An alarm clock blared loudly in the ear of a ravenette girl who slammed her fist down on top on the noisy device. She quickly threw her covers back, swung her legs off the side of the bed and jumped up onto her feet. She headed straight for her closet and flicked her light on on the way as she stretched out. The ravenette rummaged through her closet before she pulled out a pair of black shorts, a blue quarter sleeved off the shoulder shirt which had a small sleeping fox on the front and a black tank top. She pulled her night shirt which happened to be one of her boyfriends tee-shirts off and quickly changed into the clothes she had pulled from her closet. She ran hair brush through her hair before she tied it up into a high ponytail with blue bandanna that belonged to her boyfriend. She did a three sixty turn before she skipped out of her room, flicking the light off as she went, and continued skipping down the hall to her sister's room.
A small brunette girl had been awakened in the same manner as the ravenette and she was just walking out of her room when the ravenette girl bounced up beside her. The brunette was wearing a pair of faded jean caprices with a white tee-shirt which had the tootsie pop owl on the front and the words "how many licks does it take" in a thought bubble with a half eaten tootsie pop up under it on the back of the shirt. The brunette's hair was brushed out and left to barely touch the brunette's shoulders which was her usual way of styling her hair.
"Good morning Onee-chan! My don't we look nice this morning?" the ravenette teased as she went skipping down the staircase.
"Morning to you to Imotou and yes I think we look very nice this morning!" the brunette half shouted as she followed the ravenette down the stairs knowing that if she didn't raise her voice the other would not hear her.
The two girls froze at the bottom of their staircase due to the mess their living room was in. Their black couch was out of place as were their four different colored beanbag chairs and their black sofa. There were books, pens, pencils, paper, clothes and hair accessories scattered all throughout the room, their silver karaoke machine was sitting dead center of the living room, and their TV had clothes flung across it. Their glass coffee table and glass end tables were up against the wall all three of them being loaded with different stuff and four empty book shelves on the opposite wall with a name on each of them. Both girls cringed at the sight, but both knew that it had to be cleaned up as soon as possible.
"I need to go start on Imotou's cake. Onee-chan just pick up the clothes and stuff and I'll come back an help ya with the furniture." the ravenette stated to which she got a small nod.
"Ok, but can you open the bar doors so if I get buried you can come dig me out?" the brunette questioned softly which made the ravenette laugh.
"Of course! I won't be long." the ravenette stated as she walked into their kitchen, opened the doors on the bar counter and set to gathering ingredients.
The apartment got quiet after that with the ravenette girl mixing up a cake and the brunette cleaning the den. The ravenette pour the cake batter into a large rectangular cake pan that she had greased and set it into the oven. She cleaned up the mess she had made by wiping the counters off and washing the dishes before she went to join her older sister in the den. The brunette had piled all the books in a pile on the floor, the clothes in a separate pile and their hair accessories into another pile. She was carrying as many clothes as she could at the time to the laundry room where she had already put on a load to wash and put the clothes in a basket. The ravenette picked up the pens, pencils and paint brushes and put them in a box on top of her book case where they were normally kept. They both went through the books and put them on their rightful owners bookcase in a neat fashion. The brunette collected all the hair accessories and took them to where they belonged while the ravenette put the karaoke machine back in front of the TV and drug the sofa back to it's spot. The ravenette pulled while the brunette pushed on the couch until it was back in its rightful spot and then went after the tables. The brunette put the end tables on opposite ends of the couch while the ravenette put the coffee table back in front of the couch. The ravenette picked up her silver beanbag chair which had fox embroidered on it and a purple one that had Lioness embroidered on it and put them side by side on the opposite side of the room. The brunette followed after her dragging her own navy beanbag chair that had owl embroidered on it and a hunter green one that had Leopard embroidered on it and put them beside the silver and purple ones. The ravenette went to the closet under the staircase to drag out the decorations while the brunette place two seashell lamp on the end tables and their family album on the coffee table.
"This box is bigger then I remember." the ravenette grunted as she pushed the box out of the closet just as a knock sounded through out the apartment.
"Who could that be?" the brunette questioned softly to which she received a shrug as she went to answer the door.
"Onee-chan! I'm home and I brought Rei with me!" a younger ravenette girl shouted as she and a long hair ravenette walked into the apartment before the brunette could get to the door.
"Kels-chan!" the older ravenette and the brunette shouted in unison before they both looked up towards their other sister's room.
"Shh. Robyn's still asleep and we don't want her up yet." the older ravenette shush as the younger pounced her in a hug which caused the man at the door to chuckle.
"We wanna help! Rei, come on." Kelsey ushered the man into the room which he was marveling at.
"I don't think I've ever been over with the place this clean before." Rei, a long haired ravenette Chinese man informed them lightly as Kelsey tackled the brunette in a hug.
"We just got finished and we're about to start decorating." the older ravenette boast lightly as Rei helped her bring the box out into the floor.
"Kels-chan, Amaya went evil last night!" the brunette informed the younger ravenette who gave the older ravenette a surprised look.
"What'd she do Koori?" Kelsey questioned as Amaya went about digging the banner out of the box.
"She conned me into helping her kidnap Kouichi, whom is up stairs a sleep with Robyn." Koori informed the ravenette which caused Rei to go wide eyed and give them both a worrisome look.
"Did either of you consider telling Kouji or Kai?" Rei inquired as Amaya walked over to their in wall bar.
"Nope." Amaya replied shortly as she climbed up onto the counter and began putting the banner up.
"Amaya, Kouji loves you, but he's not gonna be too happy with his brother missing and I'm pretty sure if you had asked Kouichi he would have come over here of his own free will." Rei told the ravenette nervously as Kelsey stood there gaping at the information.
"Don't worry Rei, I can handle Kouji, besides we haven't hurt Kouichi not unless you consider chloroforming him hurting him." Amaya informed him dully having been more focused on the banner then his warnings.
"How'd you two get into their apartment in the first place!?" Kelsey inquire a little loudly not believing how cool Amaya was acting towards all of this.
"I had a friend teach me how and I picked the lock." Amaya informed the younger ravenette who was helping Koori with a few streamers as was Rei.
"You've been hanging around Sally again haven't you!?" Kelsey snapped a bit angrily seeing as that blonde was no good to her.
"She is a good teacher." Amaya informed the younger ravenette who turned to Koori the instant Amaya said that.
"She's corrupting our level headed and mature sister! She must die, that's our job!" Kelsey stated in a sort of whine that made her boyfriend laugh at her as Amaya walked back into the kitchen.
"You two shouldn't be trying to corrupt her. If you succeed who will keep the three of you in line and out of jail?" Rei inquired with a slight chuckle which made the two girls stop to think about his question.
"Point taken." Koori and Kelsey stated in unison as they went back to decorating.
"Koori! Amaya! Open the damn door!" a shout mixed with a loud knock of the door sounded the instant the girls and Rei had went back to decorating.
"What now!?" Amaya shouted in frustration as Rei went to answer the door for Koori who had hidden at the sound of her name.
Rei let a fuming long hair ravenette Japanese man and a two toned blunette in the door with a smile that was ignore. The long haired boy was younger then Rei, the Russian, and even the two older girls that lived in the apartment, but that wasn't something that stopped him. The younger boy was glaring rather fiercely at Amaya who was smiling lightly back at him from inside the kitchen.
"You are truly a sneaky and unpredictable fox! I applaud you and Koori for breaking in and getting out without being noticed, but my brother is one person you both should know not to mess with." the younger growled at Amaya who was leaning on the opposite side of the wall counter with a fake confused expression on her face.
"What ever do you mean Kouji? I haven't seen Kouichi since he was here two days ago." Amaya inquired innocently which caused Kelsey to bite her lip in an attempt to keep herself from laughing.
"You and I both know that's a load of bull!" Kouji snapped which caused Kelsey to burst out laughing since Kai had just found Koori.
"I plead the fifth!" Koori shouted in her defense as Kai propped his elbows on the back of the couch.
"You're not in the US anymore Koori that rule doesn't apply." Kai informed her rather bluntly which caused Amaya to giggle lightly at her.
"She did it! She tricked me! I swear she tricked me into helping her, I didn't wanna do it!" Koori shouted while pointing at Amaya who had her chin sitting on her bridged fingers.
"Amaya?" Kouji turned back to the girl who seemed completely comfortable and calm.
"I haven't done anything." Amaya stated bluntly before she shut the door on the bar in Kouji's face.
"She isn't gonna tell you anything." Kelsey informed Kouji who looked as if he were now more fuming mad then he had been when he walked in the front door.
"She will." Kouji growled as he walked through the kitchen door and slammed it shut.
"She does realize she just riled him up more, right?" Rei inquired to which he got laughter.
"He won't hurt her. Kouichi and Amaya are Kouji's weakness, but I do wonder about their relationship sometimes." Kelsey stated matter of factly while hinting at the up and down relationship of the in the kitchen.
"I hope Robyn likes all of this." Koori stated nervously while keeping a good three feet between her and Kai.
"Weren't you girls doing something when we came in?" Kai inquired while watching Koori with slight amusement.
"Decorating which we should get back to since we are no where near finished." Kelsey stated while handing Kai a roll of garland and pointing at the stair case.
