The Word: Side Story: Part 1
The Amazing Quests Of Touji And Kensuke!
Touji reached down and lifted up his backpack, filled with all the things he would find necessary for his trip that could, very easily, take him to new places. He packed food, some money, his journal, as well as a picture of Hikari that he always kept hidden. Touji looked over at his friend Kensuke, who was still busy packing. Unlike Touji, Kensuke was bringing every bit of military equipment he could. Night vision goggles, radar, satellite phone, as well as a book of empty pages, which, he proclaimed he would use to "keep a log of the deadly word". Finally, Kensuke finished packing and hefted his bag up. The two were heading for the front door when Touji had a sudden thought.
"Hey Kensuke.... how are we going to travel around to find out the meaning of that word?"
Kensuke grinned as he pushed his glasses back with his pointer finger, causing light to gleam off his lenses.
"Elementary my dear Touji! We'll simply take.... the OTAKU MOBILE!"
Touji looked to where Kensuke was suddenly pointing and saw a rusted old military van with the word Otaku sprayed onto the side.
"....you can't be serious Ken-man.."
"You bet I am! Let's go!! TO THE OTAKU MOBILE!"
And with that, Kensuke leaped into action, grabbing Touji and pulling him into the Otaku Mobile, while starting up the old van. Touji looked around the interior of the van and noticed one key fact: it was covered with anime stuff. Pictures of cat-girls lined the walls, with giant renderings of mechs in the back.
"Oh wow.... this is just creepy.."
Kensuke whipped out the keys and put them into the ignition, but waited for Touji's attention before continuing. Finally, Touji looked back to his partner.
"HASHIN!"
Kensuke turned the key in the ignition.... only to get a sputtering noise in return. He tried again, only to get a weirder noise out of the car. Kensuke tried again, but this the old van made a noise similar to "Oooooorrrrooooooo". Yet another attempt led to the sound of a sheep bleeting. Kensuke quickly grew frustrated, and jumped out of the van and checked under the hood. He quickly popped it and removed the Aida Family Sheep out from inside. He slammed the hood, leapt back inside, and tried again. This time, the machine sputtered, coughed, and then finally started up.
"YES! Hahahaha! AWAY! We leave today to start our quest in the great OTAKU MOBILE!"
Kensuke put the van into reverse and pulled out of the driveway. As teh van drove off into the distance, Kensuke could be heard shouting, "HERE WE GO!".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the duo drove down the roads, turning here and there, Touji wrote in his journel and looked at his picture of Hikari. He sighed as he thought of how long he might be gone.
'I'll ask her when I get back... yeah.. that's when I'll ask her out.."
His thoughts were cut off though when Kensuke shouted "MUSIC!" and slid one of his anime soundtracks into the cd player. Soon they were driving to the tune of Sobakasu. Touji tried his best to block it out, but the music only made him think more, which led to the next question Touji threw out.
"Where ARE we going?"
"We're heading up as far North of Japan as we can go and if we don't find out anything there, we'll head as far South."
"Christ! That could take all year!"
"Not if we floor it! HAHAHAHA!"
Kensuke slammed down on the gas, determined to find out what that devious word was that left him wounded for a short while. The two continued to travel the roads at top speeds, until they were finally pulled over by a police officer. As the officer was approaching, another revelation hit Touji.
".....Ken-man... are you licensed to drive?"
A silence fell over the duo as Kensuke pushed his glasses back.
".........Nope."
Touji sighed and looked down at his pic of Hikari as the officer asked to see Kensuke's license. He knew this was going to be one long trip.
