AN: allo ppls! I like to thank all the ppl that review ch. 8 which is Zoderella, HahaI'mBetterThanYou, cherimai, monk-of-the-kazaana, hypermikogirl, and, kawaiikim. thank you so much for the reviews, and I am so so so sry for being gone for so long I went on vacation, and I obviously and sadly didn't have a laptop -sniffs- but thanx for waiting anyway, well enough chitchat and more writing right? ok here you go!

After sorting everything out and telling everyone why and how she got there, she told them about herself and what she likes, loves, and hates and found out she's alot alike her friends that surrounded her.

"you love animals?" Connie asked Sonako

"of course, I actually have a cat that's our best friend and has been in our family for years, her name is Kilala."

"awwww, can I see her?"

"sure, c'mon." Sonako motioned as Minoru and Itsuya were following and talking from behind.

"kilala! kilala, where'd you go?" Sonako asked as she went inside a hut and looked around for her best cat friend. When she looked in the other room she saw her parents sitting around the fire drinking.

"mama, do you know where Kilala is?" Sonako asked as she went up them.

"yes, she's right here napping." Sango answered quietly as she showed her daughter the sleeping demon.

"ah, crud, oh well, c'mon guys, we'll come back later when she's awake." Sonako said as they followed her outside.

"so what do we do now?" Itsuya asked boringly.

"I don't know." Sonako and Minoru mumbled as Connie was thinking of something to do.

"I know, we'll play hide and go seek!"

"hide and go what?" Minoru asked confused

"hide and go seek, the seeker counts to a certain number while the rest of us go hide, who ever is found and tagged first is the new seeker, oh and when you're done counting, you have to say, 'ready or not here I come!'." she explained clearly while everyone stared wide mouthed at her.

"soooooooo, wanna play?" she asked nervously.

"I guess I'll try it out." Itsuya said as Minoru and Sonako nodded their heads in agreement.

"ok! who'll be the seeker?" she asked as everyone else looked at each other waiting for who was going to be it.

"hey, Minoru Sonako c'mere." Connie motioned as they made their way over there.

"ok, I'm gonna said 'not it', then you guys have to see it before Itsuya says it, so he can be it ok?" she explained as they smiled their answer.

"ok, not it!"

"not it!" Minoru and Sonako yelled at the same time as Itsuya looked at them like they were crazy.

"looks like you're it Itsuya." Connie pointed out.

"what? I'm the seeker?"

"yea." they all said.

"why? how?''

"we all yelled 'not it' which means we're not it, so you're it."

"ah damn!"

"so get countin'." Connie yelled as she started running to a hiding spot.

"count to what!"

"um...30, and don't peek!" Connie warned as everyone else did what she did.

"stupid game, gotta count, be it, don't peek!" Itsuya mumbled as he mimiked Connie.

Sonako hid in the bushes, Minoru hid behind a tree, and Connie hid up a tree.

"ah crap! I totally forgot to tell them about base." she whispered to herself as Itsuya got closer to 30. When Itsuya was done he opened his eyes and looked around.

"oh yea! ready or not here I come!" he yelled as he frantically looked around the wrong places while Sonako giggled. Itsuya heard someone giggle and started looking in the bushes while Sonako tried her best not to laugh, so she put her hand over her mouth. Itsuya finally found Sonako and then Minoru.

"now, I wonder where Connie is?" Itsuya asked himself as everyone else helped him look for her.

-------------------15 MINUTES LATER----------------

"god she's good!" Minoru said as looked in the same place for the 5th time.

''you think we should give up?" Sonako asked tiredly.

''no I have a better way of finding her." Itsuya said as he pointed at his nose.

'ah! that's not fair!' Connie thought to herself as she saw them getting closer. She finally decided to climb higher until there was no more. Itsuya heard leaves rustling so he started to look up trees and sniff around. Then he saw Connie jump from a tree and started running to the well.

"oh no you don't!" Itsuya yelled as he started chasing her. Connie laughted as she finally grabbed the well and yelled, "base!"

"base? what's base?" Itsuya asked as he caught up with her.

"I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you." she started to explain as Sonako and Minoru started walking up.

"when you run from a hiding spot or from someone, there's a thing called base that you have to reach and touch before anyone tags you, if you touch it before the seeker tags you, you're safe until your tagged, but you only have 3 times and if your not caught after your 3rd time then the seeker chooses who's it or that person's it." Connie explained as everyone stared wide mouthed at her again.

"I know it's confusing, that's the easiest I can tell ya. how 'bout I be it for awhile so you guys can get used to the game, ok?"

"fine with me."

"me too."

"me three."

"ok lets go." Connie said as she started to walk away from the well then someone familar grabbed her by the wrist.

"oh no you don't."
