The door opened to Munakata's elegant office and the twins took their place in the 2 available seats across from Munakata.
"I assume you know why I called you here." Munakata cleared his throat. There was no reason to beat around the bush.
"Why I have no idea why you called us here principle Munakata." The sarcasm from the black haired twin made Munakata's eye twitch. His smile tightens. "You may have power because of your money, but under my teaching I will not allow bullying of any kind in this school."
"You act like we're the ones who created this artificial hierarchy." Akito said.
"You're just the ones who perpetrate it the worst." Munakata added.
"Besides you can't accuse us of anything without proof." Akito said.
"We've already be reprimanded for the café incident." Hayato said. "And there are no rules stopping us from inviting students to train at the Doumyji Dojo."
"Students talking about a fight between you both and 1st year Fuse Daiki. What is that about?" Munakata asked.
"As I said, we invited him to train at the dojo. That isn't against the rules." Hayato said. "Are you going to believe baseless teenage rumors over actual conformation?"
"I don't peg you as the type to listen to rumors." Akito smirked.
"I won't allow violence on this campus."
"Good thing this won't happen on campus." Akito stood up. "Now we have a prior engagement." Akito, followed by his brother, left the office leaving a seething Munakata to stow in his anger.
Munakata knew full well that the twins intended to face the younger student at the dojo, but Munakata couldn't do anything about his student's private lives. If they were to battle it out on campus he could easily interfere. Unfortunately that wasn't the case and the twins knew that full well.
-Hidaka-
It was Friday and school was ending. Today was Friday, the only day were students could leave campus without permission. They do have to be back on Monday.
Hidaka had nothing special planned, he would visit his parents every weekend and that was all.
He and Goto were making their way to the entrance when Hidaka saw Fuse and Enomoto in what seemed to be an argument.
"Hmm, A lover's quarrel…?" Hidaka said and Goto jabbed his elbow in him.
"It's rude to stare." Goto Said. It's not like the two were making a scene, anyone could tell by their expressions that they were in the midst of an argument. Fuse stormed off leaving Enomoto alone. He then Hidaka caught his eye and soon sprinted up to the taller boy.
"You're on the council with Fuse right?" Enomoto asked. Hidaka nodded. Enomoto rummaged in his bag pack and pulled out a letter. "This is an invitation to fight. The twins had it delivered to Fuse. I tried to stop him but he wouldn't listen to me."
Hidaka looked over the note, "The Domyoji Dojo? Where is that?"
"I can take you there. I know where it is." Enomoto said.
"Then lead the way!" Hidaka said, as he followed his underclassmen.
Once more Goto had gotten left behind by Hidaka. He stood there for a good few seconds before going to search for Akiyama and Benzai to tell about the situation.
-Akiyama and Benzai-
For a room that was silent, it was awfully loud. Akiyama was rapidly tapping the pencil on the table, while Benzai was tapping the table with his finger.
"Where's Fuse?" Akiyama asked.
"Maybe he found something to do today. It is Friday." It was the only thing that would calm the brunet and his erratic friend.
"I wish that were true." Akiyama sighed. "I have a feeling that these rumors of a fight might involve Fuse and the twins."
"Let's go to the dorms to look for him." Benzai suggested,
Akiyama nodded in agreement and both of them headed for the 1st year dorms. Everything seemed normal; aside for the odd looks they were given. They didn't bother asking the other students and the dorm advisor didn't know Fuse's whereabouts.
The two decided to take their search to the computer lab. They hoped to find Enomoto there, but no avail.
"Akiyama, Benzai." A soft voice called out to them from behind. It was Goto, Hidaka's friend. "Are you both looking for Fuse?"
"Do you know where he is?" Akiyama asked. Goto nodded and lead the way.
-Fuse-
Fuse was making his way towards the Dojo after school. He was a man on a mission.
Earlier that same day during lunch, Fuse and Enomoto spent their lunchtime in the computer lab. Fuse wasn't doing much eating since he was looking up information about the twins online. Apparently, both of them come from a rich family that donates large sums of money to this school.
"So that's why they think they push everyone around and get away with it." Fuse murmured.
"Can you just leave them alone?" Enomoto pleaded. "Most 3rd years do this anyways."
"No! They started this whole thing." Fuse said. "I'm just rising to their challenge. Besides I'm not gonna get pushed around by them or any other 3rd year."
At the entrance after school, Enomoto stopped him once more.
"Fuse, please don't go. This isn't necessary." The poor boy was practically begging now. "What will this solve? You could get hurt."
"I was already hurt Tatsuya." Fuse said. "I'm sick and tired of being pushed around. Or not taken seriously enough. I'll show them my strength and if this is how I have to get some ounce of respect, then this is how it is."
Before Enomoto could get in another word, Fuse had already stormed off.
From his short research session during lunch, he figured out why the twins think they own the school, they basically do. That wasn't enough to deter Fuse. He arrived at the Dojo and was greeted by his hyperactive red-headed classmate.
"Hi!"
Fuse winced, "Domyoji, there's no need to yell."
"I'm not yelling." He grinned, "The twins are here already."
"Good, I don't want to wait." Fuse removed his shoes and followed Domyoji to the place where the twins are sitting in wait.
Once they reached the room Domyoji went off to the side to watch the drama unfold.
"So you actually came." Akito chuckled. "I figured you would find out who we are and get scared."
"Someone needs to knock you rich bitches down from your high horse." Fuse said.
"Watch yourself." Akito shot back.
"Make me!" Raising his voice, Fuse took a fighting stance. "I will not be looked down by you lot any longer."
Akito was in the back of the dojo, therefor had easy access to the training weapons the dojo had. Akito grabbed the wooden katana sized sword and rushed towards Fuse. Akito had full intent on striking Fuse's collar bone to push him backwards and disable him by pinning him on the ground. However Fuse was quick on his feet and dodged the obvious attack, but he side stepped to the left which gave Akito an opening to swing the wooden sword at Fuse's neck. He managed to block the swing, the force sent Fuse stumbling backwards. Now that Fuse was off balance, Akito unleashed a barrage of strikes on Fuse. The younger boy never faltered to block Akito's relentless attack, but he couldn't get out of the way because he couldn't get better footing dodging was out of the question least he risk falling to the floor. It kept going like this until Fuse's back hit the wall. Akito slammed the sword next to Fuse's head.
"Give up." Akito smirked.
"Not a chance." Fuse said.
Now that he was properly balanced, Fuse grabbed Akito's left arm and tripped his feet from under him to use his loss of balance to slam him into the floor.
"Give up." Fuse mocked. Akito scoffed in return. "One down, you're next."
Fuse shot a look at Hayato, who was standing up now with a wooden sword in hand in a battle stance. Before ether one could do anything, Hidaka burst into the room. "Enough!"
The twins had looks of confusion with a mix of annoyed, while Fuse's expression was one of pure disgust and anger. Hidaka was just happy to have gotten here before any serious damage was done to Fuse.
"Fuse, please stop this." Shortly after Enomoto arrived behind Hidaka, panting he obviously wasn't used to running. His pleas fell on deaf ears as it was too late to stop this fight.
"Tatsuya the only way to get them to stop pushing us around is to stand up to them." Fuse said. "So either sit down and watch or go away! And if you leave take that idiot with you!"
Hidaka wanted to give Fuse a stern talking to about how to properly speak to your boyfriend, but that would have to wait. Right now he came on behalf of Enomoto to try and break up this fight peacefully. It didn't help that he was never the one for peace talk and since he was a fighter it was easy for him tell that this was beyond the time for peace talk.
"I'm sorry; I dragged you out here for nothing Hidaka." Enomoto said.
"Don't worry about it." Hidaka said. "I'll help even out the odds."
"Are you going to talk or fight?" Getting impatient, Hayato called out to both Fuse and Hidaka.
"I'm still going to fight." Fuse said and looked over to Hidaka, "And don't interfere or I'll take you out too!"
Fuse ran towards Hayato who was still in his stance and wasn't going to move unless Fuse attacked first. Fuse lunged at Hayato to grab him by the arm and slam him down, just like he did with Akito. It wasn't going to be easy this time. Hayato figured from what he saw the Fuse was good with grab and suplex like moves. Meaning if he couldn't grab him, Fuse's fighting style was useless. This went on for some time. Fuse would attempt to grab Hayato and fail. Fuse soon caught on to what he was doing and soon it became a standoff. Fuse stopped attacking and silently saying 'it's your turn'. Hayato breathed in before making a fast strike at Fuse's right shoulder and quickly launching a swing at his side. This didn't knock the younger boy off balance this time. Fuse used this chance to close the distance between them to come at him from the side to get behind him.
"Fuse, behind you!" Enomoto's scream broke him from his focus. Now he was aware of the second twin's presence behind him without having to look. Akito was going to perform a downward cut on Fuse, but the impact of Hidaka's body sent him flying back to the floor, along with Hidaka who was now on top of him.
"Two against one is unfair." Hidaka said. "So how about I even out the odds."
Hayato broke free of Fuse's hold and made quick spinning strike at his sides once more. Fuse got hit but was able to grab hold of his arm and with the momentum of Hayato's spin; he swung Hayato around and flipped him into the floor.
"That ends this." Fuse said. There were no rules, so this could've gone on until both sides couldn't go on. But that was unlikely to happen since Hidaka was here and the arrival of new guests would also make it harder.
"This stops now!" In came Akiyama and Benzai, each carrying their bamboo swords ready to interfere if necessary. Luckily they came at the end of the fight.
"Is it over?" Benzai asked after surveying the scene.
"Looks like it." Hidaka said, getting off of Akito.
Akiyama stormed up to the twins. Seeing how they were still on the floor, it only made Akiyama's deathly glare even more threatening. "From this point on, you shall never bother these 1st years or any year one student ever again. Do, you understand."
The way he delivered that sentence sent chills up Hidaka's and Fuse's spine. It didn't work one the twins, but they reluctantly accepted the terms.
Enomoto was quickly all over Fuse trying to check for wounds. "Are you ok?"
"Yeah…" Fuse Smiled lightly and pulled Enomoto into a hug. "I'm sorry for blowing off your concerns."
Enomoto wrapped his arms around Fuse. "I'm just glad this is over."
"I am too, never get into fights again you monster." Hidaka said. "Also, I need to talk to you about how to properly talk to your boyfriend."
"I don't need lessons from some dateless sap that never had a boyfriend or a girlfriend!" Fuse hit Hidaka where it hurt. The two soon got into their own playful fight.
Akiyama and Benzai smiled at each other and looked towards Domyoji, who had 3 empty popcorn bags around him and was currently eating a fourth. "Is it over, that was awesome!" He exclaimed.
"Yes, this whole ordeal is over, Domyoji-kun." A familiar voice said. Standing at the entrance (along with Goto who guided Akiyama and Benzai here) was and all too familiar man and woman.
"Principle Munakata, Principle Awashima." Hidaka questionably said.
"No we are not the principles of your teaching establishment." Munakata said. He pointed to his and Awashima's fake mustache. "We are simple passersby's and nothing more."
Everyone was dumbfounded. There was literally nothing different about their appearance other than the fake mustaches on their faces. The student body already figured Munakata to be weird, but not Awashima. Now everyone in the room had the same expectation of her as well. A closer look at them showed that they came with their own bamboo swords as well, seems like they wanted to stop the fight as well.
"It would be wise for you all to rest and enjoy the rest of your weekend." Munakata said.
"Rest both your minds and bodies so you can grow." Awashima said.
"Your words were a lovely addition Awashima." Munakata said. "We will watch the twins as they clean up the dojo Domyoji-kun."
"What?" They said in unison only to receive glares from everyone. They once more accept the task with an unenthusiastic attitude.
Domyoji ended up inviting them all to stay the night for a slumber party.
