If you are looking for bad luck, you will soon find it. ~Japanese Proverb
Judai yawned, stretching his arms up above his head.
It was early in the morning, Judai had gone downstairs along with Johan, but while he went to check the mail, Johan went to the second floor to give Jim and Asuka the Jim plushie that had popped up in their apartment.
They hadn't gotten any mail, but they had received another one of those chain letters.
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT.
He made his way up the stairs, rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand. A grin spread on his face when he saw Johan calmly walking up the stairs up ahead of him.
With the thought of racing him in mind, he shook out of his half-asleep state and began running up the stairs.
"Hm?" Johan looked back and saw Judai.
Just as the brunette passed him, Johan picked him up by his waist.
"And where do you think you're going?" The bluenette asked, carrying Judai with a smile.
"Hmph!" Judai crossed his arms over his chest and closed his eyes. He opened one of his eyes and looked straight at Johan's green eyes. He opened both eyes a second later and grinned.
Judai placed his arms around Johan's neck and kissed him. "We got another note," he spoke, his lips brushing against Johan's with every word.
"Hm, really?" He kissed him. "What'd it say?"
"Tonight's the night."
"Interesting."
"Mhmm."
They reached their floor and Johan made to put Judai down but the brunette clung to him. With a smile, Johan kept walking.
"You know, this reminds me of that one time we were drunk and got married," Johan said.
"Yeah?"
"Yup. You can't hold your alcohol for shit." He said with a smirk.
Judai pouted. "Alright, put me down."
The bluenette chuckled. "Oh come on Judai, I was just kidding. Besides," he kissed his cheek, "you're a funny drunk."
"Hmm… but it's not fair, you didn't get drunk."
"Heh. I have a high tolerance for alcohol, but that doesn't mean I wasn't wasted by the end of that day. I drank nearly three times more than you did. As soon as we got home and I put you on the bed to sleep, I passed out."
"Oh yeah. You were out for a couple of days."
"Yep."
They reached their apartment and Judai was reluctant, but let Johan put him on the ground.
"We should get drunk again sometime."
"Yeah, we should."
Johan opened the door and blinked. Judai raised a brow and peered over Johan's shoulder to get a good look inside.
There was the Johan plushie.
But they didn't mind that. What got their attention was the lap the plushie was on.
"Hey guys."
"Fubuki, get your ass out here." Ryo called with a roll of his eyes. He was standing outside their door with his arms over his chest. "Fubuki!"
"No! for the last two days I've gone out there and I always come back running and screaming for my life, wishing I'd never set foot out of here!"
"So you're just going to sit around in a corner for the rest of you life all because of a little bad luck?"
"That's easy for you to say, you didn't have any bowling balls being aimed at your face and you weren't chased home by a pack of rabid dogs!" Fubuki called out from… somewhere. "And I'm not in a corner!"
Ryo shook his head. "Oh for the love of…"
"Hi Ryo."
"Hm?" He turned around and saw Judai and Johan. He did a double take, then stared at him warily. "Are those… swords?"
Fubuki popped out from the threshold, curious now. "Why are you guys carrying swords around?"
Their swords were thankfully sheathed and at their sides.
Judai was making sure his sheath was fastened well while Johan thumbed the hilt of the sword, pulling it out and putting it back in.
"We're checking all the floors," Judai replied.
Ryo and Fubuki raised a brow. "Checking for what?"
Johan looked up and down the hallway before speaking. "You remember the cookies from yesterday?"
The two looked at each other. "… No…"
The younger bluenette looked up at them curiously. "Really? I could've sworn you guys were there. Anyway, we're hunting those cookies now."
"Hunting the cookies?" Fubuki echoed.
Ryo blinked before voicing his own question. "They're alive?"
"Kind of," Judai replied, looking to left and sniffing at the air a bit.
Johan put a finger to his chin, thinking out loud. "Let's just say it was a cooking class gone haywire."
Fubuki took a step back. "Cooking class?" He sounded shock if anything.
Judai looked back at him and nodded slowly. "Yeah… What'd you think we were gonna say, magic?"
"Dark magic," Ryo mumbled before Fubuki elbowed him in the stomach.
Suddenly Johan and Judai unsheathed their swords, surprising the other two who backed up a bit.
Johan extended his arm to the side, keeping the sword parallel to the ground. He sidestepped and turned around, swinging the sword and taking out five cookies.
All the pieces fell to the ground, leaving a mess of crumbs in their wake.
Judai held the grip with both hands and pointed the sword at the ground, then suddenly slammed it down, stabbing three cookies in half and driving the sword into the ground. He pulled his sword back out and left the cookies scattered on the ground.
The two sheathed their swords and looked at each other, grinning.
"We'll see you guys later!" they looked back at the other two before running off in the direction of the stairs.
Ryo and Fubuki stayed quiet, neither looking at the massacred cookies.
Fubuki hesitated. "Did you just see…?"
"Nope." The bluenette took his chance and pulled the brunette out of the apartment by the waist.
"No!" Fubuki grabbed the threshold. "I don't wanna go!"
"Too bad!" Ryo managed to pull him away from the threshold and locked the door. He then went on to drag Fubuki to the elevator, not wanting to chance the other falling down the stairs because of his struggling.
"Nooo!"
Edo walked back into his and Manjyome's apartment.
"What's wrong?" the raven asked, noticing the look on the silverette's face.
Edo crumbled up the letter in his hands. "Tonight's the night."
Manjyome blinked. "For what?"
The other threw his hands up in the air. "Like I know! Death? Doomsday? Armageddon?"
The raven opened his mouth to say something then suddenly stopped. He slowly turned around and jumped. "Holy crap!"
The Manjyome plushie was back.
"That's what started this hell!" Edo pointed an accusing finger at the doll. He walked over to it and snatched it off the table. "I hate this thing!" He nearly marched to the open window in the living room and pulled his arm back, throwing the doll forward.
Manjyome's eyes went wide as a brief flash of Johan flying out the window after Judai threw his doll out there entered his thoughts. He lunged for the doll. "No!"
He caught it just before it flew out the window.
Manjyome quickly held onto the wall as best as he could so he wouldn't end up falling out anyway. "Geez Edo! Don't do that! What if that went out the win—Is that a chainsaw?" he paled slightly and jumped away from the window, clutching the doll tightly.
Edo held a chainsaw in his hands and was glaring death at the Manjyome plushie
"I'm gonna kill it." "Uh…" Manjyome never thought he'd be defending the cursed plushie, but he took in a deep breath and began running for his life as Edo chased him around the apartment.
Jim was currently trying to chase Asuka around their apartment.
This was not what he had in mind when he thought about what they would be doing today.
Then again, he didn't expect to find a note saying TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT in their mail either.
"Asuka! Give me that plushie!"
"No!" She ran into the bathroom and Jim followed her, staying in front of the door. "You can't escape."
"I can if I use this." Asuka pulled something out from the small closet in there. Jim paled.
"Why do you have a baseball bat in the bathroom?"
The blonde shrugged. "Never know when you might need it."
Jim put his arms up in defense and took a few steps back. "Why do you want the doll?"
"Because you might do something stupid with it!"
He raised a brow. "Coming from the girl with the bat."
She hugged the plushie close. "I'm keeping it!" She took a couple steps forward, making him take the same amount back.
Oh it was going to be a long day.
Judai hung up the phone with a smile. "Alright, everyone's coming."
The bluenette put down the book on the table. "Really? I'm surprised they were actually willing to leave their places."
Judai walked over to him and sat on his lap. "Yeah well, I told them that there was a surprise here to ease everyone's fears."
"I bet."
They kissed and just sat there happily, the Johan plushie somewhere in their room.
The thing was, Johan and Judai had called up their friends and asked them all to come over to their apartment later that night. They had all been reluctant, but when Judai promised that it would be worth it and that it'll help, they agreed.
"Do you think they'll be mad?" Judai questioned, looking up at the ceiling.
Lightly caressing his cheek, Johan shook his head. "Maybe just at first, then they would get over it."
"Hm. I hope so."
A few hours later, the distinct sound of an evil cackle was heard throughout their apartment.
Judai bounced off the couch. "Yay! They're here!" He knew it had been a good idea to change the doorbell, now it was more exciting for them. "Johan, can you get the—"
The door opened, revealing the whole gang who decided to appear at once.
But Johan wasn't the one that greeted them.
It was his plushie.
Asuka's scream made Judai blink in shock. Damn, that girl had lungs.
Then again, her scream mixed with half of the group could get pretty loud.
Judai laughed sheepishly as he went to get the plushie. "Sorry guys, must of misplaced him." He picked it up then stepped to the side to allow everyone to enter.
Ryo and Fubuki were at the front of the group and they reluctantly took a step forward. When nothing appeared to attack them, they walked inside, calmer.
"So what's all this about?" Manjyome asked, taking a seat on their couch with Edo and Asuka.
"Well…" Judai thought for a bit. "You'll see." A grin.
A grin that never meant anything good for them.
Fubuki looked at him and raised a brow. Where was the sword he was carrying earlier? "How did the cookie hunting go?"
Judai looked proud. "We slaughtered 'em all." He picked up a plate on the table next to him covered with chocolate chip cookies. "Cookie?"
Fubuki paled slightly. "I'll pass."
Johan walked into the living room. "Hey guys. What's up?"
Before anyone could reply, Johan suddenly began floating in the air upside down and flew up against the wall next to him.
Everyone but the two screamed, jumping up and making for the door.
Only to be stopped by Yusuke, who was standing behind the door with the plushie of Johan he had up against a wall.
"What are you doing here?" Edo asked, hiding behind Manjyome. The raven didn't know why he did that, but he held him close anyway.
Yusuke gave them a smile that made them all step back. Judai in the meantime skipped over to Johan and grinned at him while he poked his stomach. Johan laughed but couldn't move to stop Judai.
"I'm here to thank you all."
Yusuke's words brought question to the six in front of him. "Huh?"
"What for?" Jim asked, once again trying to pull his plushie out of Asuka's hands but she had a strong grip.
"For helping me get an A." Yusuke leaned against the door behind him casually as he waited for their reactions.
"… Huh?"
Well, he was expecting something like that.
"You see, in my Psychology class one day, instead of talking about behavioral disorders, we spent the entire period discussing good and bad luck because of a student's question." He paused to see their reactions, then continued when he was satisfied. They looked like they weren't going to hurt him… yet. He looked down at the plushie in his hands. "So our professor decided to give us an assignment, he needed something to give us since his lesson plan went out the window. We had to test if luck was real as we saw it. Whether it exists or if it is just workings of the mind." He glanced over at the two who were on the other side of the living room. "I asked Johan and Judai to help. I came up with the chain letters and voodoo dolls, which are quite common nowadays."
Everyone in front of him hoped he meant the chain letters.
"Hey, this is a great explanation and all, but can you get me down from here? I'm starting to see red." Johan asked Yusuke, looking up at Judai who stuck his tongue out at him playfully.
"Oh yeah, right." Yusuke turned the doll right side up then lowered it to the ground. Johan followed.
"So none of it was real?" Ryo asked, eyebrow raised.
"Well it was all my doing. Johan and Judai just helped, that's why they said they weren't doing anything, so you wouldn't know."
"B-but the plushies…" Asuka began.
"Are just dolls," Yusuke confirmed. "Everything was planned from the moment the first chain letter appeared."
"But Johan—"
"Ah, his is real."
Judai skipped over to Yusuke and took the doll from him. He held it up against his chest. "My Johan!"
"Real? How?" Edo looked down at the Manjyome plushie his boyfriend was holding. Only Johan's was real?
"We went to a voodoo priestess and asked her to make one," Johan answered, walking up to them, then stopping beside Judai.
The brunette looked up at him, then the doll then grinned. He took off the shirt the plushie was wearing and held it upside down by the foot.
Johan's shirt came off and he went upside too, only he just stayed in the air. "Judai…"
"Sorry for deceiving you, but at least I passed."
There was silence for a few minutes before they all finally looked more relaxed than they had after they received the chain letters.
"Alright, I guess there wasn't any harm done," Ryo said at last.
Fubuki stared at him in shock. "Maybe not for you! I was almost killed! Several times! And what about the psychological damage I now have?"
Ryo rolled his eyes. "That's always been there."
Fubuki pouted. "Meanie."
And that seemed to help the others there too, for they all gave small smiles.
"I guess we should get going now that we have nothing to fear." Edo said, taking the plushie from Manjyome.
"So this was what you guys meant by tonight's the night? Tonight was the night you guys were going to tell us the truth?" The raven asked, trying to take back the plushie. Did Edo want it now that it was proved harmless? Aw, he was starting to like that thing.
Yusuke nodded. "Pretty much."
The others just gave a sigh of relief.
Thank God that hell was over with. They didn't think they could handle something like that again anytime soon.
Yusuke opened the door for them and they all began to leave.
As they were walking out of Johan and Judai's apartment, the faint smell of chocolate was suddenly in the air.
It became really strong, almost as if there was someone making chocolate cake out in the hallway.
But that was far from the truth, which they saw when they all turned around and noticed the nearly a hundred chocolate chips cookies rolling their way.
The gang didn't think twice before screaming and running away.
Johan and Judai's faces lit up when they saw the cookies. They pulled out their swords from out of nowhere and unsheathed them. "Sweet! They're spawning!"
Of course those two would like that.
Yusuke shook his head as he watched his friends run away screaming followed by apparently evil chocolate chip cookies that were followed by Johan and Judai, which were probably more evil than the cookies.
Everything had finally gone back to normal.
Down on the first floor, they all ran around the lobby, confusing and scaring some of the other residents.
Sho and Kenzan, two of their friends that also lived there and had been gone for the break on vacation out of the country walked into the lobby with all their stuff and smiles.
They stopped when they saw the chaos in front of them.
Staring in shock and wonder, the two looked at each other before saying, "Damn, what'd we miss?"
THE END.
If it wasn't for bad luck, we wouldn't have good luck at all. ~Ms. Skinner, chemistry teacher.
