Chapter 2

Settling In, Seeing Sights and Chance Encounters

STILL KAT'S POV.

I hadn't known that I had slept through a seven hour flight until Cloe and Jade woke me up. I guess that I hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before. But now I was rested, I guess because now I was ready to sight see.

We boarded off the plane, got our luggage and were picked up by a limousine. The chauffer said that my uncle had gotten tied up in some important business, so he couldn't make it. But he would see us at his building. And the hotel had been all checked and made perfect for our arrival. I was actually getting excited. Cloe and Jade were, especially when they saw the hotel and our room. It was amazing. It was a large suit, with three rooms. They were blue and light blue rooms. Each had beds, dressers, closets, mini fridges that were fully stocked, flat screens, bathrooms, windows with great view and were each the size of a living room. This place was amazing. Plus the pool and all the other things this place had was really, just awesome.

After we unpacked and settled in, Cloe and Jade came into my room.

"Have you guys seen the view?" I asked.

"Forget the view. Let's sight see!" said Jade.

"Yeah, let's go!" Cloe agreed.

We got dressed in some different clothes before we left. Jade was wearing a black tank with denim blue Capri pants and blue and white converse.

Cloe was wearing a kind of yellow spaghetti strap bell shirt, with a white shirt underneath, and white skinny jeans and white only converse,

And I had on a pair of white Capri with a light blue short sleeved shirt, and black converse.

We headed out and got breakfast, then went on sight seeing.

We went to a lot of different clothing, shoe and accessories stores. Al of which were Cloe's request. We all had clothes, but in different numbers of bags. I had three bags. Each of which had clothes, a new pair of shoes, and lots of accessories. Jade had five bags. Three of which were full of clothes and the two others were full of shoes. But Cloe trumped both of us. She had seven bags in hand. Containing all kinds of things. I couldn't even keep track of it all.

We brought the bags back to the hotel and had them taken to our suit. After that we went to the park for a while. Then at my request we went to the sports museum for about two hours. And even ran into someone we knew there. As we were walking I saw a tall man, with tan skin, and black hair who was signing some boy's note pad.

"Komija-san, konechiwa. Maji de?" I asked. (How are you doing?) Kojima had been a family friend for years. So I would always see him around or hear from him every once in a while. Or he would give his regards to us or vice versa.

"No need to be so formal with your talk Kat. Just English is fine." he said waving to us.

"My friends and I have been good how about you?"

"Same old Kat. Always considerate of others." he said smiling. "I've been good."

"That's nice to here." said Cloe.

"So anything new? How's the team?" asked Jade.

"I have a feeling that they will be having a very good streak soon. Tomorrow is the pre-season game. You should come. You uncle told me about why you girls came here. And I told him to give my regards to all your parents." he said.

"Thank you. I'm sure they're glad to here from you. You don't have to be a stranger sometimes ya know." Jade said, smirking.

"Alright. I'll try not to be one. And Kat, you should try and make it on your uncle's team. I know you've got talent, so does he. So why not try?" he asked

"Yeah. Go for it Kat. You would be the best on the team I bet." said Cloe.

"Well, I'll try. But if it doesn't work out for the Lycans, I'll try again some other time for a different team. I can only make it if I prove that I've got the stuff to make it big." I said, determination filling my voice.

"Great. By the way, your uncle said to tell you, that if I saw you, he wanted me to tell you to come to his office immediately. All of you."

"Okay, thanks Kojima." I said. But then I thought about something.

"Hey Kojima, what makes you sure about the Lycans. I mean we'll always root for them no doubt. But what makes you even more sure? What do you know?" I asked eyeing him suspiciously.

"All will be revealed in due time. Now hurry, your uncle wont wait forever." he said.

"Okay. Bye Kojima." my friends and I said all at once. We looked at each other and laughed. We were the best of friends and the weirdest sometimes.

We left the museum and headed for my uncle's building.

Once we got there, the girls were amazed at how big it was. But I wasn't I had been here before, so it wasn't new. But to them it was amazing and totally new. They waited in the lounge and I went to my uncle's office. I was still wondering what Kojima meant when the elevator stopped and the doors opened. I walked to the door and just opened it. However, what I wasn't expecting was for my uncle to be there, his secretary, his bodyguard and some freakishly spikey headed blonde guy sitting there talking with him. Well they were all talking.

The second I set foot in the office, all eyes were on me.

"Oh! Uncle, I'm so sorry."

I couldn't help but feel embarrassed and blush as the spikey headed turned and looked at me. He turned back to my uncle though.

"So we have a deal?" he asked.

"Yes. Thank you." my uncle replied.

The man stood up and walked towards the door, which was were I was.

He was tall, lanky, but still had muscle build, he had blonde, outrageously spiked hair, and had hazel, yellowish eyes. We was wearing a white button up shirt, and the first three were undone, black pants, black shoes and he also had on a gold chain and ring. And I guess that I would be lying if I said that I didn't feel the least bit attracted to him. Then as he walked by, he glanced at me as he said,

"Hey."

"Hi." I replied. And I was sure my heart was pounding at seventy-five miles per beat. I hoped that I would see him again as well. I turned back to my uncle.

"Who was that?"

"Toua Tokuchi."

"Well, what was he doing h-"

"Don't worry, you'll meet him officially, soon enough." he said. "How are you? I hope that you have been keeping up with your baseball skills."

"I have been. And uncle when does the team go to practice?"

"At five. Why?"

"I was wondering. Can my friends and I go to the stadium and maybe do a little practice of our own. Not like a real game, just a little bit of pitching and batting practice. Please." I asked, hopeful.

He thought it over, looked at the clock and then started to speak.

"Alright, it's two o'clock. If you leave now, then you and your friends will have three hours at the stadium."

"Really!? Arigato!"(Thank You)

"Just remember to find a good spot when the game starts." he reminded me.

"I will. Thank you uncle!"

"Of coarse. Now go on and have fun."

"Okay. Good bye uncle. And thanks again!"

I left after that and went straight to the girls. When I told them they were excited. So we headed right to the stadium and I couldn't help but think about the Toua Tokuchi person…

OKAY, HEY GUYS I HOPE YOU LIKED. PLEASE REVIEW, BUT DON'T FLAME. IT IS MY FIRST EVER ANIME STORY. PEACE OUT
