3… 2… 1…
Fight!
Chapter 14 (nothing special about this number.)
"Yo, Ryouko." Uo said, coming up to Ryouko after class. "Wanna help me kick some guys' asses at soccer?"
Ryouko grinned, she loved soccer. "Sure, and who's ass shall we be kicking?"
"Hold on a sec!" Kyo interfered. "I don't want you playing soccer while you're injured."
Ryouko drew herself to her complete height, a full 1 and ½ inches taller than Kyo. "When did you become my mother?" she demanded. "I can kick whoever's ass I want." At that, she cracked her neck.
Cue black Ryouko. (Not really, but she can be bitchy.)
Kyo had been defeated; the least he could do was watch the game.
Uo's team stood in facing the opposing team. Hers consisted of Ryouko, Yuki, Usagi, 3 other guys, and of course, Uo.
The team who opposed them was lead by Haru, and consisted of a 6th grader (cue Hiro), and 5 other guys, and Haru.
Ryouko was elected to be in the rock-paper-scissor match that started the game. Here eyes were already locked with Haru's before she was even a yard of him.
The air between them seemed to crackle as they put up their chosen position. Ryouko rock, Haru, scissors.
Ryouko had won.
Cue black Haru, (No kidding this time.)
Black(ish) Ryouko
VS.
Black CowMan
Cue the whistle blowing person. (is this annoying you?)
Haru was after the ball in a millisecond. Ryouko did justice to her skills and kept it away from him until he just happened to leave his leg out for a bit too long and trip her.
Remember folks, this is just a game of kicking ass, there are no fouls in this kind of high school soccer.
As Haru raced off with the ball, Ryouko was on her feet and after him, only to be intercepted by the 6th grader (now known as Hiro.) Hiro blocker her every move to get at Haru.
After many tries to get around him Ryouko went the only other way she could: over.
Being the unnaturally tall person she was, Ryouko promptly jumped over Hiro. He was dazed for a moment, and Ryouko was glad that he hadn't decided to look up, he would have freaked. Even so, Ryouko did wear shorts under skirt uniform, but she had promptly removed her skirt before the game, it was just easier in shorts.
She raced after Haru, this game was just him and her now.
Catching up to him, she kicked his shin just enough for him to move it out of instinct, the she snatched the ball from him, heading in the other direction.
But Haru took advantage of her bandage over one eye, and came up where she couldn't see him. But before he could get the ball, Ryouko passed it to Uo who shot it into the goal.
Ryouko gave Uo a high five as Haru cursed under his breath.
But their luck didn't hold out much longer.
Haru had the ball, and he scored 4 times to Ryouko's dismay. But Usagi and Yuki used their combined efforts to score 3 times.
It was a tie.
But Yuki had to go, as did Usagi and Hiro. They started losing players, so the game ended with a score of 4 to 4
Ryouko and Haru were furious that they hadn't beat the other player.
Cue Kyo with a bucket of water.
Ryouko shrieked.
The black in black Haru disappeared.
Ryouko strangled Kyo, causing him to flail about dramatically. Helpless, Kyo gave up.
Cue Uo dumping her water bottle on Kyo's head.
And so, Ryouko walked home with Kyo, both of them dripping wet.
Author's note:
Wonderful buckets of water, they make the world go round.
