Hey guys! Welcome to Episode three of On the Other Side! Where we last left off, Kurama is a new student to a school. There he meets the shy and quiet Frodo, the wanting-to-fight Mitsuo, and the bad-ass Hiei. In this episode we encoughter more characters and maybe even love interests! But what do I know!
But let's get into the authoress' life, shall we? I know you all have been wondering how my life is going...well, I freaked during karate, almost like at school, but not that bad, but that's okay! I have just caught a case of Buffy mania, even though the series has long-since ended (I loves Spike and Angel... ooh... this show is brimming with slash possibilities!) So I am going to have Spike come in, see if you like it, and then figure if he will be permanent... kinda like him during the series...I will not make him a vampire, however... I want them all human, but I think you all noticed that... considering the only real connection that Frodo has with his Hobbit counterpart is the fact that he is short. I am also going to put in the Yu- Gi-Oh! cast (if you notice, I implemented in the first chapter of ones appearance) and I am also, as you know, putting in more hot guys (Legolas fangirls... contain your joy...). So please, read on! Luvies!
On the Other Side
Episode 3: "In Which Kurama Finds Distress"
"Hey! Hasunuma!" yelled some boys, "You and Mitsuo going to make out at the lockers?!"
"Nah... not today..." Hasunuma smirked impishly, "He's found a friend he's helping fit in."
"That smart-ass Asian student?" piped in someone.
"Yeah... nice guy, actually..."
"Well, you're just one of those bisexual beasts that can get away with anything," one of them stressed out.
It was true. Hasunuma could be your worst enemies or best of friends. He could charm teachers and have the most street cred a 'Gangsta' could dream of. Of course, if he liked you, it wouldn't matter.
Hasunuma put his foot on a red locker door with a slam, pushing his heel on the lock to help him stay up. "Yeah... well... doesn't matter..."
He ignored the rest of the things that were discussed.
Mitsuo walked up to him. "...Hasu..."
"Hey, what's up?" he turned his head, smiling brightly.
"Uh... nothing much... um... uh..." Mitsuo blushed. A lot of times he just felt safer with Hasunuma... he didn't always want to talk, but Hasumuma almost pressured him to.
"So, how's that new kid?" Hasunuma asked.
"Oh! Kurama? He's cool... he almost beated up some of those guys that tried to harass me again..." Mitsuo blushed.
"He did? He likes you..."
"Uh huh. He really can't stand the treatment here... I guess Japan is really different..."
Hasunuma listened carefully. Mitsuo liked it when he paid attention to him. Almost like a girl...
"Hiei? Hiei?" the Language Arts teacher growled lowly at the unruly boy.
Hiei turned his head from the window and blinked. "Yes?"
"What are you doing staring at the window when we are reading When Zachary Beaver Came To Town[1]? It's your turn..."
Hiei snorted. "Zachary got a heart-attack from being so God-damn fat and died. The end."
Some kids snickered.
The teacher rubbed her temples. "I figured I'd have a chance with you... but it appears I do not..."
Hiei flipped the book. "Oh, send me to the friggin' office already..."
"No, I won't. It doesn't do you any good."
Hiei smirked. "Go figure, right?"
She sighed. "Next person?"
Hiei glanced at the window again. Sometimes he just wished that someone would jump out of it and pull him with them away from this hellhole....
The story pressed on, Hiei entirely bored and having no interest in the book. He felt someone poke at his head.
He turned his head. "...what?"
"Just seein' if your hair is real..." said the person behind him.
"AHHH!" Hiei jumped up and strangle him, "DIE! DIE! DIE!"
"Hiei!" the teacher yelled, "What are you doing endangering a student?!"
Hiei looked at her. "Just leave me the hell alone!"
"Stop it, Hiei!" some girls pleaded.
Hiei let go, growling. "I'm sorry..."
"Oh! Just go to the office!" she screamed, aggravated.
Hiei stormed out. Some students snickered, enjoying the show.
"It's not his fault..." some of the girls piped in, taking his defense. "You know that his last foster family abused him... and to transition to a normal life like this has to be much on him at such a time..."
The teacher sighed, holding her head up with the book. "I know... I know... but at the same time, you have to remember; he's scarred for life. Nothing can correct him, now, except discipline and maybe a friend."
We WanT u thE l0cK3rz 7:oo A.m,
Frodo took the small note from his backpack. He sighed heavily. Another bunch of people wanting to hurt him. Now he had a day's notice, which definitely helped somewhat. It was done ransom-style, random lettering from newspapers, magazines, and maybe even a textbook just to freak him out. He decided that asking for someone to save him would be out of the question. They would only jump on him more, like the last time he ever called for help. He glanced at the line of lockers to see who was most likely responsible for the note.
He sighed when he realized it could've been anyone, and gave up.
"They gave you a tough letter now, not giving the penmanship so you can't convict anyone?" asked a voice.
Frodo looked down. "Hey, Sam..." he mumbled.
Sam bent down to look at the letter. "Well, this letter looks like it came out of one of those Seventeens or something... so I guess they have a sister... narrows it down a bit, right?"
"Or simply a girlfriend..." Frodo threw it on the ground.
Sam watched it drop. "You don't have to go through this."
"I know... but I don't want to get in trouble. I mean, I know your dad would be proud if you defied your enemies, but surely not mine. Not that I have any..."
"Well, what would your uncle think?"
Frodo stared at Sam's soft curls and then the other way. "I don't know... I don't want to know..."
He started to walk away.
Miss Arwen saw Hiei sitting at the far corner of the office and sighed. She stepped in. "Jaganshi Hiei, what did you do?"
"Tried to strangle a student..." he grumbled.
"Hiei!"
"Don't worry, I got an excuse..." he said, tapping his head, "... insanity."
Miss Arwen sighed. "You don't understand how hard I tried to tame you.. so many times... I just don't understand, Hiei... what do I have to do to change you? What do I have to do?"
"Nothing... I just don't change... that's all..." Hiei smirked.
Miss Arwen was ready to strangle someone herself. "You can too change! I know you can!"
"You know, you shouldn't talk," Hiei got up slowly. "It makes you look stupid.[2]"
Miss Arwen sighed, a tinge of anger in her voice. "Hiei... please... just..."
She heard someone knocking on her door to her office and ran off.
Kurama listened to the teacher drone on about some sort of periodical tables... he wasn't sure... he knew it all.
His eyes glided around the class. There were cute girls, cute guys... it was a beautiful school for both sexes. And he never stayed on one side of the line forever.
He looked to the back and saw a mysterious figure. He was clearly older. Was that a student teacher-type person?
He seemed so scary looking, but in a handsome way. He was... haunting... not eerie...
He wore a long black jacket, even though it had to be more than nice out to wear shorts and tanks. He had long boots and black pants. He had pale skin, and he evidently didn't like to be in the artificial lights like this. The most shocking thing was his blue eyes and platinum blonde hair, cut short.
Kurama saw him slowly turn his head, and quickly looked to the blackboard. He only wanted to see who he was! Now everyone was going to suspect something!
He cursed mentally and tried to listen. He had no idea of very much yet. And what happened to Hiei and Frodo was a mystery to him yet. So all he had was the student teacher.
"Who is that?" he asked his lab partner, Usagi.
She looked back. "Oh, I guess the teacher forgot to introduce you to him. He's the student teacher, Mr. S. Just ignore him until he has to start teaching us."
Kurama gulped. "Scary..."
"Yeah, that and the fact he has been staring at you ever since you sat."
