Kyoko thought about it, for a moment or two, then smiled. "Great idea! It can get both of us what we want" she said, smiling. She had never actually gone out with anybody because she was always so busy, until she met Sho who she thought loved her, but she didn't count that.
"What a great idea!" she said. Tesla smiled. "Alright. Now when we get to the school, we're gonna have to find Sho and Nnoitra. You're gonna have to do stuff like hold my hand and stuff, but I won't make you do anything...ahem...wierd, okay?"
"Sounds like a plan!" she said smiling. "You are so clever! Did anyone ever tell you that?" she asked. "Nnoitra did...once." Tesla said, a tone of sadness in his voice. He soon perked up and then grabbed Kyoko's arm."I'm excited! let's go!"
Kyoko yelped as he grabbed her arm so suddenly and pulled her along. "I can see you're really excited! My plan is working perfectly" she said. "Cause I'm so clever! Haha, take this, Szayel!" Tesla said smiling proudly. "Oh yeah!" she said. "Um, wait? How are we getting back to school? I normally just walk, but how did you get here?"
Tesla laughed. "Sonido!" he yelled, and soon they were traveling at mind blowing speeds down the street, toward the school. When they appeared in front of the school, Kyoko looked at where she was. "What the crap just happened?" she asked.
"It's a special power us Arrancar have that allow us to travel at the speed of light. Impressive, huh?" Tesla said. "Interesting....might take a while to get used to though!" Kyoko said, wondering how that happened. She smiled, and then saw Sho and his manager flirting in front of the school building. "Look who's here" she said, looking over at them, showing Tesla where they were.
"Oh, Sho!" he whispered, "Hold my hand." He grabbed Kyoko's hand and walked over to where Sho and his manager stood. "Oh, Kyoko, I love you so much!" he almost yelled, "I know you love me, too! Can you tell me about that ex of yours again?" Tesla said, acting it out pretty well.
Kyoko felt like she was going to burst out laughing, but tried to hide it. "What ex? Oh yeah, the stupid one! Well, that is pretty much all you can use to describe him...or should I say it?" she said laughing with him.
Sho saw them, talking amongst themselves, assuming they were going out. "What? You and that dude? You only met him like a few hours ago! Wow, you really are more stupid than I thought you were!" Sho said laughing.
"And you" he said pointing at Tesla. "Your stupid for going out with that loser!" he said. Tesla hugged Kyoko."How do you know we just met a few hours ago? Don't judge. I love Kyoko, so back off." He pushed Sho back. Kyoko smiled and put her head on his shoulder. "And you better not be calling him stupid...or else" she said.
Tesla smiled. "You don't wanna mess with me, buddy." he said, pointing at the sword strapped to his belt. He never let his zanpaktou go. Kyoko looked up at him.
"It would be so brave of you to kill him right now, but I wouldn't suggest it. He's probably to stupid to even realize that he would be dead anyway. So don't try to hurt his brain even more than it probably already hurts taking all of this in." she said, smiling even more.
Shotaro had anger in his face, because inside he was feeling so jealous that someone was with Kyoko. "Kyoko, can I talk to you for a second?" he asked. Tesla patted Kyoko on the back. "It's working!" he whispered into her ear. "Yup" she said smiling. "Do you think I should talk with him, or not?" she asked him.
"Go!" Tesla said. "If he tries anything, I'll be right here." "Ok!" She said. "I'll miss you" she told him as she walked over to Sho. "So..." she said. "H-how could you be going out with someone?" he asked, her practiacally shouting it in her face. "Because I really like him a lot" she said. "But I like you!" he shouted , then covered his mouth.
Tesla could hear, and smirked at every insecure word coming out of Sho's mouth. Kyoko knew that her plan was working, so she continued. "Yeah, well it really looks like it." she said back. "Well, I really do like you. And, I actually just discovered that I like you." he said. "Ha, well you're too late." she said standing back up.
"You can't go out with him!" he said pulling her back. "I can do whatever I want. You can't tell me what to do anymore" she said standing back up. "Please!" he begged. "Your gonna have to do better than that" she said standing up and walking back over to Tesla.
Tesla started laughing uncontrolably as he and Kyoko walked away. "If it works that well with Sho, it'll work wonders with Nnoitra!" he said still laughing. "Totally!" she said smiling, and then laughing.
"Sho's gonna be begging to get me back for a long time!" she said."Where do you think Nnoitra is?" she asked. Tesla spotted him. He was walking down the sidewalk, pacing back and forth."Over there." he said, clutching Kyoko's hand."Oh, Nnoitra-sama! Like my look?" he said, and Nnoitra looked him up and down, blushing."Ya look hot, Tes, honestly." he said, "Why are you holdin' HER hand?" he asked a bit mad. "She's my new girlfriend." Tesla said, and Nnoitra laughed nervously. "Oh is she now?"
Nnoitra cleared his throat. "Tesla, can I talk to you?" he said, and Tesla smiled at the deja-vu. Kyoko smiled at the deja-vu as well, and couldn't wait to see what happened next. Nnoitra grabbed Tesla's shoulders.
"Dun think I dun know what this is about, Tesla. You're trying to get me jealous, aren't ya?"
Tesla smiled.
"Whatever are you talking about, Nnoitra-sama? I just want to be more comfortable with my own skin."
Nnoitra frowned. "Tesla. You're hot. What happened?"
"How's Szayel?" Tesla asked, completely ignoring his question.
"I knew it! I knew it, Tesla!"
"I'm just asking."
"Shut up, Tesla. Szayel's pill effect wore off a little while ago. No reason to be jealous anymore. Now break up with Kyoko."
"Why should I? I love her."
"No you don't. Now come with me."
"But I have to go back to Kyoko."
Nnoitra veened. "Heck..." he murmured.
Kyoko was standing by a wall near them and could hear everything. "No, he's already figuring it out..." she said to herself. "Figuring what out?" Sho said from behind her. Kyoko turned around. "What are you still doing here?" she asked.
"Answer me, now" he said. "Answer what?" she asked. He grabbed her hand and squeezed it tightly. "I think you know what I'm talkin about, stupid!" he yelled. He was squeezing her hand so tightly it really hurt her. "Ow stop! Get away from me, your crushing my hand, ow!" she yelled trying to get out of his grasp.
"Answer me, you idiot!" he yelled in her face, as he grabbed her other hand and squeezed it as well. "Wrll that's a really nice way to treat a girl you like" she said. He threw her down on the cement ground, and she screamed out in pain. "Stop!" she yelled, with a tear in her eyes. "Maybe I changed my mind, you're worthless" he said. He walked away, leaving Kyoko on the ground, her head in pain, and bleeding alot.
Tesla glanced over at Kyoko. "KYOKO!" he cried, and rushed over to her."Are you okay?" he asked. Nnoitra, furious, picked him up by his collar and slugged him across the face. "I liked you, you bitch!" he screamed, then stormed off.
Kyoko looked up and felt the back of her head. "I...I'm so sorry, Tesla. I didn't know that this would happen..." Kyoko said, knowing that the whole plan was her idea, and her fault. "I need to go now...to get something for...umm..." she said as she stood up, and blood trickled down the back of her neck and she felt very sharp pains in her scull. She staggered for a moment, and walked over to a tree, felt lightheaded at the same time.
"Kyoko, you're hurt, bad." he said, grabbing Kyoko's shoulder, "Besides, I got what I wanted. Nnoitra liked me. I'm over him now. What I'm worried about...is you." He wiped his bloody mouth, but worse of all...
He felt a pain deep in his heart, and knew that he was in for a really bumpy ride.
"But it's my fault! I'm the one that came up with the whole stupid idea...and it's only led to disaster" she said. "And, i'm fine. I've been hurt worse. I am really and truly sorry" she said looking down.
Tesla smiled. "If it makes you feel better, you're forgiven. But I really should be the one apologizing for coming up with this stupid idea." Kyoko looked away for a bit then back at him. "Why should you apoligize? It's not your fault that I changed your look...well technically my freind did, but that's not the point! I came up with the idea to change your look...and to make you totally unavaialble to Nnoitra and got you hurt." she said.
"Then I came up with the idea for you to be my girlfriend, Sho got mad, Nnoitra got mad, and we both got hurt. So I guess...the blame is on both of us..." Tesla said.
"Yeah i guess so...." she said still looking away. "Are you ok?" she asked looking up, remembering Nnoitra punched his face and he was bleeding. Tesla wiped his nose. "I'm fine. We have high regeneration abilities." he said, repairing his broken nose, "God, Nnoitra's fist is haaard..." Kyoko sighed.
"Well I'm glad you are ok" she said, feeling the blood on the back of her head with her hand,the back of her head caked with blood, and then her hand was red when she looked at it. "Oh my gosh, you're bleeding bad! We need to get you to the ER!"Tesla said, worried.
"I don't really know if that's so important though..." she said standing up, staggering, and fell back onto the ground feeling quite dizzy. "Well, I guess a visit to the doctor wouldn't hurt" she said. She stood up once more, almost fell over but grabbed onto the tree and tried to stand.
Tesla scooped Kyoko up in his arms. "Don't worry. Just close your eyes." he said, then sped off, using Sonido. He knew where the nearest clinic was and got there in less than five minutes. "Wow that whole traveling at the speed of light thing is gonna take some getting used to!" Kyoko said, smiling faintly.
Tesla carried her into the office of the doctor's. "Excuse me..." he said, softly to the person at the front desk, "She hit her head and she's bleeding badly...can you squeeze us in?" The only time that Kyoko had been carried around somewhere that she could remember last was by Ren when she broke her ankle. He took her back to the studio, where she then played a role in a Japanese family scene...and performed a Japanese tea ceremony with her broken ankle.
The clerk smiled."I'm sure we can do something for such a sweet boyfriend." Tesla filinched. "She's not my girlfriend. She's just a friend."The clerk smiled. "Just take a seat."Tesla sat Kyoko down and sat down in a chair. "Tesla!" she said noticing that she was getting blood on his shirt.
"I'm so sorry" she said. Tesla looked down."It's fine. Really." he said, then waited, "Do you feel okay?"
"I've been better" Kyoko said, truthfully. The pain in her head came back worse than it already was. She grabbed her head, and closed her eyes tightly in pain. A doctor walked up to Tesla."You guys can come back now." he said. Tesla got up and brought Kyoko to the back. The doctor layed her down in a chair and checked the back of her head. He cringed when he saw the blood. "Ooooh, what happened here?" he asked.
"I, um....I just fell" she said not wanting the doctor to really know what happened. The room became a bit blurry to her and the pains in her head were attacking her like bricks falling on her head.
Tesla looked at the doctor with concern. "She has a concussion..." he said, handing her a pain pill, "And it's pretty bad, too." "Uh, thanks" she said as he dropped the pill into her hand. The room was becoming more blurry, and then she closed her eyes and saw nothing. No, she wasn't dead, just unconcious. Tesla touched her shoulder."Kyoko..." he said, no answer..."Damn."
The doctor looked at her like he'd seen the same thing a thousand times. "You can stay here until she wakes up." Kyoko could hear what they were saying as she fought to regain conciousness. She had flashbacks as she was in an unconcious state...flashbacks about what had that day. Sho being mean to her and mad at her, and she was thinking everything was her fault. She wished she could wake back up just to escape her memories. She started having flashbacks of her life and mainly about Sho all through her life.
Tesla sat anxiously. "Please wake up, Kyoko.." She heard him asking her to wake up, and she struggled to regain conciousness. She was practically screaming inside her head, but of course nobody heard her.
Tesla touched her shoulder."Her soul feels so troubled," He murmured. Kyoko could hear his words even more clearly now. "Mmmm-must wake up..." she was able to say sotfly. Although in her head she was screaming it. Tesla smiled. "Yes, Kyoko, wake up..." he said softly. "Got to...wake......" she said softly, trying to get more words out, coming back slowly to conciousness with her eyes still closed.
The doctor smiled at Tesla."You encourage her, it looks like." he said, and Tesla smiled. "I try." Kyoko's eyes finally fluttered open and she could still barely talk though. "I..." she managed to say. Tesla wrapped his arms around her neck.
"You woke up! Much earlier than I expected!" he said, squeezing her a bit more then necessary. Kyoko smiled as her freind embraced her, and the room was brighter now that it was. "Th-thanks" she said. "How's the pain?" he said, unhanding her.
"Um...getting better" she said, not feeling any pain anymore. "Great!" he said, grabbing her hand, unintentionally, "C-can you stand?" he asked. "I wouldn't know if i could or not" she said, then fell back. "I'm guessing I can't stand" she said.
Tesla smiled. "No problem," he said, picking her up again."What do I owe ya, doctor?"he asked. "Not a thing." The doctor said smiled and carried Kyoko out the office."Where do you live?" he asked. "Um, I live at Darumaya. It's an apartment building where I used to work part time." she said.
Tesla took her home and set her on her couch. "Do you want me to stay?" he asked. "If you'd like to stay, you are more than welcome to." Kyoko said politely. Tesla smiled, then took a seat beside her. "You know, there's a dance coming up..." he hinted at, blushing.
"There's a dance coming up? Really?" she asked, sounding excited. Tesla smiled. "Yeah...and I was wondering if you'd...uh...go with me? I mean...it'd make Sho even more jealous...Nnoitra too." He bit back his tongue. "Sure!" Kyoko said, then realized she had nothing dance appropriate to wear.
"Um, well...I'd probably have to get something to wear...but I don't have anything. And I don't know if if I would have enough money to buy a dress, get shoes, makeup, get my hair done or something..." she said.
Tesla smiled. "You will? Great! And don't worry. You look great without makeup or any of that stuff." Kyoko smiled. "R-really?" she asked. "Y-yeah...most girls do..." Tesla said, insecure.
"Oh...um well ok. I would still need a dress...all I have is a Kimono but it's just the plain white one I got when I was working here at Darumaya. And that wouldn't work...other than that I only have a few outfits, no dresses. And I really should get one..." she said, wondering where she would get the money. "Well, I'm sure the people you work with will at least let you borrow one. I can help you pick, if you want." Tesla said.
"Oh right! I totally forgot! But, I'll pick one out on my own and it can be a secret" she said smiling. Tesla smiled. "Oh, okay." He said. "Yup" Kyoko said. "So where do you live?" Tesla stopped. "I don't really...uh...have a place to stay. Believe it or not...I'm not really from this world." He waited for her to laugh.
"Not from this world? Well I mean I knew you did look a little different than most people from here, but I thought you were just from a different country, not a different world." she said.
"Kyoko, theres a hole in my eye that you can see right through. I mean, look at Nnoitra!" Tesla said, kind of surprised that she hadn't already noticed. "Oh...um...right" she said. "Still, if you have no place to stay while you are here, you are more than welcome to stay here" she said.
Tesla smiled. "Really?!" he said, so relieved he had a place to stay, "I'd be honored! I promise, it'll be like I'm not even here!" Kyoko smiled. "That sounds great...just don't tell anyone where I live...or some people would start talking about it...certain people might overhear..." she said, talking mainly about Sho, who she had no intentions coming to her house. "Yeah, I know." Tesla said, smiling. His life is definitely taking a turn for the better.
"Awesome. So, do you need anything while your here?" she asked. "There's a store right down the street if you need anything." Kyoko said a bit cheerfully. "No, I'm fine. I don't need food or anything like that." he said, nervously. "Oh um ok" she said.
"I was going to go to the market later to get myself some food if you would like to come with me." Tesla smiled at her."If you're feeling fine, I'd love to go." he said, putting a hand on Kyoko's shoulder. Kyoko smiled. "Ok! I just needed to buy some more rice and some tea. I'm almost out." she said, standing up. Tesla smiled. "Okey dokey. And I'll help!"
"Yay!" Kyoko said and pulled him up off the couch. She grabbed her purse with a little money in it and walked toward the door. Tesla laughed. He really loved spending time with Kyoko...and now their roomates! What a twist of fate...he had forgotten completely about Nnoitra and Szayel.
Hmmm what shall happen in chapter four? Will Kyoko and Tesla fall for eachother? What will become of Tesla's grudge against Nnoitra now? I know it's getting a little out of character and me and my friend don't own these characters, but you gotta admit, it's really awesome! So please keep reading!
