Two of a Trio
Disclaimer: I don't own any of Eyeshield 21.
Author's Note: This is rather random idea that just popped up and kept on going. I've been on a roll thinking of all sorts of ideas and this one came right out.
"Ne, Hiruma-kun, don't you remember on nights like these you, me, and Musashi use to watch the stars for hours on end?" Kurita flopped down on the ground and stared up at the night sky. The stars twinkling brightly were a rare sight as many a time clouds seem to cover them up clearly. However, on nights like these, there were no clouds in sight and you can only see the stars and the moon shining down upon the earth, bathing everything in a glow.
"Keh, damn fatty, but I must admit that in Junior high we did stare at the stars often enough." Hiruma sat on the flat ground of the track in Deimon's field, polishing one of his many firearms.
"Oh, tomorrow's when we have sign ups for American Football, hopefully people will sign up this year and not like the last." Kurita sighed as he sat up. He nearly trembled at the thought of no one signing up, like last year.
"Damn fatty, we already secured the damn pipsqueak and the damn monkey. We'll just fill in on everyone else. Tomorrow they're going to be taking a trip to hell." Hiruma grinned at the activity he planned tomorrow. Oh yes, having them take a bag of ice and make it to the top of Tokyo Tower before it melts, nothing but sweet torture.
"Yeah, bu-but they mi-might no-no-not make it up to To-Tokyo Tower," Kurita stuttered and then he trembled when he heard the cackle that escaped Hiruma.
Hiruma smiled, showing off his devil sharp teeth and let loose a loud cackling laugh. He loved seeing everyone get riled up because of him, to him, if the one of the funniest things in the world. "IF they can't make it up there, than they aren't qualified. Simple as that."
Kurita stopped shaking when he came to a conclusion that seemed preposterous, but at the same time, strangely fitting. "You want them to feel challenged and to prove their worth. Those with immense determination will make it and you want to bring that out." Kurita jumped up with anime tears running down from his eyes at the realization.
"Shut the hell up! You're annoying me!" Hiruma growled, sending several rounds of bullets at Kurita, each missing by a few centimeters. Ever since those brats and even those Hah brothers started playing with them in the last two games, he actually felt that he could pull off a team, and it will be complete when Musashi comes back.
"Well, tomorrow should be fun." Kurita once again flopped onto the ground to stare up at the stars and moon that he came to be so fond of. It made him think of when the trio was still together with dreams of the Christmas Bowl as their main priority. For the two of them it still is, but one drifted away.
Hiruma shot several bullets into the air and smirked. "Damn straight and from there on, everything will go as according to plan. We'll get to the Christmas Bowl if it's the last thing we do!"
I wonder if I made Hiruma OOC. I tried hard not to. Well, as I always ask, by all means give out Constructive Criticism as I'm sure it'll be helpful and appreciated.
