Yuki's Scary Birthday

18th March
"Finally!" Zayn exclaimed as he fell on the sofa. "Home!"
K' groaned beside him. "I know right... birthday after birthday after birthday after birthday! How many were there? Three?"
"Four if you count Athena," Maxima chimed in, sitting down on his armchair.
"It was tiring!" Krizalid sighed. "Party after party. I think I might even gain weight!"
"Go train," Zayn smirked. "I think we all should. We need the exercise."
"Bleh," K' groaned. "No need."
"He hates exercise," Kula snorted. "Anyway, can we go for some ice cream?"
Everyone groaned.
"Not now, Princess," K' frowned. "We barely just came home from China."
"We're tired!" Zayn groaned next.
"But the journey was only five minutes," Kula pointed out.
"Yeah, but not the trip!" Krizalid pointed out. "One week! Filled with birthdays too!"
Kula sighed and made her way to the kitchen. To their surprise, she came back with a tub of ice cream and started eating it alone.
"I wanna go take a nap," Krizalid yawned, getting up to go to his room.
"And I wanna go take a bath," Zayn got up next.
"The last you washed was last night, wasn't it?" K' smirked. "Stinky..."
"I'm still clean, okay?" Zayn smirked, making his way to the door.
But before Krizalid and Zayn could leave the room, K's phone started ringing. He took it out and frowned at it.
"It's a group call from the BOF chat," K' groaned again. "What do they want now?"
"Might be important, just pick it up," Maxima shrugged, sliding down slightly in his armchair.
K' sighed and answered it.
"Has everyone picked up yet?!" Kyo's voice instantly came. "Guys? Guys! Please pick up!"
"Well, if it's something to do with you, I might as well hang up," K' rolled his eyes.
"Dash! Don't! Please don't!" Kyo begged. "I need you guys' help."
K' sighed. "What is it now?"
"Wait, I want the rest to come in first."
"What is it now?" Iori's deep voice suddenly came.
"I have no idea, Kyo suddenly made a group call," K' explained. "Doesn't wanna tell what it's about until everyone's in."
"Well, I'm already in too," Aiko's voice came from Iori's end. "I didn't pick up because... why the same call in two phones?"
"Great, now it's three more," Kyo sighed. "Where's Terry, Nako, and Athena?"
"Hello!" A high-pitched voice came from Nakoruru's end.
"Rimu, where's your sister?" Kyo groaned. "Is she around? You always seem to be playing with her phone."
"She's making lunch," Rimururu said.
"Can you at least go to the kitchen so that she can listen in?" Kyo asked. "Rimu, this is important."
"Fine," Rimururu said, and there was a rustling noise in the background. "Nako-neesan! There's a call for you!"
"Who?" Nakoruru's voice came.
"BOF," Rimururu explained.
There was a sigh. "Sorry, guys. Rimu was playing with my phone while I cooked."
"It's fine, as long as you're listening to the call," Kyo said. "Where's Terry and Athena?"
"Sure, loaded baked potatoes sound good," Terry's voice suddenly came. "Make 'em extra cheesy."
Iori started laughing. "Cheesy baked potatoes?"
"Sorry, I was talking to Rock about dinner," Terry apologised with a chuckle. "Anyway, what's this about?"
"I don't know, Kyo doesn't wanna tell," Iori said. "Kyo. What's up?"
"Wait for Athena," Kyo said.
"How long more, I wanna get this over with," K' spat. "Just tell us!"
Athena finally came on call, but she was silent.
"Athena, are you there?" Kyo asked.
No answer.
"Athena, I think you're on mute," Kyo explained.
The call was unmuted and there was a buzzing sound as Athena spoke. "Sorry, I'm in a car. I'm still listening though."
She turned her mic off again.
"Okay, then," Kyo said as if smiling. "We all on?"
"Just tell us, can you?" K' impatiently said again.
"It's Yuki's birthday," Kyo said, earning groans from the whole K' team, and some of the others. "In two days! Also, groaned?"
"I am," K' frowned. "And everyone's tired because we just came back after so many birthdays. And now you're telling me there's another."
"When is it?" Iori sighed.
"I think it's on the twentieth because I remember her saying something about it," Aiko chimed in.
"Oh yeah, I forgot you and Honoka hang out with her sometimes," Kyo chuckled. "Anyway, can you tell Honoka about this too? They're pretty close, right?"
"Yeah," Aiko said. "I'll tell her. What are you planning?"
"It better not concern us because I wanna spend the weekend sleeping in," Terry chimed in. "And I also don't wanna eat outside food anymore. One week of it is enough."
"Geez, if you're so concerned about the food, my mom would only be too happy to serve you with home-cooked food," Kyo said. Then silence before Kyo spoke again. "Don't tell her I said this okay? She'll stab me to death with that naginata of hers. Just stay here for the weekend okay, Terry? I have an extra room for you and Rock."
"What about Andy?" Terry asked. "And Mary and Mai?"
There was a pause. "Okay, stay at a hotel. I'll deliver the food to you, okay?"
K' snorted. "Terry, school him some more like that."
"Kyo, don't bite off more than you can chew," Iori chimed. "Also, what's your plan? You don't wanna tell us."
Kyo let out a laugh. "Okay, here's the thing. She has had enough of being kidnapped by one loser after another. You guys are kidnapping me."
"Sign me up!" K' gasped. "I can prepare anaesthetic too."
"What sorta anaesthetic?" Iori smirked. "Bonk on the head?"
"Of course," K' smirked. "Also, where does this take place? Monja Street?"
"That's a good idea," Kyo said thoughtfully. "Alright, here's the thing. Is Maxima with you?"
"Yeah, I'm here," Maxima sighed, sitting up. "Why?"
"Great, I need you and Goro to come take me away while Yuki and I are in Monja," Kyo explained. "Anyone else you know is gigantic?"
"Well, there's Heavy D! and Lucky Glauber," Terry pointed out. "Want me to call them?"
"Eww, no thanks..." Kyo quickly said. "They're too noisy."
"I'm telling them this," Terry laughed.
"No, please don't!" Kyo quickly said. "Also... is Khushnood tall? He seems huge. I need one more big guy..."
"Nah, Khushnood is only slightly taller than me," Terry said. "You can take Chang, though. Heaviest contestant in all of KOF! And he's less than five miles away."
Kyo thought about the Korean delinquent and frowned. "No thanks... I think Krizalid would do."
"What?!" Krizalid exclaimed. "I didn't even say anything! Why pull me in?!"
Zayn gave him an understanding nod. "What about Yashiro? I heard he's like one-ninety or something?"
"Oh... yeah, that's an idea," Kyo said. "But I don't want my Yuki anywhere near a Hakkesshu."
"Aren't two big guys enough? Why do you want me?" Krizalid piped up again. "Please, don't make me a villain again! I had enough, dying twice already!"
"Poor guy..." K' couldn't help but say.
"Ireland was the best," Iori laughed. "Oh my gosh, we really thought you were a stalker..."
Krizalid sighed.
"Okay, kidnap you and do what?" K' asked again.
"You guys kidnap me, then take me to... uh... to... somewhere... and hold me, hostage," Kyo said.
"That's not helping," Iori sighed. "Tell you what, we'll beat you up and throw you into Yuki's garden. How about that?"
"Hey, that's a good idea," K' agreed, grinning.
"I think I have a better idea," Terry chimed in. "I recently came across the abandoned NESTS base here, in Southtown. It still looks pretty legit, just needs some cleaning."
"Yeah! Bring me there!" Kyo exclaimed. "That means we all come there. How about that?"
"I think that's a better idea," Terry said. "I'm lazy to come there."
"And I'm lazy to come there," K' frowned. "No thanks..."
"Yeah, like I still stand by the idea of beating Kyo up and throwing him to Yuki's garden," Iori said, sounding as if he was smirking. "That sounds easier."
"And fun," K' added with a smirk.
"Ohh come on, guys!" Kyo whined. "Please? I need your help. Dash!"
K' just sighed and turned to the others. Maxima shrugged, Krizalid and Zayn shook their heads while Kula was just there, eating ice cream.
"I'm not sure," K' said finally. "Iori? You going?"
"I'm not sure too..." Iori admitted with a sigh.
"I think I'm going," Aiko said. "Yuki's my friend."
"Well, if Aiko's going, then I am too," Iori decided. "You guys?"
"Well, I'm already here," Terry said.
"Nako?" Kyo said next.
"Sure, I guess," Nakoruru said. "Rimu will come too."
"Great, just one more person," Kyo said. "Athena?"
Athena turned her mic on. "Yes. Pick us up from Hiroshima, only Kensou and me. The rest are staying behind."
"Well, looks like we're coming too," K' sighed.
"Great!" Kyo exclaimed. "Maxima is okay with this, right?"
"Sure, I am," Maxima shrugged. "Also, are you sure it's a good idea to use the abandoned NESTS facility? Sounds dangerous, Terry."
"Yeah, I just said that to get you guys to come here," Terry chuckled. "Also, I think one of the parks here would be a good idea. There are lots."
"Okay, then," Maxima nodded. "We're coming."
"When are we leaving?" Iori sighed.
"Is tomorrow okay?" Kyo asked.
"Sure," Zayn sighed. "But what you gonna tell Yuki?"
"I'll tell her something and bring her over," Kyo said. "By the way... thanks, guys. You're the best bandmates."
"Aww, you're welcome, Kyo," Nakoruru said. "You guys are like our family in this era."
"Well, we don't mind, I guess," Iori said next. "It's good to see that you're finally taking your girlfriend seriously."
"You sound like Ben," Kyo chuckled. "Anyway, thanks, Yagami."
Kyo waited for Iori to leave the call before speaking.
"Guys, don't leave yet," Kyo said. "There's another birthday four days after Yuki's and one more in five."
"Who's birthday?" K' asked and immediately gasped. "Oh... Honoka's and Iori's, right?"
"Precisely," Kyo chuckled. "I think we can celebrate theirs in one go in South Town too. What do you say, Terry?"
"I think it's a good idea," Terry said. "But right now, Yuki's is more important."
"You're right," Kyo said. "Also, bye. My mom's calling for something..."
K' hung up and turned to the others.
"Well... looks like we have to fly to America now..." Zayn sighed. "I haven't even unpacked yet."
"Don't, we would need to repack then," K' said. "But my clothes need to be washed. So much laundry..."
"I don't think we'll have enough time to wash and dry all of it here, or enough space too," Maxima sighed. "How about we drop by a laundrette in Southtown and wash it all there?"
"I think that's a better idea," Krizalid agreed. "I'm lazy to do stuff now."
"Since when are you not lazy?" K' rolled his neck as he spoke.
"What about you, then?" Krizalid smirked. "Your profile says that you hate exercise. How about that?"
"He's got a point, Aibou," Maxima smirked, checking K's profile. "It literally says that."
K' grimaced and went to his room to get some clothes before heading off to the bathroom to shower.
"So it's Florida tomorrow, then?" Zayn said.
"Do they have ice cream there?" Kula asked, still eating her ice cream.
"Princess, it's South Town," Maxima sighed. "Of course, there's ice cream."
"Yay!"
Krizalid groaned. "Three more birthdays. Darn, why is March so full?!"
