: Enter: The Guardians :

...

CHEWING on a stick of pocky, Sora Hota walked behind Daisuke Yagami as they headed through the crowded halls of Seiyo High at lunch time. The two best friends were barely talking to one another, Daisuke grinning broadly as he waved to everyone he past. Stuffing his hands into his pockets, Sora yawned as he kept up with his best friend. "Seriously, is there a Guardian meeting today?" He mumbled and Daisuke glanced back at him and nodded a slight grin on his face. "Yup," he responded and frowning, the two headed into the loud cafeteria. Kids of all sizes engaged in conversation while they either stood in line ordering their lunch or sat at their usual table, eating and talking. Scanning the room, Daisuke caught sight of his friends and fellow Guardians seated at their usual table towards the window eating, talking and laughing. "Come on Sor," he said as he hit the blond's arm lightly and with a soft nod, they both squeezed through others in the cafeteria and approached the gang.

Getting there a few steps ahead, Daisuke wrapped his arms around Yame's neck and nuzzled into the soft skin of it causing the girl to jump slightly. "Hey there Princess," he whispered and blushing, Yame tried hard to ignore his warm breath and the sudden pounding of her heart in her chest. Yawning, Sora shoved Daisuke lightly and slipped into the chair beside Kimiko stealing a few of her fries as he finished his pocky stick and stuffed the fries in his mouth. "Hey," he said in a muffled voice and Kimiko smiled so did Yame and Daisuke while Maiya groaned. "Really Sora?" She probed and the blond boy quirked a brow at her as he grabbed a few more of Kimiko's fries and she shoved the whole box of fries at the older boy. "Why don't you chew and swallow before you talk to us?" Maiya pointed and shrugging, Sora leaned back in his seat as Daisuke released Yame and took the seat beside her as Sora leaned over and pulled the redhead's chair closer to his before he draped his arms around her small shoulders. It was a normal thing for the whole club, Daisuke would always initiate intimate gestures with Yame and once he settled himself into his usual seat it would be Sora's turn. Both Daisuke and Sora were aware of the other's feelings for the ninth grader and it was an all-out challenge to see which one could obtain her first—however, that hadn't been too easy with Hinta Moshi moving in on their territory.

"Where's Kenshin?" Sora asked as he twirled a strand of Yame's hair on his index finger and Maiya shrugged. "He had things to do," she replied and her gaze drifted about the cafeteria as if she were looking for someone before she stood up abruptly and waved her arm about. "Oi, Kumiko-chan over here!" She called and three sets of curious brows quirked. "Kumiko? Like Kimiko?" Sora probed, his gaze drifting over to the dark haired ninth grader beside him who looked just as confused as he was. "Who are you calling Maiya-chan?" Yame probed allowing her gaze to follow Maiya's and the gang watched as a thin, dark haired girl with lime green strands in her short bangs moved towards them; a tray in her hands and her bag slapping into her hip as she maneuvered her way through the crowded lunchroom towards the Guardians. "Maiya," she called as a small smile tugged at her lips and a grinning Maiya pulled out Kenshin's vacant seat. "I told you that I'd save you a seat!" She laughed and Kumiko nodded as she placed her tray on the table and allowed her gaze to run over the other curious Guardian members. "Hello there," she greeted and the others smiled.

"Hey!"

"'Sup."

"Nice to meet you!"

"Hi."

Maiya smiled as she took hold of Kumiko's shoulders and pushed her down into the seat. "These are my friends, Kimiko, Sora, Yame and Daisuke." Maiya said pointing to each member at the call of their respective name. Allowing her gaze to wander over the others, Kumiko nodded slowly before she smiled broadly and pushed a few strands of her hair out of her face. "It's a pleasure to meet you all!" She exclaimed and Maiya grinned before she leaned forward, lacing her fingers and resting her chin on top of them. "Kumiko-chan's new here…she's the new honour student that we've heard so much about!" She explained causing Kumiko to blush while something seemed to click into place for the others and they nodded. "Taiki-san? So you're the brilliant student who's smarter than our very own King?" Daisuke jeered and he and Sora laughed as Kumiko looked confused and the three Guardian girls turned to look at her. "It's a pleasure to meet you Kumiko-san." Kimiko stated politely and Yame nodded. "Yea…it's weird though…you and Kimi-chan's name's are so close!" She exclaimed and Kimiko smiled as she leaned over Sora and patted her best friend's head. "It's alright Yame-chan," she soothed and the redhead stuffed a few strawberries in her mouth as Kumiko stared at them all.

Eyes shifting from one teen to the next, Kumiko noticed one thing. Their uniforms were all different from hers. For one thing, there were gold stripes on their collars and the bottom of their sleeves. They wore ID cards around their necks and the girl's skirts fell a few inches below their knees whereas her own barely reached her thighs. "Eh? Are you guys the student council or something?" She asked and blinking, they all stared at her and Maiya was just about to respond when Sora jumped up, grinning broadly. "We…my dear Kumiko-san are the Seiyo High Guardians…only the most important students at the whole school. We're the voice of the students!" He explained and Kumiko blinked as Sora grinned and Daisuke chuckled while Maiya's left eye twitched and she ground her teeth. "Shut up you idiot!" She hollered and quirking a brow, Sora glanced over at her before he frowned. "Then how would you explain our job, Miss. Know-It-All?" He probed disinterestedly and calming down, Maiya flipped her stringy purple hair over her shoulder and glanced over at Kumiko.

"We're the school's government structure…we help fund the school through various fundraisers and allow the student body to have a say in what goes on…in other words, we pretty much are the effective voice of the students." She explained calmly and frowning, Sora plopped back into his seat, glaring at Maiya. "That's what I said," he mumbled and smiling smugly, Maiya shrugged. "I said it better, plus you're an idiot." She pointed out and frowning, Sora busied himself with the rest of Kimiko's fries. Tapping her index finger against her lip, Kumiko tried not to laugh at the blond and glanced over at her new friend; the Joker Maiya Tsukiyomi. "That's cool," she said before she busied herself with her food and her and Maiya engaged in a deep conversation that only other tenth graders would be able to understand. Daisuke and Sora had somehow squeezed into the same chair and were currently playing a videogame on Daisuke's DS while Kimiko was laughing at them and Yame sat there stuffing some celery sticks into her mouth.

"Ano? Are you on a diet or something Yame-chan?" Sora asked as he glanced over at her while Daisuke continued to busy himself with the game. Looking up, Yame stared into his large cerulean eyes and felt her cheeks heating up as she stuffed the last celery stick into her mouth. "No…I just think that I should eat healthier." She responded and Sora nodded as Daisuke grinned. "It's more or less her form of feeling guilty about dropping off the soccer team." He said not looking up and Yame frowned. "No! I don't feel sorry about dropping off the soccer team—I've got a lot of work, right Kimi-chan?" She said glancing over to her best friend for backup who looked up and nodded. "That's right…ninth grade is a tad bit hard." She pointed out and Yame sighed, her body slumping in her seat. "It's more than hard…I'm always tired." She mumbled and not feeling like eating the rest of her celery, dropped the rest back onto her tray as both Sora and Daisuke laughed and eventually went back to their game.

Noticing the saddened expression her best friend was wearing, Kimiko stared worriedly at her. "Are you alright Yame-chan?" She probed and the girl looked up and nodded slowly. Leaning forward, she propped her head on her hand and sighed. "I wonder if Maeda-san is getting accustomed to life here at Seiyo?" She said more to herself than to anyone else but Kimiko heard and shrugged. "I'm sure she's just fine. She wouldn't have come to Seiyo if she couldn't handle it." She said and Yame ran her finger over the lunchroom table and sunk into her thoughts.

…

"I hate this place!"

Maeda's voice echoed through the empty bathroom in the south wing. Leaning back on the toilet seat, Maeda absentmindedly twirled a strand of hair on her thin finger as she kept one hand holding the purple diamond embezzled cell phone pressed against her right ear. Pouting, she fiddled with the hemming of her green plaid skirt and pulled her knees up onto the closed toilet seat and listened closely to the voice of Jouichi on the other end.

"Well, that's not our problem…it can't be that bad can it?" He pointed out and Mae frowned as she stared down at her shoes.

"Your dad taught me today…his class is very boring Jouichi…he almost makes you seem interesting—almost." She jeered and she could hear the boy on the other end let off a muffled stream of curses as she stared disinterestedly at the back of the dark green cubicle she was occupying.

"That's not my damn problem is it? Have you met the Guardians yet?

"I've met Ayame Souma if you must know."

"Well, how is she?" Jouichi's voice was impatient and Mae shrugged.

"Cute, I mean she's the definition of the word."

"So this will be easy then?"

"I guess so… is Izzie there?" She asked hoping that Jouichi would say "Yes."

"Nope, she's currently taking a French exam." Frowning, Mae flipped her hair out of her face as she dug through her bag and pulled out her heart's egg. Twirling it around in her hand, she squeezed it and felt the warmth against her palm before the egg shook and cracked open.

"At lunch time?"

"Lunch isn't for another hour here…don't tell me you've already forgotten the schedule?" Jouichi jeered and Mae sighed.

"Whatever, I've gotta go just be here to pick me up when school's over got it?"

"Hai."

With that the other end went dead and Mae frowned. "I don't even get a goodbye?" She jeered snapping her phone shut and stuffing it back into her bag as she allowed her gaze to drift onto the blonde chara that slowly rose out of the egg. "Rin-tan," she called allowing her index finger to meet with the whole right hand of her small chara. Rinrin, a blonde haired chara whose long curly blonde hair was pulled up into two matching pigtails with deep red ribbons scowled as she stared at her human with large blue eyes. "Mae-chan," she called in a rather soft voice which caused Maeda to nod and rest her head on her kneecaps. "Soon enough Rin-tan," she muttered her eyes fogging over and the chara landed on her slumped shoulder and they both sat there in the silence and privacy of the girl's bathroom.

…

Kenshin made his way through the packed cafeteria, an annoyed expression plastered to his handsome face. As people greeted him, he gave them tight nods and forced smiles as he spotted his regular table and his friends seated at it chatting animatedly amongst one another. Moving faster, Kenshin ran a hand through his hair as he reached out a hand and hooked it onto the back of Maiya's chair. "Hello everyone," he greeted casually and looking up, the other Guardians greeted back with a chorus of. "Hi's," "Kenshin's," and "'Sups." Nodding, Kenshin allowed his gaze to land on the other two males of the group who were engrossed in Daisuke's blue DS before Maiya licked her lips and tugged at her cousin's arm. "Kenshin, I want you to meet someone!" She exclaimed friendly and blinking, Kenshin turned to look at the purple haired teen who was frantically gesturing towards a shy looking dark haired girl who was staring up at him with large lilac eyes. And with a nod, Kenshin bowed his head slightly in the girl's direction.

"Miss. Taiki, we meet again it seems." He greeted putting on his friendly voice and smiling handsomely. Nodding subconsciously, Kumiko felt her cheeks heat up. "Ah, mm hmm." Was the only thing she managed to get out and Maiya quirked a curious brow as she looked between Kenshin and Kumiko. "You've already met?" She asked slightly confused and Kumiko's cheeks tainted pink as Kenshin nodded, diverting his gaze back to his confused cousin. "This morning in the hall—but that's rather irrelevant at the moment. I'm here to tell you all that there will be a very important Guardian meeting this afternoon in our usual meeting place." He stated and Yame and Kimiko nodded while both Daisuke and Sora looked up looking rather bored. "Aw, you always say they're important but all we ever end up doing is filling out paper work." Sora complained and Kenshin shrugged as he released his grip on the chair and stepped back, his eyes boring into his fellow Guardian members. "I'll see you all at three-fifteen…no later," he said casting his gaze towards both Daisuke and Sora who ignored him by busying themselves once again with the DS while Maiya leaned forward and nibbled on her lunch as Kenshin's gaze landed on Kumiko once more and his eyes softened as a small, polite smile tugged at his lips. "It was nice seeing you again Taiki-san." He said and Kumiko nodded, cheeks tinged darkly before the blond King turned on his heels and weaved his way back through the crowded cafeteria.

With a loud sigh, Sora leaned back in his seat, his shoulders brushing against Daisuke's as he stared through half lidded eyes at nothing in particular. "Kenshin's such a control freak," he complained hooking his arms on the back of the seat and Dai agreed as he continued punching his fingers into the control buttons as his head never came up from his game, "and not to mention he's been real crabby as of late." Maiya shot both boys dirty looks before sighing and allowing her hands to collapse onto the table, her head falling onto them. "Knock it off guys, you know why Kenshin's acting like this." She mumbled, her eyes boring into the table as Kumiko blinked and placed her hands in her laps. "D-Did something bad happen to him?" She found herself asking and the minute she did her cheeks flushed darker from embarrassment and her heart pounded loudly in her chest as she felt a sudden tension fall over the group of friends. "Kenshin-kun got his heart broken by Hotori-san." Kimiko explained and Kumiko just stared at the younger girl blankly for a moment, her heart skipping beats and her throat growing dry. So he does like someone. "I guess Tess is too good for us ne?" Sora jeered grinning broadly before it quickly turned into a frown and sighing, Daisuke raked his fingers through his hair, closed his DS and got up catching the attention of his best friend. "Lunch's just about over and we've got Biology…don't wanna be late right Sor?" He said and blinking, the slightly smaller blond nodded and got to his feet as well. "Right—well, see you guys later!" He said and without another word they both left, weaving their way through the crowd and chatting as if nothing had deterred their mood at all that day.

Pushing dark hair out of her face, Kimiko also got up and grabbing hold of both her bag and empty tray, she glanced up at the others. "I need to recheck my essay so I should be going too…it was nice meeting you, Kumiko-san." She said politely and as she stepped around her seat, Yame also got up and gathering her things shot a bright grin at the two girls left at the table. "Bye!" She exclaimed before she hurried off to catch up to her best friend and dumping the rest of her lunch in the garbage bin, she skipped alongside Kimiko chatting animatedly and giggling. Kumiko watched them before she blinked and glanced over at Maiya who was currently digging through her leather messenger bag. "Are your friends always this…unpredictable?" She asked and tucking lavender tresses behind her ear, Maiya nodded, a faint smile lingering on her lips. "That's the Guardians for you—you never know what you're gonna get from them. I tell you, their personalities are always changing!" She joked and Kumiko blinked before Maiya turned to look at her grinning. "Why don't we go too—I'm sure you wanna get settled into class before it starts ne?" She asked friendly and nodding, Kumiko smiled softly. "That would be nice." She replied before both girls got up and grabbing Kumiko's wrist, Maiya tugged her out of the cafeteria all the while chatting about different school activities that the both of them could join.

---Guardian Meeting 3:35

A yawn slipped out of Sora's lips as his head threatened to fall into a pile of neatly arranged documents that Daisuke was currently stamping and handing his way. The Guardian's usual office was surprisingly quiet, there was no usual snacks adorning the cherry wood desks. Instead, the only things on the desks were porcelain tea cups resting on matching tea plates and lots and lots of papers. There wasn't the usual chatter or laughter and in its place was a sudden tension that was weighing down on the whole group. The sound of Kimiko tapping away on the keys of the club's laptop filled in the void of any human contact and sighing, Sora leaned back in his seat and Daisuke shot him a sympathetic smile before shoving more papers in the blond's direction. "Here," he said and Sora frowned reaching for his teacup. "I don't feel like it," he mumbled into the cup and Daisuke quirked a brow. "Y'know, the longer you dilly-dally the longer we'll have to be here." His words seemed to sink in and as he watched the blond put his teacup back down and nibble on his lower lip he couldn't help but laugh. Groaning, Sora reached for the papers and mumbling to himself, he reached for his stamp and grudgingly stamped the new pile of papers. With a light laugh, Daisuke busied himself with his work once more.

Looking up from a pile of important files, Kenshin's gaze drifted over his fellow Guardians. There was the Jacks busily stamping papers, a sleeping looking Ace reorganizing the Jacks progress, the Queen sitting only a desk away from him typing fervently away on the club's laptop and the Joker—wait, where was the Joker? Casting his gaze towards the large wall clock he noticed that it was well past the club's designated time and yet, the lavender haired Joker still wasn't there. "Has anyone seen Maiya-san?" He probed catching the attention of everyone else in the room. Looking up from their usual spots, they stared at their King before shrugging. "No idea," Sora mumbled before he went back to stamping more papers. Yame, who had been three steps away from falling asleep, stifled a yawn and allowed her large green eyes to wander towards the door of the club room. Staring at the glass pane in the door for a few minutes, Yame soon realized that she was more or less falling asleep on the spot instead of willing Maiya to step through the door. "I swear if she's with that Kazuhiro kid again—" Kenshin started trailing off and blinking, Yame propped her head in her palm and allowed her gaze to drift sideways while Daisuke sighed and turned slightly in his seat to stare at the King. The office was really nothing more than one of the school's old newspaper club rooms. With long desk around the room, giving each Guardian their own workspace and Kenshin's desk was situated at the front of the class with a large blackboard and bulletin board decorated with Guardian school events pinned and scribbled all over the place.

Allowing the front seats of his chair to rise off the wooden floor, Daisuke stared tiredly at the King. "Does it really matter? Maiya never has anything to do here anyway—other than serve tea and treats but there aren't any snacks today and we're all good." He explained pointing to his full teacup as Sora nodded and leaned forward, his elbows propped up on his desk and his cheeks smashed in between both of his cheeks. "Besides, she's been helping Taiki-san get adjusted. Surprisingly, Seiyo's a lot different from her old school." Kenshin stared at both boys before he sighed and placed a hand on his aching temples. "I guess that's a good enough excuse for her tardiness," he muttered before everyone returned to their work. The charas, who had taken on old habits from the previous Guardian charas, were currently on a scavenger hunt laughing and giggling the whole time as well as trying not to interrupt their humans as they did so.

By four-thirty, Maiya still hadn't arrived and with a slight yawn, lids heavy, Yame slowly rose to her feet. The sound of her chair pulling out and scratching against the wood flooring caught the attention of the others who shot her curious glances. Scratching bouncy ginger hair, Yame reached for her messenger bag and after hooking it on her arm, gathered her days work into her arms and moved towards Kimiko's work station. Placing the papers into the correct tray, she glanced towards Kenshin offering a small smile. "I'm done for the day…I'll see you guys later!" She said causing both Daisuke and Sora to look disappointed as Kenshin nodded and Tokono and Ai stared with large eyes at Yame before floating towards her. "Have a safe trip home Souma-san and we'll see you tomorrow." Kenshin said politely and with a light nod of her head, ginger hair falling into her cute face, Yame moved for the door. "Hai," she muttered tiredly before opening the door and slipping out into the hall. Once the door clicked shut quietly behind her, Kenshin immediately returned to his work while the other three stared at the door. A worried look crossing her face, Kimiko promised herself that she would give the redhead a call once she too was home before she returned to the computer screen and sighing, both Daisuke and Sora reluctantly continued working.

Footsteps light and slow, Yame headed through the empty halls of Seiyo, her head hung low and her short ginger hair framed her face perfectly. Tokono and Ai floated closely beside her, casting the girl worried looks but refusing to say anything. Yame's arms hung limply at her sides as she continued to stare down at her brown Mary Jane's, somehow she had managed to hide her pain for the entire day but as her current exhaustion seemed to grow unbearable the events from the weekend and that morning seemed to come racing back to her. She had been so busy trying to understand her feelings towards Hinta that she had somewhat forgotten about the dream that had aroused her from her sleep that morning. As the school's clock struck, the small girl looked up and stared out of one of the long hall windows. The sun hadn't started to set yet but everything seemed to be washed in an orange glow that was surprisingly a magnificent sight to look at. In fact, so magnificent that Yame chose to ignore it as she hurried out of the school building and made her way across the soccer field and towards the West wings exit to make it into town quicker. Why hadn't she told her mother to pick her up? As another yawn slipped through her lips and her eyelids drooped further, Yame was informed that their was no way she was going to make it all the way to the train station in her current condition. Maybe she could go back and hitch a ride with Sora, he lived close enough but then again, did she really want to be in a car with the blond's wacko mother? And especially on a Monday afternoon when Mayumi Hota would definitely have some important things to relay to her son from her favourite soap. Nah, she wouldn't risk a repeat of last time.

Yame stepped through the West gate and watched as cars whizzed by and Seiyo High students clambered into their respective cars laughing, hugging and saying goodbye to their friends before they did so. Yame stood there staring for a moment before she made to step forward before something stopped her. "Ayame?!" A female's voice called and stopping, Yame turned around and her eyes clashed with a tall brunette. The woman was beyond familiar and as she waved and grinned at the young redhead, Yame caught sight of another familiar brunette waving to his friends and running towards the jeep the greeting lady stood beside. Breath catching, Yame couldn't move and Tokono became worried as she floated into Yame's range of sight. "Yame-chan?" She croaked and swallowing down a boulder in her throat, Yame smiled tightly and waved weakly at the woman. "Hinta-kun," she breathed and Yame made to step backwards still watching Novi Moshi but was stopped when the lady waved her over eagerly. Not knowing what to do, Yame bit her lip. She couldn't just turn around and run even though that's what she wanted to do. That would be flat-out-rude and she was sure that Novi would give her mother a call and the problem would be addressed the minute she got home but neither did she want to go over there and actually talk to the woman. That would mean direct contact with Hinta and after what she had done she wasn't ready for anything direct with the brunette for now.

"Ayame!" Novi called continuing to wave and by this time other Seiyo High students were beginning to look. The one thing most were probably wondering was why the redhead wasn't moving or acknowledging the older woman and chancing a glance at Hinta's friends she was surprised that they too looked absolutely confused with the redhead's reaction. Meaning, Hinta hadn't told them what had happened but why? Sucking in a deep breath, Yame willed herself to move forward and as if she was on autopilot, she moved swiftly towards the brunette who was grinning. Reaching the car at the same time as Hinta, Yame didn't glance at the boy as Novi took both of her hands in her own and squeezed them reassuringly. "Are you alright dear? You didn't seem to hear me calling you." Novi stated and cheeks flushing, Yame stared down at her shoes before she spoke up in an uncharacteristically soft voice. "I wasn't sure who it was," she lied and Novi laughed as she wrapped her arms around the redhead's shoulders, drawing the girl closer to herself as she quirked a brow questioningly. "You're to school mighty late…I didn't think that Yaya would forget to pick you up." She said completely confused and before Yame could answer Hinta did.

"She's in that Guardian club, Mum. They have weird club hours." He replied and both Yame and Novi glanced over at the tall, brunette. He was dressed in his soccer uniform and Yame was reminded of soccer practice being that afternoon and Dai complaining about missing out on it when Club hours had started. His shaggy hair was disheveled and his blue/green eyes were smoldering as he stared lazily at Yame causing her cheeks to flush as he hoisted both his gym bag and messenger bag more comfortably onto his shoulders and opened the back door. "Oh right, the Guardians." Novi stated nodding as she stared off in space and Yame cleared her throat making to pull out of the awkward embrace. "I don't mean to be rude but I should really get going if I want to get on a train and get home before five." She explained still in a soft voice and Novi glanced down at the girl looking skeptical. "Don't be ridiculous sweetie. I could never let you ride on one of those dirty old train carts. You just get in the backseat and let me drop you home!" She exclaimed and Yame stared at her looking a lot like a fish out of water.

"I r-really couldn't intrude—" she started wrenching her fingers together as her heart felt like it was about to explode out of her chest. Maybe she should have turned and ran; there was no way she could get in that car and sit next to the one person she was trying her hardest to avoid. "Nonsense, come on sweetie." Novi urged friendly as she opened the back door and Yame gulped. She had no other choice and hands shaking dangerously, Yame reluctantly moved towards the door and slowly slipped into the backseat as Hinta did the same and Novi got back behind the wheel. When Hinta slammed his door, Yame jumped slightly as she stared down into her lap earning a quizzical glance from Hinta in turn. She sat like that for a few seconds before Hinta ran a hand through his hair and leaned sideways his body brushing against hers. Yame watched from the corner of her eye as one of his arms reached out and pulled her door closed. "You have to close the door y'know otherwise we'll never leave." He laughed and Yame's cheeks stained as she mumbled a soft "gomen" and Hinta soon pulled back and leaned against his closed door as the car eased out of Seiyo High.

Okay so like that's it for me for another week. Yah, now I've gotta go draft out the next chapter and don't worry there will be a lot more Celestial 5 in the next chapter I promise otherwise I will once again be forced to embarrass myself in a way that my viewers see fit!! Now here are some important memos that I need to address.

--

N.B.

-Novi Moshi is Hinta's mother as most people probably already found out

-Dai and Sora are best friends who both know and like Yame and they are aware of the others feelings but they don't let it get in the way of their friendship because I'm pretty sure that everyone can tell that they have a really close friendship

-Mayumi Hota is Sora's mother who's a bit of a nut job

-Yame DOES have a crush on Hinta but she's confused because her relationships with Dai and Sora are important to her

(hmm, I think that's everything)

-Oh yea, Maeda and Jouichi do NOT like one another although it seems that way
