TITLE: EXTRA-ORDINARY LOVE QUADRANGLE
( ayami – sakuragi – haruko – rukawa - ayami )
PURPOSE OF WRITING: Honestly, I can't think of any purpose…
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Slamdunk or any of its characters…don't sue me…^_^
* Author's notes:
[my comments] " their lines"
(the situation) no "" or italicized means their thoughts
SPECIAL THANKS TO:
~ Tensaispira: Thank you again for reviewing. Actually, I saw the word bakemono from another fanfic somewhere out there and I thought, maybe I could use it. Yeah…Ayami's such a war-freak. Don't worry…she'll eventually evolve. Just wait. For the meantime, just hang in there…more violence to come…^_^ For example, THIS CHAPTER!!!!
~ Akira: Thank you for reviewing! Sorry for everything…Ayami's age and my grammar…I'm not really good, I mean I SUCK, at English. I can read but I can't express very well. Ayami's tall (at least for me) and she can jump high (I don't know why). That explains why she was able to reach Rukawa's neck. Hmmm…please forgive Ayami. I must admit she's a little bit…deranged herself, though she wouldn't admit it ~_^. Just like what I've said to Tensaispira, just hang in there…more violence to come…^_^ For example, THIS CHAPTER!!!!
~ Kou Rukawa: Thank you for reviewing. BTW, your stories were great. ASTIG PARE! (LOL!) ^_^
* Now on with my story, shall we… before their game with Kainan. Why? No reason…
CHAPTER 4: Ready… Fight!
~~~~~ RRRRRRIIIIIINNNNGGGGGG!! ~~~~~
HARUKO, SAKURAGI, SAKURAGI GUNDAN & EVERYONE ELSE
"OH NO!!! WE BETTER HURRY OR WE'LL BE LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (and with that, everyone vanished……)
AYAMI
Wow…they're all gone. Oh. My. God.
"AHHH!!! I still don't know where my room is!!! I'm gonna be soo dead!"
I ran and ran like a mentally deranged student along the corridors till finally, I found Class 1-10. The sensei apparently had started calling out the names of his students moments ago because, he was already screaming my name at the top of his voice when I arrived.
" SAKIMOTO AYAMI! SAKIMOTO AYAMI! SAKIMOTO AYAMI! SAKIMO -- !"
" HAI!!!! (pant! pant!) PRESENT!!!! (pant! pant!) GOMEN NASAI SENSEI!!! (pant! pant!) I looked all over the school for this class demo ---"
Sensei never made me finish my sentence. Instead, he opted to embarrass me in front of the whole class.
How sweet of him…
"Finally! Planning for a great start for the school year, aren't we? You did a nice job, I should say. Class, let's all clap for her shall we?"
Then, the whole class clapped like idiots. Some boys were smiling & blushing and some were staring at me [mainly because they found her beautiful]. And the girls, they have the most amazing expression on their faces. Some of them eyed me full of loath and envy and some didn't even bother looking at me like I don't exist.
What a great set of classmates… I bet we'll have a blast with each other's company.
" Sakimoto-san, if you're done analyzing the whole class, will you kindly take your sit? You're distracting the whole class."
I hate the guts of this guy!
I looked around and found that the only vacant seat that I think is safe, considering the very warm welcome these morons a.k.a my classmates gave me, was a seat in front of a sleeping classmate.
Great…just great!
RUKAWA
At last, sensei decided to shut his mouth. I finally can get some sleep…
Isn't it obvious that no one's answering? Why did he have to repeat her/his [he doesn't know yet that HER name is Ayami remember?] name over and over again?
Che! Baka sensei.
AYAMI…
I think I heard that before. I just can't remember where…
Why am I thinking? I'm supposed to be sleeping, right?
Uhrm…my throat still hurts. That girl sure has a powerful hand…
HOHUM…
So, our new classmate's a girl. She sounds tired… What did she do? Ran a marathon?
Che! That's what you get for not coming to school early. Unlike me… [Yeah…unlike you…whatever!]
HOHUM…
Baka sensei's making us clap because she was late…baka sensei.
HOHUM…
I hope she doesn't become one of those senseless girls.
I could feel movement in front of me. She chose THAT seat. I could already see the signs that she'll eventually end up being like one of them and their first action was always getting close to me as possible.
I should have gone to an all-boys school. That way no girl will bother me and that would be so…nice.
HOHUM…
Time's running. Better go to dreamland now……
" ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!" (drool, drool, and more drool)
AYAMI
Arrrgghhh! I can't concentrate on our lesson…
Why? Let me tell you my reasons:
1. Sensei is really annoying so I can't stand looking at him.
2. The lesson was really hard to understand because people around me are either talking, sleeping, reading, singing, eating… you know, doing anything and everything under the sun, except studying.
3. The subject is really boring…MATH! [Yeah…I know how you feel]
4. Guys were constantly looking and staring at me. After a few seconds, I'll receive notes from them asking me if I was available. Perverts…
5. Girls were constantly looking and staring at me. After a few seconds, I'll receive notes from them asking me to leave their precious Rukawa alone or go to hell or just change classes or saying I'm really ugly or other threats. Weird…
6. Bakemono might be lurking somewhere here so I must never let my guard down.
7. The one sitting at my back is snoring very loudly.
8. I was thinking of ways on how to get back at that Bakemono.
9. I was thinking how nice Sakuragi-kun & Haruko-chan was for making me their friend.
10. I was thinking of ways to stay awake and some more things to add to this list.
Hmmm…this guy behind me is really annoying. If he doesn't stop…HOHUM……I think I might fall asleep too.
I can't do that! Tomorrow maybe, but not now. It's my first day… [Nice reasoning Ayami…LOL!].
I think I should wake him up… [Uh-oh! Not a good idea……]
" Psst! Will you please lower it down?" No response. " Hello? You can sleep for the entire class but please, stop snoring!"
" ZZZZZZZZZZ…..!" (MAJOR DROOL ALERT!)
What the…there's a whole sea of drool on his table! Hmm…this guy looks familiar.
Iie…it can't be him!
" Excuse me!!! Could you lower it down?"
Some of my classmates were already looking at our direction. I began blushing. I really hate it when people look at
me.
"HEY! Will you wake up?!"
Still no response and drool still came running out of his mouth. I tried to shake him…no use. I tried to tickle him…still no use. I tried to pinch him, then slightly punched him, then kicked him…all in vain.
What is he? A rock or something?! Maybe he's dead? Hmm…not possible…
I can still hear him snore as if nothing's happening around him and drool is still flowing freely on his table. Gross! His face really looks familiar though…
I don't want to disturb his peaceful slumber but I was really getting irritated.
Hah! Whoever he is, this gotta stop now! I want to have my education, thank you very much!
So, I breathe in with all my might, positioned myself just above his ear, then started wriggling him.
" OI! WILL YOU WAKE UP?! I'VE BEEN TELLING YOU THAT FOR A MILLION TIMES! ARE YOU DEAF? OR HOW ABOUT DEAD? 'CAUSE IF YOU'RE NOT EITHER, YOU'LL BE DEAF WHEN YOU WAKE UP 'CAUSE I'LL NEVER STOP SCREAMING UNTIL I SEE ANY MOVEMENT FROM YOU AND WHEN YOU DO WAKE UP, YOU'LL BE DEAD 'CAUSE I'M GONNA KILL YOU FOR MAKING ME YELL AT YOU SO MUCH!!! DIDN'T YOU HEAR ANYTHING I SAID? HELLO???" (pant! pant! pant! pant! )
I think I need more air (breathes in more air)
One more time…
" OOOOOOOOOOIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!! WAKE UP YOU LAZY FREAK! CAN'T YOU ---"
I can't continue what I would like to tell that sleeping, dead or deaf bastard, because a thousand hands suddenly started grabbing & pulling me away…
RUKAWA
I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE
SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEP---
What the…? The girl in front is talking to me…
So what? I don't care.
I LOVE SLEEPING. That someone's talking to me again.
I LOVE SLEEPING. Her voice's getting louder.
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's talking again. Can't she take a hint that I don't want to wake up?
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's shaking me.
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's tickling me.
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's pinching me.
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's punching me.
I LOVE SLEEPING. She's kicking me.
I LOVE SLEEPING. Can't she see I'm having a peaceful sleep here?
I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEPING. I LOVE
SLEEPING. I LOVE SLEEP----
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MY EARDRUMS ARE BEING SHATTERED! I'M GETTING REALLY DIZZY WITH ALL HER SHAKING! SOMEBODY STOP HER! (after a good minute of screaming)
SHE ACTUALLY DECIDED TO STOP?!?!?
Let me get my hands on you…you…
AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! SHE'S SCREAMING AGAIN! AAHHHHHHHHH---?
What's happening?! Where did that living megaphone go?! Why are there girly things all over the room? Why are those guys all huddled in one corner, drooling? What is THAT girl doing over there?
HUH?!
AYAMI
Help! I'm being murdered by my classmates.
And to think I was doing them a favor?!
And what does that bakemono got to do with this?!
Wait…
" Bakemono?!"
He's actually here…matte! Don't tell me he was the one…
Arggghh!!! I should have known! He's the only one whose sole purpose in life is sleeping!!
I'll make you pay for…
I didn't get to start my revenge because girls started attacking me.
" Hey! Stop pulling my hair and pull your own, you moron!!!"
" Oi! That's my hand you're biting! Are you hungry or just plain blind and stupid???"
" Oi!!! Books are meant for reading, not for killing, dumbass!!!!!"
" Ouch! Don't scratch me with your overly long and disgustingly painted with the color neon pink nails, witch!!!! Where's your broomstick by the way???"
AARGGHHH!!! I can't take this anymore! Wait till I get my hands on you –
" Don't put your finger on my nose!!! I can pick on my own nose so pick on yours, dimwit!"
" Stop! That's my leg you're pulling!!!"
" Oi! Give me back my shoe!!! Don't you know where your own shoe is???"
" Ow! For the love of God, get your large ass out of my face!!!! I can't see anything! I can't breathe! I can't---"
Uh-oh…what's this they stuck on my mouth?! Wait…
" Ugh! Who among you imbeciles stuck a sock on my mouth?!"
" HELP! LET ME OUT OF HERE… I STILL WANT TO LIVE! I STILL HAVE MANY DREAMS! I WANT TO -- "
Who slapped my mouth??? WHO????
I can't speak!!! Why is this happening to me???
WHY???????
RUKAWA
"………………………………………" Girls sure are strange creatures…remind me never to fight with them again.
ALL GUYS IN THE CLASS
"WWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!" [What a bunch of perverts!]
SENSEI
" STOP THIS NONSENSE YOU BAKAS! GO BACK TO YOUR SEATS!! SAKIMOTO and RUKAWA…STAY BEHIND AFTER CLASS AND GO TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE! UNDERSTAND???"
At the sound of my voice, they actually stopped whatever they were doing and returned to their seats.
Wow…this was the first time I ever got their attention.
Being a sensei is really hard. First, they don't listen to anything you say. If they fail, you're the one who's at fault. Then they start doing things not related to the subject in your class.
I understand that they're bored with my subject like any normal. But, I didn't know they were THIS bored!
At one moment, I was talking to them [talking the board actually…^_^], then this new girl, Sakimoto, suddenly stands up then screams at Rukawa.
Then girls started plunging at her and pulling her away because she's hurting THEIR Rukawa. Meanwhile, Rukawa and the other boys just stared at the bunch of girls fighting for their lives.
I wonder if this place was really a school…for all I know this might be a prison cell or a mental hospital disguised as a school.
Life just sucks!
AYAMI
Kami-sama…arigatou for letting me live!!!
Wow…the place looks like it was from another dimension and had been passed by thousands of tornadoes.
Things, mostly girl stuff, were strewn everywhere and students look like they've been in a war. Almost all of us girls have scratches on our faces and some of the things on our uniform are missing. And our hair…talk about having a bad hair day! The only persons who look decent enough are the guys.
Then, I remembered something. I looked at the person behind me. He was staring at me again. It's really HIM.
Raven hair, pail-skinned, cobalt & icy blue eyes, same expressionless face…
Yup! It's definitely him.
The BAKEMONO himself. The person who makes my life here a living hell. KAEDE RUKAWA.
I'm in the same class as him. Yippee…forgive me for not leaping with joy.
Because of his stupid actions, I've got to go to the principal's office on my first day!
I HATE HIM!!!!! [You've said that a million times…and it's really pretty obvious.]
GAH! This is not happening…after all what I've been through…HE'S SLEEPING AGAIN?!
Kami-sama…do you hate me so much?
Okaa-san, are you there? Please save me from this hell-on-earth place with the devil himself sitting behind me! [hehe…….poor you! @_@]
RUKAWA
Hmmm…the place looks like it was from another dimension and had been passed by thousands of tornadoes.
Things, mostly girl stuff, were strewn everywhere and students look like they've been in a war. Almost all the girls have scratches on their faces and some of the things on their uniform are missing. And their hair…talk about having a bad hair day! The only persons who look decent enough were us guys.
Then, I remembered something. I looked at the person sitting in front of me. She was staring at me with that fierce look of hers again. It's really HER. Long black hair, pale-skinned, deep sea-blue eyes, an overly large mouth that she never shuts up.
Yup! It's definitely her.
The DO'AHOU ONONOKO herself. The descendant of Xena. SAKIMOTO AYAMI.
I'm in the same class as hers. Yey. Forgive me for not leaping with joy.
Because of her stupid antics, I've got to go to the principal's office instead of spending the day at the rooftop sleeping.
At least I got to know her name…
What's weird though is I don't exactly hate her. I'm just furiously mad at her to the point I want to hang her upside down and slit her throat but I don't hate her [ok…~_^'].
I'm losing my mind. Her shouting and shaking at me might have affected the sanity of my brain…
I better go to the local hospital later…
Might as well just sleep again…
" ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!" (drool again)
[Ever wondered why he never runs out of drool?]
~ After Math class ~
SENSEI
" Sakimoto and Rukawa…if you would please follow me."
AYAMI & RUKAWA
" Hai…"
As if we have any other choice…baka sensei!
AYAMI
We were led into a room, which was unbelievably very quiet. Sensei asked the both of us to just sit and relax for a moment while he calls and explain everything to the principal. Meaning, I was left there all alone with the Bakemono.
Great! Nice time to be alone with him.
I checked my pocket if I have anything in there in case he decides to kill me right then and there.
Good thing I have my handy-dandy and ever dependable pen. I could always poke him in the eye with this.
So I just stared at him while waiting for the principal…never letting my guard down.
RUKAWA
Why is she staring at me as if I'm going to attack her while waiting for the principal?
I couldn't do that…not here anyway. It must be done in a place no one knows or where only few people pass by…
That way, no one would suspect me.
Then, she began fumbling inside her pocket for something. A pen perhaps.
What's she going to do with that? Poke me in the eye? Yeah right…as if that would work.
Ah! Finally…principal's here. She could stop staring at me right now…
AYAMI
Ah! Finally…principal's here.
I could stop staring at him right now…I'm saved!
PRINCIPAL
" BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH…BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH…BLAH, BLAH…"
AYAMI
BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING…BORING
RUKAWA
" ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!" (trying his very best not to drool since it's the principal talking to him but…DROOL!)
~ After 5 minutes of 'boring' talk about what happened ~
PRINCIPAL
"…and so, I'll let go the both of you this time. But, if I ever hear any news that the two of you are fighting again, I'll suspend you without thinking twice…understand? Sakimoto-san, Rukawa-kun?"
AYAMI
"Hai…"
Whew! I thought I'll be suspended. ARE? Bakemono is sleeping again.
He looks cute when he's sleeping…HUH? I actually called him cute again?! Must be because I'm already hungry…
I nudged him hard on the ribs so he'll wake up. Thank God he did or I don't know what I'll do to him. He gave me this 'ice-cold' look then I motioned him to say something to the principal. He just stared at me blankly.
Does this guy have any brain inside that thick and big head of his?
I mouthed to him to say 'yes' until my jaw started to hurt. He still didn't get it because he's still half asleep. I stepped on his foot really hard and that woke him up. I mouthed again to him to say yes and finally, he understood. After that, the principal let us go.
But before going out, I did something wacky…something very unlikely of me…probably the weirdest thing I'll ever do in my whole stay here at Shohoku
I said…I ACTUALLY said…
RUKAWA
" Gomen nasai Bakemono…"
What?
I looked at do'ahou ononoko and saw that she was fidgeting with her fingers while looking down at her shoes.
Is this some kind of trap? She might be devising a plan to get back at me.
But I know I'm wrong. Just remove the 'bakemono' part, she actually looked and sounded…sincere. But being the cold person I was, I didn't say anything.
" Gomen ne…? It's my fault why we're sent here. I shouldn't have bothered you. I should have just minded my own business. That way, I wouldn't have yelled so much then I wouldn't have tried killing you then those girls wouldn't have got mad at me then they wouldn't have started fighting with me then baka sensei wouldn't have got mad at the both of us then --"
I stopped her. I don't know why but I just can't take anymore blaming of herself. Anyway, it's my fault. If I weren't sleeping then she wouldn't have bothered waking me up which led to a bunch of disasters.
" It's ok…"
I saw her face lighten up then she blushed again though I don't know why. Then she bid goodbye and opened the door…
AYAMI
Wow! Bakemono actually spoke to me and accepted my apology…weird.
I don't know why I did it in the first place. Probably because I feel a little bit guilty and I hate it when I feel that particular feeling because it makes me uneasy. And the weirdest part was I blushed again. Why I always blush when he's around is still a mystery to me.
Anyway, once outside the hall, I found Haruko-chan, her friends, Sakuragi-kun, & his friends. They were asking me what happened and I told them everything. Then, he called Rukawa 'baka kitsune' and Rukawa called him 'do'ahou'.
Of course, Sakuragi-kun got mad and got ready to punch him but Haruko-chan and Sakuragi's friends stopped him. Rukawa, on the other hand, was immediately surrounded by girls who were throwing dagger looks at me and to the others while 'comforting' THEIR Rukawa. Then, suddenly, Bakemono looked at me and then left.
I don't know, but the look he gave seemed somewhat different. The weirdest thing was, for the first time, I realized how lonely he was.
And I actually felt sad for him.
RUKAWA
I really wanted to talk to her. Maybe not 'talk' but more like…fight and exchange banters with her. But, once we're outside, she immediately went to the do'ahou and his group while I was bombarded with girls.
Hmmm…I didn't even know they knew each other. Small world huh?
That's when I remembered the earlier incident involving those two.
So…they became friends because they have one thing in common: THEY BOTH HATE ME.
I saw how close they were…as if they've known each other for a long time already. The do'ahou and Ayami were like…a couple.
Do'ahou and do'ahou ononoko living happily together…what a sight to see!
Then Sakuragi suddenly wanted to fight with me. Good thing his friends and Gori's sister stopped him or I would have accepted his offer. I gave Ayami one glance and I noticed that her eyes had a different emotion in them.
I REALLY wanted to say something to her but I don't know what to say so I just left. I still have a lot of time and after all, we're classmates. I could always annoy her during class.
But, to tell you the truth, I've never felt lonelier in my life.
HUH? I should get some more sleep.
I think my brain's already malfunctioning…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
~_^ MY! MY
Hmmm… was the story good or boring? Does this chapter make any sense? Does this chapter remind you of another story you've already read? When will they finally realize that they're meant for each other? What about Sakuragi?
What about Haruko? What about the other characters? When will they make their first appearnce? Why is it that I've already had three chapters for the same day? Is my next chapter happening on the same day too? Why, oh, why am I asking you these when I don't even answer them? Am I just making a fool of you and myself?
The answer is……
Love it? Hate it? Let me know!
Review pls! Ja! ^_^
