Chapter 4: Later That Day…
As soon as Yuki and Kyo Sohma heard those names something in them pulsated, something familiar, making them freeze for a moment.
"Aiden, you can sit next to Kyo. Kyo Sohma please raise your hand. I would also like to announce that Alarice is your new second chair class representative. So you can sit next to this class' first chair representative Yuki. Yuki Sohma please raise your hand." Both boys raised their hands and the girls took their seats. Alarice was unnerved by something and so was Aiden. Yuki and Kyo also had this feeling that something just wasn't quite right.
Meanwhile in classroom 1-D, a tall, red-haired, green-eyed girl was slouching in front of the class. No one could take their eyes off of her, because she was wearing a boy's uniform. Next to her stood a shorter, cute, stubborn-looking girl, with shoulder length dirty blonde hair. After Tempest and Caira were introduced to the class, Tempest was forced to sit behind Hatsuharu Sohma, while Caira sat to the right of a blonde haired kid name Momiji Sohma: All four feeling the same ominous cloud of emotions that their cousins had felt.
"Well that was fun, don't you think Aiden?" asked Alarice smiling, as they walked down the hall to meet their younger cousins. Alarice was smiling because she was being noticed by all of the boys in the school. She just loved the attention.
"I felt sick, let's just get the other two and go eat, I am hungry." Proclaimed Aiden in a poor mood. Just then they spotted Tempest and Caira heading their way. They were just about to leave to find a nice spot for lunch when a senior boy with two other girls stopped them.
"Excuse me but I am Makoto Takei, Student body president. As president I can not allow you Tempest Taiyou, class 1-D, to wear a boy's uniform," he proclaimed in a haughty manor. "Oh yeah, what are you going to do about it? Punk." sneered Tempest angrily. Dumbfounded, for a lose of words, he jumped back, "It is against the student dress code and I must enforce these rules out of fairness for the other students." "I'll tell you what you can do with those rules. You can shove them up your…"
Tempest was cut off when Caira slapped her hand over her mouth before she could finish her statement. "I must apologize for my cousin's rude behavior. However, she did get special permission to wear the male attire. I hope she did not offend you." Piped in the sweet and enchanting words of Alarice. Completely taken back by this beautiful girl, Makoto just continued to look at her in awe. "Umm, yeah well we've got to go eat. See you later." Aiden spouted.
"That was close. Hey, Tempest why don't you just throw some guy in the pool instead of picking a fight with the school's president, you idiot." Bantered Caira. "I know you can throw that damn Momiji kid in the pool. That will dampen this spirits." Caira laughed sardonically as the picture unfolded in her head. "Ha! Like I would waste me time on the little brat. I would go after that white and black haired kid, something about him really ticks me off." Said Tempest in an attempt to explain her rage.
As they gathered their lunches they were looking for a place to eat. Looking around, all they found were eyes; everyone's, especially the boys, just watching them.
"Oh man! There is no place to eat. I'm so unnerved, first the damn, little, hyper-active blonde bouncing ball, and now lunch…….." Caira started shaking.
"Come on, the goat is going to flip out and really give everyone something to look at." Tempest said while pushing Caira out side. While out side, the four found a large tree, right next to the outside swimming pool. Aiden, the ram, chose jumped up into the tree to sit on the only low branch. Caira, the goat, took the farthest position from the ram as possible while still under the tree. Alarice, the siren, took the place right under the ram. Tempest, the bull, sat a-ways from the trunk, just relaxing.
Lunch was winding down, and Aiden finally asked the question that was on everyone's mind. "So, what's going on with those Sohma guys?"
"How the hell should I know? They just give me the most unnerving feeling!" Caira shouted.
"How should we know? Hay, Alarice do you think we should tell someone like Vanya or something?" Tempest asked with a concerned look in her eyes.
Lifting up her head, opening her eyes to look up at the sky, and turning her head to look at the roof of the school bringing an all too familiar black and white haired kid into view. Noticing Alarice, Hatsuharu immediately turned his head away fearing unwanted eye contact.
"I don't think so! We can deal with this on our own." Alarice says seriously, not taking her eyes off the roof. "Besides, I believe they feel then same thing we do. I want to show this whole school who has the power over the masses. I am not going to let those Sohmas side track me from that goal." She continues while showing the sweet smile she loved to show off.
'She will be mine!' Thought Gechi, staring out at Alarice from inside one of the classrooms. 'But, I know I am not the only one with this on my mind. The club is already forming and I will be damned if anyone besides me takes the lead. We will have power and influence and I will have her for my own.'
"President Gechi, we have almost a third of the school in the club. All we have left to do is decide on a name. No one can agree, so we whant your option." One of the younger boys stated plainly."We will be the 'Goddess Alarice Fan Club', for she is a goddess among girls." Gechi answer in triumph. Nodding is head, he continued to think 'Yes, that is who we are, and we shall protect her from other men.'
"Yuki, I don't understand this feeling when the Taiyou girls are around." Momiiji announced to the group. "Yeah, it is really confusing, it is like I feel them when they are around, and it is like a vibe." Hatsuharu chimed in after turning his head away from the four girls looking up at them every so often."I know what you mean; it scares me to think if Miss Hanajima can feel it too. But no one else feels it but us four." Yuki replied still wondering what is it about the Taiyous that sets them off. "Do you think we should tell someone like Hatori, or Shigure?" Momiji asked very quietly."WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING? What are they going to do, make them disappear because we don't feel right about them? They're living people! Besides we can take care of this." Kyo shouted in annoyance. "Stupid cat, we might have to tell them some time." Yuki retorted. Just then the bell rings, signaling the end of lunch. "Lets go. We can deal with this problem later." Hatsuharu states walking to the door.
