Rivalry and Fatherhood
Chapter 4
He looked up as he fell from the building. Above him were Victoria and Celtion. Victoria yelling and Celtion taking his head off.
He didn't know what was happening, but he looked beneath him and regreted it. He was falling to the pavement of Ikebukuro.
Why's this happening? he thought. All of sudden he hit the pavement...
.
Shizuno woke up drenched in cold sweat. His radio alarm was blaring Let the bodies hit the floor. He frowned and hit the off button.
Maybe I shouldn't eat wasabi sushi before bed ever again.
The thought that struck him weird was his best friend next to the new girl. Not to worried though, he shrugged the thought from his head and got dressed into his school uniform.
His dad a few years back was going to lend him his old uniform, but apparently, the school Shizuno wasn't the school his dad went to. Instead he decided to go to West Ikebukuro high. Since it wasn't to far from the Kishitani's apartment, Celtion decided to go also. So ever since day 1 of their school life, they had walked to school together.
But leave it to a girl to break the friendship in half.
"What do you mean your not going to school today?!" Shizuno yelled into his cellphone.
"Mom said I have to take care of Victoria. Y'know, show here the ins and outs in Ikebukuro. Besides, even though she can speak some Japanese, she's not that good at reading it, and so I have to help her fill out her school form. She mostly speaks Gaelic too, so we gotta transfer her into all my classes and I translate everything for her till she gets used to it." Celtion babbled.
Shizuno growled into the phone.
"Thiiiiss Giiiiirrrrrrl!"
"Victoria." Celtion corrected.
"Viiiiiiiiicutooooooriiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!" Shizuno yelled into the phone.
Celtion held the phone far from his ear.
"You don't need to yell into the phone." Celtion muttered.
"Still! Why aren't you going to school! You can do this after! You don't go to any clubs Celty-kun."
Celtion frowned.
"Don't call me that No-no. I hate it when you call me that."
The two ended up fighting on the phone at each other for about 10 minutes. Yelling insulting nicknames at each other, and insulting their race. Shizuno realizing the time, hung up on his friend and dashed out the door. Now wishing he'd pay attention to time more often.

Victoria woke up to shouting. She blinked at the ceiling.
Where am I?
She jumped up out of bed, getting into a dornálaíocht fight style she was taught and walked to the door cautiously. She opened it slowly and looked out. Keeping her left fist close to her jaw and her right slightly out, she walked out slowly.
Victoria did a quick sweep of the surrounding area. Nobody in the hall, procede to the next.
Victoria side stepped down the hall, hands still in a defensive position, and peered around the corner.
She caught sight of a familiar hair-style and lowered her defensive position a bit (but only a small bit).
"Hello?" she said in english, then in Gaelic. "Hello?"
Celtion turned around.
"Morn' to you Tori." Celtion smiled.
Victoria, relieved to see a familiar face, relaxed entirly. She knew it was safe.
"What?" he snorted.
"Nothing." she grinned.
"Anyway, let's get on our way shall we?" Celtion said, holding his arm out.
Victoria chuckled.
"Let me get dressed first."
