Please, R and R!!! Don't go much to say now. Oh yea, who's like my D-ko? I'm sorry I didn't describe him better. If you want I'll go back and redo it. Hehehe. BTW Uhh this is one of my first fics. I'm still a newbie writer. Maybe with lots of reviews I'll get better. I couldn't believe it; one of my friends told me that a story on ff.net had over 2,000 reviews!! I was like O.O just put a fork in me I'm done. –cries- I want 2,000 reviews!!! So gimme reviews or I'll put you in my stories and then kill you off. BWAHAHHAHAHA BWAHAHAHA! Ruka and Juri: -stares at ficcy-mistress like she's gone insane; which she has- O.o Tristan: -looks innocent and sweet- whoopsies... On to the ficcy! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Juri's first glimpse of the Fencing Hall made her hold her breath in awe. It was huge!! The Fencing room could easily hold over 200 people! There were two stories to the building. The top story was mainly for onlookers who were interested in watching the duels of the fencers. A gigantic locker room branched out from the main room, complete with over five rows of bright, shiny, red lockers. Branching out from that, were two showering rooms, divided between the sexes.
Juri's new locker was all the way at the end of the last row. It looked fairly damaged and beat up, as if many new rookies had owned this locker in their own times. Juri grabbed her fencing uniform and hastily put it on. It consisted of a white vest, light blue arm and leggings and white stockings. She headed out to the main room, which was already starting to get packed with young fencers ready to challenge their captain and peers.
Juri stood in line, waiting to fight against the Captain of the Fencing Club. She still didn't know his name, but she already felt respect start to bloom in her chest. It was beautiful to watch him. The way he moved, his rhythm, his style, it was all just captivating. He was amazing! Juri hoped that someday she could learn to be like him. To be able to fence like that...by the time she was next up in line he had already defeated five other people ahead of her. Her heart pounded in nervous anticipation.
"Next!" He called, oddly enough the voice sounded almost familiar. Juri thought nothing of it as she stepped forward, slipping on her mesh wire mask. She came forward onto the mat, getting into her stance. Her opponent did the same. Juri would have thought that after five opponents in a row the captain would be tired, but he hadn't even broken into a sweat.
Her opponent suddenly plunged forward, trying to hit her with his saber. Juri feigned to the right and instantly struck out, trying to catch him off guard. But he was too smart for that old trick. There was a loud screech as cold, hard metal smashed together. Through her opponent's mask, Juri could have sworn she thought she saw him smile. The match suddenly tensed up as her opponent began to get more serious. He had deemed her worthy of actual effort. Juri smiled at the challenge. She thought it'd be best to end the match quickly, so she lunged forward with what she was sure would be the winning blow. But Juri's opponent lashed out with his foil faster then Juri could even blink, ending the match before Juri's mind could ever recognize what that meant.
Juri pulled off her mask not knowing what to think. She had lost. That was... surprising, kind of. Juri had never lost a fencing match. Over at her last school she had been reigning champion. But over here... she was just a rookie.
"That was great, Juri." The way he said her name... reminded her of someone else. Someone she had been thinking about a lot lately. Her opponent slowly reached up and pulled off his mask...revealing a certain blue- haired bishounen.
"Ruka! I mean Tsuchiya!" Juri was just plain shocked. Not only was he on the Student Council, popular with the ladies, and amazingly hot, now he was also fencer-extraordinaire.
"Tsuchiya? Of course you can call me Ruka, Juri. You're a excellent fencer, probably one of the best here." He grinned at her and Juri began to get lost in those eyes. Juri shook herself out of it wondering what she was doing. She blushed a little at the compliment, before Ruka grabbed her arm and pulled her aside. She looked at him questioningly, wondering what he wanted to talk to her about.
"You're an excellent fencer, Juri. I'd love to teach more about what I know. That is, if you're interested." Juri couldn't believe it. He was asking her, a pathetic rookie, if she wanted to learn to fence like him. She could only imagine being that beautiful and graceful. She could never do that... But she was willing to try.
"I'd love to," she said slowly, smiling up at him. He smiled happily down at her, and the moment seemed to freeze, a moment she would remember forever.
*__*__*__*__*
"Excellent Juri!! That's perfect!" Ruka called out as he watched Juri practice. He was teaching her how to feign to the left and then lunge forward, hitting her opponent square in the chest. So far, all the other attempts had been fails, but Juri was slowly starting to get the hang of it. Juri yawned sleepily, her eyes starting to close.
"I'm tired Ruka!! Can't I go home yet?? It's late!!" it was already almost ten o'clock at night and Juri had been here since at least five. Ruka had been pushing her hard lately, making her work late nights. She hardly got more than a few hours of sleep a night, and was sometimes found sleeping in class. She couldn't keep this up much longer. Anymore late nights and she was going to fail soon.
"Alright, alright," Ruka gave it looking at the sleepy Juri. Juri lumbered toward the locker rooms, trying to keep her eyes open. She slipped out of her fencing uniform as quickly as possible before hurrying out of the fencing room and towards her home. She didn't even bother to say goodnight to Ruka.
Ruka sat down slowly on a bench on the side of the fencing room. He hadn't even noticed how hard he'd been working Juri. Maybe he should give her a break... He sat looking around the room, envisioning Juri practicing. Her scent seemed to linger on the air. Ruka had long ago accepted that Juri hardly ever left his mind. He couldn't fight it, so why try?
Ruka changed and left as well, still thinking of Juri. Tomorrow he'd have to do something special for her to make up for all the late nights. He had the perfect idea...
*__*__*__*__*
"Where are we going Ruka?" Juri asked following Ruka walk through Ohtori. She had been just a little suspicious when Ruka said there was no practice today. Ruka was strict about practicing every day or she'd lose her edge. He wasn't acting like her slave driver today. Something was up. "Come on, you can tell me!"
"Shush, we're almost there." Juri looked around... They were reaching the boundaries of the school limits. She'd never been this far away from the main section of the school. What did Ruka have to show her that was all the way over here? Ruka's hands suddenly covered Juri's eyes making everything go dark.
"Step forward a little. A little more... Okay... Ready..." instantly the light sprang back in Juri's eyes are Ruka removed his hands. Juri gazed about herself in wonder at the sight before her. They were by a gigantic ocean... Above them were several slanting pillars, giving an illusion of a shelter over their heads. It was an excellent decoration, making the scene look picturesque. And in the middle was a little bench with room for two.
Juri turned to Ruka; her eyes alight with the wonder of the scene before her. It was a priceless moment. She felt so much closer to Ruka. It almost scared her... No! They were just friends. He was just showing her a place he liked.
"Do you like it? I've been coming here a while, as far as I know I'm the only person who knows about this place. Well now you too..." He smiled down at her and Juri's heart skipped a beat. She sat down on the bench next to Ruka, staring at the setting sun. As the sun sank over the horizon, Juri wondered how different life would be at the end of the year. Everyday was a new surprise. It was almost unreal. It was another moment that would never be forgotten. A perfect moment shared with Ruka, like so many others...
