Kuroko was often seen hanging around with new friends. The villagers were suspicious of these "new friends" of Kuroko's, but the females in the whole village thought otherwise. Kise was by far the prettiest when he was hanging around Kuroko and he gained so much fame over the past few days that they had lived with Kuroko in his shrine. Kagami had gained some fans, but a lot of the villagers were afraid of him. Aomine didn't care much since most of the time he felt sleepy.
Eventually, all four of them had become a family in just a few short days and the winter had sort of forced them to bond together. Well, anyways, today was market day and Kuroko had really wanted to get something for the winter and decided it would be wise to take all of them with him. When they got to the market place, Kise was having some trouble sticking with Kuroko and the group. Aomine wanted to find somewhere to sleep and ended up staying awake because of the loud noise the girls were making when they hung around Kise.
"Will you girls shut up?" Aomine turned and asked.
The girls squealed louder. They didn't think such a dark, copper skinned boy would be so handsome. They started flocking around the two and Kagami wanted to leave.
"I can't stand their squealing." Kagami looked at Kuroko like he was about to throw up.
Kuroko walked up to the girls, "I'm sorry, but we are here on an errand."
The girls ignored him and when one of them fell from the push against Aomine and Kise, Kuroko saved her from having her fall into the water from the last rain.
"Oh my gosh!" The girl blushed looking at Kuroko, "K-Ku-Kuroko-dono!"
Kuroko was confused and she bowed. Kuroko had his own fans, but he was oblivious to their stares. Kagami gave a loud roar and scared some of the girls away and earned himself more fans. In the end, Kuroko had gotten what he needed, despite many of the store owners not realizing that he was there and found change on their tables. The four returned home and, after much exhaustion, sat in one of the rooms in the shrines and transformed back to their original forms.
"Girls are so tiring its scary," Kagami shivered.
"I think they're sweet, but they sure are scary when you see them come up in hordes." Kise gave a uncomfortable chuckle.
Aomine tucked himself in the corner of the room and fell asleep on Kise's tails. It was just too comfortable for him. Kise stayed with Aomine the whole time, even though they might have hated each other in battle. Kagami went to look for Kuroko and found him feeding the koi fish in the back of his shrine. Kagami never realized that there was a pond full of koi and watched as they swam. He felt the urge to swipe at them out of the pond, but thought otherwise.
"What are you doing here?" Kuroko asked.
Kagami jumped, Kuroko was just in front of him a few seconds ago and was now behind him. He thought he was starting to get used to it by now, but he was still scared when Kuroko did that.
"N-nothing. Just looking for you." Kagami blushed at his foolishness.
They returned to the shrine together, Kuroko walking alongside Kagami in his tiger form. Kise and Aomine were fast asleep in the room, exhausted from the human females hassling and Kuroko and Kagami ended up cooking for their dinner.
