Author: I would like to state that I wasn't the only insane mind working on this chapter, Raye-chan helped. So applaud!


For a while everyone sat around the table in silence. "Wow, where did all the excitement go?" asked Mimi

"Yeah, it's kind of boring without anybody trying to kill you." pointed out Shorty.

"We could go see how the rebuilding of the school is going." suggested Kurama.

Kurama's suggestion was met with crickets chirping. Then someone randomly threw a bar of soap that hit him in the face, throwing him from the chair. AHHHH!!! NOT THE SOAP! ANYTHING BUT THE SOAPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!

"How about not." Said Bunny.

"Hm. If violence is all that is amusing I could get demons to chase you." pointed out Hiei. Bacon flew through the air to hit him in the nose.

"BACON!!" screamed Raye, who pounced on the meaty substance to gobble it down.

"Uh Raye? That's not Bacon." Pointed out Christar. "It's a dog treat."

Raye looked down at what remained of the meaty-ish substance "IT'S BACON!!!" yelled the girl before scarfing the remains down.

"I know!" said Rosa "The Fair is in town!"

Thus began the adventure known as: The Carnival of Horrors!

"P-I-C-K-L-E! P-I-C-K-L-E! P-I-C-K-L-E! And pickles are so Green-o" sang Setsuna "Oh how I love Carnivals. You know I once was in a circus?" She said to Yusuke.

Bunny was wearing baggy jeans and a red long-sleeved shirt with 'The rabid clowns are right behind you' on it. Her steel toed boots clonked in steps with Hiei's black clad form. They were in the back of the line of teenager-esk beings. In front of them was Catty in a black "Labyrinth" hoodie, jeans and red vans. She was explaining the wonders of videogames to Mimi and Rosa. Rosa was wearing a wispy red skirt with a black 't, a fur lined black coat and black high healed boots. Mimi was wearing Cargo pants, flip-flops and a pink long sleeved shirt with a bunny on it. In front of them Shorty in dark jeans, a baby blue t-shirt under a dark blue zip up hoodie and Pooky in torn jeans, orange t-shirt and black jacket. In front of them, Raye in a plaid skirt, black System of a Down 't with a blue long sleeved shirt underneath and motorcycle boots was walking hand and hand with Kurama in jeans and a green 't with a green jacket over it and was chatting at Christar in black pants, gray t-shirt under a black trench coat. In front of them was a silent Van dressed in the same outfit as last chapter, but with a black trench with red silver lining who was glaring at the singing Setsuna. Speaking of the crazy lady she was wearing a black leather skirt, fishnet stockings with black hooker boots, a purple velvet halter top and a black leather trench coat with leopard print insides.

"Come on everybody! We're almost there!" yelled Setsuna pointing to the entrance.

"YAY!" squealed Raye, dragging Kurama faster.

They reached the gate and paid their $5.50.

"I want to go to the Farris Wheel!"

"I wanna go to the hall of mirrors!"

"Haunted House!"

"Games!"

"Carousel!"

"Oh Teacups!"

"Swings!"

"Roller coaster!"

"COTTON CANDY!!!"

Everyone ran in different directions. Someone called out "Meet up at Water Slide at 6!"

With Setsuna

She dragged Yusuke to the hall of mirrors. That's a surprise. Someone as vain as Setsy wanting to go to the hall of mirrors? Who'da thunk it. "I'm not that vain you retard." Setsuna muttered.

"What?" asked Yusuke

"Nothing. I love the maze of mirrors. You could just get lost here." she said dreamily.

She turned, looking in a distorted mirror that was tented blue. Her eyes squinted as she caught an extra reflection "Aw crap. And I thought I was on vacation."

With Bunny

The crazy Pyro of course chose the Roller coaster. It was called…The Wildfire "So let me get his straight. You get on a man made…thing that launches you at high speed on a rickety rail with only a measly piece of cloth keeping you from death?"

"Yeah. Great right?" They were being strapped in

Hiei smiled "Hell yeah."

"WEEEEE!!!!" squealed 7 kids. "I've WALKED faster." said Hiei, unimpressed.

"Yeah. But hey, it's less work." said Bunny.

They reached a bend and were about to go into a cave when Hiei said "Bunny. I don't think that opening leads to the rest of the ride."

With Raye

Raye of course decided to satiate her sweet tooth with cotton candy. Kurama bought her one that was bigger than her head. She bit off a big chunk. "What time were we supposed to meet back?" asked Kurama, the ever vigilant.

"Uh… I think like 6:30."

They went onto the teacups and began to wheel around and around. Raye's cotton candy flew away "NO!!! JOEYYY!!!"

Kurama's eyes widened as he saw what was happening around them "Um. I have a feeling that's not the worst of our problems."

With Catty

Christar was dragged along by Catty to the game section of the fair. "C'mon Chrisy! I challenge you to a gun duel!" Catty squealed stopping at the booth where you shoot all the balloons you can. She gave a dollar to the booth owner and picked up her gun. She looked to her sister-by-dating and saw her totally unimpressed face. "PLEEAASE!"

Christar smiled, picked up a gun, and shot. It went right through the balloon and through the wall on the other side. "Whoa. This is real." she said looking at it.

"That's strange." said Catty "Usually they make these, oh I dunno, safe? What's with this dude?" she asked the booth owner. He didn't answer "Yo! Dude! Whazzup? You been drinking?" she said running her hand over his eyes. "Uh-oh this ain't good."

With Rosa

Mimi and Rosa dragged Van to the Farris wheel. "Come on Van cheer up! It's a carnival. You can't be your own, stick in the mud I'm-such-a-badass self here!" said Mimi.

"Watch me." he said.

"Hey, Mimi? Where were we supposed to meet back?" asked Rosa

"Um, the food court I think."

They were sitting in the little cages going in a circle. "How is this fun?" asked Van.

"Look outside. It's so pretty!" said Mimi, her face pressed to the glass. "Hey! What's that!" she said pointing out.

"I dunno. Hm." Rosa looked over her shoulder "What the hell's going on down there."

"Did this ride get suddenly faster?"

With Pooky

Pooky and Shorty skipped to the haunted house hand in hand. They bespelled the ride runner so that they saw the three people coming on the ride, but not the two others that snuck into the last seats. They giggled at the moaning sounds and discussed whether or not the ride would be campy or cool.

"AHHH!!" screamed three kids.

"I'm sensing something coming closer." said Shorty.

"I feel it too. Looks like this won't be that campy." They exchanged glances.


Author: NOTES!!!

1) Explanation for the soap: I've only ever roll played once. In that time they kept on throwing soap at me! I don't know why (okay, I was playing a guy who was kinda an ass… like Setsuna only a chick) and it scarred me for life.

2) The Bacon thing Raye came up with. In fact most of this beginning part was Raye's fault. Not mine.

3) lol… the Wildfire holds a special place in my heart. Inside joke… maybe someday you'll be introduced to the fic that explains it.

4) something about Raye, she names things that belong to her. It's kinda like the fish who said "I name you Squishy from now on you shall be my Squishy" Her most used name is Joey.
