Chapter 3: Transferred Students

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters. I just own the plot.

"So class…since everyone has received their project I'll be handing out instruction sheets on what you should be doing everyday to keep your baby healthy and quiet. They do the same thing like what real babies do," Ms. Mariaki said.

"You mean they do number one?" Takeshi asked. He took the baby and opened up its diaper. Suddenly a yellow liquid squirted out of the baby and sprayed Takeshi's face. The whole class broke out in laughter.

"Hey Saehara! The baby sure got pissed at you!" Chitseru announced. Takeshi took a hold of Chitseru and wiped his face on his uniform.

"Thanks for sharing…now I shared with you…" Takeshi said. Chitseru's face turned green. He then ran out of the classroom.

"Saehara! Look what you did! You made my hubby sick! Ms. Mariaki!" Crystal yelled. She ran toward Ms. Mariaki and told on Takeshi.

"What is it Crystal?" Ms. Mariaki asked.

"Chitseru ran out of the classroom and he looked very sick Ms. Mariaki. All cause' of Saehara!" Crystal said pointing at Takeshi. Ms. Mariaki raised an eyebrow while looking at Takeshi in a stern way.

"Why don't you check up on him Crystal just to be on the safe side," Ms. Mariaki said. Crystal dashed out the room.

"Stupid Crystal…that tattle-tale. Just cause' I turned her down for a date last week doesn't mean she has to be all crazy about it..." Takeshi sneered.

"She's like the third cutest girl in our grade! Shame on you Takeshi," Daisuke said.

"Look…Niwa my man…I ain't seeking for 'cute' girls…I'm looking for a bigger bait. I'm fishing at the 'hot' zone…." Takeshi said. "You know what Daisuke…I have this friend who's coming to this school today. Just moved in next door to me. He has a sister who is younger than him and she is mighty fine…Like a goddess from heaven."

"Are they the same age as us?" Daisuke asked.

"Uhhh…my friend is two years older than us but his sister is the same age. You think I'll get her to go out with me?" Takeshi asked.

"Don't count on it dude. If that description is true…I wound't bet my money if she says yes," Daisuke said.

"GIRLS! Great news! Aahhh!" Crystal screamed as she ran into the classroom. All the girls including the Harada twins came dashing toward Crystal.

"What?" They all said at once.

"Hottie…. Two of em'! Both new! Gorgeous! So sweet and single!" Crystal announced.

"Let me guess…you're talking about a guy? That's why you screamed?" Riku asked folding her arms.

"Well duh she is…Riku what's wrong with you? I don't understand why your not boy crazy! By now you should've been hooked up with Satoshi! If you were obsessed with guys…" Risa said.

"Satoshi and the rest of the guys in our grade is not my type. All they want is to go out with as much girls as the other guy then, be a cad by telling that they kissed this girl to other people," Riku said. Suddenly all of them ignored her and looked up at something. Riku gritted her teeth. "Are you guys even paying attention to me? And what are you people all staring at?" Riku turned around to check out what they're looking at. She then saw a tall guy with purple hair and a girl with long blonde wavy hair standing together.

"Hey…I'm Dark Mousy and my sister Kari Mousy. This is Ms. Mariaki's class right?" Dark asked grinning at Riku.

"Uhm…yeah…" Riku said softly.

"Oh good! I've been in every single room looking for this class. Finally right sis?" Dark said.

"Yeah…hehehe…sorry about my bro…doesn't know that I'm fourteen and not seven. He offered to escort me…I said no…but he insisted…" Kari said smiling weakly.

"Well if I hadn't escorted you I wouldn't have met this lovely lady…" Dark said while resting his hand under Riku's chin, tilting it up a bit. Riku smiled and blushed.

"Uhh…thanks…I guess…" Riku said.

"So…do you have a name princess?" Dark asked.

"Uhmm…Riku Harada…" Riku said.

"Riku…pleasure to meet you…you single or what?" Dark asked.

"Dark! I think you should go now! I can handle myself now that I'm in my class!" Kari shouted. She grabbed Dark's shirt by the collar and pushed him out the door. "Now get to your class and I'll see you later. Augh! Oh brother…."

"What's going on here ladies?" Ms. Mariaki asked. No one answered. Riku stepped in front of them grabbing Kari.

"Oh it's uhm…new student…" Riku said.

"Hi," Kari said.

"Well…well…well…Let's have you introduce yourself to the class…shall we?" Ms. Mariaki said. "Everyone please listen up for a moment. We have a new student here!"

"Whoa! New student! New person to torture!" Takeshi said clasping his hands together. Kari walked up in front of the class. "Kari?" Takeshi's eyes widened.

"Looks like somebody knows you Ms. Mousy," Ms. Mariaki said. Kari looked around trying to see if she knew anyone. Her eyes stopped and smiled.

"Hi everyone, I'm Kari Mousy. I transferred from Hara-kiri High School with my two older brothers. I had many great friends there and I'm looking forward to making new ones here. But I have met two students here and they're really nice. Riku Harada and Takeshi Saehara welcomed me to this school and I really appreciate it. I consider them both my new friends," Kari said.

"Since when did I welcome her…I only met her like ten minutes ago…" Riku mumbled.

"Class…I'll be right back. I'm just going to get Kari her stuff that she needs for this class in the Supply Room," Ms. Mariaki said.

"Takeshi!" Kari yelled while running towards him. "Oh my gosh! I'm in your class. Isn't it cool? First we're neighbors, and then we're classmates, what next? Couples?" Takeshi turned red and smiled at her. "So can you introduce me to your friends?"

"Sure…" Takeshi said. He put his arm around Kari leading her to his friends. "Kari these two are my buddies, Daisuke Niwa and Satoshi Hiwatari."

"Pleasure to meet you two!" Kari said. Satoshi walked up to Kari, held up her right hand and kissed it.

"The pleasure is all mine…" Satoshi said giving her a wink.

"You're quite a gentleman, Satoshi. I'm very impressed…cut the crap cause' it ain't working for me," Kari said softly. Satoshi frowned and walked away.

"You sure are a feisty girl Kari…" Daisuke said.

"Is that suppose to be a compliment?" Kari hissed.

"Uhm no what I mean is…nice to meet you…I gotta go," Daisuke dashed toward Satoshi.

"Wow…I think they like you Kari," Takeshi said.

"I like them too. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine!" Kari said. "But are you sure they liked me? They looked a bit scared…You think I was too aggressive for them?" Takeshi shook his head.

"What do you mean? It was perfect!" Takeshi said to himself. "Just to teach them lessons for not bother try to steal you away from me…"

"Man…that girl….psshhhhh…she's off the hook but too snobby," Daisuke said.

"I…I…I've been rejected! For the first time! This is insane! I mean look at her! She's with Saehara! That's got to be the hottest girl he's ever been seen with! Are they together?" Satoshi asked.

"No…" Daisuke said.

"Good! I still have a chance…" Satoshi said.

"Aren't you forgetting something…" Daisuke said.

"No…" Satoshi responded.

"You can't get with her cause' the bet hasn't ended! Unless of course you want to bail out and loose your chance of being named 'The School's Babe Magnet' now would you?" Daisuke said. Satoshi took off his glasses and wiped the lenses.

"Not a chance Niwa…let's just hope Kari is still single after this bet. If she is…dibs on asking her out!" Satoshi said.

"Did you just hear that Risa?" Crystal asked.

"Hear what?" Risa said.

"Oh! That new girl is making the guys go crazy!" Crystal said.

"How?" Risa asked.

"They all want to ask her out! Even Satoshi! The guy you like!" Crystal shouted.

"Keep it down you fool!" Risa said.

"Oh sorry…" Crystal said.

"We'll just see about that…Let's organize a little meeting at your house…all the girls in our grade. Let's go against that wench. I'm not usually this mean but if anyone enters my territory…I have no choice…" Risa said.

"What about your sister…Satoshi digs her too? Why didn't you do anything about her?" Crystal asked.

"Because she's family and my best friend. I'm cutting her some slack since she's never had a guy who adores her. As long as she's a Harada I can't defy her. Besides…we have a family rule. 'If a guy falls in love with the oldest everyone who was up for grabs can't have the guy and they must be respected which means no interference.' So it's okay if it's Riku. Anyways she doesn't like him. She likes another guy…" Risa said.

"Is that really a rule?" Crystal asked.

"Well yeah but I sort of replaced some words cause' you wouldn't understand due to its strong vocabulary. But don't invite Riku. She's a friend of Kari…" Risa said.

"Hi girls!" Kari said appearing next to Risa. Crystal and Risa glared at her and left. "What's wrong with them…I just wanted to get to know them…"

"You're in their territory…" Riku said.

"What do you mean?" Kari asked.

"Don't you see every guy is staring at you?" Riku asked.

"Yeah…I'm new…every new student gets stared at. I'm use to it…I've been transferred to a lot of school due to my parent's jobs. To tell you the truth I never really made 'girl' friends…they're all guys…no girl talked to me in any of my school. You're the first…" Kari said.

"Oh…well you're my friend aren't you?" Riku said.

"What? You mean it?" Kari said.

"Well you announced it to the entire class…" Riku muttered.

"Oh yeah! Hehehehe…sorry bout' that..." Kari said.

"It's all right…" Riku said.

"Hey you want to come over my house?" Kari asked.

"What for?" Riku asked.

"I want to introduce you to my parents and my brothers…well actually you met one of them so I'll introduce you to my other one," Kari said.

"Other one…sure…I could probably fill you in on the assignments and projects we're doing in every class. I could also bring my yearbook and point out who's who. It'll be great…" Riku said.

"Then it's settled! Riku's coming over!" Kari said.

"Hey can I come too? I mean I live next door to you so can I?" Takeshi asked.

"Sure! The more the merrier!" Kari said.

"Can I bring a friend too?" Takeshi asked.

"Yeah sure…keep the number low," Riku said sarcastically.
