*is still searching for Watari* Where can he be? I had a pretty good idea where he went but his presence has totally disappeared now. Maybe I'll get lucky if I make a search pattern. *starts wandering*
Desperately seeking Watari
Along the ornate halls of the Shokan division, Touda walks aimlessly. He hasn't met up with Tsuzuki all day ever since he passed out after Touda's 'medical' treatment.
Touda notices that there's a lot of broken windows in the building. Hmm, Seiryuu-sama would have never allowed these type of occurences to happen in Gensoukai.
He continues his walk.
Touda
*A couple of minutes later all the Meifu is shaken by the mighty sound on Enma's enraged voice cursing about the insanely LARGE amount of cash he's been forced to hand out to a certain China Doll cousin for the sake of keeping his own employees. Not to mention the repair cost of all the broken windows*
*sweatdropping* I really hope she'll be alright ...
Ah! I have two days until Watari gets reincarnated! Must hurry and find him!
Tsuzuki off
*sighs* Tsuzuki-chan...I have to make sure Hajime-chan is all right! Who else will? *glances briefly at the copy Count D has given her and sighs deeply* Now..I have to go find him..to make sure he is all right.
*runs off in search of Terazuma*
Another day in the life of Wakaba..
*twitch twitch* That .... guy .... is really ...... ARGH!!!!!!
Wakaba-chan *worried* are you SURE you know what you're doing? That guy's a KAMI and I can tell you through personal experience that Kamis are TWISTED.
BAD personal experience ^^
*wraps up contract in a neat-o fold and shoves it inside his broad silk sleeve*
Thank you for your purchase, Lady Wakaba. Please take loving care of your pet far into the future. Oh, and here is a copy of the contract you signed. Just in case your new adquisition decides to... how shall I put it? get rebellious. ^_^
Now if you excuse my rudeness I think I will go make a nice deal with my dearest cousin for those twin chickens.
*bows and turns to leave, a snorting 003 still on his shoulder, when he steps HARD on Tsuzuki's foot 'by accident'*
Oh, I am very sorry! Was that your toe I smashed? *innocent virgin smile*
D's to do list: Make another 'satisfied' pet owner seal her fate, check.
Mmmmmmmmpff!!
Tsuzuki not having a good day
*sighs* Yes...I do...*looks warily at Tsuzuki and Count D* I don`t know...but, I don`t want Hajime-chan to end up with someone else and be mistreated. *begins to sign her name on the contract with a troubled look on her face*
Only for Terazuma...
*wraps Tsuzuki's mouth in several layers of plastic tape (brought out of the Cheongsam of Wonders, of course)*
*niiiko*
Never let a customer escape you
Don't sign it, Wakaba-chan!!
Tsuzuki has a bad feeling
*ignores Tsuzuki frowning at him as he gently places a delicate hand on Wakaba's shoulder*
You /do/ want your friend back, do you not, young lady?
Meanie Count!
*yoinks contract from Wakaba and squints at fine-print*
'Should you break one of these conditions, we cannot be held liable or responsible ....' What is this??
Tsuzuki must protect Wakaba!
I am sorry but that is part of the contract's fineprint. I cannot explain it to you because it is completely unpredictable. *mysterious smile*
We accept all the most important credit cards, personal checks and fruit tarts from Madame C's.
D, forever his sweet tooth's victim
*takes the contract and the pen from D and bites her lip thoughtfully* Ah...what will happen if the contract is breached? I can`t keep an eye on Hajime-chan all the time...and I can`t lock him up in my apartment..can I?
A slightly confused Wakaba
*lost in image of Wakaba with a pet Terazuma*
Tsuzuki having off-color thoughts?
*immediately proceeds to produce a contract form very similar to the ones Suzaku toasted and a very feminine looking pen and hand them out to Wakaba*
Hai, hai, hai... Please sign your name here. Read the terms carefully and understand that in case they are breached the Petshop cannot assume any responsibility for the consequences. 1) Give him careful hair brushes every day, 2) Do not let any other female touch him, 3) -and you must be especially careful with the third- NEVER let anyone but you kiss him.
You know the drill
*sniffs yet again, hugs D and smiles* Oh...thank you so very much! Hajime-chan is my partner Terazuma Hajime...I`m surprised you don`t remember him D-sama. I certainly won`t forget him...*sighs dreamily*
Another contract? Sure..why not? Anything for Hajime-chaannn!
All smiles yet again!
*face falls* But you CAN'T take the Gushoushin!! They're my friends!!
Though giving Terazuma to Wakaba-chan is a good idea .....
Tsuzuki intrigued by idea
*003 is too confused by all the smoke and legal stuff so decides to take a nap perching at D's shoulder*
Hooting his life away
*is moved by Wakaba's lovely teary face -which BTW has mismatching eyes too!- and proceeds to confort her tenderly*
Awwwww... There, there, young lady. Hajime-chan, you say? I wonder which of the pets are you referring to... But no matter what you can always purchase it back from me, that is for certain! You would have to sign a contract, of course, but then he will legally belong to you. I will even give you a discount for being so kyuuute! ^.^
*stares indiferently at the shikigami's deed* I have MORE of those where they came from...
D can't stand seeing a young girl cry
*blinks at 'tons, zillions of copies', then calls up Suzaku to burn them all to ashes*
Suzaku
Oops ^_^
Tsuzuki *smile*
*approaches Count D* Please don`t take Hajime-chan! He`s my friend...and if you do, what will you gain? I`ll..I`ll just buy him back from you anyway! Please Count D...?
*sniffs, holding back tears*
;_;
Saya: Actually, we bought this dress for Hisoka-kun. But we have lots more, you could try on with us some other time!
Yuma: Yeah! I wanna try wearing Chinese clothes, don't you Saya?
Saya: Yeah!! But.. I wanna find Hisoka-kun first...
Yuma: Tsuzuki-chan said to check the library.
Saya: Let's go to the library then!
Yuma: See you soon Count, Tsuzuki-chan, Wakaba-chan, and Gushouhin!
Saya and Yuma walk of in search of Hisoka.. AGAIN!
*an inky, pencil-thin eyebrow raises at the sight of the shreds*
Well yes, that... Why bother destroying a copy, I wonder. Because I have tons, zillions of copies! XD *a thousand paper sheets burst out of D's silk cheongsam like a cascade, and all of them read Enma's sign*
O-hohohohohhooo~~oo!
Contract? You mean that? *points to itty bitty shreds of paper on the floor*
Tsuzuki ^^
I do not care what you say, young man. BECAUSE I HAVE A CONTRACT. *another tidal wave of ear-piercing laugher*
*suddenly spots Yuma & Saya and his expression changes considerably* My, the two lovely ladies from a couple of days ago! What a delightful surprise! ^_^
You are saying that adooooorable dress is for meee? Really? © Well I would LOVE to try it on, but I am afraid now is not the right moment....
D, caught between a lovely dress and business
*eyes widen* Even Hajime-chan? But..he`s a shinigami?
Incredible...
Legally? *raises an eyebrow* Actually, it's illegal to sell, trade or treat living conscious beings as property. And with contracts involving said living conscious beings, you cannot make them without their consent.
Hey .... Saya ... Yuma .... actually I think that dress would look absolutely FABULOUS on the China Doll!!
Tsuzuki likes his chickens ^^
*stares at Tsuzuki offendedly* Why should I bother trying to carry out such an impossible task while you here are stealing my rare species?!
Well, I do NOT care if you have taken them all away! *hissy* All I need to do is go look for them again. After all, they legally belong to me now.
D always has a card to play
*Saya & Yuma forget the dress for a moment as the Count walks in, oblivous to his shrill scream the girls say:*
Yuma: Count D! Remember us?!
Saya: Yuma and Saya! You promised to try on dresses with us sometime!
*Notice Tsuzuki isn't paying attention to them*
Saya: Ne, why is Tsuzuki-chan angry?
Confused Saya & Yuma
DAMNIT ENMA!! *realises that D is standing there looking pissed but doesn't care* Can't you talk some sense into your cousin??
Tsuzuki
Oh look, 2 more days before blondie gets a new lease of life ... *yawn*, I'm sleepy and Cousin D was such a pain just now. Oh well, time for a beauty nap ... no fear, there are 2 more days to find blondie and say s-o-r-r-y ... hahaha ... oh, I think I will sleep first (very very loudly so Tsuzuki can hear him) ... I keep forgetting where that queue is ... people have been VERY mean recently. Goodnite ...
Mean-ness runs in the bloodline
*too busy being mad at Enma to ay much attention to dress* It's gorgeous, girls, I think I saw Hisoka going to the library ...
Enma, you tell me where the reincarnation queue is before I come up there and blast your ass off!!
Tsuzuki wants his friend back
*glances at the dress* Wow...Hisoka is going to love it..or have some sort of strong emotional reaction towards the dress. Um..good work...!
A bit speechless..^^;
*just then the secret room's door opens and the man in question steps in*
Lalalalala~aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!!!! O_O *D's shrilly scream ends up blowing the few remaining window glasses out*
Uuuuwhaaaaaat in the name of all that is good and pure are you doing here?!
And where are all my new pets??
Yuma: Tsuzuki-chan! We just returned from shopping for new dresses. In the shop we stumbled upon this dress that was SO Hisoka!! Take a look!!
*Proceeds to take out humongous, pink, frilly, dress, with many bows.*
Saya: What do you think, Tsuzuki-chan? Doesn't it bring out his eyes?
Saya & Yuma, overly excited o_O
And I see Watari queuing in the reincarnation queue ... *loudly so Tsuzuki-san can hear him* but I tend to forget where that is if people aren't nice ...
Still non-repentent
*glares at ceiling* I can HEAR you, Enma-hentai!!
is it wise to call the boss a hentai?
Hee hee ... that will serve him right! Someone has no pets for his petshop (in a singsong voice) ... dum de dum ...
Uhm, Enma you're supposed to be repentent
Saya-chan!! Yuma-chan!! How are you doing? Hisoka isn't here .... hey, what's in that frilly box?
Tsuzuki forever nice with the Hokkaido girls ^^
*eyes blaze with rage* WHAT? If Count D lays one finger on Hajime-chan....he`s gone! We can`t let that happen! I won`t let that happen!!!
*doesn`t want to think of the consequences of Count D and Terazuma*
Curse that Count D!
The grateful Gushoshin help escort the various inhabitants of the Meifu back to their natural habitats.
Home Sweet Home
*Saya and Yuma stumble into the room where the Gushoushin are tied up*
Yuma: Hey! I didn't know this was here...
Saya: Ah! Tsuzuki-chan! Wakaba-chan! Hi!
*Sees the Gushoushin all dazed*
Saya: What happened here?
Saya and Yuma wandered in, in search of Hisoka
*glares at inoffending piece of paper that is offending because it's taking the Meifu animals away* Yeah, you remember him? Well, he's not getting the Gushoushin .... he can have Tera - *realises Wakaba is here, and he doesn't hate Tera /that/ much* He can't have Terazuma either!!
*Contract goes RIIIIIIIIP*
Tsuzuki is protective ^^
Tsuzuki-san, Wakaba-san ... save us and all these guys ... we got to get to the Count. He's planning to kidnap Terazuma too!
Gushoshin are glad to see them
*finishes* There you go! All done! So it's Count D...
Daijobu?
*picks self up* What in Enm- *stops, cause is still pissed off with Enma Daiou* What in the world are the Gushoushin doing here tied up?
*sees a piece of paper on the table and reads* HUH?!?! That China Doll guy is taking the chickens and 003!!
Tsuzuki likes animals
Help ...
Gushoshin all tied up
*follows Tsuzuki into the small room* Oh, you poor Gushoushins! *steps over Tsuzuki and begins untying them* Who did this to you? And 003! So that`s where you have been hiding..
Tsuzuki and Wakaba save the day! Yay! ^^;
*sends a shikigami to find source of the voices*
Follow this, Wakaba-chan!
*After running after the bird for ages through labyrinthian corridors to places even Tsuzuki didn't know existed in Meifu, they come across a little secret room ....*
Hey ..... I didn't know this place existed - wah!!
Tsuzuki tripped over the chickens lying tied up on the floor ^^;;
*looks around* You know..right when I said that, I heard something, like laughter. If its chicken voices, it must be the Gushoushins. Why don`t we stop by the library? I have to go there anyway...
Suspicious...
Hey, Wakaba-chan ... can you hear something? Something that sounds like 'shumonehelpus' or something in chicken voices?
Tsuzuki hearing things?
*nods* Yup! I think everyone is coming...Tsuzuki-chan, I`m going to see if I can bring something to the Tea Party. Oh...the possibilities are endless....triple chocolate cake. pecan pie, lemon soufflé. *smiles sweetly* Will you come then? I`ll even let you help me make the food!
Aiming for Tsuzuki`s achilles heel!
*Meanwhile at a very distant secret room of the Meifu a certain Count was practically kidnapping the newly acquired specimens for his Petshop: the Gushoushin are all tied up and packed to go, and only 003 seems to be willing. Now D is out to haunt Terazuma down*
My, this last prank of my cousin gave an absolutely wonderful outcome! ^_^ So many rare species... *bouncy* And all mine just for the sake of Enma's sign on this! *waves the giveaway contract he has forced the sulky God of Death to sign in his manicured hand* Every kami who runs a Petshop like mine must have at least a scholarship knowledge of Law, my Sofu always told me.
Soooo~~~o sorry for the loss of your librarians, Xiao Enma! But the price for my dignity stolen away is at least worth two little talking chickens!
*and D's shrilly soprano laugher shatters all the Meifu's windows*
Pet Hunter D
The Tea Party? You mean the one at the Castle of Candles, right?
*Tsuzuki train of thought:
Tea Party = Food = Castle of Candles = Earl = CENSORED*
Uhhh ..... let me think on it .... I take it you are going?
Tsuzuki tries to stay away from the Earl as much as possible
*laughs* Ara! Tsuzuki-chan...I understand. Anyway, I have an idea! First, I need to know...will you be attending the upcoming tea party? Pllleeeaasseee say you will!
A begging Wakaba?
*turns red* Yes ... I have seen the notice. I'm not sure about the first point, but I know that Hisoka isn't really out for his blood and as for the rest of it ..... *turns even redder* Uh, let's just say there's an easy way to explain it!
Tsuzuki needs to explain for sure!
Oh ... Tsuzuki-san! Didn't you see the notice on Watari's lab? It explains why he`s been missing...
All smiles!
Wakaba-chaaaaan!! Have you seen Watari anywhere?
Tsuzuki has found someone!
*becomes impaitent* That silly bird...is Watari the only one it will respond to?
a frustrated Wakaba
Has anyone seen ANYONE anywhere?
Tsuzuki is loooooonely!
In the meanwhile, Tets-chan is still chasing the kids.
Come back you kids!
Excuse me, but has anyone seen a blonde gentlemen in a white lab-coat anywhere?
Tsuzuki wants his friend back
In the meanwhile, somewhere in the Meifu, we see Enma Daiou pulling out a strange box marked "To use only in times of emergencies" ... blowing off the dust, we see him rumage through it to pull out all sorts of weird items and (yes you guessed it) more tapes ...
*walks up to Watari`s former laboratory and begins to read the notice, twirling her hair* Mou..that`s too bad! Watari-kun was so much fun..and nice too. Oh well...I guess I`m in charge of 003! *grins*
*walks about* Zero zero thhhhrrreeee? Where are youuu? Um...I have some food for you! It`s your favorite, honest! <3 <3 <3 ^_^
