Whee: We're getting closer to the end now, people. This twitching pile of randomness will most likely end sometime this week. So show me your looove!

Yoshimitsu stumbled through the halls, suffering a weak headache which had a promising future in the pain area. His eyes weren't as kaleidoscopic as before, even if they still blinked and popped randomly. He sighed loudly to himself.

"…and then I quit high school to try and become a fireman…" he mumbled to himself, for some reason reciting his entire life to himself. His foot hit something. He looked down. He blinked.

"I saw a strange man lying naked on the floor." He said to himself. "I cocked my head to my side and wondered what he was doing there."

He did just so. His right eye popped. He realized who it was there.

"I realized that I was looking at a strangely naked Lei Wulong, with a lot of cash tied around his neck. I took a moment to wonder what in God's name had happened to his shoes."

Lei mumbled something and tried to open his eyes. Yoshimitsu took a step back and looked around.

"I knew that show-off bastard, Raven, could be in every shadow." He hissed to himself. "I spent a short moment to be happy for Lei's sake that Paul Phoenix hadn't found him yet. Then I realized I had no idea if that was what had actually happened."

He paused for a while.

"I decided without reason to poke him with my foot." He said and carried it out, poking Lei's chest with his foot. "Poke."

Lei suddenly grinned.

"Duuuuubliiiiiin…" he moaned and turned to the side. His head suddenly jerked up. "Wha? Wuzzappenin'? Wheredidallthe…?"

Yoshimitsu frowned slightly, looking around again.

"He was obviously a very confused man." He mumbled again. "I of course found the situation more hilarious than anything less of a poet could describe. I asked the poor, naked man what had happened to him."

He then bent down, looking at Lei. Lei looked back up at him. Nothing happened for a long while.

"Well?" Yoshimitsu finally said. Lei raised a hand, waving it carelessly.

"The mayflower…" he slurred, grinning again. "The mayflower with the tingling ears and the rappin' microscopes that travel over their dreeeeaaaams!"

He stretched out the last word in a strange, songlike voice before breaking out into giggles. Yoshimitsu nodded slowly and thoughtfully.

"Of course I understood that this man had been mentally assaulted by the dreaded Xit'cthulua! I knew I hadn't much time left to stop them before they took over the world and made every skyscraper their bitch." He rambled. "I knew this man could me my greatest proof of their actual existence."

He bent down, almost effortlessly picked Lei up and hung him over his shoulder. Lei looked around and began rambling away in Chinese. Yoshimitsu walked away, slowly, gazing thoughtfully at the floor.

"I wondered to myself where I could find a room safe enough from the dreaded void-creatures to question this man and, if possible, heal the remainder of his shattered mind."

He walked in silence for a short while.

"Preferably a room with a lockable door." He added. He looked up when he noticed a closet just a bit away. Lei was still talking happily to himself in Chinese. Yoshimitsu looked at the closet for a long, long while. His eyes behaved strangely. He shook his head.

"I decided it might be better to just kill the man and put him out of…" he began, but paused when he noticed Paul walking towards them down the corridor. He hadn't caught sight of them yet. Yoshimitsu gasped in horror.

"I gasped in horror! There came the man that would almost surely make the remainder of the night an absolute hell. I decided to go for…"

He didn't finish the sentence, instead leaping at the door, forcing it open. Lei laughed loudly by the surprising movement.

"Whee!" he squealed as Yoshimitsu dumped him on the floor and locked the door, listening to the sound of steps disappearing down the hall. He sighed in relief.

"I sighed in relief and decided to now go out and instead find a crowded place to put this man, allowing him to blend in with his surroundings. Or, at least get him off my back."

He tried the handle, almost not surprised when he found that it wouldn't work. He sighed deeply.

"I understood the door was locked, most likely impossible to open from inside, as I had by know learned how these things worked. I was also becoming aware of a growing headache and how incredibly stupid it is to talk to oneself. I tried the light switch."

It didn't work. He wasn't surprised.

"Of course, it didn't work. I was standing in the dark closet with a headache and a naked Xit'cthulua victim, who was now clawing on my leg, continuing his sad ramblings in his native tongue. I was seriously pondering whether it would be easier to just kill myself."

There was a short silence. Lei managed to get up from the floor.

"I now realized there was very little room in the closet." Yoshimitsu said to himself. "I felt panic creep up on me as I wondered how long the air supply would last."

"Oooooh, fuzzy…" Lei added without reason. There was an even longer silence. Yoshimitsu cleared his throat.

"It was dark." He stated. Lei looked around. After a while, he hissed a Chinese curse after trying to stick his thumb into Yoshimitsu's still quite kaleidoscopic eyes. Yoshimitsu sighed.

"I suddenly became uncomfortably aware of just how naked this poor man was. Also, I noted he was quite rich. It was very dark…"

There was a long, uncomfortable silence. Lei had stopped his ramblings, instead standing perfectly still in frightened silence.

"I was overwhelmed by an odd lust to paint him grey." Yoshimitsu finally admitted. Lei added a terrified whimper.

Jin leant against the wall, glaring at all the people around him. He noticed Baek coming towards him and rolled his eyes with an annoyed sigh.

"Well…" Baek began, but was interrupted by an index finger suddenly being shoved in his chest.

"Just stop talking right now!" Jin snarled. "My father is NOT gay! He might be an egocentric, evil, sadistic, ugly asshole, but he sure as hell isn't gay!"

"Yeah." A random by-passer added. Jin and Baek looked after the person, strangely unable to see who it had been. Baek shrugged and turned back towards Jin.

"Alright." He said, raising his hands in front of his face to fend Jin off. "I won't mock you about your father. I promise. I'll just go torment Ganryu instead. Do you have a cookie?"

Jin grimaced.

"Cookies are evil! Don't you know that a cookie every…"

"Gotta go!" Baek said quickly and ran off, desperately trying to avoid a health lecture. Jin looked after him.

"FOOL!" he called, perfectly aware of the fact that Baek wouldn't give a damn. He then leant back against the wall, sighing. Jun and Julia appeared out of nowhere.

"Aw, don't take it so hard, Jin." Jun comforted him, patting his shoulder.

"I think it's better for us all that he finally came out of the closet, anyway." Julia added. Jin groaned in a very agitated way.

"Don't you two get it!" he snarled, towering above them. "His happiness isn't the point! The point is that as long as people think my father is gay, everyone will assume that I am gay too! Which I am not!"

He stormed off, muttering darkly to himself. Jun and Julia stared after him.

"Bye Jin!" Julia called. "Remember that alcohol is bad for you!"

"You're the living proof!" Jun added in a thoughtless moment. Jin stopped instantly and turned around slowly, staring at his mother with a red glint barely visible in his eyes.

"What did you say?" he breathed. Jun glanced nervously from side to side with a sheepish grin.

"Uh… nothing."

"Did you just imply that I am an accident!"

Baek rolled his eyes a bit away.

"Well, duh."

"I can't take this anymore!" Jin roared, horns suddenly protruding from the sides of his head. He snarled beastly as tattoos on his chest and face appeared, darkening quickly. He cried out in rage mixed with pain as the huge, black wings shot out from his back. No one noticed a surprised gasp from a doorway. Kazuya stood there, wiping a small tear of happiness from his eye with a sigh.

"My boy is all grown up…!"

Jin let his shining eyes run over the crowd, grinning evilly. He turned towards all the people staring at him in horror and surprise. He took a few steps forward, suddenly spreading his wings.

"JIN MAD!" he cried out and took another step forward. "JIN SMASH!"

Kazuya walked to Jun's side and put an arm around her as he watched his son's outburst of rage with unmasked interest.

"JIN…!"

Devil Jin was cut off by a sudden, hard punch to the mouth, making him take a step back. Julia attacked him with a very feminine battle-cry, letting hard punches rain all over his face and chest. Kazuya's mouth dropped in surprise. Jun shrugged.

"Our son might be a murderous devil when he gets mad, but Julia's a nut job." She stated. Kazuya had to agree. Devil Jin fell to the floor with a groan, not getting back up for a while. He then lifted himself so he leaned on one elbow, wiping blood from his mouth.

"I…!" he began, but was again interrupted, this time by a sudden kick to the crotch. He cried out and clutched it, curling up in a ball, his wings flapping comically. Julia crossed her arms and simply turned around. Jin tried desperately to get back up on his feet.

"No one kicks a demon in the groin and gets away with it…!" he whimpered. He had to take a shaky, deep breath before he could continue. "No one…!"

Everyone heard the sounds off running steps. Baek appeared out of nowhere, grinning more evilly than anyone thought possible, and gave Jin an almost inhumanly hard kick to the groin, just for fun's sake. Jin whimpered again with a now unnaturally shrill voice, curling up to the little ball again. Julia suddenly turned around and spat at him.

"There's what you get for being cursed like that!" she snarled before she completely unexpectedly turned around and kicked Kazuya too, right in the soft spot. He just made a weird, 'oof'-ing sound and dropped to his knees before clutching the sensitive area.

"And there's what YOU get for screwing Jun 20 years ago!" Julia snarled. Jun rolled her eyes behind Kazuya.

"Well, we were wasted, what were we supposed to do?"

Kazuya gave up and collapsed to the floor, breathing shallowly. Jin made a strange smacking sound.

"I taste blood in my mouth…" he whimpered.

A person walked through the halls, whistling to themselves. They looked around, looking for something to amuse themselves which, but they knew the activities for the night were practically over, most people had already passed out on very random places on Lee's darling Ship. The person stopped and kicked the floor with a deep, bored sigh. They looked around in the vain hope that they might actually find one last thing to do. Anything at all. The person suddenly felt a hand land on their shoulder and turned around, startled.

"It's useless to resist…!" a strangely drunk Raven murmured. The person blinked.

"Please be gentle…!" They whined before Raven simply kidnapped them.

Marduk stepped over the two suffering men on the floor and approached Julia with a grin. He remembered what was up with her before he reached her and decided to approach with caution. He reached out a hand and carefully patted her shoulder.

"Miss Chang?" he asked carefully. "Julia?"

She turned around slowly with a warm smile.

"Yes?"

"I just wanted to tell you how… admirable it was of you to dispatch those evil demon-men back there."

He pointed with his thumb over his shoulder at Jin and Kazuya, still suffering together. Julia gave them a quick glance and shrugged.

"It's what I do." She said. Marduk gasped in admiration.

"Really!" he asked. "I've been trying to find someone like you for ages! Someone who knows the right path! I… are you Christian?"

She gave him a surprised look.

"Christian? Oh, no no, I believe in mother Nature and the spirits of the wild."

Marduk stared blankly at her before shaking his head slowly.

"Heretic." He said, as if he had just pointed out that it was raining. She glared darkly at him.

"How dare you!" she hissed and gave him a hard slap. He rubbed his cheek and glared back.

"Turn the other cheek, turn the other cheek…" he muttered. They glared at each other quietly for a while.

"Wanna make out?" Julia finally asked. Marduk shrugged.

They carried it out.

The captain gave his catch an unhappy look.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk…" he smacked. "The whales just keep getting smaller and smaller."

Jack-5 lay twitching on deck, making small robotic noises every now and then. His eyes flashed sadly, somehow.
