Chapter 8

Viva la America

"Alright, everyone, shut up. We're going on a field trip." Mr. Iwamoto announced at school the next day. The class cheered at the thought of getting away from school.

"Shut up!" Mr. Iwamoto barked. The class immediately got quiet, with the exception of Yusuke.

"Awesome! I wonder where we're going? Why are you waving your arms around like that, Kuwabara?" Yusuke rambled. Kuwabara used exasperated hand motions and pointed to the teacher, who had smoke rising out of his ears.

"Something wrong, old man?" Yusuke asked rudely. Mr. Iwamoto tried breathing deeply and walked back to his desk. He popped a pill in his mouth and calmed down.

"How much you wanna bet that's a sedative?" Sakura whispered to Mint. Mr. Iwamoto turned back to the class with an eerily happy smile on his face.

"Weeell… Now that that's settled, we'll be going to America. We leave in a week, so get permission from your parents and money to pay for everything. Class dismissed!" He said.

"But we still have an hour left of school." Keiko piped up.

"Then leave early. Have fun!" Mr. Iwamoto giggled. Everyone was too freaked out to say anything so they left.

(Outside)

Kuwabara sat on a bench in deep thought. That's a first.

"Don't strain yourself." Yusuke joked.

"Ha-ha-ha. I just think it's weird how we keep getting' out of class early." Kuwabara said.

"Why are you complaining?" Sakura asked.

"Yaay! We're going to America! We're going to America!" Mint screamed, doing cartwheels.

"We've gotta go and bug Lester to let us go. Later." Sakura said, dragging Mint down the street.

"Bon voyage!" Mint shouted. Yusuke started walking away.

"Where are you going, Yusuke? Your house is the other way." Keiko asked.

"I gotta go do something. I'll see you guys later." Yusuke said before continuing on his way.

(Kurama's school)

Kurama was sitting at his desk taking a test, when he heard taps on the window next to him. He looked outside and sweatdropped.

"Hey! Shuichi!" Yusuke screamed, chucking rocks at the window.

"…Is that a friend of yours, Minamino?" A classmate asked.

"No! I've never seen him before in my life!" Kurama lied quickly.

"Hey, Shuichi Minamino! It's your friend, Yusuke Urameshi!" They heard.

"…I'll be right back." Kurama sighed, leaving the classroom.

(Outside)

"Oh, hey buddy! What took ya so long?" Yusuke greeted. Kurama said nothing and dragged Yusuke by the front of his shirt to somewhere no one could see them.

"You have 10 seconds to tell me why you're here." Kurama growled.

"I'm sensing anger. Is someone having a bad day?" Yusuke asked. Kurama sighed and massaged his forehead.

"I got jumped by my fan club today."

(Flashback to that morning)

Kurama was just walking to school, minding his own business, when he felt like he was being followed. He turned around to find his fan club staring him down.

"HI SHUICHI!" One fangirl, who shall now be called Ashley, screamed.

"Hello…" Kurama said awkwardly, slowly backing away in fear.

"He's escaping! Get him!" Another fangirl, who shall be named Adriana, shouted. Kurama screamed and ran away.

"I love it when he plays hard to get!" Ashley giggled.

(With Kurama)

'Gotta find a place to hide! Gotta find a place to hide!' Kurama thought frantically. He stopped in the middle of the hallway and thought for a minute.

"…The bathroom! They can't go in there!" He said, running into the nearest bathroom.

(With the fangirls)

"Where is he!" Ashley whined.

"…My otaku sense is tingling." Adriana stated, pointing at the boy's bathroom.

"So… Who's going in?" Random fangirl #1 asked.

"Ew! I'm not!" Random fangirl #2 squealed.

"Since we are the presidents, we will go in!" Ashley declared, grabbing Adriana.

"Waaaaaah! I don't wanna! I'm too young for this! IT BURNS!" Adriana screamed.

"I haven't opened the door yet." Ashley sighed.

"Oh. Okie dokie." Adriana said, getting dragged into the bathroom.

(In the bathroom)

Ashley kicked all the stalls open while Adriana hid in the corner covering her eyes. Ashley cam to the last stall and grinned triumphantly.

"At last! I have found you, Shuichi!" She shouted, kicking the door in. She gasped when no one was in there.

"Where the hell is he!" She cried. Kurama, who was up in the venthilation system by that point, grinned and started crawling.

"Kurama, you are a genius!" He whispered to himself. Then, he felt the tunnel floor creak.

"Uh oh." He squeaked.

(With the other fangirls)

"How long are they gonna be in there?" Random fangirl #2 complained loudly. They heard a loud crash behind them and turned to see Kurama fall through the ceiling.

"SHUICHI!" They cried.

"Darn it!" Kurama yelped. He got up to run, but his gracefulness failed him and he tripped, getting glomped by the mass of fangirls that showed up out of nowhere.

(End rediculously long flashback)

Yusuke rolled on the ground in laughter, tears running down his face. Kurama twitched and hit him over the head. Yusuke glared.

"Hey, it's not my fault you're being stalked. I actually kinda envy you." Yusuke mumbled the last sectence to himself.

"You still haven't told me why you graced us with your presence." Kurama said.

"Us?" Yusuke asked in confusion. Kurama pointed over his own shoulder at the tree behind him. Yusuke could see two heads pop back behind the tree.

(Behind the tree)

"I told you we shouldn't have worn the squeaky shoes!" Ashley whispered. Adriana nodded in agreement.

(Back with Yusuke and Kurama)

"Well, we're going on a field trip to America, and we wanted you to come with us." Yusuke explained.

"You want me to what?" Kurama asked. Yusuke sighed.

"I SAID, WE'RE GOING ON A FIELD TRIP TO AMERICA, AND WE WANTED YOU TO COME WITH US!" Yusuke shouted. Kurama rubbed his throbbing ears.

"I heard you the first time." Kurama stated.

"Oh. Sorry." Yusuke apologized sheepishly.

"Well, I can't go. It's only for your school, right?" Kurama said.

"So? You could pretend to be a chaperone or something." Yusuke said.

"I don't know…" Kurama said.

"I know a certain girl that would be really disappointed if you didn't go." Yusuke said with a grin.

"Who?"

"Someone. So whaddaya say?"

"Well, alright."

(Next week)

"Time to go cause some mischief!" Yusuke cheered on the day of their field trip. Keiko hit the back of his head.

"No. You're going to behave." She stated. Then Kurama and Hiei walked up.

"HI HIEI!" Mint screamed, jumping on Hiei. He twitched but didn't say anything.

"Wow, you even got Hiei to join the fun." Yusuke said to Kurama.

"Get your butts moving!" Mr. Iwamoto shouted at them. They all started filing onto the bus, when Mr. Iwamoto stopped Kurama and Hiei.

"Who're you?" He demanded.

"They're new students. Excuse us!" Sakura lied, pushing Kurama and Hiei onto the bus.

"Why'd the shrimp come?" Kuwabara complained when they all got seated.

"If I had a say in this, I wouldn't be here." Hiei grunted.

"Now, now you guys. This is supposed to be fun." Keiko said.

"It sucks." Kuwabara and Hiei said at the same time.

"Hey Yusuke. I'm curious. How did you afford this?" Sakura asked.

"It was kinda creepy." Yusuke said.

(Flashback)

"Hey ma. We're going on this field trip to America, and I need some money." Yusuke said.

"Well why didn't you say so?" Atsuko said, dropping a thick wad of yen on the table. Yusuke's eyes bugged out of his head.

"Holy cheese, ma! Where did this come from!" He asked. Atsuko just grinned.

(End flashback)

"I think my mom's in the mafia." Yusuke said, completely serious. Sakura sweatdropped.

Scary, huh? Well the gang's on their way to America. But are things going to go as planned? Of course not! Stay tuned for chapter nine!
