Mari had been talking on her phone when she heard someone coming near her, "Hold on really quick here he comes now."
"Hey Miss Mari if you don't hurry you'll be late for class!" Kenshin shouted and waved from the door.
Mari put on a fake smile, "Okay be there in a minute!" She rolled her eyes when she saw him leave, "Okay I have to hurry what is it?" She listened quietly as the voice on the other line talked. After a few minutes she smirked, "I see so that's who they are. I would love to toy with one of them, who should I start out with? The nice, polite red head? The stupid, funny kung-foo guy, or the serious pyro?" The voice on the other line spoke again, Mari's smirk became wider, "Got it talk to you later." With that little matter settled she put her phone away and walked to her first class, chemistry.
When Mari got there she was about 20 minutes late. She was greeted by Kenshin and the others. "Well you missed the rules and all that jazz but the teacher isn't going to start classes until tomorrow so we have the rest of the hour to talk." Sano told her.
Mari looked over joyed, "Oh wow I was hoping to get to know you guys better, and now it seems we have the time." She sat in one of the desks by Kaoru.
"So what would you like to know about us Miss Mari?" Kenshin asked.
"Well um...what's all your friends personalities like?"
Megumi smirked, "Well if you want to know about Sano and Shishio they annoy the living hell out of each other...even though their best friends. I mean just look at them over there." She said pointing in the direction they were standing in. Mari looked at Sanosuke and Makoto fighting over something stupid.
"You know it wasn't that hard to get a working lighter Sano."
"Well I got that stupid thing from Saito."
"I needed it for my sword training since I ran out of gun powder."
"Don't blame it on me you know I hate that stupid jackass you pyromaniac!"
"Hey! My fire has saved your ass so many times I lost count!"
"Yeah right the one time you nearly burnt my butt off!"
"Oh you could bitch about everything couldn't you!" Shishio shouted.
From across the room Megumi shook her head, "See what I mean?" Mari nodded her head slightly.
Yumi turned her head to now see Sano and her boyfriend screaming random things that didn't make sense, at each other. She took her hand and slapped her face dragging it down.
Mari blinked, "What's wrong with Yumi?"
Misao nearly laughed, "Oh she's okay it's just she's the one that hears them argue most of the time. You see Megumi works at a medical clinic, I train, Kaoru has students to teach such as Yahiko she also does house work too. Yumi does alot of house work but she can't fight so when she's done she goes in the woods where Kenshin and the others train and watches them. Usually Sanosuke and Shishio have a stupid shouting match."
"I can tell."
"You wanna start something rooster head!"
"I'm not a rooster palm tree boy!" Sanosuke shouted.
"Oh my god you annoy the living hell out of me!"
"You wanna go?"
"Yeah I'll take you out right now!"
"Bring it!"
The others sweatdropped. Before they knew it the bell rang and it was second hour. Time for P.E. Yumi wasn't thrilled at all about this class she hated it. She hated it with a passion. She tied her shoes and grabbed her hair tie putting it in a poneytail. She walked out of the locker room to find Mari talking to Makoto. Her eyes narrowed what could this new girl possibly want with her Shishio. Yumi never liked the girl, from the moment she met her she got bad vibes. Really bad vibes. She saw Makoto laugh, she frowned. She walked past without saying a word to either of them.
Shishio just stared at her, "What the hell is her problem?" He shook his head he never understood woman...and probably never would. Mari turned in the other direction and smirked everything was going exactlly the way she wanted it too. She would get the couples to fight, and would have all four men wrapped around her finger. Of course she had to get the nice one and the wooden sword trainer together and also the stupid kung-foo guy and the medical woman together but that might prove to be quite difficult.
After they went over all the rules, Makoto went over to talk to Yumi. She glared up at him, "What do you want?"
"Why'd you leave without saying anything after you came out of the locker room?"
"Why were you and that Mari girl talking?"
"She was just asking about sword training and everything."
"How'd she find out you were a samurai?"
Shishio thought about it for a moment, "Kenshin probably told her."
"Yeah that's a lame excuse."
"What is wrong with you?" He asked getting irritated.
She stood up abruptly, "Jerk." With that she walked off. I guess she was really mad about the whole smiling thing. Even Makoto didn't smile around her often, and having a new girl come and make him smile right off the back just pissed her off.
Mari watched as Yumi walked away in a huff and Shishio walk back to Kenshin and Sano pissed off as ever. Things were just getting worse and worse and she was enjoying every minute of it. Her cell phone rang, she quickly ran into the bathroom and answered it, "Yeah? Heh yes it's going just the way we wanted it too. Yeah his girlfriend is totally pissed." Mari was chatting away quietly. She never notice a young random girl listening to her. Mari twisted a piece of her long blonde hair around her finger, "So we go onto plan B right? Okay I'll make sure to get of his girlfriend. What's her name you ask? Yumi Kommagata."
The young girl outside the stall gasped. Mari heard the girl, "Hold on." She whispered. She put down her phone and grabbed one of her kunai's from her bag. She exited the stall without the girls knowing. The girl turned around and gasped she backed up until her back hit the sink.
Mari smiled evily, "I'm really sorry your pathetic life had to end this way, but since you listened to my conversation I'm afraid you'll have to die." The girl never got another word in as the kunai was driven into her stomach. The girl fell to the floor in a pool of her own blood. Mari smirked and wiped off the kunai. She went back in the stall and grabbed her phone, "Yes the intruder was taken care of. Okay I'll let you know how it goes. Ta-ta love." She walked out of the locker room. Aoshi Shinomori walked out of the boys locker room, seeing Mari walking briskily away. His eyes narrowed, something wasn't right.
About two hours later all the girls were in the locker room, the police were there and everything.
"Oh that poor girl." Kaoru said turning away from the scene. They all walked out to find the boys standing there.
"What's all the fuss?" Asked Sano leaning up against the wall for support.
"Someone stabbed a student, apparently she knew Yumi." Megumi commented. Mari stiffened at her sentence.
"What does that have to do with anything?"
"Who knows maybe she was going to warn someone and didn't get to far."
The others walked off Mari stood there staring after them, Aoshi came up beside her. She looked down and asked, "Why would someone want to kill someone like that just because she was going to tell a friend?"
Aoshi glared at her, "I know you killed her."
Mari stared at him wide eyed, "What! I would never take another person's life!"
"That anger it shows in your eyes. Your anger tells me clearly, that your not all you say you are. Am I right?"
Mari gritted her teeth the inside of her was burning with rage, "This man...this man is toying with me."
"I know what your trying to do." He said brushing past her. He stopped, "Oh and if you touch Misao...you'd be risking your life." He said warningly with a hint of venom in his voice. He walked off before she got to say another word.
Mari punched the wall to let out all her anger. Forget their first plan. She had to get rid of someone. That person she had to get rid of was Aoshi Shinomori.
