Sorry it's been awhile since a new chapter has been out but my computer crapped out and then I had to study for midterms. Damn school. By the way, Reviews are what I work for, and it's always nice to hear from y'all. :)
"Is this really going to work?" Danny asked after the meetings with every group they had.
"They weren't that bad," Sammi said.
"I was talking about Davi's group," he said irritated.
"Okay THEY were that bad," Sammi agreed.
"We have to deal with them for now," Nikki said, "we can't risk anyone getting attacked alone."
She stood there for a moment before getting up.
"I'll be back," she said.
"You gonna go see what's wrong with him?" Danny asked an eyebrow raised.
"Yeah, why not?" Nikki asked getting up.
"You're not in a state to go wondering around," Sammi scolded.
"I'm fine," Nikki complained, "I'm not a kid so stop treating me like one."
"Then stop acting like one!" Sammi said exasperated.
"I wouldn't let my Zweilts talk to me like that," Davi said smirking at Nikki after appearing out of nowhere.
Nikki snorted, "That's 'cause your head is too big for the rest of ya. Get off your high horse ya pain in the ass and maybe they'll respect you and stop calling you an uptight fucker behind your ass."
"They called me a what?" Davi asked.
Nikki laughed, "At least my people care about me."
Davi glared and Nikki laughed harder.
"I'm leaving and y'all can't stop me so don't even think about it. Danny knows where to find me if need be," she said walking out the door.
"Pain in the ass," Sammi whined and went back to her perch on the fridge, "damn girl doesn't listen to a thing we say."
Tsukumo had just started to get up when the there was a knock on the door.
"Coming," he said softly walking to the door and opening it.
Before he could react a bag was thrown at him and a short blonde walked into the room and plopped on a chair.
"So you like junk food do you?" Nikki asked looking up.
Tsukumo shook his head yes and looked at the bag.
"Potato chips?" he asked confused. (A/N: I know that they may or may not have these in Japan but I'm going on the assumption American food is not in Japan and vice versa)
"Yeah," she said, "their thin potato slices fried and mixed with seasoning."
"What is BBQ?" he asked looking at the Herr's Honey BBQ chips.
"Barbeque," Nikki said as he opened the bag and stared at them.
Then with a shrug he picked one out of the bag and started to munch on it. Chewing on the chip for a while he shook his head and took another one out to munch on.
"Good aren't they?" Nikki asked smiling at his seemingly delight in the chips.
"They're sweet," he said munching on more.
"That's the honey," she explained and threw something else at him.
He looked at the bottle. Rumuné. More specifically Plum
"Where did you get this?" he asked remembering his rummaging through the kitchen to find some decent food but not knowing what anything was.
"It's good soda so I buy it myself," she said, "I keep it in my room but down the street is a Japanese specialty store so you can get the food you're used to eating there. That's why we live here because of all the different specialty stores catering to anyone who comes here. Needless to say I'm familiar with them because foreign food is just too damn good."
He laughed at her rant.
"Thank you," he said smiling.
"Sure," she said standing up and starting to make her way out the door. As she went to open the door she collapsed and cursed.
"Damn it," she complained trying to pull herself up off the floor. Tsukumo put the food down and went to her aid helping her off the floor only to discover she couldn't stand up.
"What happened?" he asked her holding her up so she didn't fall.
"She used too much energy," Sammi said walking in and helping Nikki, "she can't do stupid things like that yet she does anyway. You shouldn't have gone down to the specialty store."
"But I needed pocky and Rumuné anyway!" she said rolling her eyes.
"I'm going to take her to her room," Sammi told Tsukumo, "and then a couple of other people are probably going to scold her too. See you tomorrow."
Once she left Tsukumo went back to munching on his treats. He didn't understand what was going on but he felt a lot happier with someone who cared enough to go down to the store to get him something to eat.
"Tsukumo?" Toko called as she walked into his room to see him there munching on food, "Where did you even find that?"
"Girl that stopped by," he said continuously chewing.
"You don't even know who she was?" Toko yelled, "what if the foods poisoned?"
"What the hell is going on here?" Hotsuma yelled walking in with Shusei on his heels and Kuroto and Senshiro behind them.
"Nothing," Tsukumo said munching on more chips.
"Where'd you get that?" Shusei asked as the all invaded Tsukumo's room.
"A girl stopped by," he said.
"Are you sure they're safe to eat?" Kuroto asked looking at the bag, "People weren't exactly happy to see us today."
"I'm not dead yet," he said looking at them.
"What does that prove?" Hotsuma yelled obnoxiously.
"That the poison isn't quick killing," Shusei said.
"They're not poisoned," Takashiro came in and looked at his Zweilts, "But someone is going to kill you if you keep being this loud at two in the morning."
"What are you talking about?" Hotsuma asked looking at his phone, "It's four in the afternoon.
"Not unless it gets dark at four," Takashiro said pulling back the curtain to reveal a pitch black night, "your phone didn't account for time zone differences much like you."
"We should get to bed then," Shusei said and the others agreed.
They left, this time quietly as to not disturb the rest of the sleeping Zweilts.
