Chapter 2
Trapped. Trapped like a rat…er…like a dragon…Either way, Hatori was trapped in between Shigure and Ayame.
'Oh! I know how to get out of this!' Hatori thought. Slowly, so Ayame wouldn't jump him, he pulled 20 dollars out of his pocket.
"Hey, what cha doin'?" Ayame asked, cocking his head.
"I'll give you my money if you leave me alone…" Hatori said, showing them the money.
"Holy Labradoodle!! Twenty bucks!!" Shigure shouted, grabbing the money.
"Really?! We can get popsicles from the ice cream man now!!" Ayame glomped Shigure in his happiness.
"Are you kidding? We can BUY the ice cream truck!" Shigure said, doing a happy dance with Ayame.
Hatori took the chance and ran like the wind from his relatives, hoping he could hide before they found out he was gone.
Just when he dove behind a bush, he heard Ayame ask, "Hey, Gure? What's that word on the money?"
Shigure looked. He gasped. "THAT BUTT FACE GAVE US MONOPOLY MONEY!!!!!!"
Hatori jumped out of the buch and yelled, "I'm not a butt face, dog breath!!!!"
"Are too!!!" Shigure shouted.
"Am not!!" Hatori yelled. Ayame just loked back and forth between them.
"Are too!!
"Am not!!"
RECESS IS OVER!!!
"Am not!!" Hatori pointed at Shigure.
"Are too!!" Shigure pushed Hatori, who pushed him back.
Himura-sensei had stopped caring what they did a long time ago; as long as they didn't break any thing, he wasn't going to say anything. They wouldn't shut up, even after he went into Battosai mode. As it was, he was planning a LOOOOOOONG vacation, maybe to Hawaii, or even Alaska.
Anyway, back to the fight.
"Am not!!" Hatori shoved Shigure into Kurogane's fort, knocking it over.
Shigure glared at Hatori and shoved him back with twice the force. "YES, YOU ARE!!!"
Unfortunately, Shigure hadn't known that Ayame was behind Hatori.
So, Hatori fell backwards into Ayame, making them both fall down really hard.
"YAY!! Hatori likes me!" Ayame yelled, squeezing Hatori in a bear hug.
"Can't…breathe!" Hatori whispered. Ayame loosened his grip, but still didn't' let go. Fortunately, for Hatori anyway, Ayame's grip was just loose enough for Hatori to squirm out and stand up…
Only to be tackled again by Shigure, argument forgotten. "YAY!! He likes us!"
Himura-sensei was fed up. He walked over and picked up Shigure before grabbing a fleeing Ayame. "Shigure, you go stand in that corner over by the window; Ayame, you go stand in the corner with the bookshelves. Hatori, you stand in the corner by my desk." Hatori stood up and stared defiantly at the teacher, but remained silent.
"Awwww!! But I don't wanna!!" Ayame started whining. He squirmed in Himura-sensei's grip…
And Himura snapped. This scene has been edited for violence toward small children In the end, Ayame and Shigure were crying in their corners; Hatori was glaring in his; and Himura-sensei was standing clueless in the center of the classroom, surrounded by a cloud of loose papers and open books.
Deciding he once again didn't want to know what had happened, Himura-sensei chose to move on with the lesson.
About five minutes into the lesson, a spit ball was seen flying toward Ayame's corner from Shigure's direction. Ayame, still crying, shot a teary-eyed glare at Shigure before launching a spit ball of his own. Unfortunately, Ayame's didn't quite make it all the way to Shigure's corner and ended up landing on Yahiko's head. Yahiko didn't seem to notice and class continued.
A few minutes later another spit ball was seen flying across the room from Shigure's corner, this one headed in Hatori's direction. Hatori sent a more effective glare than Ayame's before shooting his own spit ball. His spit ball actually hit Shigure, who let out a disgusted squeak before shooting back.
However, Himura-sensei had unwittingly stepped into the line of fire, and the spit ball meant for Hatori ended up smacking him on the side of his neck.
Shigure cowered in his corner when Himura-sensei leveled a glare at him that would have frozen a polar bear…Poor Shigure…

Authors' Notes:
This fic will be temporarily discontinued, since we seem to be getting more high school ideas than elementary ones. So, we'll soon have a Mabudachi high school fic.
