Fushigi Yugi: “The Priestess of Judgment”

 

Chapter 1: Surprise Visits from old friends

 

 

 

“Man, Miaka will be so surprised to see us, Ya know,” A man with grey blue hair said, his face looking similar to that of a fox at that moment. He turned to smile at the other members of their group, a fiery red head, a beautiful looking purple haired man, a tall stocky green haired man, a brunette little boy, and a tall handsome man with black hair. The final member of the group stepped forward, a frustrated frown on his face as he looked up at the others.

“You guys are lucky I came at all to get you. I had to cancel a date with Miaka because of this. Oi…” *he rolled his eyes, running a hand through his green hair.

 

“Tama, you know we appreciate it a lot. Besides, we'd be clueless in this world without you anyways.” The blue haired man spoke again, the smile still on his face, “Besides, we didn't work so hard to get these four back to life if we thought it was a bad idea, ya know!” He indicated the four, save the red head behind him. Nuriko, Chiriko, Mitsukauke and Hotahori wouldn't be standing there otherwise, and Chichiri pointed that out easily. It never truly seemed to matter how it happened, only that they all had their bodies back.

 

“Can we get wit it or not?? I wanna see Miaka!!” The red haired, Tauski complained.

 

“Let's go,” Tama sighed. “And please...keep your mouths closed and no drooling or staring in awe until we are out of public?”

 

The black haired, Hotohori, commanding in stature agreed, “Let's roll.”

 

The group began to make their way towards Miaka's home, just happily walking along, never noticing that a bright flash of light streaked over head, as if a forewarning of things to come, heading in the same direction as they.

“Miaka!!! You're taking to long in there!!” Yui shouted into the bathroom door at Miaka's house.

 

“Sheesh!! No Kidding! Did you fall in?” A brunette standing next to Yui laughed earning a laugh from Yui as well. “Do we need to grab Keisuke?”

 

A frustrated sounding voice came from behind the door, “Don't you dare, Cat!! I'm coming out as it is!”

 

(1/2 hour later)

 

“Finally!” The two voices cried in unison as they shook their heads in amusement. It just seemed a bit funny to them that it had taken Miaka thirty minutes to get herself out of the restroom.

“Serves you right for being such a pig..” Yui scoffed at her. Miaka just winced and grinned.

 

“You won't change her Yui, she'll stay that way..” Cat teased her from where she stood. Crossing her arms, she leaned back against a wall.

 

“But I like my food,” Miaka whined, earning a sigh from all who were present around her. Shaking her head, Yui lead the way to the living room to flop over onto the couch* “So…what's the plan people?”

Miaka frowned slightly, “Well, my plans were cancelled...Tama can't come.”

 

“Sorry to hear that Miaka, but I'm still scheduled for that date with Tetsuya at 6:30 tonight.” Yui replied, grinning from ear to ear. “I had better head out so I can go and get ready. I'll see you girls later!” With that, she headed out, to the amazement of the rest of the girls in the room.

Blinking slight, Cat stood, shaking out her hair from her face. Pulling it back, she expertly tied it back from her face with a quick gesture. “So…what are we going to do now?” Silence permeated the room as the girls looked at each other curiously. Yui shrugged, looking at her watch.

“You girls are on your own. I have that date with Tetsuya!” With that Yui winked, smiling as she picked her bag up and headed out the door in an almost sauntering pace, leaving two confused girls in her wake.

 

“When it comes to that guy…she never falters…does she?” Cat asked, lifting her head as she blinked slightly. She placed her hands on her hips, tilting her head in a slightly confused gesture.

 

“Nope…never does. But what are we going to do now?” Miaka questioned as she nodded. Raising an eyebrow, she noted the look on Cat's face as the girl lifted her head, “Ok, what are you plotting?”

 

Cat grinned, looking at the young woman in the room with her, “Nothing much...just what I'm going to buy for dinner. Care to help me decide?”

 

Miaka's eyes grew bright as she jumped up and down, nodding happily “Pizza!!! Pizza!!”

 

“Alright, alright!” Cat laughed, turning about as she headed to grab up the phone, pulling out her wallet in hand. Making the trek to Miaka's room, she pulled out the phone book to look up the number to the closest delivery place as she pushed her brown hair from her face in a way that she really didn't notice.

 

Smiling, Miaka turned to head to the couch. She had really scored this time with the food. Cat was going to pay! As she began to sit down, the doorbell rang. Sighing, she stood up once more, heading to go answer it, “Hello?”

 

“Hey, Miaka.” She knew that voice, and instantly flung her arms about his chest. “Taka! I can't believe you're here. You canceled the date today as it was.” Despite her tone though, she laughed happily, smiling up at her love and boyfriend. Her eyes closed slightly as she leaned up, reaching for his lips in a small request to be kissed. Taka leaned in, his face closing in on hers fast, taking no notice of anything else as he smiled lightly, eager to give as she to receive.

 

“Ahem! Love birds…let us in!” A cocky, familiar voice rang out, instantly jerking Miaka's head up from where she had it. Taka scowled at the warriors behind him as Miaka turned her attention to them. “Tauski, it's you! Nuriko too!” She cried out happily, smiling in excitement. Her warriors were paying a visit, forget the fact that some of them should be dead or even the fact that they weren't even supposed to be able to come through the book as it was.

 

The warriors stepped in, smiling in their own ways at the young priestess that had grown on them in their previous adventures. This was the young lady they were proud to call friend, and happy to defend with their lives. Miaka could only grin as she led Hotohori, Chiriko, Nuriko, Tauski, Mitsukauke and Chichiri past Taka and into the living room. In her great joy at seeing her friends, she had forgotten one simple fact, or person. And that very person, ho as stated before, forgotten till now, walked in the room at that very moment, looking up from the phone book she held.

 

“Miaka...two questions. One? Why is it that every single food place, delivery and carry out or whatever else has hearts, stars and little marks of various kinds next to them to show their places? Two? What do you want on you pizza?”

 

The room became utterly silent, ad people turned their heads to face Cat, blinking in surprise as they saw the young woman for the first time. She looked up at them, her eyes widening at the stares, noticing that suddenly she would have to be paying for a lot more food, “One more….why didn't you tell me you had company coming over?” Her voice turned dry from the slight frustration she felt in the matter.

 

Miaka flushed slightly, realizing that she had forgotten all about her, “Umm…everything on it?” She grinned sheepishly, awaiting to see if Cat would blow up in her face.

 

Sighing in defeat, the brunette nodded, “Alright, I'll go order it now. At least I know there are more people…sheesh..if I had known there would be a small army over…” She continued muttering as she turned to go into the room again to make her call for the order.

 

Taka began to laugh at the irony of it, seeing the surprised looks between everyone in the room, “Maybe I should go offer her some money to pay for it…that's a lot of food to buy.” He snickered to himself, knowing that no one else knew who she was. Turning to face the crew, he spoke once more, “That was Cat, our resident singer and all around cook. Oh, and please…keep your mouth shut Tauski.” He grinned at the red-head with that, beginning to laugh as he turned to take up his seat on a couch.

 

Tauski blinked, shutting his mouth as he glared at Taka. “Hey! I can stare, gawk or do whatever I want….that's what you get for dealin' with a bandit!” He shouted back, “Know you..OMPF! OW!!” Tauski suddenly found his head stuck in the wall with a Nuriko standing in the place he previously stood, smiling innocently.

“Yes…ok, I understand. Fourteen of them you say? Alright…I'll come by to pick them up,” Cat nodded on the phone. Standing up, she put the phone back on the hook, and closed up the book. She sighed, knowing that her money was flying out the window as it was. She began to travel the distance to the living room as she pushed back her hair, tying it with the scrunchy on her wrist. Smiling, she looked up at the ceiling, “Hmm…the red head was kinda cute there. Dunno…maybe I'd better stop that thought.”

 

She shrugged, smiling as she looked at the people arranged on the couch. “Well now, glad to see everyone is comfy.” She chuckled as she saw the red head's jaw drop and the rest of them smile at her gently. She nodded, looking at them, “Well, I'm Cat. Nice to meet you all.”

 

As introductions were made, she paid attention, memorizing the names as they were slung at her. Mitsukauke…Nuriko…Chiriko….Chichiri….Hotohori… ;Tauski. She chalked them up in her mind for recall later as she glanced over at Taka and Miaka. “Well, I have to go get the pizzas. Ten seem to be too many to deliver much less the fourteen I ordered. I need someone's help. Anyone willing?”

 

Chichiri's eyes seem to, if possible, go even more like a fox's as he stood up, instantly volunteering someone, “I vote for Tauski! He's a sure hand at that kind of stuff, ya know!”

 

Tauski immediately turned red and looked ready to kill as he glared at Chichiri. Looking back at Cat though, he diffused, smiling slightly. “If ya don't mind.”

 

“Not at all! Let's roll!!” Cat smiled cheerfully as she turned about, walking to the door. Tauski got up quickly, and headed out on of his own, much to the amazement of the others.

 

“That's a closet, Tauski, a closet!!” Taka cried.

“So….How did you guys actually make it here to this world? I thought the book was gone forever,” Miaka said, lifting her head to look at the warriors of Suzaku. She blinked slightly, tilting her head to the side like an odd little bird. Smiling slightly, she sighed.

 

Chichiri looked up from his seat and pointed to Taka, indicating that he had all the answers. Nuriko was merely looking smug at the thought that Tauski was in deep water this time, and Mitsukauke focused on Chiriko who was busy looking in a book of Miaka's. Hotohori, busily adjusting his sleek suit looked up as well, his gentle smile lining his lips. How they all missed being able to talk to their priestess…oh how much they all did. And not just to make fun of her…no, definitely not that.

 

Taka smiled at the love of his life, lifting a worn red book to show Miaka, “Simply put...it wasn't destroyed. It appeared in my house at one point in a strange burst of energy. Then I heard the other warrior's requests. Well, I had to help them out…they know nothing of this world as it is.” Taka grinned his `I'm a hero” smile and sat back.

 

“Oh!!!” Miaka smiled happily, nodding as she saw the book. Most of it went over her head, busily wondering when the food would get there. Everyone in the room looked flustered and stared incredulously at Miaka's stomach. It was going in full throttle yet again.

 

Taka groaned, leaning against his arm rest, “Oh Suzaku… hope those pizzas get here soon.”

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_* _*_*_

 

Cat was busy relaxing against her seat. The mission to get the pizzas was a success, barely. Tauski had nearly assaulted the pizza man for some odd reason when he saw the giant ovens, exclaiming that they were going to attack at any moment. Sheesh….was there anything normal about this red-hot head? Shaking her head she thought, `no. Probably not.' Looking forward at the road, she eyed Tauski from the corner of it. She grinned at his dumb founded expressions at the windows. Earlier, she was afraid for his life and kept the top of the convertible up. She still did, but now it was just plain amusing. If she had left it down, he would have fallen out. Not a good first impression for anyone.

 

“Wow! Cat! Look at how fast that one's moving! That's faster then any war horse I've seen. And you said that was a…c-car? Right?” His eyes were bright as he looked back at her again.

 

Beginning to laugh, she shook her head, “Yes Tauski. That's a car.” This was ridiculous.

 

He looked at her, sitting back in his seat as he looked at her. Smiling, he thought of a question, “So….Cat? I got a question.”

 

“Again? What is it this time?” Came the amused reply.

 

“Why do you call yourself Cat?”

 

“My real name is to long. Kamiamra is just a little to long in my book. So I shortened it.”

 

“Oh….Got another one”

 

“What is it this time?”

 

“What do you do? Are you a warrior? Or something else? You don't seem like a geisha.”

 

She coughed at that, her eyes widening. “I should hope I'm not a geisha! And as for the rest? You could call me a warrior, but for the most part I sing in this city. I'm apart of a band.”

 

“Ohh…..” He has absolutely no clue what a band is, “Sounds nice.”

 

“It is, so…we're almost here.”

 

“Okay!!” He smiled like a little kid, returning to the window.

Miaka sat where she was, listening happily as she munched on a snack. She watched the friendly chatter between her good friends with pride. After all, it wasn't often that friends from ancient China appeared in your household after all. Her stomach, satiated for the moment, relaxed as she crumpled against the back of her seat. Reaching over for it, she grasped the “Universe of the Four Gods” in her hands. It had been so long since she first started the adventure for it. And many adventures that she would never give up the memory of. Sighing slightly, she looked upwards and sighed. Taka caught her glance and winked at her. HE knew what was on her mind…but then again…he usually did. They seemed to be that close, and they were even engaged at that point. She would never allow that to be broken up. She'd do anything to make sure that it was alright.

 

“So…Miaka. What have you been up to?” Nuriko asked.

 

Snapping out of her daze, she looked over at Nuriko, “Well, finishing up school for the most part. I have to get through high school before I can get married,” She smiled sweetly over at Taka, who yet again, smiled sheepishly back. “Anyways, how's life in Konan?”

 

Hotohori began to reply as a red light filtered into the room. The book in Miaka's hands lifted up and floated over the table. Their eyes widened as they saw the dormant magic awaken again. Taka rushed to Miaka's side, wrapping his arms about her as they all began to fade into it, the book falling to the table, having taken it's warriors and priestess back into it's folds.
