In the training hall!

[choshumember15]

A short man with ruffed uo red hair is in a room labled 'TRAINING HALL'. He is leaning his back against a wall looking at his feet while holding a bamboo sword.

Shinpachi: *sighs* Today seems so dull...

He shut his eyes and naturally slwoly slid onto the floor with his knees near his chest. Soon, he ws asleep, his bangs covering his eyes while he sliently snores.

[Gentatsu]

Okita: Hey Shinpachi! I have been look for someone to train with! Come over to the Shinsengumi dojo for that! I'll see ya there!!!

[choshumember15]

Shinpachi starts to mumble slightly.

Shinpachi: Yea...sure...I'll be--

at that moment, he eyes went wide as he stood scared half-to-death.

Shinpachi: Holy crap! Don't scare me like that!

He took a breath to reassure himself then scartched the back of his neck lazily, still holding the Bamboo sword.

Shinpachi: Sure, why not. There's nothing better to do around here...

*Goes to the Shinsengumi Dojo*

[choshumember15]

Tetsu, who is now in Shinpachi's place, is standing, looking very nervous and unsteady.

Sano: C'mon puppy, just try some. *hiccup* Heh, don't worry, it won't bite...

The big man was infront of Tetsu, holding a bottle of sake with his cheeks all rosy red. Behind him was a weasilish man smirking. He was the one in the first place to give the achohal to sano.

Tetsu: B-but Tatsu said...!

Todo just shook his head smiling and walked next to sano, him now also infront of the puppy.

Todo: Are you always going to listen to yr brother? Don't you remember? You said that if you lost a match against me, you would try some.

Tetsu frowned, now pouting out of fear.

Tetsu: But I never thought I wud lose!

Todo smirked and grabbed the bottle from sano, now playfully shaking it in the boy's face.

Todo: Looks like you have no choice, you'd better live up to yr word or I'll have to do something drastic...

Those last few words, todo made sound sort of teasing, and also sounded like todo was trying to resist a laugh. Sano just snickered, watching the puppy try and make up his mind.

[Otemba]

(RPin' Saizo...oink...)

*=thoughts

*Lookin' around mindin' my own biznez...I hear my dear beloved owner...he so freakin' charmin' & so nice to me...an' I hear Shinpachi mumble sumthin'....*

Oink...oink....

*it seems that they're goin' to the dojo...I should follow...*

;D

[Mibbie.]

Tetsu head was spinning, not really sure what to do. Should he try some? Or shud he listen to his brother? Try some, get killed by tatsu. Try some, or get killed by tatsu...try some...get---!!!

Tetsu just shut his eyes tight.

Tetsu: Ah, what the hell!!

Much to Todo's surprise, the boy had grabbed the bottle from the man's grasp and took one...long..sip. The two men took one step back blinking, knowing that NO ONE shud ever drink it that fast.

Todo: Tetsu...?

Asked Todo as he blinked again , waving his hand infront of the puppy's face. When Tetsu was done, he dropped the bottle which was now empty and took a big breathm getting his oxygen back. The two men waited for tetsu's response.

But to the boy's surprise, his vison became blurry, and his throat stung alittle. His face too got all rosy. He had dark circles around his eyes as his pupils grew smaller. His head felt heavy, and he wobbled slightly not really being able to stand.

This was Tetsu's first encounter with achohal...

[Umeko]

Tatsu: Tetsu? (pops his head in) Hijikata-san wants us to get something from outside... OMG! TETSU!

looks at a obviously drunk Tetsu and and the two captains

Tatsu: OMG! OMG! (shakes Tetsu) He's... he's... DRUNK!

[Mibbie.]

Todo and Sano just starred helplesly and scarcly, obviously knowing that they were going to get punished...BIG TIME. Todo just scratched the back of his head smiling try fakly.

Todo: uhhh....yeeaa. About that. Ya'see,...

Todo looked around and immediatly pointed to Sano childishly.

Todo: Hey man, it was all Sano's fault. I had nothing to do with it!

Sano gaped at Todo as he was 'this' close to breaking the skinny man's fist that was barely inches away from him. His eyes brow twitched, and his cheeks were still rosy.

Sano: Oh, and you had nothing to with it,eh???

Meanwhile, Tetsu was gone in his little own world, soon he started seeing things, but then he just grinned idioticly as he slightly noticed Tatsu.

Tetsu: Hey Tatsu...*hiccup* ....Heh,heh...Where you been...? Those guys gave me...*hiccup* this really good stuff...you shouk try some!

The blush on his cheeks grew darker during the end of his sent, and his smile grew bigger. The sake poisned his mind with...'very strange happy go-lucky thoughts...'.

The two men gulped hard, realizing that the puppy had just completely sold them out.

[Umeko]

Tatsu is speechless... ;;

[Mibbie.]

The two men slowly, and still eyeing Tatsu, sneek out of the hall, trying to be unseen. Meanwhile, Tetsu opens his eyes all the way and stops smiling, starring at Tatsu. Then the blush on his cheeks gets even darker as he raises his arms, smiling again.

Tetsu: Tatsu! When did you get here??(<--already forgot Tatsu was there, he's very drunk...e,e;)

He threw his arms around his brothers neck, and spoke again, accpet kinda babyish.

Tetsu: I wove you soooo much big brover!

Then, the boy looked up smiling a idiotic grin again. Still having his arms around Tatsu.

Tetsu: Will you play patty cake with me??

[Umeko]

Tatsu: ARGH! You two! (At Harada & Todo) Tetsu's underaged! OMG! How could you let him drink? Oh no, he's gonna have a hangover and a headache... wait, I think I'm going to have a headache... (groans) How's he (shakes Tetsu) going to help me pick up Hijikata's parcel in THIS state?! (Screams out loud as Tetsu barfed over his clothes)

[Mibbie.]

Tetsu: ughhhhhhh....Tatsu...I don't feel so good...

Graoned Tetsu as he wiped his mouth with one hand, and held his stomach in the other,his smile completely gone. His blush just stayed the same.

Todo and Sano stopped dead in their tracks as they gulped hard, both rubbing the back of their necks, walked over to him and the drunken Tetsu. Smiling awkwardly as well.

Todo: Well uh, he doesn't look THAT bad...right?

by the last word, Todo hopefully looked over at Sano, who quickly nodded a yes.

Sano: Uh,yea. I'm sure he'll be fine in the next very minutes...Heh, right Tetsu???

Tetsu hunches his head over, covering his mouth with noth hands, stopping himself from throwing up again. The two captains gulped hard again, looking alittle disgusted.

Todo+Sano: 'He is REALLY not going to get better soon, at least not for another few weeks...' *Sweatdrop*

[Umeko]

From his room, Hijikata roars: TETSU! TETSUNOSUKE! WHere's that page!?

Tatsu: Oh no... I still have the accounts from last month to balance... (tries to clean his yutaka) Yamanami-san wants to see the books by tonight...

[Mibbie.]

Tetsu sat back upand pulled his hands away from his mouth, he never did barf, or yet. He still look very nausiated and in pain. He stood weakly, having to hold onto the wall for support, his head still spinning.

Tetsu: I'm coming...V-Commander...

He voice sounded grogally and soft, like a whisper, but slightly louder. Trying the best his could to just keep his eyes open.

The 2 captains just blinked in surprise of how tetsu could actually move in his kind of state.

Todo: Hey,puppy, u ok?

The man got no answer, Tetsu just wanted to follow hijikata's demands before he got in really big trouble. Also, he had no idea of how laid he was.

[Umeko]

Tatsu simply stared at his little brother's determination to carry out his duties.

(Hijikata? Okita? Anyone?)
