Disclaimer: Don't own shit, never will. Rated M because of language and lewd stuff.

Note: I may throw in shit from other manga, anime, video games, books, TV and movies at my leisure. Also, Neko-kun's my little nickname for Kyo-kun 'cuz he's frickin' awesome. Lemonade warning: heavy innuendo for an odd sequence of the story. Kyo/Tohru, Yuki/(surprise), Shigure/(surprise), Haru/Rin. Just read it.

In what seemed like an instant (it was actually three hours) after Kyo and Tohru arrived in front of Yubaba's office, they were dragged in, employed, given new names, and sent to work as tub-scrubbers. This job, surprisingly enough, was dull, and nothing of interest happened for almost three days.

Kyo and Tohru were preparing a bath for a very large earth spirit one day, when Yubaba came in with a third employee, human from the looks of him. "This boy's spirit-master left without him. You two are in charge of keeping him in line. If he doesn't break anything, he can leave with you."

"Hi. I'm Samanosuke Kannichi." The boy was skinny and pale with messy brown hair. His eyes were dull and grey. He looked to be a year or so younger that Kyo or Tohru. Somehow, just by looking at him, they knew that he was going to be a pain.

THAT NIGHT

Tohru and Kyo were rolling around on the bed in their undergarments, making out, rubbing each other all over, panting. Tohru shoved her soft hand into Kyo's boxers. He gasped against her mouth and began rubbing her still-covered chest. Their lips mashed together as they moaned and panted and gasped against each other. Kyo reached around her back, rubbing her pale, soft, sweet skin, and unclasped her bra. She threw it off, separating their lips for but a moment. Kyo's hands now did double time on her chest. Tohru gasped hard, leaning back, then bit Kyo hard on the neck. His back arched into her as he shouted in ecstasy.

Tohru was breathing hard, covered in sweat. She stared into Kyo's emerald eyes and said "Take me."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! AAAHHHH! AAAHHH! AAAHHHHH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Yuki screamed for a full minute. He looked around. It was just a dream. "Wha… where the fuck did THAT come from?" he asked himself. He heard snoring and looked down. Sharing his bed, found to be buck naked, was… "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FUCKING BED YOU SICK SON-OF-A-BITCH! WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE, AAYA!"

Shigure shot up. He had been having those weird double dreams again. Jayzus C. Frog, why would Yuki dream of Tohru and Kyo together, then wake up and find Aayame in his bed? Augh. He needed serious help. "Yes, you do." He heard. He turned around and found Hatori behind him, nude and massaging his back. He then muttered, "Oh, come on. That's just too silly."

"But it is a good dream." Hatori whispered seductively, licking his earlobe. Shigure gave him an odd look.

Hatsuharu stretched and yawned. "Damn. Is this reality, or just another dream in this weird chain?" He twitched, and saw Rin next to him.

"Good to see you awake again. Ready for round two?" she said simply, licking her lips. Haru grinned and mounted her immediately.

Kyo awoke with a start. He looked around. He was in the bath house servants' quarters. Tohru was in the girls' half of the quarters, safely behind the rice-paper wall. Nobody else around could possibly be in any type of romantic or sexual situation with him. He wiped the sweat off of his head. Suddenly, the wall slid open, and Tohru stepped through. Kyo immediately thought that the dream cycle was still going. Tohru said, "Hey, Kyo? Are you awake?"

"I don't know. I might be. Why?"

"I couldn't sleep, and I was wondering…" Oh no. 'Here comes the killer' thought Kyo. "C-c-c-could you play a game or two of blackjack with me?" Kyo's jaw dropped. He was certainly awake.

"That's it," he said, "Last time I eat wasabi and shrimp before bed. Tohru, you're on." Several hours later, Tohru smiled and thanked Kyo. She walked towards the girls' half of the sleeping quarters, but hesitated. She went back and gave Kyo a kiss on the cheek, then went to bed, quite happy. Both she and Kyo blushed brightly. For some reason, this simple act made Kyo feel very warm inside. The deck of playing cards returned to the abyss from whence they came.

The next day, Kyo woke up to Samanosuke sitting at his feet, just staring. "Whoa… what are you doing there? I mean, you're creepin' the hell outta me." Samanosuke smiled and ran off. Something was weird about that kid. A few hours into the day's work, the strange boy began talking with Kyo and Tohru. All he talked about was how nobody liked him even though he had a max-level character in every MMO game ever and knew everything about every trading card game, MMO or pen and paper RPG. Within three days, (the fourth of the seven days they were here with the Cat spirit), even Tohru was getting short tempered and unforgiving with him. And when Tohru gets snippy and truly, truly hateful of someone, she is SCARY. She is like Kagura in a bad mood meets Rin during that time of the month meets pissed off Akito.

Just after Samanosuke had finished talking to her about some minor sci-fi MMORPG, when a minor mud-demon entered. He looked similar to Jabba the Hutt and equally appetizing. When he began making advances on Tohru, his attendant for the time being, she ripped his head off and jammed it in the water pipe. By the sixth day, Kyo was putting rat-traps in Samanosuke's bedroll and Tohru was rigging a large guillotine blade to drop on him. However, on the seventh day, Yubaba called them to her. Cat-dono and Demon-san had left minutes ago, and the three of them were to leave.

"Now, if you ever desire to leave, you cannot look back towards the bathhouse until you are beyond my borders. That clear? Now go on, git!" Kyo and Tohru dashed away as fast as they could, leaving Samanosuke dazed. They thought they had left him behind when…

"Wait! Hold up!" Samanosuke shouted as he chased the two.

Kyo looked back and rolled his eyes. "Tohru. Come here for a second," he said, and whispered something in her ear. She nodded.

"Thank goodness I caught you. Let's all get out of here together," the pest said as they all walked away from the bath house. Tohru was anxious. Kyo was impatient. He needed the perfect moment to enact his plan. Eventually they all reached the peak of a high hill. Kyo grinned slightly. It was time. He faked glancing back for a moment.

"Yubaba sent something after us! RUN!" he shouted. Tohru dashed off without a glance, as did Kyo. Samanosuke turned around, expecting to see an oncoming horde. He felt something grab at him, as he began flying off back towards the bath house. He landed at Yubaba's feet, confused.

"What? There was nothing coming after us. Why did they…" A thought came to his head. "Those fucking assholes. They tricked me!"

"Yes. And because you fell for it, now you are stuck here for all eternity as my servant!"

"Shit."

Yay! It's the end n' stuff! Now for viewer mail. Thanks to everyone who reviewed. Please do so again.

Snowboarder67: Yes, spirited away. Thank you for the compliments, but don't you mean "good"? The only god I like is a god game like Black and White or Spore.

Isuzu-Hanabi-Chan: Thank you for reading. I'll keep on writing.

I-luv-kyo-kun: Thanks. Just keep checking in for updates or put me on alert. Or while you wait, read some of my other stuff.

Element'ice: It's not BASED on spirited away. It's not based on anything. It crosses into the Spirited Away world, but that's only a bit of side-story.

ShikaRox: Thanks a lot. BTW, this chapter is the last one related to Spirited Away. And I'm glad you see Tohru and Kyo together. And don't we all feel sorry for Neko-kun?
