Ultrabross's Vision
CHP 6: Annoyance
Through the doorway scampered Ichigo taking a seat near the front partially out of breath, "The students here are something else." First there was the girl with the pet bat which she transformed into a weapon using it on another student. Not long after two others tried to recruit him for some clan or something of the sort. In that moment, he didn't remember nor care only hoping he'd somehow get through the remainder of the day with some manner of normalcy. Another couple minutes passed before most students entered the classroom taking a seat.
Having nothing else to do with over a minute before class began, Ichigo uncovered the folded piece of paper from his pocket. With a pen in hand from his bag pack he filled out all required information including his dorm room number. The moment he set eyes on the sign that read Soccer Club he knew immediately that was the club for him. After signing off in the bottom right corner he folded the piece of paper placing it into his pocket. As with the two previous classes he got the vibe they wouldn't be asked to do much due to it being the first day, but pulled out a spiral notebook just in case.
"I think it's time we get started." The teacher up front used a finger re adjusting her glasses, "For those taking part in my class for the first time, my name is Miss Kagome. I will be your sensei for math for the entire year. If you ever need help solving something don't be afraid to ask, and I'm opened to after school sessions. Whatever it takes to make certain all of you pass."
While leaned back Ichigo tapped a pen over the desktop; his chin rested in the palm of his left hand. He listened to what she said but at the same time doused into his own little world. In the next instant she appeared through the doorway; the same girl from first hour. Ririko Kagome noticed the individual straightaway and recognized her, "Kurono Kurumu You're late, why is that?" She asked with crossed arms.
"Sorry it's just a couple of my friends were hurt an…"
"I don't want to hear your excuses, find someplace to sit so that I may continue." Kurumu slightly bowed her head taking a seat in the front row which happened to be right in front of Ichigo. From there Ririko continued to give instructions. Without even realizing Ichigo continued tapping his pen over the desk's surface, "Hold on a sec." He whispered with some manner of insight.
A little while ago just before the assembly the girl sitting in front of him presented him with the offer to join the newspaper club. And like a jerk he shot down both her offer and possible friendship because of the focus on his true mission; but in the following class met with a student by the name Tsukune Aono. As with Kurumu he spoke highly of the newspaper club even offering Ichigo to signup. That aside during his attack of the hollows there were several students laid out unconscious over the pavement and or grass surrounding the area. Because of all the commotion he didn't get the chance to take a look around, but at the point he set one of the victims down he caught a quick glimpse of someone from the corner of his eye. That someone looked a lot like Tsukune.
In that moment he discontinued the tapping of his pen leaning back.

"Since you're new here I'm guessing you probably haven't made any friends. I'm uncertain when it will start back up, but there is this thing called the Newspaper club."
"Newspaper club," Ichigo removed his hands from behind his head looking her in the face, "What is that supposed to be?"
"If you decide to join all details involving the club will be given to you then. My friends and I included are all part of it. You'd have a good time if you decided to join, not to mention you'd make new friends. So what do yah say?"
"That's right, Kurumu said friends and I. With Tsukune it wasn't much different," Ichigo sat up remembering back.

"This is your first day at Yokai, which probably means you don't have friends. If you ever consider joining a club, look no further than Newspaper Club. My friends and I are all a part of it; you should at least consider joining. Well guess I'll see you around." Tsukune spoke.
That was more than enough to link the two. He'd honestly figured that bit parting ways with Tsukune at the conclusion of second hour. Her comments upon entering the class about a couple friends being hurt made him wonder if one of those friends she referred to was Tsukune. He could hardly call the guy a friend of his seeing as they barely met. But still…he was interested to know more. Their first encounter didn't end well, and was aware her response to him could range from either good or bad but didn't think much of it, "Kurumu…" Tapping at her shoulder in a whisper he hoped she wouldn't go off on him.
Not too familiar with the voice she partially looked over her shoulder, "You!" She uttered, but not out of anger or excitement. Above all else she was surprised the two of them shared another class. Coupled with the way their first meet ended she didn't expect he'd try and speak with her so soon, "What?" She asked keeping her eyes on Ririko.
"Tsukune is he," Ichigo paused for a moment, and in that instant at the mention of Tsukune she turned facing him, "Is he ok?" Ichigo finished.
Though neither she nor Tsukune mentioned the other by name he was certain they were friends and members of the same club, "How do you know Tsukune?" She inquired with a peculiar twinkle in her eyes.
"Ah I don't think now is a good time to go…"
"Are you talking while I'm giving an overview of the class?!" Ririko yelled.
Ichigo's mouth dropped open noticing everyone's eyes on him, "I understand Kurumu Chan is a beautiful young lady, but you will not talk with her on my time understand! You can flirt with her as much you'd like after the bell rings." All students throughout laughed aloud causing Kurumu to blush hiding her face between her arms over the desk.
Out of annoyance Ichigo looked the other way rolling his eyes, "Yeah sure whatever you say, I won't speak another word."
"Good, then I shall continue," She smiled returning upfront continuing where she left off. In a little over a minute Ichigo again tapped at her back, "Is he trying to get us in trouble!" Kurumu thought to herself. Ripping a small piece of paper from her notebook she wrote a quick note crumbling it and letting it fall to the ground. She then kicked it backwards which Ichigo noticed slowly reaching down picking it up.
Making certain nobody watched he un crumpled the piece of paper, "Was unable to stay for long, so I don't know the severity of the conditions to Tsukune or any of the others attacked." He read silently tossing the note in a nearby trash after finishing. It was hard for Kurumu to sit still listening to all the rules and regulations. She was interested in speaking with Ichigo. How and when did he meet with Tsukune? And the fact he asked her directly about Tsukune's well being suggested Ichigo must have known she and Tsukune had some form of relationship.
That also meant he must have in some shape or form known about the attack which took place during the first lunch period. Unable to wait any longer Kurumu tore another piece of paper from her notebook sending him another note. For a while they communicated back and forth through notes. She asked all the questions whilst he answered them to the best of his ability.

"Tsuu…wake up Tsukune," His eyes shot open gazing at two of his closes friends/allies, "Ruby San, Moka San...how long was I out?" Tsukune put a hand to his head feeling dizzy. It was then he bit down on his tongue realizing both Moka and Ruby dressed in nurse outfits! Ruby he understood, but Moka!
"You took quite the beating Tsukune but with a lot of rest you should make a full recovery. I suggest you stay away from too much physical activity for a little while ok." Ruby informed rubbing at the lower part of his leg.
Sitting up Tsukune rubbed at his eyes wondering if he might be hallucinating, "Bbbu but what about Yukari Chan, Mizore and everyone else? How're all of them doing?" He could feel his adrenaline rise not understanding why Moka was up and about; not to mention she didn't seem to have a single scratch on her. Something was strange and he didn't like it one bit.
"It's time I check on the other patients, I'll leave Tsukune to you Moka San." Ruby spoke closing the long curtain.
"Oh don't you worry I'll take excellent care of Tsukune," Moka responded with a sinister grin bringing chills down Tsukune's back. He hadn't seen the particular look on her face ever.
He didn't know for certain but Moka never showed signs of a medical background, which had him worried why she was playing the role of a nurse, "Ah why exactly are you here Moka San," Tskune removed the sheets off his body, "Aren't you supposed to be in class?"
The instant he tried to step out of bed he noticed his ankles bounded by constraints, "Didn't I say I'd take care of you Tsukune?" Moka slowly walked toward him unbuckling each button to her uniform one by one, "Moka San…what are you doing?!"
"Don't act surprised, you and I have always wanted this." Moka eliminated the last button throwing the clothing off to the side observing Tsukune bleed from his nose. Moka stood before him wearing nothing but a black thong, stockings and matching bra. Pulling herself into the bed atop him she couldn't help but go red, "You will be my first Tsukune."
As she leaned in closer he put his hands out in front of her, "What are YOU DOING?! This is CRAZY. Did you even THINK THIS OVER?!"
"Ssshhh," She placed a finger over his lips, "No more talking."
Tsukune was neither smartest nor the strongest student at Youkai, but even he knew just how out of character her actions were. Out of desperation to stop things from going any further he grabbed hold of the Rosario around her neck forcing it off. It was then inner/true Moka positioned over him, "You were going to have sex with me without my consent?!"
"Consent! Wait hold on this wasn't my idea!"
Moka removed herself from the bed leaping upward, "Know your PLACE!"
Tsukune placed both hands out in front of him attempting to block the attack!
"Tsukune Wake up!"
Sweat ran down the side of his face and throughout much of his body rising from the bed, "It was all just a dream," He put a hand to his head, "Thank goodness."
"What dream?"
One of the Youkai nurses alongside Ruby stood on either side of Tsukune, "It's nothing to worry about Ruby San." He pulled himself out of bed relieved his ankles weren't tied down like they had been moments ago, "Hold on Tsukune you shouldn't be walking around just yet, you must rest a while longer."
"I feel fine," He argued heading for the exit, "Besides I should really be getting back to class." His vision was blurry but confident it'd return to normal with time. From his left Ruby stepped in front of Tsukune keeping him from going any further, "You might have a concussion, we can't allow you to leave until after more testing and some rest."
Though he wanted to leave, Tsukune knew she was right, "Ok," He replied with a sigh, "What of Moka San and everyone else that were attacked?"
"You're one out of six who has gained consciousness along with Yukari Chan. Everyone else is stable and should make a full recovery."
"That's good to hear." He said with relief.

The hour passed with all students being released to either their next class or lunch period. Kurumu walked side by side with Ichigo down the hall. Through the notes passed back and forth she was aware how Ichigo knew Tsukune, but still had one unanswered question, "How did you know Tsukune was hurt. I don't recall seeing you anywhere near the location where everyone was attacked?"
With both hands placed over the back of his head Ichigo thought quickly. The truth certainly wasn't an option in his book, "When heading to class I saw someone being dragged to the medical facility resembling him, had no idea it'd actually turn out to be him." Ichigo lied confident she'd buy in.
"Oh…ok." Together they turned down another hall, "What do you think of Youkai Academy thus far?" She asked gazing up at him.
His instant stop triggered her to jump, "Is everything ok Ichigo?"
"Them again!" Unfortunately it appeared they were headed his way, but felt calmed as they made a turn. Kurumu became worried when he didn't answer right away, "I'm perfectly fine, just a lot on my mind I guess."
She felt tempted to ask what but didn't feel it her place to do so, "Gin Senpai!" She called out running toward a specific individual positioned against a wall with crossed arms.
"Wow don't tell me that womanizer is one of her friends!" Ichigo's mouth dropped open while in his own train of thought. Because of the particular student he was caught in a rather uncomfortable situation involving two girls claiming to be Gin's girlfriend, "Tshh I'll catch up with her later." There was no telling how long her conversation would take and he didn't want to be late to his next class.
"You look good Kurumu Chan I'm glad you found me." Gin said.
Both talked for a little over a minute catching up with one another going back and forth. Down the stairs and a couple halls entered Ichigo into his next class taking a seat near the front as he had been doing. He took a look at his substitute badge feeling he'd be going to work again soon, "Well look who it is." Someone pronounced from behind.
He recognized the voice but was unable to put a face with it and because of that instantly shifted around.
"No way! Anything but this, I really have to share a class with this guy," He placed both hands over his face shaking his head, "I don't want to join your family clan or whatever it is you spoke of, so just get lost." Ichigo turned facing the opposite way.
Fang Fang grinned halfway enjoying his denial, it would help to spice things up, "I never did get your name," Fang Fang walked across the carpet stopping in front of Ichigo's desk, "What's your name?"
He didn't like the fact the sister of this person was able to see him in spirit form, and something about the two just didn't seem right, "That's classified information I'm not authorized to share with weirdoes."
Fang Fang was unable to stop himself from laughing, "You're being ridiculous I'm not your enemy."
"You're not my friend either," Ichigo closed his eyes leaning back, "Go bug someone else that cares, I'm not interested in what you have to offer."
"Ling Ling saw what you did and I know she's telling the truth…we won't stop till you're a combat member to the Huang family."
