Notes: - This is a fic in response to a challenge set by a certain young lady on It was partially to aid in my crippling writer's block, part because it looked like fun. It was kinda tough at first, but I got into my stride. Just read, review and hope for the best.

Finally, I am of English nationality. When I say football, I mean FOOTBALL. The proper stuff. With feet and balls. No hands. Not the rubbish the Americans pertain to call football. They use their hands people!... Sorry, I'm calm now.

Karin sulked in her chair. She tried not to look like she was sulking but it was apparent to all that she was. She hated lessons. The teachers all talked to her like she was some sort of idiot. She stared wistfully out of the window. All the upper-class had the day off and had decided to spend it right by the window Karin sat at.

There were four boys out there, kicking around a beaten up football. All in about their mid teens, maybe a little younger than own older her brother. Karin scowled, her brother was stupid…

"Kurosaki, do you think it would be possible for you to join the lesson now?" the shrill voice of her sensei broke Karin's thought pattern and the rest of her class sniggered. Karin felt like breaking things. A lot of things. Her teacher's head being one of them.

She turned away from the window and vainly glanced at the blackboard. It was some five or ten minutes later that Karin became acutely aware that she was being watched. She glanced out the window and noticed the four boys had stopped kicking their football and were looking at her through it. The one nearest to her, a tall boy with fair hair a green eyes, grinned and winked at her.

Karin went red and stared, a little harder than she meant to, at the blackboard. The older boy's smile unnerved her. She heard one of them mutter something then all the others laughed. 'Was is about her?' Karin didn't know, but the way they kept staring at her made her feel terribly uncomfortable. Now she had even more of a reason for lessons to be over so she could go to lunch and play football.

The bell went, mercifully only a few minutes later. Karin sprang up and was first out of the door. As she passed the window on the outside, she was relieved to see that the four upperclassmen had vanished.

Only slightly calmer, she went to her locker and got out her football, deciding to put the whole memory of that class out of her head. She vented some of her excess temper by slammed the locker door shut.

"Hey, calm down. What that locker ever do to you, eh?"

Karin spun round and was met with the same green eyes that had winked at her earlier. She swallowed and went red again.

"You're that kid who wasn't paying attention in class, right?"

She nodded stupidly and looked at her shoes. The boy held out his hand.

"I'm Takai by the way."

Karin was unsure whether she should shake it or not, but decided that it was dumb to make enemies on the grounds that him and his friends may, or may not, have said something about her.

Speaking of his friends, he was swiftly joined by them. They were all in the upper class, and Karin was introduced to them before she had time to think.

'Taro, Akira and Kiyoshi.'

"Hey, you into football then?" said Akira, grabbing her ball and heading it a few times, keeping it just out of her reach.

"You wanna come play with us?" Taro grabbed the ball from Akira and chucked it at Karin.

Karin flinched and caught it. She didn't know that she wanted to be going off with the older boys. But the prospect of a game of football with people who didn't suck as hard as her normal opponents, was a tempting one. Finally, after a long a painful pause she swallowed and nodded.

Takai grinned. "Wicked."

The four of them took off without so much as another word and Karin had to sprint to keep up with them, down the corridor and out onto the playing field….

Karin had the best time of her entire life. She dived, she tackled, she scored. Akira and Kiyoshi heaved her up on their shoulders shouting things like 'Isn't she fantastic! She kicks way more butt than you! And she's like what, eleven?'

It was such a great afternoon that she didn't notice the furtive looks the other team's captain was throwing her. Takai had hardly taken his eyes off her for the whole game despite being all the way at the other end of the pitch. If Karin had noticed his stares would have certainly made her very, very uncomfortable.

But as it went, she was quite happy to go score two more goals and become the darling of Akira and Kiyoshi's team. When the match ended she was sent off with many pats on the head and calls of 'You rock, Kurosaki.'

Karin beamed her rare little grin and stumbled wearily off to a tap to wash her face. Football was a hot and sweaty game, and she was covered in dirt. She cursed and scrubbed at her face, knowing what deep trouble she'd be in from fucking sensei if she showed up filthy to class again.

"Yare yare, aren't you a sight?" came a familiar drawl from behind her.

Karin leapt half a foot in the air. And turned to glare at Takai. He smiled his perfect white smile in return.

"Sumimasen, did I scare you Karin?"

Karin glowered even harder, she wanted to say something like 'No you didn't scare me, just don't sneak up on me like that, ever!' And she wasn't very keen on his use of her name so casually. It was off-putting.

"Here," he said, pulling a clean hankie out of his pocket and dipping a corner in the water. Before attempting to remove the mud from her face. Karin went to flinch away from this attention but to no avail. He gripped her arm and continued what he was doing, not looking at her. The way he took his time seemed to imply he was waiting for something.

Karin was briefly relived to hear someone calling Takai's name, think that would mean him going away and letting go of her. Her heart sank however as the slim dark figure of Taro came jogging over. He nodded at Karin briefly glancing at her, before turning to Takai.

It was obvious these two were better friends that with the other two who had first been introduced to Karin. They seemed to understand each other without many words. Both nodding and deliberating over their course of action.

Karin was suddenly quite frightened as to her situation. She always chose the tap furthest away from the over populated areas of the school, just to get some peace and quiet. This was apparent now. Despite lunchtime still going and student all over the school running around and shouting, there was not a sound to be heard where they were. That meant that no-one could hear them. Her arm still tingled where he had grabbed her she didn't like the way these boys seemed to be discussing her, in their own secret way.

She thought about running, it was a clear path back over the playground to where she guesses people would be, but she knew, fast as she was, these boys were far faster and could take her down in a few seconds. Even with a strong lead she would be caught easily.

'That is,' she reasoned. 'If they actually intend to do anything.' Karin knew she had a tendency to be suspicious and paranoid about everything. 'Maybe they are just talking, maybe this is all in my head.'

Takai turned back to Karin and smiled an icier smile than was natural. His teeth gleamed.

"We were discussing the match today. You did good. We think you're pretty cool, Taro and I were just thinking it would be good if you came and played football with us more often."

He started to walk towards her. Staring hard at her, as if he was thinking very carefully about what he would say or do next. Karin went to step backwards but found that Taro was there. Still refusing to look her in the eye.

She was trapped and she hadn't even noticed it. Takai continued to stalk towards her. He licked his lips and gripped her shoulders. Karin tried to jerk away but Taro grabbed her arms. They were both a lot bigger and stronger than she was powerless against them.

But she gave it a good shot, she swung her leg up to kick Takai hard, in the shin. But the older boy was too quick, he grabbed both her legs and shoved her down onto the ground, his hands roaming up her legs.

Karin struggled and kicked. She tried to cry out but Takai's mouth was covering hers, she couldn't breath, she shut her eyes, wishing it were over.

'Oh god,' she though. 'Oh god, no.'
