"It... It's freezing..." Kel sniffled "ACHOO!"
"Well it is winter, what did you expect?" Kuro asked "By the way, what're you all going to do for christmas? It's like, in two days" I put my hand on my chin into the smile gesture.
"Well, I came with this somewhat brilliant idea" I grinned
"Oh no! Not the sock length scarfs!" D3pa1 cried. I fell off the bench we were sitting on.
"NO! The only thing I had in mind is, well, since our folks aren't home, we should all have a christmas sleep over!" I said happily "It can be at my place and will last for the whole christmas weekend! There's a cherry wood chest in the middle of the living room but Cliff and a few others can move that outta the way so we could all sleep there"
"YES! I SHALL SLEEP BY YOUR SIDE AND GUARD YOU! IF YOU ARE COLD, I SHALL KEEP YOU WARM IN MY LOVING ARMS! AND- GAA!"
"You're sleeping on the other side of the room you looney dork!" Cliff said unsticking Vale from me.
"NOOOOO!"
"Cool, we've been wanting to have a sleep over for quite a while" Kuro said with a smile
"Yeah, we can tell stories!" D3pa1 said and zoomed a few centimeters from my face making her scary face "WE CAN TELL GHOST STORIES!"
"AHHHHHHHHH!" I cried falling off the bench again "Dammit stop doing that! You know I get jumpy!"
"You never used to be this jumpy, I think..." Kakashi said fixing the black ribbon over his eye.
"So yeah, we can tell stories, and wait for Santa Claus to come!" I said "Jolly old Saint Nick I'm a gonna see ya!"
"You still believe in Santa? You're more dumb then I thought..." Zero said smacking me in the back of my head
"Meep! Nothing wrong with believing Santa!" I whimpered "Besides, as soon as I see him he's getting a hug!"
"OMG SHE'S GONNA KILL SANTA!" D3pa1 shouted "HURRY KURO! CONTAINMENT MANUVERS!"
"Right!"
"WAAAAARRRK!" I squacked readying myself to run.
"Um, Kiako-chan, what is christmas no da?" Chichiri asked. Everyone stared at him
"Actually, now that I think about it I don't know what christmas is either" Heihachi said tapping his chin. A few others agreed.
"Oh lordy loo... Guys, we've got some work to do..." I said shaking my head.
ʓʓʓ
"Good morning! Today is December 23rd and here are your announcments!"
"Do they do these every morning? It's all so repeatative" BM said resting his head on his desk as the announcements dragged and drizzled on and on.
"Yeah, seems some of these preps got nothing else to do so they just do announcements" D3pa1 said.
"-And there's an event for this snowy holiday season! Organized by our very own Ashley from the student counsil, There will be a rose exchange!"
"Rose exchange?" gossip exploded through our room.
"The rule is that you must give a red rose to a person you really like! A close friend? Maybe you're dream guy or gal that's been walking around your mind! If you give the red rose to them, you're giving them the message 'I Love you!' if you get a red rose, you use either a white or yellow rose for your reply! White for yes, Yellow for no."
"Oh my god... not another stupid event..." D3pa1 muttered "How cheesy..." I SWEAR I just wanted her to shut up! Besides, I wanted to listen to the rest of the rules...
"If you get a yellow, don't feel bad you poor fellow. It you get white, you get together with the person who gave you the red rose and dance all night!"
"Sounds interesting, I suppose" I said. DAMN STRAIGHT IT'S INTERESTING! But... I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up or anything...
Who would give me a flower that meant 'I love you?' Well, besides Vale but...I dunno about him...
My inner chibi heaved a sigh.
"So that's it for our announcements have a romanticly red white yellow day! Oh, and the flowers will be given away in front of the office!" Right at that instant everyone started an uproar of chatting again.
"That sounded interesting, huh Kiako-chan no da?" Chichiri said
"I suppose... I'm not really sure" I shrugged. Heihachi cleared his throat and started in a very poetic tone.
"The language of flowers, is a hard language to understand" He said and smiled "Was that shabby?"
"Not bad, Shakespear" Kakashi said, his voice muffled behind his scarf.
"I say we just pretend we never heard the stupid thing... You never know what'll happen..." D3pa1 said glancing at J., who did this...girly...pansy wave I think it's called...
"Now class, since that is over and done with... let us begin." the teacher began to write on the board and explain some things about Connotation and Denotation... So...boring... I felt a poke in my back and glanced to see Kakashi prodding me with a piece of paper. I took it and quickly read it.
You really find interest in that rose exchange don't you?
I quickly scribbled on the paper and handed it back.
HOW THE HECK DO YOU KNOW THESE THINGS! YOU PSYCHIC!
The note was quickly passed back.
By the way you were listening to intently and you had that funny smile on your face. :p
"Damn..." I muttered "He's a freaking true ninja"
"What was that Kiako?" the teacher asked
"Nothing nothing!"
Eventually we survived the rest of school and hopped onto the bus that our phys ed teacher told us to take, too bad it was so damn crowded...
"Wheee! The bust no da!" Chichiri said happily running back and forth around the bus
"How many times do I have to tell you? It's called a BUS! B-U-S!" Zero shouted "GEEZ! I knew monks were dumb but annoying too?"
"Oh shut up and be nice... It's almost christmas! A time to share with friends and loved ones and a time to be thankful for all the good things we have in our lives!" I said waving my finger in the air.
"Jee Kiako, Heihachi must REALLY be rubbing off on you" Kel said with a grin
"Yeah, especially because of the way he rubs against her..." Zero said before getting punched in the head by Vale
"NEVER! DO NOT SPOUT SUCH NONSENSE ABOUT MY DEAR KIAKO AFFILIATING WITH THAT CHIPMUNK!" he shouted dramaticaly.
"Chipmunk?" Heihachi blinked a few times. I was practicaly ready to smash Vales mouth in. HOW DARE HE SAY THAT ABOUT HEIHACHI! Er, I mean, What am I saying!
"So, uh, when's our stop?" Cliff asked
"Next one actually"
"Aww, next no da?" Chichiri whimpered.
"No worries, I'll give you icecream" Zero said pushing the STOP button on the bus
"...Icecream no da?"
ʓʓʓ
I sighed opening the fridge. Jeez, since everyone practically ate like starved dinosours the fridge was pretty empty except for the turkey and a few veggies and stuff... I can cook, just one problem.
I HAVEN'T THE SLIGHTEST IDEA HOW TO MAKE X-MAS DINNER!
"Man, I'm gonna need a miracle..." I whimpered.
"AHHHHHHH!" By god that was Kuro's scream! And she hardly ever screams! I ran out of the kitchen to the living room jumping the steps and seeing my fireplace starting to swirl colors again.
"Holy mother of pancakes! I asked for a miracle not another disaster!" I cried
"This is your fault? I'LL KILL YOU IF ANY MORE IDIOTS COME OUT OF YOUR FIREPLACE!" Kuro shouted. As soon as the swirling turbulance of my whole floor shaking, there seemed to be a sudden increase of population in my house...
"Train get of off me! You're crushing me, and Eve!" a green hair man in a white suit and an eye patch on his right eye yelled trying not to squish a small girl with blonde hair underneath him.
"Where'd Rins go? AHHH! WHERE DID MY SHOUGAYAKI GO?" A guy with dark brown hair and a weird jacket with what looked like bagels, two on each side, cried looking around frantically for his ginger pork.
"Shougayaki, I ate it." the girl said.
"NOO!"
"Train! What're you doing here?" Kuro exclaimed standing up and helping the guy up.
"Train?" I stood up too holding onto the couch. HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN BE CRAMMED INTO ONE FREAKING HOUSE!
"Oh, hi Kuro. I didn't expect to see you again" the green haired man said dusting himself off and picking the girl up "Are you ok Eve?"
"I'm fine."
"Oh, uh, Kiako. These guys I met when I was in Tales of Destiny world" Kuro said.
"I'm Train Heartnet!" the guy said happily shaking my hand so hard he was practically flinging me up and down "Nice to meet you!"
"Idiot! That's not how you greet a lady!" the green hair man growled punching Train over the head then professionally shaking my hand "Hello there, I am Sven Vollfied, a gentleman!"
"My name is Eve" the blonde girl said.
"H...Hi. I'm Kiako Ornitier." I said smiling weakly feeling my eye twitch. I can't believe this is happening... AGAIN.
"Hey Kiako what's all the- HOLY SHIT! MORE PEOPLE!" Kel shouted pointing at Train, Sven and Eve. D3pa1 was speechless. Well, for a moment anyway.
"IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!" she shouted happily. Vale was right behind her, and well... Sven was still holding my hand from shaking it and well... Take a wild guess what happened next...
"YOU! YOU ARE ALSO TRYING TO STEAL MY KIAKO AREN'T YOU!" Vale shouted, his eyes fire blazed and he pointed wildly at Sven's face.
"Don't act so boorish!" Sven said slapping Vale's hand away
"I'll duel you for Kiako's love! FIGHT ME NOW YOU GRASS HAIRED MAN!"
"Gentlement usually don't fight, but for you I'll make an exception!" Sven said holding up an attache' suit case.
"Sven! I'm HUNGRY!" Train whimpered hugging Sven around his legs "I want to eat rice balls!"
"Did someone say rice balls?" Heihachi asked peeking from over the stair railing "Oh, hello!" I slapped my forhead. This isn't what I need right now...
"Please don't fight, I'm busy... REALLY BUSY" I said
"Busy? May I ask what business? Perhaps I could help." Sven asked completely ignoring Vale, whom was still fuming and turned on his, Purple fire aura of passion... or doom, I dunno which one suits him more...
"Well, if you can help me make a christmas dinner then yeah, that'd be a great help" I said scratching my head.
"Cooking? Then let me handle it Miss Ornitier!" Sven grinned taking off his hat and coat "Just lead me to the kitchen!"
ʓʓʓ
"Sven, you really didn't have to make so much, and you didn't have to be so fancy" I said staring at the dinner "And, what's with the pink apron?"
"A gentleman must always serve food in the best way possible, and must look formal at the same time" Sven replied fixing his tie.
"Whoa, all right!" Train cheered while Kel and Cliff drooled.
"Food!"
"Wow, this is a feast!" Heihachi grinned
"Yeah no da"
"Well, dig in everyone!"
"Wait, don't we have to carve the turkey?" Vivi asked looking up at everyone.
"I'll do it!" Eve said hopping to where the turkey was
"No Eve, wait, shouldn't Sven-" I couldn't even finish my sentence when the turkey was suddenly torn to ribbons.
"What in the name of all that is holy did she do!" D3pa1 cried pointing at Eve, who's fingers had become sharp blades and her hair into two giant forks.
"Wasn't I useful?" Eve smiled.
"Good job little princess! Now we can eat!" Train said and began loading his plate.
"Wait- How... I don't get it... How did she..." Kel stuttered watching Eve morph her hands and hair back to normal.
"You see, Eve is a bio-machine. She has nano-machines in her body as if it were her blood" Sven said pouring gravy onto his turkey "Because Eve has nano-machines inside of her, she can rearrange the atoms in her body to morph.
"Whoa, that's just...weird..."
"Don't...Underestimate...Little Princess..." Train said in between swallowing his food "She's... a hundred times stronger... then you are"
"...Whatever man..."
"Itadakimatsu!" everyone shouted before diving at the food.
"Hey this is really good," Zero said chewing "Way better then Kiako's cooking"
"Fine then! Go order take out yourself then, I won't cook then." I huffed
"Really? Oh sweet!"
"But I'm not paying for you."
"Cheapskate!"
"Get your own money!"
"Learn to share!"
"Get a job!" Everyone laughed.
"What's so funny?" Zero asked.
"You both fight like a married couple" Kel said. Both Zero and I looked at each other.
"EWWWWW!" we both cried turning away from each other.
"What do you mean 'Ew' no da?" Chichiri asked "I don't understand the looks of disgust on your faces"
"Zero reads hentai." I pointed with a frown "I can't stand hentai..."
"She's fat."
BAM!
"Whoa, nice punch" Sven said looking at the new dent on my wall with an imprint of Zero on it.
"Oww... what...was that... for..." the ninja groaned. I rubbed my knuckles
"That's what you get for calling me fat, I said it before I'm not fat! Just chubby, or pleasantly plump..." I stood up from the table "Well, I think I've eatten enough, see ya"
"Where are you going Kiako-chan?" Heihachi asked nibbling on his spoon.
"I have to practice piano, I have class tomorrow and I have to work" I said and paused at the stairs "Why has everyone stopped eatting?"
"You can play piano?"
"You work?"
"No da?"
"Well, yeah... How else do you think I get money to feed the lot of ya?" I said with a grin "I can take care of myself!" Cliff walked to where I was standing and grasped my shoulder staring me straight in the face with this serious look.
"Kiako..."
"Hm?"
"Are... well..."
"Spit it out." He took a breath.
"Are you a prostitute?" Now it was Cliff Fitter's turn to fly across the room smashing Zero back into the wall.
"Why on earth... are you both such idiots..." I muttered dusting my hands off as I stomped up the stairs.
I seated myself back on the bench and played a few songs that I'm suppose to play for classes. I had only started grade 6 piano, but then here's my friend Kariudo, who's in grade 9 piano! She's a true genius with the piano, she's taken lessons for a shorter period of time then me, I've been taking it almost all of my life! She beats me in piano... and drawing... she draws better then I do... Actually now that I think about it almost everyone draws better then I do...
"Domo Kiako-chan" Heihachi greeted walking into my moms room and looking over my shoulder "Wow, you really can play piano"'
"I'm ok, I'm not that good... Thanks..." I said looking down at my lap feeling myself blush. It was silent for a moment until Heihachi sat beside me.
"So, what do you do for work?" he asked
"I teach piano to little kids" I said "It's, amusing to watch them play"
"Is it hard?"
"Not really, as long as they listen it's actually fun" I smiled "Except these two students I have, one refuses to play and the other acts like he ate chocolate covered coffee beans for breakfast, which is bad since my shift is in the morning"
Heihachi laughed, "Sounds interesting" he rubbed behind his neck sheepishly and...what the heck...is he blushing? "So... If you can teach little children... Then um..."
"Yes?" His face was slowly turning red.
"Well, um..." he quickly took a breath "Could you teach me then?" he suddenly flinched back as if bracing for one of my supreme punches that I gave to Zero and Cliff. I couldn't help but giggle.
"Hei-san..."
"Sorry, I know I must sound dumb. Sorry for being a bother..." Heihachi said standing up.
"No no no! I can teach you! It's just, no one's ever asked me to" I said quickly jumping up after him.
"Are you serious?"
I laughed
"You sound surprised!"
"I am though Kiako-chan, I'm completely surprised with you" Heihachi said and by that look on his face he must've been serious.
"Surprised? With me? I'm just a typical kid, nothing more" I smiled "So, how about them lessons?"
ʓʓʓ
"I GET DIBS NEAR THE TV!" Kel shouted jumping across the living room with his pillow and blanket
"NOT BEFORE I DO!" Zero launched himself after Kel with his pillow tucked under his arm and his blanket around his neck like a cape.
"I beat you both" Eve said sitting in front of the TV.
"Damn..."
"... I GET DIBS ON THE COUCH!"
"You guys are nuts..." Kuro said shaking her head setting her sleeping bag at the side of the room
"Hai hai dattabayo!" I chuckled nodding my head setting up my own little bed.
"Ok, night everyone!"
"Night!" The light went out and quiet took over.
"EEK!"
"ZERO! DON'T GROPE THE GIRLS IN THE DARK YOU PERVERT!"
"BON BON BON BON! I LOVE X-MAS!"
"Kiako, shut up before I BEAT THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF YOU!"
BOOM!
"WAKKA!"
"Opps, I think I blew up the stove ya?"
"Arg, I'm never goingto get sleep at this rate..."
Authors notes: Sorry guys, this would be longer and stuff but I'm like, sick as a zombie right about now... Damn flu... So, yeah. I feel like crap right about now and need more sleep before I collapse... Well, I did go to Seattle. I even bought a Samurai 7 DVD! I'm so happy with it n.n Arg... I hate Heihachi's english voice... Well, see ya.
