Disclaimer: How many times do I have to post this? I don't own saint seiya.
Yoruichi: Sorry for the wait, I had a TON of homework piled up on me PLUS I wanted to do a longer chapter… I'm dragging this story out for too long. And thank you to those who understood about my 'condition'. But I'm still like that (but better) and I'm afraid that my updates will still take some time.
Also, I think my writing style is going away… This is the best I could write from this chapter. I'm sorry if this chapter was a little upsetting to my reviewers that I'm –AGAIN- writing like this but I cant help it. And in life, you'll probably read tons of books with other writing formats and styles so you've got to get used to them.
Enjoy this –longer- chapter.
-------------------------------------------
Saga quickly dragged himself off the floor and realized something mighty beastly but very lucky, in this case, too. "Saori-Sama! I think I sprained something!" Saga called out after the goddess. It took sheer seconds to take the goddess running back to the Gemini temple. Saga smiled at how lucky he was today, but I doubt that I'd be this lucky when it came to the real day of Athena's birthday.
Since Mu had nothing better to do, he thought that he'd try to think of something for entertainment. "What do you guys think we should do to entertain Athena?" He asks blindly. "Ummm… Limbo?" Aioria suggests. "Aioria, you're so much of a game-person! But I'll give it some thought." He responds. "Oooh! What about… Pin the tail on the fish?" Aphrodite asked. "There's no such thing." Every gold saint in the group replied. "Fine. What do they normally do at parties anyways?" Aphrodite asked. "I have no idea." Mu replies. "But I don't think that she'd enjoy games for little kids… Maybe something more… Professional? Maybe just talking." Mu shrugs his shoulders. "Wow. That was random." Aioria acquires. "But if you say so… We could try that out, and if she gets bored, then we'll switch to limbo!" Aioria exclaimed, throwing his hands up into the air. "YAY FOR LIMBO!" Some of the other gold saints shouted after Aioria. Mu just stared. "You're a bunch of kids… Even Kiki wouldn't want Limbo…Anyways, where IS Kiki?" Mu blinks. "That kid? I don't know. He's probably…" Aioria grinned and glanced at his comrades. "LIMBOING!" They all shouted at once except Aioros and Mu. "You know, it's been a while since we let out our real selves… When seiya and everyone first tried to go through sanctuary, MAN, we had to act so mature!" Aioria did a high five with Shura. ,
Aldebaran was cherry-red as strangers laughed at him, wearing his grass skirt. "…" I wish I hadn't left Sanctuary! Aldebaran was watched by dozens of girls. "Uh... You know, there's a man here on this beach with more buff!" Aldebaran declares. "Oooh? Who?" The girls all turned to him. "Over there!" Aldebaran pointed at the men's change room and all of the girls went rushing towards it. But the man they saw inside was not full of buff. He was wearing glasses, taped on with tape and was quite skinny with big shorts. He smiled a mouth full of braces and cavities. The girls screamed at the top of their lungs. "AAAAAAAAAAUGH!" "Alright…" Aldebaran said as he instantly teleported himself before any of the girls had awoken from their faint.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!" Seiya screamed as Aldebaran appeared in a grass skirt. "AAAAAAAAAH!" Aldebaran screamed back. "What's wro- OH MY GODDESS!" Shun proclaimed. "GET SOME CLOTHES! SHEESH!" Ikki advised rather rudely. "I get it… I get it…" Aldebaran sighed as he teleported himself to his own temple.
The bronze saints started to paint the temple walls. "Hey, are we painting the walls, too?" Seiya asked, confused. "We're doing the floors and the walls…" Shun replied.
"Hm… It's pink alright, but it's so sticky!" Seiya turned to the rest of the group but his back touched the paint because he lost balance and leaned back. "…Guys?" Seiya's ladder fell right off. "GUYS? I'M STUCK!" He cried. "Oh wow, surprise, surprise. It WAS glue." Ikki stated triumphantly. "Well? What now?" Seiya dangled. "Well, don't try anything stupid…" Shun said. "We know that… Who can get this superglue off?" The bronze saints all wondered. "Who can…? Break it?" Hyoga asked. "You can't break glue." Ikki snapped. "Oh, yes you can, when you freeze it!" Hyoga ran out of the temple to get Camus. The other bronze saints all threw each other unsure glances. Oh, no, an adult. They'll get in trouble. "We'll get in trouble!" Seiya screamed. "Too late." Hyoga appeared with Camus and he seemed quite disappointed. Minutes later, Camus had frozen the glue. "Why don't you… Let us help?" He suggested, smashing the iced glue. "I guess we have no choice!" Seiya said as he fell to the ground, face flat on the floor. "First, we have to get some proper paint." Shun said. "I'm on it." Shiryuu disappeared and appeared again with buckets of pink paint. "Don't worry, I paid." He said.
In no time at all, the walls were being painted. "I'm glad I got you to help us!" Hyoga laughed. Ikki punched Hyoga in the back, causing him to fall off his ladder, landing right on his face. "Ooooooow." Hyoga was hit by other several paint-buckets as the floors were completed. Surprisingly, everyone managed well. "I guess we did it! We started from one end and worked our way through!" Seiya picked his nose. Everyone stared. "Great. Now his nose is pink." Camus said. And yup, he was right; seiya's left nostril was painted pink. "Why don't us all… Wash our hands…" Seiya was too shocked to say anything else. "And wash your nose, too!" Shura cried as Seiya ran out of the room. "Actually, we didn't get dirty, only the boys did." Kannon looked at his own hands, and they were clean. "I guess you're right… Hyoga! Clean yourself!" Camus pointed at the 'pink' Hyoga. "I have an idea, Hyoga, come outside." Shun motioned and Ikki came with them, because he got paint all over his hair. "Wow." Camus nodded for no reason. "This fanfic is getting random." Kiki said as he appeared out of nowhere. "Shhhh! We're not supposed to say that!" Mu warned, putting his finger to his lips. "Yeah, where WERE you?" Shura whispered. "I played Limbo." Kiki replied, in a whispering tone. "…" Mu turned extremely red as everyone in the room laughed.
SPLASH! Shun poured a bucket of clean water over his friends. They were shivering, but at least the paint was gone. Now he had to stop the two from sneezing, but Ikki was red with rage. "…" He stormed back into the room, dripping wet. "Uh…" Shun knew that his brother had a loud sneeze. Hyoga covered his eyes. "He's going to sneeze!" Shun glanced at him and gave Hyoga a towel, which was one of the things Shiryu sihpped out. Then he covered his ears. Hyoga dried himself up as soon as he received the towel.
"You know, it looks a bit… Plain." Kiki said, and Aioria stood up, after teasing Mu. "You're right. Just plain pink is not enough." And it was then, that after he finished his sentence, that Ikki sneezed, for he was in the temple. ACHOOOO! His sneeze curled winds over the room and it was like a mini-tornado and melting some paint with the warm winds. Everyone just stared; surprised that Ikki didn't shoot out any snot. "That's his talent… When we were in the orphanage, he won a talent show, sneezing and not spilling snot." Shun shrugged as the gold saints turned to him. After Ikki sneezed, he decided to go back out. He grabbed a towel. "This is hard work, isn't it?" He dried himself up.
"…Do you think Ikki's sneeze did something to the walls?" Shaka whispered. No one dared turn and look at the walls. Aphrodite was the first to turn and look at the walls, they were HIS. "Oh… My… God…" Everyone turned and saw the walls. It was a brilliant pink with swirls of all kinds; it was a breathtaking indoor sight. "Wow…" Seiya stepped into the Pisces temple, admiring the walls. "I think Ikki did that on purpose." Seiya stated thoughtfully. "Let's ask him." He said, "Uhh… You can do that. We'll stay here." The gold saints replied, thinking that this was no big event. "It's like you guys think that nothing is important…" Seiya said as he walked over to Ikki in a stride. He had washed off the pink and was a little wet over the chest, too. Why? Because he was frantically splashing water onto himself for the last couple of minutes to get the paint off.
"Yo, Ikki!"
"What?"
"You know about your sneeze?"
"I know what you're going to say, I ruined everything, right?"
"No! But… I guess that means you didn't do it on purpose." Seiya shrugged and left.
"Do what on purpose?" Ikki asked himself, blinking in confusion.
"What's this button here?" Alphrodite asked himself as he pushed some buttons on the vacuum cleaners. "NO! DON'T TOUCH THAT!" Seiya cried. "Why?" Aphrodite was curious. Apparently, he didn't know a thiung about vacuum cleaners. "Oh… You touched it…" Seiya backed out. "Hm?" Aphrodite still didn't know. Then, a great gust of wind came thundering out of the cleaners. Roses fled everywhere and everywhere indeed. "AUGH!" Aphrodite ran against the wind to the vacuum cleaner and pressed the button again. The room cleared and everyone turned to the temple. "Wow. This is awesome." Aioria said. The room was filled with roses, surprisingly; they stayed intact during the winds. "And you told me not to touch that button!" Aphrodite laughed at Seiya and Seiya chuckled a bit. "Hehe… Yeah…" Everyone outside the temple clapped. "ACHOO!" This time, it was Hyoga's turn to sneeze like crazy. Shun patted his back and Ikki did too.
"So I need some strawberry ice-cream, vanilla and some chocolate." Milo said, still a bit freaked out. "Coming right up!" DeathMask went into the storage room and came out with boxes of ice-cream. "And I'm guessing that we'll need a lot, you know, for banana splits, smoothies…" DeathMask wiped some ice-cream off his forehead as he set the heavy boxes of ice-cream in front of Milo. "Wow! You actually learned some stuff here!" Milo picked up the ice-cream but almost dropped them. "Woah! These are cold!" Milo rubbed his hands together. "Duh, dudette… If they aren't cold, why would it be called 'ICE' cream?" A guy sitting at the back of the room rolled his eyes. Milo could see that it was a teenager, wearing strict black everywhere. "That kid's calling me a 'dudette' when he's wearing EYELINER!" Milo wanted to punch the guy in the face, but he knew that then he'd get in trouble. He sighed. "Here's the money, DeathMask…" Milo had some trouble, but he eventually got something onto the cahier desk. "You're g giving me a wet handkerchief?" DeathMask chuckled. "You're passing that much ice-cream for this?"
"Hush… That's not what I meant to do!" Milo tried to back himself up. Busted… "Really? Well then, show me to money that you have. How ironic, it's really you paying for the tuxedos. The shop owner says that he'll split the pay 50/50. Plus the pay I'm getting for each of my zombies…" DeathMask laughed. Milo cursed. "I'll get you back for this…" He put the money, which was a lot, onto the cashier desk, then he teleported to the Pisces temple.
When Milo appeared at the temple, the paint had dried and he was also very pleased with the walls. "Where's your fridge?" Milo's hands were shaking from the coldness of the ice-cream. "Oh, we have yet to move that in." Aphrodite answered, admiring his nails. Milo gasped loudly. "SOMEBODY HELP ME HOLD THIS DARNED ICE-CREAM!" He shouted, though it was more like a scream. Mu sighed and the ice-cream floated in mid air and over to the unplugged fridge. "The paint's pretty much dried now… We used super-drying paint so somebody go plug in the fridge." He said lazily. "I'll go." Aphrodite carried the fridge with impressive strength and teleported into his temple. There he set his fridge on the floor and plugged it in. "The paint's still wet…" He said, touching the sludgy liquid on the walls. "Great…" The pattern was smudged now. There was a big hole in the swirls pattern with the roses where Aphrodite had touched it. He didn't dare tell anybody. Nobody will notice it… It's so small. So Aphrodite just walked back outside. "People? Help me with the rest of this." He pointed at the furniture and antiques. "But you have so much!" The saints complained; "But then we can't have Camus roll it all inside with an ice cube…" They realized. "Fine." Hyoga was the first to volunteer, throwing the towel back. "AHEM." Aphrodite reminded. "Right." Yoga rolled his eyes and picked up the towel. Then he picked up a chair and a small stool and headed inside. "I'll help." Ikki said, careful not to let the towel fall. "But you DO have to do some cleaning after this party, oh, by the way, are you good with it?" Ikki asked. It'd be horrible if Aphrodite had backed out now and Ikki almost regretted asking the cursed question. "No." Aphrodite replied blankly. Everyone did an anime-style fall. "Just kidding! It hasn't been a while since I had my temple redecorated… And what's best, there are people helping me!" Aphrodite laughed.
Aldebaran took off the little grass skirt and silently vowed never to go on vacation again. "I guess I'm not needed." He sighed and sank into his red armchair by his fireplace. This would've been a nice, warm setting if Gemini's temple wasn't right next to his…
"Why is this all happening?" Saori wondered out loud. She was bandaging Saga's ankle. "Well, I'm glad that at least this doesn't stink." She said. Saga was ashamed that his foot was out in the open and Athena was bandaging it. "I-I-I d-don't k-know… T-today must b-be unlucky." Saga stammered as his face turning into several different shades of red. "Well, you're better now, and I have to go get the roses." The goddess said as she rose to her feet off of the chair. "And you." She pointed at Saga's forehead. "Is… Definetly weird today." She smiled. Then she headed for the exit of the temple and she was lucky that she stepped past the rubber ducky. Saga had come over his humiliation and shock. "C-can I come?" He asked. "I don't see why not." Saori replied, waiting at the exit for Saga. Saga quickly put on his shoes, (note that he's not wearing his gold armor at the instant. Some gold saints are wearing them and some aren't. The bronze saints are DEFINETLY not wearing their armor.) And hurried to where Saori was. His ankle didn't hurt at all and the two headed for the Pisces temple. I've gotta think of something to make her turn back! Saga was worried a lot as it is, but the worst thing is, Saori kept talking to him and destroying his concentration. "This is taking forever… Why don't you do us a favor and teleport us to the temple?" Saori asked. Saga could only nod 'yes' because it wouldn't be nice to say 'no' to a goddess. "Darn… We're here…" Saga said to himself quietly. He glanced at the goddess and she seemed extremely happy and content as the Pisces temple came into view.
"WHAT?" Kiki pointed at the fast approaching Saga and Athena. "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it…" Saga mouthed out the words solemnly as the two was 'forced' closer by Athena. "HERE!" Milo threw a block of ice-coffin ice and it hit Saga. "Ooops! Athena! Saga's out cold! Help him!" Milo screamed like a little teenage Japanese schoolgirl. "Oh, no!" Saori looked beside her and saw, yes, Saga was out cold. "Saga!" She started shaking him frantically. "Uhhh I'll teleport you guys back to the Gemini temple!" Milo didn't wait for any answer and he teleported the two. "Phew! That was close!" Milo turned back to his friends. "I don't think you should've done that." Kannon said. Milo blinked. "Why?"
"SAGA?" Saori screamed as Saga awoke and laughed evilly in the Gemini temple. "HAHAHAHA!" He started to throw things around like a madman on the loose. Although he was just throwing pillows, and Saori was shocked that he had such a collection. "Saga? What's gotten into you?" Saori asked, trying to find a safe spot to hide. "Well… I feel that I haven't been evil at all and… I THINK I SHOULD BE EVEN MORE EVIL NOW!" He cackled. Hunh? Wait… A knock on the head, and he's like this… And he wasn't exactly himself either today… Amnesia! Athena figured it out and slapped herself on the forehead. "And I'm the goddess of wisdom!" She stood and grabbed an alarm clock. "Here!" She threw and smashed the alarm clock onto Saga's head. The alarm clock broke with a RIIIIINNNNEEEERRRRGGGG BOOM! "That sound was so random…" Athena said to herself. "Uh?" Saga shook his head rapidly after the impact then stared at Athena and the room. "What happened?" He asked. Then Athena hugged him. "Oh, Saga… I think I like you like this." She said. "I know very well that you will never find happiness like this, though…" She said. "What?" Saga didn't understand a thing, but his face turned so red from the embrace that it was almost purple. ((Author's note: I am NOT trying to pair Athena up with Saga!))
"Let's get back to work, fast. The sun's setting. And tomorrow is THE PARTY ." Shura said through gritted teeth. "Right." And then, everyone got to work.
Mu still couldn't figure out what to do to entertain everyone at the party. "What do you think, Kiki? And DON'T say 'Limbo'." He said. "Limbo." Kiki replied. "Damn." Mu covered his face in his hands. "This is… So freaky!" Kiki petted him on the back and Mu sweat dropped. "It's like you're my mom." Mu said. Kiki twitched and quickly withdrew his hand. "I'll never go near you again, you WRONG person…" He joked. But seeing that Mu wouldn't budge, he noticed that he must've had a bad day. Camus just placed his statue in place in the centre of the room and went to the kitchen, coughing as he entered. "Hey? Oh. Bye." He knew that he wasn't needed with the sight of Aioria mixing Vinegar with baking soda again. Then came a loud screech and a bowl dropping. Camus went a little further away from the kitchen in case the kitchen would explode again. "Oh, thank god!" He sighed in relief when it didn't. And everyone could hear that Aioros was yelling at Aioria.
"This has happened AGAIN." Aioros said, pacing back and forth in front of Aioria. "AGAIN. Why is it, that when I tell you that something is wrong, you just go and do it again? You're not a kid anymore! And when I yell at you, and I will repeat this for the zillionth time, I MEAN YOU GOOD! And you? You just do everything again and give me that SAME blank stare. And the freakiest part is- that you don't even know if you did something wrong! DID YOU OR NOT DO SOMETHING WRONG?" Aioros asked with a face red with anger. "No." Aioria replied, grabbing the vinegar again. "Don't touch that." Aioros took the vinegar and chucked it into the garbage. "We don't need it. Now let's get cooking…" Aioria was stunned. "Did you forget?" He asked, but soon regretted it. "Oh, yes!" Aioros turned around. "AND YOU DON'T? I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH YOU! …" He sighed. "Let's forget about this. I don't want to shout anymore." Aioros immediately took out the flour and eggs and other baking ingredients again. "Y-yes, brother." Aioria said obediently, thinking that his brother is insane.
"Wow." Aldebaran could hear the commotion all the way from his temple. "I guess I should get there." So he rose to his feet and teleported to the Pisces temple. When he got there, he saw that everyone was as busy as ever. This was NOT what he was expecting. "Uhhh… Hi?" He said, but no one noticed.
"YES!" Shura cheered happily as a delivering boy delivered his food. "This is going to rock!" He put all of the food into the fridge and set out the tables for the party. Then Shura noticed Aldebaran. "Hey, Alde. You could help out in the kitchen if you have nothing to do." He said. "Oh, okay." So Aldebaran headed towards the kitchen and opened the door. "Hi." He said. "Oi." Aioros greeted but didn't bother to turn to his friend. He was busy mixing. "Hi." Aioria showed some manners and smiled at Aldebaran. "We seriously need some help, some help looking after Aioria. Can you do that please, Aldebaran?" Aioros asked, still keeping his back turned. "Of course." Aldebaran grabbed a chair and just stared at Aioria.
"Staring contest, Aldebaran?"
"You're on, kid!"
Milo stole some food from the refrigerator and just supervised everyone. "Well, this is going to rock!" He smiled proudly. "Mu, you still don't have anything?" He asked, because Mu was his only worry at the instant, other than DeathMask. "I can't think of anything…" Mu sulked. "Well, I have an idea. Let's just ask Athena what she'd like to do when it's time, and then we could go get the stuff." He said, but he himself didn't understand what he just said. "Okay." Mu sighed.
"Here's your pay." Zolo handed DeathMask a couple of bills of various colors. "Are you still going to work here?" He asked, because the pink, fleshy zombies were HUGE attractions for the shop. "I guess." DeathMask grinned. Wow. I'm getting what I want, free ice-cream and smoothies, and I even get extra pay! This doesn't get any better than this! "Yo, zombie dudes." A guy wearing strictly black (again) is calling for a zombie. The zombie trotted over and took his order. "Thank you so much, weird zombie-making guy!" Zolo shook DeathMask's hand furiously. "Uh, okay. I'll just leave now, okay?" DeathMask asked. The shop owner was too busy boasting about the zombies than to notice what DeathMask said. "Great." DeathMask teleported himself to the nearest Tuxedo shop.
"OUT! OUT! NOW!" A man in a fine tuxedo pushed DeathMask out the door of the shop. Then a lady in a lovely silk dress came and sprayed bug repellent all over DeathMask and headed back in with her chin up high and her nose scrunched up. "You filthy dog! This is a sophisticated shop, you know! This isn't a costume party! And you SMELL!" The man shouted and slammed the door behind him and switched the 'Open, please come in' sign to 'Closed, please come again soon'. "Great." DeathMask headed to another Tuxedo shop but ended up the same way. "AND STAY OUT!" The last Tuxedo shop slammed the doors and switched the sign. "Ooh…This stinks…" DeathMask murmured.
-------------
DeathMask: I am NOT filthy!
Yoruichi: Well, get used to it. That's the way the story will go.
Mu: This story was a bit too random, not much funny stuff, you know?
Kiki: STOP STEALING MY LINES!
Yoruichi: Well, this is getting to the end, so I'm trying to make everything fall into place like a puzzle, but in order to do that, I had to use my imagination and wit other than my humor.
Kiki: I didn't understand that. HEY! That wasn't in the script!
Yoruichi: You don't know the slightest thing about drama, do you?
Kiki: What's drama?
Yoruichi: I'll explain… Meanwhile, all you readers please R&R! Next chapter will be the LAST! And I think it might not be as funny as the others and it might be a bit short…
