Fushigi Yuugi Fan Fiction / Slayers Fan Fiction ❯ Sibling Rivalry ❯ Chapter 3

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Hello and welcome to chapter three! I still don't have a plot. But who really cares! I know you all read this far just to see Tasuki get beat down by his sister. ^.^ I am evil and I an damn proud of it.

Now I don't know if any of you good readers know this, but I was in the local video dealership today and a pretty black DVD case caught my eye. After that I realized it was, in fact, Fushigi Yugi. Now I have seen the other two DVD sets for Fushigi Yugi, The first half of the series has a red bird and the second half has a blue dragon (I think that is what it was...). Well, lets just say I was confused by this black container that was much smaller than the other two boxes and I asked the nice lady behind the counter if I could see it. I looked it over and I felt my eyes well up with tears. I had found the one thing I wanted to see once I finished Fushigi Yugi.

It was both, count them, BOTH OVA's!!!!! Now it was far too expensive for a broke fangirl to buy. (It was like, $75.00) Trust me I will turn on the girlish charm and persuade my loving daddy to buy it for me. But I want all of you to know what I found and...*watches as all the readers sign off and run to the video store* Um...ah...well here's chapter three for everyone with patience or are as broke as I am...

"Hotohori-sama!" Nuriko burst into the throne room and ran up to the emperor. "There are intruders! They just--"

Nuriko was cut off when the doors to the throne room were kicked in by a short redheaded woman. Behind her she dragged another woman who wore a beautiful pink dress unlike anything both Nuriko and Hotohori had ever seen.

"There!" The one with the attitude practically threw the younger one. "This is the throne room! The king or emperor or duke or whatever runs this hell-hole will be here shortly!" With that she turned and stormed out, leaving the other girl to stare in shock at the ruler of the country.

"Uh..." The girl gulped and looked dumbfounded. "I...I am sorry about her." She blushed. "I-"

Who are you?" Hotohori stood from his throne and walked toward her.

"Ah..."

"Yare Yare, Fillia-chan." Xellos wiggled his finger at the dragon. "You're always so mad." He poked her nose and smiled wickedly.

"I'm only mad when you're here!" Fillia barked. Her tail shot out behind her. If she wasn't holding little Val, she knew that baka mazoku would be eating Mace-Sama.

"Fillia-Mama!" Val struggled against his mothers hold. "Mommy! I wanna walk! I can walk!"

"Yeah, Fillia-mama!" Xellos pouted. "Let Valguav walk. He is a big boy and your just a bad mother."

"Xellos..." Fillia snapped. She put Val on the ground then wound her fingers tightly around Xellos' neck. She throttled the poor mazoku even after he turned blue. "I will KILL YOU!!!" She screeched.

Xellos broke out of her hold. "Aww, you just love me and are hiding it!" Xellos flicked her cheek. "Well too bad! You can't have me! I already gave my soul away."

Fillia turned red in anger and pulled out her mace and smacked Xellos upside the head with it. At that Xellos grew mad and taunted her even more.

Val watched his mother and father-figure duke it out. The baby Ryuzoku shrugged and walked away. They always fought and it was not any fun to watch anymore.

He turned a corner and saw the tapestries hanging off the walls. "Pretty!" He mewed and touched the red silk. "It's soft too!" He laughed and let the material brush over his face. "But why do these people hang their carpets on the wall? If they don't want dirty shoes on them, they should just have people take their shoes off at the front door."

"Row?"

Val turned and looked down. A small kitten sat at his feet. He laughed and sat on the ground and began to pet the kitty. "You're as soft as the carpet!"

The kitty purred and rubbed herself against his arm. She mewed every few seconds then nipped playfully at his fingertips.

"Tama-neko?" A tall man rounded the corner and spotted Val and the kitty. He was much taller than the toddler, but he had a nice face.

"Hello!" Val smiled up at the man. He was a little disappointed when the kitty ran away from him and up the mans arm. The small kitty settled herself on his shoulder and mewed again.

"Hello." The man smiled and sat next to Val. "What's you name, little boy?"

"I'm not suppose ta talk to strangers." Val pouted.

The man smiled as he heard that. "Did you mommy teach you that?"

"Yep!" Val smiled. "My mommy knows everything! And if she don't know it Xellos-daddy does!"

The man laughed. "Your parents sound very smart. "Where are they now?" The man looked down both sides of the hallway and saw no one.

Val shrugged. "They were fighting again, so I left."

The man sighed and shook his head. "That's too bad they were fighting." He smiled. "My name is Mitsukake and this," He motioned to the cat on his shoulder. "This is Tama-neko."

"I'm Valguav, but my mommy doesn't like the last part of my name and only calls me Val."

"I thought you weren't suppose to talk to strangers."

"But you're not a stranger anymore."

Zel sighed. He was now lost in the maze-palace. Not only was he lost, he found out the big dumb bird these people worship grants wishes to only it's priestess. He also found out the priestess was this idiot girl from another world and she already thought up her damn wishes.

'Saving a country, Ha!' Zel thought as he rounded another corner. 'The other wishes are probably things like cloths and food.'

"Hold it!" A man from behind him yelled. Zel noticed the voice sounded remarkably like his own. "You! The intruder! Stop!"

Zel sighed and turned. The man standing behind him wore traditional red Chinese clothing. He had long dark teal hair that was pulled back with a red ribbon. The young man that stopped him reeled back in shock and gasped.

'Damn it!' Zel mentally swore. He really hated his physical from.

Amelia gulped. She stood in a room with a young man and a young woman. Both were eyeing her and making the princess very uncomfortable.

"I...ah..." She couldn't turn her eyes away from the young man in front of her. His brown hair was pulled back and, aside from a few strands, out of his gorgeous features. Amelia had to watch herself. If she didn't, she knew she would drool all over herself.

The traditional red royal garb he wore did resemble a dress, but damn it looked good on him.

The woman with him wore a bright blue kimono that brought out her lavender eyes. Her long violet hair was put into an elaborate design on the top of her head. She was very striking. Amelia guessed this was the this man's wife. If she wasn't she should be.

"Ah...Sorry about Miss. Lina." Great starter.

The man not much older than herself gave her a look. "Your friend is destroying my palace."

Yeesh, boy was this guy ever stuck up. Calling this 'his' palace. He was all of eighteen. He couldn't run a country. He was far too young. The crown prince perhaps, but Amelia could see from the start off that he was a spoiled brat.

Oh well, she didn't want to know what would happen to her if she did anything else to piss this guy off. Why not let him call it his palace and his country. It couldn't hurt.

"I can not control Miss. Lina. Though it would be helpful if I could."

"Who are you?"

"I am Princess Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune." She curtsied. "I am here to speak to the emperor."

"Peace treaties between out two countries," He did not look happy. "Am I right?"

"Yes." Oh the irony. She swore she would kill Lina for this. She would strap that redhead to the wall and--

"You talk of peace treaties, but you destroy my palace. Tell me why we should negotiate...Better yet, tell me why I shouldn't lock you up."

Oh crap. "Well, Miss. Lina is not from my country. In fact I don't even remember where she is from. My father hired her to protect me from danger."

"I don't think anyone in the right state of mind would mess with that girl."

"Miss. Lina has gotten a bad reputation for her attitude. Most of what they say is true. She is destructive, but she is loyal."

The prince laughed. "I know what you mean." He moved closer to Amelia. "I have studied all I could on your country, as you probably did mine. I found a liking to some of your customs. Like this one." He took Amelia's hand in his and lightly kissed the back of her hand.

Amelia blushed. Smooth, real smooth.

"I have your name, but you still don't have mine. I am the Emperor, Saihitei Seishuku."(Ooh! Look! Melyn knows his actual name!!)

"What?!" She accidentally voiced what she was thinking.

"Surprised, Princess Amelia?" The Emperor smiled. "I don't blame you. Most people are surprised by my age."

"I'm so sorry!" Amelia gained control of herself and blushed in embarrassment. "I just didn't realize!"

"I assure you, it is quite all right. It happens more than you think." The Emperor laughed. He motioned to the woman he was with. "This is Korin."

Amelia bowed to the Lady. "Hello."

"Come with me, this throne room is far too big for peace treaties." Amelia followed him with Korin. "Now, I want you to tell me about your country."

Tamahome reeled back in shock. He had come to stop the intruder and met a monster. This thing was alive! But it looked like it was made out of rock. It's hair appeared to be wire. Tamahome hoped to Suzaku that this thing would just leave the palace. He knew it would be a hard enemy to beat...Literally.

Tamahome jumped into a fighting position. "What are you?! What do you want?!"

The monster groaned and rubbed it's temples. He drew a sword. "Look. I really don't want to kill you."

"What are you!" This being sounded exactly like him! Nakago must have sent it.

"I'm HUMAN!" The monster screamed. "That is all you need to know."

"Than what do you want?" Tamahome felt the oni symbol flair up on his forehead.

"I can to see the Suzaku thing." The thing sighed. "I thought it would hold magic. Big dumb bird." Tamahome heard him mumble under his breath.

Tamahome growled. No one would break into a palace to see a golden statue of a god. It was ridiculous to think it held magic. Tamahome lunged at the being. He would have to take it down alone.

The thing stepped out of the attack and lightly hit Tamahome in the back of the neck and knocked the young man out cold.

"Idiot." Was the last thing Tamahome heard before he passed out.

Gourry looked up from his feast when he heard the kitchen door open. A small teenage girl walked in. She wore a brown dress.

"Hello!" Gourry waved with a chicken drumstick in his hand.

"Hi!" The girl walked in. "Is it ok to eat? I've been yelled at before for eating before dinner."

Gourry looked both directions. "I don't see anyone. Want to join me?"

"Ok! I'm Miaka!"

"I'm Gourry!"

*****

Tasuki!!!!" A woman bellowed.

"Oh crap! Oh crap! Oh crap!" Tasuki jumped around in fear as he heard feet stomping from around the corner. He found no place to hide in the small hallway.

"Tasuki!" Chichiri screamed as the bandit went to his last resort and flung himself out a window. Chichiri didn't have time to look out the window to see if his friend was all right.

Right as he screamed his friends name a short woman with the same color hair as Tasuki's stormed down the hall way. Chichiri could see her ruby eyes flaring with hatred.

"You!" She screamed and pointed at Chichiri. "Where is Tasuki?" She grabbed his shirt and pulled their faces inches apart. "Where is that low-life!" She spat.

"Uh...I don't know, no da!" He smiled nervously. He could see this woman was Tasuki's sister. The two looked almost identical. He could also see why his friend was now terrified of the entire female population. Chichiri himself would never look at a woman the same way again. "I think he said he was going to the gardens, no da."

The woman eyed him for a few minutes longer, than decided his story was true and stomped down the rest of the hall and made her way to the gardens.

"Tasuki?" Chichiri whimpered once she finally left. He leaned out the window and saw Tasuki hanging on by his finger tips. The ground was a good twenty feet away.

"Help." Tasuki squeaked as he felt his grip slipping.

Chichiri pulled his friend back inside. "Was that your sister! No wonder you leapt! Next time I'm going with you, no da!"

Tasuki bolted down the hall in the opposite direction of his sister. "Run you fool! Once she finds out I'm not there your a dead man!"

Chichiri gulped and ran as well. "Wait up, no da!"

*******

I feel bad for Tasuki. *sigh* I hope he will have a nice funeral. Lina is going to kill him, I know it...well no I don't. I haven't written that far yet. Besides, I wouldn't give away the ending...*looks both ways suspiciously.* Tasuki and Lina make up and they run off together in a meadow of pretty flowers.

Ok, I lie. I won't have them frolic. That would be wrong. I'm gonna have NAGAKO frolic! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!
