Part Four: Kidnapping Ploy Revealed – Birthday Celebrations Commence!

The last thing Tezuka remembered as he rode in the car blindfolded was getting sleepy. When he woke up, he was getting half dragged, half carried out of the car and placed on his feet.

"Well would you look at that! This place looks the same as the last time I was here. I haven't been here in 10 years." Trickster whistled.

"That's probably because the last time you were here you did something bad, senpai. Besides I've never been here." Imp grumbled.

"Shut up, Imp! I thought I told you to respect your senpai!" Trickster yelled back. The two continued bickering all the way to… Somewhere just outside the Tokyo Tower.

There they waited for the other groups to bring Atobe and Saeki, although Trickster managed to slip away when Imp wasn't looking.

"What the-?! Dang it now what am I supposed to do? Huh? Hey look, it's Baldy!!" Imp shouted. The pedestrians nearby gave Imp weird looks and kept on walking. There was a sign in front of him that read, "Filming in process. If anything looks strange or the people beyond this point act or say weird things, please note that it is all for a movie. Thank you (for not calling the cops)!" The part in parenthesis was strategically typed in fine print so that the pedestrians would just keep on walking.

Baldy walked towards Imp and glared at him. Agent #31 walked beside him, pretty much carrying Atobe with Gin trailing some ways behind them. Several kilometers behind them, still in Yumiko's car were Saeki, Taicho, Shiryo, and Bubbles waiting for Fuji to contact them and give them the proceed orders.

A sharp buzzing noise signal that everything was good to go and that the group should commence with section 3 - part 1 of Operation: C6ASBOS.

Taicho and Shiryo pulled out a bag full of clothes and forced Bubbles to get Saeki changed, while they went and made sure Tezuka and Atobe got into their clothes.

Once they were done the group reassembled, but there were two people missing.

"Where'd Trickster and Gin go?" Agent #31 asked grumpily. The others shrugged at for the most part ignored the missing people. Agent #31 sighed and they walked into the tower.

"Hehehehe… It looks like we've got lots of people trying to enter to day. New workers, get!" A hushed voice cheerfully hissed.

"Please get a hold of yourself, Hiruma-san. We need you to be nice to the guests, not scare them half to death like you seem to enjoy doing with your teammates." A more serious and stoical voice sighed.

"Fine, fine. I'll be good, but only because Fuji said to be nice." Hiruma replied. He was a tall blond-haired person, with pointed ears, and sharp teeth that showed when he yelled or smiled. Hiruma was holding a large gun in the same way most of the other people present would hold a tennis racket.

On the other hand, the person standing next to him was a tall, black-haired person, with glasses and pale skin. He was holding a clipboard and would occasionally write something onto it.

"Eh? F- Tensai forgot to mention that he was bringing friends to the-" before Imp could finish Hiruma had whacked him with his gun, while Kyoya readied himself to do whatever was necessary to help out.

The three birthday people were walked into a main room of the tower and their blindfolds were removed.

"This is some kind of joke right?" Saeki asked.

"Ore-sama is surprised you'd do this." Atobe stared at the room.

Tezuka felt a smile coming, and tried to suppress it.

In front of them were the seven schools and a huge room covered in party accommodations. Hiruma and Kyoya stood off to one side looking cheerful and enjoying food from a nearby table.

Atobe immediately decided that he was going to try to start a conversation with Kyoya. Amazingly enough, the two started a conversation about, of all things, ramen.

Meanwhile, Yagyuu, Oshitari, Shishido, Kirihara, and Kurobane were being detained by Niou, Ryoma, and Yuuta.

"Um… Why am I here? And why are we detaining these people?" Yuuta asked nervously. He was eyeing the fancy, fake guns that the retainers were having fun pointing at and waving around the detainees. He had one too, but he had placed it in its holster on a near by table.

"Yes, do tell us why we're being detained." Oshitari said pleasantly.

"Hey, it's not like we want to detain anyone, but order are orders." Niou sighed.

"Yeah, Tensai was being really scary…" Ryoma muttered. He involuntarily shivered at the thought of Fuji being backed up but Hiruma forcing him to guard the detainees.

"Why are you still using codenames?" everyone else asked him.

"Because… Tensai said to keep using them until he says all clear." Ryoma replied.

"Oh, well I'll radio him and see if he's still there…" Niou sighed as he pulled out his walkie-talkie.

"This is Trickster to Tensai, Trickster to Tensai. Do you read me?" Niou barked into the walkie-talkie.

"Saa, there's no need to yell, Niou-kun." Fuji said cheerfully.

"Permission for the all clear signal, Tensai?" Niou continued.

"Heh… That's what I forgot! Permission granted. Bring to detainees to the Room." Fuji chuckled

"Yes, sir, and Fuji-kun, I think Echizen would like to speak to you." Niou replied.

"Fuji-senpai, how did you forget to give us the all clear?!" Ryoma growled.

"Does it matter? Hurry up, or else Hiruma will have another person to take care of." Fuji chuckled in reply.

Ryoma paled and dropped the radio. Yuuta picked it up, but by that time Fuji had left to bother the people at the party.

"Let's get going then." Niou sighed. He led the detainees to the Room, which was actually just the room in which the party was being held. As the group entered, the occupants of the room quieted.

Fuji walked to the front of the mass of tennis players with a mike and said, "Hey, how's everyone doing?"

The reply was a bunch of 'great!'s, a few 'okay's, and the detainees and retainers saying a blunt 'horrible.'

Fuji smiled. The second part of Operation: C6ASBOS was going perfectly.

"Good, it looks like almost everyone's having a good time. Unfortunately it seems some people's birthdays have actually been forgotten!" Fuji said cheerfully. Hiruma exclaimed his usual 'YA-HA!' while the rest of the group, save the stoical people, gasped.

"I'd like everyone to wish the following people a relatively happy early/late birthday: Kirihara, Shishido, Kurobane, Saeki, Atobe, Tezuka, Oshitari, and Yagyuu; in that order!" Fuji stated cheerfully. Hiruma grinned and got everyone, yes everyone, to start singing:

"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear, Kirihara, Shishido, Kurobane, Saeki, Atobe, (they inhaled here) Tezuka, Oshitari, and Yagyuu. Happy birthday to you! Yay!"

Then everyone shoved the three main birthday people to their respective birthday present piles.

Tezuka sighed and began to open his first, since it was his birthday today. He received more grip tape from Ryoma, a new Japanese to English dictionary from Fuji because Fuji had 'accidentally' burnt his other one, a green tennis racket from Momoshiro, and plenty of other interesting things, but the gifts the made him smile on the inside were the DS from both Inui, Oishi, and Kikumaru and the Nintendogs game from Kaidoh.

Atobe arrogantly opened his presents next. He received a DS from Shishido, Choutaro, and Jiroh, an interesting book about the brain from Mukahi, a book about life from Hiyoshi, a new camera from Kabaji, and a bunch of balloons from Oshitari.

"Why did Oshitari give ore-sama balloons?" Atobe asked incredulously.

"Well, seeing as I couldn't get you a cake, I decided to get you 15 balloons; one for each of your birthdays." Oshitari replied coolly.

Then Saeki opened his presents. He got a new tennis bag from Kisarazu Ryou, a joke book from Davide (then again he always gave people joke books), 6 boxes of strawberry flavored Pocky from Kentarou and Kurobane, a book about how things work from Itsuka, and a card from 'Shudo Satoshi'.

Saeki started at the card. "Um… Who is this again?" he asked.

Shundo sighed and muttered, "Not even Saeki-san remembers me…" He squatted in a random corner and started cultivating mushrooms.

"Oh! Now I remember..!" Saeki exclaimed. Shundo looked up in anticipation.

"Shundo-san is that one guy we ignore and rarely see in any of the manga chapters!"

A loud crashing noise caused most of the people in the room to jump. Shundo had face planted violently on the floor and Ryoma pointed out the Shundo had probably broken his nose. Fuji sighed and got Yagyuu's sister to drive him to a place where he could be treated.

Hiyoshi glanced at the corner and spotted the mushrooms. Offended, Hiyoshi got some matches and made the mushrooms disappear. Who knew he liked fire?

"Well, now that that's over with, let's not forget the other people's birthday presents. Special agents 1, 2, 5, 7, 13, and 13A please follow the procedures for Plan 19." Fuji said cheerfully.

Niou, Ryoma, Hiyoshi, Tachibana, and the Kisarazu twins groaned, but picked up the bags conveniently placed next to each of them and walked to the front of the room, which also happened to be where Fuji was standing.

Hiruma and Kyoya 'kindly' escorted the detainees to the front of the room as well. Well, Kyoya was doing it kindly. Hiruma was being intimidating with his guns and such.

Oshitari received wrist weights from Ryoma, and a billiards cue from Ryou. He raised his eyebrows and muttered, "Umm… Thanks for the interesting gifts."

Kirihara received a box of crayons from Niou and a realistic wooden sword from Hiyoshi. "Sweet! I got a sword!! Wait a sec, why'd Niou-senpai give me a box of crayons? I like colored pencils better." Kirihara whined.

Yagyuu got a golf club from Ryoma and a new golf bag from Atsushi. He bowed in thanks and walked back into the crowd of people. Ryoma looked assumed and walked back to his seat.

Shishido got a green hat from Tachibana and a box of cookies from Hiyoshi. "Argh! Leave it to me to be unlucky enough to get a present from the person who almost messed up my regular career. By the way, thanks for the cookies Hiyoshi." He walked away glaring at Tachibana and munching on his cookies.

Hiyoshi chuckled as Tachibana disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"Hey, was that supposed to happen?" Mukahi shouted. Fuji frowned, but motioned for the rest of the people to get their presents before a riot started between Fudomine and the rest of the schools.

Kurobane got Pocky from Ryou and two boxes of cookie from Atsushi. "Um… Why did I get all sweets?"

"We were to busy to think of anything else to get. Sorry." Ryou and Atsushi said simultaneously.

Kurobane shrugged, but before he could walk away, Kurogane magically appeared in front of the group. Everyone gasped and took three steps away from him, except Hiruma.

Kurogane pointed his sword at Kurobane and yelled, "Why do you have such a similar name to me?!"

"How the heck am I supposed to know? My parents named me!" Kurobane replied. He backed away from the sword out of fear.

"Hmph. Whatever… Happy birthday!" Kurogane shouted. Then he tore off his face! GASP! Hah! He actually took of his mask to reveal that he was Tachibana.

Everyone laughed, but wondered why all these random things were happening.

"Alright, now please welcome our special guest, Mokona!" Fuji cheered.

The black Mokona was on Fuji's shoulder, but since no one had seen it earlier everyone jumped when Mokona shouted, "Puu! Mokona is glad to be here. Watanuki couldn't come because he fell out a window yesterday."

"Nya, really? That's horrible!" Kikumaru frowned.

Everyone shrugged it off within minutes because the stage in the front of the room vanished in a flash of light and the party resumed. There was plenty of singing by various people including songs from the birthday group, the Meganes, several Atobe and Tezuka solos, and to close the party Fuji, Ryoma and Oishi sang 'Birthday.'

After the party, Fuji made sure everyone left before sighing and tapping Mokona on the head.

"When did you get here and why?" Fuji chuckled.

"Mokona came because it looked like fun. Besides, Yuuko won't mind too much. Mokona will be back before she notices. Bye, Fuji!" And with that, Mokona disappear into the night.

Fuji sighed. It looks like he'd have to give Yuuko-san something in return for Mokona's visit soon.

If I ever say OMG it stands for 'Outside Mokona's Gong,' but I don't say OMG so… Yeah…

Geez, I really need to look over my work before uploading… I made so many mistakes in chapter 3. I apologize to anyone who had trouble reading my story and/or for misleading people. I was sleepy. Well then, please review if you enjoyed this fanfic.
