Chapter Eight: All Over A Broken Instrument…Going To The Entertainment Sections Amusement Park
Pirika shot him a death glare. His response was an immediate head turn away and that look of 'I-am-much-superior-to-you' which made her fingers curl and eyes blaze. Even Anna was feeling a bit nervous at Pirika's acts. Her max anger level…was well and truly reached.
Chocolove had made a random joke when Jun had said Ryu's hair gel smelt extremely bad, making Ryu mope around. Before Anna in all her mood swinging glory got to him, Ren glanced at Pirika and the latter got up and began to briskly storm away; when bypassing the African American also promptly grabbing his hair and dragging him out of the room with her. There was a tense silence afterward, before everyone's eyes accusingly went to Ren.
He shuddered under everyone's gaze and then turned accusingly to Jun, who shrugged and smiled sweetly at Ryu, who blushed and whipped out the guitar Ren had bought for Pirika. This brought out the wild side in Ren and before the motorbike man could sing and badly play another song he thought up as he played (God have mercy) Ren silenced him abruptly, knocking him out. When he tried to take the guitar from Ryu, his arms tightened around it, like in those movies when the dead body holds onto something dear. Ren finally gave off and slumped off somewhere, making Tamao sigh and Anna and Jukio roll their eyes. The two had that in common; and they also seemed to do it at the exact same time when they were in the same place together.
Now the female Ainu was glaring at Ren again and he wasn't exactly aiding the situation with that smug air about him, so that's when Anna, annoyed Pirika was freaking her out and that Tao males were snobbish quite a lot of the time, decided to formulate a plan…which wouldn't result in someone nearly drowning.
"Right people," Anna said in a matter of fact tone when people had gathered for the 'meeting', "what are we gonna do to stop these baka's from not speaking to each other and fighting?"
Yoh, who was sitting next to her, looking dazed and out of tune, gave Anna a lopsided grin.
"Are we talking about oranges?"
"No Yoh."
"Funga funga fuu."
"Wasn't it Funga fuu fuu?"
"Anna?"
"Yes Jun?"
"I'll go all giddy later about the fact you've memorised your fiancés sayings, but for the time being can we focus on my obstinate brother and future sister in law?" Jun asked, flashing Anna a small smile. Jeanne sighed and decided to contribute, due to the fact Anna's face was red and the initial shock of the claim had not sunk through yet.
"Something fun…"
"If you even mention the word 'fun' Pirika will have your head." Ryoi interjected.
Anna rolled her eyes.
"Any ideas then commando?"
"Yes! I only need fifty million yen, a tank, helicopter, water…"
"…What about a thrilling place?" Tamao piped up.
"…Fire extinguishers, fire, a tarantula…"
"A fun and thrilling place," Jun said thoughtfully, "Ok, let's think!" While Ryoi rabbitted on about his ingenious plan and the others looked like they were in deep thought, Yoh yawned and stretched out his aching limbs, grabbing the morning's newspaper and flicking to the funny page.
"Today preferably, my luxurious hair is curling because of all this drama."
"I thought you didn't care about Pirika Jukio?"
"Well Manta, like I said quite clearly, my straight hair is very sensitive you see…"
"Gah!" Anna exclaimed, whacking her hand to her forehead, "This is getting nowhere!" Yoh, seeming to hear what was going on from the sound of his beloved's voice, put the newspaper down and grinned at her.
"Take her and Ren to the amusement park." He stated cheerfully. Everyone in the room turned to him questioningly. Anna raised her eyebrow.
"What park?"
"Here," Yoh said, pointing to a page on the newspaper, "there's an article here." All the heads turned to where the paper was lying, pages being buffeted from the wind that swept in from the open window. Anna's eyes widened curiously.
"The grand opening of the Entertainment sections amusement park. Fun rides to thrill you and tons of fun things to eat and buy. Come now, today, for the adventure that can possibly be the very big room next to you if you are based in the entertainment section. Costs ten yen per person for one whole day plus five yen for fast passes." Anna read aloud, staring blankly at the paper. Yoh smiled at her reaction.
"Quite cheap." Tamao commented, resisting the urge to whack Ryoi, who was now explaining the fundamentals of his plan. Jun and Jukio nodded.
"My brother and Pirika will be paired up of course."
"And I will not be bothered by Pirika."
"Wow," Manta said in awe, "this place really is big…"
"Well duh…daddy-kins built it to be big and you did get lost…"
"You said you wouldn't tell anyone!"
"Well, you shouldn't have brought it up short stack."
"I'm three inches taller than you."
"Don't remind me," The girl huffed, "that Ryu guy nearly squashed me and the excuse was he couldn't see me…"
"Wow Yoh, you actually…actually…helped out with something." Anna remarked in an amazed tone, surprise evident on her face. Said person grinned happily that he impressed Anna and proceeded to grab her shoulders and pull her towards him. Letting out a squeal, Anna found herself on his lap, looking like a very cute and surprised child. Covering her mouth and angered at her persistent squeals, Anna blushed dimly, glaring at anyone who gave them speculative glances. "Before you get any ideas Yoh…just 'cause of that 'event' yesterday, don't expect me to forgive you for not trusting me…"
"You mean the kiss?" He countered simply, grinning from ear to ear.
Everyone swerved around, disbelief on their faces to see Anna sitting where Yoh had previously been seated, head bowed, head in hands, fingers pushing blonde strands astray, face appearing to be absolutely red and the shape of a human being flying through the glass doors suddenly appearing.
Jukio frowned.
"Don't expect me to pay for it Anna. Just 'cause you're my friend…you should think of the consequences before chucking Yoh through the glass, but I have to admit on a lighter note…you have quite an arm. You go girl!"
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"What happened to your brain now Asakura? I AM NOT GOING TO SOME RIDICULOUS AMUSEMENT PURPOSED PLACE WITH…WITH…HER!"
"Oh come on Ren," Yoh pleaded, "she'll stop glaring at you."
"I don't give about that." He stated gruffly, Yoh noticing the sad twinge in Ren's eyes, grinned devilishly.
"Fine then…she can go with Makazin Hota." He stifled a laugh when he saw Ren's body abruptly stiffen. He felt a tad scared when the Tao turned to him, eyes blazing.
"Pardon me?"
"Ahh…"
"So this Hota person thinks he can take Pirika! Well I'll show him! I agree!"
"Any particular reason this has upset you?"
At the question, it was Ren's turn to blush just as Anna had and Yoh wondered if he would be thrown through something else, but hoped he would not.
"HoroHoro will blame me if this guy molests Pirika so I have to guard the whiny brat…"
"…Whom you love?"
"…R…Ryoi's courting Anna!" Yoh's eyes widened and gritting his teeth and stomped off, leaving Ren to crouch down and regain normal breathing. He sighed in the wake of the destruction a mad Yoh had made. "Sometimes it's bad he is so senseless, but now…I couldn't be happier God graced me with an idiot for a friend."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Anna sighed and raked a hand through her blonde hair. Tamao scratched her chin. Jeanne studied the ceiling. Jun read another book. Jukio put make up on while staring at a mirror. Hao yawned…
…And then Pirika came in.
"Yo Pirika-chan!" Hao greeted her, "How are we..?"
"Go die." She cut in; by passing an even paler skinned Anna. Hao, taken aback, blinked and then turned to the frozen itako.
"She's scarier than two of you." He whimpered, earning a strangled smile from Anna, who did not try to hide her anxiousness. What had happened to the girl who Yesterday was playing on a guitar and singing twinkle, twinkle little star? Oh yeah…Tao Ren happened.
"Yeah, but…," Anna whispered as Pirika sat down, no expression on her usually bright face, "I asked her."
"You did?" Jeanne said in surprise, having eavesdropped. Anna nodded, wincing as Pirika glared so very Anna-like at her and Jeanne.
"Wow, is that really the effect my glares have on people?"
All the heads except Pirika nod. Anna smiled weakly. "I'll tone it down a bit then…"
"The world is ending. Pirika is an emotionless one hit wonder who can only display anger. Anna is scared by the girl who adores her every order and move. And…Yoh looks like he's about to murder someone…" Ryoi supplied helpfully. Everyone's heads whipped around to see Yoh smash through the all ready smashed glass door like the incredible hulk. His eyes fell on Ryoi.
The latter gulped, Anna looked very unnerved and Tamao bit her lower lip, while an oblivious Jukio began to apply eye liner. "Yoh-kun," Ryoi said, fighting the strange urge of his to run, "why do you look do…homicidal?" Everyone sweat dropped and Ryoi immediately regretted his opinion.
Yoh stormed over to him and picked him up by the collar, glaring with murder intent. He then saw Anna, gaze softened as did his wanting to kill thing.
"Right you; we'll see if you're worthy enough to court Anna," the blonde blushed and gaped quizzically, "then we'll see! You and me, shaman fight! Right here, right now!"
"Anna! Save me from the wrath of your mentally confused fiancé!" Ryoi exclaimed. Anna just continued to gape in shock, as did everyone else, while Jukio reached for some lipstick.
Manta, first to recover, smiled at Yoh reassuringly, but it was a brittle smile.
"Ryoi wasn't courting…"
"Get your ghost and actually…meet me in thirteen hours by the sport section and bring a Bokken (wooden sword) and your best moves."
He bent down to hug an unresponsive Anna, releasing Ryoi in the process and then left, smiling at a blank Anna like a valiant knight in shining armour. Jukio, who finished covering every inch of her face with make up, stood up and beamed at everyone.
"Right! I'm off! Got a date with Hota the Makazin restaurant pig. He and my stomach are gonna get along great! I bet there's gonna be a bit of drama there too, so I'll leave you lot to your dull and uneventful day! Sayonara!" And with that her footsteps bounding down the corridor were the only heard noise.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ren sighed audibly as Pirika appeared at the doorway, expression impassive and as unreadable as a book with a size one font. He had a gut feeling things were going to worsen but he shoved it aside, strengthened by the blissful hope he could actually do something right. After all, the dance was also looming…
Scanning the room and not seeing any Hota Makazin, he let out a raspy breath. Followed by blue eyes locking with yellow. He gasped, making Anna smirk and Tamao look in awe.
Except for that stone look in her eyes and on her face, she was inexplicably beautiful. Sure, she was only wearing blue jeans and a long sleeved t-shirt coloured yellow, but it was not reflecting the usual attire she wore. Or maybe, the fact that Ren wasn't hiding from her or battling fierce opponents, he finally noticed her astounding looks. Coupled by the glimmer in her eyes and soft smile, you'd think he was in heaven but…he would be lucky to ever see those features of her because of his mistakes.
'I act grown up…but I'm really not, am I?'
'You have that fact spot on, congrats.'
'Who may I ask are you?'
'Your conscience.'
'Oh…'
'Now Tao, blind her with your charm!'
'Eh…'
'Dazzle her with your winning smile!'
'Hmm.'
'Woo her with your sophistication!'
'Yes!'
'Make amends!'
'Yes..! W…wait! How do I make amends!' His conscience vanished without a trace and sighing with anxiety Ren stared at Pirika, smiling with confidence. 'I do not need help, I am Tao Ren!'
He walked stiffly up to her and they stared each other down for a couple of moments, before Ren outstretched his hand to her. Minutes flew by as Pirika stood there, eyes fixed on the becoming sweaty hand of Ren. Anna gritted her teeth and urged to Gods to let Pirika except the hand, and she finally did, grudgingly or not.
Tamao cheered and Anna smiled in relief. Seriously, all this drama was making her resolution to be the cold and fearless itako drown in the 'Oh-my-God' moments. Oh well…
The two walked out and eyes followed them. Tamao was about to speak up when a hand grabbed her wrist gently. Tamao let out a squeak and the two turned to be met with good natured laughter.
HoroHoro beamed at Tamao and said person, blushing, allowed her feet to do as they please, which led to her following her unsure if she loved him friend out. Anna raised an eyebrow as Jeanne and Lyserg exchanged smiles, before strolling out side by side.
Ryu looked at Jun, shuffling his feet. Hearing the noise, the green haired woman's head quirked up to meet the biker, who looked uncharacteristically nervous. She smiled and took his hand, dragging him along. Next, Faust and Eliza followed out in a half embrace.
"You two next." Anna sighed at Jukio and Manta. Manta was frozen and Jukio was filing her nails when the voice of the itako came. Despite Jukio's protests, both were pushed out by her and then she was left in the silence of the room, until coughing from Hao ensued.
She turned to glare at him and he grinned meekly. She felt someone prod her arm and she turned to meet the emerald green eyes of Ryoi, who was grinning meekly. Her brow shot up again and she whirled around to face Hao, who had the same grin on his face. She mentally sighed. "Double date?" She queried.
"Well, it's more like a fun date and besides, Yoh isn't here and me and Hao aren't gonna grope you or even hug you." Anna bit back a laugh.
"Not the point, I'm Yoh's fiancé you two."
"Can we just follow you then?"
"Fair enough." The itako sighed, leading the way as the trio walked out.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ren and Pirika halted by a very terrifying looking rollercoaster, which made Ren gulp, but didn't even get a second glance from Pirika. She simply entered the doorway and a flustered Ren followed, beating himself up mentally that he had got rid of the fear for of a ride like this. This ride was called the 'End.' That explained rather a lot and pretty summed the terror rating up, right?
"Do you want to?" He questioned carefully. The female Ainu turned to him, eyes boring into his own eyes.
"Yes."
"Aren't you scared?"
"No. You?"
"N…," 'Wait a second baka! Be truthful!' "Yes, yes I am." He was relived when her expression showed surprise, but it speedily returned to normal.
"Whatever Tao-sama, you don't go on if you don't want to." The girl turned and walked off, disregarding his presence. Fighting back the pain of her referring to him as 'Tao-sama' he followed suite and was happy she acknowledged his existence by pausing to study him.
"Thought you were scared?"
"Of course I am, but I need to watch you."
"Bah…did HoroHoro ask you to baby sit me again?" She snapped harshly. His expression didn't falter.
"No, I just want to make sure you're ok Pirika. I don't want anything bad to happen to you." Her eyes widened and he fully noted the way her cheeks were tinged by the colour red. She eventually dragged her cool composure back, either oblivious or ignoring the lingering blush.
"Wh…whatever, let…let's go." She took his hand in hers and led the way, the colour red deepening. It was a shame she didn't look over her shoulder to see Ren looking flushed.
The arrived at the very top and both of them anxiously walked into the rollercoaster, settling themselves down. Ren heard someone gulp and turned to see Pirika biting her lower lip, cold expression wavering. His own eyes widened and a sympathetic nature took him over.
"Hey," he whispered tenderly, placing his hand over hers and making her jump, "if you're scared, we can get off…"
"Ren…," she stated, cold expression sucked from the world, "I…" She didn't have time to finish as their cart jerked. She screamed and though fastened to a belt and pushed down by a bar, dived her upper torso into Ren. He only had time to hug her head and upper torso towards him before the sound of mechanics shuddered, as if awakening from a long slumber and the cart began to move forward.
The screams of laughter and mock fear were heard all around, causing the Tao to grip her tighter as the cart reached the peak, before plummeting down…
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"You have a lot of explaining to do." Anna stated accusingly at Yoh, who stood before her, smeared in dirt. Ryoi backed off, hiding behind Anna and his twin gawked at him and his messed up state. He glowered waringly at Ryoi and Hao, before turning to grin at Anna.
"Gomen. I was training for things." Another glare at Ryoi. Anna, recalling the perplexing event and realising there was no point trying to tell Yoh otherwise, shrugged at Ryoi sympathetically, making Hao laugh. She glared at him and raised her hand, whacked him across the face.
"AND Hao will participate in this little play date between you boys." She demanded, ignoring Hao's 'What-the-hell?' expression. Yoh grinned evilly.
"I'll murder them if only for your smile." Anna bit her lower lip and blushing faintly, grabbed a stupidly grinning Asakura's hand. She began to effortlessly drag him off, before turning to Ryoi and smiling guiltily, mouthing 'I'm sorry.'
Her mouthed reply was a grin and 'Don't worry.' So, she and Yoh left a smiling Ryoi and Hao, who was stroking his wounded cheek.
"So," Anna said, fingering her blonde locks, "where to?" The boy moved his hand from hers and placed his arm around her neck, letting it rest on her shoulder farthest away from him.
"Food court." Anna blinked at him, before she stared with a weary expression through lidded eyes, causing him to gingerly blush and scratch the back of his head. His unexpected response to his suggestion was Anna ruffling his hair smiling sweetly and snuggling up to his chest, the smile fixed in place.
"Baka."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ren gave the most menacing glare at the people nearest to him who unawares were laughing their heads off. Pirika was sobbing into his shirt as the continuous drop gained momentum. His stomach was folding in on himself and Pirika's cries were driving him insane. He hated it when Pirika cried and the people around were not easing her pain. Groaning, he gently pushed Pirika away, staring into her teary blue eyes.
"Don't worry," he said in a soothing tone, wincing as Pirika grabbed his hand and dug her nails into it, "I'll sort this out." He ran a hand through her blue hair, which was all over the place due to the forces and then his hand came to her cheek. She gaped blankly as he did this, not quite sure what was happening around her. The world seemed to freeze as Ren's rough hand, scarred by blood of others caressed her face and yet even with his war hands…nothing felt better.
He planted a kiss on her forehead and made her let go of his hand, as he unfastened his belt. Her eyes widened and she tentatively touched her forehead, muttering his name over and over again. Then, he stood up, clothes being beaten by the wind and seeing him, her heart missed a beat. Not because of love, but because of fear.
"Ren what are you..!" He didn't seem to see the bar meant to be pushing him down and smiled a smile Pirika had never seen on him before. The kind Yoh used to only Anna. The kind Ryu had recently flashed at Jun. The one Faust always showed Eliza. The same one HoroHoro displayed to Tamao and the same one Lyserg secretly followed Jeanne with…it was…
The smile the boys reserved for their loved ones. Her eyes widened, her fear melted, her hand went out to him, trembling uncontrollably, and his smile turning into determination, he jumped. And Pirika's heart went after.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Jukio paid the man the correct amount for the two ice creams, before returning to Manta. She tapped his shoulder, causing him to jump and pivot around as he stumbled back. Her brows rose and blushing and grinning shyly, he scratched the back of his large round head. Jukio shrugged and handed him the ice cream coated with strawberry sauce to Manta.
During the short process, their hands brushed and Manta's heart did a million backflips in a second, while Jukio only resumed licking her ice cream which was showered with sprinkles.
"So…so," Manta stammered, ice cream shaking in his hand and the contents dripping from it. Jukio made an 'hmhmm.'
Signalling she was ready for the answer. When he didn't reply she paused, looking at him through a sideward glance. His heart was caught in his throat and he was incredibly grateful she looked away. But, Manta was smart, and he knew Jukio was too, vain or not. She must have noticed his shyness, but he was glad she had spoken about it.
"Well, where do you wanna go?" Her brows furrowed in annoyance and she glared at him, but her glare was replaced by curiosity as she followed his eyes to what he was gazing at. Her brows rose in a startled manner. The tunnel of love? Why was he staring at that?
Jukio suddenly blinked and then smirked mischievously. There must have been a girl waiting for him there and he was too nervous to say anything. "No worries Manta," she laughed, yanking his hand with hers and rushing towards the tunnel, "let's go find your 'miss romantic.'
Jukio halted when she felt the weight of Manta's body increase and wondering why so, she decided to look at him. She then sweat dropped to find he sprawled over the ground, nose bleeding and no movement. It was apparent he had fainted for some reason. Grumbling to herself, she began to search for Anna in order to get help. After all, it wasn't ladies who carried boys, it was the other way round and Anna had one male at her side.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Bason!" Ren called as he looked down on a lower track which the cart would soon run through. His guardian ghost appeared next to him, a determined look on his face. He nodded at Ren respectfully, but then broke into a smile.
"Oh Bochamma! You've finally found love." He gushed, making Ren flush red. He turned angrily to his ghost guardian upon hearing Pirika scream and the cart speeding closer.
"Baka, hurry up!" Bason's smiled vaporised. "Ghost ball mode! Hyoi Gattai!" It was not long before Bason in the shape of a glowing orb had entered his being and he whirled around, awaiting the cart. As he was instructed to wear a hooded jacket in case he embarrassed Jun so he had to hide his face, he pulled it over to completely prevent others from seeing him.
He landed on the track as the cart appeared in front of him and heard Pirika crying his name out. He smiled softly, but then raised his hand.
''How do I stop it. If I don't Pirika will be upset and…and…but I can't do it…yet…Pirika and tears…will become one again and I…I don't like it…so…so I will stop it…I will stop that dammed liquid from rolling down her face.'
"FURYOKU BLOCK!" A white barrier, comprised of furyoku appeared in front of him, as the screaming from the people aboard the cart multiplied. They crashed into it, but instead of pain searing through them…the panic of the situation was only there. The barrier had slowed them magically somehow so they wouldn't proceed nor get hurt. As everyone stared at the peculiar object, no one was aware when Ren slipped through and picked up Pirika's body, scaling down the tracks quietly and slowly.
The white barrier disappeared and then the people were caught off guard as the coaster rushed forward and dipped for another drop.
"Ren…" Came a hoarse voice, which made his insides churn. It was Pirika's, but it was so lifeless, scared and delicate. It wasn't the voice from the Pirika he knew.
He halted when he felt someone clutch his arm and looked down to see Pirika's face staring up at him, smiling weakly but in a confused way. "Why did you do that? I could have sat the whole ride, but I…oh I'm sorry Ren, if I wasn't such a baby, then maybe I would…"
She was silenced by a finger pressing down on her lips. Her eyes widened and she visibly blushed, grasping his finger loosely. He smiled a very unRen like smile at her, known as a genuine smile and brushed her blue locks falling across her face.
"Don't worry; I just couldn't stand to see you cry." She blushed and her small smile transformed into a fully fledged one as she went closer to the Tao, letting out a sleepy yawn.
Moments past as Ren walked and carried her, away from the people and amusement park. Blushing he looked to the sky and stopped, biting his lower lip. "Ah, Pirika…I um…I love you…ah but…I…just want you to know that and I'll understand if you hate me for my stupidity but love is new to me and I didn't know how to approach it…so…uh I…please don't laugh…"
The only response to his confession was the sound of soft breathing and he looked down to see the noises source. There in his eyes, was an angel, fast asleep, with no troubled expression on her face. He smiled and sighed staring up at the setting sun.
"Ren…baka." Pirika murmured in her sleep, turning slightly. His smile warmed even further as the sun seemed to gleam on the two and he began to walk again.
"You didn't hear me…oh well. At least…at least I finally got it off my chest, and well…in time, I will tell you when you are not so tuckered out."
Chuckling, Bason appeared next to him and the two began the trek back to where most of their friends had returned to, Pirika secretly smiling in her sleep, for reasons she would not know when she awoke.
Tsuzuku
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ah yes, the rollercoaster bit was a tad over the top but (shrugs) who cares? That was Yoh/Anna Ren/Pirika chapter if you were wondering and the next one will definitely include some HoroHoro/Tamao. Ah, anyway, please review on my little twelve year old behalf (smiles) and see ya next chapter.
Bye!
