Chapter 3: Rude Awakenings
Needless to say, I don't like sleeping in my clothes, and I like it even less when I'm awakened to a forceful pounce on my stomach from some idiotic uncle of mine. "Go away Uncle Isshin."
"It's time for you to get up and have some breakfast with the rest of the family!" I threw my pillow at his head to try to get him to shut up.
"Ever heard of Jet Lag Uncle, now go away!" I drifted off again into the realm of dreams.
When I next awoke my eyes met long golden blond hair and bright topaz eyes staring at me from behind a set of thick, yet elegant, glasses. Not exactly what I was expecting.
"Oh! You're finally awake! This is wonderful! Come on! Get up, silly! I have some clothes here I want you to try on! Then I'm going to take you SHOPPING!!! We get to do this ALL DAY!!! After the brief meeting of course! Isn't this great!?!" He looked so happy, though I couldn't say that I was all that thrilled with the thought. I sat up and was lost in a sea of white fabric from Yutaka's lab coat. "See you're still not a morning person even after all this time!"
"Good Morning Yutaka, how have you been?" I said trying desperately to regain a sense of feeling in my right arm.
"I'm good, I'm good! What about you? I hear you're just a little mastermind at school these days!" He was positively beaming. He valued nothing more than he did smarts in the field of science and fashion. I had one of those. "Here try this on!" He nearly squealed throwing a dark blue sun dress with an intricate gold design and a pair of black leggings. "Well? Try it on! Come, come! Don't be shy!!!" I stood there staring at him.
"Umm…" I looked over Yutaka s shoulder at Ichigo who stood in the doorway. His face was turning red and redder by the second. He grabbed Yutaka by the collar of his lab coat and dragged him out.
"You are NOT going to WATCH my COUSIN change! What kind of sick dead man are you!?!" Yutaka's face was priceless; apparently no one had told Ichigo about what he did in his spare time at the lab, which just happened to be making sex changing potions. All of them had failed miserably so far but he was still hopeful. I shook my head and put on the dress.
"Curses!" I hated dresses, always have and probably always will and he knew that. It was loose enough to fight in but it wasn't me. I stepped out of the room I had been given.
"Oh! It's PERFECT!!! Simply darling!" Come, come! We have a meeting to catch!" He dragged me out of the hall way and through the sitting room where Uncle Isshin, Karin and Yuzu where sitting watching that crazy TV show about some crazy guy that crossed his arms a lot and laughed like there was something missing, something like a brain. I waved to them as I was dragged into the street. They where use to this by now, after all, it happened all 7 times I had stayed there.
"Ouch, Yutaka! Your grip!" Mizuiro, Keigo and Chad where right next to us. Staring as some strange, half demented, transgender obsessed, dead man dragged me out the door. Of course, they didn't know that. "Yutaka!!! Are you trying to pull my arm off or what!?! Besides, I thought Asato was supposed to pick me up?"
"Yes well, he was busy and they said you needed clothes!!!" he practically sang to me, now pushing me into the car. I waved at the three teens on the sidewalk still gawking.
"It was nice to meet you, I'll be seeing you Chad!" and then the door shut and we were off. We pulled up in front of a fancy, five star hotel. "A hotel Yutaka, why not at HQ like usual?" He looked nervous and blew my question off with a wave of his hand. We walked inside. It was decorated with red and gold. I recognized one of the Guardians associates behind the counter. "So it's this bad?" This was not good. He led me to the elevator and we went up to the seventh floor.
