Mango Manga! Chapter IV: Trouble Starts At the Home
Ato shivered. The thought of Bera's mom was horrendous enough, but her mother at school! The thought was too horrible to even try to conceive. Before Ato could speak, Ryu quickly talked.
"Who are you? You're a little old to be a student here, you know." he said, quickly laughing at her face. Bera's mother frowned, and before anyone noticed, she slapped Ryu across the mouth, sending him spiraling into the ground.
"Ow..." Ryu said, spitting a tooth from his mouth. The young boy behind Bera's mother laughed and pointed as well.
"William, shut up before you get it too." she stated.
"I didn't do anything!" he said back. A loud 'pap' could be heard for miles around, and the young boy was suddenly laying next to Ryu on the ground, dazed. A large sweat drop fell from Ato and Bevy's head.
"Um... Hello, Mrs.. Bera's mom. It's been quite some time, hasn't it?" said Ato, bowing silently. Bera's mom wasn't impressed.
"Yeah, whatever. Who beat up my child?" she asked. Everyone quickly pointed to Bevy.
"Nice." Bevy said, her eyes half open. Bera's mom stepped up and gripped Bevy's ear, twisting it and making a horrible face. Bevy yelled, tears forming in her eyes.
"How dare you beat on my defenseless daughter! She doesn't know how to fight! You probably just wanted her lunch money, you bully! I should beat you right here and now!" she yelled. Ryu and Ato tried to pull her off of Bevy, but it was no use. They sighed, and went up to Ryu's dorm room to see if Kiyo was still there. Once they entered, the noticed Kiyo was on the bed, drawing pictures of Sakura, though she wasn't there.
"Seems like you miss her.." said Ryu, holding back laughter. Kiyo jumped up and threw the picture into the trash.
"I do not!" he replied. Ato sighed again and sat on the end of the bed.
"Kiyo- why is Bera's mother here today?" she asked. Kiyo's eyes got wide, and he swallowed spit. He went into a cold sweat, and Ato and Ryu raised an eyebrow.
"Bera's mother is here? I..I don't know why." he said, wiping his face.
"I think you know something that we don't know, Kiyo." said Ryu, sitting next to Kiyo on the other bed. "What is it that you're trying to hide?"
"Nothing! Just leave me alone! I can't see her right now." he yelled, flashing away in a plume of smoke. Ryu coughed loudly, and noticed that he was gone.
"Well, that was useful." said Ato smugly. Ryu laughed at her joke.
"We're boyfriend and girlfriend now.." said Ryu, walking over to the bed Ato sat on. "What do you think we should do? I mean.. You know.." he whispered. Ato looked far from impressed.
"What do you think you're doing! We're not that far up in the relation scale! Back off, pervert!" she yelled, throwing 2 kunai towards Ryu, who tried to dodge them to the best of his ability, but failed. They landed in his ears- piercing 2 holes on both ears. They stung slightly, an Ato gasped.
"Oh my GOD! I am so sorry!" she said. Ryu sighed.
"It's ok. You saved me a trip to the ear piercing place!" he laughed. Ato smiled and kissed him on the lips, first once, then for a long moment. She smiled and ran her hands across his chest, then walked away.
"Ato..Ato? Ato! Help! I'm still pinned to the wall!" he yelled. She ran back and pulled out the kunai with a strong force. She fell backwards, and he fell onto her. She tried to hold onto his pants to prevent herself from falling, but to no avail. They ripped, and they landed on each other. Ato screamed. When Ryu looked down, he still wore no underwear!
Oh God! Why am I such an idiot! She's going to hate me for this... he thought, but was surprisingly wrong.
"It's so huge! Wow!" Ato yelled. Ryu was shocked.
"Um... I'm confused. What's going on?" he asked.
"It's so huge and thick! Look how it swings and moves! It's so beautiful!" she said again. "I just want to hold it and cuddle it!" she smiled. Ryu blushed.
"Well, if you want to.." he smiled slightly. Yes! This is what I've been waiting for! Ato lunged upwards and grabbed a bird that had flew in through the window. It was huge, thick, swung and moved, and she held and cuddled it. Ryu's jaw dropped as he went and got his pants back. I knew it was too good to be true. About an hour later, Ato left, and Ryu went to bed.
Begin dream sequence...
Ato and Ryu had just gotten married, and had just began their honeymoon in Canada. He opened the door, and carried her into the room, placing her on the bed. She smiled a beautiful smile, and suddenly, her white wedding dress ripped off, showing a tight black leather outfit. She held a large whip, with studs going down the side, as Ryu's eyes grew wide.
"Bend over." she said, and Ryu followed directions. A large crack could be heard, and she hit him across his butt with the whip. He moaned slightly, and smiled.
"Do it again.." he said. Suddenly, another voice could he heard.
"No, no, you're not doing it right. You have to flick your wrist like this!" said Bera's mom, who smacked him with a force to crack his skin.
"ACK! STOP! NO!" he yelled, before waking up.
-End sequence..-
Ryu jolted up in a cold sweat. That dream was creepy- why was Bera's mom giving Ato tips on how to spank her man? He got up, and realized that it was the next day. The sunlight was bright, and he walked into the bathroom. When he opened the door, a rancid, sour smell flowed outwards. Kiyo was sitting on the toilet, but didn't notice that Ryu opened the door. Ryu peered inside quietly. Kiyo was reading a magazine. Wait.. Reading? Kiyo doesn't read when it isn't necessary! Upon further inspection, the magazine was a Playboy, featuring Bevy holding a large plastic object to Ato's lips. It seems that it was ejection some type of butterscotch frosting onto her hair. Bera chan was holding the camera over her own face, blinding herself with the flash, while Kiyo was pinching Bevy's nipples. When did they do this!
Ryu banged open the door, and Kiyo jumped.
"Whoa- Ryu! What are you doing here?" he asked, pushing the magazine over to the back of the toilet.
"I was going to ask you the same thing.., but I live here, remember?" he said. "Why is it that you can't move from the toilet at this time?" Ryu asked again. Kiyo shuddered. He moved his right hand from in between his legs, trying to wipe it off on a piece of toilet paper. Ryu raised an eyebrow.
"Eew. That's nasty-" Ryu stated. Kiyo got up and washed his hands.
"Look- masturbation is healthy for you! Keeps your stuff active." he said, rushing out of the bathroom. Ryu took the magazine, only using 2 fingers, and placed it in a bag. He may need this for black mail later.
After washing, getting dressed, and disinfecting the toilet, Ryu was on his way to class. He walked in, and Kakashi sat at the desk.
"Wow- you're on time today! Kudos!" he yelled.
"Not a prob, Mr. Kakashi." Ryu smiled. He sat in his usual seat, in front of Bevy. Kakashi then spoke-
"Today, we'll be having a guest speaker.. Bera-Chan's mom, Mrs.. Well, it seems as though I can't read the name, because it's smudged. Well- Bera Chan's mom!" Everyone clapped except for Bevy and Ryu. The both sat, their mouths gaping. Bera's mom stood, and smiled.
"Today, I'll be speaking on people who like to hurt others- emotionally." as soon as she said that, Kiyo walked through the door, with Sakura draped on his left arm. He looked at the front, and Bera's mom turned red.
"Ack! Bera's Mom!" he yelled, pushing Sakura off of him.
"Kiyo, who was that on you? You KNOW you date my daughter.." she said, silently. Ryu and Bevy burst into laughter. Kiyo and Bera! Kiyo blushed, and Sakura stormed off. Ato, who placed her hand over her eyes, laughed as well. Bera's mom ran her fingernails over the board, and everyone's laughter had a sudden halt.
"What the HELL is so funny!" she asked. No one answered. She looked over at Kiyo.
"You'd better go sit down, boy- before I have to push my foot up your ass." Kiyo followed directions. He pulled up a seat, up front, so he wouldn't get into more trouble. Then, Bevy began to speak with Ryu.
"Damn, that blows. He has to sit up front now." she sighed.
"Yeah, I bet you know a thing or two about blowing.." he replied.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Hey, Ato!" she waved across the room. Ato waved back, and as did Ryu.
"Tell me, Bevy- when were you, Ato, Bera and Kiyo in a Playboy magazine?"
Bevy's face went white and she blushed.
"It was a project.. We were young.. We were bored.. STOP ASKING SUCH HARD QUESTIONS!" she said, running from the class. He raised an eyebrow, and turned to Bera's mom.
"My lesson is on those who hurt others emotionally through intimidation. Recently, my daughter was sent to intensive care her boyfriend's best friends and her other female best friend. I'm just pissed because Ato was there the whole time and didn't move once to help her caring, unselfish best friend in her time of need from these horrible sophomore bullies. I don't understand why her boyfriend of 2 years wouldn't help."
"2 years!" Ryu and Ato shouted. They then went into that laughter that you get when things happen really quickly. Kiyo shot them a look, but it was repelled by their overcome joy and thoughts of Bera and Kiyo together since the 8th grade. Bera's mom continued to talk, and before they knew it, classes were over. It was about dinner time, and Ryu and Ato had a wonderful idea.
"Hey- let's invite them to dinner. This would give them all a good chance to talk." asked Ato.
"Why not- it may be funny." Ryu said in conjunction.
Invitations were sent, and dinner was made. A turkey, with all the fixings. Mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, fried rice, lo mein, shrimp fried rice, egg rolls, etc. Ryu noticed that the whole menu was composed of starch- and Ryu had to recook, because Bera's mom would not eat it. So, he made- Ham, greens, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes, rolls, and a cake. He learned to cook from his mother, who doesn't call him anymore. There they were, Ato and Ryu, with way too much food, awaiting their guests. The doorbell rang, and the 1st to come was Kiyo and Sakura. They walked in, Kiyo wearing a black suit with a white shirt and rose in the pocket. He even dyed his hair black with white tips just to match. Sakura wore a black dress with a white trim. They walked over to the table, and sat down.
"Well... don't you two look nice." said Ato.
"Why aren't you dressed? Are you wearing rags?" asked Sakura. Ato looked at her with a sense of rage.
"No.. I'll be changing in a minute, bitch.."
"What did you call me!" Sakura flailed.
"A BITCH!" Ato yelled back, and Ryu and Kiyo held them both down. Ryu pulled Ato into the bedroom and tried to calm her.
"You stay here until you cool off." he said, closing the door. The doorbell rang once again, and this time, it was Bera's mom.. And Bera!
"What the.. Ahem.. Welcome to dinner. I'm glad you both could make it.." he said through clenched teeth. Why was Bera there!
"Thank you, Ryu." she said smugly, walking over to the table. They both sat down, saying nothing to Kiyo or Sakura. Ryu re-entered the room, and noticed that Ato was wearing a lovely pink dress with black flowers flowing upwards. Ryu changed into a pink suit, with a black rose in the pocket, since everyone else matched with whom they came with. Before long, everyone sat at the table. Ato stood, and banged her fork on the glass.
"I'd like to thank you for coming to this dinner that Ryu and I decided to hold for all of you. I hope that you all enjoy the array of foods.." she smiled. You could tell she was nervous.
"Where'd you get that dress? At K-Mart? Eew, it's hideous!" Sakura shrieked. Ato continued to bang her fork onto the glass, until she took an angry swing, sending the cup flying across the table, shattering into the wall. Ryu sighed, and pulled Ato back into her seat.
"Calm down! Just ignore her, only for tonight!" he pleaded.
"I don't like that bitch, Ryu- but I'll do it." she replied. Ryu began to serve the food, and everyone began to eat.
"I usually don't eat ham, because it's not good for you, even though ham contains essential B vitamins, like B1, B12, and niacin. It also has phosphorous, zinc, potassium, iron and magnesium. When making ham, you should have made other items that aren't high in sodium, Ryu. Are you trying to make us dehydrated?" Bera asked, being smug and brilliant. Ryu was not happy. His eyes grew slim, and he spoke.
"Well, Bera- you don't have to eat. Especially because you weren't on the invite list! You can go home." he said. Kiyo coughed and Bera's mom spoke for her.
"Don't you talk to Bera like that!" she yelled.
"I'll talk to Bera any kind of way that I want! Just because she has you fooled into thinking she's so smart, doesn't work on me!" he yelled back, glaring at her mother.
"Well I never! Kiyo! Say something on your girlfriend's behalf!" she suggested. Kiyo swallowed, and Sakura coughed on some of her food.
"Girlfriend! I'M your girlfriend! Tell this old lady, Kiyo!" Sakura demanded, slamming her fork on the table.
"Mrs. Bera's mom- I am in love with Sakura, not Bera." he sighed. Bera's eyes went glossy and she began to cry. Ato sat back and watched.
"I'm surprised Kiyo would even want to talk to you, more or less kiss you, Sakura. I mean really- why doesn't he have the taste of ass on his lips, because it's all you kiss, Sakura!" Ato yelled. Sakura went red.
"I can't believe you.. You immigrant! How dare you talk down to me!" she yelled.
"Immigrant! At least I don't drool over my man like some lonely dog! Oh- and being a dog and being female makes you a BITCH!" Ato yelled. Sakura jumped over the table and Ato slammed her face first into the mashed potatoes, the gravy flinging over everyone's clothes. Bera sat in the back crying, and Kiyo and I just stared. Bera's mom jumped up and hi jump kicked Sakura into the turkey, and Ato swung wildly at Sakura, knocking her out onto the patio, clean out of the glass. Kiyo screamed and rushed over to Sakura.
"Oh God, why doesn't Kiyo like me!" yelled Bera, still crying, now harder than ever.
"Stupid broad! Die!" yelled Atomic, throwing glass shards downstairs onto Sakura.
"I hate you, Kiyo!" yelled Bera's mother, who jumped down and landed directly onto his back.
And Ryu just sat there. All the food was sprawled over the table, the floor, his clothes, everyone else's clothes, and in his hair. Dinner was ruined. He had slaved all day over the stove. All day. And no one really got to eat. He stood, and everyone got quiet.
"Ahem... ALL OF YOU GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS DORM ROOM NOW BEFORE I KILL ALL OF YOU!" he yelled. He startled everyone, and hey all headed towards the door. Bera was the only smart one.
"I'm not leaving. I'm still hungry..." she said, but everyone turned when she was suddenly cut off. Everyone turned and looked at Ryu, who held a kunai in his tightly clenched hands. Only that the edge of the kunai was lodged in Bera's throat. She grew pale, and blinked twice, until her eyes were a stone grey color. Her hand fell from the armrest, and everyone was silent. Bera was dead.. Ryu had killed her.
"Bera! Bera sweetie! My baby!" yelled her mother, running over to the corpse of her daughter.
"Ryu... why?" asked Kiyo and Ato. When the looked upon Ryu, something was different. He had a sinister look upon his face, and this time, it wasn't a joke...
End Chapter IV...
