Chapter 4

SISTERS AND MONSTERS

When Ichigo got home after school he found his sisters arguing about something in there room, at the top of there voices.

'… I don't really know what you see in him in the first place, Yuzu! He's such a jerk! '

'I didn't ask for your opinion, Karin! Besides, you think that every boy in this world is a jerk!'

'But he most certainly is! He's always commanding other people around! And the way he talks! Pig-headed idiot! And you're letting him borrow your books again… He didn't even return the ones he borrowed last week! And that was my copy of Shonen Jump you've given him!'

Ichigo popped his head in the rooms doorway.

'Just who are you two talking about?'

Karin answered him. 'It's just this new transfer student in our class… almost all the girls are wild about him, but I guessed that Yuzu would know better…'

'Karin!' screamed Yuzu in humiliation.

Ichigo now had a very dumb folded expression on his face, and was looking at Yuzu as though he'd never seen her before.

'He's coming over right now to borrow some books.' Karin explained. Ichigo just continued staring. Finally he spoke.

'… um… Yuzu? Is that really makeup on your face?'

Yuzu blushed. Now why this had to be the one time her brother was actually perceptive? The doorbell rang. Yuzu sprang up and wanted to run past Ichigo, but he put out his hand to stop her.

'Onii-chan!' she protested.

'I will form my own opinion of this matter, if you will!' and he headed for the door in front of her. He didn't want to be a tyrant, but tonight happened to be the night when there father went to a nearby town for a doctor's conference, so he thought this was his duty now.

What could poor Yuzu do? She stopped on the top of the stairs watching, with a sinking feeling.

Ichigo opened the door. He saw a blonde boy with pale blue eyes in a black leather jacket and beige turtle-neck sweater. He was tall for his age, but still a little shorter than Ichigo. His face was handsome – this accounted for almost all the girls being wild for him. He was this "Prince Charming" type, fairy-tail style. But Ichigo noticed that he had this unsettling look in his eyes witch made him uneasy. And also something else... it felt like he already met him, but couldn't remember where... his face memory was really poor... The newcomer's eyes narrowed as he looked at him.

'Yes? What do you want?' Ichigo asked him quite bluntly.

'You must be Yuzu-chan's brother…! Pleased to meet you!' But he didn't look pleased at all.

'You've got some nerve, calling her like that!' Ichigo thought to himself. One of his eyebrows lifted up questioningly.

'Could you tell her I arrived?' This boy spoke in such a confident and carefree way, that it was really starting to piss him off. Yuzu's voice came from above.

'Hi, Kamo-kun! Come in! I'll bring the books you requested right away.' And she disappeared into her room.

Ichigo let him enter, but didn't make any effort to be hospitable. The boy didn't seam to mind. He walked in confidently, and looked around with interest.

'Nice room!' He complimented, and sat down onto the sofa. He took up a family picture that was in a frame on the small table before him and examined it. Yuzu was back with the books.

'Oh… Kamo-kun? You haven't met my brother jet… this is Ichigo, ad Ichigo, this is Souta Kamo. Here you go.' she handed him the pile of books. ' I think I've got everything you wanted. Do you need something more? '

'Thanks Yuzu-chan, you really obliged me today! You're the most helpful girl I've ever met!'

'Really?' her cheeks were flushed with a deep crimson color. Ichigo sulked in a corner watching them.

'Yes, and so I decided, that in return for your kindness I'm letting you bring me lunch to school for tomorrow!'

Ichigo was sure he must have misheard him. Was this guy for real? But Yuzu's eyes lit up with excitement.

'Wow… I'm really honored! I'll do a grate job with it, I promise!'

Ichigo went to him and dragged him up by his collar. He was so furious that his vision had a reddish tint to it.

'Out! Out of this house right now!'

'Just what's your problem?'

'You've got your books, now out! And Yuzu is not a food delivery service! She will certainly not make you lunch!' He threw him out of the door.

'I'll get you back for this Kurosaki!'

The door banged loudly. Kamo continued staring at it angrily.

'Nobody throws me out!' the blond boy's pail eyes narrowed.. 'Especially not a filthy soul reaper!' his face lit up with a malicious grin before leaving.

Inside Yuzu looked close to tears.

'Onii-chan, that was really mean!' she screwed up her little face into an angry expression. 'You know what? If I'm not a food delivery service, you can make your own dinner for today!' and she stormed up to her room.

Karin's face appeared on the top of the stairs.

'Karin, you were wrong.' Ichigo said fuming. 'This Kamo guy is not a jerk. He' worse. He's a monster!'

I'm not very confident with inventing bad-guys and I really don't know anything about Japanese names... just googled this one... hope it doesn't really mean anything...

Again: PLEASE, please review!
