House of Applesauce
Summary: Have you ever wondered what it would be like to eat applesauce night and day? Yusuke and the gang find out when they get locked inside a house full of it. The only way out is to eat all of it. The problem, they have to finish it in two weeks. R&R bye!
Chapter 1: Apples are good, but Bakas aren't
On top of a hill sits a house. It's not an ordinary house though. It's part of an old plantation famous for apples. This is where four people stood, the spirit detectives.
"What was the mission again?" asked Kuwabaka, I mean bara.
"Koenma just said to check the place out, starting from the inside"
He blinked and stood there as the others walked in.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
Yusuke shook his head, "Baka"
As soon as they were all inside, the door slammed shut.Kuwabara started to scream like the big baby he is. Kurama, being smart, tried to open it, but it was locked. Yusuke swore loudly. Suddenly a voice called out.
"Welcome to my home."
Kuwabara – who had stopped screaming about the time Yusuke swore- started to scream again.
"who are you?" asked the ever so smart Kurama.
"No one of importance my dear kitsune. No one important at all. Just an observer"
"What do you want?"
" To see if you can live and escape. This house is full of one food, well, actually two, but they fit into the same category. Oh well. If you don't eat it all within two weeks, you shall perish!"
Their mouths dropped and all was silent until Yusuke spoke up.
"What kind of food? Apples?"
The voice laughed, "In a sense. People that have survived this house gave it a name. Try to guess it will you. It amuses me so."
"Are we ever going to meet you?" asked Kuwabara stupidly.
"Yes, either before you leave, or before you die"
That did it. Kuwabara fainted right then and there.
"looks like the human couldn't stand the thought of death."
Hiei started to pull his ward off from his Jagan, but was stopped.
"Don't try it Forbidden One, you cannot find me. It is impossible. Besides, there are wards all over the place."
He grumbled as he put it back on.
"good boy. Now find your rooms or do whatever. The only drinks here are water, coke, and milk. The door to the kitchen is to your left. I'll be watching all the time!"
With that said, the voice shut up. The boys toured the two-story house carefully. Kuwabara was left in the living room, just now waking up.
Yusuke –being the 'bravest' of them all – was the first to head upstairs. Only one door was locked. He swore. Kurama came up the stairs unnoticed.
"What's wrong Yusuke?"
Yusuke jumped and whirled around, "Don't do that!"
"I'm sorry, but I'll ask again if I have to"
"Stupid door is locked, maybe the weirdo is in there"
They once more heard the 'creepy' and cheerful voice.
"That room has nothing but weapons, deadly animals, and more"
"How do you keep the animals alive?"
"Feed them leftovers, the remains of past victims, and every now and then a bird or live creatures"
"There is no smell of blood"
"They eat the food whole"
Once more the voice disappeared.
"Well, that doesn't help anything. I'm sleeping downstairs" stated Yusuke.
"Hn. The bedrooms are all up here detective"
This made Yusuke jump and whirl around again. Somehow, he didn't hit the wall. He gave Hiei a glare.
"Jumpy aren't we Yusuke" This time, Kurama was graced with the glare.
"Shut up"
Kuwabara then ran up the stairs and somehow didn't fall back down them.
"Hey guys! The only food here is applesauce!"
Yusuke started laughing, " Good one Kuwabara!"
"Oh yeah? Well, just follow me?"
They did (even though Hiei tried not to). He showed them that he was right. The refridgerator was full of apples and applesauce, the cabnits had bowls cups napkins, towels, and……..a whole lotta spoons.
Yusuke's mouth dropped. For once, the baka was right! They stared at the spoons (Kuwabara swore that they were staring back). They outnumbered everything put together!
Kurama and Hiei were the first to look away and Yusuke was the first to speak.
"Why are there more spoons then anything?"
No one answered. The voice decided to grace them once more.
"Wrongo hanyou. There are more apples and applesauce in the basement"
"How is that possible?" (Kuwabara)
"It's like a very large fridge so you don't have to worry about being too hot"
"You mean that the basement is a fridge and a huge air conditioner?" (wow, Kuwabara said a big word)
"Yeppers. Now you'd better get a snack or eat dinner before you go to bed!"
They sweatdropped as the voice 'disappeared' into 'nothingness', but they did as it said. At 10:30 P.M. they went to bed.
In the Barn
She turned to the shadow in the corner, taking her pendant off. A screen behind her showed the boys.
"Are you sure about this?"
He stepped out and into the light. His scarf (or is it a capes?) flowed at every step. He gave her a short nod.
"Yes Sakura. I'm very sure"
"Is the death threat going to be carried out if they do not complete the task?"
"No, they'll just have to work harder"
She smirked and nodded.
"Anything else you wish me to do tonight my lord?"
"No, get some rest for tomorrow"
She bowed as he left. This is going to be interesting, she thought, very interesting.
She laid down on her mattress he had set for her, covered up, and drifted off to sleep.
