Warning Please Read First:
I just want to warn everybody that the story you are reading, though you should keep reading it, the story's content is related closely to the book so if you don't want to spoil the books and the HUGE plot twists in it then you probably should stop reading, even if I don't want you too.
Anyways I finished chapter 2, I got some complaints that the story wasn't having enough action, well so I figured I would add just a little. Trust me, this is just a little… (if you've read Dead Start then you'd know what I mean) Sorry it took me a long time to write this chapter…. I was sick over break, yes over break… I had no energy to think of a plot and start typing.
Also I must add I had some complications at first, I wasn't sure whether I should have the curses or not, I figured it would be easier to write with if I didn't have them, but then again calling each other rat and cat seemed kinda dumb if it wasn't for their curse. I am not really sure about my decision and whether it is right so if you would like to state your opinion please do and review I look forward to hearing your comments.
Game Shop
Chapter Two: A Smashing Start (hahaha so cliché)
A boy with orange hair entered the coffee shop. The girl at the register looked up and smiled, she knew him well; he came almost every morning to the coffee shop.
"Hey Kyo, the usual?" the girl asked watching him walk up to the register.
"Yeah…." Kyo mumbled. He sighed, while he took his coffee with extra milk and headed out the door. Huh, the girl thought, he must not be in a great mood today. But then again Kyo was never really happy, he was always moody and angry. To be honest that's how the girl liked him. She had been watching Kyo for some time, secretly she liked him, but at the time she was too shy to ever admit it. Maybe next time, was what she thought day after day, a day past, a week had past, then months started to pass. Ah well maybe next time, she thought.
Kyo stumbled out the coffee shop, he was in no mood to talk, yesterday was still fresh in his mind. "Damn rat…" he muttered under his breath as he was walking around the corner near the shop. Kyo hesitated when he came to the door, he could just run away as he had done before, but the smirk on Yuki's face if he did leave kept him standing there in front of the door. Humph Kyo huffed as he opened the door and walked in drinking a little bit of coffee.
"I'm here," Kyo called out to the empty store. Shortly after there was some rummaging upstairs as Shigure stumbled down the stairs in his PJ's sleepy-eyed.
"Kyo is that you, what are you doing here so early?" Shigure mumbled.
"Early! That's what I said! But you told me to be here at seven!" Kyo yelled at Shigure, he had a suspicion that Shigure forgot that he made them come to work at seven am.
"It's seven…." Shigure froze.
"YES IT'S SEVEN!" Kyo yelled in Shigure's ear.
"Oh…" Shigure muffled, waking up the hatred that fumed from Kyo, "I should be changing see, umm I was doing the laundry that's why I am in my PJ's." Kyo didn't buy it as Shigure was sweating up a storm. Shigure was slowly edging up the stairs, but before he could get up one step Kyo smiled and pulled him down.
"Kyo what are you doing… Ahhhhh!" was what Yuki heard as he walked through the door.
"I'm here…" Yuki started but he stopped abruptly seeing Kyo shoving Shigure's head through the stairs.
CRASH!
"Ah thank you Yuki," Shigure breathed, his head had an impression of a stair across his forehead, "but did you have to knock over two whole shelves of games in the process?" Yuki at the time was only concerned about hurting Kyo not considering the damage the store would receive. On the ground there was at least fifty games littered on the tile floor, along with two monstrous shelves both knocked over, the last one had Kyo spilled on top of it. He sighed as he started to pick up one of the shelves Kyo knocked over.
"Stupid cat…" Yuki murmured as he started to put back the games on the shelf. Because of this whole incident he wouldn't be able to play any games this morning before they opened the shop and work would begin.
"Well you know what it's your fault you damn rat!" Kyo yelled, trying to get his body out of the shelf.
"How is it my fault?" Yuki hissed glaring at the orange haired boy.
"If you would have left me alone none of this would have happened," Kyo growled standing up raising his fists in anger.
"You would have killed Shigure," Yuki protested, wait did I just say that….
"And killing him would be a bad thing?" Kyo said, not being sarcastic, Shigure started to cry fake tears in the back.
"Well then we wouldn't get paid, and you would probably be imprisoned in that box," Yuki hissed. Kyo was furious, Yuki had just touched a nerve that should never have been.
"At least I am not a pet!" Kyo yelled, lunging his body at Yuki planning a well placed kick to the face. Yet Yuki countered it easily and sacked Kyo in the stomach with great force, then Yuki hurled Kyo straight through the glass door. The glass shattered on impact and a rush of orange flew out the door making a loud THUMP as the boy hit the cemented sidewalk.
"That damn rat…. He hit me hard," Kyo mumbled as a small river of blood started to trickle its way down his cheek. Kyo managed to sit up and looked at a small pair of feet over to his left. His eyes started scanning up to see a girl with an expression of shock and concern on her face. She looked familiar… wait she's the girl who's going to start working here….
"Are y-you o-ok?" Tohru asked concerned, it was the same orange haired boy she saw yesterday. Here he was now in front of her bleeding…
Kyo's face went red, he quickly got up and rushed straight threw the door where the glass once stood. Tohru started walking after him but she stopped when she saw he went backstage of the store. Inside Tohru was even more shocked, she saw a huge mess of games scattered along the floor and the silver haired boy trying to clean up. But his efforts weren't making much of an effect, he just kept piling the games all on the shelf till they started falling off when the shelves got so bloated with Half Life 2.
"Tohru!" Shigure called, seeing Tohru stand there in the doorway of the store, "come in!"
What have I gotten into? Tohru wondered as she bothered to open the door to the store she would start working in, and right now it looked like it needed a lot of help.
"I see you're here early, well you didn't have too but I am glad you did I need some help so do what you see fit. I'll be back later I need some donuts." Shigure said to the sad overburden Tohru.
Shigure smiled as he walked out the door, he wondered if he had given her too much, but then his stomach grumbled. Might as well feed myself first then I can worry about the store.
Tohru stood in the same spot Shigure left her, in her head a billion thoughts were buzzing, but one remained vivid, where do I start first? She wondered looking around the messy store.
