Chapter 4

Ryou dreamed that he was drowning. He couldn't breathe, or see. As he opened his eyes, he realized why he was suffocating. Ryou thrashed around, trying to free himself, and woke Ahri up in the process. Her eyelids fluttering open, she wondered why Ryou was making a commotion- and found herself embracing Ryou's head between her breasts in a death grip. Ahri flushed red, and proceeded to punch Ryou off the bed, screaming, "YOU SICK BASTARD!" Ryou laid on the floor for a moment, gasping for air, before he replied, between gasps, "You... were... the one... trying... to kill me." "Well then, you should have died faster," She shot back. "My second night in a new world, and I've already been violated by a lowly predator." Ryou sighed. "Yeah, yeah, call me whatever. Oh, that's right. We need to get you some new-" "Shopping?" Ahri questioned, her hopeful eyes peering into Ryou's soul. Damn, she looked so cute like that. Ryou caught himself and blushed, stammering, "Y-yeah. I'll go make breakfast and we'll go shopping later." "Yaaaaay!" Ahri chirped as she skipped to the bathroom. Ryou gave a sigh of relief, thankful she didn't notice him blushing. He then realized the fact he was going to take a girl shopping. Ryou looked at his wallet with remorse before he got up to make breakfast.

As soon as Ahri finished breakfast, she shot for the front door. Ryou chuckled at the sight of the fox girl struggling with the locks and went over to help. "Here," he said, taking the girl's hands. He didn't hear the small yelp of surprise Ahri made when Ryou grabbed her hands. "You need to turn the deadlock to the left, and the door lock to the right," Ryou instructed as he opened the door. As he went outside, he didn't notice Ahri blush and mutter under her breath, "Idiot." Soon, Ahri was bombarded by the sights and smells of the urban shopping district. Even though she was excited and curious to learn more about the modern shopping center, she was still unnerved by all the longing stares toward her. "This place is beautiful... But I feel so vulnerable without my magic," Ahri confessed. Ryou, ignoring all the hateful and jealous stares, smiled and told her, "Don't worry. I'll keep you safe no matter what. It's a promise!" Startled by this, Ahri blushed and smiled at the ground, before replying, "Thanks." She then grabbed him by the wrist, and dragged Ryou into the first store she deemed interesting.

After going though basically half the stores in the mall, Ahri finally stopped her shopping rampage. Ryou panted heavily as he caught up with her, carrying over 60 pounds of items. "Hey," he rasped, sitting down on a nearby bench, "why do I have to carry all your stuff?" "Why don't you be quiet and feel blessed that we didn't have to pay for any of this?" Ahri shot back. All the stores they visited gave Ahri their merchandise for free, obviously charmed by her. This, in turn, gave Ahri a horrible sense of power, and in less than three hours, Ryou was degraded into nothing more than a pack mule. "I still feel like this is stealing," he pouted. "It's a perk of being a fatal beauty," Ahri stated, examining the new outfit she was wearing in a nearby store window. "If anything's fatal, it's your stomach," Ryou sighed, before letting out a large, "OOF!" as Ahri landed on his lap. "So," she started, looking up at Ryou innocently. "How do I look?" Ryou flushed red at how cute the girl looked but caught himself, and looked away and said, "Modern clothes fit you... You look cute." Ahri giggled, and replied, "You think so? Well then, let's go home!" On their way back, Ryou endured more jealous stares from other men, and sighed to himself. One group of drunk guys called out to Ahri, saying, "Yo, babe! How about you ditch that loser, and come have some fun with us?" Ahri turned to them, smiled politely, and proceeded to give them the finger. "If he's a loser, then I don't wanna be a winner!" She replied. Ryou laughed at their awestruck faces as they continued on home. It wasn't such a bad day after all.


Another chapter! Ideas are always welcome, so leave a review! I probably should have put this somewhere earlier, but Riot is the proud owner of League of Legends, not me. XD
