Cat eyed each trouble maker. She was making sure none of them were going to pull anything. Yusuke and Kurama were grinning innocently from ear to ear. Hiei was doing the same thing he'd been doing for the last ten minutes: staring into the twirling almost hypnotizing lights. Cat didn't bother checking on Kuwabara; he was such a good little boy. Never the culprit but always the victim. Poor Kuwabara. He was getting three cookies, Yusuke and Hiei were getting two (if he ever looked away from the pen that is), and poor, little sneaky Kurama was only getting one. Each would also get a choice of either juice or milk.
As she turned her back on them to go in the kitchen, Kuwa's brain clicked and a lightbulb appeared above his head. It lit up showing that he had an idea. He was going to foil Kurama's plan if it was last thing he did. Which it might be the last thing if Kurama fights back but I'm no psychic; Kuwa may surprise us but not right now, the lightbulb caught his hair on fire. (We all knew this was coming. If it was a subconscious idea or not you all were thinking it.) Well, it was more like a tiny spark but it scared the Yyh baby gang all the same.
"Ahhhh!!! Fire! Fire!" Yusuke screeched pointing to Hiei's head as Kuwa ran screaming behind him. "I got it! I got it!" Kurama declared, holding up a bucket of water and then pouring the water on Hiei's head. Sizzling came from the little fire demon. His head turned slowly and gave Kurama a toothy grin. Yuusuke whispered in Kurama's ear. "My bad..you might wanna run." Hiei then said something so strained but calm and quiet it scared Kurama. "You're lucky it was just me that got wet, Kurama, because if you had killed this pen i would have killed you." He clicked the pen to make the lights twirl but they were dimmer and didn't twirl as fast. Kurama backed away slowly from the crazy boy and then ran away screaming like a maniac.
Yusuke seized his chance. Grabbing a water gun from his pocket of mysteries (which was actually where he got the saw from) he raised it, and took aim at Kuwa's hair. He pulled the trigger and water squirted out dripping straight onto the ground. "Awww...I hate this. I always forget that you got to pump it first." Yusuke sat on the ground and pumped the little watergun. Meanwhile, Kuwa had been tryin' to put it out himself by stopping, dropping, then rolling but then he forgot that was only if your clothes were on fire.
Eventually Yusuke was ready and took aim once more and pulled the trigger. It hit its mark and Kuwa jumped in glee. And this whole scene lasted only a bit under a minute.
"Ok, snacks, everybody! In the dining room!" Cat called holding eight cookies and four milks and juices. Noticing only three kids, she looked around for Kurama. She found him in a corner behind a large potted plant shaking like he was scared and muttering, "Scary..scary... Hiei scary scary Hiei..Hiei scary..." But when she called the word 'snacks' again he jumped up happy as a kitten with a ball yarn and ran to Cat. There, he gripped her leg and wouldn't let go until she took them into the dining room. As she put them on their short multi-colored table and shook Kurama off her leg, she gave them their cookies. One for Kuwa, then Yusuke, then Hiei, then Kurama. Then another for Kuwa, Yusuke then Hiei. And finally another one for Kuwa. "Hey, they all have more then me!" Kurama noticed. "Well thats because you haven't been such a good boy today, Kurama." Cat explained.
"But...but.." he strained to protest but found there was no evidence to force an argument except.. "But the pen was controlling me! Hiei hypnitized me with that pen! With all the evil twirling lights! You gotta believe me!" Cat looked at him as he slammed his hands on the table. She stared the pen Hiei still clutched in his little hand. 'It does seem it could hypnotize someone...i wonder...' she thought. "Hiei.. give me the pen." "No!" "Give me the pen." "No!" "I said 'give it to me!" Noo!"
Kuwa and Yusuke calmly ate their cookies and sipped their milk and juice as Cat chased Hiei around trying to get the pen as Kurama beat his fist on the table demanding a lawyer. (What'd he do with a lawyer, i dunno, maybe he's watched to much t.v) Finally, Cat caught up with Hiei and grabbed him by his hair and dangled him a few feet above the ground. "Now give it to me!" "Nooo!" "Hiei! What did I tell you to do?" Cat screamed holding her hand for him to out the pen it. Hiei thought quick; if it ended like this, he'd be a laughing stock for the rest of his life! He'd be blackmailed and forced to do embarrasing things and watch... He gulped. ...Barney... Yes, Kurama would surely do that to him. He shuddered at the thought as another thought came to mind. He held out the pen as if to give it to her and at the last moment he pushed the button and held it there. The lights twirled around as she watched it, almost becoming entransed by it. Almost. She snatched it away from him and let go of his hair. "The pen is mine now! Now eat your snacks!" Hiei landed with a thunk on his seat and muttering angrily under his breath while he ate his cookies. 'Dang woman stole my pen! My pen will be avenged!'
"But I'm innocent!" Kurama yelled again. "Where's my lawyer? I want a lawyer! I want another cookie!" Kurama was not happy. The red head had a vile temper when it came to cookies. He would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. And cookies was what he wanted. His first stratagie was to look as cute as possible. He made his eyes as big and sparkly as he could muster and he put his hands together as if he was going to beg.
Cat looked at him with one eye open. "Don't try that with me, little one. But since this pen, dare i say it, looks evil, this will be a warning. Here, have another cookie." She gave him another cookie and stuffed the pen into her pocket. "Ok, hurry up and eat its almost time for naptime!" she called. Each Yyh baby finished eating without further argument unless you count when Kurama tried to outsmart Kuwa out of his last cookie but had given up when Kuwa threatened to tell on him. 'Dang' Kurama thought folding his arms. 'Why has he gotten so smart lately? Must be hanging around him too much.' He concluded. After all, he was the smartest of the whole group.
Cat began to clean up the table as the baby gang headed for the living room for another naptime. Yusuke yawned. He was tired. So was Kuwa.. and Hiei and well, all of them were tired. Cat called them from the other room. "I'll be ther in a minute guys. I'm just gonna write something down and be right there." They got under their blankies and grabbed their pillows and waited to be tucked in. And they waited and waited but Cat never came.
They were starting to worry. Hiei began to think. 'I wonder if she pressed the button...It won't be good if she did..' Next to him, Kurama was beginning to think the same thing. Yusuke and Kuwa...well..they were already asleep. Huh, go figure.
Ok, i got writers block now so this will be it for now. Thank you for all your reviews and as a thankyou here is a random question from YYh.(manga) y'know to help buy time until the next chapter.
I shall pick a random YYh volume from my bookshelf. And then turn to a random page and tell you what somebody said or did. I'll start with an easy one. Ok, begin..
Who from YYh said: "Ironic that the lowest knaves blood grows the lovliest flowers."
Hint: Its near the beginning of the dark tournament.
Ok, Bybye! Remember to review or even to just shout the answer to the question..doesn't matter to me.
