Part Three
When Tanukichi awoke, he found himself in the nurse's office on a bed with a damp cloth over his forehead, a bed sheet over his legs and torso. I feel violated. He had only been semi-conscious at the time, but he remembered Riley Tasei had partially undressed him and took pictures with his cell phone of his private parts. That god damn pervert!
Kajou came rushing into the nurse's office. "Tanukichi? Are you okay? I just heard!" Almost immediately the nurse who was in an adjacent room at a deck stormed out. "Excuse me? The patient needs rest!"
"I'm a friend," Kajou said. "I was worried." She gave her name.
Kajou worried about me? I'm touched.
The nurse said to make Kajou's visit short and then went back to the other room leaving them alone. Kajou dragged over a chair next to the bed. "I heard a couple of dog walkers using the park in the back found you unconscious behind the tool shed. What happened?"
Kajou's hair flowed nicely over one shoulder and Tanukichi took a moment to admire it. He liked Kajou, but he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud. And now wasn't the best time to say it.
Tanukichi looked to the other room, then said quietly, "It was Riley. He threatened me and then stunned me with a taser. I think he also took some pictures of me when I was partially unconscious, unclothed. He said if I didn't do what he wanted, he would ruin what little reputation and life I have left. He also gave a personal invite to you-know-who, which I think they should accept."
"He's made it personal," Kajou said with a frown. She refrained from any of her jokes and Tanukichi was thankful for that. It was not a situation for any. "If you do, then I have an issue with him, too."
She moved in closer, and he could smell her perfume.
"I did some investigation on our friend," Kajou said quietly, "and I found out he's a bonfire lunatic."
"A bit of an understatement," Tanukichi said, "but go on…"
"He dabbles in everything we do hope to bring to the public," she said. "He's been suspected of crimes worse than GF, but they were covered up because of his family connections. I found out only by word of mouth. Sometimes using your mouth gets the best the results." She winked.
Tanukichi rolled his eyes. "This is serious, no jokes. I want to teach this guy a lesson he'll never forget and I'm going to need your help, Kajou."
"Should I alert the others?"
He shook his head. "I need a little more time to trust Onigashira after she betrayed us to GF." She eventually came around back to SOX, but Tanukichi still had his reservations. "As for Saotome, she'll be next to useless. She'll want to document the entire thing in pictures, slowing us down. And neither one of them has our combat experience. So, we go it alone. Tomorrow, to Riley's mansion, after dark—we go in."
"Sounds good, I'd prefer we go one-on-one," she said. "It'll make things a lot more enjoyable."
Tanukichi was about to rebuke, when suddenly, Anna burst through the doors of the nurse's office and literally jumped on him, straddling his mid-section. She clutched him tight to her bosom. "Oh, Mr. Okuma, who could've done this to you? I'll hunt them down! Violence towards another student is strictly prohibited, but there's still sanctions the Student Council can evoke!"
"Anna…I…can't…breath…"
Anna let go, and Tanukichi inhaled a deep breath, and a few more. If anyone saw them, they both get in trouble. But Anna didn't get off him, and when the nurse came back, Odoro, Anna's Prefect—who had accompanied her—gave the nurse a hard stare and she immediately left without a word said.
"Oh, Mr. Okuma, you must tell me who did this to you. What happened?" Anna asked seriously. She also poised the question to Kajou.
Tanukichi couldn't tell Anna the truth, he knew her jealousy would reach knew heights. If she knew she and Riley shared the same love interest, she would be shocked but also enter a mindset whereby Riley's body might be found dumped in an alley somewhere.
Tanukichi didn't share either ones' advances. They both came on too strong for his liking. At least Riley didn't "wet" himself every time he came near Tanukichi, as far as Tanukichi knew. He could feel Anna rubbing herself against him, her sexual aptitude brewing to a fever pitch. She moaned. It made him feel both uncomfortable, yet slightly aroused at the same time. He couldn't stop her.
And then it came: the erotic cry, and the sheets—soaked. When Anna released, it burst out of her like a geyser. Her "love nectar" saturated the sheets, dripping droplets of dew to the floor.
Kajou stepped away from the puddle that was forming on the floor next to the bed. "Oh god…"
But this was what SOX was all about: they helped a person by giving them a venue to release all the pent up all their sexual frustration, so it didn't reach the point of explosive impact. Anna was special case. The youth of today needed to be educated on proper sexuality as opposed to chastity, that was SOX's core message. It was healthy for mental health. Okuma's father had a term for it: PSAD (Persistent Sexual Arousal Disorder). And Anna was definitely a candidate for it.
Anna's face flushed with bashfulness. "I'm sorry, but—knowing that you're safe, Mr. Okuma, I couldn't contain myself any longer," she revealed. She got off of him, but continued to drip from her skirt.
Tanukichi thought it wouldn't it be so bad to give in to Anna. Perhaps, over time, she would be able to control her urges. They say, if you do something repeatedly, the novelty soon wears off. Right now, he was a novelty to Anna. You're like an endless reservoir, Anna. Someone could drown in all that.
Anna had asked him what happened. But what would he say? That he had accidentally tripped and rendered himself unconscious behind the tool shed? It was a logical excuse. But he was supposed to be with Riley. How would he explain why Riley wasn't there? But it was better than the alternative.
But before he said anything, the nurse stepped out, and said: "The patient needs rest now. I plan on keeping your friend for an hour for observation, then he can be released. Can your parents pick you up?" she asked Tanukichi.
"He lives alone," Kajou said. "I can be his guardian if he needs a baby sitter," she smirked.
"I don't need a sitter, I'm old enough to take care of myself," Tanukichi protested.
Tanukichi sat up, and suddenly the nurse slipped. She looked down and saw…she gave him an incredulously look. "Young man, if you needed to use the facilities, all you had to do was ask. Look at these sheets now, they're soaked like they've been out during a heavy rain fall. And what's that smell?"
Kajou put a hand up to cover her mouth to stop from laughing out loud, but he didn't work.
Tanukichi sighed as he sat at one of the diner table booths inside the SOX de facto headquarters: Felsersio, a hole-in-wall restaurant pressed between two large brick apartment buildings. The elderly owner of the eatery busied himself with washing dishes, but he knew all about the exploits of SOX and in fact encouraged Tanukichi and Kajou in their curse to educate the ignorant masses, as Kajou would say, against the machinations of the Moral Authorities, remembering the good old days.
Wearing a green track suit after taking a shower, he had to wash his school uniform after Anna's "love nectar" had soaked straight through, he and Kajou discussed strategy against Riley Tasei and how they were going to handle his challenge to SOX.
"So, that's the plan," Tanukichi said, finishing his thoughts. They had been there for over an hour talking, but casually, and without any lewdness.
Kajou switched her phone on with the timer running. At first, she could only use it once a day, but after a hack fix, she was able to use it anytime and multiple times a day, but still for only three minutes at a time. She had already used it once today at school when she spoke to Tanukichi in the hall.
"Basically, if I understand it right, it's an in and out operation. We squeeze in" —she used her finger pressed into a closed fist to demonstrate— "Penetrate the interior, thrust our hammer of justice hard into this creep, and then blow, leaving the remnants of our cause to idle with him."
Tanukichi didn't disagree with the metaphoric interoperation of his plan, but he wished she could've been a lot less graphic about it. "Yes, that's the gist of it," he said.
"He wants you, Tanukichi; he wants you bad," Kajou said with a healthy smile, "and your sweet spot. He's willing to do whatever necessary to get in. He knows about your father, obviously, so he's using that reputation to get to you, using your potential future against you, even though the name Tanukichi is synonymous with ero-terrorism, just like your first name is symbolic of a bear's nut sack."
Tanukichi rolled his eyes. He knew he wasn't the purest guy and his father taught him a lot of raunchy things and dirty jokes, but one of the most important things he remembered from his father was to respect basic freedom. People had a right to recite dirty jokes if they wanted to and people also had to right to date anyone they wanted without asking if it infringed the law. What people didn't have the right to do was to engage in blackmail and subject a person to condemnation.
"I was thinking," Kajou said. "If you give him what he wants, he'd probably leave you alone, maybe even leave the school. You could make it so bad that he'll never want to pursue you again. Most virgins are inexperienced anyway, fantasies never match the real thing. And if Riley wants to make you his bitch, you may as well go all the way." She thrust a fist in the air. "Bow! The first time is often very awkward, subject to miss-firing, or sometimes you never even get there—like what Anna did to you this afternoon."
"Not helping!" he told her. "I get the point, but I hope to prevent any such thing from happening."
"We'll need to bring a couple of things with us for protection, you don't want to get pregnant."
"Guy's can't get pregnant!" Tanukichi shouted, then calmed down. He sighed heavily. "And I don't plan on allowing him to get anywhere near my sweat spot."
"Have you found it yet? With guys, he's usually up the rectum."
"Still not helping!" Then Tanukichi paused. He actually didn't know that. He mused. "Maybe he's hiding something? Why invite us unless he has something to gain? Maybe it's a trap? Maybe he hates SOX? His father is high up there within the MAO."
"You're thinking too much."
"Maybe you're right."
"That's the spirit! A little swordplay, a little game of poke the donkey—ride'em cowboy! Yee-ha!" Tanukichi was about to retort, when she continued, after clearing her throat. "He's a little trivia. Do you know how large a donkey's member is?"
"Any why would I want to know that?"
Kajou extended her hands out wide. "It can grow to nine centimetres in thickness and eighteen inches in length, and it can even get bigger, and fire out as fast as bullet, at sonic speed. So, if you ever encounter a donkey, don't ever let him mount you, you'd probably die when he fires his load."
Tanukichi made a disgusting face. "W-Why would you even tell me that?"
Kajou shrugged. "Thought it was an interesting fact," she said with a thin smile.
"Thanks for the info, but I'm not into beastiality," Tanukichi said. "And I don't plan on Riley mounting me either. I've already had a taser electrify me. It wasn't fun. So, I don't plan on engaging in any other comparative exercise like that."
"Try a vibrator, it's way better. We have more in stock now, male and female versions. We even have a few orders—from online shoppers."
"We have a store now?" Tanukichi shook his head and sighed.
He liked her, but with some of the stuff she said his respect varied. "This is a little off topic and it's about Saotome's drawings. Some of them are actually pretty good and they're certainly very popular. They're unflattening especially towards me, she needs another muse, but I was thinking about what she was saying about charging for certain high quality drawings. We can start to finance SOX. I need a new garter belt anyway. It's getting worn around the edges and my panties are starting to become transparent whenever I sweat. What I wear isn't even mine anyway, I found them."
"Good idea," Kajou said. "Besides, neither us can let our disguises get drab. We need to keep them in pristine condition, and also our bodies, for which, I have to admit, you have a hell of nice body with some healthy muscle. You really pull off that disguise—'Tit Boy'."
"Hey, I told you never to call me that. It was a one time thing when we were fighting Gathered Fabric and Ichinose Takuma in the Head Master's Office. After everything we threw at him, his nipples were his Achille's heel when I…" He cleared his throat. "But I was thinking of a call name. You have Blue Snow, and if you keep calling me by my real name all the time, people will find out who I am."
"How about 'Zen', after your father?" the owner of the eatery spoke up. He was a gentle soul that could have been Tanukichi's grandfather if he knew him.
"That's awesome! Thank you! For now on, I'll be known as Zen."
Kajou mused. "Yup, it could work: Zen, the Tit Boy Wonder, or T. Boy Zen, or the Big Happy Zen?"
"Zen, just plain Zen," Tanukichi said frustrated. "You always have to make things dirty. Please don't mock my father's name. At first, I was ashamed of him when I was socially ostracized, but after recent events, I'm proud to be his son—fighting for freedom and educating the masses."
Kajou nodded. "Okay, I'm sorry. It's a major change, I'll have to get used to it."
Tanukichi shrugged. "Who knows, maybe it won't stick?" But before Kajou could say something lewd about something else sticking—and he knew exactly what she was going to say—he put up a hand and stopped her.
She then folded her phone closed, stopping timer.
Tanukichi then said, "Time to get my Zen on!"
