For all RyoSaku fans.
I played the game "Angel and Mortal" during my camping trip. The game is like this:
Those involves in the game gets to pick a name. Eg. If I pick Ryoma's name, then I am Ryoma's angel. I have to write him a greeting or message at least once a day. I am not supposed to reveal my identity as an angel till the last day of camp. In other words, everyone is an angel and a mortal of someone. At the end of the camp, the angels have to pass a small present to their mortal. Yay, so everyone gets a gift!
So, can you predict who is Ryoma's and Sakuno's angel? (Hint: RyoSaku)
Warning: I hate to say this, but everyone is out of character.
Note: I don't own Prince of Tennis, but I wish I did...
School holidays. Seishun Gakuen is going to have their annual camping trip for their students tomorrow.
"Ne, Sakuno. Did we forget to buy anything?" Tomoka asked her best friend.
Sakuno quickly scanned their shopping list.
"All we left is the present for the angel and mortal game." Sakuno replied.
"How much must the gift cost?" Tomoka asked.
Sakuno looked down at the camping list paper that was given to her when she signed up.
"350 to 600 yen." Sakuno said to her friend.
"This game better be good. It sounds lame!" Tomoka commented.
The two girls stopped in front of a shop called "Lovely Gifts".
"Do you think we can find reasonable gifts here? It looks expensive." Sakuno asked.
Tomoka shrugged and pulled Sakuno along with her. She pushed the glass door opened and walked in, with Sakuno tagging along behind.
"Whoa, now I know why they call it lovely gifts!" Tomoka said in awe at the pretty porcelains dolls in front of her.
Sakuno nodded in agreement and walked over to the opposite glass shelves. She noticed a small glass musical box with a miniature pair of love swans on displayed.
"How pretty..." Sakuno said softly to herself.
Sakuno noticed the price tag on the box.
1526 yen? How expensive. I can't afford it. Sakuno thought sadly.
"Ah, Ryoma sama!" Tomoka shouted when she saw Ryoma and Momoshiro entered the shop.
"Ryoma sama! You are going for the camping trip right?" Tomoka shouted excitedly.
"Yeah, of course he is going. All thanks to me!" Momoshiro pointed proudly to himself.
Ignoring Momoshiro, Tomoka turned to Ryoma.
"Ryoma sama, have you bought all the necessary items?" Tomoka asked.
"We have bought everything except a gift for the game." Momoshiro replied for Ryoma.
"I didn't ask you..." Tomoka shouted.
"I won't reply if Ryoma did!" Momoshiro shouted back.
While Tomoka and Momoshiro were busy arguing, Ryoma walked off towards the opposite aisle.
Why is everything here is so expensive? Ryoma wondered as he looked at the price of the miniatures in the shelves.
Ryoma turned and saw Sakuno who was busy counting money from her wallet. He walked over to her.
"You want to buy something?" Ryoma asked.
Sakuno looked up, surprised to see Ryoma. She blushed and quickly stuffed her money inside her wallet.
"Haha..." She laughed nervously.
"Everything is so expensive here. Mada mada dane." Ryoma said.
Sakuno nodded and turned to look back at the shelf that has the musical box that she like.
I am shortage of money. Only by a few... Sakuno thoughts were distracted by Ryoma's voice.
"You like that musical box right?" Ryoma asked, pointing to the musical box that Sakuno had her eyes on.
Sakuno blushed and was about to reply when Tomoka suddenly grabbed her by the arm.
"Sakuno! Everything here is so expensive. Let's go somewhere else." Tomoka said.
"Okay." Sakuno replied.
"Bye bye Ryoma sama!" Tomoka waved to Ryoma and dragged Sakuno along with her.
When the girls were out of sight, Ryoma turned to look at the price of the musical box.
"Expensive..." He mumbled.
"Oi Echizen! Are you ready to go? I can't afford anything here." Momoshiro asked.
"Let's go." Ryoma said.
Ryoma and Momoshiro walked out of the store. Momoshiro noticed a steam bun seller nearby.
"Wait here, I want to get some chicken buns. You want anything Echizen?" Momoshiro asked.
Ryoma shook his head. He leaned against the wall and waited for Momoshiro to return.
The sight of Sakuno looking adoringly at the musical box flashed through his mind. Ryoma blushed. He really likes Sakuno but he can't seem to find the right words to say to her. He doesn't even know if she has feelings for him.
Ryoma sighed. He took out his wallet and counted his money.
2052 yen left. Yes, I can buy it! Ryoma thought happily.
Momoshiro returned with a small paper bag filled with steaming hot chicken buns. He offered a bun to Ryoma.
"No thanks." Ryoma said.
Momoshiro shrugged and started eating his buns.
"Momo senpai, can you wait here for a while? I want to buy something from the shop we went just now." Ryoma said.
Momoshiro looked at Ryoma in disbelief.
"Echizen, you must be so rich if you want to buy the gift from that shop. That place is a daylight robbery!" Momoshiro said.
"I saw something nice just now and I wanted to buy it..." Ryoma said.
"For okasan!" Ryoma added quickly when Momoshiro gave him the weird look.
Momoshiro patted Ryoma on the back.
"What a sweet boy, buying gifts for his okasan!" Momoshiro teased.
What a bad liar! I know you want to buy something for that girl. Momoshiro thought silently.
Ryoma waved at Momoshiro and ran back to the shop. He walked in and purchased the musical box.
----------------------
"It's not here." Sakuno said, sadly.
Sakuno returned to "Lovely Gifts" that evening to purchase the musical box. She had begged her obasan for extra cash so she can buy it.
"Are you looking for the glass musical box?" The storekeeper asked.
"Yup. Did someone purchase it?" Sakuno asked.
"Yeah. Someone bought it earlier on. I am sorry, but that was the last piece we had." He apologized.
Sakuno pouted. She couldn't hide her disappointment.
"It's ok. Thanks." Sakuno said and walked out of the shop.
(Note: Mada mada... the story is about to begin. This chapter is only a short introduction. By the way, I whacked the price in yen... I had no idea how much a musical box would cost. I guess you should know who is Sakuno's angel by now right? Haha! Hint:RyoSaku.)
