Chapter 5: Howard suspicions.
Howard walked on the sidewalks, heading to his home. After spending a lot of time with Randy, the sun was beginning to set and Howard had to go. His mum had called him to come back home to meet a special surprise. He was excited about the thought of a surprise and immediately said goodbye to Randy before leaving. He eventually got to his house which wasn't far from Randy's and barged the door open.
"Mom, I'm back! So where's this special surprise!" Howard exclaimed happily.
"She's with us in the dining room, come meet her." His mom voice came from the dining room.
Howard cocked his eyebrow up in confusion, "Meet her? Please let it not be another sister." He muttered to himself, deeply wishing that it will come true. He walked inside the dining room and his jaw fell wide open at who he saw. His family which consisted of his sister, Hiedi, mom and dad wasn't the cause, but it was the Japanese girl sitting next to Heidi.
"Who the juice, is she?" Howard glared at her.
Before his mum could answer, the Japanese girl answered with a sly smile, "I'm Kimiko Yamamoto, but you can call me Kim for short."
"Ok. So when are you going?" Howard rushed into the first thing on his mind.
Heidi smirked, "She isn't leaving. She's a Japanese exchange student, so she's staying here…for the rest of the school term."
"What?!" Howard became wide eyed as he fell to his knees and shouted dramatically to the ceiling, "NNNOOOOOOOO!"
************************************************** ********(LINE BREAK)******************************************** ***********
The next day, Howard woke up from his bed with a loud yawn. He was still thinking about the Japanese girl that's now staying in his house. He was so worried about the girl that he had a nightmare where she took over his life and tried to kill him. After that dream, he decided to do two things. One: he was going to lay off the Mccrackers and two: he was going to show her who's boss.
He got off his bed and made his way to the bathroom door in the hall. He was about to touch the knob when he felt a rushed breeze touch his body and heard the door slam closed.
"What the juice?" He yelped in surprise and began banging the door, "Heidi, come out before you spend a century there."
"I'm not Heidi." A familiar voice said from the bathroom.
"Yamamoto!" He snarled in anger.
************************************************** ***(LINE BREAK)******************************************** *****************
"Cunningham, I need your help." Howard said as he stood before Randy. After what felt like an hours in his home, Howard couldn't take it anymore and went to Randy's house. He met Randy lying on his bed and reading a comic book.
Randy gave his best bro a puzzled look as he put down his comic, "What's the juice, Howard? You ran into Mcfist."
"No, it's worse." Howard said with a troubled look, "Heidi brought some exchange student to live with us for the entire school term and she's driving me crazy!" To emphasis his point he pulled his hair, though not seriously.
"Oh that must be bad." Randy shook his head with a sly smile. He sat at the edge of his bed and patted his hand next to him, "Why don't you sit here and talk to me."
"This is serious, Cunningham!" Howard yelled, throwing his hands to the air.
Randy held up his hands in defense, "Ok, I'm sorry. But don't you think you're being too overreacting."
"No!" Howard paused for a moment to think about it, "Ok, maybe I'm overacting, but she's just cramping my life at home. Just this morning she took my bathroom time really fast. It was like she was so fast that she broke the speed of sound."
"Dude, that can't happen."
"Oh, yeah. What about when I was just sleeping on my bed and next thing I know she jumps pass my room window."
"Are you sure about that?" Randy gazed at his friend with a skeptic look.
"Positive! It's like she jumped twenty feet into the air. Then to top off the cake, before I left to your house the strangest thing happened. When my parents left, I threw a ball at her…"
"Wait? You tried to hit her?" Randy interrupted him.
"Yup, but that's not the point. When I threw the ball at her she brought out a katana from out of nowhere and cut it into pieces."
When Howard was done, he grew a smug look on his face at Randy's face reaction. The purple haired teen eyes were wide open and his jaw fell to the fall. It was like he was frozen in shock that he didn't move an inch. Howard snapped his fingers at his face in an attempt to wake him up. It seem to woke cause Randy snapped back to reality and fell down from his bed.
Howard laughed, "Dude, you should've seen you're face! It was priceless!"
"Yeah, whatever." Randy said, getting off from the ground and dusting himself, "Do you think Yamamoto is another Mcfist android."
"I don't know." Howard shrugged, "There's only one way to find out." A grin grew on his face at the thought in his mind.
************************************************** *********(LINE BREAK)******************************************** ***********
At a clear meadow, the air was fresh and breezy cool. The grass danced to the cool air and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the few places in Norrisville that no trouble or interruption was heard. The place was a good place to relax if you were open minded to peace, calm and harmony.
"So this is the place?" Heidi asked, following Kim from behind.
The two girls were in the meadow which wasn't far from Norrisville high school. Heidi didn't like going anywhere close to school, especially in the weekends, but Kimiko wanted her to follow her.
Kimiko said nothing until she slumped down on the ground, "Yep, this brings back memories. It's good to see this place is unaffected by modern time."
"Don't get your hopes up, Kim." Heidi said, taking a seat on the grass next to Kim, "I heard Mcfist is going to turn this place to a super mall."
An annoyed look came upon Kim's face, "So he wants to destroy this place?"
"No." Heidi shook her head, "he's actually a nice guy. He's really helped Norrisville in many ways."
"You really admire him, don't you?"
Heidi paused for a moment, thinking her next words carefully. She could see that Kim was getting annoyed by the conversation and knew that if she answered straight forward, it would sound like she support Mcfist which she is, "Why do you ask?" Heidi asked straight away.
Kim made eye contact with her with a bold look on her face, "Because he's an evil man. He's just making you and everyone think he's good."
"What?!" Heidi said, wide eyed and shock at the news.
Kim didn't let her friend shock to stop her from continuing, "He's just doing all those things so no one can suspect his the cause of the robot attacks always happening in your school. In fact he's the enemy of the Ninja that wears a hero's mask."
Heidi let everything sink into her, a frown also coming upon her face, "So, everything we thought. He was faking it. Why?"
Kim opened her mouth to say something, but closed it. She sensed something out of place and quickly turned to a tree a few feet behind them. Heidi stared confused at her friend and opened her mouth to say something. But Kim shushed her before she could say anything. Rather than asking again, she decided to follow Kim's gaze and saw the tree.
However, there was nothing that seems odd about the tree. In fact it seem like a natural tree.
"What's wrong?" Heidi whispered to Kim.
Kimiko eventually turned away from the tree, but still kept her skeptic look. She faced Heidi with the same look, "We're being watched."
"By who?" Heidi asked, still keeping the tone of her voice down.
Kimiko grew a grin on her face, "My prodigy and his sidekick."

Me: Sorry for cutting it short, but I don't want to rush things. The next chapter will contain some action and some secrets will be revealed to Randy, Howard and Heidi. I said perhaps, so it's not an assurance. Hope you liked the chapter. I thought that it's time Randy and Howard catch up and become suspicious of Kimiko's actions. If you're wondering why Theresa hasn't made her appearance here, well don't worry about that. She'll make her appearance soon in this story. Please send comments of your thoughts on the story. But don't flame.
