead and had even put up a grave marker in the same field she had been taken from.

He then grabbed her in a big hug. Kari hugged him back, her family her real family.

After they let each other go the began to eat again before Duo asked a question which neither of the two could answer. "How are we gonna tell the others?"

Okay cliffy! I hope you guys liked the chapter. I worked pretty hard on it.

So R&R!
