Chapter Nine: Giant Axes and Knots

"Hi Kayaty!" Juman greeted us at the door. Juman had long brown hair and dark brown eyes, just like her sisters. The three of them looked identical.

"Hey Juman! This is Megan and Taylor, friends from school."

"Well come on, you guys can help me untie my sisters." We followed Juman into the living room where we found to others who looked similar to Juman laying on the ground, wrists tied behind their backs and feet tied together, with gags in their mouths.

"These are my sisters, Rawan and Tijan." Juman said, taking the gags out of said sisters' mouths.

"I'm going to kill you Juman!" Tijan shouted.

"I love you too, sis." Juman said.

"Whataya say we tie her up and leave her?" Rawan said.

"Sounds good to me." Tijan said. By now Max and Konan had set to work on untying Rawan while me and Juman worked on Tijan.

"I can't untie these knots!" Max said.

"I've never seen knots as tight as these before." Konan said.

"Ya, the Triplets are experts at tying knots. They've had a lot of practice on each other, haven't ya?"

"Sure have, and I'm going to be practicing some more on Juman when I get out of this!" Tijan said, moving around.

"Stay still! Its hard enough already to get these knots out! We don't need you making it anymore difficult!" I told her.

About half an hour later Rawan and Tijan were finally free and chasing Juman up the stairs with the intent of tying her up using the same rope she had used to tie them up.

"Meow." I turned to see a fluffy white and tan cat with bright blue eyes on the stairs.

"Hey Fluffy!" I said, picking her up.

"They have a cat?" Max asked.

"And a dog." I told her.

"Please tell me it doesn't talk." Max said, probably thinking about Total and how annoying he can be at times.

"No, Shepard doesn't talk."

"Thank God."

"Do you know a dog that does talk?" Konan asked.

"Yup, and his name's Total. Sometimes its better that animals can't talk."

We walked up the stairs and saw that Rawan and Tijan had just finished tying Juman up and she was now laying on the couch, with a gag in her mouth. A small white and brown dog sat next to her, resting its head on her lap.

"I see you were successful in tying up your sister." Konan said.

"Its our way of showing that we love each other." Rawan said. "Here, let me give you a tour of the house." Konan and Max left with Rawan downstairs to start the tour there.

"So what do you want to do?" Tijan asked.

"I don't know, go through your sisters' rooms?"

"Sounds good to me."

We went to Rawan's room first, seeing as how we don't have to worry at all about Juman and her currently showing Max and Konan around the house. We didn't find anything of interest and moved onto Juman's room.

"My God it looks like Mother Nature threw up in here." Tijan commented. Juman's room had a few plants in it as well as just about everything in the room being some shade of green.

"Look what I found!" I said, holding up a light green box. "I wonder whats in here."

Tijan came and we opened up the box to see a magic banana! No, it was just a bunch of pencils. And they weren't even sharpened! A smile slowly spread its way across Tijan's face.

"Wanna chop these pencils up with a giant ax?"

"Hell ya!"

Tijan went downstairs to get an ax while I set out the pencils to be chopped up in the upstairs living room. Juman just watched me from her seat on the couch. I think she was thinking something along the lines of 'whatonEarthisshedoing?'.

"I've got the ax!" Tijan said.

"And I've laid out the pencils!"

The ax was like any other, wooden handle, red and silver blade. Tijan walked around the pencils I've set out before walking up to a green one and raising the ax.

"Die nature pencil!" she shouted as she brought the ax down. The pencil split in two and one of the halves went flying towards Juman's head. She ducked and the pencil half flew over her to who knows where.

"My turn!" I said, taking the ax from her. I was just about to chop up a bright pink pencil when Rawan, Max, and Konan returned from their tour of the house.

"What are you two doing?"

"Hm!" Juman said.

"Chopping up pencils with a giant ax?" I said.

"Kitta, put the ax down veeery slowly." Max said.

"Why? I want to chop up all the disgusting pink pencils into little ittybitty pieces!" And with that I brought the ax down, chopping the pink pencil in two.

"Sammie! Put. The. Ax. Down. Now." Konan said.

"Wow. I never knew Taylor could be this scary..." Rawan said. I just put the ax down before Konan decided to murder me.

Rawan took the ax back to where it belonged while the rest of us (minus Juman, who was still tied up) picked up the pencils – both chopped up and not – and put them back in the box. I put the box back where it belonged in Juman's room before coming back out to the living room.

"So what do you guys want to do?" Tijan asked.

"How about we watch a scary movie!" Rawan said.

We all agreed and not long after we were all sitting on the couch with a tied up Juman and Fluffy and Sheppard. After the movie was over I fell asleep where I sat on the couch.

The next day when we got home Max and Konan told everyone about our sleepover at the Triplets' house. They told them about us untying Rawan and Tijan and then those two tying up Juman. Everything was fine until Max mentioned the incident with the ax.

"Chopping stuff up is fun!" Hidan commented.

"How did you get your hands on an ax anyway, un?"

"Tijan found it. I'm not sure where, but she did."

This continued on a while longer, everyone except Itachi making comments and asking questions. That is, until out of the blue Itachi decided to contribute.

"I forbid you from seeing them again."
