The Story of Nigel
Disclaimer: I don't own YYH or The Used lyrics.
"Write me up," he challenged the hall monitor. "I'm not going to stop now."
"I will do more than write you up, I will get you suspended." The tall chunky hall monitor yelled at him.
"Whatever," he said walking off school campus and into the busy streets of Chad.
"Ugh," the hall monitor grumbled flipping him off. "Time to call his father again," she said to herself as she walked into the school office. As she walked in she noticed the principle talking to a white girl. In this part of Africa they barely ever saw white people. The hall monitor's eyes shifted from the young lady to the principle as he motioned for her to come in.
"Mrs. Zagare I have just heard some unfortunate news," the principle said in a thick African accent.
"I see and what is that?" she asked looking from the white woman and back to the principle.
"Nigel's father passed away a few nights ago, and this young lady here is his new guardian," he told her as a sad smug look crossed his face.
"Well that is a great misfortune, but you must know that he has just left school," she confessed, wondering if that's why he seemed so upset.
"He what?" the principle asked her as the sad look turned to a surprised look of anger.
"It's okay, I will find him," the woman spoke for the first time.
"If you must," the principle excused her and she immediately got up and walked out of the office and a second later out of the school.
When she was outside she took out what looked like cover-up. She opened it and a toddler's face appeared on one side of it.
"What is it Rika?" the toddler asked her, he was shuffling papers around on his desk.
"Well you see Nigel he uhm… he left school and I don't have any clue where he is," she informed him as she walked officially off the school grounds and into the booming Chad.
"I thought this might happen, hold on let me get someone to come help you," Koenma said as the screen went black.
"What do you mean you thought this would happen?" She gritted between her teeth and threw her piece of equipment on the ground and began to jump and stomp on it. Suddenly she stopped and looked up to notice a bunch of people looking at her. She felt so out numbered, but that was fine with her. They might have a problem with her considering she probably just scared the crap out of them, though she didn't care, plus it helps when you're not racist. She just waved to them and smiled, and they smiled and waved back to her. Obviously they weren't too scared of her.
Rika then began the large task of searching for Nigel. She had no idea who she was looking for; Koenma hadn't showed her a picture and assured her that when the school called him down to the office she would know who he was. "See no need for a picture," he had told her.
After blindly searching for hour Yusuke showed up, or at least she had hoped for Yusuke. In reality it was Kuwabara who had com to her aid.
"Just great, I was doing just fine not ever talking to you ever again," she sighed smacking her self on the forehead.
"I think the only reason you don't like me is because pipsqueak brainwashed you," Kuwabara threw out there as Rika gave him an interesting look.
"See the reason I hate you is because you think stupid. Anyways, did Koenma send you with a picture?" Rika asked hoping Koenma wasn't as dumb as he seemed.
"Nope," Kuwabara admitted smiling and waving to all the people passing by.
"Great, lets go see if he is at his house or at least see if there is a picture there," Rika decided grabbing Kuwabara's arm and dragged him towards Nigel's mansion of a house.
"Move it woman," some juvenile pushed through them, knocking Rika over, while he kept running.
"What the heck?" Kuwabara asked as he looked up to see what the boy was running from. "Rika we should run," he screamed turning on a heel and running with the rude boy.
Rika still lying on the ground wondered what he was talking about. She sat up and came face to face with a swarm of bees. Well not really face to face, but they were heading her way. Quickly she stood up and ran.
The bees quickly caught up with her and she had a good chance to look at them. They were huge and they weren't bees, THEY WERE HORNETS! Screaming, Rika sped up and noticed Kuwabara and the boy in front of her jump into a river.
As she reached the river she quickly followed suit and jumped in. She wasn't ready for the rush of water that almost seemed to swallow her. As quickly as she had jumped in she was soon pulled out by four hands.
"Where the bees?" she asked franticly once she was on dry land.
"They stopped chasing you a while ago," the rude young man told her.
"So are you telling me that I didn't need to get wet?" she shouted sitting up. She gave the boy and evil eye.
"Exactly," she said making the same face.
"Ugh," Rika sighed looking at Kuwabara who was giving her a weird smile. As you can imagine it must have looked a little creepy. "What is it?" she scowled not liking the smile he was giving off.
"Ask him his name," Kuwabara said smiling wider as his eyes squinted. He looked like he was going to break into a giggle fit.
"Okay. Young man what is your name?" Rika asked the boy looking confused.
"Nigel Kinger," he told her wondering what in the world was going on.
"Kuwabara I thought you said Koenma didn't show you a picture," Rika sneered as her eyes went red, and she looked as if she wanted to kill Kuwabara.
"Actually you only asked me if I had brought a picture," He said backing away from her slowly.
"Well at least you could have told me you knew what he looked like," Rika stood up and began to walk towards him as Kuwabara made a run for it and jumped back into the rushing river.
"Idiot," she sighed watching him almost drown in the water. "Yeah learn how to drown," she shouted at him.
"Anyways, how do you know me? Are you the one who is coming to take me away? I never thought my new guardian would be a hot, white, lady," Nigel smirked as Rika's jaw dropped.
"Well actually I am here to take you to your new guardian. How do you know so much?" she asked cocking one eyebrow.
"I'm not stupid you know. I heard the house keepers talking about it," he said sitting on the dirt.
"Well are you ready to go?" Rika asked walking closer to him and taking out the piece of paper which now had many numbers on it.
"Please take me," Nigel stood up and stuck out his hands.
"Then here we go," she said wondering how the house keepers knew, no one was supposed to know. She shrugged it off and grabbed his hands and they traveled to Genkai's house.
"So this is it? Some shrine in the outskirts of Tokyo, Japan? Oh well it's better than being back in Chad," Nigel said as Rika rolled her eyes.
"No wonder no one wants to get to know you, with that personality," she said as he turned to glare at her.
"Shut up," he yelled turning away from the house and down towards the city.
"No," Rika yelled also chasing after him. She knew he would have been sensitive about not having any friends, she soon regretted her comment. As she reached the bottom of the hill she noticed he had stopped. Rika ran up beside him and saw Yusuke and Asuya kissing right in front of the closed gate.
"Eww…," Rika said as Yusuke broke away and his face went red. Asuya just smiled at her. "Genkai was trusting you to not do exactly what you just did."
"I can't help it she is hott," Yusuke gave a devilish smile like he was about to grab Asuya's butt.
"Who's this?" Asuya asked walking away from Yusuke and to Nigel.
"I am Nigel, do you live here? Because if you do I think I can stay here too," he smiled as they looked at each other face to face.
"When I first brought you here Asuya you were an innocent, dumb girl; now you think you are a vixen. Yusuke what have you done to her?" Rika shouted pulling Nigel away from Asuya. "Come on."
INSIDE THE HOUSE Genkai studied Nigel up and down carefully. "You're going to be tough to train."
"Is it because of my skin?" Nigel pressed the issue on the old woman. He was upset that his father died causing him to wind up here. How was this old lady going to take care of him?
"No, skin color is of no importance to me. I said this because I can tell you are stubborn," she said closing one eye and discontinuing her studying.
"I am not stubborn," he announced loudly, only to be hit upside his head.
"You just proved my point; don't talk if it is going to prove me right. You will just feel embarrassed," she scowled before looking at Rika, Lash, Yaniki, Asuya, Hiei, Mace, Raga, Toby, and Yusuke.
"My pupils continue your chores, Yusuke to the back porch, Rika go fetch Kuwabara you left him in Africa, the rest go home. I have to that too much," Genkai shouted giving her commands as they all did as they were told. "Raga show Nigel what he must do," she shouted again as the front door shut.
"Yes ma'am," Raga answered walking up to Nigel. "Come with me and I will show you your room," she said as nicely as she could leading him to a room. "Those clothes over there are for your training and that wardrobe over there is full of school clothes."
"Who said I was going back to school?" he asked not happy with the idea.
"Genkai did, now come we are almost done cleaning then we can do whatever we feel like," she commanded as a vein popped out of her forehead. "Just so you know if you are this ignorant to me again or my sister I will have to kick your ass."
"Hmph," he said as they walked out of the room.
THE NEXT DAY AT school Nigel looked up at the large building. It was a lot cleaner than Chad.
"Are you coming?" Asuya asked as the other three walked into the building.
"Nope," he said blandly as he turned around and walked away.
"Can I go with you?" Asuya asked biting her lip as she ran to catch up with him.
"Yep, you sure can," he said smiling as they crossed the street and slowly the school vanished from their sight. "You know by coming with me you are making a pack with me."
"And what pack is that?" She looked at him surprised. Asuya noticed that he was digging in his pockets. After a while he pulled out a bunch of yen. "Where did you get that?"
"I stole it. Now the pack is that you can never go back to that shrine with that crud old hag," he said stopping in front of an apartment building.
"But…," she stuttered afraid of what was going to happen.
"Promise? You can even live here with me," he looked at her smiling.
"I promise," she agreed wondering why she had, but to her it seemed like this wasn't an idea that would last long. Surely they would be found. "Nigel how is this going to work? We are under age we can't get an apartment," Asuya asked still pondering how they were going to pull this off.
"Well you see my dad was the richest man in all of Africa, and he owns this apartment complex," Nigel scoffed throwing his rich card out.
"I see," Asuya smiled finally happy she had come along. 'I'm with a rich man, or at least I will be as soon as I get him to fall in love with me. Dark chocolate is my favorite anyways,' she thought devilishly to herself.
BACK AT GENKAI'S everybody was returning home from school. They had all noticed Asuya and Nigel's absence from school and wondered if they came home sick. As they walked through the door they met the worried faces of Koenma and Rika.
"What's wrong?" Yaniki asked walking across the room and standing next to Genkai.
"Nigel and Asuya have run away," Koenma almost shouted in frustration, but it came out like a mutter.
"Well then go get them and bring them back," Toby suggested walking across the room also.
"We can't," Rika said with a sad look on her face. She knew Nigel was a bad egg and he shouldn't have been brought to Japan.
"And why is that?" Toby asked with a new look of worry written on his face.
"If we bring them back against their will then they will resent us even more," Genkai told them the awful truth out loud.
"Asuya never resented this place, she loved it," Yaniki tried to reason.
"Yeah I thought so too, until Genkai brought forth this," Rika said handing Yaniki the book she held in her hands.
Yaniki opened and flipped through some pages, "It's a diary."
"Really? What does it say?" Toby asked as Raga turned and left the room, she apparently didn't care.
"Today was officially the fifth worse day of my life," Yaniki began to read the 5th excerpt from the journal, "I'm used to the work load, but school and training are just too much. Of course Yusuke and I do more kissing than training. I'm almost 18 I just want to be free and on my own. Bonnie is probably out in the world living, not being controlled more. Anyways journal I have to go to bed now it's 'BEDTIME'." Yaniki finished reading. "Who knew she was this unhappy?" Yaniki dropped the journal on the floor and kicked it. "Are we really that terrible of people that she hated it here?" Tears began to swell in her eyes.
"I guess so," Toby answered her question as he stared at the floor in wonderment.
"I hope they have fun living on their own," Koenma stated blankly staring into space as he stood up and started walking for the door. "I guess that's that, Rika I will have your next mission in the coming days. Good-bye all," Koenma said before leaving the house and going back to work in spirit world.
For the rest of the day everyone worked in silence as Rika sat on the front porch staring, while Genkai went to her forest to meditate. Rika thought that maybe in a few months she will go and visit them and see if they are okay.
"I sure hope they will be okay," Raga said as she cleaned the hallway floor. Deep down she really did care.
A/n: so now you know why Asuya isn't living with genkai in 'Love is Revenge' HHAHAHHAHHA this chapter was like 13 pages on paper. Anyways reveiw and tell me if im doing a good job explaining how everyone got to Genkai's. Peace out!
