"Oh man, yesterday was so much fun!" Mizuki crowed the next day as she, Takara, and Aki were doing a little training in the backyard to keep limber. Hey, vacation or not, the Robbed Trio had to stay in shape!

"Oh yeah!" Aki concurred brightly as she did a few back flips and stretched out her arms and legs. "What should we do next?"

Takara looked thoughtful for a moment then shrugged. "Can you think of anything, Mizuki?" she asked, knowing what her friend would say. And sure enough, Takara had guessed right.

Mizuki's eyes lit up, and a wide smile covered her lips. "Yeah! Let's go to Times Square and see a Broadway play! Please!?" The wolf demoness began to jump up and down excitedly. A few years back, she had been hooked on plays, and Broadway was supposed to be really good, so why would she NOT want to go?

The other two demonesses rolled their eyes and looked at one another, both expecting the same answer. "Better be careful, Mizuki," Aki warned, "you're getting too predictable." She laughed and stuck her tongue out at the wolf, who chuckled also and did a few back hand springs.

"So, is that a yes?" Mizuki asked after a moment's silence, a hopeful smile on her face.

Takara and Aki sighed, and the half demoness said, "Yeah, that would be a yes.. jeez.. hyper much today? I think that champagne yesterday got to her," she uttered under her breath to Aki, who snickered.

Mizuki whooped with excitement and hurried her sisters through a fast half an hour of training, then the wolf bolted inside. She ran through the house screaming, "Everyone get ready! Come on, let's go!! Let's go, let's go, let's go! I'm going to go order the tickets, but you guys have got to get ready!"

"What's wrong with her?" Kurama asked in worry as he watched Mizuki raced up the stairs to get her laptop. He winced when Mizuki tripped twice. Several loud thuds were heard, soon followed by the wolf exclaiming, "I'm okay, I'm okay!"

Aki shrugged and plopped down beside Sesshoumaru at the table, grabbing an apple to munch on. "We decided to go see a Broadway play, and Mizuki's been wanting to do that for a while."

"She gets kind of excited sometimes," Takara laughed and sat down in Kurama's lap.

"Sometimes?" Hiei asked from the windowsill, one eyebrow raised questioningly.

"All right.. all the time," Takara admitted with a grin. "Oh, look what Mizuki did.. She went and woke Shuku up," she sighed and stood up, "I'll go see to her."

"Where's Jamie?" Mizuki asked as she rushed back down the stairs, a cute little outfit for the boy to wear to Times Square.

Sesshoumaru jerked his head in Hiei's direction. And there, in the fire demon's lap, was Jamie. The human boy was curled up and fast asleep, clutching to Hiei's shirt tightly with his little hands.

"Aw!" Mizuki cooed. Could you blame her? It was a very adorable sight. She handed the outfit to Hiei and said, "when he wakes up, get him changed into this, okay?" She didn't even give him a chance to decline as she ran off again upstairs, leaving Hiei sitting there in confusion with a little boy's outfit held in his hand.

The fire demon sighed and set the outfit on the table within his reach. He shook his head. "She's definitely a strange one," he murmured.

"All three of them are strange," Sesshoumaru corrected the fire demon.

Takara and Aki scowled at Sesshoumaru, who began to feel uneasy with the two staring at him that way. "We may be strange," Takara began, eyes narrowed at the dog demon, and Aki picked it up from there by shouting, "but we have way more fun!" The half demon and dog demoness looked to one another and laughed, both ruffling Sesshomaru's bangs that hung slightly in front of his face.

When the dog demon growled, the two sisters laughed loudly and bolted off, leaving a trail of dust for anyone to follow.. if they dared.

The boys sighed collectively, relishing in the silence that had settled in the room. It seemed like they didn't get a lot of quiet lately, so they had to treasure it when it came.

The silence was always short-lived, however, as Mizuki stampeded down the stairs and waved some tickets high above her head. "We've got tickets!" she exclaimed brightly.

She hurried everyone to get ready. She begged and pleaded for everyone to hurry, even going so far as to latch onto Hiei's leg to try and hurry him. "Hurry! Please! We can't be late!! PLEASE!?"

"Um, Mizuki?" Aki asked rolling her eyes. When she had her sister's attention, she said, "We have five HOURS until we need to leave."

Mizuki blinked owlishly and looked at everyone, who all looked at her with weird expressions on their faces. "Uh, eheheheh.. oh yeah.. my bad.." she muttered, her face tinting red in embarrassment as she let go of Hiei's ankle and stood up. She cleared her throat before slowly sliding out of the room. There was a sound of feet running up the stairs and into a room, followed by a muffled scream of frustration.

Takara and Aki sighed while the guys looked up at the ceiling warily.

"She tends to do that when she feels embarrassed," Takara explained with a shrug.

So everyone dawdled around for the next five hours, most cuddling up with someone else to chat and watch Open Season, to which the girls, Jamie, and Mikey all cracked up at while watching it. Kurama politly chuckled. Sesshoumaru and Hiei were actually biting their lips to keep from showing the grin that was warring its way onto their faces.

Soon, the time came, and Mizuki was bouncing around all over again, very much excited. It was a miracle they made it the 4 hours it took to get to Times Square all in one piece. The group walked up to the entrance but was halted by a policeman.

"I'm sorry, but the shows for tonight have been canceled for safety reasons," the man informed them, standing resolutely in the doorway.

Mizuki whined and tried to talk the policeman into letting them in, but the officer was starting to get annoyed. Hiei, embarrassed to know the wolf demoness who was acting so childish, sighed and picked Mizuki up, throwing her over his shoulder and walking back down the street as she complained to him.

The group sighed and rolled their eyes, following the fire and wolf demons. It was kind of a let down, but no one felt the let down more than Mizuki, who pouted all the way back to the house. Then she stomped off up to her room to beat up on her pillows.

"Hiei," Jamie tugged lightly at Hiei's sleeve, and when he got the fire demon's attention, he asked, "is Zuki upset?"

"Yeah," Hiei answered as he ruffled the boy's blond hair, "Zuki isn't in such a good mood right now."

Jamie wiggled out of Hiei's grasp then, and the fire demon had just enough time to catch Jamie and set the human boy down on the floor. "I'll go make Zuki happy then!" the boy shouted, flashing everyone a toothy grin before running off up the stairs.

Shi: Okay, so that's not that much.. but it's all I could squeeze out. I'm not really in the mood to write. I can NOT concentrate on anything for more than a couple minutes. Ask Aki.
Aki: -sighs- Sadly, it's true.. I don't know what's with her today.
Kit: It's Christmas! She's been running around all day I think, haven't you, Shi?
Shi: Actually, I have. I'm the errand girl on holidays.. when the family's over visiting, they ask me to go to the car and get something or to do this or that.. really annoying and tiring.. haha.
Kit: Lol, sounds like.
Aki: Jeez.. I'd tell them to go do it themselves...
Shi: -rolls eyes- I know you would, lol. Anyways...
Aki, Shi, and Kit: MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!
