Welp, here's chapter 4!

Side story!

I apologize for any spelling and grammar mistakes.

This chapter's about Ritsu, Satoshi and Mugi and her sister. (I wanted to show Satoshi and Ritsu's bro bond, lol)

Also, this chapter might not make any sense now but later on it will.

Satoshi always thought of Ritsu as being more a big brother than a big sister figure, He'd just call Ritsu "Nii-chan" and as for the older sister thing, he'd call Mugi "Oneechan".

Why would Satoshi think this of his step sister? well Ritsu was always so rough, she'd rather play video games than play dress up and go shopping with the girls. Ritsu would always get into fights, something a normal teenage girl would avoid. But Satoshi was thankful for Ritsu for being the way she is, when ever Satoshi was pulled into a bully situation he'd get his older brother "Riku/ Riku-nii" which was actually Ritsu cross dressed to take care of the issue for him.

Ritsu also confided in Satoshi when Aoi betrayed her in 6th grade.

When Ritsu was in her last year of middle school and Satoshi was in his first year of middle school, Ritsu and Satoshi grew closer when a certain incident nearly drove Satoshi out of school.

Satoshi was getting picked on because he'd protect Sumire too much, and with Sumire being a desirable girl among the other classmates, the guys who'd ask Sumire out would torture Satoshi, they'd beat him and they'd humiliate him. Sumire told the Tainaka's and that's how Ritsu found out.

"Ricchan, what'll you do?", Mugi questioned

"I-I...", Ritsu clenched her jaw and hands, "I have an idea, but don't tell my father"

Mugi nodded, "Can I help too, I mean it's only fare. My sister's the center of it"

Ritsu nodded, "yeah"

"N-Nii-chan?!"

"S-Shut up!", Ritsu whispered loudly

Satoshi was baffled, would Ritsu really go that far?

"You call me Big brother already, now just go with the flow"

Mugi help Ritsu get dressed, Satoshi stared in awe, 'Maybe she is a boy?'

Ritsu wore the schools, boys Gakuran uniform. the Gakuran was a grey color with white lining. Ritsu fit into it like she was made for it.

"Let's take this off too", Mugi stretched her hand out and removed the yellow hair accessory in the older Tainaka's hair.

"You...look...", Satoshi was awe struck.

"Fantastic!", Mugi and Sumire clapped their hands together.

Mugi stepped in again and rustled her hands in Ritsu's hair. Ritsu now looked like another person, she looked like...a boy.

Ritsu was taller than most girls, so she covered the height thing perfectly, in fact she covered all the areas just fine but the only issue was...How would she get into the school with out parents to sign for her/him and not only that but what would be her/his name?

Sumire actually had that covered, she got her uncle to sign in for the cross dressing Tainaka. Now the name was the only issue.

"Hmmm?", Mugi had an index finger to her chin.

Sumire walked circles around Ritsu to continue observing.

Satoshi blushed, the thought of his Step sister doing this for him made him feel embarrassed. 'Ritsu-Nii really does look like a guy'

Ritsu brought her hands up to her hair and ran them through, she then shuck her head and made her hair even more unruly like.

"Rikkun!", Mugi yelled in a eureka moment.

"Riku for short!", Sumire contributed to the eureka moment.

"What?! no way, another name", Ritsu said

"what, why. It sounds good to me", Satoshi questioned

"B-But-"

"No buts, Rikkun"

Sumire smiled, " So, what's the next step"

Ritsu smirked, "I paid a few guys to back me up"

Mugi's eyebrow went up, "Don't tell me...Is that why Hiro and you were talking?"

'H-H-Hiro!?', "You mean H-Hiro Shishio!", Satoshi nearly yelled out in fear

Hiro Shishio was bad news, he was a delinquent and a wrongdoer. Every one feared him and his gang, although most of the girls in the school liked him because of the bad boy feel to him. But still, Satoshi couldn't believe Ritsu had ties to that guy.

"Uh yeah, something wrong?", Mugi and Ritsu questioned.

Sumire shivered, not believing her sister and Ritsu had ties to Hiro.

"That guy's bad news!"

Ritsu and Mugi looked at each other, "Well me and him go back to elementary, we've been sorta like childhood friends", Ritsu said plainly

'No way, Her and Hiro?'

"He offered a helping hand and we came to an agreement with him."

"What was the agreement?"

"That's not important, Satoshi. anyways, as of the first day i enter the school, i'am his right hand in the gang", Ritsu spoke.

"There's a new guy coming today!", A few girl spoke to each other

"Hey did ya hear? He's apart of Hiro's gang!", Guys murmured

"A bad boy!"

"I hope he's a hottie!"

"I heard he also come from a rich family!"

Girls began to squeal in excitement.

"Everyone, Bow and sit", the teacher came into the room.

The students did what was told of them.

The male teacher cleared his throat, "Well, today we have a new student who'll be joining us. Please come on in"

The new boy came in. His Tawny hair was unruly and wild, he was and average heighted guy. His gakuran jacket was opened, he wore a red shirt underneath, His pants sagged a bit. He was just so...delinquent like. He also had a red bandana tied onto his right sleeve.

"please introduce yourself, young man."

"My name's Riku Keitomaro", Riku said in a bit of a deep voice although there was still a bit of sqeakiness to it but it went unnoticed.

"Anything about yourself?"

Riku turned to the side and just walked away, he looked around the class and found an empty seat next to a certain blonde, he walked over and sat down.

"Keitomaro, someone's alrea-"

"Hmm? oh well, no one's here at the moment. I'll be taking this seat"

The teacher rubbed his temples, he knew this new student wasn't going to be easy, so he just let it slide.

"Fine"

Lunch time came by and Riku followed the blond out the classroom, students murmured as they noticed him follow the blue eyed girl around.

"Why's he following Kotobuki-sama?", a student asked another.

"He might just have bad intentions."

"Well Duh! Isn't he with Hiro's gang?"

Riku walked around like a male delinquent would, hands in pocket, a frown plastered to his face and his eyes held a glare filled with hatred.

"R-Riku-San!", A boy called out from a far.

students turned to see who would have had the guts to call out to such an intimidating guy.

"Isn't that Tainaka?"

"Ritsu's step brother? No way!"

"Isn't that S-Sumire-sama too"

Riku stood in place, "Wha'cha want kid?"

Satoshi had a bloody nose, he then turned to a group of guys that had followed him.

"Well well, a new kid?", a short boy said from behind Sumire.

'What the fuck? Don't tell me this is the group of kids messing with Satoshi...how embarrassing'

"Eeek don't touch me", Sumire yelped as the guy touched her rear.

"Sumire!, Hands off my sister!", Mugi yelled out furiously

'Those assholes!', Ritsu/Riku thought

"Oi! hands off Asshole, you're messin' with my propertie's sister", Riku said out

a crowd of student began to gather around, some were surprised that Their "Mugi-sama" would actually be in a relationship with a delinquent.

"They're together!?", a guy gasped

The short boy with the black hair had an eyebrow up, "(Tsk), what'll you do?"

Riku chuckled, "Listen 6th grade, 7th grade, what ever the fuck you are. I ain't playing around. Messing with My girl's sister is a serious offense and not only that but you're also messin' with my little bro. I'll run you outta this shit hole of a school for that, got that?". Riku held a serious look.

Mugi blushed a bit but held her furious face. A few girls were a bit crushed to find out that the new bad boy was already hooked up with the princess of their school. But they'd all side with Mugi anyways. Also finding out that the new kid was related to Satoshi was a bit of a shocker.

"Yeah, Jerk. Leave Kotobuki alone", A girl joined in

The boy's cocky smile fell, "who the hell do you think you're tal-"

"Fuck off Rat!", A new voice joined in but this voice was deep.

"Hehehe, ain't cha' an adorable kid...Trying to play with the big kids."

These new voices weren't unknown, in fact they were known to strike fear. The small group of offending boys turned around and they were face to face with a group of much taller and built guys.

"Oh shit, It's Hiro and his gang"

"Run for it!"

Students began to disperse and head in different directions.

Riku smiled, "Now what kid". Ritsu made her voice to be a bit husky and raspy.

"'erd you were givin' my friend's girl's sister a hard time, Is that true?", Hiro got in the kid's face.

The poor short kid's all looked freaked out.

"U-Uh w-well U-"

"Uh Uh Uh UH! Speak up brat!", A member of the gang yelled out as he stepped in.

Mugi was starting to get a bit frightened by what was going on, The unruly haired delinquent allowed the busty blond to hold onto his/her arm.

"(RING!)" The bell signalling the end of lunch rang.

"Awww well looks like we'll have to catch you after school, Kiddies", Hiro said with a devious look.

The boys all scattered in fear.

Mugi and Sumire controlled their breathing

"That was intense", Mugi said as she walked over to her sister and hugged her.

Satoshi held his nose.

"And that's all there was to it, huh?", Ritsu said, still keeping the huskiness in tact

Mugi blushed, she let her sister go and then she walked over to Ritsu.

"(Blam!)"

"ITAI!", Ritsu/Riku got on her knees and held her/his head in pain

"Saying we were together wasn't apart of the plan, Baka!", Mugi whispered harshly.

"What? i couldn't help it, Anyways now those other guys won't get near you", The delinquent said.

"Baka!"

After that incident Riku transferred out about two months later. Ritsu who had been missing for those two months was questioned by her teachers and peers, but that all washed over.

Ever since then, Mugi was avoided by the guys and after Ritsu's and Mugi's middle school graduation, Sumire became the schools princess.

As for Satoshi, he was now feared because he had ties to Hiro's gang and not only that but because he was related to a member, "Riku"

Ever since then, Ritsu and him built a strong bond, they'd confide in each other. Satoshi always wanted to pay her back somehow but he found himself unable too.

But soon, Satoshi will become the one Ritsu relies on..

And soon enough, Ritsu will need Satoshi's help...

Omg, I just had to throw this chapter in, believe it or not. This chapter will make sense later on, when things start to get...well...a little...Violent and physical and believe me, this ain't no short story either. This'll have a long plot, as a matter of fact, i'm looking at about maybe 25+ chapters here.

And with the Ritsu/Riku thing, this isn't the last time we'll see this...It'll happen again.

Further more, Hiro and his gang are bound to pop up again.

I hoped you readers liked this chappie!

Till Next Chapter, Bye!
