Alright! So my 10th chapter is here! Well, what to do huh? I'll give you an idea…R&R!

Ah, yes…our loyal Hinata crew are on their way to save their precious, yet unimportant, and not so valuable inmate, Shinobu. After defeating Robert Ghai in a fight, the crew continue to trek on the highway…

Somewhere on a highway headed towards Okinawa…

Keitaro: "Yo sis! Any idea when we're gonna get to Okinawa?"

Kanako: "Nah, not really bro…"

Su: "WE GONNA DRIVE TO OKINAWA! I LIKE BANANAS! BLUE IS A COLOR!"

Naru: "Shut up dumbfuck! We can't just 'drive' to Okinawa"

Su: "WHY! WHY!"

Naru: "Okinawa is a separate island in Japan, we gotta boat there or something'"

Sarah: "And here I thought this van could do EVERYTHING…isn't that right dad?"

Seta: "Yeah, well…er…you see…wouldn't you rather have a nice romantic boat ride to Okinawa instead dear?"

Sarah: "Fuck that! I wanna kick Kai's Chinese ass!"

Seta: "What do you think Haruka?"

Haruka: "Uh…sure…romantic…sounds fine with me"

Seta: "Well that's that…because Haruka's so damn fine, her vote counts as 100 votes, so too bad, we're gonna boat there!"

Sarah: "WAAAHHH! THAT'S NOT FAIR!" with Sarah's high-pitched scream, she breaks the windshield ten times over.

Charles: almost deaf "AAHH! SARAH! PLEASE! CALM DOWN!"

Sarah: flushes "Ok Charles…teehee…" blushes some more

Kanako: "Thank you Charles…what would we do without you?"

Keitaro: "Quite a lot actually"

Naru: "Shut the fuck up!"

Kitsune: "Hmm…a romantic boat ride eh?" Perfect…this would be my chance to use my 'charms' on Keitaro…he cant resist my body even if he tried…

Naru: "Yo Kitsune…if you're thinking about using your body to persuade Keitaro on this romantic boat trip that we somehow decided on so he can forever be your boyfriend because if you tried any other method he would be too stupid to even notice, then don't….or else I'll break your ass in half"

Charles: "Just chill Naru…why can't you just let them be huh?"

Naru: "Well…because…"

Keitaro: "Is it because you're deeply in love with me but you can't admit it?"

Naru: "Fuck no! Why the fuck would I fucking ever fucking think about fucking you?"

Keitaro: "……do you realize what you just said?"

Naru: "FUCK YEAH!"

Mutsumi: wakes up "I think Naru needs a bit more" pulls out her needle and injects Naru with it

Naru: "WHAT ARE YOU DOING! THAT FUCKING HURTS!"

Mutsumi: pulls out another hundred needles and punctures Naru with them "That should be enough"

Naru: "I'll…get…you…for……….this……." falls asleep into a near-death state

Keitaro: "I love you Mutsumi" kisses Mutsumi on the cheek

Kitsune: Damn, that girl's so lucky…

Motoko: "Hey Charles…"

Charles: "Yo!"

Motoko: "You don't mind partnering up with me on the boat do you?"

Charles: "Nope! Not at all!" smiles

Motoko: "That's good…"

Charles: "Y'know…I've only beaten you once…and that was WITH Su…wouldn't it be more reasonable to fight me one-on-one before you decide to fall in love with me?"

Motoko: "But you still defeated me nevertheless…"

Charles: "But that wouldn't make sense, because my goal would be destroying you AND Su, so my priority on destroying you was only half of what I would've given if it was JUST you…and I merely used Su's missiles which coincidentally seemed to fire at the same time you just finished your sword technique…so really I just got lucky"

Motoko: "Hey…that's…that's right! I have no reason to LOVE YOU AT ALL!"

Keitaro: "I wish for Motoko to forget everything you just told you"

Charles: "What!……..fine……."

Motoko: "buah?…for a second there I thought about killing Charles…but…that would've been silly of me"

Charles: "What the hell was that for man?"

Keitaro: "Look…I'm just doing you a favor…you don' know how lucky you got it man…"

Charles: "I was just trying to tell the truth yknow!"

Keitaro: "Good guys finish last…I thought you would've known that for being a magician and all"

Charles: "feh…whatever"

Kanako: "Yo guys! We're almost at the terminal"

Mei: wakes up "It's about damn time…"

Charles: "Glad to see you've come to flatty"

Mei: "Shut up" fingers Charles

Charles: "Hey…I wanna ask you somethin'"

Mei: "What is it?"

Charles: "Why…why did you try to attack me in the first place? I mean…clearly you had no reason to…"

Mei: "…"

Charles: "I gave you my strength…something that was very dear to me…but still you wished to destroy me…was there something I did that was so wrong?"

Mei: "…"

Charles: "Your farfetched reason to destroy me…feh…you really think I'd believe that? You just lost to Robert…heck, you barely survived!"

Mei: "…well, I,"

Charles: "Well what? Mind telling me what this shit is about? If there's something that I've done wrong I'll do my best to fix it"

Mei looks over to Seta and paused for a while. Seta shakes his head and signals back to Mei.

Mei: "Sorry…I can't say right now…"

Charles: "That's too bad…if you haven't my power, I'd be able to read your mind…but…oh well…"

Motoko: "Don't worry too much Charles, it's not much of a loss if she gained power from you…"

Charles: "Wait…how did you know she did?"

Motoko: "A wild guess"

Charles: "Seems more than just a guess to me…"

Motoko: "Doesn't matter…really…"

Charles: "Hmm…"

Haruka: "Anyone got some smokes? I'm all out!"

Everyone but Haruka: "NO! WE DON'T SMOKE!"

Haruka: "What?…no…smokes?…I….I can't live without my smokes! AAAAHHHH!" begins violently shaking.

Seta: "Uh…Haruka…are you ok?"

Haruka: slaps Seta "Shut up bitch! Bring me mah smokes!"

Keitaro: "Hey aunt! I could just wish for some and…"

Haruka: slaps Keitaro "SHUT UP BEOTHC! I NEED MAH SMOKEZZ! AAAHHH!"

Keitaro: "Charles…"

Charles: "Whatever…" Charles snaps his fingers and makes Haruka fall asleep.

Mei: "I'm sure glad I came on this trip…I don't even remember why now…"

Kanako: "None of us do…none of us do…"

Sarah: "So…are we getting close to the terminal or…?"

Kanako: "Just hold on ok?"

Sarah: "I can't! I have to piss…AGAIN!"

Kanako: "You really need to control your bladder! You've pissed enough times to fill up a cooler!"

Sarah: "Well it's not my fault that you're such a bitch!"

Kanako: "Wha…that…that doesn't even make any sense!"

Keitaro: "Can everyone just please shut up?"

Motoko: "Shut up limp dick!"

Kitsune: "Don't talk to my lover like that!"

Motoko: "He's not your fucking lover!"

Charles: "FUUCK!" Charles emit's a greenish light from his body to everyone around him causing them all to fall asleep except for Kanako.

Kanako: "Thank you"

Charles: "No problem"

Kanako: "So…you're a magician eh? Haven't seen one of those around for long"

Charles: "You mean…you've seen another?"

Kanako: "Yeah…only for a brief second…I think his name was…Negi, or something like that…"

Charles: "Negi? Never heard of 'im"

Kanako: "Doesn't matter…not like he's important or anything"

Charles: "Yeah…probably some dumb 10 year old kid that comes from England training to be an English professor at an all girl's school"

Kanako: "Yeah…maybe…"

Soon, Kanako drives herself on the never ending highway until she reaches a ferry terminal that's headed straight for Okinawa. However, upon their arrival, it turns out that neither Kanako or Charles has any money to actually pay for everyone to go on the ferry…so they decide to wait until the next day until everyone awoke from their slumber…and of course Sarah pissed in her pants about 4 more times in her sleep.

That night however…Charles stares into the deep blue sea from the terminal quietly letting the night breeze brush through his hair. The sandy beach he had laid upon was comfortable for him, letting the sands run through his fingers.

Charles: staring up into the sky "I wonder how everyone back home is doing…"

A shadowy figure approaches Charles and calls his name.

Charles: "Hm? Yes?"

: "Hello there…where you headed stranger?"

Charles: "Huh…oh…it's you…"

: "What? You don't sound pleased to hear from me again"

Charles: "Why the hell should I?"

: "I just thought it would be nice to have a friendly reunion…"

Charles: "Whatever…I'm on my way to Kai's place to rescue Shinobu you know…but I suppose you already knew that…"

: "Why are you doing this? What motivated you?"

Charles: "Well…she got kidnapped and…"

: "But…you can leave right now out of your own free will…nobody wished you to search for her"

Charles: "That's…true…"

: "Well? What are you waiting for?"

Charles: "But I don't want to though…and besides…I'm gonna get her as well…"

: "You mean Mei?"

Charles: "I want to get my power back and make her kiss my ass"

: "Why not do that now? She's sleeping in the van…"

Charles: "I know…but I don't have enough magic to take it from her…I have to wait to get my staff first…"

: "Do you even know why Kai's holding all those girls captive?"

Charles: "…keep talking"

: "It's to get something that you want so dearly…"

Charles: "…my staff…"

: "You're quick boy…but you should be aware that it wont be easy…"

Charles: "Never thought it would"

: "Feh…you never give up do you…just for you power…what's so special about it?"

Charles: "I need to return home someday to my wife…she hasn't seen me back from work for about four months now…and before I get back…I want myself back as well…"

: "So it's all about these moral issues huh? It's all about your own personal gain?"

Charles: "…"

: "Whatever, I'm gonna go ahead and wait for you…you should be ready when you drop by" and with that, the shadow stepped back and disappeared into the darkness from whence it came from.

Charles: "Don't worry Ghai…I'll be ready…" Charles gets up and heads to the van to join the others in their slumber.

The next morning…

Su: "I WANT FOOOOOOOOD! WHEREZ THE FOOOOOOOOOD!"

Everyone jumps up from their sleep.

Keitaro: "Holy shit! What the hell!"

Charles: "Hold on Su…I'll get it for you…" Charles makes a McDonalds appear outside the van and everyone goes there to eat.

Keitaro: "Yeah, I'd like a big Mac with some fries and a coke to go please"

Kitsune: "Fatty foods for breakfast? That 'aint good for you y'know"

Keitaro: "Shut up bitch! I want my food!"

Kitsune: "Teehee…you're so cute when you're angry"

Keitaro: oO "Okey dokey…"

Kanako: "Come on everyone…let's get on the boat huh?"

Su: "SU NOT DONE! SU WANT MORE! SU WANT MORE!"

Hesitantly, Kanako bitch slaps Su and everyone gets to the ferry terminal.

Boatman (Botan): "Hey there…so is it all of you going on?"

Naru: "Fuck yeah!"

Keitaro: "Uh…sure…"

Botan: "Alrighty then…that'll be…1...2...3..." begins counting everyone. "Well…you got two choices, you can either take the crappy half of a ship over there that sinks upon the drop of a hat, that'll only cost you 1,000 yen…OR with our special package, you can get our ROMANTIC cruise over there, that'll cost you 1,000,000 yen…"

Naru: "Fuck the romantic cruise…let's just take that ship over there…"

Keitaro: "NO WAY! IT'LL SINK!"

Naru: "Well do you have the fucking money for the other one?"

Keitaro: "As a matter of fact I do!" Keitaro pulls out a wad of cash from his pocket and gives two million yen to Botan as a tip "Keep the change you filthy animal"

Botan: "Yes sir!"

And with that…everyone got on the romantic cruise ship…again everyone paired off with their counterparts.

By the café in the ship, that just happened to be a Starbucks…

Seta: sips his coffee "Well well Haruka…now that we're finally on our romantic cruise together…waddya say you and I find a private room and uh…do the horizontal mambo, if you know what I mean" winks at her.

Haruka: "GODDAMMIT! I'VE BEEN IN WITHDRAWL FOR LIKE 2 DAYZ! I NEED MAH SMOKEZ!"

Seta: ;; "er…m, maybe there's somewhere you can buy some…"

Haruka: "TEHN GO AND BY IT!"

Seta: "eheheh…s, sure thing…" Damn…she's like Su on PMS…I better get her the smokes if I wanna score…"J, just wait here ok?" Seta gets up and begins wandering around the ship to find a store of some kind to buy some cigs"

Haruka: MAH CIGZ WHERE THE DAH HEL R MAH CIGZ!#"

By the arcade in the ship…

Kanako: "Uh, Su?"

Su: "WOOOOOOOOW XD THEY GOT DDR! PLAY WITH ME KANAKO!"

Kanako: "sigh…if I must…"

Su: puts in a million tokens "LETS PLAY DA LEGEND OF MAXX!" the song begins to play and Su break dances to the song and successfully gets a perfect on every single arrow.

Kanako: struggling "How the fuck…do you play this thing?" missing every arrow that passes her by.

By a White Spot on the ship…

Keitaro: "Uh yeah…I'd like some chicken strips with a large vanilla milk shake and some fries too, and don't forget the boat either!"

Kitsune: "Keitaro! You just ate fast food like…2 hours ago!"

Keitaro: "Well I got the money…"

Kitsune: "It's not good for you! You'll get a heart attack or something!"

Keitaro: "Not really…only if I eat this stuff 24/7"

Kitsune: "BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO!"

Keitaro: "Huh…so I do…"

Kitsune: "You don't care about your health!"

Keitaro: "Listen…I'll share the milkshake with you ok?"

Kitsune: blushes "eh?" Sharing a milkshake with Keitaro "Oh! I'd love to Keitaro! Teehee!"

Keitaro: "Jeez…if you wanted some you could've just asked…"

Somewhere on deck…

Naru: "Holy fuck!"

Mei: "What is it big sister?"

Naru: "I don't know! I just like saying 'fuck' a lot!"

Mei: "Are you sure something isn't bothering you?"

Naru: "Fuck no!"

Mei: "Maybe it's because that Kitsune is in love with Keitaro…?"

Naru: "Actually…that is why I'm pissed off"

Mei: "Eh? You're so straight forward"

Naru: "Well yeah, I mean, I gotta let me feelings go sometimes yknow?"

Mei: "So…you do like him?"

Naru: "I always have! I just never wanted to tell him because every time I get close, I get this sudden urge to kick him in the crotch"

Mei: "Why don't I just go and tell him for you?"

Naru: "Nah…that's alright…I'll do it someday…when the time is right…" Naru faces the horizon and smiles; her hair flowing in the curtains of the wind that passed the sisters by.

Mei: gazing at Naru Woah…when did she become so…pretty…and beautiful…and sexy…? "Uh…Naru?"

Naru: "WAT THE FUCKING FUCK IS IT!"

Mei: "Yup…still my fucked up sister…"

Somewhere else on deck…

Mutsumi: "So…what do YOU wanna do Sarah?"

Sarah: "Are those things even real? Where the hell did you get your plastic surgery done huh?"

Mutsumi: "Well…they were always this way…"

Sarah: "Damn…you could like…suffocate people in there!"

Mutsumi: "Oh, my…I wouldn't want to do that…"

Sarah: "What cup is that anyways? It looks like an 'E' to me…"

Mutsumi: "Teehee…they've been this way since I was a child actually"

Sarah: "What?…damn…you must've attracted a lot of guys eh?"

Mutsumi: "Nope! Just the girls!"

Sarah: "HUH!"

Finally, at a store somewhere on the ship…

Motoko: "I wonder if they have any swords here…"

Charles: "I…don't think they sell swords on this ship Motoko"

Motoko: "Dammit…they should!"

Charles: "Sorry about your other sword"

Motoko: blushes "D, don't worry about it…I'll get a new one"

Charles: "Alright…uh, hey! Can I tell you something?"

Motoko: "Huh? What is it?"

Charles: "Well you see…it's about our relationship…and how you feel about me…"

Motoko: "Yes?"

Charles: "You see, back on my home planet, there are a lot of other girls and females there"

Motoko: "Yes? What about them?"

Charles: "And well, one of those girls I just happen to know very well"

Motoko: "Oh really? What's her name"

Charles: "Er…Ale…but that doesn't matter, you see what DOES matter is that I'm marrie…"

Seta: Bursts into the store screaming like a monkey "DOES ANYONE ON THIS SHIP HAVE ANY CIGS!"

Store Owner: "Uh, yeah! We got a hundred pack right here"

Seta: "I'LL TAKE IT!"

Motoko: "Damn! What an unexpected interruption! It's almost like he purposely came in here just at the exact same time you were about to say something very important that could either plunge our relationship to hell or make it rise to the top! So…what were you about to say Charles?"

Charles: "sigh…never mind…"

Motoko: "Oh…ok…"

PA: "Everyone! We're about to arrive in Okinawa very shortly…please grab any luggage, make any last purchases, and please wait at the exit until arrival…I repeat…"

Mei: "I…guess we should get going then?"

Naru: "FUK U!"

Everyone meets up at the exit of the ship and begin to converse with one another. Upon their arrival they all walk off the ship (they didn't wanna bring the van with them) and walk into the lobby wondering what to do next.

Charles: "So…Kanako, Mutsumi, you both said that you knew where Kai lived?"

Kanako: "Well, actually, I didn't really know…I just pretended to know because I wanted to drive the van"

Charles: "Ooook…and what about you Mutsumi?"

Mutsumi: "Of course I know where he lives! I remember it like the back of my hand! He lives right around…" dies on the spot again.

Naru: "AH FUCK! NOW WHAT!"

Random Guy: "Ahem…excuse me, are you the umm…" reads the sign that he's holding "The Hinata crew?"

Sarah: "Huh?"

Everyone looks at the man and he appears to be dressed very formally and see that he's holding a sign saying "Hinata Crew" on it.

Su: "YAYAYA! WE HINATA CREW!"

Random Guy: "Sure…uhm…your limo is this way…please, follow me…"

Everyone except Mutsumi: "A LIMO!"

Seta: "Damn! I'm SO there!"

Haruka: smoking 20 cigarettes at the same time "Ah, what the hell…let's take a ride"

Charles: "Weird…why would Kai formally invite us to his place?"

Naru: "Maybe he doesn't like sitting on his ass waiting for a dumbfuck like you!"

Charles: "Whatever…"

Everyone follows the random guy to the limo and boards it. Everyone sits in a circle within the limo and begin to converse with each other, not caring about what's just about to happen.

Motoko: "You alright Charles? You should relax and settle down"

Charles: "Yeah well…there's gonna be a lot coming up you know…"

Motoko: "Like what Charles?"

Charles: "Mei…Kai…Robert Ghai…and I don't know what's up with Seta either"

Motoko: "Robert? I thought you killed him!"

Charles: "Nah…he's just as powerful as I am, and I for one should know that someone like that wouldn't go down that easily"

Motoko: "Don't worry about it…you beat him once and I'm sure you can beat him again"

Charles: grabs Motoko's hands "Motoko…I think I'll need you help this time"

Motoko: blushes "Ch, Charles! What is this?"

Charles: "Please…he's not an easy foe…I'll need to borrow all your strength if you expect me to win"

Motoko: "ALL my strength?"

Charles: "Please…"

Motoko: "Alright, alright…but just promise me that you'll return it to me afterwards ok?"

Charles: "Don't worry, I will"

Motoko: "Promise me one thing ok?"

Charles: "Yeah?"

Motoko: "I don't know what your relationship is with this, Ale girl you spoke of but I take it that she's a good friend of yours…"

Charles: "…"

Motoko: "But…I love you Charles…"

Charles: "You…WHA!"

Motoko: "So please…don't die…make that a promise for her…and for me…"

Charles: "Uh…sure?" Motoko loves me? When the hell did this happen? I mean…nothing even happened between us or nothing'! Man…so much to deal with…
