###  A quicky li'l story  ####

				  ####  Waiting for love  ####

*************************************************************************************************

A dark figure sat on the park bench, surrounded by a rainbow of autumn colors.
He wished that the writer could spell, but the was untlented and lazy, so he may or may not run this through Spell Checker.
The figure answers to the name...Kage.

Well...
Actually he never answers...
Not in real life anyway...
He just acts menacing!
But for the purpose of this story he'll talk.
Well...actually he mostly just thinks...
But thats not my problem!

In his left hand he clutched a single piece of paper.
It took much skill to hide all of this from TNT and the catgirls.
But he had!
There would be no uninvited guests this time...
If there had been a first time.

Kage thought about why he was here.

It was about 3am.
A gust of wind woke the ninja.
Or was it just a gust of wind?
Probably not.
Kage turned to see that TNT was still asleep, muttering disgusting thoughts.
There was a piece of paper lying by his own face.
Kage sat up suddenly, but all that was left was the paper and an open window.

 Kage thought.
He read the piece of paper again.

"I never wanted to say anything
I was far too shy,
But if I don't proclaim my love for you I'll lose you forever.
Please...
Please!
Please meet me tomorrow night in the park
At the 5th bench"





Kage went over the possible canditates.

Rei?
She never seemed too emotional...
And it would take a lot of skill to sneak into his room a night without waking him.
Kage wasn't aware of any martial arts training.

Misty?
Can be emotional...
But could in NO way sneak into his room...
It couldn't be her!

Sakura?
Nah...
She's too in love with Ryu.
And she'd have probably broken something trying to sneak in...

Taki?
She could easily have sneaked into his room!
Actually...
She had a couple of times before.
But that had little to do with love.
*sigh*
A beautiful, mature woman trying to rape him...
Not the most awful thing in the world...
But he had always resisted.
For his and her honor!
Though maybe next time he could...maybe lose...
Kage shook his head.


Kiku?
Could the fact that he asked Kiku to date TNT told Kiku he had no intrest in her.
And thats why she's acted tonight...
It seemed a bit too subtle for Kiku.
Kiku thought romance was an expensive ice-cream.

Yuki?
She'd probably would have rather teleported the note in the window...
But some one had actually crept into the room...
There was definate evidence of that!

Jan?
He didn't even know this Himitsuko...
{GRRR Thats my name!! ^�^ : Lysandria}
She was indeed very strong!
But was she skilled...?
Could it have been love at first sight for her?

Jesse?
That girl acted in rather a bizarre manner.
But she was beautiful!
Kage nearlly got a nose bleed thinking about her heavenly form.




Kasumi?
Kage had always thought of her as a friend.
But when they met in the restaurant...
She had mentioned them supposedly ending up together.
She could be emotional...
And her skill was as nearly good good as his own...
If anyone could sneak into HIS room, it was Kasumi.
Could it be...
Just think of all those times he pined over other girls in front of her
It must have been toture!
Thats it!
It must be Kasumi!

What would he say?
He never thought that way towards Kasumi...
But they we're great friends...
And really close...
YES!
He would accept her love!
After all...
Actually...
He did once have feelings for her...

Kage looked down at Kim who was sitting on the bench beside him.
"Ah...You know your the only woman for me!" he told his favourite weapon.
A elgantly crafted katana blade.
It had been with him always.
It had belonged to many a warrior before him!
He always thought it was alive...
Like it had a soul...
A silly notion he admitted.

A figure emerged from the dark and walked towards him.
It was female, wearing a long, graceful chinese dress.
She was holdind a single white lily.
She seemed to be looking for someone.


"I'm over here!" he called out.
The figure stopped.
"Kage!" he explianed. "I got your note!".
The figure dropped the lily and ran towards him, arms open.



<...like...>
<...no...>



The figure spoke. "AIYAAAA!!! Kage meet Conditioner! Kage truly love Conditioner! Conditioner love silly ninja! Nihao love!!!!"
"W-wait! N-n-now I didn't know t-that you l-l-left the...the n-note!"

Conditioner *GLOMP*-ed onto Kage, breaking a few of his ribs. "You really love Conditioner! We get married Yes!"
"NO!" Kage gasped, struggling for air.
"Then why you lead Conditioner on? It bad for man to toy with amazon heart!"
"I didn't lead you on! I've never had any intrest in you!"
Conditioner threw Kage back onto the bench. "YOU TOY WITH CONDITIONERS HEART!!! KAGE WILL CURSED!!!!!!" She took out a clay bottle from her bra, "Here be potion of true feelings! Kage reveal true feelings of soul when cursed!" She threw the bottle at the bench.
Kage flipped over the back of the bench as the bottle exploded against the bench, ruining Kim's polish but leaving Kage dry.
Conditioner look at the bench. "*SNIFFLE* *SNIFF-SNIFF* WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"
"Kage be cruel to Conditioner! But Conditioner still true love for Kage! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
Conditioner ran off crying into the night.

Kage felt pretty bad about doing that.
He never wanted to hurt her.
Maybe he should help her marry TNT!
Thats what he'll do!
Get rid of 2 annoyances with 1 stone. The diamond on a wedding ring!

Kage flopped down onto the bench, after wiping it down. "Well I guess my heart still belongs to you alone Kim" he laughed.
A sultry arm surrounded his neck. "And mine to you!" came the most seductive voice.
"YAAAHHHH!!!!" Kage leapt up and spun around to see the most incredable looking woman on her hands and knees leaning across to where he was sitting. She was wearing a stunning metallic dress.
"W-who are you?" he asked.
"Huh?" the girl replied. She looked down at herself and jumped off the bench. She jumped at the fact she jumped off the bench. 
"Are you ok my dear maiden?" Kage asked. 
THe girl looked up to the heavens. "Thank you, oh wonderful amazon goddesses. Now I may reveal my love for you Kage!"
"Erm...Thats a rather popular thing to do these days...What is your name?"
"I am Kim!" the girl replied, slinking over to Kage.
"Thats funny, my katana names Kim also!"
"Not also..." she purred, hers arms wrapped around Kage's neck, hanging off him.
"What do you mean...wait...y-you...You don't mean...You are..."
"Uh huh!" she agreed, nuzzling into him.
"Oh dear...Whats TNT gonna say when I tell him that someone accidently brought Kim to life...?"
"Don't worry about him!" she purred. "Could you "polish" me again?"
"WHAAAAAAAA!!!!!"
