Delivery Boy Soujirou
('-' ) ... ( '-')
Ch a p t e r O n e: The Ultimate DELIVERY Challenge!
('-' ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ( '-')
It was a typical sunny day in Kyoto, Japan. At least so far it was pretty typical for delivery boy Soujirou Seta. He had just came back from doing another one of his delivery assignments for his boss, Makoto Shishio, the owner of the Juppon Gatana: Japanese Fast Food Restaurant with Take Out and FREE Delivery!
Now waiting for his next delivery, Soujirou sat on one of the restaurant's dining table as he played with the restaurant's pet dog, Gyoza.
But then...
Without knowing that his whole life was about to change in the next second...
RING! RING!
The phone rang...
Yumi, Shishio's wife, rushed to the phone and picked it up.
"Moshi moshi?" Yumi greeted as she would normally have.
It took a second or two but the voice on the other line finally replied...
"Uh yeah? HELLO?! This Misao Makimachi! YES I KNOW! I AM THE MISAO MAKIMACHI, daughter of the owner of Oniwabanshuu Corps! HAHAHA! NOW! I'm hungry so you better make this fast! I want three bowls of chicken Yakisoba, four bowls of Ohitashi, two bowls of Shumai, a bowl of Tempura Shrimp Udon...eh actually make that five, 'cause I really like those HAHAHA. OH AND three bowls of Nippon Soba, and for sushi i want Futomaki Veggie, Nigiri, the Sashimi Platter. Does that come with wasabi? EGH, I hate wasabi! NO WASABI WHAT SO EVER, ALRIGHT?! Ok and lastly gimme a huge bucket of your best green ice cream--"
"Uh!" Yumi interrupted the caller Misao and asked, "And you want all of this as soon as possible?"
"OF COURSE LADY! I TOLD YOU I'M HUNGRY SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE ALL OF THIS READY WITHIN...10 MINUTES! YOU LOSE! I ALREADY CALLED THE SHINSENGUMI RESTAURANT WITH THE SAME ORDERS! Consider it a race. Who ever gets here first I will pay! The loser will be punished! Ya hear?! Oniwabanshuu mansion! BE ON TIME!"
The phone clicked. Yumi with a horrid face turned to Soujirou.
"Soujirou," she said in a dead serious tone. "Are you ready...son?"
Soujirou stood up immediately, "Yes ma'am! I was born ready!"
"Good!" Yumi quickly looked at chefs, "Usui, Anji, Saizuchi, Fuji, Iwanbo! Get ready!"
"YES YUMII-SAN!" They roared in unison as they held up their spatulas with pride!
Yumi took a huge breathe and began to call out the impossible order that they had been recieved by fate, "Three bowls of chicken Yakisoba, four bowls of Ohitashi, two bowls of Shumai, five bowls of Tempura Shrimp Udon, three bowls of Nippon Soba, Futomaki Veggie, Nigiri, the Sashimi Platter! NO WASABI! I REPEAT! NO WASABI!"
It was too much...for the chefs to handle... Saizuchi fell weak to his knees... "I...!" He cried out loud, "I can't do it!" he cried out tears of pain.
Anji, the gentle one of the shop grabbed Saizuchi, "Be a MAN! We can do it!" Anji looked intently at the big headed Saizuchi with gleaming, proud eyes. "Who are we!?"
Saizuchi stood up, wiping his tears, "THE JUPPON GATANA! HERE TO DEFEND THE JAPANESE PEOPLE AGAINST BAD TAKE OUT AND PROTECT THEIR MOUTHS BY GIVING THEM DELICIOUS JUPPON GATANA FAST FOOD!"
"HURRY UP YOU SHITWITS!" Yumi yelled at them with annoyance, "THEY'VE CALLED THE SHINSENGUMI TOO! WHO EVER GETS THERE FIRST GETS THE DOUGH!"
The chefs instantly went about to make the order. And within 3.141592653589793238462643 (yes the number for pi lol), the order was ready and set to go!
"Soujirou! Chou! Kamatari! Henya!" Yumi gave the boys the five boxes.
"Understood!" Soujirou, the leader, relpied. He quickly placed the boxes on his Juppon Gatana motocycle with a chibi shishio eating soba noodles on it.
"Ready?!" He looked at his gang of three delivery boys.
"Ready!" They replied
Then... he disappeared in the blink of an eye. Chou, Kamatari, and Henya struggling behind...
"Amazing... It's like he's some kind of samurai and can go really fast maybe by using a technique called the Shukuchi," Fuji said. Usui slapped him on the head, "Don't be silly."
Yumi stood, looking out and Soujirou's lost presence. "This is it... Now it's up to Soujirou... to change our FATE!" A tear fell down from Yumi's face. "HOUJI!"
"YES MA'AM!" Houji ran right next to Yumi and took out a hankerchief and wiped her tear away. "Yes Yumi-san. Ever since the damn Shinsengumi opened their restaurant...business have been sour for us," Houji said sadly, "But all of that will change today! Do not worry! Soujirou will not let us down! He's the best delivery boy in Kyoto!"
Yumi pushed Houji out of the way as she went back to her office, "It better be that way." Houji smiled sheepishly and followed behind her.
Yes, he was her bitch afterall.
('-' ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ( '-')
Hmm, so a race against the Shinsengumi. What a odd call but I can do it. Soujirou smiled as he drove on his motocycle. Chou and the others were finally catching up now as they were driving right behidn him.
He turned up the speed on his motocycle as he turned on Higashiōji street but however, he stopped as he came face to face with his arch nemesis: Okita Soushi and his own gang of Shinsengumi.
"Oh, I see you're delivering to the Oniwabanshuu's too." Soushi of Shinsengumi smiled at Soujirou.
Soujirou looked at Soushi. He was on his own moterbike, with the Shinsengumi label and a chibi Hajime Saitou on it eating sushi. Just as he had thought, Soushi and him were now on the same path to the Oniwabanshuu's. This shall be an interesting race...
"Of course," Soujirou smiled back, "Okita Soushi... We end this today."
"Oh definately," Soushi smiled.
"Definately," Soujirou replied.
A Shinsengumi person on Soushi's side yelled out, "You guys are done for! Got that?!"
Chou smirked and laughed, "Let's watch that happen!"
There was tension in the atmosphere. The feeling of rivalry and scorn for both sides was mutual.
Suddenly, the motocycles started roar to at each other but both did not even flinched as they looked intently into one's eyes...trying to read their opponent's moves.
And onward! Both motocycles raced ahead in full throttle as they sped for their life, honor, and dignity...
The first place they drove in after their official declaration of match, was the Nishikikoji Street Market of Kyoto. Soujirou on the right with his gang and Soushi on the right with his gang.
In Nishikikoji, the streets were filled with vendors selling everything from fish to poultry to vegetables and fruits of any kind. The race became more deficult as the roads became narrower and there were more innocent people around.
Soujirou jumped forward and has the lead! Since the road was so narrow, there could only be one who could lead the way.
"Yeah Soujirou!" Chou cried out!
Oh but victory was not theirs yet. Just as Soujirou thought the win would be easy...a sharp, metal, blood thirsty trash can rolled out seven feet in front of Soujirou! But, using his skills learned as a delivery boy for five years, Soujirou did a huge jump on his motocycle, advoiding the dangerous rolling trash can.
Soujirou continued to be in the lead. Chou and Kamatari behind him continuing with Okita and his gang, however, Henya was lagging behind in the way back.
Settings changed as now they were now onward to the Togetsu-kyou Bridge. The roads became wider and Soushi had caught up with Soujirou. They were now neck to neck.
"I have to say, you're impressive!" Soushi cried out as he grinned ahead.
Soujirou took a second to look over and smiled back ahead on the road ahead him. "Thank you!"
But then Soushi's engine roared and he drove faster. He was now in front of Soujirou. "Ah darn it." Soujirou started to speed faster but suddenly to his horror. The bridge started to be pulled apart. The center of the bridge was slowly being pulled up as the construction men were working on it.
Soujirou looked at Soushi but he didn't even flinched. Then suddenly, Soushi drove into the center of the bridge even as it was coming apart but he managed to jump over to the other side.
Unbelievable! Something you would see in the Fast and the Furious 4!
Soujirou smiled, "I can do this..." And he did! He imitated Soushi's action and jumped over the center of the bridge as well.
However some of the others were not as fortunately. One of Soushi's men couldn't jump over the bridge and fell into the Kyoto bay.
"Soooouuuuussshiiiii!" It was slow motion-ed.
Soushi turned around and yelled, "Throw me the food boxes!"
The falling man did as he was told and used all his last strength to throw their precious take out for Soushi to catch. With arms of steel, Soushi caught the food with struggle but he managed to do it sucessfully.
"What the heck?!" Kamatari yelled. Chou was in front of him and they managed to jump over the bridge sucessfully but where the hell was Henya?!
Oh no...
Henya was the last person and he didn't even get to the bridge center yet. Kamatari knew that he would not be able to jump over. "Henya! Throw me the food!"
Henya with anxiety, Henya did as he was told. However, as after he threw the box of food in the air, a sneak attack was implicated!
A Shinsengumi enemy had intercepted the Juppon Gatana food. Kamatari looked in horror, "FCK!"
He had no choice but to do this...
"GIVE ME THE FOOD!" Kamatari turned around and stopped right in front of the thief. The man stopped in terror as Kamatari halted his bike in front of him. He threatened the guy as he held a gun in front of his face.
The man looked at him scared out of his shitwits. "NOW."
Declaring defeat, the man did as he was told and handled over the boxes to Kamatari.
Laughing, Kamatari pulled the trigger.
"AHH!" The guy screamed but the only thing that hit him was water. -.-' It was a water gun.
Kamatari stopped laughing and put away his gun and continued after Soujirou.
('-' ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ( '-')
The final moment was coming... All their blood, sweat, and tears would finally be paid off.
In the far distance, the view of the Oniwabanshuu mansion was coming onto view. Again Soujirou and Soushi was neck to neck. It now everything or nothing.
Their motocycles came into a halt. Chou and Kamatari was there as well and so was the rest of Soushi's gang.
"Hurry Soujirou!" They quickly gave him the food boxes, "Start running!"
Balancing five boxes, Soujirou ran as fast as he could. Then Soushi appeared right next to him!
"You don't know when to quit, don't you?" Soujirou smiled.
"No, that's why I always win!" Soushi laughed.
The two now were moments away from reaching the Oniwabanshuu gate. As they got closer, they saw a little girl standing at the gate, grinning behind a red finishing line. There's not denying it, that must be the customer!
Both of their ran even faster now with everything they got.
"A little faster...!" Soushi forced his legs.
"Cooome on!" Soujirou clenched his teeth.
"Go SOUJIROU! SOUJIROU! SOUJIROU!!"
"OKITA! OKITA! OKITA! OKITA!"
They were now seconds away from the girl.
"HALT!" The girl screamed at the top of her lungs as she held out her hand.
Soujirou and Soushi stopped suddenly but hardly able to control their velocity.
Their sneakers screeched against the fraction of the road as they came to a stop.
The girl that stood before them, they could tell right away, that she was of higher class. She wore an expensive, casual shirt with designer shorts. Her hair was blue and long in a braid. The girl smirked as she looked at both of the tired, sweaty boys. "You boys from Juppon Gatana and Shinsengumi takeout?"
They nodded in unison.
She laughed, and looked at her wrist watch, "10.0235 minutes. It took 10.2 minutes for you to do a simple delivery? Maa maa." She shook her head in disappointment. "Unfortunately, the Kenshingumi restaurant had arrived already with their food and left."
Soujirou and Soushi fell to the ground in horror. All the work for nothing... Even though they were young men, Soushi and Soujirou held on each other and cried in shame.
o.O Misao couldn't believe she just made two guys cried because of her. Maybe her little tactics was a little harsh?
"Hey... yo, get up!" Misao yelled, "I'll pay for your services and your food. So...do yourself a favor and don't cry."
