Hiruma will kill me if I buy the rights to Eyeshield 21

Note: This doesn't involve much of HiruMamo moments but this chapter would be a great foundation of the upcoming chapters.

Mamori's father came home with a different aura. The couple was lounging at the sofa watching television, well mostly Mamori was watching while Hiruma was being himself and was polishing the gun he had in his hand. It was Saturday and they both decided to take a break from Amefuto but the decision was mostly Mamori since Hiruma could never leave Amefuto all alone. Back to the issue, Mamori's father was grumpy when he arrived. His character was so off that even Hiruma who normally couldn't care less had taken a pause from his polishing.

"What's wrong dad?" she asked with concern.

"I just got fired." Her dad exclaimed in the most annoyed tone she had ever heard him use. Her father launches himself in the sofa between the two and got the gun from Hiruma. Mamori cringe in fright, her father plus a gun was one equation she didn't want to see. Hiruma took action in an instant and retrieved his favorite gun. He wasn't much concern about the fucking father but he was concern about his girlfriend. People do stupid things when they are depressed after all.

"Where are you going Youichi-kun?" she asked when Hiruma got up from the sofa. He turned around for her and with the use of their mysterious telepathy; he gave her an answer and then continued on his way. She sighed, she knew it would be for the best of everyone if Hiruma left especially that he was equipped with armory but still it would have been better if she had some help in cheering up her father.

"Does loyalty equate to nothing now a day Mamori? I've been working in that company since I graduated college and they just kicked me out as if I was just hired the other day!"

"Dad it's not your fault"

"Damn right it isn't! Hey your boyfriend got blackmail material to our company right?"

"Dad you are not going to ask Hiruma-kun to blackmail that company!"

"It's about time I make use of your boyfriend." Her father said walking towards the kitchen.

"Dad I love you but I would never let him do that." She kept on insisting as she followed her father. Where was her mom when she needed her the most? Her father was almost as thick headed as Hiruma could get. If he was so determined to do such thing, he would find a way to ask Hiruma to do such horrible thing. And she would be damned if she would let her father stoop that low. It was not like she was saying that Hiruma was low for blackmailing people, it's just the way he is but her father is a morale guy.

"I'll tell mom if you would let Hiruma do that." And that was the end of the discussion.

oooooooooo

Mamori was on the bench, recording the Wizards practice game against Tokyo University. Of course they were leading 21-9. She was a bit distracted, her father had been fired for a week now and the more days passed by he would become more and more depressed. Of course she would have to give him credit for he was still looking for job but it proved to be harder. Most companies were looking for younger applicant and her father was well to put it bluntly old.

"Fucking manager, get your act together!" Hiruma shouted even though he was just in front of her. She apologized back but he scowled saying something about slacking off on the job. She can't do a thing about it though; she was concern about her father. Her mother could only do so much by being with him and supporting him in this tough time but her dad had been short tempered always restless, cursing even. Hiruma was not only rubbing into her, but he was also rubbing into her family. Maybe she had to lessen their date nights at their house.

The final whistle was blown and the Wizards won the practice game 28-16. Hiruma called for a huddle at the bench, he was standing next to her. When everyone was accounted for, he scolded everyone. Sure they won the game, but Tokyo University was not as tough as Enma and to have such results were just a disgrace to him. How could they claim that they were the champion of the rice bowl for 2 years now when they were having a hard time getting 20 points lead against a team like Tokyo University.

"You fucking newbies don't fucking get ahead of your fucking self. Who the fucks are you kidding? This team doesn't have room for fucking slackers and that goes to you to fucking manager." Hiruma scolded. At the mention of her name, Mamori went back to the world of the living. She should have seen it coming, of course she would not be excuse of her behavior. Above all things she was the manager of Saikyoudai Wizards.

"Calm down Hiruma. We'll train these guys to the bone tomorrow. I'll take responsibility of it." Yamato exclaimed rescuing the poor souls of the new recruit. Hiruma hissed but nodded in agreement, if there was someone who was as dead serious as him in training it was Yamato though he would never equate to his Spartan ways. Hiruma went ahead of his team mates to the clubhouse not bothering to help with the cleanup. Too distracted to help with the team, Mamori sat back at the bench. He must have been pissed at her for leaving ahead of them.

"You know he was signaling you but you were too distracted to even notice." Yamato spoke.

"He had?" she blinked a thousand times.

"Yeah, so what's bothering you Anezaki-san?"

"Family stuff."

"Anything I could help you with?" Yamato offered. He was one of the most charming people she have ever met and so easy to get along with. Would it kill Hiruma to be like this on times like this?

"Nah, its fine."

Ooooooooooo

Hiruma was in his usual place with a laptop on his well lap, while Mamori was sitting by the table homework sprawled in front of her. She was done with the paper works Hiruma gave her for the day, so she was doing her homework. Normally, she would have left by now but sensing that her boyfriend was still angry at her she choose to stay and maybe calm him down.

"Fucking go home already"

"After you forgive me."

"Kekekeke, why would I fucking do that? You fucking ignored me fucking manager."

"I didn't mean to do that Youichi."

"Just fucking go home."

"Fine, if that's what you want!" Mamori fumed, getting her things not forgetting to slam the door behind her. When she was out, Hiruma pulled out his phone and made a call to an unknown number.

"I fucking need you to do something for me"

oooooooooo

"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you." Her father said on the phone before putting it down. Mamori just arrived seconds ago so she was not able to catch the conversation her father had on the phone.

"What was that about?" her mother asked from the kitchen.

"Good news, a company would want to interview me first thing tomorrow!" her father ran towards her mom, lifting her and turning in circles. Her parents after all this years, they still had that spark with them. It made her wonder if she would end up with Hiruma would they be like her parents. 'Nah' she told herself, Hiruma would never lift her and swirl her around but the spark she was hoping it would remain. Her parents continued giggling and kissed each other after going in circles, seriously she need not to see that.

"That's great news dad!" Mamori stated declaring her presence. Her parents were still hugging each other when they looked at her. They both smiled at her. Her father let go of her mother.

"I know we should celebrate! Mamori darling, why don't you invite Hiruma?" Madori stated with her new found excitement. Mamori cringe a bit with the name, she was certain he was still angry at her. Inviting him now would just ruin the celebration.

"Uhm, we shouldn't. His, ano how should I put it?"

"You got into a fight?" her father asked butting into the conversation.

"More like he got angry at me for not paying attention during practice."

"I'm pretty sure he would calm down soon, after all he does care about you."

oooooooooo

"Mr. Anezaki?"

"Hai"

"The president will see you now." The secretary led him to the room.

"Please do sit Anezaki-san." A young woman in her mid-twenties welcomed him. He reckoned that she was the president.

"Arigato"

"Tell me Anezaki-san why would this company hire you?"

"I've been working on sales at a toy company for 25 years…"

"Toys? You do realize that we're manufacturing armories here. Guns, bullets, life vest the like. Do you even know a single thing about armors?" the young woman mocked him.

"I know little about it, but I'm willing to learn more. With my experience on sale, I know I'd be a great help in the company."

"I guess you're hired then."

"Really? That's all?"

"Well, I do have this one question. How do you know Hiruma Youichi?"

"Hiruma? Did he blackmail you to hire me, because I can't accept the job if…"

"Don't get the wrong idea Mr. Anezaki. I'm just doing him a favor."

"Why would you do Hiruma a favor?"

"Answer my question first and I might answer yours."

"He's my daughter's boyfriend."

"Tche, that kid. Contacted me out of nowhere after all this years and not even bothering to tell me he has a girlfriend now." She hissed under her breath though Mr. Anezaki heard her.

"So, why would you do Hiruma a favor?"

"Because I'm his sister."
