Ch.4

Soft. She was laying on something soft. Suri blearily opened her eyes and looked around.

She was in her room. The question was, how did she get here? The last thing she

remembered was Megumi's worried (not to mention tired) face. 'Ah, of course. Megumi.

She must have carried me to bed,' she thought. Suri raised herself into a sitting position.

Or, at least, she tried to. Her body jerked, and she fell back onto the bed. Oh Kami. This

wasn't happening. She couldn't believe it. The muscles in her back had completely seized

up.

She tried to move again, and promptly fell out of bed, causing a loud THUMP! to

echo throughout the house. Megumi blearily stumbled into Suri's room and raised a

purple eyebrow. What a peculiar sight. It wasn't everyday you saw Suri lying spread-

eagled on her stomach ON THE FLOOR. It took all of Megumi's iron will to keep from

cracking up right then and there.

"Ano, are you okay?"

"NO."

"Can I do anything?"

"Yeah."

"Like what?"

"Crack my back."

"You sure?"

"Yes."

"Positive?"

"Just do it!"

Chuckling to herself, Megumi strode over to her friend and stood on her back. Readying

herself, she counted down.

"Aaaaaaaaand… NOW!"

Jumping as high as she could, Megumi leaped into the air and landed on her friend's

back. A large CRACK! resounded throughout the house.

"Aaaahhh…" Suri sighed.

"Better?" Megumi said, stretching out her hand to help Suri up.

"Much," Suri replied. "Let's go get dressed, and let's also go check on our guests. They

had some serious wounds I'd like to take a look at." Suri's voice suddenly took on a

serious tone.

Megumi sighed. 'She's too kind for her own good, I swear. It'll be the death of her.'

Megumi frowned at the thought.

Suri, noticing the frown, smiled. "Don't be so glum! I'll make your favorite food!"

Megumi grinned. 'Then again, I don't really mind.'
