Army Of Insanity
Chapter 1: The Start of Something Fabulous

"We try chasing down ways to further our dream, but then we trip over people on the narrow path that winds~"

"Oh oh! I know that one! It's the FMA theme!"

"Bingo, but which season?" Ice blue eyes flashed as a giddy blonde made an 'L' with her tan hand and pointed it at her friend. She wore the boy's uniform, as did her friends, and a stick of Strawberry Pocky sat on her lips.

"Oh come on Shinju, not even Mari will know that!" The second blonde, her hair more white then the others, the spiky strands sticking out from under her baseball cap, rolled her deep blue eyes at Shinju. The two looked alike, almost like sisters. Well… one looked like a sister and the other looked like she could be the brother with the outfit and hat she was wearing. Albeit it was purposeful.

"Sorry to prove you wrong Diann, but… Season one baby!" The only brunette laughed happily, twirling one of her light brown strands around her finger before letting it fall back into place, the blue tips brushing the small of her back.

"I told you to call me De-nii-kun remember?" The white-blonde one half whispered before smacking the other upside the head.

"Damnit. Okay, next… Um~ was so happy when you smiled. Your smile breaks through the clouds of gray~"

"Oh, I know that! Fruits Basket!"

"Bingo! So the score is Mari 3 – De 2."

"Um, excuse me ladies, and erm… sir." Mari, Diann, and Shinju glanced up at the teacher who was now glaring down at them. "Would you pay attention?"

"Well~" Mari's eyes flashed as she looked up at the teacher. "We will if you answer this one question for us~" The teacher glanced nervously between the evilly smiling girls before frowning at Mari.

"Fine, what?"

"Why doesn't glue… stick to the inside of the bottle?" Mari high-fived Shinju and Diann before they all turned to raise their eyebrows at the teacher.

"I-I don't know… why?" Shinju frowned and leaned on her elbows.

"We asked you… You ain't supposed ta ask us back."

"Don't back talk me Sumiko-san."

"Go eat a rock." The teacher glared angrily at Shinju before returning to the front of the classroom. Diann sighed and patted her pissed-off friend's hand worriedly.

"Shin-koi (1), you really should watch how you talk with the teacher… I don't want you getting suspended again."

"Don't worry about her De-nii-kun, she'll just lie her way out of it~" Mari laughed and smiled smugly at Shinju, who puffed out her cheeks unhappily.

"Shut up."

"Fine… Blondie." Mari laughed louder as Shinju turned bright red, flushing at yet another blonde joke sent her way. She got way more hell for her blonde hair then Diann did, even though Diann was blonder. Teachers always thought she dyed it, not a shock since she dressed like a gangster.

"Be nice you two!" Diann grinned at the two, letting her motherly smile cool the two down. They sat down reluctantly, not wanting to go against their oldest friend.

"Buh~ so what do you two want to do today? Karaoke? Manga store?" Shinju rested her head on the desk and stared up at her two best friends. Mari and Diann glanced at each other, talking telepathically about what to do.

"I don't know, what do you want to do Ri-chan?" Diann asked Mari, who was rubbing her green–blue eyes as she watched Shinju twirl her Pocky around her finger.

"I'm feeling rebellious… Let's do something fun~" Mari smiled wildly, earning an exaggerated sigh from Diann.

"Fine, but don't you and Shin get into another fight. I don't think I can handle that…" Shinju snorted and flashed a grin at Mari before returning her eyes to her twirling Pocky stick. Mari leaned back in her chair and laughed.

"Oh come on, those boys deserved getting beaten! No one's allowed to call Shinju a delinquent except for us!"

"They only did that 'cause she beat up the vending machine…" Mari and Diann cast a sideways glance at their violent friend, who was in her calm mode currently.

"D-De-kun!" Three pairs of eyes turned to look at the group of girls that gathered at the edge of the desk that they were sitting at. Mari and Shinju exchanged looks before looking at Diann, who was fidgeting under the eyes of everyone.

"Y-yes ladies?" The sound of Diann's soft politeness caused many if not all of the girls to swoon, excluding Mari and Shinju.

"We were wondering if…" The blushing girls glanced at each other before shutting their eyes tight and squealing out their question. "If you would join the Host Club?"

The white-blond girl looked with hopeful eyes at her two friends, who averted their eyes, leaving her to fend for herself. It was, after all, her problem for acting like a guy in the first place. Shinju eventually let her eyes drift back to Diann, whose eyes pleaded silently for help.

"I'll make him go later and ask about it… Just leave the boy alone, he's at a very sensitive age and it would be best not to disturb him." The girls squealed happily before taking their big yellow-mushroom butts back to their seats. Shinju quickly stood up on her chair and planted her foot on the desk, giving a big 'f-off', middle finger to the girl's backs. Mari pulled down her bottom eyelid and stuck out her tongue.

Diann dropped her head to the desk and sighed. Sometimes, it was just plain difficult not to tell the always-hopeful girls that she herself, was a girl. Shinju rubbed her on the head, sitting back down in the chair. Mari pouted at Diann, wrapping her friend in a tight hug, causing Shinju to whine slightly.

"I want some huggin' time… Hey! Icy-chi, come give me some huggin'!" The red-head that sat in the corner looked up at the smiling blonde and couldn't help but blush. He made his way towards the girls and stood there, allowing Shinju to tackle him in a hug. She laughed happily before climbing onto his back.

"Hehe, now you're even more like… That guy you look up to… What's 'is name? Mori something or other." Mari glanced up at Shinju, almost thinking she said Mari instead of Mori.

"I still don't get why you look up to him so much Kasanoda~" Ritsu Kasanoda, still blushing from hearing he was like his idol, didn't know how to answer Mari's sudden question, so he just stood there.

"Don't harass Super-Nova about who he looks up too!" Diann semi-shouted, laughing.

"Why the heck does he have so many nicknames…?" Shinju asked herself, not really caring who answered. But, to her surprise and amusement, Mari answered.

"Cause this guy… is just that awesome." Diann, Shinju, and Mari all looked at each other, then at Ritsu, who was blushing again and then back at each other, nodding in approval.

"Hey, De-nii-kun, Ri-chan, Icy-chi~ I'm headin' home first! I'll pick up groceries…" Shinju waved happily to her three friends before booking it out the door. They watched her for a minute in silence.

"…A week of lunch tickets she gets lost." Mari retorted, slyly looking at Ritsu and Diann. Diann grinned back and slapped Mari a high-five.

"I'm in on that, what about you Super-Nova."

"Uh, sure…" A tap on Ritsu's shoulder caused him to jump slightly, turning to see the girl that was looking at him and Diann.

"Ummm... Why does De-kun call you Super-nova?" Ritsu blushed and looked back at his friend, who he thought was really a guy…

"Because... He says that the sky wasn't good enough for a star like me..." The red-head's voice shook a bit when he talked, proving that he found it just as cute as the girl, who was screaming 'Moe!', did. Mari cracked up laughing and Diann shrugged with a small blush. It was true after all. He is pretty amazing.

Meanwhile, Shinju was wandering around the street three miles from her, Diann, and Mari's apartment, lost.


(1)- Koi: Adjective, addressing someone as 'love.' Ex: Hello, love! Or in Diann's motherly way: Now love, please be careful!
