KitsuneFreak: Hmmm, I have to say that I can't use HiyoGaku. Instead, I'm gonna give Saeki a cameo appearance. Sorry it took so long to post. My computer crashed and I just fixed it.

Do I own Prince of Tennis?
IYA!

(Badger, Badger, Badger, Badger, Mushroom, Mushroom…)

Oshitari's Bedroom (He's evidently late for morning practice):

"What the-?" Oshitari rummaged through his drawers for a 4th time. "They've got to be here!" He went over to where he kept the newer ones. When he looked through them he still didn't find what he was looking for.

"Oh boy. How am I gonna fix this?" Various possibilities filed into his brain. Out of all the possibilities only one could be taken. Ask Atobe for help. Atobe, him, of all people! Gakuto's reaction to his request would be of horror. Hiyoshi and Kabaji would probably ignore him. Choutaru would attempt to be helpful, but in the end he could do nothing about it. Shishido would never let him live without be reminded of his request and Jirou would sleep through his entire speechie request. So, in the end, only Atobe could help him. That was never a good thing.

Seigaku Tennis Courts:

"Echizen, what in the world did you just say?"

But it was too late; Ryoma was already heading in the direction of the women. His grip on his immortally beloved racket had loosened and it dropped to the ground in slow motion with a loud, resounding clatter. If you looked really, really closely you could see a shimmer of a tear come forth from the racket itself.

Sakuno, Ryuuzaki, and Tomo all saw Ryoma wander over.

"Look Sakuno-chan, Ryoma-sama is coming over!" Tomo started squealing and jumping up and down, essentially making a colossal fool of herself. And, if that wasn't bad enough she began pushing Sakuno from behind towards Ryoma, causing her to turn as red as a tomato…if that was possible.

"Oh my god," thought Sakuno, "Ryoma-kun is looking straight at me!" She quickly attempted to brush herself off but forgot that she was carrying a mound of books, which fell in disarray on the ground. Tomo gave her a secret thumbs up at her unintentional damsel in 'distress' technique. Sakuno quickly rushed down to pick up all the books and saw the pair of shoes stop right in front of her. Expecting Ryoma to do the manly thing and help her pick up the books she closed her eyes and look away.

"You're hot."

Sakuno looked up to find that her dear Ryoma was speaking to not her, but…her grandmother? (!)

"T-this…can't, be happening…" Sakuno mumbled and then tore off towards an undisclosed location crying, all the while screaming, "My grandma even pwns me!"

Tomo dropped her pile in confu-surprise. She looked from Ryoma, to Ryuuzaki, and finally to the figure of Sakuno who was dashing away. She couldn't choose who to be around. But as time ticked away she made her choice.

"Sakuno-chan, wait!" she ran after her best friend in order to comfort her, in that undisclosed place we mentioned earlier.

The Seigaku tennis club people wandered over to get a good look at this new couple.

"What is this new devilry? I am aghast," Kaidoh asked nobody in particular.

"Eh? Viper, since when did you know how to use fancy words?"

"Pssh! Shut up!"

It was silent for a moment until the biggest loudmouth in the world decided to give his opinion on the matter.

"I blame Inui-senpai!" Horio yelled, pointing an accusatory finger at the potion's master.

"Now, now," reassured Fuji, "not everything is Inui's fault…although most of it still is."

Inui smirked behind the cover of his glasses. Horio did not know just how right he was (for once).

At the Hyoutei Courts, Oshitari Finally Decided to Show Up…

"Oh, so you finally decided to show up?" Atobe asked accusatorily. He was about to send him off on laps but curiosity got the better of him as he noticed the awkward look on the tensai's face. "Something the matter?"

"Um, yes, there is something. Uh, well…umm…you see…" Oshitari took in a deep breath.

'Did Oshitari just stutter?' Atobe wondered mentally.

"Can I borrow some money?" Oshitari blurted out a little too loudly. Gakuto nearly tripped while doing a back flip and Hiyoshi choked on his water bottle. The rest of the regulars leisurely strolled over to eavesdrop.

"No… unless you give Ore-sama a valid reason."

"I can't. It's a bit odd and rather unbelievable."

"The last time Ore-sama was kind enough to lend money to a certain somebody," Atobe glared at Shishido who looked all smug, "he used it all to buy rocks and bottle caps for his personal collection."

"What? Pet rocks are nice," Shishido declared wryly.

"Anyway, what's your excuse?"

"Uh, well… I'll whisper it in your ear."

"Do you know how wrong that is?" Shishido whispered into Choutaru's ear.

Now normally Atobe wouldn't be as undignified as to let someone whisper in his ear but he was just way too curious for his own good. At first Atobe listened with a completed passive look on his face that later turned into disgust and finally horror.

"What do you mean by 'your underwear disappeared?'!" Atobe said. This time Gakuto really tripped.

"Ssh! Not so loud," but looking up, the tensai knew that all the regulars heard. Shishido was the first to react, well, third after Gakuto and Atobe of course. He blew up in a fit of laughter.

"Wow, Oshitari-senpai, they really disappeared?" Jirou asked innocently. Upon pondering the issue longer another question popped up. Hiyoshi was kind enough to ask it though.

"So, is that implying that you're NOT wearing any?"

"What? Of course not!" Oshitari said.

"But you just said that they all disappeared," Gakuto chipped in.

"I'm wearing my father's, of course."

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"Jeez, what kind of an idiot do you take me for?"

Everyone was silent on that one.

"Who do you think would do such a thing?" Gakuto finally asked, breaking the silence.

"Genkokuju!" Hiyoshi said. Everyone turned to look at him just as he was holding his crane-like pose.

"What's that's supposed to imply?" Choutaru asked looking at Shishido. He was the master of implications you know. But Shishido remained silent.

"What? I just felt like saying that. I didn't take them. Why would I want it?"

"Hmmm," they all said, while making some odd thinking pose unique to themselves alone. Yes, Kabaji too.

…

"So…will you give me the money?" Oshitari asked again.

Atobe sighed and pulled some money out. The way he saw it, was that if he helped Oshitari then he would owe him big time.

"Oh and another thing I have to ask," Oshitari started.

(WE INTERRUPT YOUR CHAPTERLY READING OF LP9….)

& NOW FOR A RANDOM MOMENT APART FROM LP9 INSPIRED BY MY LIFE:

Eiji's grip suddenly loosened due to his exhaustion from practice and his racket fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Oh crabs!" he muttered.

"Why'd you say crabs Eiji? It's a rather odd and unusual exclamation," Oishi asked innocently.

"Umm," Eiji grasped for a good story to tell. "I really like crabs and am looking forward to it for dinner?"

Oishi knew at once that it was a lie and probed deeper, "No, really, tell me. Why'd you say crabs?"

"Well, weren't you the one who banned me last week from saying cra(STAR)?"

"I TOLD YOU NOT TO SAY THAT WORD!"

"Eep!" the poor acrobat covered his head whimpering, "Sorry, sorry! I'll never do that again!"

& RANDOM MOMENT HAS JUST ENDED. THANK YOU. NOW BACK TO LP9:

(THANK YOU AGAIN FOR LETTING US WASTE YOUR TIME….)

With Kamio on His Way to the Shopping Mall, AGAIN:

"Darn. Why did I have to forget the grip tape and…THE HAIR GEL, NOOO I shall never redeem myself in the eyes of the great one, Tachibana-san! I skipped practice to buy it too. Will he ever forgive me?" Kamio bellowed with tear filled eyes. He waved his fist at the sky unaware of the figure shrouded in shadow. After he finished angsting he walked on briskly to buy his quest items. He pulled out his wallet to count if he had enough money. Bad move. The figure initially shrouded in shadow stepped out. This unknown man was none other than Bobby Shoe, an original character created by Kitsune Freak to create a plot for the next scene! He wore a pink shirt that bore the words, 'Real Men Wear PINK'. Now that pink clothed man stalked very quietly behind Kamio and snatched his wallet out of his hand. He took off with it immediately after leaving poor Kamio in the dust, yen-less.

Now this Bobby Shoe was never such a bad individual before. This is what really happened to make Bobby Shoe turn into such a bad person:

What Happened that Turned Bobby Shoe Into Such a Bad Person:

"Oh what a beautiful day!" cried Bobby Shoe. He smiled widely as he walked, for today; he was king of the world in the tiny cubicle in which he worked in. Yes indeed. What a wonderful day it was for Bobby Shoe, the cubicle worker. Just as he passed a general merchandise store his eyes super-glued themselves to the window. There, in the display case was a PINK sun visor! Bobby Shoe was so excited that he finally found something that could match his pink shirt and watch. He pulled out his wallet to find that he was 100 yen too short and began to mope, forgetting that he'd be late to work. He didn't notice the colorful swears that were being shouted behind him. All that he cared about was that little pink visor. The visor he couldn't get. He stared at his money woe-ingly wishing, for once, that money did grow on trees.

Well, it's pretty easy to predict what happened after that. Apparently our mad scientist's capsule got to him. However, his reaction to it was different. Instead of loving that one object, he loved all objects like looked like….MONEY. Ah yes, money is the root of all evil…

ANYWAY, this robbery left Kamio devastated and he looked around everywhere for a place where he could get quick cash…without being some random hobo.

He was about to go and cry in the corner when he spotted a 'EMPLOYEES NEEDED' sign and thanked the gods above and ran to the store. Oh, and did we mention that it was a fast food restaurant called Burger-o-Rama?

"Hello, how can I help you?" said Joe Schmoe the manager.

"Uh, yeah, I saw the sign on your window and I need a job," Said Kamio

"Well, as of the moment the only job available is the advertising one."

"The advertising one?" Kamio thought hard, really hard. And made his choice. "I'll take it!"

"Okay then," Joe shrugged, "then suit up. The costume's over there."

"Yes sir!"

Minutes later:

"How in the world did I take the job again?" Kamio groaned. He was standing smack-dab in the middle of the mall in a hamburger suit, with lettuce, bacon, pickles and everything.

At Hyoutei:

"Don't you think that this would be a bit uncomfortable if I wore it?" Oshitari asked inquisitively.

"Of course not. Have you ever doubted me before?"

"Okay, so let's go through the list again," Oshitari said quickly. "Makeup."

"Check."

"Dress."

"Check."

"High heels?"

"Check."

"That's everything."

"Che- I mean good," Atobe.

"Now, just how to put all this stuff on…"

"In less than ten minutes you'll come out looking like the coolest girl ever!" Atobe snapped his fingers and his people were on it. Looks like they're cutting class. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Just like Atobe promised, in ten minutes, Oshitari came out looking like a girl…in a dress…with makeup…and high heels.

"Okay now how do you apply the lip gloss again?" Oshitari asked.

"Okay, watch me apply my lip balm and do the same except with your gloss." Atobe then meticulously did the aforementioned task. Oshitari, of course, copied what he did with his lip gloss. Magnifico! Oshitari la chica.

Back to Seigaku (Don't you just love them?):

"I'm telling you Ryoma's not right in the mind," Oishi yelled but noticed that someone was not paying attention to him, "Captain…Captain? CaPtAiN! (!)"

"Aaaaah!" Tezuka clutched his ears, "Not sticky caps, anything but the sticky caps!"

Oishi sighed, "You let your guard down."

"…" the captain's eye visibly twitched.

"So, about Ryoma. F.Y.I. he's hitting on our coach. We have to do something!"

Tezuka stared long and hard at his vice-captain. "He let his guard down." Picking up Blossom he proceeded to go to class. Before he went to the lockers he stopped to look out the window and met Eiji with something behind his back.

"…" said Tezuka acknowledging the acrobat.

"Tezuka, I know this is going to hurt, but it's for your own good."

"What's for my own good?' Tezuka asked.

Without replying, Eiji whipped out a lighter from behind him, lit it and sprang towards Blossom.

"No! Tezuka Zoooone," Tezuka, glowing all Super Saiyan-like stood protecting his plant, while Eiji tripped and fell. "Blossom, are you all right?"

"Which reminds me," started Eiji, sitting in a criss-cross style and looking up. "Why do you even call it Blossom? I mean, it has no blossoms on it. It's a bonsai plant."

Tezuka then looked like he was so offended at that, "She's sensitive about that." Going into glaring mode, he said, "say that again, and …" But he left it at a cliffhanger! Oh noes!

(Badger, Badger, Badger, Badger, Mushroom, Mushroom…)

KitsuneFreak: Did my fingers just type up all that wacked up stuff? I really put a whole bunch of unimportant things in there. Review anyway please! And if you're wondering, that crab thing did happen. Is accusatorily actually a word? (O.o) Oh and I'm addicted to that name, Bobby Shoe. I think I made Ickiakki stick that name in one of her fics, too. Kakoi!

-thinks- You know, I'm just gonna go get some cookies now, and sugar crystals….Mmm… yum.

Oh and another thing I have to get out of my system, 'Inuyasha getting bit on the rear by Shippou is so hilarious! (Episode 130)'
Okay, I'm officially done wasting your time with random intervals of my life.

R&R!
