The Sleepover

A Slayers Fanfic By Xel’sGirl

Nasaki looked wistfully out the window of her room. She was impatient to get going. There was a big sleepover at Rei’s house that night. She and Natsume were going, even though their parents weren’t on best terms with Rei’s father, Xelloss. Natsume’s mother and father, Amelia and Zelgadiss, had talked out their problems with Xelloss, and they were doing better. The three girls were good friends. Rei’s mother, Filia, always made them feel welcome at their house. Nasaki was hungry. She walked into the kitchen, and looked in the refrigerator. There were mounds of fish, cheese, bread, everything you could think of. She pulled out a hunk of cheese, and bit in. It was devoured in about 4 seconds. Just then, Nasaki’s mother and father came home. Her mother, Lina, was short and had long red hair. (And shall I not mention what else?) And her father, Gourry, was tall with long blonde hair. “Nasaki! Come on now dear! Time to go!” Nasaki knew better then to disobey, but she wouldn’t have anyway, because she WANTED to go now! She ran down the hall, and skidded to a stop at her bedroom door. She ran in, snatched up her overnight bag, and slid down the hall again. She rushed out the door, yelled “Goodbye!” to her parents, and with one word, “RAYWING!” she flew off towards Rei’s house. In her bag was a toothbrush, toothpaste, a flashlight, clothes, a hairbrush, and a bunch of videotapes of the girl’s parent’s adventures. Otherwise known as The Slayers First Series. She landed in front of Rei’s door, where Rei was just greeting Natsume, who had been walked over by her parents. Nasaki walked in the house. The smell of baking cakes, and tea. This was how Rei’s house always smelled. Nasaki loved the smell. Natsume and Rei came in behind her. They both held up a bunch of video tapes. Natsume had The Slayers NEXT, and Rei had The Slayers TRY. They would watch until the wee hours of the morning. They retreated to Rei’s room. They all showed off their pajamas. Nasaki’s pajamas had pictures of Fireballs, swords, and Dragon Slaves on them. Natsume’s had pictures of the word ‘Justice’, and cups of coffee on them. Rei’s nightgown was beautiful. It was a deep velvety black, studded with purple and gold stars. “My mom made it for me.” Rei said when Nasaki asked her where she got it. “Wow.” Was all Natsume could say. “C’mon! Let’s get watching!” Rei shouted. They started. They whisked through The First Series. Filia came into the room after the first episode of NEXT. “Hello girls, is everything okay?” She asked. “Yes.” All three girls said at once. “Good.” Said Filia. “I just brought you some cakes and tea!” “Thank you!” The girls shouted as Filia set down the tray, and walked out the door. By the time the cakes and tea were long devoured, and they finally finished TRY, there were many angry remarks coming from Rei’s room, such as:

“I like Sylphiel.”

“WHAT!?!? Why?!?! SHE NEARLY DESTROYED THE WORLD!!!!!!”

“What about Jillas?”

“JILLAS?!?!?! HE’S A PYROMANIAC FOX!”

“DILGEAR?!?!? Why on EARTH would you like DILGEAR!?? HE’S A TROLL/WEREWOLF HALFBREED!”

“I don’t understand WHY you don’t like Noonsa and Rahanimu!”

“WHY?!?!?! THEY’RE FISH MEN!”

“Personally, fish men are not my type.”

Rei was the only one who even BARELY kept her cool. But finally, they all lost it. In their pajamas, they were all at different corners of the room, magical energy was growing in all their hands. “YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER THEN TO MESS WITH THE DAUGHTER OF LINA INVERSE, BANDIT KILLER!” Shrieked Nasaki, a Fireball growing in her palm. “I WILL FIGHT YOU IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE!” Yelled Natsume, an Elmekia Lance in her hand. “My Dad has taught me a thing or two about magic!” Rei said. In her hand was a Valis Rod. They were about to shoot the spells at each other, when there was a creak outside. They turned the spells towards the open window. Three cries of battle were let out. “FIREBALL!”

“ELMEKIA LANCE!” “VALIS ROD!” Then, with the crash, boom, and everything, an outside tree blew up. They all rushed to the window. Outside was a very angry looking drainpipe. “Ooooops” Said Rei. “We blew up the drainpipe! It was what was creaking!” They all got into their respective sleeping bags, and yawned. After a long night of cake eating, tea drinking, Slayers watching, and drainpipe and tree blowing up-ing, they all fell asleep. The next morning, they all woke up, and brushed their hair. Nasaki with her long, long red hair, Natsume with her short black hair, and Rei with her somewhat long fluffy purple locks. They got up, dressed, and went down to breakfast. After they had eaten, Rei said to Nasaki and Natsume, “You’d better get going before my mom finds out about the drainpipe and the tree.” She said. They all hugged, and Nasaki and Natsume went flying home. When Nasaki got back to her house, and Lina asked her how the sleepover went, she simply answered, “Fine.” Lina nodded. Nasaki ran to her room to unpack. She smiled at the memory of blowing up the tree and drainpipe. It was certainly a sleepover to remember.
