I awoke early the next morning.This day was the 'Saturday' everyone got so excited about.I stretched my arms wide and stood up to get my legs moving.I was about to go scrounging for some food when a wicked smell assaulted my nostrils.It bore a striking resemblance to a dying animal.Except this dying animal had been soaked in pool water.After contemplating this conundrum for a moment I realized the source of the odor.Me.
I hadn't taken a bath in a multitude of days.No wonder I reeked.I actively decided to search for the bathroom.Tomo wasn't awake yet,so I was on my own.I walked one complete revolution around the center of the house before realizing I had passed the bathroom some time ago.I returned to the room and flipped the lightswitch near the door.Illuminated,the bathroom was a while tiled haven.I closed the door quietly behind me and disrobed.I pulled back the shower curtain and twisted the knob mounted on the wall.The shower head above sputtered then began to spew hot liquid water into the tub.I sighed with contentment.It had been awhile since I had had a hot shower.I stepped into the deluge and let the water wash away my stink.I managed to recover from my euphoria enough to apply soap to my body and fully wash away all trace of unholy stench.I washed my hair just to make sure every pointon my body was clean as could be.As I stepped out I realized that now I smelled like a Rondo flower and not a species of ape.Oh,how I adored it.My clothes still stunk.I picked up my garments and thrust them under the running water of the shower head.I rubbed soap into the fabric and washed my robe,pants,underpants,and undershirt clean.Now I was ready for a night on the town with ten good looking women.Like that would ever happen.
Regardless,I wrung my clothes dry,put myself into those aforementioned clothes and opend the door only to come face to face with good ol' Tomo.
"Morning,Prior!Hope ya didn't break my shower!",she said,excited and energetic even at this early hour.
"It's fine.Don't worry about it.",I told her,"I do smell like a Rondo flower though"
"I have no idea what that is!",she said happily and pushed past me and into the bathroom.The door clunked shut behind me.I walked to the kitchen to await her return.After a very short period of time she emerged wet and dressed.
"You took a shower that quickly?",I asked.
"Yep!It's a specialty of mine.",she pronounced haughtily.
"Excellent.I hope good breakfast food is a specialty of yours too.",I smirked.
"Everything I make is good.",she said as she ruffled through the cabinet,looking for food.She pulled out a box with a picture of a fluffy pastry-like object on it.
"Pancakes?",she asked.
"Sure.",I said,assuming pancakes were good.I didn't pay much attention to the cooking process.I probably should have because when she served them up to me it was like heaven exploded in my mouth.
"Jynark's Nailclippers.",I said with a mouth full of the fluffy,syrup coated objects,"This is stupendous"
"Told you I was a good cook!",she said triumphantly and gulped down her own plate of the circular food.
As she finished her last piece of the scrumptious food the telephone rang.A quick multi-bleep sound.Tomo leaped out of her seat to pick it up.
"'Ello?",she said,"Really? Sounds awesome!I'll hit up 'ol Yukari-baby for a ride to take me and Prior.Yea,I know where it is.Awesome!See ya there!",she concluded and hung up the reciever with a click.
"That was Osaka.We're gonna go to Chiyo-chan's beach house for the day!",she said with a cheer.
"Alright..",I said with an attempt at enthusiasm.The thing was,it would be nice to hang out...as long as I don't have to swim.It's embarassing to say,but I never learned how to swim.
"I'll let you borrow my dad's swim trunks!",she announced happily.
"Sure...",I said.Didn't want to admit I couldn't swim.Maybe I would just have to wade.
"I'ma go get ready!",she said and bolted away.
I scratched my head and stood up from my chair.As I waited for her I idly wondered what her and Yomi had done after I had screamed bloody murder and left.No,I didn't think like a pervert.I was just..thinking...curiously.Tomo came tearing back into the room dressed in loose fitting pants and a shirt.She tossed me a pair of blue swim trunks and dashed over to the phone.
"We gotta see if we can get a ride with Yukari.She's a terrible driver,but she'll do for now.",she told me and picked up the reciever to dial.
"YUKARI-BABAY!",she yelled into the phone,"Me and Prior need a ride to Chiyo-chan's beach house.Awww c'mon.You can come,I don't care.Mhmm.Just don't get us killed!Cya in a bit!",she said and hung up.
"Heheh.She must be one hell of a driver.",I said.
"She is!She almost ran over three old women one time!",she told me excitedly."Another time she almost crashed into a parked car"
"Sounds safe"
"Nah.Not at all!It's kinda fun though...c'mon!",she said and dragged me out the front door by my arm.
As we awaited Miss Yukari I noticed Tomo grinning happily while I,on the other hand,had an expression of almost certain fear.
"Oh,before I forget...",I said as I dug my device out of my right pocket."Any idea why it's not working?",I asked Tomo as I shoved it into her hands.
She flipped the unworking lump over in her hands,squinting at the details.
"No idea.",she concluded and handed it back to me.
I returned the device to it's prison within my robe and thought,"Of course she doesn't know"
The screeching of tires could be heard moments before a dark blue car rounded the corner and practically parked on the sidewalk before us.
Miss Yukari stuck her head out the window,"Get in!",she snarled.
We did not question this woman.I knew what horrors she could posess and I was not about to cross her.Tomo hopped in the front seat and grinned widely at Yukari as I took my place in the back behind Tomo.
"Buckle up in case we hit anything.",Yukari said calmly as she peeled out on the sidewalk before rocketing down the street.As we rolled far too quickly down the residential streets Yukari glowered and flipped on the radio.
"It was too damn quiet!",she protested.
I decided it was better to focus on the radio and not Yukari's lack of driving ability.
"Special bulletin.",the woman on the radio announced,"Two more murders bring the killer's total to six.Two men were found dead from horrible wounds in a downtown Tokyo alleyway.Witnesses described the killer as 'Gigantic and seeming to wear a bright red armour with horns'.Police are still searching for this mysterious serial killer"
If the woman said anything more I didn't hear it.My mouth was agape and my mind was racing.I knew who the killer was...and it was my fault he is where he is.
"Yukari.",I said,"Stop the car.Pull over"
"What!Geez..",she protested as she brought the vehicle to a bumpy stop on the side of the road.
"Ok! What's the matter?",Yukari frowned and give me an icy glare.
"Tomo,remember how I said I was on a mission to find a dangerous man"
Tomo nodded,her mouth open in surprise.
"That killer...he is the man I'm looking for"
"Really?Wow!Can I help?",Tomo screamed in excitement.
"No,no.",I waved her enthusiasm away,"I have to find him myself.I need to go to downtown Tokyo.This is my mission"
Yukari stared daggers at me.
"Fine!I'm not responsible if you die or anything!Remember that!",Yukari said as she rolled once more onto the road.
"He'll be fine!He's an angel!",Tomo cheered.
I sat in silence in the rear seat of the car as we rolled towards Tokyo proper.I simply thought of how serious this situation was and how I shall fix it.Yukari leaned over the wheel and screamed obscenities at other drivers.Tomo couldn't sit still.
"Oh boy!Prior is gonna be a hero!",Tomo wiggled with excitement.
"He better be a hero...taking all this time outta my beach time.",Yukari mumbled.
I was in awe at the tremendous city as we entered it.Yukari pulled over to the curb and said,"Get out and don't mess up"
"Good luck,Prior!",Tomo practically yelled into my face.
"I'll be fine.",I grinned as I got out of the vehicle and was glad to set foot upon solid ground."Go have fun at the beach and...",I gulped,"don't worry about me"
I waved as the car screeched away into the distance.
I had a strange feeling that I wouldn't have to find him.He would find me.
I hadn't taken a bath in a multitude of days.No wonder I reeked.I actively decided to search for the bathroom.Tomo wasn't awake yet,so I was on my own.I walked one complete revolution around the center of the house before realizing I had passed the bathroom some time ago.I returned to the room and flipped the lightswitch near the door.Illuminated,the bathroom was a while tiled haven.I closed the door quietly behind me and disrobed.I pulled back the shower curtain and twisted the knob mounted on the wall.The shower head above sputtered then began to spew hot liquid water into the tub.I sighed with contentment.It had been awhile since I had had a hot shower.I stepped into the deluge and let the water wash away my stink.I managed to recover from my euphoria enough to apply soap to my body and fully wash away all trace of unholy stench.I washed my hair just to make sure every pointon my body was clean as could be.As I stepped out I realized that now I smelled like a Rondo flower and not a species of ape.Oh,how I adored it.My clothes still stunk.I picked up my garments and thrust them under the running water of the shower head.I rubbed soap into the fabric and washed my robe,pants,underpants,and undershirt clean.Now I was ready for a night on the town with ten good looking women.Like that would ever happen.
