Nekohanten



A medium sized dining area, with the usual tables and chairs, as well as booths

in three of the corners. The walls are covered in artwork, mostly nature scenes,

but a few of battles between female warriors and demonized male opponents. The

women, of course, are winning. The innermost wall has a counter, over which it

is possible to see into the kitchen, with five stools lined up in front of it.

In the kitchen, you can see pots on burners, ovens, bowls and glasses, as well

as a rather well-stocked bar. A menu hangs next to the counter, and paper copies

are on all the tables. If you want anything, just ask Shampoo, the beautiful

Waitress/Hostess/Cook/Delivery Girl, or Mousse, the nearsighted Waiter/Busboy/

Janitor/Cook/Delivery Boy/Peon.

Pay no attention to persistent rumors of a prune with a stick. {BONK!} ITE!

>Red XIII pauses at the doorway, growling over his shoulder.

>Tenchi says, "It's just that you growled and showed your teeth too much."

>Rin waves to Rei.

>Rei meanders in, rubbing the back of his neck. "Crowded for once..."

>Red XIII says, "It is my nature. I can not change that."

>Tenchi says, "I'm not trying to ask you to go."

>Red XIII twitches his tail, looking silently at Tenchi as his ear twitches in 

Rei's direction, hearing him enter. "More so the reason I need not frighten 

her."

>Tenchi says, "Yeah, but you don't have to leave..."

>Red XIII asks, "And what do you suggest I do then?"

>Rei takes a seat at one of the tables, exhaling heavily   . o O ( Okay... 

now... how to con a meal...   o.o )

>Tenchi asks, "I don't know...  uh, not worry when I cover her eyes?"

>Tenchi says, "That'll do, I hope."

>Tenchi says, "Besides you're nowhere near as scary as that invisible demon that 

really was a demon."

>Gourry somehow finishes his Ramen right before Lina does.

>Rei blinks   o.o

>Burn asks Lina, "Anything to drink?"

>Red XIII waves his tail silently. "Perhaps it would be easier," he growls, "If 

I simply left. You would not want to spend the entire night covering the 

child's eyes." He pauses, "Invisible demon?"

>Burn says to Gourry, "Ever get heartburn?"

>Tenchi says, "There was one...  this guy named Ushio said he let it free by 

accident."

>Tenchi says, "If I don't hold her so she looks directly at you it should be 

okay."

>Rei blinks again  o.o   . o O ( Go fig. )

>Gourry pats a tummy then looks seriously at Lina.

>Rin asks, "Do any of you know anything about a person or thing called Jiayu?"

>Gourry exclaims, "Now we talk!"

>Burn-_-*... . o O (Okay....)

>Rei questions, "Jiayu? Never heard of it."

>Red XIII shakes his head at Tenchi, "That is quite all right. And completely 

unnecessary." He looks towards Rin, shaking his head again.

>Lina looks at you, her fifth bowl still raised towards her mouth. "I'm still 

eating, Gourry."

>Gourry steals a bowl of Lina's Ramen and starts eating it, to helpher along.

>Tenchi watches Gourry and Lina eat.  His head starts to spin...

>Rei looks at the menu. But he doesn't order.

>Lina *GLARES* at Gourry ... and, incredibly, eats faster!

>Gourry reaches for another bowl

>Rin watches Rina. "Sugoi."

>Tenchi says to Rin "That's amazing..."

>Burn tilts his head to the side at the sight of Lina and Gourry eating...

*THWACK!!*

>Tenchi asks, "I wonder if it's...  Hey, Lina-san, is that a spell that helps 

you eat fast?"

>Lina's chopsticks practically pin Gourry's hand to the table.

>Rei looks at Tenchi   . o O ( Hope he has a few herbs handy   o.o )

> Gourry attack Lina's chopsticks with his.

>Gourry exclaims, "Eat faster!"

>Burn says, "Maybe I'll speak to you another time then Lina..."

>Lina says, "Gourry, if you want more ramen, *order* it."

>Gourry continues his chopstick duel with Lina.

>Gourry exclaims, "I want you to finish yours!"

>Burn . o O ( I guess they're too invovled in their little battle.... )

>Gourry steals some noddles during the duel.

>Lina continues chopstick-fencing with Gourry. "So stop fighting to steal it, 

and LET! ME! EAT!!!"

>Rei's stomach rumbles   x.x

>Tenchi asks, "Uh, who's working here?"

>Red XIII just stares at Gourry and Lina, with a slight sweatdrop.

>Gourry exclaims, "Let me help you eat it!"

>"Lina slurps down the rest of that bowl at a gulp ... and stops, bowl still 

raised, her eyes bulging a bit.

>Gourry o.O

>Gourry stops his fencing.

>A waitress walks over to Tenchi, "Can I help you sir?

>Burn stands from his seat and put his jacket back on...

>Red XIII says, "... \.o;"

>Red XIII blinks and pads away from the door to let Burn out.

>Lina lets the bowl down with a *wham!!* and thumps her chest, hard, several 

times ... finally starting to breath again with a slight coughing sound. "Gah 

... "

>Rin asks, "Are you okay, Rinahan?"

>Gourry says, "Baaaaka."

>Rei says, "Don't that just beat all."

>No, that's Lina's chest she was beating... a far cry from 'all'.

>Burn looks at Lina, "Done?"

>Tenchi says, "I'll have one of whatever kind of ramen Lina and Gourry are 

having."

>Gourry O.o as Tenchi uses his name.

>Gourry asks, "Ummm... Do I know you?"

>Lina says, "I think he's heard of you, Gourry."

>The waitress Haaaaais and saunters off..returning fifteen minutes later with 

food, glancing at Rei, "And you sir?

>Rei blinks. "Ah... um... just tea?"

>Gourry says, "My fame procedes me even here."

>Gourry smiles proudly,.

>The waitress sets down Tenchi's food and nods at Rei, walking off again.

>Rei . o O ( I don't have any fame...   =.=; )

>Rin . o O ( He's that guy who ordered all the food at Ucchan's and put it on 

Rina's tab... )

>Burn says to Lina, "Well if you're gonna be busy with your friend here, I guess 

I'll go then."

>Gourry exclaims, "OWS!"

>Gourry says, "What was that for?  Ooooo.. I didn't know you had a boyfriend 

Lina."

>Lina doesn't bother with subtlety this time. *POW!!!*

>Gourry @.x

>The waitress walks back out and sweatdrops at Lina.. then heads over to Rei's 

table with his tea.

>Gourry falls over backward in his chair.

>Lina exclaims, "He's *NOT* my boyfriend! I don't *HAVE* a boyfriend!!"

>The waitress eyes Rei, "Excuse me.. would your name be Rei by any chance?"

>Burn-_-*, "I never said that he was your boyfriend..."

>Gourry looks up at the ceiling, still in sitting position in his prone chair.. 

"That's because you're too violent and have no chest."

>Burn . o O ( All though, they do fight like a couple... )

>Tenchi tries the ramen, figuring out what flavor it is.

>Rei blinks. "... Why do you ask?"   o.o

>Burn leaves enough money that pays for both Lina's and his food.

>Burn says, "I'm gonna jet if you're gonna be busy."

>The waitress smiles, "Well we had a young girl in here a few days ago that left 

your description with us. She wanted to know  if you frequented this restaurant 

more than the one next door."

>Lina *WHAP!*POW!*(etc.)

>Gourry exclaims, "LIna..   I...   Need...  to TALK TO 

YOU!!!"

>Gourry @_@

>Rei looks back and forth   >.>   <.<    . o O ( Is this good or bad?   o.o )   

"... Hai, here. "

>Rin watches Lina and Gourry fighting in dismay.

>The waitress nodnods, "Right. In that case I have something to give to you. 

Wait here." She steps into the back.

>Lina lets out a breath, and finishes her last bowl of ramen. 

*slurp*smack*munch*gulp*snarf*chomp* " .... done."

>Burn asks Rin, "Are they always like this?"

>Rei sweats nervously   o.o;   . o O ( I hope thy didn't recall me walking out 

without paying a few times... )

>Rin says, "I don't think so... I've never met Gourryhan before, though."

Burn sighs a bit.

>The waitress steps out briefly, "Um, Rei-san it'll be in a few minutes. Would 

you like something to eat while you wait? It's paid for."

>Lina sets the last empty bowl down, and looks at Gourry. "Now what's so 

important?"

>Gourry crawls up on his knees, eyes peering over the table at Lina.

>Rei blinks. "Huh?"  o.o  . o O ( *sounds of gears turning* paid-for=free food ) 

"Ah... hmm... some rice, maybe?"

>Gourry pointspoints to Booth 1.

>Gourry crawls to booth 1.

>The waitress nods and steps into the kitchen.

>Lina_Inverse has left.

>Tenchi takes more bites and slurps of his ramen.  Odd, it's been more than 3 

minutes and he's still eating it.

>Sakura walks in from outside.

>Sakura RUNS in, "REIKUNREIKUNREIKUNREIKUN!! Honey whre have you been I've been 

like soworried and stuff cuz I like totaly haven't seen you and stuff and I was 

wondering whre you were cuz I like totally went to the park and you like

boyfriend and how've you been? n.n"

>Sakura LEAPS and glomps Rei *.*

>Rei freezes solid. "....................!?"          O.o;

>Sakura CLINGS like white on rice. And speaking of rice, the waitress comes out 

with a big bowl of it ^^

>Rin blinks.

>Rei sweatdrops. Big. "... Aheh... er... haven't seen you in, um, a while..."

>l sakura



Sakura



The girl before you is the epitome of enthusiasm and cheerfulness, as she 

practically radiates her warmth when you look at her. She appears to be at 

least seventeen or so, and her long, straight brown hair has been pulled up 

into a ponytail, the tips of which just come past her shoulders. Black eyes 

filled with curiosity and an almost predatory quality to them rove about her 

surroundings.  Currently she is clad in her work uniform, this consisting of a 

short sleeved cotton blouse, over which she wears a black vest with bright pink 

flowers embroidered in a vertical pattern.  Completing her attire she wears a 

black skirt, loose and fluttering just above her knees, and a pair of black 

flats.

Carrying:



>Sakura snuggles, "I know cuz I've like TOTALLY been so like busy and stuff and 

I missed you and I was wondering where you were and like I really couldnt' find 

you anywhere and you said you were in the park and HEY! I have that picture! 

n.n"

>Rei blinks. "Picture?"

>Tenchi asks, "Is she your girlfriend, Rei?"

>Sakura NODS and hops in Rei's lap, "HAI! n.nV"

>Sakura exclaims, "OF course I am! I have proof!"

>Rei erks  O.o; "G-girlfriend?"

>Sakura says, "See? He said it himself! n.n"

>Rei looks quite confused.   @.o

>Sakura whips out a photograph of herself and Rei .. she's glomped onto Rei and 

Rei looks in shock in the photo.. which she shows to Rei ^_^ "You're just so 

cute honey!" n.n

>Rei . o O ( ... Well, could be worse, could be getting run out of the 

restaraunt... )

>Rei blinks again. "How'd you do that?"   o.o   He stares at the photo like he's 

never seen a picture before. Wait, he hasn't.

>Rin says, "... she doesn't LOOK like a demon, but..."

>Tenchi whispers to Rin "See, he's not a demon.  How can a demon have a 

girlfriend?"

>Sakura teehee's and holds up a camera, "With this you silly! n.n"

>Burn says, "Tenchi...I wouldn't say that if I were you..."

>Rei pokes the camera. "I bet Momo would like to see that."

>Rei . o O ( Don't this just beat all   O.o )

>Sakura blinks... and narrows her eyes, "Momo? Who's this Momo? Have you been 

cheating on me REIKUN! I'll kill her!" She grabs Rei by the throat and starts 

shaking him, "WHOISSHEWHOISSHEWHOISSHE!!"

>Tenchi asks innocently "Say what?"  He seemed to have missed somethin.

>Rin whisper back to Tenchi. "That's what demons do is trick cute innocent 

girls."

>Burn asks, "See what I mean?"

>Rei chokes, reching up to clasp Sakura's hands   @.@  "... H... help... er... 

ack... She... she's a f.... friend of... my friend..."

>Sakura lets her hands get clasped, "Oh." She settles down and beeeeeams like a 

personal flashlight, "Okay." ^_^ ^_^

>Tenchi whispers to Rin "But...  but...  that's what guys who aren't demons do 

too!"

>Rei gasps for air   o.o

>Rin frowns at Tenchi. "That's why you have too many girlfriends, you're always 

thinking dirty thoughts like that!"

>Tenchi says "I don't have any g..." . o O ( Better not say that. )  "Er, I mean 

I don't have too many girlfriends."

>Sakura giggles and glomps Rei, "You're so funny ^_^ ^_^ Hey did I interrupt 

your dinner? Here lemme help," she catches up the bowl and turns back to Rei, 

"Open wiiiiide ^_^"

>Burn taps Tenchi, "Don't dig a deeper hole."

>Rin counts on her fingers without saying a word...her count goes up past 3 

before she stops and sighs.

>Rei is opening wide, as he tries to get oxygen to his brain. Obviously a doomed 

effort.

>Sakura starts pouring rice in ^_^ "Now eat it aaaaaall up Rei-kun! n.n"

>Tenchi asks, "Rin, you're not trying to count girlfriends, are you?"

>Rei chokes again, but he does swallow   @.@

>Rin exclaims, "Tenchi... you already have a daughter and you're not even 

married yet!"

>Burn has left.

>Sakura beams and pulls the bowl away to let Rei breath before starting over 

again n.nV

>Tenchi exclaims, "But Rin, that's a special case!"

>Rin nods condescendingly..

>Rei goes to say, "I.. I can e-eat for my..." He'll likely be cut off before he 

can finish, though

>Tenchi. o O ( She probably doesn't know the words genetic engineering... )

>Tenchi says, "No, really.  I mean I didn't, you know, to have Mayuka."

>Sakura does indeed cut Rei off, "Nownownownow honey that's okay, I can do it! 

Say ah ^_^ ^_^"

>Rin says, "You didn't what? o.o"

>Rin doesn't seem to know.

>Rei says 'ah'. No, wait, it's more like 'ack'. Close enough.

>Tenchi says, "I didn't...  didn't sleep with anyone."

>Gourry has arrived.

>Rin says, "So, I suppose you stay up all night in that house with your many 

girlfriends."

>Sakura giggles and dumps another quarter of the rice in n.n n.n "Want something 

to wash that down with Muffin?"

>Rei is being force-fed by Sakura   @.o

>Lina_Inverse has arrived.

>Gourry flies out of the both across the room and crashes into a table.

>Sakura is sitting in Rei's lap and feeding  - what he said ^_^

>Rei . o O ( Why me? )

>Lina emerges from the booth after Gourry, fuming. -.-;

>Cuz you're just so cute!

>Rei chokes out, "S... sur... sure..."

>Gourry ^_^;;;

>Gourry says, "Lina-san!  I got a good deal on it!  He bought it for 300 yen."

>Rin turns to look at Rina and Gourry.

>Sakura turns away and POUNDS the table, "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!!! SERVICE!!" She 

waits impatiently for a waitress to come out with tea, and then pours a cup 

full to hand to Rei n.n n.n

>Tenchi says, "Rin, no, when you talk about sleeping with someone, you don't 

mean sleep as in having dreams and snoring, it doesn't mean that."

>Lina sputters. ".... Three *HUNDRED* yen?!?!?!"

>Lina exclaims, "That's not even the price of *ONE* bowl of ramen, Gourry!!"

>Rin exclaims, "I'm not the one who was talking about all the people they sleep 

with!"

>Gourry asks, "O.o;;;  Really?"

>Rei takes the cup, gulping it down.   o.o    Probably a mistake

>Gourry says, "I guess Gold doesn't translate 1 for 1 to yen.  ^_^;;;;"

>Sakura @.@ "Ara?"

>Lina's tone is so frosty, you could use it to keep meat in. "That's a safe 

guess."

>Tenchi asks, "Rin, I didn't sleep with anyone to have Mayuka!  You know, 

'didn't'?"

>Sakura says, "Daijyoubu darling? ^_^"

>Rei coughs. "I... I can feed myself, that's perfectly okay..."   x.x

>Sakura pouts u.u

>Sakura says, "Ohhh all right ^_^"

>Rei . o O ( Better not make her mad   o.o )

>Rin nods but doesn't look convinced. "I understand..."

>Tenchi says to Sakura "Hey, you ought to meet Ryouko, she's a little like 

you..."

>Sakura stays put, niiiice and comfy in Rei's lap though ^_^

>Sakura looks at Tenchi, "Eh?"

>Gourry asks, "Well.. What now?"

>Tenchi says, "She's my, er, well, girlfriend sorta."

>Rei . o O ( Well, at least she's one of the few locals who I don't frighten   

o.o )

>Sakura ohhhhs n.n

>Lina asks, "Who did you sell the amulet to?"

>Rin says, "She's Mayukachan's mother..."

>Gourry says, "Oh what was the name of that place...."

>Tenchi nods.  "I guess she deserves to be called that."

>Sakura sits back, crossing her legs on Rei's lap, watching others and letting 

him eat ^_^

>Gourry says, "Riki's Pawn Shop.. Yeah...  I think."

>Ryouko walks in from outside.

>Tenchi exclaims, "Hi Ryouko!"

>Gourry puts a hand on the back of his head.  "Silly me.  I don't remember."

>Ryouko smiles and runs over to Tenchi to hug.

>Lina waves to Ryouko, and @whaps Gourry again. "Try harder!!"

>Tenchi holds Mayuka up and says "Say hi, Mayuka."  She doesn't.

>Gourry says, "I can't think when you hit me..."

>Sakura wavies n.n

>Rei eats slowly. Sakura is perched on his lap.   @.@

>Rin waves....

>Lina grits her teeth. "You're not thinking that well when I *don't* hit you, 

either ... " She clenches a fist. "C'mon, Gourry, *THINK!* If we can't find 

that amulet, all you can do is lead me to the place where you found it!"

>Ryouko says, "Hi there little girl."

>Tenchi hugs Ryouko back.  He's almost used to doing this.

>Sakura beambeambeams n.n o O ( That's it taaaake your time darling ^_^ ^_^ )

>Ryouko kisses Mayuka on the nose.

>Ryouko smiles at Tenchi and kisses him on the cheek.

>Rei . o O ( I didn't think I was this attractive   x.x )

>Gourry thinks.. real hard...  

>Mayuka tries to kiss Ryouko.

>Or maybe lick her.

>Ryouko smiles at Mayuka.

>Gourry says, "AH HA!   No.. that's not it."

>Gourry sits down ont he floor, Indian style to think.

>Tenchi says, "Isn't she growing fast?  I think she tried to kiss you."

>Ryouko says, "I think you're right."

>Ryouko smiles and rests her head on Tenchi's shoulder looking at Mayuka.

>Ryouko asks, "Has she been good today?"

>Donovan walks in from outside.

>Donovan enters with Ardza Blade following behind.

>Lina waves to Donovan.

>Rin waves.

>Sakura waves to the weird looking guy, still perched on Rei's lap n.n

>Red XIII glances at Donovan silently, his ears twitching forward slightly.

>Rei eats rice slowly   x.x

>Tenchi says, "Yeah, she's been good.  She hasn't asked to borrow a car or ran 

away with a boyrfirned or anything like that.  *laugh*"

>Ryouko giggles.

>Rin mutters. "Don't let her follow you're example, Tenchi..."

>Sakura beams at Rei *.*

>Donovan enters quietly, each step taken by this big man results in a slight but 

audible creak as he moves across the floor. He stops and looks around, see's a 

few familiar faces and nods to them.

>l dono



Donovan



An enigmatic man glances over, the air about him is intimidating but there is 

an over all sense about him that is calming as well. His tall wide frame 

towers over six foot and is garbed in a unique but rather tradition (for his 

culture) wear.  Donovan's strong but slender upper frame is dressed in a long 

sleeved top, gold running down his chest and a long red sleeve over his right 

arm. The left side of his chest and left arm are bare. Adorning his wrists 

are golden bracelets. Around his neck is a rather interesting article, 

another traditional peice. It is a series of rings, starting at his collar 

bone and moving up to below his throat. Draped over his chest and circling 

around his back are dark blood red beads, set in a series but seemingly not 

attached by anything. But the beads run so close together that this may not 

be the case. His lower have is covered by a cloth sash, golden with smaller 

blue ribbons intermingled in it. It splits on the side exposing his muscular 

leg. His feet are wrapped with small twines moving around his ankles. Most 

times he wears sandles to save on wear on his feet. The sash is met at the 

waist with another red shorter sash and tied up with a gold ribbon with red 

embroidery. He shifts his stance and glances over to you, cool peircing eyes 

look to you, as well as feeling as if they are looking through you. His face 

is stoic and dark, but somewhat handsome. The light glimmers off his eyes 

showing the deep pools of dark red. Decorating his forehead is a simple jewel 

the shimmers when the light catches it right. A long loose strand of dark 

auburn hair hangs over his one eye and cheek, the rest of his hair is tied 

back into a tight ponytail, braided and flows down to nearly below his waist. 

Donovan moves quietly and gracefully, surprising for a man of his size, and 

each movement seems planned but the alertness he shows proves he may be ready 

at anytime to spring into action. Though this man may stand out in a crowd, 

there seems something about him that is not so obviously on the surface.

Carrying:



>Rei . o O ( Hmm. Big guy. )

>Mousse has connected.

>Sakura dozes off z.z

>Tenchi asks, "Don't let her follow my example in what?"

>Muu-Tsu comes out of the kitchen.

>Rin says, "Having too many boyfriends."

>Tenchi says, "Mayuka's a baby!  She doesn't have boyfriends, that's a joke."

>Rin says, "Oh... o.o"

>Ryouko says, "Tenchi only has one Girlfriend, me."

>Muu-Tsu asks, "Can I help anyone?"

>Ryouko snugs a bit.

>Sakura snoozes in Rei's lap. z.z

>Rei looks helpless, thank you very much  @.x

>Tenchi gulps but snugs back.  He looks to the door as if expecting Aeka to 

suddenly appear.

>Gourry continues to sit and ponder.

>Lina sighs, glowering at Gourry.

>Rin smiles at Ryouko and nods ... tottally unconvincingly.

>Donovan makes his way to a seat, his blade follows behind just a few feet, 

makes a half cirlce around Donovan and then hovers patiently as Donovan himself 

sits down to relax.

>Tenchi blinks as the expected appearance in the doorway doesn't happen.

>Sakura snuggles, clinging to Rei quite happily thank you. z.z

>Rei blinks   O.o   "Don't that just beat all."

>Gourry exclaims, "Ah ha!  I sold it to a little old man who wanted it for his 

wife!"

>Lina facefaults. *WHAM* _._,,,

>Muu-Tsu says, "May I help you, sir?", turning to Donovan.

>Tenchi says, "Rin...  if you say that sword's a demon, I'm not going to argue."

>Ryouko looks at Tenchi face to face.

>Tenchi tries to smile back at Ryouko.

>Ryouko whispers in Tenchi's ear.

>Tenchi listens.

>Sakura z.z

>Ryouko kisses Tenchi's said ear.

>Tenchi turns red.

>Rin rolls her eyes.

>Rei . o O ( ... I think she's asleep. Whew. )

>Rei pauses

>Donovan looks over to the man before him, his expression reserved and quiet. He 

isn't a man of many words, shown by his simple answer. "Yes..wine."

>Tenchi says, "I...  I..."

>Rei . o O ( Wait a minute, how do I move now   O.o )

>Muu-Tsu asks, "Any particular sort?"

>Rin says, "I'm too tired for demons."

>Tenchi . o O ( Great.  Every time she sees a real demon she doesn't care. )

>Lina says, "Gourry, we have to find that old man and/or his wife. Fast. And/or, 

you need to show me where you *found* the blasted amulet in the first place."

>Donovan nods simply. "Red.." He then looks over towards Rin at the mention of 

the word 'demons', his eyes flash then turn back to the man taking his order.

>Gourry says, "Where I found it?  Well thats a tough one..."

>Rei certainly qualifies as one, appearance-wise  O.o

>Muu-Tsu nods and places a wine bottle and glass that were not anywhere to be 

seen a moment before on Donovan's table.

>Rin asks, "What omlette are you looking for, Linahan?"

>Tenchi says, "Amulet...  it's a thing you wear."

>Red XIII twitches an ear, lifting his head briefly o o ( ..wait, he didn't call 

my name. ) He lowers his head again.

>Sakura cuddles up nice and comfy like. z.z

>Rei exhales    x.x

>Lina says, "Something that Gourry here found, and sold ... and which we need to 

try and step a massive invasion of monsters from other dimensions."

>Rei blinks at Lina's comment. "Come again?"

>Rin says, "What does it look like? o.o"

>Gourry says, "See, I got caught in this Wild Magic blast which shot me into the 

astral plane where I landed in this astral.. which is where I found the amulet."

>Lina's tone implies that someone's gonna get toasted yet. "Gourry, can you 

describe the amulet for Rin?"

>Lina . o O ( Astral plane ... dammit, that figures. )

>Rin asks, "What airline was it?"

>Ardza moves around a little to Donovan's side, it hovers there for a moment 

humming quietly. Donovan takes the wine glass and bottle and pours himself 

some, looks to his sword and moves his hand to back it off. The blade hums, 

then takes it's position behind Donovan as he rests and drinks.

>Tenchi looks at Rin and considers correcting her, but decides not to.  . o O ( 

Too bad big city life doesn't come with a manual. )

>Ushio walks in from outside.

>Ushio enters, with Tora perched on his shoulders.

>Rin . o O ( At least he didn't pour a drink for his sword... )

>Lina ehs? at Rin. "Airline?"

>Ushio mumbles, "And  keep  quiet  ..  .." to Tora.

>Rin says, "He said it was some plane or another..."

>Mayuka yells, until Tenchi turns her to face away from Ushio, and covers her 

mouth, so you really don't hear much.

>Gourry says, "Let's see.. It's triangle shpaed, gold, carved with lots of funny 

looking runes which are filled with diamonds."

>Lina says, "Astral plane, like a plane of existence, Rin ..."

>Muu-Tsu asks, "Can I help you?"

>Rin nods but still looks confused.

>Tenchi blinks.  . o O ( It's a gold Dorito? )

>Rei doesn't follow Lina, so he does what he normally does when he doesn't get 

something. Sit quietly and frown.

>Ryouko asks, "Teeenchi?"

>Ushio scratches at the back of his head. "I guess I'll just have some 

dumplings."

>Sakura couldn't care less. She curls up comfortably and sleeps on z.z

>Tenchi asks, "Hai?"

>Donovan rests quietly, eyes closed. When he opens them they are locked over to 

where Lina sits, he watches her for the moment then glances to the man with 

her, Gourry.

>Muu-Tsu nods and enters the kitchen.

>Rei pokes at Sakura

>Mousse walks into the kitchen.

>Ryouko looks at Tenchi like he's this weeks special.

>Ryouko asks, "Let's go home... hmmM?"

>Rin asks, "Where did you say you lost it again, Gourryhan?"

>Ushio looks at Rei.

>Ushio looks up above his head.

>Tenchi says, "Hmm?  Oh, you mean because Mayuka's getting scared?  I have an 

idea..."

>Gourry says, "I didn't lose it.  I sold it."

>Tenchi says, "Maybe if I let her look that way for just a little bit without 

getting hurt she can get used to it..."

>Ryouko says, "No.. because I want you alone."

>Sakura wriggles a bit and glomps Rei's arm z.z

>Rin asks, "Who did you sell it to?"

>Ryouko wiggles her eyebrows.

>Tenchi asks, "And then look for longer and longer.  Like allergy shots.  You 

what?"

>Rei sweatdrops   O.o

>Rin . o O ( I hope they didn't eat it on the plane! )

>Ushio looks at Rei again. O.o;;;

>Tora tries to smile non-menacingly at Mayuka.

>Ryouko puts a finger on Tenchi's chin.  "I want to spend some time with you 

alone."

>Yeah right.. Tora.. smiling Non-Menacingly...

>Tenchi holds Mayuka up in Ushio's direction and she waits a second, then starts 

to bawl her lungs out again until Tenchi turns her away.

>Sakura z.z

>Gourry says, "A little old man."

>Tenchi says, "Ryouko..."

>Tora sweatdrops.

>Ryouko asks, "What?"

>Rin says, "Oh, that's good.  He should be easy to catch up with."

>Ushio mumbles, ".....  you  try  ..  be  .  ......  LESS  frightening  ..  

......  .." to Tora.

>Tenchi says, "If I say yes and come home with you and I don't do what you're 

expecting you're going to get really disappointed and feel really bad."

>Tenchi says, "I don't want to lead you on."

>Mousse walks out from the kitchen.

>Donovan watches Gourry closely, eyes narrowed, not in a threatening manner but 

rather he is studying him. . o O (A swordsmen..hmm..)

>Muu-Tsu returns with a plate of dumplings, which he sets on a table and then 

directs Ushio to.

>Gourry says, "I was hungry and needed that yen stuff..."

>Lina sighs. "Gourry no baka ... "

>Ushio pays for the dumplings and sets to eating them.

>Ryouko says, "So do what I expect."

>Rin nods to Goury. "I understand."

>Ryouko rubs against Tenchi.

>Rei finishes off his rice   -.-

>Ryouko says, "We haven't been alone in a long time..."

>Tenchi asks, "What...  what do you expect?"

>Rin . o O ( I wish I had some of that Yen stuff myself. )

>Gourry says, "You do!?  Bless you."

>Gourry says, "At least someone understands my problems."

>Ushio mumbles, "..  ..  ....  ..  ..  you  ....  ....  ...  .." to Tora.

>Rin asks, "So what was so important about this omlette again?"

>Ushio gestures at Rei.

>Sakura mumbles, "............  ..  .." to Sakura.

>Rei blinks at Ushio. "...?"

>Gourry says, "Omlette?  *_*"

>Sakura snuggles and basically makes herself at home z.z

>Rin says, "Whatever you said. o.o"

>Donovan breaks his gaze and goes back to resting. He closes his eyes and takes 

a deep drink, then lets out a long breath.

>Ushio blinks as he gets caught pointing, and changes into a non-convincing 

stretch of his arms.

>Rei peers strangely at Ushio, but shrugs it off

>Rei pokes Sakura to wake her up.

>Sakura fidgets. z.z

>Rei sweatdrops

>Sakura is a deep sleeper n.n

>Gourry says, "The Omlette.. er.. Amulet was a lock on a dimensional door...  I 

think that's what the wizard said..."

>Tora asks, "Che, brat. Do you think I know every monster? I was stuck in that 

room for 500 years, remember?"

>Rin asks, "Where does the old man live?"

>Donovan's eyes open and once again look over to Gourry as he says this.

>Rei sighs, and tries jostling her   @.o

>Gourry says, "How should I know?  I met him on the street."

>Sakura meepmrrps and giggles, "Mm.. Reikun it's so nice out on the 

oceann...zzzzzz"

>Gourry says, "He was celebrating his 40th anniversary and needed a present.. I 

needed money.  We exchanged."

>Rin says, "Good point..."

>Rei sweatdrops again. "Ocean?"

>Lina says, "You sold a magical amulet made of gold and jewels for a measly 

*THREE HUNDRED YEN?!?!?*"

>Gourry exclaims, "I thought it was alot at the time!"

>Tenchi says, "Ryouko...  I'd like to com home and talk, but I wouldn't want to 

do something that'd make you feel bad... and I just know I will..."

>Rin asks, "Gourryhan are you selling anything else?"

>Ryouko says, "Trust me Tenchi.. What I want to do won't make either of us feel 

bad..."

>Ryouko huuuugs Tenchi then takes his hand.

>Ryouko says, "Come on..."

>Gourry says, "I don't have anything else on me."

>Rin glances at Tenchi.

>Red_XIII crouches on the branch of a tree, then blinks at you and meeps ^_^;;; 

before snarling and pouncing down at a hapless bug. *Squish* (to you)

>Muu-Tsu steps up behind Lina and Gourry. "Your bill, Lina."

>Rei just kinda sits there with a resting girl in his lap   -.-    . o O ( Now 

what? )

>Tenchi gets pulled away.

>Tenchi decides to follow Ryouko.

>Tenchi leaves with Mayuka following behind.

>Ryouko leaves with Tenchi following behind.

>Ushio grudgingly gives Tora a dumpling.

>Lina digs into her purse, pulling out money for her meal and Gourry's. "Hai."

>Rin nods to Gourry. "I don't have any yen, anyway."

>Sakura grumbles and rubs at her nose *blinkblink* -.- =.= o.o

>Muu-Tsu takes the money and pauses. "O-baba might be able to help with magical 

jewelry."

>Rei says, "......."

>Sakura looks around and ponders going back to sleep. She is rather comfy -.o

>Rin asks Mousse. "Does she have a husband?"

>Rei says, "Ah... you said something earlier about girls being kidnapped...?"  

o.o

>Muu-Tsu nods "I have never met him though. I do not even know if he is still 

alive."

>Sakura blinks and looks at Rei, "Ohya! Some guy came in last night looking for 

his girlfriend. He said that the guy who kidnapped her left behind a rose o.o"

>Rin leans over and whispers to Gourry. "This might be the old man and woman 

you're looking for!"

>Rei blinks. "How odd."   o.o

>Ushio blinks "Girls are vanishing?"

>Gourry says, "Oh.........."

>Sakura nodnods o.o "But my Reikun will protect meeeeeee *.*" *glomp*

>Gourry says, "Hmm.. Oh.. I recall something about the old man I sold the amulet 

to..."

>Rin . o O ( I thought I told everyone about the kidnapping... )

>Rei blinks. "I guess so..."  . o O ( Only right after all  x.x )

>Rin asks, "What do you remember, Gourryhan?"

>Ushio mumbles, "You'd  ......  ...  ....  ........  to  do  ....  that  ..  

......  .." to Tora.

>Gourry says, "Right after buying my amulet he attacked a group of girls on the 

side of the road and yelled something along the lines of "What a haul." as he 

bounded from rooftop to rooftop."

>Rin says, "Huh? Maybe he was crazy..."

>Gourry says, "Now that I recalled he did look rather... old."

>Muu-Tsu sweatdrops. Heavily. "That is not O-baba's husband. He is a living 

problem."

>Rin says, "I'll look out for him, Gourryhan."

>Lina groans. "Happosai ... *damm*."

>Sakura wais and glomps Rei *.*

>Rin stands up and waves. "Oyasumi minna."

>Gourry asks, "You know this old man boy?"

>Sakura waves n.n

>Lina asks, "Mousse, does Happosai do anything with magic?"

>Gourry asks, "You know him too Lina?"

>Muu-Tsu says, "If Happousai is involved, it is likely that Saotome is as well."

>Rin walks out.

>Rei gets glomped   O.o   . o O ( ... I've had worse happen to me. )

>Donovan rises from his seat reaches into a bag at his side and drops down some 

money on the table. He looks over to his blade and then heads out the door. The 

blade slolwy rises up and then follows.

>Muu-Tsu says, "I know he's done some things, but I don't think he is as skilled 

as o-baba."

>Donovan walks out.

>Donovan leaves with Ardza Blade following behind.

>Lina asks, "... you mean he *does* know something about magic??"

>Sakura n.n n.n

>Muu-Tsu says, "I think so."

>Gourry says, "He said something.. about doubling his ability to collect his 

favorite things."

>Muu-Tsu makes an Ewwwww face.

>Rei is not good with women, and it's starting to show. "Um... miss Sakura? Are 

you going to sit in my lap all night?"

>Lina sighs. "Gourry ..."

>Lina says, "... no ..." She slowly draws one foot back.

>Muu-Tsu sweatdrops. "Don't destroy the resturant, Lina..."

>Gourry blinks.

>Lina finishes, " ... BAAAAKAAAAAA!!!!!!" as she @kicks at Gourry!!

>Gourry ges punted through the ceiling!!! 

"WAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh......"

>Gourry has left.

>Rei looks up   9.9

>Rei sweatdrops

>Sakura too 9.9;

>Muu-Tsu. o O (Another day, another roof repair.)

>Sakura blinks at Rei, "Do you want me too Muffin? n.n"

>Lina lowers her foot again. "Oops ..." ^^;; "Little too much English on that, 

sorry."

>Muu-Tsu sighs. "Its alright, Lina."

>Rei sweatdrops. "... They'll be closing later, and the blind guy probably wants 

me to leave then."

>Sakura pouuttts, "That's truuuuue.." she hops off Rei's lap, "But you sure are 

comfy n.n n.n"

>Muu-Tsu waves his hand. "Oh, don't worry, we'll be staying open late tonight."

>Rei replies, "... Thanks." , unsure if that was a compliment or not

>Rei turns to look at Mousee   =.=

>Muu-Tsu's eyes are fixed on the hole in the ceiling.

>Lina sighs. "If you'll excuse me, I'd better go see where Gourry landed ..." 

She starts edging towards the door.

>Rei sighs

>Ushio finishes off the last dumpling and stands. "Goodbye, everyone."

>Rei nods to Ushio   n.n;

>Tora floats back up onto Ushio's shoulders.

>Ushio walks out.

>Ushio exits, with Tora perched on his shoulders.

>Sakura giggles n.n

>Rei . o O ( ... Maybe if she was a little older.   -.-; )

>Maybe if she was the same SPECIES.

>Lina_Inverse walks out.

>Like that ever stopped anyone in BoF?

>Rei rubs the back of his neck. "..."

>Muu-Tsu shrugs and turns away from the hole in the ceiling.

>Muu-Tsu asks, "Do either of you want anything?"

>Sakura shakes her head ^_^ ^_^

>Rei blinks. He goes to open his mouth, then remembers he has no money left, so 

shuts up.

>Sakura glomps Rei, "But if Honey wants something I'll pay *.*"

>Rei blinks  O.o;   . o O ( Well there may be advantages to this. ) "... No, 

that's okay."

>Muu-Tsu smiles, pleased that at least SOMEONE is having a pleasant romantic 

life.

>Sakura BEAMS, "But I wanna!! Go one pumpkin, pick out whatever you like!"

>Red XIII, who left LONG ago, slips out before he mavs again >.>

>Red_XIII has left.

>Rei sweatdrops. "... Um, just some ramen, please..."

>Sakura n.n

>Muu-Tsu smiles and enters the kitchen.

>Muu-Tsu returns with bowl and two pairs of chopsticks.

>Rei smiles, but sweats. "Thanks..."

>Sakura beambeamglowglowbeamglowstarryeyestares *.*

>Rei sweatdrops, being used to being thrown out of towns, not fawned over   ^^;

>Sakura beams n.n

>Rei, um, eats the ramen. Feel the excitement. Whoosh.

>Sakura *.* "Want me to help you with that?"

>Rei blinks and sweatdrops. "I can eat it myself..."   n.n;

>Sakura awws, "Okay! n.nV"

>Rei . o O ( A bit... overeager   >.> )

>Sakura smilesmilesmiles.

>Sakura leans over, "Ne ne ne Reikun!"

>Rei says, "Hmm?"  o.o

>Sakura giggles and blushes "Isn't this kinda like being on a date? *n.n*"

>Rei blinks again  O.o   "Date?"

>Sakura teehee's n.n

>Rei er's. "Don't you have to know you're on a date to be on a date?"

>Sakura pikus o.o "Well that's what this is isn't it? Oh wait.. you're supposed 

to tell the other person right o.-?"

>Rei sweatdrops

>Sakura giggles airheadedly, "Oops 9.9"

>Rei says, "... Eheh."

>Sakura exclaims, "I'll remember next time. Rilly!"

>Rei sweatdrops again.

>Sakura n.n

>Rei eats his ramen   -.-

>Rei blinks. "Who's watching the herb shop?"

>Sakura blinks. "Herb shop..?" ...... 

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! NO ONE'S 

WATCHING THE HERB SHOP!!!!" Sakura jumps to her feet and glomps Rei, tossing 

money down for the food, "GOMEN Rei-kun! Gotta go!!" *ZOOM*

>Rei nearly falls out of his chair   @.x

>Muu-Tsu calmly picks up the money.

>Sakura FLIES out the door

>Sakura walks out.

>Rei says, "..."

>Rei turns to look at Mousse. "..."

>Rei says, "... I'll be leaving now."  >.>
