Yomi and Tomo's Tale
(note, this chapter starts off on the day before Osaka's get together)
Yomi was window shopping for a present for Tomo. "Damn, no matter what I buy her, she's just going to say something negative about it." She kept looking as she was seriously thinking about that ipod Tomo talked about.
As she kept staring at the window, a bus that said "OSAKA" on front passed behind her, Yomi didn't notice that among the passengers on the bus was a sound asleep Chiyo. "WHAT THE HELL AM I GONNA GET HER?!!!"
------------------------------------------------------------
Some time later Yomi was passing in front of a restaurant. There was a sign that said KARAOKE NIGHT on it. Yomi smiled. "At least this night won't be a total loss."
She went inside and signed her name on a list of people who wanted to brave the stage and give a performance. Suddenly she noticed one of the names. "It can't be." The music started up and the wildcat ran up to the stage. "HEY Y'ALL THE NAME'S TOMO TAKINO AND I'M GONNA ROCK YOUR WORLD!!!!!!!"

Everyone gave Tomo a standing O!!!!! "PEACE I'M OUT!!!!!!" yelled Tomo as she noticed Yomi standing among the crowd.
"Hey Yomi, you heard me singing and you came to check it out huh?" Yomi just stared at her. "If they liked her, then they should really enjoy my singing." she thought.
Yomi headed for the stage. "Um what are you doing?" asked Tomo. "What do you think?" answered a very annoyed Yomi. "I am going to perform."
Tomo's eyes grew wide. "Oh dear God no." she said softly. Tomo quickly made for the exit.
-----------------------------------------------------
Tomo was just standing outside waiting for the inevitable...
"Hello my name is Miss Koyomi Mizuhara and I would like to perform a little number for you..."
"Here it comes." Tomo just closed her eyes and covered her ears.
AmEEEE agaRIIII SORAAAA kaRAAAA YuuyAkEEEE iRO ga NOzukeBAAAAA naTSUkashIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!
Suddenly people started to rush out of the restaurant. Some crying, some begging for mercy, and one person could be heard saying that the horrific sound was bad enough to wake the dead.
A few moments later the doors swung open and Yomi came flying out and landed on the ground. "AND I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU IN HERE EVER AGAIN!!!!!" said the very angry owner from inside.
"Real Smooth Yomi" snickered Tomo." Yomi then proceeded to give her an uppercut.
--------------------------------------------------
"Why do you always insist on singing?" asked Tomo "You know you suck at it." Yomi's glasses shined. "As I always said I sing from the heart" she answered.
"Well if you ask me, I think you need a heart transplant." Tomo responded. Yomi just sighed. "By the way." Tomo continued. "Did ya get me my present yet."
"Geez, don't be so anxious will you." Yomi told her. Tomo stared at her. "You didn't buy me anything yet did you." Yomi just gave a sweatdrop. "This is PERFECT!!!!" Let's go shop for my present together, I'll help you pick the perfect gift for me."
"Hold it a second Tomo, I'm the one who's supposed to pick the present for you, and besides, have you bought Chiyo her present yet?"
"Of course." Tomo beamed proudly. "Let me guess." Yomi answered. "You got her a fighting game or no wait, maybe a Gundam model kit right?"
"I got her a dress." Tomo answered.
Yomi just stood there with her mouth wide open. "What?" she asked in a shocked tone.
"I got Chiyo a pink dress, I managed to get her dress size from Osaka."
Yomi just stared at the wildcat. There she was probably the most annoying obnoxious person she's ever known, and she just told her that she bought a small pink dress.
"Wow Tomo, what can I say, you...surprise me." Yomi told her. "What made you think of getting her a dress."
"I don't know, I just remembered Chiyo once said she wanted a small pink dress to wear on Christmas so I thought, what the hell." Tomo stopped for a second. "Wait, are you saying that I can't but a dress?"
"Well the other day you said you didn't want to buy anything cute for fear of someone seeing you." Yomi just thought for a minute. "By the way what happened with that, I mean about being nervous about buying something cute."
"Come on Yomi, It's Chiyo, I gotta suck it up when it comes to things like that."
Yomi just kept staring at her. Deep down it seemed Tomo was a very caring person. "Maybe I really will get her that ipod." she thought.
"Besides." she continued. "I'm just glad I don't have to deal with buying anything else cute for the rest of the year huh?" Yomi just sighed. "Now that's the Tomo I know." Yomi was about to walk across the street when an ambulance quickly approached. "HEY WATCH OUT YOMI!!!!!" Tomo grabbed her and pulled her back, just missing the ambulance.
"You gotta watch where you were going what were you thinking." Yomi was embarrassed about her rare showing of recklessness. "I guess my mind was wandering."
"Hey leave the airhead situations to Osaka okay." Tomo said as she smiled. Yomi just shook her head as she gave a small smile. "Okay."
------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey check this out." Tomo said as they turned to face a store window full of sporting goods. A police car passed behind them, Sakaki was in the backseat, handcuffed. Of course Yomi and Tomo didn't notice. "Wow look at that pair of hiking boots." Yomi just stared at them. "What about them?"
"I'd bet they would go great with my camouflage jeans." Tomo said as she smiled.
Yomi made a face. "Ugh, those things, why did you even get those tacky jeans." Tomo just stared at her. "Hey I like those jeans, besides I never say anything about your outfits."
"YES YOU DO, YOU'RE ALWAYS SAYING THAT THEY LOOK TOO TIGHT ON ME!!!!!" Yomi screamed.
"Details, details." Tomo answered when she noticed something. "Oh my God look." Tomo pointed behind Yomi. Yomi turned around and saw a car plowed into a telephone pole. There was a group of people being interviewed by police.
"So you didn't see her punch him?" the officer asked a young man. "No I didn't, if you ask me the guy passed out from all that drinking." The officer sighed as he knew the young man was lying. "Okay thank you." And he walked off.
The officer turned to Tomo and Yomi. "So what about you two, did you see anything?"
Yomi seemed confused. "Actually we just got here."
"Yeah, what the heck happened here?" demanded Tomo. The officer scratched his head. A drunk driver almost hit three girls, luckily the oldest girl managed to get everyone out of the way, but one of the two younger girl got injured."
Tomo clenched her fist. "That bastard, why the hell would he be drinking and driving, if I were here earlier I would've knocked that guy to the other side of the universe."
"Actually, the oldest girl did just that, that's why we had to arrest her."
Yomi just shook her head. "That seems pretty unfair." The officer gave yet another sigh. "I know but we had no choice, the driver is pressing charges." Tomo and Yomi just looked at each other. "Who's the girl?" Yomi asked.
"Sorry, I can get any info, unless you know her?" the officer replied.
"Well what did she look like?" Tomo asked. "She's a tall girl with long black hair." the officer responded
"Do you think...?" Yomi asked Tomo. Tomo just scratched her head. "No way" she said as she smiled. "She's not the type."
Yomi turned to the officer. "Sorry officer I guess there's nothing more to talk about."
Tomo looked around. "So is she gonna go to prison...the girl I mean."
The officer just smiled. "I really wouldn't worry about, everyone here is saying they didn't see a thing. I know they're lying to protect her, but hey I already did my job." he walked off.
"So you really think it wasn't Sakaki." Yomi asked Tomo.
"I already told ya,. She's not the type." Tomi answered.
----------------------------------------------
THE NEXT DAY
Yomi was approaching a superstore, she finally caved in and decided to get Tomo that ipod. As she was approaching the entrance. someone in a catsuit ran by her, it appeared to be holding a briefcase. "That was weird." Thought Yomi.
A group of guys that appeared to be thugs rushed up to her. "Did ya see someone in a catsuit rush by here?" one of them asked.
"Uh yeah, it went that way." she pointed down the sidewalk. "Thanks." the large thug said. he turned to the others. "Come on we can't let it get away." they ran off. "That was even weirder." she thought.
After she had gone in Chihiro ran up and stopped in front of the store gasping for breath. "How does she get into these situations." she thought for a second before she started to run off again in the direction of where the catsuit person and the thugs were heading. (we'll leave this for another chapter 'kay) :)
-----------------------------------------------
Yomi knew that the electronics section was on the third floor so she headed for the elevator. As the doors opened someone approached from behind her. "Hi Tomo." she sighed without even turning around.
"Hey Yomi, whatcha doing here, oh wait you're gonna buy me my present right?" she gave a wicked smile. "I guess I'll tag along and keep you company." Yomi just sighed. "Tomo I would really feel it would be better if I go alone, if you're there when I buy you the present it would be ruin the surprise."
"What surprise, I'm gonna no what it is when I open it anyway." Tomo said.
Yomi gave up. "Fine have it your way." Yomi angrily went into the elevator. "I should get something cute just for ruining the shopping experience."
The door closed, for some strange reason, they were the only two in the elevator. "Must be bad karma." Yomi thought. Suddenly the elevator stopped moving. Yomi tried pushing the buttons but nothing happened. "Are we stuck?" Tomo asked.
"Looks that way." Yomi answered. She turned to look at Tomo, it looked like she was freezing up. "Tomo?"
"WE'RE GONNA DIE, OH IT'S NOT FAIR I HAVEN'T EVEN LIVED A LONG LIFE!!!!!!!!"
"Tomo get a hold of yourself, we're stuck in an elevator, that's all." Yomi said as she grabbed and shook Tomo to try and calm her down."
"T...the walls are closing in...I can feel the air being used up." Tomo said in horror.
"That's it." Yomi said and gave her an uppercut.
Tomo slowly stood up. "Thanks Yomi, I needed that." she said with a grateful smile. "Anytime." Yomi sad sarcastically.
Tomo looked around. "So do you think anyone will notice us here." she asked. "Don't be ridiculous, of course someone is gonna notice, we'll be out of here in no time."
--------------------------------------------
SIX HOURS LATER...
"How can nobody noticed a broken elevator?" Yomi said fuming. It was bad enough that no one noticed that the elevator wasn't working, but for the emergency phone to be out of service was even more annoying.
Tomo looked at her watch. "Osaka's party starts in a couple of hours." she was sitting down against the wall.
"STOP TELLING ME HOW MUCH TIME IS LEFT FOR OSAKA'S PARTY WILL YOU!!!!" Now it was Yomi who was losing it.
"Hey take it easy Yomi." Tomo told her.
"Take it easy?...TAKE IT EASY!!!!!!! We've been in this damn elevator for over six hours and nobody has even come buy to check it out, so if I want to scream my head off...I'M GONNA SCREAM MY DAMN HEAD OFF!!!!!!!!!"
Suddenly the elevator started to move. "FINALLY!!" Yomi yelled.
--------------------------------------------------------
The doors opened and outside of the elevator was a man wearing a maintenance uniform. He seemed confused when he saw the two girls. "What are you doing in there?"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT ARE WE DOING IN THERE!!!!!" Yomi was already past angry, she was fuming. "DIDN'T YOU NOTICE THAT THE ELEVATOR WASN'T WORKING!!!!!!!" Tomo just stepped back a little.
"Of course we knew they were not working, we had put an out of order sign on each floor since this morning."
"WELL THERE WASN'T ONE WHEN WE GOT ON!!!!!!!!" Yomi was full of enormous rage.
Tomo grabbed Yomi's shoulders. "Down Yomi, down girl." Tomo turned to the maintenance man. "You know we really didn't see any sign." The maintenance man scratched his head. "That's strange." he thought for a minute. "Oh yeah now I remember someone had taken it off so I went to go get another one, you must have gotten on it while I was getting it."
Yomi just gave a huge sigh. "Then that would explain why no one noticed." she said.
"Sorry about that, this elevator has been acting up, even the emergency phone won't work."
Yomi started to blush. "I'm sorry about my outburst just now, this isn't normally like me."
"Wanna bet?" Tomo said with a smirk which caused Yomi to give her yet another uppercut.
-----------------------------------------------------
Outside the store Yomi and Tomo rushed out of the store. Yomi managed to buy Tomo her ipod and somehow she had done it without Tomo noticing.
"We gotta hurry if we're going to make Osaka's get together." Yomi said.
"I'll meet you there, I gotta go home and get Chiyo's present." she ran off in the opposite direction.
As Yomi kept running, she noticed someone in front of her. "Sakaki?" she asked.
Sakaki quickly turned around and saw Yomi. "Are you running late too?"
Yomi just blushed. "Yeah, somehow Tomo and I got stuck in an elevator for six hours." Sakaki just gave her a strange look. "I see."
"So Sakaki, why are you running late." Yomi asked.
"I got arrested for assaulting a drunk driver." she said calmly.
"Oh." Yomi said before she realized what she said. "YOU MEAN THAT WAS YOU?!!!!!"
"We have to hurry or we'll be late." Sakaki said and with that they continued on their way to Osaka's house.
