Legendary High School
I Own Nothing.
Chapter 8: Otori
"MASAMUNE!" The voice comes through video. The black haired boy chuckles and waves at the boys on the other side.
"Hey guys. How ya been?"
"WE'VE been fine. You on the other hand!" Zeo's voice says. Laughter fills the room.
"What are they saying?" Benkei asks as he sits on the other side of the room.
Madoka keeps her fingers intertwined and looks at him. "They're asking how is the other."
"Oh." Benkei sat in silence before looking sadly over at Kyoya. The greenette was still asleep; he hadn't woken yet and this worried his friends.
"How are the others?" Zeo asks.
"Ah, Kyoya's still out. We have no idea about Gingka or Hikaru." Masamune looked sad.
"Hey, it'll be okay." Toby speaks up. "Don't let it get you down."
"Toby's right. Just focusing on getting better yourself and they'll do their part." Zeo chimes in.
Suddenly, Kyoya groans in his sleep, rolling over on his side. He inhales sharply and rolls back. Pain fills his face. Madoka rushes to his side as Benkei runs for a doctor.
"Are you okay, dude?" Masamune speaks in English before repeating himself in Japanese. Kyoya's breathing becomes labored as a nurse and doctor enter. They talk quickly before wheeling Kyoya out of the room.
"What's happening?" Zeo's voice brings everyone back. Masamune turns back to the camera.
"Something happened to Kyoya. They took him out of the room. I have no idea." He trails off.
"I'll see if I can learn anything." Madoka runs out of the room. After closing the door, she looks left and right before heading to the left. She turns the corner sharply and runs into someone, falling on her butt. She rubbed her hip and looked up. A teenage boy with long silver hair stands there, a slightly surprised look on his face. It quickly changes to gentleness as he extends his hand.
"Ah, Gomen." She takes his hand, and once standing, bows.
"It's alright. You're certainly trying to get somewhere, aren't you?" He chuckles. "Ah, excuse me, Otori, Tsubasa."
"Eh?" She blinks. "Otori, Tsubasa?!"
"Yes, is there a problem?" He blinks as he finds Madoka hiding behind the corner, practically hissing at him.
"You're with DNA. You're their third member!" She points a finger at him and snaps. "I bet you came to finish them off, didn't you!"
"No, No." He raises his hands. "Look, I don't even have my bey on me." Madoka's eyes look him over and she slightly relaxes as she realizes he's unarmed.
"Then why are you here?"
"Won't you say your name first?"
"Amano, Madoka. Now why are you here?"
"So respectful." He chuckles before losing it and becoming serious. "I have meds to pick up."
"Meds?" Madoka slowly comes out and Tsubasa motions for them to take a seat in the corner. After they sit, he explains.
"Yeah, I have a mental disorder but I don't tell a lot of people that."
"Oh yeah, what's that?"
"I'm extremely bipolar."
"Oh."
"Yeah, that's why I'm with DNA. I can't go anywhere else. No other school will take me." He holds up a hand. "I triple-checked."
"I'm sorry for snapping at you." Madoka bows her head.
"It's okay." He smiles and tilts her head back up. "Can I meet your team? I'd like to. I wasn't there. Treatment."
"Oh. Yeah, sure." Tsubasa stands first and helps her to her feet. They walk together to the room, pulling the door open quietly. Masamune sits in silence, staring out the window. His laptop sits, closed, on his lap. Benkei sits on the floor, napping.
"Masamune-Senpai." Madoka whispers. He turns and gives her a smile. He motions to Benkei and puts a finger to his mouth. She nods and brings Tsubasa in.
"This is Otori, Tsubasa."
"It's nice to meet you." They exchange handshakes and begin chatting.
"So, wait, you're with DNA?" Masamune narrows his eyes, trying to stay quiet.
"Yeah, but I wasn't there when this happened. I had no idea until everyone got back."
"They just left you there?" Madoka leans against the window.
"It happens a lot but oh well. Anyway, Amano-san." He turns to her. "Could I see the beys that were damaged? I know a little about repairing beys and I figured I could help. To make up for what my teammates did."
"Um, sure…" Madoka looks to Masamune. He warily nods.
The two take a seat against the wall and open Madoka's laptop. Tsubasa points out different things and actually gets to hold Gingka's Pegasus. After a while, he stands.
"Dang it, I gotta go. It was nice meeting you guys. See you soon." He leaves after they say goodbye and they are left in silence.
"Have you heard anything about Kyoya?"
"Something about a broken arm." Masamune sighed and runs his hand through his hair. "Anyway, I can leave tonight but he will be here another night. Heard something about Gingka too. He'll be okay. He's getting released tomorrow as well. Coach says King and I will pick up practice on Monday."
"Hasama-Senpai?" Benkei asks as he rubs his eyes, waking up.
"She's in a coma."
"Really?" Madoka says sadly.
"Yeah." Masamune answers. "They don't know when she'll wake."
They continue to sit in silence until Coach walks in. He smiles as he holds up papers. "Let's go, Kadoya!"
"Tsubaka's back!" Yu calls as he continues coloring.
"Huh, the genius is coloring like the little kid he is!" Tsubasa retorts. Yu growls and throws a crayon, which Tsubasa dodges.
"What did you figure out, Otori-kun?" The Headmaster speaks.
"Plenty. The mechanic is so trusting. A little lie here and she opened everything to me. 'Let me help with the beys, to make up for what my team did.' Yeah right. I got to hold Pegasus and everything."
"Good." The Headmaster walks behind his desk and stares at his giant window. He holds a wine glass of orange juice in one hand and traces the rim with his fingers. "Let's destroy Legendary High."
