"Hey, Rumi-chan! Take a look over here!" Miana-san called, waving her hand at me to come over there. I walked over to her.
"What is it?" I asked as I was looking over at her. She pointed down at the glass.
We both bent down to get a closer look, "Isn't that the cutest thing you ever seen?" She pointed down to it again. It was a cute little heart locket and you could choose a chain to go with it which I thought was cool.
"It's coming..." A man with long, black hair says as he looks over at his assistant. "I can sense it..."
"Can you make out how powerful it is?" His assistant asked with a straight face.
"I'm not sure... It feels pretty strong; I don't think the nakama can handle this." He was still looking at him.
"Do you think we'll have to awaken them?" His voice sounded weakened by the thought of this.
"We might have to... It'll be pretty tough..." He answers his assistant.
"That was the most fun I've ever had! Don't you think so, too?" I looked over at Miana. She yawned and looked over at me.
"Yep!" She nodded. "Man, what a day! I could sure do this again!" Miana added.
"That's good..!" I smiled at her. "I'm glad you had fun."
"Hey, do you want me to walk you home?" She asked as she stopped walking.
"Sure but, could we go somewhere first?" I answered as I turned around to see her.
"Umm... Okay!"
"Wow, this place is amazing!" She gazed up at the starry night sky. "Thank you!" She smiled back at me.
"Huh?!? Did you hear that?" I asked. I was looking at her as she walked towards me.
"Hear what? I didn't hear anything..." She was still staring at me with a strange look.
"People screaming for help..." I replied.
"Is that what you heard?" She was standing next to me.
"Yeah..."I was still staring at her.
"Weird... Maybe it means something..." She walked closer to get a better look at our hometown from up here. "Huh! Did you see that?!?"
"What! What was it?" I ran next to her to see what it was that she was talking about.
"It looks like our town is being destroyed." We kept staring down below us.
"By what?" I asked.
"That's what we have to find out, come on!" She ran passed me.
"Hey! Wait up!" I started running after her. "Ahh! Owwe!" I fell flat on my face. "Do you think this is a good idea?" I got up as quickly as I could.
"Not really but, we got nothing better to do!" She stopped, I bumped into her. "Look at that!" She stared up at it. "It's huge!"
"Let's get out of here!" She shouted back at me.
"Good idea!" My voice shook with fear.
"Wake up the great offense and become the right fist!"
"I feel so strong... What is this feeling inside of me?" I opened my eyes. The beast turned its enlarged head to gaze at me. It raised its claw and tried to crush me but, I was to fast for it, I grabbed Miana and I jumped with her in my arms. 'I have to get her out of here... But, how?' I ran away from the large beast's claw.
I felt like I couldn't go on any more but, I had to for Miana's sake. "That's it!" I set Miana down in a safe place. A sword appeared in my right hand. "Prepare to die!" I charged in.
The claw came down too fast. I couldn't move. As I gazed up I thought, 'Is this the end?' I stood there in shock. I closed my eyes but, I felt something or someone carrying me. I could feel the wind on my face. "Wind?" I opened my eyes.
"Are you all right?" I blinked a few times.
"Umm... Y-yeah..." I looked up and saw a really pretty woman; she has blue eyes and long, blue hair. 'Her smile is so pretty...' I blushed.
"We better hurry up or that thing will destroy our town, right?" She winked at me.
"Umm... Right!" I nodded my head.
"All right then." She lowered my legs to the ground and she let go of me.
"Umm... What do we do?" I asked, still looking up at her face.
"You're the sword, right?" She asked, looking down at me.
"I don't know..." I answered.
"A sword popped out of your right hand, right?" She lifted my right hand.
"Yeah..." I looked at her crystal blue eyes.
"So, it could mean you're the sword..." She let go of my hand. "Have at it!" She jumped down.
"Wait! Mmm..." I moaned. I jumped down as well. 'W-what's that? Is that a shield?" I wondered.
"Please hurry!" She shouted back at me.
"Okay!" I replied still staring at her shield.
"I can't hold it much longer." She added still trying to hold it from crushing her.
'Umm... What should do I do?' I wondered. Without thinking, I ran up to it and jumped up in mid air. For some reason I closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes, I was facing away from the monster and I landed on my feet. Behind me, tiny fragments where in the air and then disappeared. I looked at my right hand and my sword went away.
I ran up to the woman. "Did I do well?" I looked up at her blue eyes.
She nodded, "You did better than I expected, how did you learn those moves?" She was looking down at me.
"Umm..." We heard clapping. I looked at the direction to where it was coming from.
"Very well done." He came from out of the shadows. "I was here the whole time." He smiled at us.
"Sensei," A young man ran to his side. "Are these people really them?" He asked. He has short brown hair and green eyes. He was wearing a normal blue t-shirt and jeans.
"I hope so..." He was still staring at us with his blue eyes.
"What the hell are you guys talking about?" I asked, staring at the both of them. "And what was that creature?" I added to my previous question.
"It was summoned by kurai; they are very bad people like we could call them people..." He looked back at his assistant.
"I'm not really sure if they're a nakama or not..." The young man with the shorter hair said.
"Hmmm..." I was wondering the same thing. "But, if they are able to turn back into their normal form, they should be." The man looked back at us.
"Umm... How do we turn back to our normal selves?" I asked.
"Err... I'm not really sure myself..." He said.
"Man... You're quite helpful." I glared at him.
"Do we have to interact with each other to change back?" The girl with the blue hair asked.
"Something like that, I'm pretty sure you're right..." He rubbed his chin.
"Sensei, maybe those two have to kiss to turn back." He looked at us.
I turned my head to look at her. 'B-b-but she'd be my first kiss... And, I really don't want my first kiss to be with a girl, why thank you...' I thought to myself.
"Are there any other ways to change back?" I heard a loud noise like people were jumping in the air.
"Hello! I heard there was trouble here, do you guys need-" She looked around.
"Looks like they all ready got it..." The man standing next to her said.
"Excuse me, do you know of a way to turn back into normal, by any chance?" I asked.
"Umm... Sure, all yah haveta do is kiss yer partner." She smiled. My smile turned into a frown.
'Man... This sucks...'
"Well, since there's no trouble we'll leave! Just call if yah need us!!!" They jumped away.
"What if they're pulling our chain?" I looked over at the girl. She shook her head.
"I hardly doubt that." She walked up to me. "Looks like we have no choice." She put her hand on my shoulder.
"B-b-but, we're both girls!"
"If you have a problem with it... There's nothing I can do... Sorry. I guess if you don't want to turn back to your normal self, its fine with me." She turned and started walking away.
"Well, we have a lot of work to do so we'll be leaving as well." The men both walked away.
I looked at the girl and she was pretty far ahead. "Wait!" I ran after her. She stopped and turned around. I caught up to her.
"Do you want me to walk you home?" She was looking down at me. I nodded. "All right." She smiled at me.
"Umm... Wait..." She was all ready all most at the top of the stairs. She turned to look at me.
"What is it?" She was staring at me with her pretty blue eyes.
"Umm..." My face turned red. "You want to turn back to normal don't you?" I felt my face get even redder.
"Only if you want to..." She walked down to where I was. "Close your eyes." I stared at her for a moment and I closed my eyes. I felt her pull me closer to her and I felt her lips press against mine.
'I-I-I can't believe she didn't care if I was a girl or not!' I opened my eyes. I stepped back, "Y-y-you! I-I-I can't believe I have to be with you!" I pushed her out of my way and ran as fast as I could all the way home. I opened the door, walked in and closed it behind me. I pressed my back against the door.
'The person I have to be with is... My ex-friend...' I walked into my room and closed the door. I jumped on my bed and started crying.
"I never wanted her in my life again! I hate her!!!" I sobbed out loud. 'I'm never gonna save the world with her!' I thought in my head. 'Her name's Ketzuba, Hareki, she's the most popular girl in school, now. We used to be friends; the most best of friends in the whole entire world until she chose her stupid popular friends over me... That's why I hate her... It hurts to have someone rule over you especially in a good friendship...'I cried myself to sleep.
The next morning I woke up to get ready for school, I did the normal routine as always; brush teeth, brush my hair, eat break fast, get my suite case and my mother hands me my packed lunch I thank her with a peck on the cheek and I'm outta there!
I got into the school and I sat in my desk. 'Good thing Ketzuba isn't in my homeroom...' I smiled happily to myself.
"Umm... Everyone, Ms. Ketzuba will be put into our homeroom as of tomorrow." I looked up at my homeroom teacher. "Oh, Ms. Yomitezu, I'll put you next to Mr. Watuzuyo and Ms. Ketzuba will sit next to you, Ms. Romitori."
'W-w-wha!!! S-she's gonna be in my homeroom and-and she's going to sit next to me.' I felt so pissed off. 'At least I can enjoy one day without her...' I put my head down.
When announcements were over and the bell rang I went to my next class. When we were friends we were so mad that we never had any classes together, but now I'm glad we don't. But, now she's in my homeroom!!! AHH!!! THAT PISSES ME OFF!!!
"Rumi-chan, I'm mad that we can't sit next to each other in homeroom any more... Anyway, do you know why they put your ex-friend next to you?" Miana sat next to me.
"Ms. Romitori, after class I want to have a word with you." Mr. Taicoma looked up at me from his desk.
"Umm... All right..." I looked at Miana. She shook her head.
"Poor you, you're having bad luck today." I nodded and put my head on my desk after class when everyone left we started talking.
"Uhhhmmm!" He cleared his throat. "I heard that your grandmother got into an accident." He said.
'Huh? No she didn't!' I sat there quietly.
"You must be going through a rough time anyway, since your uncle said you and Ms. Ketzuba are really close, we are putting her in all your classes. You're uncle said he was sick of you crying all night of not being in any of her classes so we decided to put her in all your classes as of tomorrow."
'W-w-wha-what!!!' I felt like punching him right in the face and I wanted to scream "You damn bastard! I hate her!!! I don't even want to be in the same presents with her!" But I didn't, "Is that all, Mr. Taicoma?" I asked. He shook his head.
"I'm really sorry for your trouble..." I walked to the door and closed it. "Wait." He opened the door. "Here's a hall pass." He handed it to me then the bell rang.
The day passed by very quickly and before I knew it, I was out the door and onto home. When I got home, I went into my room and I worked on my home work. I heard the door bell ring so; I went down stairs to see who was at the door. I opened the door. It was Miana.
"Come in." I smiled at her. She took off her shoes and put on the slippers by our door.
"Do you want to do homework together?" She asked. "I was on my way home and thought why don't we study together, today?" She smiled at me.
"Okay..." We went up into my room and I closed the door behind us.
"Man, I can't believe you had to talk to Mr. Taicoma, what did he have to say?" Miana asked.
"I really don't want to talk about it..." I muttered.
"Why not?" Miana asked. "Is it about Ketzuba?" She added to her question.
I nodded. "I hate her so much! Why did they put her in all my classes?!?"
"Ahh... Man... That sucks. Sorry, can't do anything about it. Hey, why did you two stop being friends anyway?" She asked.
"I really don't want to talk about that..." I looked away form her.
"Okay... I understand." I looked back at her and she smiled. "Hey, let's study!" We worked on our homework together and we studied for the big test next week. I showed her the stuff she didn't know how to do and she did the same for me.
"You know... I never had this much fun studying with anyone before; I guess it's just you!" We both laughed. We heard the door bell ring.
"I'll get it." I walked out of my room and I walked down the stairs. I walked up to the door and opened it and before I could do anything Ketzuba kissed me.
