My gut told me that this chick was serious and I stood up, my body tensing in preparation for a fight; I glared at her.
She smirked, "You asked for it." She then charged at me, her fist aiming for my face. I easily blocked and countered, trying to grab hold of her wrist to force her to her knees; she managed to dodge.
We fought—if you could even call it that—she was on full force offense, giving it everything she got—punching, kicking, jabbing—while I was mainly on defense, I didn't want to hurt the girl—even though it was extremely tempting—but I certainly wanted her to know not to mess with me. We both managed to hit the other a few times—nothing serious, but enough to where it was going to leave a bruise or two—and it went on like that for a while. A few times, I caught Shigure giving us worried looks—he had Kyo, who was still unconscious, with him—and I tried my best not to destroy anything, but Kagura was not so careful.
Kagura and I were both panting by the time Kyo finally managed to wake up.
He put a hand up to his head, "What happened?" he mumbled as he looked around disoriented.
"Kyo Kyo!" Kagura exclaimed happily, completely forgetting about our fight. She ran to him, her arms outstretched, and I looked on confused.
Kyo's eyes went wide with fear as he tried to ran, but she was too fast and managed to wrap her arms around his leg. He shook her off and continued running with her after him and me after her. They ran through the door like it was nothing but paper—which it pretty much was—and they were headed to the woods.
As they ran, they didn't notice the delivery guy walking toward the house, and he didn't notice them because he had his head down looking at the package in his hands.
"Watch out!" I exclaimed, picking up speed. Too late.
Kyo shouldered past the guy, causing him to turn roughly, and he kept on running deep into the woods, but Kagura ran into the guy square in the chest, a pink cloud enveloping them. I quickly ran into the cloud, hoping with all the smoke he didn't see Kagura change into one of the Zodiac animals. I saw the figure of the guy, coughing and choking on the rapidly fading cloud of smoke, and then I saw a small animal shaped figure on the ground next to him. I picked up the animal and fell to my knees; the cloud of smoke disappearing.
"Oh my gosh!" I exclaimed, acting as if I was the one who bumped into him, "I'm so sorry! Are you alright?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine," a voice said. As the last of the smoke disappeared, a guy about my age with shaggy black hair and deep blue eyes looked up at me. I felt my cheeks turn pink, Holy crap this guy is hot! "Uh, are you okay?" he asked slowly, I notice his cheeks colored as well.
I nodded, "I'm-I'm so sorry for running into you like that." I mumbled, "I was just trying to get my pet…" I glanced down at the animal in my hands, a small and very ticked off brown boar, "…my pet boar." I held up Kagura so he could see.
He looked at Kagura and gave a small smile, "What's it's name?" he asked as he stood up. He held out a hand for me.
I took his hand and he helped me up, "Her name's, uh, Erza."
Kagura gave a snort, telling me she didn't like the name I thought of on the spot.
"That's a nice name." he smiled. I then noticed that we still grasped each other's hands, and the color in my cheeks deepened. He seemed to notice our hands as well for then he introduced himself, "I'm Hei." He smiled, the color in his cheeks growing darker.
"Jayme." I mumbled sheepishly shaking his hand.
His cheeks went another shade darker, "What a beautiful name." his eyes then went wide a little as he bent down to pick up the package he was holding, "This is for you then. It came all the way from America." He was about to hand me the package when he noticed that I was still holding Kagura. "I can hold Erza for you while you put the package inside." He smiled reaching for Kagura.
I smiled nervously, "No that's okay, Erza isn't very friendly. She's kind of a biter." I blocked his hand with my left and as I did, Kagura bit me, almost as if to give an example. I grit my teeth at the pain that shot up my arm, "See?" I strained. "I'm still trying to teach her some manners." I tried pulling my hand away from her mouth, but every time I would, she would clamp down harder, so I stopped before more damage could be done.
"Here, let me take that for you." Shigure smiled cheerily as he came out of nowhere to swipe the package away from Hei. He began walking toward the house; "Jayme, I think you should come inside now, the others'll be here shortly and you don't wanna miss dinner!" he called over his shoulder.
"I'm sorry, but I have to go." I mumbled sheepishly, trying not to let the pain be heard in my voice. Shigure managed to take the stupid package and not this insane chick?!
"That's okay, I still got deliveries to make." He chuckled. He looked at me, his deep blue eyes twinkling and his cheeks flooding with color. "I'll see you later, I guess."
I nodded, "See you later." I then turned around and headed inside.
Shigure slid the door closed, even though it didn't do much good for there was a large hole in it where Kyo and Kagura ran through.
"That was a close one." He sighed as he placed the package on the couch. "Kagura let go of Jayme."
Kagura bit down harder, making me wince.
"Kagura," Shigure warned, "What would Kyo think?"
I felt Kagura sigh as she spit out my hand, blood dripping all over my clothes.
"Serves her right for messing with my Kyo." She huffed as she jumped out of my hand and onto the floor.
Shigure gave a tired sigh as he walked into the kitchen, "After I call Hatori, you two and I are going to have a nice little chat."
Author's Notes: Okay...so I just finished my first week of college and...I think I'm going to be alright ^_^' I met some new people that seem like good characters and I like most of my professors (but I have to get used to calling them 'professor' and not 'Mr./Mrs.') but I'm SO tired you have no idea -.- During the summer, I used to wake up around noonish and go to sleep like around 1 AM or 2 AM. Now, I have to wake up at 5 AM because I have class at 7AM and my last class ends around 6PM. I'm going to have such a difficult time getting used to my new and very EARLY schedule, but I promise to update as regularly as I possibly can! I actually tried updating earlier, like around 1PM, but for some reason FanFiction would NOT load...I don't know why either. So I apologize for a late update, but at least I updated on Friday ^_^"
Kyo: *bound and gagged* Mfmfffmffmmmffmf!
Author: Sorry Kyo, but I'm very sleep deprived at the moment and your yelling earlier about you knowing something bad was going to happen was giving me a headache -.- (he was mad at me for introducing Hei, another rival in love)
