Chapter 2: The Cow and Rabbit in America
May walked home from school everyday. And like always she thought about how her day was. She always thought how funny Haru and Momiji was that day. Especially the outfits Momiji wore. But she was always careful not to hug them and transform into a dragon. She rubbed her temples thinking about how much stress that was.
"Come on Haru I think she would be thrilled to find out were going to visit her house! Please can we go?"
May looked around the corner to see Momiji and Hatsuharu at her driveway.
"I don't know Momiji we might be intruding counting the fact that we didn't tell her." replied Haru.
"Don't worry this is America not Japan. Most anyone comes without telling someone else." said May walking behind them. Both Haru and Momiji jumped. May figured that they wouldn't think that she would come up behind them. She walked to her door and opened it. "Come on inside. Don't worry I wont bite." She said laughing.
"Yea! I get to see your house!" said Momiji as he hoped into her house.
"For some reason he reminds me of a rabbit with as much energy as that boy has." Said May.
A small sweat drop appeared on Haru. If Momiji hugs her then he really will be a rabbit. "Thank you for inviting us, Miss Rose." He bowed as if apologizing.
May laughed even harder. "How many times do I have to tell you Haru? Don't call me by my last name just call me May. Oh and welcome to America, you don't have to bow."
Haru blushed a deep red. He felt like an idiot. He just shrugged his shoulders and walked inside of her house.
Momiji walked around Mays house. He thought that it was so beautiful with all the pottery and paintings. He looked over at something that caught his eye. It was a scroll, and by the looks of it, it looked very old. He reached over and looked at the writing. The spell of the Zodiac. He gasped. Why would May have something like this? He turned around to see May and Haru walking towards them. May was laughing at something that he probably did. Momiji quickly hid the scroll in his shirt.
"You guys look so cute together. Haru why don't you give up on Yuki and go out with May?" he teased.
Haru's face when bright red with embarrassment. "That's not funny Momiji!" he yelled.
"Who's this Yuki? Is she pretty?" asked May.
"Nope. Yuki is a boy and he's our cousin." Said Momiji happily.
"Ew! Incest is so not the best. But hey Haru if you Gay then we can have sleepovers! That would be so much fun!" she started to bounce around all over the place. Haru shook his head.
Great now she's acting like Momiji. "I'm not Gay May!" he yelled. He had to control himself to becoming back Haru.
May just laughed. "I know that Haru I was playing around. You should know me better then that after all you and Momiji came hear about a month ago. Oh I almost forgot. Where are you guys staying? I mean who watches you guys?" she asked.
Haru and Momiji looked at each other they didn't know how to answer her. It was Haru who spoke.
"We um. live at a boarding house." He answered.
"What?! You mean the one down the street?"
"Yea that one."
May as shocked. "Oh no you cant live there. Pervs live there. I don't know what I might do if one day if you were changing and some one came and stole the cloths right off your back. Not only that but they will take all the money you have."
Haru and Momiji thought the same thing. She sounds like Ayame.
"How about this, this house is too big for me so how about you two stay hear? You don't have to pay rent either. How about that? And don't worry you wont be troubling me at all."
"What about your parents?" asked Momiji.
May looked down. "I don't have any parents. My mother rejected me when I was a baby and she killed herself. Slowly my dad became sick and died not to long ago. So I live hear by myself." She said sadly. " how about I make us something to eat?" she walked away to the kitchen.
Its like she has the zodiac curse as well. Thought Momiji. "Why not Haru? You won't have to work until midnight anymore." Said Momiji. "And Akito won't find out about it either! It would be our little secret."
"I don't know. If Akito ever found out that we went to America without his knowing then he'll find us, and you know he will."
"Please Haru? She's so lonely hear. Someone might kidnap her one-day or she might get robbed. Please? I promise I'll be careful I won't hug her."
Haru thought about it. He wouldn't have to work as hard, and if he and Momiji were careful they wouldn't transform. "Okay. But we have to be very careful."
"Careful about what?" Said May as she walked inside the room with three sandwiches.
"Um. careful that we don't get sick." Said Haru.
"So you don't mind if we stay hear?" asked Momiji.
"Of cores not. Come on lets get your stuff from the boarding house."
Both Shigure and Hatori sat on the bus both were thinking how to find this girl. They didn't even know what she looked liked.
"So this is America. There sure are a lot of pretty girls. Maybe I should find me a nice American girlfriend." Said Shigure trying to start a conversation with Hatori. Ever sense they got there Hatori had been very quite.
"As soon as possible we need to find a hotel to stay at. Lucky for us Akito gave us American dollars."
"Oh Hatori you sound so cold, come one lighten up some for me?" pleaded Shigure. The bus came to a stop and picked up three people, one of them, a girl sat in front of Hatori and Shigure, the other two sat in front of her.
"Awwww but I want to sit with May!"
Both Shigure and Hatori looked up. Both Momiji and Hatsuharu were turned around in their seats talking to the girl in front of them.
"You both will get in trouble with the driver if you stay turned around like that." Said Hatori coldly.
Both Haru and Momiji looked up and saw Shigure and Hatori looking at them. "Hatori? Shigure? What are you guys doing hear?"
"I could ask you the same thing."
"Now, now, now Hatori lets be nice. Who's your friend?" Shigure asked.
Before anyone could say anything the bus stopped and picked up more passengers. One, a boy, sat next to May.
"Hey sweet heart how about you and me go some were nice?" he asked.
"Go away." She replied.
"Oh come on. At least give me a hug and kiss." He brought up his arms as to hug her.
May grabbed his wrist and twisted it behind him. Her eyes went small like Haru's when he goes black. "Don't touch me. who do you think you are trying to hug me? I should break you in half." She said. Both Momiji and Haru were surprised. May was acting just like Haru when he goes black. "Now you listen hear if you ever touch me again I will break your neck. Now leave me alone."
The guy quickly got up and ran off the bus. Shigure looked over at Hatori. "do we have to leave now? I mean we just came hear. And I haven't even seen the high school girls yet."
May turned around. "excuse me? what about us high school girls?"
"May! What was that?" said Haru sitting next to May.
May looked over at Haru. "I don't know. I just get mad like that if someone picks on me or try's to hug me like that. I'm sorry you had to see that. I call it my black personality."
"Kinda like someone else hear." Said Shigure.
Before anything else was said the bus turned sharply. May fell right on top of Haru, and out of reaction he grab her.
"Oh no!" they both yelled.
