Chapter 5

Disclaimer: I do not own GH or else somebody would have died a terrible death in the end. Hehehe...


"Holy water cannot help you now

Thousand armies couldn't keep me out

I don't want your money

I don't want your crown

See I've come to burn your kingdom down."

Seven Devils/Florence


Oh boy! The weather forecast didn't say anything about rain!

She used her bag as an umbrella above her head pacing through the streets exceptionally fast for a 'indolent' as herself, that's what Naru would call her and yes, she knew what that meant.

Taniyama Mai huffed as she thought about it. She looked for a place to take refuge till until the rain stopped.

Oh God! Why do all the bad things only happen to me!

She touched the tip of her skirt which was now completely drenched in rain. She spotted the office of SPR and decided to go there instead of her house which was another mile away. Upon entering the first thing Mai did was take off her coat and place it near the heater to dry. She always hated it when it rained, it seemed so sad,so depressing making her feel dizzy...

Mai shivered and hugged herself when suddenly she heard a strange noise coming from her boss's office.

Maybe, I'm just hearing it all in my head…

She laughed nervously and boiled water and tea leaves in the kettle, silently, hearing the heavy pouring of the rain against the metalled roads.

She heard hushed voices from the office.

That arrogant narcissist called the day off and is himself working, I know that I'm loud and all but that jerk didn't had to be downright rude about it.

Mai's hand turned into a fist ready to punch something.

Wait a minute, it could be our own private world and then I could ask him about his dyed hair…

She beamed brightly at those thoughts, glad that she had make enough tea for two.

She wondered loudly that how exactly was her narcissistic boss working without his beloved tea, probably, that's why there's so much noise.

She balanced the tray on one hand while knocking the door with the other.

….

….

….

Jeez, someone should actually teach this jerk some manners!

"Naru I made you some tea, you know you shouldn't overwork yourself, working on Sunday." Mai exclaimed twisting the doorknob, pushing the door open with her back.

Instead of the usual narcissist sitting on his desk reviewing papers and files, Yasu and Masako were wearing aprons with paintbrushes in their hands…

Surely, she was fantasizing all of this.

Moreover, the walls were painted yellow and blue with posters of eminent baseball players and singers.

And the perfect medium had painton her pretty face.

WHAT!?

This has got to be a dream. Wake up Mai, hurry up..


Oh man!

The bespectacled assistant never expected someone to turn up at the office on Sunday, save Naru or Lin (Madoka said she'd make sure that that doesn't happen). They didn't even have time to react to the situation. But someone should've taken a picture of Mai. Poor thing dropped the tray, backed away from the door with hands in the air.

Osamu Yasuhara had yet to decide whether that reaction was due to the fact that Masako had paint on her nose (which he didn't point out intentionally) or that it was them who did everything what already had been done (in Madoka's mind at least).

Man, we should be glad that it's Mai not Ayako or Monk there. Someone should tell the brunette that Naru going to be angry, two sets of tea broken in two days, way to go Mai, you've set a record.

Masako looked at Yasu who had already started to towards the startled brunette.


Explaining to Mai was a piece of cake, unexpected or not. She took it all really easily as if she expected it already. Only a fool would believe that Naru might indulge himself in activities other than his work.

"So Mai, think you can keep this little secret of ours?" Yasu questioned with a wink.

"Y...yeah, um... I think so." Yasu smirked at the brunette thinking of ways

to include Mai in those pranks.

"Hey Yasu, what if Naru finds out that you two are behind this? Won't he be angry?"

"Aww... Worried about me, Mai-chan?" He replied with his usual charm.

"Ugh...Yasu can you-" Mai was interrupted by ever-the-odious medium.

"Oliver is smart Mai, unlike some people, he'll definitely find out it's us. Certainly, you don't think he's an idiot do you?" Masako sneered at her, hiding her mouth with the sleeve of her kimono with eyes turned to slits. Mai scoffed at this, the atmosphere tensed. Both ladies were glaring each other like dangerous...cats... when no other word seemed appropriate enough to Yasu.

He cracked up internally at their quibble. A fine scheme circling the boy's head.


"Madoka Mori! What have you done to my son?" Luella exclaimed at the phone, clearly horrified by the photographs sent by her long time friend. She heard giggling on the phone.

"He looks fabulous, doesn't he?" Madoka asked with a high pitch squeal.

"Madoka, I'm warning you! I know my son well enough to know that he would never paint the walls of his office in any color other than white. Dyeing his own hair is way out of the question!"Both friends were squealing and shouting completely oblivious to the glares their husbands were giving them.

"Hehe...Okay! Remember when I told you about that boy Yasu who's an excellent researcher?"

"Yeah..."

"Well he and Masako are playing pranks of sorts on him..."

"Oh! Really!? How? What are they gonna do next?"Luella gleamed at the evil thoughts swarming her mind.

"Well from what I remember they're gonna give me a new look!"Madoka squealed.

"Huh! And how would they accomplish that? No one can make Noll do that!"

"They would figure a way out. Believe me, that Yasu kid can do almost everything!"

"Almost..."

"Wanna bet? Five grand if they do it."Madoka exclaimed, not that they wanted the money, it was just an incentive. They always used to bet on things related to the twins, mostly Luella won but things were gonna change now.

Vacation here I come!

"Deal."


Oliver did not observe the brightly colored walls of his office.

Nor did he contemplate on the various posters on the walls.

No…

What he was scrutinizing was his obsidian notebook. One day, he left left his notebook one day and it was dripping with paint. All of it, all of the pages,all of the cases. Wasted. All of it. And he had to send the reports to BSPR tomorrow…

Osamu Yasuhara had to remunerate for this loss and he had until tomorrow morning.

Naru left for Yasu's temporary office devising plans to take his vengeance.

They had their go on him, now it was his turn.


A/N: I know this is a little lame but I thought it would be fun if I added Naru into the prank war. Please tell me what you think? Would it be any good? Please Review.

Have a cookie XD
