GYRAX Presents…
Awe of She
Chapter 11: She's a Jigsaw who Needs to be Solved
Kitsune opens the door and sneaks in unnoticed.
She creeps across Naru's room with a megaphone in her right hand, and she looks like she's going to use it. She takes a couple of minutes to silently and carefully walk up to the sleeping woman and she slowly put the megaphone in front of her face. Sweat runs down her forehead, as the fox gets ready for the kill.
"WAKE UP, NARU!"
The sudden angry burst of sound throws Naru off her futon, as if the mattress has a mind of its own. Naru crash lands on the ground, and her face serves as the emergency landing gear. She now lies there, motionless…
Now Kitsune is beginning to think that maybe she's overdone it a bit. She goes over to check up on her, to see if there are any vital signs. By the time she gets over to her, a foot lands right on her face, sending her out of the room. Naru handsprings back to life, and then she takes a second to glare at the fox that now lies twitching outside her room.
"AND DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!" Naru shouts at the top of her lungs. Though who would blame her for such a reaction? She was hit in the ear by a sonic boom as a means of some twisted form of a wake up call. She stomps with all her might into the bathroom with her clothes in her right hand.
Kitsune recovers and takes a look at the angry teething beast that is seemingly rampaging her way to the nearest restroom. "DAYAMN! I was just playing around! Now, I need to make a mental note to myself never to try that again." Kitsune sits on the floor and inputs that piece of self-advice into her brain. That's more information put in for the better.
(O)
"The nerve of Kitsune!" Naru complains. "I can't believe she had the gall to try that on me. Who the hell does she think I am?" She pauses for a second as something hits her in the head, seemingly paralyzing her. "Come to think of it, ever since Shinobu grew up, my life was a living hell. It was as if the moment she transformed that the world was turned against me."
Naru pauses again. She takes this time to put her shirt on. "It's like she put a spell on me the instant she changed so that I would have Keitaro's luck, so that I would be in his shoes-" Quickly, she cuts herself off, to think about what she said. The last few words reverberate in the narrow caverns that are the confines of her mind. With each echo, Naru begins to realize more and more about something, something she forgot a while ago.
"… So I would know how Keitaro feels." She freezes in her tracks, except for her head, which inside seems to be running even more frantically than before. This doesn't last long, as she reverts back to her normal self faster than a speeding bullet. "At least he deserves what he gets. And why would Shinobu even accept him? What did that perv do to deserve her? And why the hell do I feel like this? Part of me just wants to break them up, but the other doesn't. Am I jealous? I certainly can't be. I mean, why would I give a damn about that lecher, anyway? But still, I feel sick. Maybe that's the problem. Maybe I'm just sick and need to rest." She nods her head, agreeing with herself on this answer as she puts her skirt on. "That's it. I'll just go back to bed."
"GET THESE THOUGHTS OUT OF MY HEAD!" Cries a female voice, the voice getting louder and louder as it nears Naru. She couldn't help but to look outside and check on what's happening. Motoko happens to be approaching her, and before you know it, they crash into one another.
They both end up on the floor, rubbing their heads in attempt to make their bumps feel better. Naru couldn't help but wonder what is up with Motoko today.
"Something wrong?" Naru inquires.
"Ah…Nothing." Motoko replies. It isn't much of an answer for Naru.
"You were yelling something about thoughts." Naru replies.
"It's nothing," Motoko responds. "Really."
"Just be careful when running around the halls, ok?" Naru tells her.
"There you are." Kitsune says. She approaches the two, accompanied by a pretty amused Ayumi. Kitsune walks over to Naru, as she and Motoko stand back up. "What's up?"
"Another run of bad karma." Naru answers.
"Sorry to hear it." Kitsune replies. "Anyway, Ayumi said that Keitaro and Shinobu are already on a date at Cinema Village, and she wants to takes us along for the ride. You wannna come?"
Naru looks at her. "That would be spying on them-"
"Let's go, then!" Kitsune exclaims. After the two leave, chuckling their pretty faces off, Naru and Motoko sigh, irritation escaping in their breath.
Just after Kitsune and Ayumi leave into the foyer, they freeze in their tracks and look at one another. Then they turn back behind them and run back to the hallways. The foyer is now filled with silence; you could practically hear a pin drop in the room now, but it doesn't last long. The silence is quickly broken by two screaming voices. Kitsune and Ayumi come back into the foyer dragging Naru and Motoko, the two helpless girls screaming and struggling to break free but to no avail. Kitsune has Naru's feet in her grasp, and Ayumi has Motoko's. The two women dragging them smile as they have their little victims right where they want them.
Kitsune calls out. "Hey Su! We're leaving!"
"We're going to the cinema village!" Ayumi follows. "You want to come? We even have front row center to Kei-kun's date!"
"Coming!" Su exclaims. She comes jumping down the steps and into the foyer. "I'm all set to go!"
"Good to hear, my friend." Ayumi replies. She points towards the outside. "Onwards, to the date!" She and Kitsune continue dragging the screaming girls outside.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Naru screams. "NOT THE DATE! DON'T YOU GUYS HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR ANYONE'S PRIVACY?"
"WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS YOUR PROBLEM?" Motoko shouts.
"Don't bother." Ayumi smiles. "You won't get the logic. Just flow with the traffic."
"TO THE DATE!" Su exclaims with utmost enthusiasm. And with that, they all head outside.
(O)
"Can I talk to you about something, Sempai?" Shinobu asks her new ronin boyfriend, as the two of them stand at a wooden arch bridge, looking onwards to the creek they stand above.
"Sure," Keitaro replies. "What is it?"
"It's about Naru-sempai." Shinobu answers. "What's wrong with her?"
"I really don't know." Keitaro answers. "The poor girl had a run of very bad luck ever since you got older."
"Maybe I put a curse on her or something." Shinobu replies. "Maybe when I got angry at her, I accidentally put some kind of spell on her. At the same time, your luck is getting significantly better."
"You think you put a spell on me, too?" Keitaro says. "To protect me?"
"Maybe." The bluenette answers. "Maybe I put a spell on you to make your luck better. I really don't know, but that's all I could come up with. I'll have to talk to Dr. Ikeda about it."
"Remember what she said about that protect spell you put on me when we first met, the one that supposedly made me clumsy and terrible with women?" Keitaro asks. "Maybe that spell is starting to wear off now that we're here."
"Maybe that same spell might have been accidentally cast on Naru-sempai." Shinobu answers. "And now she's become really clumsy, and her luck has gone terrible, just like yours was."
"Either that," Keitaro replies. "Or it just happened at random because fate was tired of playing around with me."
"Who knows?" Shinobu says in response. "But this is a date, remember? We shouldn't waste the day running our mouths about this."
"I suppose so." Keitaro complies. "Now, where do we go next?"
"Dr. Ikeda told me about this new restaurant down the street." Shinobu answers. "They have thirty different lobster dishes there."
"Lead me to it." Keitaro replies. And with that, Shinobu literally drags him towards the streets. Not too far behind are Ayumi and the others. Naru and Motoko have duct tape over their mouths, and Kitsune is having a jolly old time carrying their helpless bodies. She, as well as Ayumi and Su, appear to be dressed as ninjas, and are following our lovebirds in the said fashion.
(O)
"Sorry, but you'll have to wait for at least a half an hour before we have a table ready for you." Says a hostess, apologizing to Keitaro and Shinobu.
"That's cool." Keitaro replies. "It's a Saturday, right?" He turns to Shinobu, who stands next to him, holding his right hand with her left. "You okay with that, Shinobu?"
"Yeah." The young woman replies. "Let's find a bench, Sempai." Shinobu takes Keitaro by the hands and drags him away.
(O)
The rest of the crew watches from the outside, Ayumi and Kitsune having the time of their lives, and Su eating a banana from the bunch she bought at the cinema Village. Naru and Motoko are untied at the moment, but that doesn't mean they're free; Ayumi is there to make sure they don't run, so basically the two women have to watch the date before them now. The good doctor is quite a forceful character.
"What do you suppose is going on here?" Kitsune asks.
"Hold on," Ayumi answers. She heads out towards another bush on the other side of the doorway to the restaurant. The others follow her, not asking a single question, but that doesn't mean they know what she's up to. Ayumi stops at the other bush and sees Keitaro and Shinobu through another window. After Kitsune and the others approach her, she turns to them with a sly grin in her face.
"What are you up to, Ayumi?" Kitsune asks playfully.
"Check this out," Ayumi answers. "I can read their minds from a distance. If you want, I can tell you guys exactly what they're thinking.
"You can do that?" Naru inquires.
"Yep." Ayumi replies. "It's basic magic, really. Observe."
"You can't do that!" Naru suddenly shouts out.
"What's the matter, Hun?" Ayumi responds.
"Like I want to know what that pervert is thinking!" Naru answers.
"I don't want any more disturbing thoughts in my head, either." Motoko adds.
"Count us in!" Kitsune and Su shout with utmost enthusiasm.
"Okay, I'll do it." Ayumi smiles. "That's three to two saying that I should do it."
"But it's a tie!" Naru protests. "Two said yes and two said no!"
"But you didn't count in MY vote." Ayumi replies. And with that, Naru and Motoko sigh in defeat. Those three are just hopeless, aren't they?
(O)
Ayumi's duffel bag lies on the floor of the foyer, sitting there motionless, waiting for its owner to return; one thing that seems odd here, is that the bag's zipper appears to be opening itself up. A closer look confirms that it IS opening itself. After the bag is completely open, Beardie suddenly pops out of nowhere. It turns out that it was Beardie who opened the zipper from the inside, quite a difficult task one may say. He hurries out of the bag, his nostrils letting off steam like nobody's business.
"DAMMIT, AYU-KUN!" Beardie shouts out. The steam is practically his rage. "I TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES NOT TO LEAVE ME IN THAT GOD-FORSAKEN DUFFLE BAG!" He looks around to see that no one is around, except for Aethra and Kenpachi, who heard the shouting a few seconds ago.
"Ayumi went outside with our visitors." Shinobu's mother replies.
"Figures." Beardie sighs. He scuttles outside on a search for his partner.
(O)
"Here we go." Ayumi says. He puts her right index and middle fingers on her right temple and points her left ones towards Keitaro and Shinobu. She's obviously attempting to read both their minds.
"Everyone be quiet, now." Kitsune whispers. "Ayumi needs absolute concentration."
Ayumi closes her eyes after everyone falls silent. Naru and Motoko would be shouting with all their might, but their mouths are covered in duct tape, and Motoko most likely has higher standards than that.
(O)
"Finally," Keitaro sighs. "We have a seat."
"What do you want, Sempai?" Shinobu asks.
"I don't know." Keitaro answers. "Probably something cheap; I'm on a fixed budget."
"I doubt we'll find anything cheap here." Shinobu replies. "We chose a pretty expensive place. Did you forget how much it cost to get a eat here?"
"Damn," Keitaro sighs again. "You have a point, Shinobu. Just let me find my credit card." He digs deep within his pockets, only to come to a shocking revelation. I forgot my credit card!
(O)
Ayumi could only giggle like a schoolgirl after hearing that. "Don't worry, Hun. I'll get it for you." She draws a circle in the air and closes her eyes. In an instant, a card appears out of thin air. It falls to her right hand.
"Cool." Kitsune says.
"Well," Ayumi replies. "Keitaro forgot his credit card, so I took the liberty of retrieving it for him."
"But wouldn't that reveal our location?" Kitsune asks.
"Not if we're swift enough." Ayumi answers. She holds the card between her two fingers and throws it through the window, completely shattering it on the fly.
(O)
Something suddenly flies and lodges itself on the table; the speed of the object freaks Keitaro out.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Keitaro screams. "SHURIKEN!"
After hearing that, everyone at the restaurant goes into panic mode and flees from the place, knocking down tables and chairs, and throwing everything into disarray.
"Sempai!" Shinobu cries out. "We need to get out of here!"
"No, wait a second." Keitaro says. He looks at the object lodged onto the table. He picks it up and identifies it quickly. "How did my credit card get here?"
"IS THAT WHAT IT WAS?" Shinobu screams. "SEMPAI! YOU SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME! YU MADE ME THINK NINJAS WERE ATTACKING US!"
"I'm sorry!" Keitaro pleads. "Just let me put this credit card away so we can leave."
"Damn," Shinobu complains. "We'll have to find another place for lunch."
"I didn't think this was a good lunch place, anyhow." Keitaro adds.
(O)
"I FOUND THEM!" A kid shouts out, pointing to Ayumi and the others, who are still hiding in the bushes. "I FOUND THE NINJAS!"
"Great job, Ayumi!" Kitsune shouted. "Now everyone knows where we are!" And with that, a crowd surrounds them. The crowd grows big quick, so now the group has nowhere to go.
"We're surrounded!" Naru cries out. "And we're not even part of this!" She's referring to Motoko and herself.
Kitsune whispers in Ayumi's ear. "You know any hocus pocus that can get us out of here?"
"I can make pigs fly." Ayumi answers.
"Cool," Kitsune replies. "Do it."
"Right-o." Ayumi complies. She looks at the crow of people in front of her, and then she points at the sky. "Look up there!" A few people actually look up, and to their surprise, a few hogs with wings are taking flight above them. This puts them into a state of unadulterated panic.
"FLYING PIGS!" One of the crowd goers screams. Everyone looks up, and the flying porkers toss them all into the same dimension of panic.
"IT'S THE APOCALYPSE!" Another one of the crowd goers shouts. Then, the entire crowd completely disperses.
"I can't see what's going on!" Keitaro shouts, trying to get past the panicking populous. "Shinobu! Where are you?"
"You're holding on to my hand, Sempai!" Shinobu answers.
"Oh," Keitaro replies. "Well, let's get the hell out of here!" But before he makes a move, more people trample him. The onslaught of feet pounds his face into absolute disfigurement. He now lies on the ground, black and blue all over.
"Sempai!" Shinobu cries out. "I'll get us out of here!"
"Looks like we gotta run ourselves before the lovebirds spot us!" Ayumi says. With that, she picks up the other girls and carries them, as she runs at quite an inhuman speed, creating a trail of dust at her wake, and another trail of screaming girls, the screams mainly coming from Naru and Motoko.
(O)
"Thanks, Shinobu." Keitaro says, as Shinobu finishes up with her healing spell. The two are standing in front of a wall near a restroom.
"No problem, Sempai." Shinobu replies. "It's a good thing I remembered my spells, or it would take weeks for your face to recover. I guess your bad karma hasn't worn off completely."
"Yeah," Keitaro replies. He turns to Shinobu, with a smile on his face. "Now that my face is okay, I'd like to show you something."
"Sure, Sempai." Shinobu responds. "What is it?"
"Come with me. You'll love it." Keitaro takes her hand and drags her along with him.
(O)
"Where the hell did they go?" Kitsune asks.
"You want me to track them down?" Ayumi replies. "I can pick up their aura from here, and we'll be back to ninja spying in no time."
"Sweet!" Kitsune replies. "Knock yourself out."
"I already found them!" Su exclaims. She points towards Keitaro and Shinobu, who are standing at the arch bridge that they were at earlier.
"Cool." Kitsune responds. "Now we need to find another bush to hid in."
"Here." Ayumi smiles. She points towards another bush, which is right next to the bridge. The others jump into it and seemingly disappear out of sight.
Shinobu stands on the bridge, dressed in one of the most beautiful blue kimonos out there. It literally drags on the floor it's so long; her sleeves are also long, as you can't even see her hands unless she raises an arm. Keitaro, however, is dressed in more western attire; his suit is black with a white button shirt underneath, and a red tie. For decoration, he's also wearing a monocle and a top hat.
"Thanks for the kimono, Sempai." Shinobu says. "It's nice."
"Well, I just rented our outfits." Keitaro replies. "We only have a couple hours left until we have to return them."
"That's ok." Shinobu says in response. "So what should e do, now?"
"I don't know." Keitaro answers. "I was suggesting that maybe we could take pictures. There's a photo booth nearby here, isn't there?"
"I get it." Shinobu replies. "It's that hobby of yours, isn't it? Don't worry; I'm cool with it. Besides, we'd look great with these new outfits on."
"Great," Keitaro says in response. "Hold on. I think I have a pebble in my shoes." Keitaro tries to take the shoe off his left foot, but his bad luck isn't really gone yet, so he trips on his one foot and sends himself on a collision course with Shinobu. His lips quickly meet hers, and they kiss.
A shock runs right through Naru's heart. They're kissing!
"Damn! Did you see that?" Kitsune says. "Slick move, Keitaro."
"I'm not seeing this!" Motoko whines, covering her eyes an averting herself away. Su isn't even taking it seriously, judging by her silly expression of enthusiasm.
Naru, on the other hand, stands there like a marble statue that's about to crack. Inside her head, however, is a literal disaster zone, as thought run around her head like a stampede of panicking citizens running from a rampaging Godzilla.
There it is again! That feeling! Why won't it go away?
Why the hell do I care? I don't even like him.
Actually, I like him a little bit, but not that way.
I don't even like him!
Stop kissing her!
Go ahead and continue your little tongue-slap for all I care!
There it is again! That feeling! Why won't it go away?
When did these feelings come? What did he do to me? He doesn't deserve any affection from me?
I want him.
He's a pervert, and perverts deserve their own room in Hell!
But there's something about him.
No, there isn't! He's just a voyeuristic son of a bitch!
There it is again! That feeling! Why won't it go away?
I have to stop them, now! I can't let them do this!
No, I shouldn't! I'll just leave them there and let them continue their stupid perverted games!
I want him.
I don't want him.
I…
In that instant, something hits her head.
You're so wishy-washy, that you weren't able to tell him yourself; you didn't even want to. I, on the other hand, had the courage to tell him right there and then that I love him, and to show affection for him directly, no less. If you truly loved Sempai, you would've confessed to him, long ago, but as it stands, it is far too late. He's mine, now. Sorry if I made you feel like crap right now, but part of me was begging to say that.
Shinobu, you little brat! Why did you have to turn out like that! Why did you have to say that to me! WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?
Ironically, after minutes of indecisiveness and playing the rope for an internal tug-of-war, she runs from the bush that the group was hiding in and takes off without second thought.
"Naru?" Kitsune says. "Where in God's name are YOU going?"
"This isn't good." Ayumi interjects. "I sensed a strong conflict in Naru's head. I think it may have driven her crazy."
"Follow her!" Kitsune shouts. And with that, the others chase down Naru, only to find out that she has disappeared without a trace.
"Where do you think she went?" Motoko asks.
"I'll try to track her down." Ayumi answers. She closes her eyes for a moment. The others look at her closely as she focuses her energy and steadily increases her concentration. Her mind travels the town, looking for the auburn-haired young woman who just ran from the scene. Within minutes, she finds the girl and she opens her eyes. She turns to the others.
"Naru's in the restroom right next to us." Ayumi says. Everyone practically face faults.
"Then, why the hell are we here?" Kitsune says as she stands back up. "We need to get her, now!" Before they make a move, however, Naru suddenly dashes out of the bathroom in Edo-period samurai gear. For a second, the group's puzzled, but the next second they revert back to normal and run after her.
(O)
Keitaro breaks free from their lip lock and gasps for air. "Sorry about that, Shinobu."
"That's all right, Sempai." Shinobu replies. "But you could've asked me to look in your shoe for any pebbles."
"Well hopefully, that will stay behind us." Keitaro says. "I'll just sit down and take my shoe off."
"You do that, Sempai." Shinobu complies. Suddenly, something clicks in her head, telling her to look behind. By the time she turns around, Naru comes running towards her at full speed, with her fist pulled all the way back. Shinobu then realizes that something's amiss.
HOLY CRAP IN A PITA! SHE'S AIMING THAT FIST AT ME!
Naru throws her fist at her, ushering in her mightiest punch yet, but Shinobu quickly sees it coming and opens her palm to block it. The sheer force of Naru's attack, however, creates a shockwave, which radiates throughout a five-meter radius. Naru quickly jumps back after the failed assault.
"Naru-sempai!" Shinobu cries out.
"Umm…Shinobu?" Naru says, trying to get a sentence out, but she couldn't let herself come around to it.
"What was that for?" Shinobu demands. "Were you trying to kill me?"
"No, I just…" Naru trails off, again not able to complete the sentence.
"Naru?" Shinobu asks again.
"Well, you shouldn't have…I mean, you can't do that stuff in public!" Naru struggles to keep her composure.
"It was an accident." Shinobu replies, in attempt to clear things up with her.
"Don't…" Naru trails off. She looks at Keitaro. "You pervert! Why did you have to…"
"Naru?" Keitaro is the next to ask. "Why did you attack Shinobu when I was the one who did it?"
This hits Naru hard in the head. "I don't know. I…"
"You're not jealous, are you Naru-sempai?" Shinobu says. She realizes that maybe that wasn't exactly the best thing to say.
"I…" Naru trails off, but in her head, she's screaming. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME? WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN, NOW?
"Are you in love with Sempai, or not?" Shinobu demands.
"What?" Keitaro jumps at the sound of that.
"Well?" Shinobu demands again.
"I…" Naru trails off again. Then, she runs.
"What the hell?" Keitaro says, shocked at the girl's sudden decision.
"Naru-sempai, come back!" Shinobu cries out, but it doesn't reach her.
"Not good!" Ayumi says.
Keitaro and Shinobu notice the group and their eyes become circles.
"WHA-YOU GUYS ARE HERE, TOO?" Keitaro shouts at the top of his lungs.
"Sorry about the spying thing." Kitsune answers. "But we shouldn't think about that, damn it! We have someone to catch!"
"There you are, Ayu-kun!" A voice shouts from the distance. Ayumi turns, but sees no one. Then she feels something crawl on her shoulder. She jumps for a second, but turns to her right shoulder and sees that it's just Beardie latching on to her.
"What's up?" The woman asks, like nothing ever happened.
Beardie suddenly squeezes her right cheek. "How many times did I ask you not to leave me in that God-forsaken Duffle bag?"
"Sorry about that." Ayumi answers. "But now isn't the time. We have to catch Naru."
"What is it?" Beardie asks.
"She ran off." Ayumi replies. "She couldn't take the internal conflict in her, so she ran."
"Hurry up, or we'll ditch you!" Kitsune shouts out.
"Coming!" Ayumi follows the others in their chase, their mission to bring Naru back.
(O)
Naru, on the other hand, is hiding behind a gift shop a quarter of a mile away. In this spot, she has a moment to collect her thoughts, which there isn't much at the moment.
"Is that it?" Naru asks herself. "A mindless decision to try and take out Shinobu and then run from the scene? I wasn't even thinking when I did it, either. And to make it even worse, those little 'lovebirds' try to pressure me and complicate everything. What the hell is wrong with them? Why am I such a coward, anyway? Where did it all come from? Maybe that idiot Keitaro rubbed off on me. Damn it!"
She slaps her forehead. "God, this sucks!"
To be continued.
Please review and tell me what you think.
Coming up next chapter…
100 Yen Coin
Naru continues to run from the Keitaro and the rest of the harem, and at the same time, she tries to collect the pieces of herself that have broken off at the Cinema village. What the rest of the group doesn't expect, however, is a challenge to duel with Shinobu. And the challenge is from Naru herself. How will things turn out from here? Will Naru ever return to her old self? Will she accept Shinobu and Keitaro's love and recognize the fact that this is a romance meant to be, or will her own feelings turn her on them?
This fic has seventy three hundred and fifty-one hits, and one hundred and thirty five reviews, and in only ten chapters? HOO-RAH!
MESSAGE: To anyone reading this, can you tell me about all the Tokyo U exams by the individual exam's name, the date each one is taken, and the overall description of the exam and the relevance it holds to entering Tokyo U? I don't know a thing about the Tokyo U exams and I really need to if I expect to continue this story, because as it stands, the fic right now is still taking place in August.
Until next chapter, Ciao!
