Kenshin is indeed a famous anime character. Have you heard the anime
Rurouni Kenshin/ samurai X? Yes, that's the guy with the crossed-scar=) A
baka deshi is a stupid student=) Yes, yes, I'm the deshi of two of my
friends, who are my japanese teachers. I just watched THE LAST SAMURAI
yesterday! It totally rocks! Chiki said that all rk fans must watch that-
and I agree. It rocks!!! ^___^ Please review! Thanks!
Time seems to fly, especially when you are in secondary school. Secondary school life flies by, just like how fast secondary one flew past us like how time ticks away on the clock. Shiyuan was dreading the next day, which she would be forced to have school detention with Shinsani. 24 Hours flew past. Laura had expressed to her sympathy wishes, which was of no comfort. " Remember to have a good time in detention, alright? Treasure the detention and always be positive about things!" Laura said and she went away bouncing on her heels lightly, leaving Shiyuan to stare after her with big innocent blinking eyes.
Misaki and Izumi had disappeared recently, apparently they were not taking the same subjects as Shiyuan since there was a new module system in JuFirRose High, therefore, they had not seen each other recently. I'm missing my friends already.I certainly miss my baka deshi and of course, Izumi.
Dragging her feet sluggishly to the classroom where she was supposed to report for detention, Shiyuan entered the classroom and threw her sling schoolbag on the front desk. After two minutes passed, Shinsani entered the classroom and his eyes met Shiyuan's eyes for a moment before he broke eye contact and pouted. He placed his bag beside the desk that Shiyuan's bag was placed on.
" Er." Shiyuan started lamely.
" Yeah." Shinsani replied back lamely.
" Okay.so.perhaps I was wrong." Shiyuan began. " To have screamed at you before you had a chance to explain."
Shinsani felt a smile forming on his lips but he resisted and urged her to continue speaking.
" So anyway.what was it that you wanted to tell me about?" Shiyuan finished her inner thought.
Shinsani was smiling and he was about to answer her question when Mr Cham Kam Poo entered the classroom, with a suspicious glint plastered on his face. " Don't go all intimate okay! You two steads having a private conversation before detention, eh? Don't deny! Haha!" He chuckled merrily to himself, causing Shiyuan and Shinsani to look at each other before turning to look at him with their eyebrows raised.
" Don't pretend! Alright, get down to serious business, you two!"
The two sat next to each other, attracting Mr Cham's attention. " See? You steads are also sitting beside each other. It's so obvious!" Mr Cham Kam Poo pointed out childishly.
Shiyuan glared at Shinsani and Shinsani shrugged. The rest of the three hours was spent on revising all different kinds of subjects. Yes, they were allowed to talk during detention and they were debating away on the topic of George Bush when Mr Cham interrupted them again with an irritatingly mocking tone," Whoah you two get on really well!" Shiyuan widened her eyes and was ready to strangle Mr Cham but she fought the urge to do so.
" Mr Cham can you please just stop commenting? We are trying to study here!" Shiyuan exclaimed through gritted teeth. Shinsani was grinning, or rather, smirking as he continued writing on his piece of foolscap paper the pros of the debating topic. Shiyuan frowned at his unconcerned reaction.
After detention, Shiyuan walked off briskly without waiting for Shinsani's answer to her question. She was thinking, " Now even a teacher thinks we are steads, I don't wish for anymore complication. It sucks getting paired up with someone so ill mannered so as to slap me" Shinsani decided not to run after her. He knew that she would blindly go for fencing training on Saturday, so he decided to go to school to train with her alone, and then attend the actual training with her on Sunday.
On Saturday.
" What are you doing here??!! Where are the rest??" Shiyuan exclaimed. Horrors of the horrors. The fencing hall was empty with no one and Shiyuan was left feeling anxious and scared. I mean, how would you feel if you went for training and you turned up only to discover that no other people turned up for training and you're the only one? So Shiyuan was somewhat relieved when she spotted Shinsani coming into the fencing hall with his fencing gear.
" There is no training today." He said matter-of-factly.
It took quite a while for the news to sink in for Shiyuan. " Why wasn't I informed?" Her voice sounded oddly high-pitched, higher than usual.
" I tried countless times to tell you but there had to be something to spoil it. So I figured that we could self-train by ourselves since we are already here today and we can go for official training tomorrow on Sunday." Shinsani replied, putting on his fencing gear. Shiyuan pondered for a while and to Shinsani's relief, she did a cross-eyed rurouni kenshin smile instead of flaring up. Shinsani chuckled inwardly as to how Shiyuan could have so many different sides of temperament.
" Let's start sparring then!" Shiyuan said and after they did a fencing ritual, they were off into serious fencing. Shinsani gave Shiyuan fencing tips and guided her along. Strange as it was, but, Shiyuan was beginning to feel apologetic towards Shinsani for flaring up so many times at him and letting him tolerate her childish obstinate behaviour.
After they had finished fencing, both of them removed their fencing suits and they sat down, sprawled on the floor, exhausted. " Thanks Shinsani! " Shiyuan thanked Shinsani graciously. " ORO?!" Was his reply and the next thing he knew, Shiyuan had hit his head in a flash. " DON'T USE KENSHIN'S TRADEMARK PHRASE!!! YOU'RE NOT HIM!!! YOU ARE A LOUSY IMPERSONATION OF HIM!!!"
"ITAI!" Shinsani complained, rubbing his head against the spot where Shiyuan had grudgingly hit him. " Sorry then. But I was just shocked that you actually knew basic courtesy. Well, what are you thanking me for?"
Shiyuan was -can you believe it- blushing for the first time=| She shifted her gaze onto the floor, inspecting for ants as she tried to phrase her sentence properly. " Urm.Er. you see.I threw my temper at you but you were so sweet to come along and self-train with me. You could have left me here waiting all by myself clueless about the change of date.but you didn't.and you came to self-train with me too. That's what a great partner should be, don't you think? "
It was Shinsani's turn to go red and his blush contrasted nicely with his brownish-red hair. He ruffled his hair and said, " Do itashimashite? You know what? It's time to pack up.come on.I'll walk you home."
Shiyuan grinned. Soon they were on their way walking home when they had their first normal chat without any arguments.
" Can I ask you something?" Shiyuan inquired.
" Shoot."
" Is your hair of natural colour? Why does it look red under direct sunlight?" Her curiosity was getting the better of her.
" My hair is naturally brown. I didn't dye it whatsoever and when you ask me why it looks red under direct sunlight, you might as well ask yourself why your hair looks brown under direct sunlight." Shinsani replied logically.
" Sou Desu Ne," Shiyuan pronounced in her unconvincing Japanese accent. [think: lilin's Japanese accent] Don't worry, she is currently working hard to improve her Japanese accent.
" Are you interested in Rurouni Kenshin too?" Shiyuan asked eagerly, her bright big brown hazel eyes were shining with a twinkle as she twisted her mouth into a big smile and two dimples appeared at the sides of her cheeks.
" DUH!!!" It was Shinsani's turn to get all excited and have a little boy's demur and childlike excitement over his interest.
So they began gushing and going gaga over the various anime characters and they discussed excitedly about the different anime videos that were present. They discussed about Rurouni Kenshin aka Battousai, whose the hottie of the show and next they discussed about Soujirou, in which Shiyuan injected excitedly that Izumi loved Soujirou to pieces. Then Shinsani gushed that Kaoru was a pretty babe and they were on to the various characters like Yahiko, Kenji, Gentatsu, Misao, Megumi, Sanosuke, Aoshi, Shishio. All the essential things that a basic Rurouni Kenshin fan needs to know.
So they went together for the next fencing lesson the next day and they had progressed to another higher standard of friendship. No longer the enemies, since Shiyuan had misunderstood him and his brown hair.
Misaki-chan's end notes: Hi! This chapter is just an appetizer, no climax=) But I have gotten a plot for Shiyuan and Shinsani to get closer already! Yay! ^___^
