Golden Bells
By PommyStarChild
Li and Eriol had been gone for about 3 weeks now. Sukura and Madison missed them every day of their lives (yes, I support E+M). Suddenly the laptop computer gave off the little noise that meant, 'You Have Mail'. Sukura quickly opened the e-mail from the archeology camp. It was especially from Li and Eriol, telling the two to be at the airport the next day; they were on their way home J .

The next day found them bright and happy at the airport. The announcer said that the flight from Egypt to Japan was early. Madison whispered to Sukura "Why do I think that Eriol and Li are responsible?"

"Flight 152 from Egypt to Japan is now unloading."

Madison and Sukura hurried to the bustling crowd filled with weird hats, robes, and languages. Then Sukura saw a young man, roughly shaved, with ruffled, dark brown hair. When he saw her, it looked as though someone had lit a 500-watt light bulb behind his face, it was so radiant. "SUKURA!" he yelled, and running up to her, he hugged her. He smelled like straw, dirt, and sheep. Especially sheep. (Believe me, if you ever go to Egypt, there are sure to be sheep running through the market every 10 minutes.) But that did not matter to Sukura. Then he kissed her. J

Both blushing, they walked up to Madison and Eriol, who had apparently done the same thing.

"Now, let's get you two home," Sukura said.

"To a nice hot bath," said Madison.

"And a steaming meal,"

"And TV that you can understand,"

"And a proper shave,"

"And a comfortable bed."
