Chapter 1: Goodbye Mr. Ant!
After the strange display of the chicken somehow turning into a cow, Izuru Kamukura found himself walking towards a girl sitting down in the dirt. She seemed to be pressing her thumb into the ground with all her strength. Izuru -being the curious man that he is- approached her.
"Hello..." He spoke carefully so he wouldn't frighten the girl. He found it strange that such a little girl would be allowed into high school. One would think that she must be either really smart, or just look like a kid; however, Izuru could tell at a glance that the girl was indeed their age. He could now tell what she was doing. She was killing ants... In a game like pattern. "I don't believe I've introduced myself yet. I am Izuru Kamukura."
The girl stopped from her ant killing game, and looked up at him. "I'm Hiyoko Saionji." The girl then went back to poking the ground. "Squish!"
The boy jealous of the entertainment the girl was experiencing, decided to act. "Are you playing some kind of game?"
The girl, not looking up from the ants responded. "A game? Not really. If you squish their tummies just right, they make this awesome sound." She stopped and looked up at him. "You wanna try too?"
The boy shrugged. While he should be walking around and meeting all the other people here, he couldn't pass up on the opportunity to have fun. "Sure, why not?" Finding a nice patch of grass to sit in, he sat down in a crisscross style. "Where do I have to squish them to get the sound?"
The girl smiled. "Right... Here!" She lunged her finger at where the ants abdomen are. The sound of air leaving the ant could be heard, as the girl when into a fit of giggles.
"Alright then..." The boy pressed one of his fingers into the ants. Just as expected, the sound came out clearer then when Saionji did it; however, he didn't stop there. When he pressed his finger down, he would kill a ant, and the others would scatter away from his hand. He would then, extend another finger, and kill the ant before he got away, also releasing the sound from the ant. After five minutes or-so, all the ants were dead.
"Wow! You're really good at killing ants!" The girl yelled in excitement.
The boy just stared down at the ground. All the ants were killed, and now he had nothing to do. "How boring."
"What?" The girl looked at him in confusion.
"That was way too easy, no challenge... It was boring." The boy stood up, brushing off the backside of his pants.
The girl looked at him in confusion until she finally broke into a smile, as if she realized something. "Oh I get it! You wanna get out of the sun, cause it's too hot for you!"
Izuru raised one eyebrow, giving her a look of, 'where did you get that one?'
"It's just, you have really long hair, not to mention you're wearing a black suit! It must be really hot for you right now!"
The boy then realized what she was talking about. It was a comment so far out of left field, even he had no idea what it had to do with the conversation. "I'm not really hot, I have a pretty good endurance for things like that."
"Then why do you want to leave?" The girl asked, pouting a little.
The boy sighed, running his hand through his thick black hair. "All the ants are dead, what else can I do?"
The girl smiled, finally standing up she ran to another ant pile. "We can just go to another pile."
The boy sighed once more. He had no reason to stay there. In fact, he would probably have more fun if he just left and found something else... "Ok, just one more pile then."
But a extra five minutes never killed anybody.
...
Ok so that's it for this chapter. I'll make 2 other (meeting) chapters before we get into the other fun, and not so fun stuff!
You might of noticed that Saionji (Besides the ant killing thing) Wasn't bad in this chapter. That's because that she's already taken a likening to our main protagonist!
You also might noticed that Izuru himself is a little more... Soical? There's a reason for that as well!
The reason why I call theses drabbles is because most chapters aren't directly tied to each other. There'll be mini timeskips here and there, and sometimes we'll go back in time at random.
If you liked the chapter, please tell me who Izuru should meet next. If you have any ideas I should write about then just PM me!
