Chapter 2 The Kendo match
Lantis went to sit down. He was surprised when the dark pink haired girl in front of him turned around.
"Hello my name is Hikaru. Would you like to be friends?" said Hikaru.
Then she held out her hand, Lantis hesitated then said" Sure." and returned the favor. 'Maybe this school won't be so bad' He thought.
At Lunch, Lantis found a cherry blossom tree, climbed it and started to eat his lunch. Staring at the petals of the flowers he started to think of a person with the same colored hair. Hikaru. Somehow she felt familiar, yet he was sure he hadn't met her before.
Then he heard a "May I join you?" and broke out of his dreams.
Surprisingly he heard himself saying "Sure", which was strange since Lantis had always said no to girls before. He had always sat alone, not even with his friends. He watched as Hikaru climbed up the tree and plopped down next to him on the branch.
"Thanks" she said. "Umm. There were some boys chasing me and I needed to get away. Thank You".
Lantis laughed and said "So you are pretty popular with the guys aren't you?"
"Well um. yes, but so are you among the girls. You are lucky to have climbed up a tree so that they couldn't see you." She said.
Hikaru was still taken aback. She hadn't actually though that Lantis had ever smiled never mind laugh before.
Lantis was surprised himself again. 'This girl has a weird effect on me' He just stared at her not sure what to say.
"So are you joining any clubs?" she said breaking the silence. She looked up at her red eyes got lost in his blue ones.
"What clubs are there?" he asked. Hikaru shook her head as he broke the trance she was in.
"Well um. what do you like to do? There are tons of clubs. You have to join one though, or the club teacher will be on your case forever!"
"Well I like to fight, but I pretty much like any sport." replied Lantis.
"Oh. well I am in the Kendo club and you would probably like it. It is pretty easy for me now, though I have beaten every single person who joined, even older boys. I could bring you after school if you like and you could register."
She had a pleading look in her eyes. Lantis smiled. He was going to join anyways.
"Sure, I would like that very much." He said. After school, Hikaru dragged Lantis to the Kendo Room.
"Where do I sign up?" he asked. She brought out a piece of paper and told him to fill it out.
"Oh and by the way, um. I forgot to tell you I am the captain so um." She ran out of words to say. "Well, we have a meeting at 4:00 which is in ten minutes so I can introduce you to the club." Lantis looked up at her from filling out the form and smiled.
"Okay." He replied. Then he finished with the form. Hikaru took it and stuffed it in a file cabinet with a bunch of other forms.
"Would you like to spar, just to pass the time?" Hikaru asked.
"Sure" Lantis replied "Let's see how good you are!" Instead of Kendo swords both of them took up real swords and set up a fighting stance. Hikaru attacked, and Lantis swiftly blocked. Then Lantis did a half crescent moon drill, and Hikaru blocked. Then Lantis completed the other part of the half crescent moon drill, and Hikaru blocked again. Hikaru then came with a barrage of attacks, all of which Lantis blocked. Both of them kept looking for an open spot, but found none. This went on for about 45 minutes more. They were so determined in trying to win that neither of them noticed when the kendo club came in to have their meeting. The entire kendo club was amazed. They have never seen their Kendo captain fight so well before because none of them were anywhere near as good. Also this boy they have never seen is very good. Just as good as Hikaru or even better. Hikaru was the best in the entire school.
Finally Lantis stopped and said "We should continue this later, your club is waiting." He gestured to over where the Kendo club members were waiting.
"This is Lantis" Hikaru said in a serious tone. She turned to face them. "Today was his first school day for all of you who don't already know. He will be joining this club." "We have practice every other day next week and a competition on Thursday. Here are the schedules." She passed out some schedules. "That will be all. See you next week at practice." Hikaru finished. She then left taking Lantis with her.
Lantis smiled and said "You are serious at the club but at every single other time you are a genki, always happy, never running out of energy girl! You are pretty good at fighting, actually."
"Same with you" said Hikaru and she flashed him one of her greatest smiles. Mokona was amazed at how well the plan was working out. But there is more trials coming up ahead, after they regain their memories. Mokona sighed. If only..
