Chapter 2: Anger that took over
Naru held her shoulder. She felt paranoid with her holding her shoulder. " Keitaro, its okay but will you just please stay with me just this one night?" She asked him.
He pushed her gently so he could see her face. "Yes sure."
Even though he turned her down, she felt jealous with Shinobu. She stood up then went out. She went straight to her bed but she just lied there thinking. 'What if I was turned down by him, how would I feel or react?' she asked herself. She thought about it until she fell into a deep sleep.
On the other hand, Shinobu leaned on Keitaro's chest. They then fell asleep.
Morning came
Shinobu woke up first. She stood up from Keitaro and kissed him on his cheeks. "I truly love you so much, only if you didn't like somebody else you could be mine." She said to the sleeping guy. She went out o the room and went to the kitchen to cook breakfast.
Naru was the second one to wake up. She stood up and dressed up. She went to the kitchen to see if somebody like Kitsune was there already. When she got there she saw Shinobu cooking. She stood there to watch her. She knew that she could never be as close to her as before.
She went to her. "Hi." is all that she could say.
"Hi." She replied. " We're having hams and eggs this morning."
"Oh, great." she said while frowning even more, " need help?
"No thanks, I can do it without your help." She said rudely. Naru was surprised with what she had just said. She slapped Shinobu on the face with anger.
" Have respect, I'm still older than you!" She screamed. Keitaro went to the kitchen just in time to see the slap. He didn't hear what Naru said because he was too surprise.
He hurried towards Shinobu and hug her in protection. "Stop it Naru, you mustn't slap her like that." He said. She was hurt because Keitaro took Shinobu's side instead of her's. She felt her eyes were teary. She ran away from the scene towards the bathroom. She cried hard for she was hurt.
'How could he take the side of the wrong one.' She said to herself. She cried even more. Mean while.
"Are you okay Shinobu, why would she slap you like that?" he asked her. She felt anger towards Naru so she decided to make her look bad.
"She said that I should stay away from you and that I am not worthy to be your friend Urashima." She lied. She felt conscience but her anger is deeper.
"Why would she say that?" he asked.
"Well maybe because she has a real bad attitude on the inside that she is not showing." She lied once more. 'Actually it was an opinion but I consider it as a lie because I don't think she is like that.' She thought.
He let go of her then started walking. "Where are you going Urashima?' she asked.
"I'm going to confront her." He said fiercely. Then he started walking towards the bathroom. When he finally got there he knocked. He knew it is rude to bulge in even though you're mad.
The door slowly opened. She saw Keitaro with an angry look. He pulled her out of the bathroom roughly. He held her tight. She thought he was going to kiss her but even you know he isn't. He slapped her. It was all so sudden.
She never felt pain in her heart like this. It was more painful than her pain in the physical part. She cried. "Stop imitating already!" he shouted at her. She was now afraid of him. She was shaking hard.
"But Kei…."
"Stop calling me by my first name!" he shouted louder. All the people were awaken by his shouts. She now couldn't say anything because of her fear towards Keitaro. She had never seen him that mad before, the only Keitaro she sees before was a funny and clumsy one. Everybody went to the scene right away. They saw an unpleasant scene. He didn't mind the stares.
"You listen to me woman, you have no right whatsoever to do that to anybody, you're just a lousy pretender!" He screamed this time. The word 'Pretender' struck her. She felt like she was fading. He couldn't control his anger no longer.
He punched her on the face causing blood drips from her mouth and it also threw her on the ground. When Motoko saw this, she wind up her sword then headed towards Keitaro. He saw this coming. He ducked and then held her hand hard causing her not to move. She tried to break free but for some reason his hands were like combined metal.
He pulled her towards him making her drop his sword. Now she was leaning in Keitaro's chest. "Why are you doing this, you're not the Keitaro we knewww……ahh!" she screamed with pain. He twisted her hand like a pulp.
"You stay out of the way or you'll be sorry!" he warned. After him saying that she was now afraid of him like everybody in the house. He then pushed her towards the ground roughly. He looked at everyone around him. When they saw him looking at them they took a step backward.
"What are you looking……………at?" then he faded.
