Chapter 4
Fllay's revenge?
"You should have realised it by now right? There's even not a single chance that you will ever win me. Not to mention, my whole gang."
"What do you think I'm a dumb-ass? Of course I know that I can't win you" she said matter-of-factly, though she found herself having to struggle over her control of her muscles.
"Then why do you still continue to fight when you know that you can't win,"
This girl is very determined… reminds me of myself when I was younger…
"Do you want to join Friction?"
"…"
"It's a good deal ya'know"
"…"
"So are you gonna accept it or not?"
"Um…su-sure"
That's a bit weird…
"So what's your name again?"
"Cagalli Yula Attha"
"Welcome to Friction"
Cagalli woke up sweating and panting very heavily. Her eyes were in a daze as she let her thoughts race through her mind...
What is wrong with me? Why am I having the same dream over and over again? Am I regretting joining FRICTION 2 years ago? But it can't be! I'm happy, I have friends who stay by my side whenever I fight…no…they are called comrades…but they are still my friends…or is it not? ARH! I can't think properly!
"Miss Cagalli, are you awake now? You're going to be late for school"
"Yeah, I'm going down in 15 minutes."
Wow! Sure is rare to see Miss Cagalli awake so early…
"Hey, you know Athrun Zala is starting his first day today?"
"Yeah, I heard he's in this class"
"Oh wow! We're sooo lucky to be in the same class as 'the' Athrun Zala!"
"I'm so excited!"
Everyone was talking about Athrun's arrival in the classroom until Cagalli and her gang walked in. Everyone kept quiet, no one dared to make a single sound. There was a sudden hush. But teacher broke the silence when he made the new announcement about Athrun's arrival.
"Today we will have a new student joining us; I think some of u might have heard of him before as he is not only well-known in the 'high-class society'.
"We welcome Athrun Zala!"
"WHAT! I'M GONNA BE IN THE SAME CLASS AS THAT JERK!" Cagalli exclaimed, causing everyone to stare at her as Athrun walked into the classroom.
I'm in the same class as her? This is going to be interesting…
The teacher furrowed his brows to Cagalli's over-reacted reaction.
"So you two know each other? Well, that's good. Athrun, you may take your seat beside Miss Attha over there" the teacher said, gesturing Athrun to an empty seat beside Cagalli.
"Don't put him beside me" Cagalli said through gritted teeth as she stressed on the word "don't".
The teacher was taken aback for a while. But luckily someone came to his rescue.
"Threatening your teacher huh? Hmm...a nice way to get work done your way. But too bad it's not gonna be like that anymore." Athrun said in a cheery tune as he walked closer to the table he was 'assigned' to.
"Teacher, you can start the lesson now. Everything is settled." Athrun said as he reached his table.
"What the---…Who said that this is settled?"
"Why? Is it that you're scared to sit beside me, Friction."
"Yeah I bet she's scared of you"
"…Fllay!…How dare she say that!" Cagalli gritted her teeth but didn't reply. Cagalli cursed as she banged her fist on her desk.
"This is gonna be fun!" Athrun whispered as he sat down at his table.
"Yeah right, fun…" Cagalli whispered back in a monotonous tone.
After a while Cagalli got bored and asked Athrun " Hey, I'm wondering...why did you just join class today? I thought you were transferred here 3 days ago?
"It's because I'm the most popular guy and everyone grants me whatever I want"
"Yeah right, like anyone will ever grant you anything"
"They'll grant me anything with this!" he flashed her one of his most charming smiles. But to Cagalli it was an ugly, annoying, disgusting smirk.
ARH! This guy disgusts me!
Seeing the disgusted look on Cagalli's face made him smirk even more.
Bur he just chuckled before answering properly, "The headmaster allowed me to tour around the school for a few days before starting school that's all."
Satisfied with the answer, Cagalli ignored Athrun for the rest of the lesson. (She had nothing else to say anyway).
Rrrriiiiinnnnngggg!
The school bell rang 3 times, indicating that it was the end of lunch time. Everyone headed back to their classrooms except for one particular group of girls.
"Hey, I wanna go to the arcade, it's boring around here" Cagalli said as she walked to the back of the school, where they climbed over the fence, with her gang members following her.
"Yeah sure"
"Where are Lacus and Miriallia?"
"I dunno, Cagalli-sama…Lacus and Mir are not here again," one of them sighed before continuing, "I think we should kick them out of the gang, they don't even fight with us."
"Yeah, I think they would even faint seeing just one drop of blood."
Some giggled as a sign of support. That girl took it as a 'signal' to continue so she snickered and continued, "Heh! They're so pathetic I think if they actually get into a figh---AH!"
Her sentence was cut-short when Cagalli's fist stopped right in front of the girl who started the 'gossip'.
"I don't want anyone talking badly about them in front of me ever again. This is only a warning, the next time, I won't let you off."
After finishing her sentence, she turned around and walked away. Those who had been with her longer recovered from the 'shock' faster and followed Cagalli to the back of the school.
Somewhere in the school,
"Hello, yes it's me, they're skipping school today, and they're going to the arcade behind the shopping center near this school. Yeah, that's one... you have to walk through a dark alley to get there. Yes, like what I told you before, thanks cous."
Flap
A girl closed her cell phone before smirking to herself, "Now its showtime! I'm gonna enjoy watching this!" She exclaimed excitedly.
"Hey Cagalli-sama" a moderately tall girl said before walking out of the darkness revealing herself to the sunlight. Cagalli and her gang were about to walk through the dark alley when they were stop by a group of silhouettes.
A fist was swung forward as the 'grand entrance'. But Cagalli's reflex was fast. She caught it and twisted 'his' arm behind 'his' back and she pushed 'him' down roughly onto the floor within just a split second. But her thought of the silhouette as a guy was wrong. The person had a nice figure, long dark pink hair, which is almost red.
Fllay!
Realising that it was Fllay, she pushed her down even harder causing Fllay to scream.(A/N:I think it's not even painful...Honestly... I hate weaklings...)
Cagalli was enjoying the scream she got out from Fllay so she continued without realising that the group of people Fllay came with was approaching at a steady pace. But the number was lesser then Cagalli's gang. (A/N: Cagalli's gang is just a junior high school gang but a very big one which consist of about 20+ people)
Cagalli was about to kick Fllay but was interrupted by a voice not far behind.
"So you must be Cagalli...The one who's giving Fllay so much trouble."
Cagalli loosened her grip and tilted her head a bit to have a proper look at that person. She was tall, but not as tall as Cagalli, she was wearing a high school uniform. In fact that girl was in the same institute as her, only that Cagalli is in junior high and that girl was in senior high.
"So what if I'm Cagalli...got a problem with that?" Cagalli took a step forward and cracked her knuckles.
"So...not giving in huh? I was thinking of giving you a chance to apologise to my dear cousin...But! I don't think that's necessary anymore." She said walking forward too.
"Hey cous...could you give her double of what you were gonna give her? Cos she gave me this scar..." Fllay said pointing to the scar that was just made a few minutes ago when Cagalli pushed her down the floor.
"Meet my cousin Hana...she's from high school...actually our school's institute high school. So you better respect your seniors" (A/N: I just have to give Fllay's cousin a name.)
With that Fllay's cousin gave Cagalli a hard punch which caused everyone to gasp in shock. But that punch didn't make Cagalli reel backwards.
"Hope you enjoy being beaten up like how you beat the others up, but I gotta go now I've got something even more important to do than watching you get beaten up..." Fllay said before strolling back to school.
"Ok let's get back to work shall we? I'm gonna teach you lesson you'll never forget!" Hana cracked her knuckles and brought up her fist.
"Bring it on" Cagalli said coolly before landing a punch on Hana's face. The punch was so hard that it even make Hana stumble backwards. A drop of blood trickled from her swollen nose.
Her gang members stepped forward to help their gang leader, but were pulled to the side by Cagalli's gang members so that their leader can have a 'solo' fight.
"How dare you!" Hana screamed as she whipped off the blood with her hand.
"As daring as this!" Cagalli kicked Hana in her stomach causing Hana to be flung against the wall.
"AAAAHHHH!"
Hana screamed as Cagalli continued punching her despite her not retaliating.
"What happen to all those tough words now? Can't fight back?" Cagalli mocked at her...But of course Hana as a 'tough' gang leader, didn't give up...She tried to punch back but was either blocked or got a punch in return... (You can actually see the difference between them...Which is...ALOT!)
It was only less than an hour but Cagalli's gang won already. Though to Cagalli it wasn't a good victory, but she was still satisfied with the result. As a 'finishing touch' to her victory, she pulled Hana up by her blood-covered collar and shouted into her ears.
"This'll show you not to underestimate me...No wait...I said wrongly...This'll show you not to underestimate us!" Using her index finger to shove Hana's head, she continued, "Be sure to remember us, we are Friction."
After finishing her final 'speech', she and her gang walked away with victorious smiles on their face. But all Hana and her friends could do is only remain on the floor helplessly. (More of uselessly).
(A/N: So sad...Cagalli's plan to go to the arcade was destroyed by the Hanas...)
The next day...at the back of the school...
"Hey Fllay...what did your dear cousin Hana tell you about yesterday's result?" Cagalli said as she pushed Fllay onto the floor.
"What did you do to Hana?"
"O nothing...Just the usual thing I would give someone if they dared to challenge me..."
"What! You...you...mean...you have be...beaten her! I don't believe it"
"You must have been really angry at that time...since you actually tried to punch me" she snickered before continuing, "Let me think...what you would normally do...Hmm...All you could do is slap, scratch and slap...you can't even punch properly!"
"Shut up! Shut up!"
"Is this what you called revenge! You better try harder next time"
"I said SHUT UP!"
"Who are you to order me around?" Cagalli lunged forward and 'finish' up the 'undone' work.
Ear-piercing screams where heard near the backyard of the school, but no one bothered...Actually no one dared to bother...So the 'poor' victim was left there to fend for herself against more than 20 girls...
"Hey you all still wanna go to the arcade? Since our plans to go there were destroyed by some ignorant people who think they could actually win me..." Cagalli asked as she and her friends were walking down an alley...But this alley was quite big and was connected to the main road...
"We can still go now---"
"Sorry to interrupt you ladies...But I have an important issue to settle with you girls"
Cagalli and her gang had to turn around to see the source of the voice...It was a group of guys...When she turned back in front, she realised that a few more guys were there...which made her gang and her trapped in the middle...
I don't know if Fllay's revenge is what you has been expecting...Your version might be harsher so...Um... I dunno... Who are these guys anyway? Are they here to fight also? And if they are how on earth will Cagalli ever survive this? You can find that out in the next coming chapter!
Hope you have enjoyed this chapter...But if you haven't... You can wait for Chapter 5 which I think it'll be more exciting than this...
O yeah...Um...I'm in need of help...Need to ask anyone who knows:
1. When are summer holidays? Like from which August to which Feb? I have no idea! I'm just guessing! I'm using that information in the later chapter so I need to know the actual fact.
2. What is the meaning of AU?
3. Who is Shiho H.?
4. I need a nice name for their school and I hope that whoever is kind enough to suggest me will suggest it to me...ok...I'm talking nonsense now...Just very happy that I finished chapter 4! At last!
Pls reviewers! Enlighten me with your knowledge…Ahemanyway…PLS! I seriously know very little bout all this stuff... Anyway...Byez...
