Chapter Nine — Lizard
The third time Sena met Kagome, it was when he and Monta were jogging along towards the store, with club funds in the latter's possession. They had just turned out onto the street when Sena had nearly turned right into a distracted Kagome.
He had let out a screech, nearly falling backward and windmilling his arms. "HIE—Kagome-san! I'm sorry—"
He stopped when he took note of what Kagome was wearing. No doubt Monta was gaping too.
Kagome wasn't wearing the Deimon uniform, no, she was dressed for jogging. She was wearing athletic tights, accentuating toned, strong legs, her vibrant sports visible through her near sheer black shirt.
Blue eyes focused on them, assessing, before her lips upturned in a polite small. "Ah, Sena-kun and Yakyuu-san—or should I say Amefuto-san, now?"
Monta, ears beet red, grinned, "Yeah! I'm the Wide Receiver—call me Monta, hime-chan!"
The expression that crossed Kagome's face was murder and the chibis shrunk back in shock and fear. Kagome relaxed her expression.
"Sorry… I just—I was reminded of a very annoying friend of mine."
And somehow, she had joined them on their errand run.
And she had met Shin too.
She hadn't even batted an eye at the tall, muscular teen—even though Shin had taken note of her, scanning her figure.
Cool.
(Kagome was so cool.)
She hadn't even flinched when the motorcyclists raced by, stealing the club funds—that if ever Hiruma found out they'd let to be stolen, they'd be dead.
Like actually dead.
She didn't even flinch when the accident occurred with a loud BOOM! to indicate the massive explosion.
She shrugged at Sena's awed look. "I'm use to this kind of crazy."
So when Kagome had returned with them, carrying of the bags from the sports shop and flinched at the sight of Habashira Rui—whom Monta had recognized—Sena flinched back, following her example.
The girl's nose was wrinkled in apparent disgust, before she shivered violently—the expression never leaving her face.
"It's a lizard yō—"
A/N:
Eh... we have some hero worship from our favourite, if not one of our favourite, runningback. As for the lizard thing, can you guess what Kagome was going to say?
Hint! Think back to Episode 55 of Inuyasha: The Stone Flower and Shippo's First Love
