A/N: I DON'T OWN BEELZEBUB (Jesus I can't believe i have to do this for like, the whole story but it's necessary)

Current Arc: Fox Lady Delinquent

Chapter 5: Boredom is the source of Misunderstandings

"Ahhhhhhh... I'm bored."

Kitsune yawned loudly before slumping back against the wall lazily. Her half-open eyes scanned around her, resting on Oga and Furuichi, who were fighting over a croquette sandwich.

"Hey! That's mine!"

*munch munch swallow*"Crap! Where am I? Must've dozed off..."

Well, it was more like a one-sided argument instead of a fight.

Bored, Kitsune's eyes moved to Berubo, who was drinking a bottle of milk. She couldn't imagine a cute kid like that being the Daimao's son. Sure, he had weird green hair and lightning sparks flying when he cried, but at least he was cute and adorable at some times.

Suddenly, the rooftop door slammed open, and a group of thugs wearing hoods covering their eyes approached the trio, their hands clutching metal bats. Oga immediately snapped from his slumber, and Furuichi stopped mourning over his croquette sandwich.

The leader stepped forward. "We have a message from Himekawa-san. He wants Kitsune Kurokage to come with us. Now."

"Huh? What does this bastard want with me?" Kitsune stood up, her eyes dangerous and cold. The thugs, apart from their leader, retreated the moment they met her eyes.

The leader looked extremely pissed off now. But Kitsune saw fear in his eyes amidst the rage and fury, and took this to her advantage. Smirking, she stepped forward menacingly, and the thugs, even their leader, scurried back, only to find themselves backing against the wall.

"Listen up good, brats. You better tell this Himekawa that if he wants to see me, he'd better come to see me himself," She stopped to deliver a powerful punch on the leader's face, who staggered back against his lackeys, who caught him just in time. "And not to hide behind a bunch of his own lackeys like some coward. Now scram."

The thugs did so reluctantly, their glares not visible under their hoods as they knocked on the abandoned classroom's door, entering upon command.

"Hi-Himekawa-san..."

Himekawa turned to the doorway, his hand poised to throw the dart in his fingers. "What?"

Their leader stumbled forward. "Kit-Kitsune Kurokage refuses.. to meet you now... She says she wants you t-to see her personally... Ough!"

"L-Leader!"

The other thugs caught him again, but he was already coughing out blood, and the bruise on his face was swelling. Himekawa looked down at them from his seat, then in a flash, threw the dart, which hit a perfect 10 on his dartboard.

"You say she wants me to meet her personally?"

"Y-Yeah..."

Himekawa's mouth twitched slightly. How dare this inferior brat, request-no, demand to see him personally instead of obeying his order? He was Tatsuya Himekawa of the TKKH! He was far more superior than anybody else!

Then again...

Himekawa gave an order to the rest of the thugs before resuming to his darts game, a smirk playing on his lips.

... this was going to be so much fun.

Kitsune strolled back home, a croquette in her hand and a bottle of iced coffee in the other. Nothing in particular really happened today, just a couple of fights, heads buried in walls and a bunch of thugs threatened her today. So far, a pretty normal and boring day. But, she could go down to Oga's house for a while to hang out...

"Nah, his house is all the way down the street. Too much of a haaah... hassle..." She paused to yawn again and took another bite of her croquette. Man, were those things awesome. Then again, Berubo was at Oga's place, and she had already taken a liking to him. Kitsune would often teach him a couple of fighting techniques(She was a black belt in Taekwondo and other martial arts) and he would watch with amusement and interest, sometimes he would trying punching the air as well, or even exclaim in happiness. During those times, Kitsune found him especially adorable.

"I guess I'll walk the extra mile to see Berubo... better buy a bunch of croquettes if I'm going there first..." She mumbled and turned back to sprint towards the shop, not noticing that a familiar group of thugs were struggling to restrain a silver-haired boy and knocking out another blonde girl...

"Oh! Kitsune-chan! Good to see you!"

"Da!"

Kitsune nodded silently, glancing up at Oga, who happened to be very tall indeed(Kitsune was just about a head or two shorter than him). "I brought snacks. I couldn't come over empty-handed."

Berubo began waving his arms in excitement once he saw his favorite food inside the little paper bag. Kitsune, unknowingly, smiled a little to herself at the sight of Berubo being so happy. Oga looked stunned for a second, before breaking into a grin. "So you can smile."

Kitsune's smile vanished instantly, then she frowned slight at Oga. "You're much more friendly than at school when you're home." To which, Oga just shrugged and closed the door behind her, when a head popped up from the living room doorway. "Tatsumi, who's at the-"

Kitsune looked at the girl with short, brown hair similar to Oga's with no expression. The girl's words seemed to have dried up in her throat, her mouth opening and closing, but no words coming out. Oga immediately cut in, as if he was trying to defend himself from some guilty judgement,"Oh, er... this is my friend from school, Kitsune Kurokage. And er... ah-" He seemed to have run out of words himself.

The tension was so thick in the living room, I could've taken a knife and cut it.

Finally, the female brunette leapt up from her seat and shook Kitsune's hand so hard that the raven-haired girl was almost flung into the ceiling from the overdose of hospitality. "I'm Misaki Oga, Tatsumi's sister. Good to meet ya'!" She grinned, a smile that was so similar to Oga's.

"Kitsune... Kurokage," Kitsune replied as politely as she could. She remained emotionless, since she didn't feel like smiling right now. Oga stood at the side, preoccupied with Berubo pulling at his hair while Misaki continued blabbering off questions to a rather shocked Kitsune, who answered them with a little difficulty until Misaki pulled her in closer, whispering something to her that made Kitsune go extremely red in the face instantly.

"I don't fancy Oga at all. He's just a friend," She regained her calmness almost immediately, but still felt rather uncomfortable.

"Oh, come on! My brother wouldn't bring girls home unless their special! Maybe he had the hots for you," Misaki winked at the younger teen.

Kitsune shook her head. "His brain is filled with delinquent thoughts. Anyway, I don't really like Oga, I only came to see Berubo."

She sighed disappointingly, but Misaki let go of Kitsune and grinned at her before getting up to leave. At that moment, Kitsune began to stare suspiciously at Oga, wondering if she could even like someone like him.

Kitsune shivered at the thought of her and Oga dating. It definitely killed her imagination there.
