Chapter 9 : Tension

Osana's Pov:

The bell rang dismissing the students to class. I gently pushed Supana off of me. " We'll talk more during lunch okay?" I told her. She nodded and wiped her eye. "O-okay," she muttered. I walked away feeling upset for my freind.

For some reason, my ears perked at the sound of a very obnoxious voice. I over heard that Ronsharku chick, and I pushed Supana out of my mind. " Like how could anyone be so nasty? First she kicks Tama-kun, then attempts to fry Mr. Jazzy feet, and now Mei was saying she was with some guy 20 years older than her! God, who does this teacher's pet think she is?" She scoffed. " I heard she smokes, Mun. Maybe she's more like you then you think?" A different voice said. " Yes. All these phrases don't seem coherent at all," a different voice said. I recognize the other two voices. They belong to the Basu sisters, the two most well known students at school! If I can get them to hate blacktop, Taro will be mine for sure.

"All I am saying is you should watch yourselves around her. Someone who has a reputation like her shouldn't be trusted-LIKE O.M.G. Is that you Osana? " Ronsharku said running up to me dragging Sakyu Basu with her. Inkyu waved bye to her older sister. I couldn't help but notice her ring when she was waving.  " I Didn't know you had homeroom with us! " Ronsharku said. "I sit in the back," I said entering the classroom. "Well then let me introduce you to my other BBFL. This is Sakyu. Sakyu this is Osana," Ronsharku introduced us. Sakyu stuck her arm out. " Pleasure to meet you," she greeted. " Pleasure to meet you too. By the way, that ring your sister has on is very lovely ," I replied shaking her hand.

" Yes, our grandfather knew it was made for her,when he laid his eyes on it. He got me a pare of matching earnings, but they were to long to be worn at school. Such a shame," She replied. " What a shame indeed, " I muttered to myself constructing a plan to get on Sakyu's and the guidance counselor's good side.

"O.M.Geezeals! I just remembered I have a dentist appointment during lunch! Say Osana? Can you fill my spot in our clique?" Roansharku asked. "Oh dear, we wouldn't want to impose on you, with this being so short notice," Sakyu added slightly concerned. Hmm... Saying yes would get me closer to Sakyu ,therefore closer to Taro...But I did say I'd see Supana during lunch, and I don't like breaking my word... I guess Supana is a big girl. She wouldn't mind if I ditched her, after all, once I'm done, she may gain courage to confess to her crush like she promised.

" I don't see any harm done," I replied smiling. Roansharku clapped her hands. "Like, you are the best person on the planet! Thank you!"

No thank you...

Ayano's pov:

After guiding a very wet Yamada to the nurse, we went our separate ways to class. Other students shuffled to the side as I walked. Some were snickering. Others were making disapproving faces.

Did I accidentally put the wrong uniform on?

A member of the sceince club approached me before I stepped inside of the classroom. " Hey Aishi? Why aren't you wearing your eye piece? It's a requirement in the science club," she said.

Ah, that's why they were acting strange.

I stepped to the side, so other students could get through. " I am afraid I have no idea how to put the piece on," I replied. " You let the end rest on your ear and pin the top part to your hair," they informed me demonstrating the actions. I did as I was told. The purple eye piece set comfortably on my face. " Thank y-"
"Don't mention it," they muttered," ever." The club member ran off to join their class. I tapped the eye piece with my finger. At least I can take this off my bucket list. I sat in my set before the late bell rung.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I trust Yamada is capable of avoiding Najimi, so I'll go to the roof and retrieve those books I saw the other day.
The same students were on the roof just as before, the Basu siblings, Ruto, the girl sitting down, the girl walking around, and g- oh. She isn't there. Strange. Oh well, her presence doesn't affect me. I walked to one of the sides and picked up the book.
I flipped through the pages.

I'll take a closer look through these later. I shoved the book into my bag.

"Help! I've been kidnapped by a cabbage, " A loud monotone voice said. I looked behind me to see Gurin dragging Higaku to Ruto. " Consider it retribution, meanie," She replied. She glanced over at me. She motioned me toward Ruto. I dropped my bag, and I started to walk to her. " Oka-chan! Oka-chan! Yan-chan thinks she's seen a ghost! " Ruto tilted her head. " Who? " I sighed. " I didn't say I saw a ghost, I said : I don't like that spot," I corrected her. Ruto furrowed her brows at me. " This doesn't concern you Aishi," she said coldly.

Higaku and Gurin widened their eyes.
"Oka?" Higaku asked. " U-um. Actually, it is since Yan-chan is.. well Yan-chan, " Gurin said still surprised. Ruto looked down at her feet. " Whatever this spot was probably has no connection to the under world. I assure you," She said. She the muttered, " and I highly doubt any spirit would want to interact with anyone like you ." I shook my head.

" I didn't intend that. I was informed you linked a terrible emotion to a death at school. I wanted to know if that same emotion is near the fountain down there," I corrected Ruto. I tossed my hand slightly to the location of the fountain. Ruto turned her head in the same direction. " I-I don't know. No one else seems to be bothered by it so,maybe you just had some indigestion? " Ruto suggested. I let out a huff so light it could be mistaken for normal breathing.

"Thank you anyway-"
" Hold on," Higaku interrupted me, " Oka. Remember when Kokuma and Mei said that girls' restroom felt unsettling to be in?" Ruto nodded slightly. " And how it was only them who felt anything? And how after testing we-" He continued. Ruto raised her left hand. " You've proven your point, Shin," she sighed.Then she looked at me. A moment of silence past. Gurin looked like she was about to speak,but Ruto finally spoke. " We'll look into this Friday, " she said. Higaku gave a small nod in approval. " Thank you, Ruto," I replied.

" Never mention it," she muttered.

"Ooo! I just thought of a whole bunch if questions for him about the emoish gothish rival!" Gurin perked up. She began to walk to her usual spot, phone in hand. " However; I still want to know... why the fountain stuck out to you?" Ruto asked. "Under most circumstances, I can't feel emotion-"  "So does the rest of the occult club but that doesn't explain anything, " Gurin added turning back to us. " Let me rephrase this. I can't feel-"

" Look! Blacktop stole your ring!" A loud voice screeched. Blacktop? " Pardon? " I asked turning to see a very angry looking Najimi. She pointed at my face. " I saw this theif steal your ring while you two were looking at those pigeons! See. It's in the front pocket of her book bag! " She yelled. " My bag is-" I started. Then I looked down. My bag was now next to my foot. What?

"Clearly, you're mistaken. I left this over there," I said motioning to my original position on the roof. The purple basu sister dug through the front of my bag. She pulled a small ring out. " Clearly, you're mistaken," she said through her teeth. The pink sister grasped her sister's arm. "N-now lets be reasonable  here-" She started. "Why? Your grand dad payed a lot of money for that set of jewelry. Should you really defend a thief who tried to take it? " Osana asked the pink Basu sister. The sister looked down.

" Hang on," Gurin started," Yan-chan couldn't take the ring because she was here with us the time you were looking at those pigeons. " Higaku nodded and added," I saw her drop her bag over there as well. " The purple Basu sister clenched her fist. " This doesn't concern you, dorks. Go back to your classes. And you-"  She pointed in my direction," I was thinking Osana was lying, when she said you were scum. Now I see what she ment, you vile peice of trash," She said spitting venom with each word. She sharply turned and pointed at Najimi. "Go get the guidance counselor. I want this heathen out of my sight!" Najimi smirked. Before she could make any other kind of body movement, the pink Basu sister grabbed her by the risk. " N-now let's not jump to far a head of everything Osa! " the sister said. She looked longingly at Ruto. " O-oka, was this-er- 'yan-chan' with you three before we came over here?" She asked. Ruto looked away. " Unfortunately, " she lightly muttered. The purple Basu sister scowlled at Ruto. She yanked her sister a side. She whispered, " I can handle this. Back off." The pink sister looked upset and took a step back. " Aw, come on control freak. Let squidkid speak her mind," Higaku suddenly said.

The purple Basu sister and Ruto froze. Gurin was speechless, mouth agape. The pink Basu sister and Najimi gave startled looks at Higaku. I stood there wondering why that was even a big deal.  The purple sister turned around sharply. " What did you say to me dork?" She spat revealing slightly sharp teeth. " I.. I c-called you a control freak, " he said hesitantly. She stepped closer. "No. What did you say about my sister? " She corrected herself. She took another step closer. The two were only a few centimeters from eachother's face. He breathed in appearing to be gathering courage. " I called squidkid by her nickname, control freak. I mean- its not like any other name suits her face," he bluntly replied. The violet haired girl let out a growl and swung at him. A loud smack was heard as The purple Basu sister's fist hit Higaku in the face.

" Shin! " Ruto gasped as he fell to the floor like a peice of ribbon in the breeze. Gurin and the pink sister yelped at the sudden action. The purple sister pulled him up to his feet by his collar shirt. " Say that again about my sister you prick! Come on! I dare you! See what happens!" She demanded. He glanced at Ruto then me. He furrowed his eyebrows and said," Okay then.  You're sister's a squidkid!" The girl bared her slightly sharp teeth at him and knocked him to the ground. "H-hey! Leave him alone," Ruto insisted trying to pull Higaku away from the ravage girl. " Back off freak! " The purple sister hissed pushing her away from her target. Ruto stumbled and fell backwards on to Gurin, who was brought down by the other girl's sudden weight.

While she was distracted, Higaku stood up and kicked her in the back. She fell, but when she turned over, she tripped Higaku. He fell backwards with a thud. She quickly crawled over to him and grabbed his neck. "Whore!" She yelled.
" Takes-nrg- one to kn-know one-nrg-controlfreak! " He chocked out. She then repeatedly banged his head against the ground by his neck, while he struggled to pull her python like grip away.

I stepped back from the chaos. I looked over to see the other sister guiding Ruto and Gurin away from the fight. I saw a bit of orange race pass me.

Najimi isn't a teacher's pet, nor is she a coward. Why is she...

I froze.

Oh no. She's going to get the guidance counselor!  If she tells her what I did, I won't be able to see her confess to churu!
I can't get blamed for something I didn't do!

I gritted my teeth and bolted to the door.

Here's hope all my effort in physical education pay off!

I broke into a quick trot down the stairs. It hurt my feet with my speed, but I ignored it. I saw the girl of amber just 15 steps away. She stole a glance at me. She gasped; she quickly turned back. Determination was fueling me as my speed increased. I could hear her pant. She gritted her teeth. She let out a yelp as she tripped and tumbled down the stairs.  She rolled in my way once she hit the bottom. I took no hesitation and jumped over her. I raced down the next flight of stairs smiling now that my opponent was in the dust. Now a true challenge lay a head: other students.

Most shuffled aside at the sight of me; however, there were still some I had I duck and weave around. " Out of the way loser! " I heard Najimi in the distance along with several complaints. I glanced back. My eyes met her distant fiery golden ones. I grimaced.

Come on, just a little further.

I looked over to the side to see an upset Churu trudging up the stairs. I smirked as I looked back at the ginger. I swung a left so Najimi would pass me. I could feel her satisfaction as she stomped by... right into her Churu-blossom! " Look out! " Najimi said a little too late. For the next second, she tripped again and fell on top of Churu. I let out a laugh as the two groaned in displeasure. As much as I'd love to watch you to interact, I have a staff member to speak with!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The counselor was in confrontation with a new chemistry teacher; however, it did not stop me from beating Najimi to the room. They asked in unison my business and i stated flatly about the fight currently on the roof. I added Najimi , who then appeared at the door, was the one who told me about the fight. The chemistry teacher then demanded Najimi show the fight to her. Najimi reluctantly agreed. The two then left. Najimi was muttering something inaudible.

The final bell interrupted my thoughts about the events during lunch. I sighed remembering something.

I should go to the science club activity today before they kick me out.

I picked up my things and begun to walk to my club room, but then I stopped.

Hey. Didn't Higaku get knocked out from that little rumble? Yeah, actually I think he did. That was weird. He didn't have to stand up for me, but he did...

I pressed the power button on my phone.
I still have some time before the club activity really starts. I suppose I should say thank you. I may not be able to feel, but I'm not rude.

I tucked my phone away then changed my direction to the nurse's office.

I can't say much about the office. Much like how I can't say much about our nurse. She has a nice smile, but the pink haired woman doesn't seem to do anything else.  This doesn't stop her from getting the attention of about half of the male first years; however. Yet, I can definitely make a few comments about her bandages on Higaku.

He wasn't littered with them, but there was enough to say he looked like two delinquents went to town on him. His left eye was slightly purple, slightly swollen,  and was glossed over by medicine. He didn't have his male black uniform coat on him, and his white colared shirt was missing a sleve. He turned to look at me.

" Salutations, Aishi," He said.

" Hello there, uh, Shin?" I replied attempting to sound cheerful.
" Did Oka send you? Tell her I'll leave once mi-" I raised my hand to stop him.

" No. I just wanted to say you didn't have to do that," I informed him. He turned his head. I couldn't tell but he looked like he was smirking. " No. I think control freak needed to be reminded not to jump to conclusions, ... or on people, " he joked lightly. I pulled up a chair to sit next to the boy. " Are you sure? I don't think anyone else would take that for another person," I asked. " Oh, she wouldn't do that to you," he said with a slight chuckle. " Why not? " I asked. He turned back over.

" She did this to me because I'm immune to her succubus charms," he said smiling.
The door busted open. " HOLY FIRE FISTS OF FURY NINJAS, SHIN YOU OKAY?!" A loud voice said. Higaku's smile immediately disappears at the sight of Masuta. " Its nothing," he said bluntly. "Nothing? What the hell happened? " Masuta demand. Higaku sat up. " Your EX decked me in the face," he replied bluntly. And then some...

Masuta looked confused. " Which one? " He asked. Higaku picked out something from his hair. " The one who owns this color nail polish," he said slightly annoyed. Masuta examined the flake of polish. His face softened. " Oh," he said with realisation. He sratched his head. " Sorry, man," He said looking down. Higaku shook his head " Don't be. It wasn't your fault people are blaming Aishi  for things that were out of her control," He said glancing at the clock with his good eye.

"Aishi? Oh! Wait! You mean Yan-chan! " Masuta said with confusion then realisation. He looked at me. " Didn't even see you there, Yan-chan! We're still on for today after school right?" I sighed and nodded. He smiled a very dorky smile. Higaku stood up. " I'm going to the occult club," He bluntly stated.

"Shouldn't you wait for the nurse?" Masuta asked. "Why? She did what she needed to do, I don't need a note from her anyway since school's over, and personally, she creeps me out," Higaku replied. " Yeah but," Masuta started looking off into the distance, " She's so ho-" He looked over at me. Then to Higaku. " Helpful! " he finished blushing. Higaku made a noise of disgust then left. Masuta snickered childishly. "Ah well, I tried." He stood up. " See ya' Yan-chan! " He said waving goodbye. I returned a wave as he departed.

Now on to science club.
