Chapter 4: The Saiyan get a job! Articho's First Day as a bodyguard!
Arisa's bedroom
"Quick question, what is sex?" The naked Arisa asks, tilting her head in confusion as the towel around her hair undid itself, letting her long pink hair down.
The boy perks up in disbelief, blushing.
"Huh?" Articho tries to wrap his head from what she said to him. "What?"
"Did I say something wrong?" The singer asked.
"Exactly. How come you don't know anything about sex?" The teenager asked.
"Hmm?" The girl continues to tilt her head in confusion.
"If you say you are self-taught, do you know anything about the human anatomy and how the reproductive system works?" The hybrid Saiyan questions further.
She shakes her head. Articho pales in disbelief.
"Oh boy. It's worse than I thought." He told himself, screaming in his head. "Moving on. You can't just make someone a bodyguard just like that."
"I can't? Why not?"
"Because you can't! You have to test potential candidates if they're worthy of the job!" He waves his hands in disbelief. "What if some perverted guy or gal took advantage of you?!"
The girl gasped, realizing that he has a good point.
"I never thought of it that way." She admits, cupping her chin.
"This is unacceptable. I won't tolerate this kind of embarrassment you'll end up with. My pride won't accept this." He told her. "So for as long as I'm here I'm going to carefully explain to you all the material you've been missing out and how you're supposed to know about hiring someone that you can trust. And I'm going to do it in a way... You can get it through your thick skull."
The naked girl sweat drops, nervously at the Time Patroller. She sheepishly smiles, and gives a slow nod.
"Okay..."
His face softens a bit.
"Good. First thing tomorrow morning, we look for a school you and I can enroll at." He told her. "And on top of that, I might need some help getting an ID, and other essentials while being in the city. Do you think you can help me with that?"
"I can try." She answers. "It may take some time, but you'll be able to have one, same with a student pass and a bank account."
"Thanks. Lastly, and as much as I hate that it has come to this, it seems I'm left with no other choice. I'm forced to give you an education on sex, so you can learn to be prepared for anyone who would want to rape your attractive body. But be warned. Once I tell you all I know, your innocent little mind will be gone for good."
The pink haired girl chuckles nervously. "Wait, what?"
Articho laughs smugly.
"Oh, this is going to be good. Don't say I didn't warn you. So am I still hired or not?"
The girl shakes her head fast.
"Perfect." Articho said. "I'm so glad we're on the same page."
"So when do we start?"
"Hmm? Immediately."
"Already?!" Arisa was shocked.
"Yes, and I'm going to first show you the male anatomy." He grins. "But instead of me getting naked, I'm gonna buy you a book about the human body."
The girl sighed in relief.
"I'm also handing you a bunch of porn magazines this perverted old man I know forced me to read. I only read them because he wouldn't stop pestering me about finding a girlfriend, which to be honest, I'm not looking to start a relationship with you or any other girl right now."
Arisa gasps as her face turns red when he said that.
And so, the next morning...
June 11, 2023
Arisa is reading a human biology book, blushing deeply while walking down the streets of School District 7 next to Articho.
"I-I don't believe it." She stutters out of shock. "So that what a penis looks like. And in order to make babies, it has to be in the vagina and release sperm directly to the womb?"
"Of course." He nods, while looking at his new ID he received. "If you're not careful, then you'll accidentally end up pregnant."
"I'll remember that." Arisa admits. "So what's next on the agenda?"
"Well, you need protection in case someone does rape and impregnate you." He explains. "A condom is meant for me, but those can break very easily."
"So is there any other form of protection, if the condoms break?"
"Yes. There are three types of birth control." The hybrid Saiyan begins to explain. "First are the standard birth control pills, followed by the morning after, and the ones you take at night. But be warned that there are also drugs that will increase your libido, called aphrodisiacs, and ones that increases your fertility, that will make you instantly pregnant."
"Are you serious?" The girl was shocked. "So you're saying that I'm literally a baby factory?!"
"I didn't mean like that, but you're not wrong." He facepalms. "I'm just telling you so you can prepare yourself. They're a lot of sickos and lust minded people out there that will trick you into having children."
"Oh." She realized. "Well, thank you for telling me."
"No problem. But to be honest, I won't always be there to protect you." He told her. "There will be times where you have to be on your own. And you also have to be careful, just in case you consume alcohol. Who knows what will happen."
"You know a lot about this stuff, don't you?" She wonders.
"Let's just say that alcohol and me don't mix." He growls to himself in annoyance. "I got tricked into a drinking contest not too long ago. I prefer normal beverages like tea, soda, juice, or water."
"So what happened in the end?"
"It's best that you don't know."
Soon the Time Patroller's stomach started to growl, loudly.
"Seems to me you're hungry."
"Well, we didn't have any breakfast, so..."
"Want to get some burgers at Big Belly Burger?"
At a burger restaurant...
Arisa chows down on her second burger with a huge bite.
"Mmm." She says to herself. "That's so good."
"You betcha." He agrees, taking a bite of his 12th burger. "By the way, that's a nice beautiful pair of earrings on you."
"Why thank you." She says, taking another bite. Just when she did that some ketchup got on her finger, so she placed her burger down to lick her fingers in a seductive manner. "That was so damn delicious."
"Since when did you learn to talk like a sailor and be so lewd?" The Saiyan curiously ask.
"Well, it's your own fault. You made me read everything about porn and sex ast night before we had to go to bed, and this morning." She pouts cutely.
"Touché." Articho pointed out, eating his second container of fries. "But I do say that it makes you cute."
She puffs her cheeks, flustered.
"Just shut up and eat." She suggested, taking a sip of her soda.
"Whatever you say boss." He chuckles. "I never would've guessed that you have the guts to say foul language to anyone, let alone me."
"Well, let's just say that I learned from the best." She winks. "And on another note, Big Belly Burger is my favorite restaurant to go for burgers. Well, next to McDonald's and Wendy's."
"Good to know." Articho agreed. "So, have you decided which Middle School you believe is best for you to start?"
"Well, there's this one school I found to be perfect for us. Sakugawa Middle School." She answers. "It's one of the schools that can allow anyone to attend. Especially a Level Zero."
"Sounds good enough for me." He shrugs. "But doesn't everyone recognize you as a pop singer?"
"I'm sure everything will be all right. Because, we'll be in the same class." She assures him. "But to answer your question, I've yet to perform in front of an audience."
"I suppose that makes sense."
After they finished and paid for their lunch, the two left the restaurant.
"So when are we scheduled for an interview with the school?" He asks.
"Tomorrow morning. And the teacher will have someone give us a tour of the school, so we'll know where to go as well." She answers.
"Alright then. That settles it." He told her. "This wasn't so hard. You're a fast learner."
"I guess I am after all." She giggles.
Suddenly, there's a large crowd blocking their way.
"Where did all these people come from?" Articho wonders.
"Do you think there was an accident?" Arisa asked.
"No." He shakes his head before focusing on what's beyond the crowd. "Whatever's going on over there, there's some impressive energy I'm picking up."
"Do you think we should check it out?" She pointed out.
But before he could say anything, apparently someone beyond the crowd shout it out.
"Amazing Punch!"
The two teens perked up in confusion.
Then they heard a loud noise coming from in front of them. Curious, Articho and Arisa entered the crowd to see what's going on. Then when they got through, they were surprised at what they saw.
They see a high schooler with black spiky-hair, wearing a white headband around his forehead, a white dress shirt as a cape, and a red t shirt.
And over on the other side, there is a young woman smirking. She had a purple shirt and purple leggings, with red shorts, orange sleeve, purple fingerless gloves, a lime green vest, and dark green heeled boots.
However, there's a third contender as well. There's another girl.
She has long lavender hair styled as ringlets with matching eye color and a beautiful face. She also wears a uniform from a prestigious school.
"Come on, is that's the best you really can do?" The blonde woman says, with a smug look.
"Of course not Sai. That was just my warm up." The spiky-hair boy admits.
"Are these three seriously sparring within city limits?" Articho questions in disbelief.
"It would appear to be so." Arisa pointed out.
Articho grits his teeth and clenched his right fist. "And they didn't even invite me. Unbelievable!"
"Huh?!"
"I'll admit, I'm interested in a sparring match. But I don't start picking fights within or outside city limits. Plus, if there were big threats out there, I would end the fight early rather than let it escalate." He admits. "I also do NOT allow innocent people get caught in the crossfire of a fight. Friendly or not."
"I guess that's true." She sweat drops.
"Hey Arisa. Is there a place we can relocate this fight somewhere else?" He turns to her.
"I believe there's a switch yard that they can go to for their fight."
"No. I think that's still within city limits." He shakes his head. "We need to think of somewhere else."
Just then, everyone heard the sounds of sirens in the distance. This stopped the group from their fight.
"Looks like time for us to end our fight right here, Sai." The boy told the woman.
Just then, someone appeared out of nowhere.
"Stop in the name of Judgement!" A girl with Auburn pigtails shouts, showing a green armband. She then turns to face the ringlet haired girl, recognizing her immediately.
"H-Hokaze?!" The girl asked, shocked seeing her.
"S-Shirai?!" The girl named Hokaze asked as well.
"Huh?" Articho and Arisa perked up in confusion.
"I received a report about a disturbance in this district. I didn't expect you to be involved in this matter." Shirai pointed out. "Then again, I expect nothing less from a liar such as yourself, someone that I was too foolish enough to trust to begin with."
"I'm sorry about this, and everything Shirai." The lavender haired girl apologizes, bowing.
"I don't want to hear it. You've done enough already." The young girl answers, taking out a pair of handcuffs. "I'm taking you in."
The two teens in the crowd were in disbelief.
"This doesn't make any sense." Articho questions in his head. "I don't sense any ill intentions coming from this girl and yet the one with the pigtails is accusing her for being a backstabber. The facial expressions, the body language...you don't just fake that."
"The two of them must've had a bad past together." The singer guessed.
"Huh?! Wait, you can hear my thoughts?!" He asks, caught off guard. "But you said that you're a Level 0!"
"Huh?!" Arisa was shocked as well. "You can hear me?!"
"B-But, Shirai, I can explain!"
"Save it. You and your boyfriend can explain everything at the office."
"He's not my boyfriend! We were just having a friendly sparring match!" The lavender haired girl argues as tears formed in her eyes. "You have to believe me!"
"You should have thought of that before you kept your secrets from me." The girl then takes out what looks to be needle looking spikes underneath her skirt. "Now come quietly or should I respond with lethal force?"
Hokaze was shocked hearing that. So she looks down in shame, bringing her arms forward.
"What? No resisting arrest?" Shirai taunts. "I was expecting a fighting chance from you. You disappoint me, Hokaze. Then, in that case..."
The girl throws her three spikes at her, who looks up and panicked in disbelief. Suddenly someone appeared from thin air, and that someone caught the spikes between his fingers.
"What?!"
It was none other than Articho who then drops the spikes as they clatter onto the ground. Behind him was Hokaze who gasps in shock.
The young hybrid Saiyan then turns his head without moving his body and looks at her. "You okay?"
The lavender haired girl nods.
"Yeah, I am." The girl smiles, blushing. "Thank you for saving me."
He smiles back at her before turning his gaze onto Shirai with a serious, calm expression.
To be continued...
