The next day after Johnny woke up, he peeked out the doorway, just to see if it was alright. Then he slithered out the door and down the hall until he heard a voice coming from the white paper door. He pressed his ear up against it, and then realized he didn't have to, as the inhabitants were talking loudly and paper walls have barely any sound muffling.

"Oh, Naru, you're up." it was Motoko's voice. Johnny strained his eyes to see the shadows through the paper. He could see a tall one, probably Motoko, kneeling over a lump on the floor that he supposed was Naru.

"Eh? Wha...?" Naru muttered.

"Do you remember anything?" Motoko asked.

"No, not r-- ugh! That creepy guy!" she shouted. Then, in a whisper, "Is he still around?"

"I think so... although I haven't seen him yet this morning."

Johnny took a step back from the door, wondering if he should go before they found him. Then something crashed into him, and he was covered in a pile of clean laundry. Shinobu tried to get her stuff back together, but then she noticed someone else under the clothes.

"Mmm... okay. I'm gonna get dressed, if you guys don't mind turning around for a while." Naru's voice came through the door.

Johnny pulled a shirt off his face; Shinobu saw him and screamed bloody murder. Kaolla Su jumped up and slid open the door, revealing Shinobu with eyes wide open in horror and Johnny with an apologetic grimace.

"Aaaaa!!! You bastard!" Naru screamed and covered her chest, blushing more with anger than modesty. She shot a venomous glare at Johnny, but couldn't move or she would end up showing more of her body. Johnny writhed under her gaze and inched slowly out of view.

A low growling could be heard, as it came to a peak, Johnny could hear Motoko say, "Rrrrun..." Her eyes flashed from under her hair, and she leaped up like a demon to streak after Johnny, who started to run. She chased him outside past the laundry room and to the bath, where he tripped on a pebble, flipped, and landed with his head at Motoko's feet. She raised her sword, and...

Well, that's all for now, folks! Will Nny be gutted like a skinny, creepy-as-hell fish; or will he find some half-baked plot hole to save him? Tune in... umm... soon enough for the next installment.

And please review. Even though this is obviously not my best work, I do love the little commentses. I love them gooooood. :3
