Me: -.- What part of, 'No-you-people-may-not-kill-Derek-or-seriously-injure-him' are you guys not getting?
Ariel: It's called selective reading. All you gotta do is take out the 'no' and the 'not' and you get 'you-people-may-kill-Derek-or-seriously-injure-him'
Me: Shut up you. Don't go putting ideas into their heads.
Dream State: (shit, I'm gonna really hate typing this, but it must be done)
Kenshin and Derek were in the middle of a vicious sword battle, both seriously hurt, with a half-dead Nikki, struggling for every breath, sitting helplessly watching the battle. They both charge in for the final blow.
"GUYS! STOP IT!" Nikki yells, standing up, struggling to keep her balance. They both ignore her and continue with the charge.
"STTTTOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPP!" Nikki runs in between the two and they both end up running her through, Kenshin through the front, and Derek through the back. She falls over, dead and limp, the only thing holding her body up was the swords stabbing through her...
Dream State End:
Shannon bolts up from her dream, crying and covered with sweat.
"Sissy," she whimpers, "Sissy!" she says a little louder this time. Shannon throws the covers off her and runs into Nikki's room, where Nikki was sitting at her desk, doing some work on her laptop.
"Sissy." Shannon whimpers again, standing in the doorway and twirling a piece of her hair with one of her tiny fingers. Nikki looks up from what she was working on, a startled look on her face.
"Shannon, Angel, it's 2:30 in the morning. What are you doing up?" Nikki scoops the frightened child up in her arms and sits down on the bed, wrapping Shannon in her fuzzy light purple bathrobe. Shannon whimpers and begins playing with Nikki's braid.
"What's on your mind hun?" Nikki asks again, stroking the child's hair.
"I had a scary dream Sissy."
"Oh? Go on. You'll feel much better when you tell me about it." Shannon lets out another small whimper and nods.
"Kenny-san and Nii-san were fighting and you tried to stop them and they hurt you really, really bad."
"Is that it sweetheart?"
"It was really scary Sissy." Nikki kisses the girl on the top of her head and begins cradling her in her arms.
"Don't worry sweetie," Nikki whispers, "It was just a dream. I'm here, I'm fine and Kenshin and Nii-san never would fight. Don't worry."
"What's going on in here?" Spatial asks, walking in the room, rubbing sleep from her eyes.
"Someone had a bad dream."
"Oh really?" Shannon meekly nods. Spatial sits down beside Nikki and Shannon and soothingly rubs the child's back.
"Tell ya what," she says, "Sissy's busy tonight, so why don't you and I go climb into bed together and watch a movie. Kay? Maybe that'll help with the dreams a little. Ya think?" Shannon smiles at Spatial.
"You mean it?"
"Of course I do."
"Okay!" Shannon jumps into Spatial's arms and Spatial picks her up, smiling at Nikki.
"Thank-you." Nikki mouths to her. Spatial smiles and nods, carrying Shannon back to her bedroom. Nikki stretches and lets out a huge yawn. Honestly, the things children dream up. She walks over to her desk and begins her work again on the laptop. What she didn't say, let alone want to think about, was the fact that Shannon's dream disturbed her, just a little.
'Children, so innocent, so pure.' Nikki jumps at the sound of the voice coming from inside her.
"Isabella?"
'Yes?'
"Uh, nothing."
'My Shinata loved children.'
"Shinata?"
'My husband's name.'
"Oh."
'You should get some sleep. There are dark circles forming under your eyes. I see them when you look in the mirror.'
"I'm fine."
'You've barely been alive for a whole month and already you're pushing your body's limits. What, with you planning on taking a part time job soon, you'll work yourself to death.'
"How did you know about that?"
'I see what you see, I can see your thoughts as well.'
"Part of the possession contract, eh?"
'Heh, si.' Nikki sighs and shuts off the laptop.
"Good old Spanish lingo. G'night Isabella."
'Good night Nikki-san.'
The next morning...
Kaoru had her head stuck in her locker, repeatedly slamming the door on her head.
"Kao, what are you doing?" Battousai asks, ripping the locker door from her hand before she gave herself a concussion.
"Trying to kill my self." she mutters back.
"And why would my little raccoon be trying to kill herself?"
"Because said little raccoon feels like shit and is ready to blow chunks at any moment now." A few students who had heard this backed away.
"Ohayo Battousai, Ohayo Kaoru-dono." Kenshin walks up to them, as perky as ever. Kaoru glares at him.
"I will never understand you." she says, taking the locker door and resuming the head slamming.
"Hey Jou-chan!" Sanouske calls from the other side of the hallway, "Save a couple for me, will ya?"
"SHIT! COLD! COLD, COLD, COLD!" Nikki comes dashing in the hallway and immediately jumps on Kenshin, her lips blue from the unexpectedly cold weather that had crept up on Tokyo overnight.
"Nikki-dono? What are you doing." Nikki climbs off Kenshin's back and wraps herself in the trenchcoat he was wearing that day.
"Don't be mean, share." she tells him, "I woke up late this morning and in my rush, I forgot to bring a coat. Not to mention I had to take Shannon to school."
"Nice Nikki, seeing as you're only wearing a miniskirt and a T-shirt with a white mesh jacket over it."
"Don't forget the boots." she tells Battousai.
"Oh heavens yes!" he exclaims in this girly voice, "Let us not forget the boots! The most important part of the whole outfit!"
"If I wasn't so damn cold, I'd punch you right now."
In English...er Japanese...
"WHAT?" Nikki yells when they get their latest test scores back, "I got a C! That's unpossible!" Spatial cracks up at the little joke Nikki made.
"I'm very surprised that only one of you guys got an A." the teacher says, "And that person happened to be Sanouske."
"HUH!" the whole class yells in unison. Kaoru looks at Sanouske.
"HE CHEATED!" some random student yells.
"Actually, I just doodled." he holds up his paper and you see a smiley face made out of the bubbles that you shade in for your answer. Kaoru resumes slamming her head on her desk. Nikki grabs Kaoru by the ponytail and lifts her head up.
"Kao, hun, you're losing brain cells."
"I don't give a flyin fuck."
"So Nikki," Spatial asks, "How'd ya get a C? I mean, I got a D...and god knows I'm smarter than you."
"I did eeny-meeny-miney-moe." (Me: IT WORKS! I SWEAR IT DOES! I did it for the OGT test prep and I got all of em right! How crazy is that!)
(-.-) (Spatial)
"Shit," Kaoru bolts up, "Trashcan!" Kaoru runs up to the front of the room and grabs the trashcan and throws up, while running to the nearest girl's bathroom.Nikki raises her hand.
"Speaking of blowing chunks," she says to the teacher, "I have a joke about that! Can I tell it...puhleeeeeassse!" The teacher sighs.
"Fine."
"Yay! Okay, this guy walks into a bar. The bartender hands him a Bud Light and says, 'Here ya go.' The guy tells him, 'Sorry, I don't drink beer. I had twelve shots of it last night and it made me blow chunks.' So the bartender handed him a Miller Light then and the guy said, 'No. What part of beer making me blow Chunks don't you get? Chunks is my dog!" The whole class burst out laughing.
(-.-) (Teacher)
Me: And so, I leave you at that. It's a really nice joke, I have another one too. I'll tell it at another time in another chappie. Review responses...Also, reminding you people there is an influenza of the flu going around our high school and I oh so stupidly picked up...fair warning, when I'm sick, I'm pissed 24/7 so keep the insults to a minimum.
Spatial- NO YOU MAY NOT! (Takes the pencil and breaks it) And I told you the symbol had to involve a rose! (slams hand down on the table, accidentally flipping your spork in the air) Derek: GAAAAH! MY EYE! Me: Shit! (Runs off to help Derek get the spork out of his eye)

blueangel-maggie1723- Angel: Oh my god! Lou-san! I'm so so so sorry! Me: Angel, why? You didn't do it. Angel: But I could've stopped it! Me: (sighs) Never mind. And can I use 'phreety?' Purty please? And I don't know if I'd call myself 'sane' ...sigh...still low-self esteem issues, thanks to Devil. Devil: NO! Wait! I just remembered! I don't have low self-esteem, I HAVE LOW BLOOD SUGAR! (Passes out flat on her face) Me: Okay then, let's pretend we didn't see that. And yes, Nikki took a pic of Batts giving Kaoru a goodnight kiss on her camera phone, hence the chasing. And Derek would seriously kill his sis, (evil grin) if I made him, which I won't, cause I'm not that evil. SWEET! (accidentally slams her hand down on a pencil, flipping it in the air) Derek: GAAAAH! MY EYE! Me: Oops, LOL. Second time I've done that.
Reignashii- (blinks)Uh, you just figured out that all this is is randomness? And yes, Nikki took a picture on her camera phone of Batts giving Kao a goodnight kiss, hence the chasing at the end of chappie 12. HAHAHAHAHA!

Jou-chan- Erm, Kenshin really didn't say much...all he thought was "Why am I here again? Wait, it looks like something important's going on...better pay attention." So there ya have it. And about the review...don't worry! Just do whatever you wanna do whenever...I'll just beat my frustration out on my bro.
