Chapter 3: Is this the real you…?
Opening the door to the pretty normal two story house, a man, who was wearing a gold uniform, and had a shaved head, dropped his duffle bag to the floor. Sitting down he took off his shoes, and spotted another pair of shoes. Walking into the living room, his suspicions were correct.
"Hey Unsui-san" Sena nodded his head as he stood standing behind the dark couch, towel drying Agon's locks.
"Hello Sena" the older twin greeted. He was use to the sight ever since he had first met Sena.
(Flashback!)
Agon had ditched school again, and who was the one who got the lecture, Unsui. He was getting pretty tired of this, this responsibility while at the same time always getting compared with his perfect little brother. If he hadn't shaved his head, Unsui thought his hair would fall out or he would have pull it all out.
He heard voices coming from the living room, one of them definitely belonged to Agon. Unsui was about to give him a piece of his mind, that's when he spots the small brunette sitting on the adjacent couch.
'Did Agon's taste in women change…' looking the brunette up and down, she was small and flat chested, though she was cute looking, especially with her spiky fluffy looking hair and big doe eyes. He didn't think Agon would find them attractive… then Unsui spots her legs. She was wearing shorts that were past her knees and a bit baggy on her small frame, but just from seeing her calves Unsui knew she had some good looking legs.
"Ano…" the girl spoke, pulling Unsui's focus from her legs to her pouting face, red cheeked face.
'Adorable… like a chipmunk or a hamster' "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stare… um, I'm Kongo Unsui, Agon's brother"
"I can tell, ya look the same, and Agon-san's talked about ya; nice to meet ya, Kobayakawa Sena" Sena stood, bowing.
Unsui was surprised, both by the coarseness of her language and the fact that Agon had even talked about him to his girlfriend. (Sena speaks informal and manly Japanese.)
"By the way… I'm a boy…" Sena pointed to his chest with his thumb.
"W-What? ! W-Wait how did you-"
"How'd I know ya thought I was a girl…? Simple, first off, you were staring at my chest with that look that said 'There's no way in hell Agon is goin' out with this ironing board'" Sena smirked, Unsui blushed, and Agon busted out laughing.
"And then ya went looking for things that might be attractive; my legs perhaps?" Sena smiled a bright smile, but his eyes gleamed something mischievous as his smile turned into a grin when Unsui blushed even more.
(Flashback ova!)
"Pixie, keep your hands movin'"
"I got, I got it… sheesh, your date must be pretty hot if you're in such a rush" Sena scoffed as he went back to drying.
"I only date hot women" Agon boasted, Unsui shook his head as he headed to the kitchen, on the table were bowls that were covered, and in the rice cooker was steaming rice, Sena made them dinner, again, curitousy of their busy mom's request (Sena can't say no to the ladies~) That's when Unsui heard,
"Be careful or your ego will explode from overinflation" and then a TWAP followed by a
"Ittttteeeeeiiiii!" (OWCH!) Unsui chuckled and went to go get changed. After coming back down after showering, Agon was gone, and Sena was there packing things up.
"Well, I'm gonna go now, I hope ya like your dinner. I made tempura and calamari, and some shitake mushroom miso soup, and brought over some pickled carrots and cucumbers from home" Sena counted off from his hand. Sena had made enough for four people (because sometimes Agon comes home early, and even if he's eaten, if he see's there is no food for him he gets pissed…)
"I'm sure I will" Unsui smiled, he knew Sena was skilled at cooking since he started cooking since he was 5.
"Alright then, I'll see ya later" Sena waved as he headed home to make dinner for his own family.
At the Kobayakawa residence…
Sena was sitting on the sofa in the living room flipping through the channels. His mom was gonna be pulling an all night-er and he was already making oden, which is Surimi (imitation crab), boiled eggs, daikon radish, konnyaku (stringy gelatinous substance), and naruto (fish cakes) stewed in a light, soy-flavoured dashi (a soup mix in cubes) broth.
It took so long to prepare and he was keeping the broth simmering while cutting up some green onions, waiting for his mom. That's when the phone rang...Sighing, he put the knife and phone down, and went to sit down while muttering,
"I should've just ordered takeout… went through all that to have a decent family dinner… damn crime…"
Three hours later…
'I'm getting hungry… hm…smells like something's burning…' "CRAP!" Sena shouted leaping off the couch and bounding for the kitchen. When he entered the stove was up in flames and so were the curtains…
"SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!" Sena chanted as he rushed around the island to get the fire extinguisher.
After successfully putting out the stove, and the curtains, he thanked god that the curtains had just caught on fire as he entered the kitchen, if not, the whole house would have been on fire.
'Sigh… mom's gonna be pissed…' Sena shook his hung head in dismay.
"Well… might as well go get something to eat…" he sighed and went to get his jacket. After grabbing his beanie, cell phone, keys, and skateboard he went rolling down the pathway of his house (after locking up), closing the gate he rolled to town.
In town…
Agon just broke it off with the girl, why, cause she bored him… so now he was heading home, but then gets the idea to go over to Sena's place, since he knew Sena was making Oden. So existing the movie theatre in the ritzy city he entered the crowded streets.
Meanwhile, on the edge of the town, people were just getting off from work so the streets were flooded with businessmen, and company workers. The booths and restaurants were packed, and Sena had to wait in line just to get take-out…
While he was waiting in line, he looked at his phone for the time 7:30 pm "…" then he remembered something…
'Why didn't I just call to order…?' Sena groaned so loudly it surprised the people who were in front of him. They turned to see the chibi pounding his head for being so stupid.
"Baka, baka, baka, Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid…" he chanted as he got his order, paid the nice lady and left. He kept chanting as he skateboarded off into the streets, that's when he met the incline… the steep part of the road, and being scattered brain at the moment didn't think.
"SHIIIIIIIIIIT!" he shouted as he went DOOOOOOOOWWWWWN!
Going fast wasn't the problem, dodging people was never a problem for Sena, but going fast downhill on a skateboard in a road crowded with drunk people… that was a problem.
Suddenly, he was pulled to the side, his dinner went up, and his skateboard kept rolling… that is until it crashed into a man… who promptly shouted,
"What the fuck!"
"That was close…" the person who said him stated.
"Tell me about it… Ah, my Champon!" Sena looked up, but his soup was nowhere to be seen.
"Ah, here" another person handed to him.
"It's safe!" Sena signed using a baseball sign, while still in midair; because the man has yet to put him down (he's holding Sena by the back of his jacket.) He then took the container from the other tall man.
"Hahaha, Sena, you're so adorable" the man who handed him his dinner, laughed.
"…Ah, Sensei-san! and Idol-san…? !" Sena exclaimed. They were both in long jacket/ over coats, but Sakuraba had on sunglasses.
"Sensei-san?" Sakuraba asked, looking at Takami.
"It's nothing…" Takami shook his head and went back to looking at the Chibi, who was now eating noodles while still in midair…
"Hm… want some?" Sena offered first to Takami, then to Sakuraba.
Takami and Sakuraba chuckled, "No thank-you, we just ate Udon" Takami explained, it so happens that their entire team had gone out to eat, in celebration of the Golden Year graduating. (During this time Takami put him down…)
"Ah, I see, that's cool" Sena nodded.
"So, why are you out here all by yourself?" Sakuraba asked, he was worried for the small boy; he sure didn't know Sena…
"I nearly burned my house down, so I came to get food" Sena flatly stated.
"WHAT? !" the two tall teens exclaimed, Sena didn't even flinch.
"Hahaha, it's pretty funny actually… okay, not really…" Sena shook his head as they walked over to a bench near a tree. Why, Sena finished his dinner and had to toss the container into the trashcan near there.
"W-what happened?" Takami asked as he sat down, Sakuraba remained standing because there wasn't enough room, so Sena offered his seat to the tall blonde.
"No, thank-you" Sakuraba shook his head,
"You'll stand out if you're standing…" Sena muttered, and instantly Sakuraba sat down.
"Okay tonight, I made Oden to surprise my mom when she gets out of work, ya know cause she's been working pretty hard… it's her favorite" the others nodded, smiling at the nice gesture.
"And I was waiting for her, but she has to work all night tonight, so after I got off the phone, I went to watch the news; to see what the big deal is"
"Wait… why would you-?" Sakuraba interrupted, but Sena just said,
"She's a cop, Kobayakawa Mihae"
"Oh my-!"
"Yeah… I hear that a lot" Sena held out a hand to stop Sakuraba from shouting.
"So… yeah, I forgot I was still simmering the broth and once it evaporated… it became engulfed with flames… after burning to a crisp…" Sena put in as an after thought, "and then the curtains caught on fire… but I got to it before the ceiling caught on fire…" Sena stated as he looked up to the sky.
"…Wow…" Takami stated.
"Yeah…" Sena nodded, he turned Sakuraba who still seemed surprise about who Sena's mother was; that his mouth was hung open.
"Let's change the subject. So why are you two out here?" Sena asked, and they begun spinning the tale of how their team would weaken since everyone was parting. They told him some people got drunk, though the coach (Shoji) drunk the most, he still didn't pass out like the rest of the students, and they got into talking about football, which Sena was use to it since his friends, especially Unsui and Agon talked about it too, though Unsui goes into technicalities and plays and Agon just says the other team aren't worth bothering with, and then he and Unsui would get into a 'why don't you train' quarrel… So yeah, Sena was use to hearing about football. But one thing was off, or rather one person caught Sena's attention most during the telling of the tale.
"Wow, this Shin guy must really take care of his health…" Sena muttered amazed at the things the other teen has done or eaten (or in Shin's case, never eaten.)
Meanwhile across the street…
Agon was sifting through the crowd, when he spots… a hot chick, in a miniskirt… though it was freezing.
'Nice legs… but not as nice as-Whoa, where'd that thought come from…' Agon freaked himself out by thinking naughty thoughts about a certain brunette. That's when he spots that same brunette, or at least his legs, surrounding them where another two pair of long legs.
'I know those legs anywhere…' and with that he stalked over to the other side of the road, people ran away from the sight of this glowering dreadlocked teen in shades.
Sena was laughing to the hilarity of that which was known as Shin, the destroyer of all that is electronically operated when he heard a glowering voice call out,
"Pixie"
"Agon?" Sena turned around and came face to chest with the dreaded teen, Takami and Sakuraba both looked surprise to see that the small boy knew this terrifying man.
"So… did you just dump your date?" Sena looked around and didn't spot a pretty girl anywhere and went back to staring at Agon.
"Yeah… I did, why are you here? I thought you said you'd be at home making dinner…"
'This kinda sounds like a couple's argument…' the two tall teens thought.
"I kinda burned it… so I came to eat out"
Agon scoffed, and said, "Mihae's pulling an all night-er" knowing that the chibi only burns things when he's depressed, whether it was food or old magazines.
"Yup" Sena nodded, "That's when I met Sensei-san and Idol-san, I mean Takami-san and Sakuraba-san" Sena corrected himself.
"Che, why are you talking to these trashes?" Agon crossed his arms and glared the two up and down, Takami, at that point stood up and wanting to excuse himself.
"They're not trash… a little bad luck, but not trash" Sena said smiling, thinking Agon was joking.
"Che, he's slow as fuck, and that trash isn't worth mentioning"
"…" Sena looked over at the two tall men, Takami was angry and sadden, he wouldn't look neither Sena or Agon in the face, Sakuraba looked embarrassed, no humiliated.
"… nobody's trash, everyone's got potential" Sena turned back to Agon and firmly stated, which surprised Takami and Sakuraba both.
"Yeah right, they're trash, they're useless!" Agon smirked, sending bad vibes to the two tall men.
"And I said they aren't! I know you're all that, but still, who are you to judge 'em? !" Sena narrowed his eyes, which shocked all three men.
"They're just trashes, don't fuck around with them, or you'll get contaminated…" Agon threaten, Sena just stared wide-eyed… Agon wasn't listening to reason, and something in Sena's mind snapped… maybe it was from the stress that day or something, but something in his head just told him, leave now or else.
"Come on Takami-san, Sakuraba-san, let's go" Sena pulled the two up, and were about to lead them away when Agon grabbed Sena's shoulder, or almost did had Sena not been one step ahead. Just beyond reach by a hand Agon's reflexes kicked in and he reached out again, before touching Sena, Sena turned around. With that motion Agon's reflex kicked in again and he retracted his arm.
"Pixie…" Agon glowered, but Sena just stared Agon and turned away, ignoring him… which was the worst thing Sena could do… Agon did not liked to be ignored, especially not by his best friend…
Pulling the two tall teens at an alarming rate Sena went rushing away as Agon kicked the bench they were sitting on breaking it in half…
Sena stopped when they had gotten far, far, far away from the angry dreadlock teen, he was breathing heavily.
"Ah, um…" Sakuraba didn't know what to say, Takami remained silent, but it just got awkward after Sena caught his breath.
"Sorry for bothering you again, Sena-kun…" Takami stated his glasses reflected in a way that made seeing his eyes impossible, but Sena could hear the pain in his voice.
"No need, it wasn't your fault anyways… Agon shouldn't have said that in the first place… I can't believe he would say those things, and he doesn't even know you guys" Sena scoffed.
"He says that about everyone though…" Sakuraba mumbled, but Sena heard,
"What-" Sena asked wide-eyed. Sure he's heard that Agon had a big ego, heck spending the last two years with the guy, he knew that personally, but degrading people… not just low lives who waste their lives away, but everyone?
How come he's never seen this before?
Sena was appalled, but mostly shocked… not with just Agon, but himself. 'Why didn't I see it… was I turning a blind eye… no… it's different, it's like-' Sena's train of thought was interrupted by Takami.
"Yes, but it's a shock to see that he didn't attack you"
"…I've been friends with him for over two years…" Sena stated, he looked down at his shoes that Agon got him… 'Damn…' during those times he's been with Agon it's always been them talking about fun stuff, or about women or football… never about other people (besides the women) so in truth, it seemed like Agon was hiding that side of himself from Sena.
That's when Sena remembered one time when he told Agon he had to visit Habashira… Agon made a face and scoffed, but kept his mouth shut, Unsui was there, and he seemed a bit shock, he was staring at Agon like Agon had grown another head.
'So that's why… but why?' Sena didn't know… but right now, he didn't want to think about it… That's when he got a phone call… but he knew who it was from, from the ringtone he had set up.
He picked up his phone, and immediately heard the shouts of rage, Agon demanded Sena not associate with those Oujou bastards and that was putting it very very very nice terms. Which caused Sena to yell back saying he could do whatever he fuckin' feel like doin' and it continued on like that until Sena had enough, and shut off his phone.
"…" Takami and Sakuraba were silenced by the colorful language Sena spewed out, but also by the dark aura that emitted from the chibi.
"Maybe I should decide on a different high school to go to…" Sena predicted that this wouldn't be the last of these spats with Agon, not until the older teen changed his ways.
"Why don't you join Oujou?" Takami offered, Sena turned suddenly, like he just remembered that the two were still standing there.
Sakuraba was shocked by Takami's boldness, on one hand he had seen Sena's speed and strength; on the other hand… they would have to deal with …Agon.
"Naw, Agon'll pull some nasty shit on you guys… I can't go to Zokugaku either… Agon will murder them all…" Sakuraba swallowed, as he stepped away from the darkening Chibi.
"And that place is a dump!" Sena shouted, and nodded, causing the mood to loosen, and Takami to chuckle. "Know any place that's close by here at the same time not, and also relatively easy to get into, but at the same time in the background, cause Agon'll expect me to go to some fancy schools like I don't know Teikoku or sometin'"
"Teikoku? !" Takami and Sakuraba exclaimed.
"Yeah, I got a letter the other day, but declined cause it was too far… and because I thought I was goin' to Shinryuji…" Sena sighed.
"…How about Deimon Koukou?" Takami offered, remembering to their practice match. 'Even with Sena on their team, it'll just be one extra person… and Musashi's gone anyway…' Clearly Takami didn't know about Sena's luck or people skills, meaning he draws people to him.
"Never heard of it, what's it like?" Sena asked, and for the remainder of their walk to Sena's house (which Takami insisted on) talked about the school, and explained how everyone who applies gets in, but since Sena was applying so late he should check, just to be on the safe side.
TBC…
KH: Ah... did anyone notice that Sena's skateboard has gone missing...
(Mysterious person walks off with the skateboard that crashed into him. 'I'm fuckin' keepin' this!')
