The Adventure at C.O.S.P.L.A.Y.

Author's NOTE: Everything is updated.


Part 1: The Beginning

It was the day before the event. As the bell rang, everyone except the teachers and principal tried to rush out, except for six schoolgirls that stayed behind for one thing to talk about. As soon as Miss Tanizaki left the class, Tomo then said "you must be wondering why you're all here, right?"

"Not really", Koyomi said. "Most of the time, you hold us up for no reason."

"Well", Tomo said, "this time this is important news. Tomorrow, I'm going to an anime convention, and it would be nice if all of you came with me."

Everyone began moaning in displeasure except for Sakaki, who was thinking about the same cat that keeps biting her whenever she tries to pet it. The woman wearing glasses began questioning Tomo.

"Why", Yomi said?

"Because it would be great if we all have fun together, and-"

"No", Yomi interrupted before Tomo could finish, "I mean, why bring it up now? Why not at the beginning of the week?"

"Because I wanted to surprise everyone, Yomi!"

"That's not how it works", Yomi said, with outburst! "The element of surprise is something more than what you've just pulled!"

Sakaki, finally out of her dream state, decided to talk. "Yomi", Sakaki said, "do you have something else to do on the weekend?"

"Not really, but Tomo's well known for putting everything off until the very last day of the week of school."

"I think it would be nice to have fun with the friends. I don't have much to do on the weekend."

"Miss Sakaki's right", responded the child prodigy. "It would be more fun to enjoy the day with your friends, rather than being by yourself."

"What do you say", Tomo asked, "do you want in, or not?"

Everyone thought about it for a minute, thinking whether or not they would be able to make it and whether or not they have something else to do. Finally, a voice answered Tomo's call, with a Kansai accent. "I would love to join whatever you're doing, Tomo."

Yomi, even though she was disappointed with Tomo yet again, then answered her. "All right, count me in."

"I'd love to join, Tomo", yelled the prodigy with enthusiasm!

"Me too", Sakaki answered. "What time does it begin?"

"It begins at 9 a.m.", Tomo answered, "and it doesn't finish until 8 p.m. Oh, and everyone has to wear an anime costume of their choice!"

Kagura, the last one to answer, did not give the answer Tomo wanted. "Sorry, Tomo. I might not make it tomorrow because I have swimming practice in the morning."

"That's all right, Kagura. If you make it, then that would be wonderful. But if you don't, then that's fine."

Kagura, after farewelling her fellow classmates, then walked home. The child prodigy then asked, "would it be easier if we meet at the costume store together in one hour?"

"Sure", Tomo replied! "Is it all right with you guys?"

Yomi, Sakaki and Osaka both thought about it, then all agreed.

Later on, at the costume store, precisely one hour, Chiyo, Yomi and Sakaki waited for Tomo and Osaka. Osaka was the first to arrive, panting even when she got here.

"Where's Tomo, Osaka", Yomi said with question?

"She… was going… the other way", Osaka responded, despite trying to breathe for air from all that running. Tomo appeared right behind Yomi, Sakaki and Chiyo. The unexpected clasp on Yomi's shoulder really jumped her. "Gotcha, Yomi", Tomo said with excitement! Yomi then punched Tomo in the jaw, falling face first on the concrete. She was somehow able to get up on her feet, unscathed.

"How many times are you going to do that", Tomo said?

"Well, how many times are you going to get me unexpectedly", Yomi responded?

"I asked you first."

"Come on, people", Chiyo said, trying to break up the feud. "Don't get into a fight. Can we go in?"

For a second, both Tomo and Yomi calmed down. "All right", Yomi responded, "I'll let it go."

The five schoolgirls all entered the door together, albeit a bit squashed.

"Let's not go through a door that small from now on", Yomi said, after going through a tight edge, "agreed?"

Everyone all agreed with Yomi. "Should we make a meeting point", Tomo then asked her friends?

"It would make things more easier", Chiyo responded.

"Why don't we meet at the checkout point when we're done?"

"Okay", everyone responded. From that point, everyone split up, going down different paths in the store.


KitsuneRoyale: So, people, what did you think? After thinking about it from one review, I've decided to rewrite the first two chapters.

See you again!
