Unfamiliar Feelings
Chapter 3: Welcome to the Jungle
As I've mentioned previously, I do not own Kenichi the Mightest Disciple only my OC
"This is where you live?" Yukiko asked with a skeptic tone. The dojo in front of her was intimidating, and she hasn't even gone inside yet and she's only seen the gates. She assumes you could call this 'intuition', but she couldn't rely on that alone. She needed evidence to back up her claim.
"Yes. Is there a problem?" Akisame asks.
"No... It was just, how you say, unexpected," Yukiko responded. She could only imagine a teasing look on the man's face when she said that.
"It's not as bad as you think," He attempted to reassure her, and it worked... Until they stepped closer to the door, and he pushed the gates open with two fingers. Her eyes widened. How... How strong is this man? Those gates were huge, no ordinary person should be able to open those gates. He pushed it easily, like it was nothing, with only two fingers. I clearly misjudged Mr. Koetsuji. He may look skinny on the outside, but clearly he isn't. Does this mean that man, Sakaki, is like him too? How dangerous are they? What if-
"Miss Akiyama, I can assure you that I, nor any other member of this dojo are going to harm you, or try to cause conflict to the city," Akisame stated out of the blue, trying to disprove her worrying thoughts. Yukiko's eyes darted back to him, scanning his facial features to tell if he was lying or not. His face looks honest. He's not lying. Wait, how did he know? He's smart. Smarter than just a regular doctor and martial artist. I have to keep my guard up... But...
"How did you know?" She blurted out.
"You looked like you were in deep thought, and then your face scrunched up a little to show signs of stress. You were also very surprised when I opened the gates with two fingers," Akisame answered confidently. Make that very intelligent. Possibly, dare I say, more intelligent than I am. Yukiko scrunched her face slightly. This could be a trap. Incredibly dangerous man. Keep your guard up. They entered through the gates, and to Yukiko's surprise there were a few buildings scattered across the property, and she spotted a few training dummies. This really is a dojo. "I told you."
Her face scrunched a bit more, "I see that, Mr. Koetsuji. A relatively normal place."
"Hello, Akisame. Who is this lady you brought to the dojo?" A male questioned, although he speaking very fluent Japanese, he had slight... Accent to it... Korean? It sounds oddly familiar... Chinese. The (Chinese?) male had a slight tone when he asked the question. He doesn't mind that I'm here. He was trying to be polite, but his voice had a particular... How should I say... Lecherous tone to it.
"Kensei, this is Akiyama Yukiko. And Miss Akiyama, this is Kensei Ma. The master of all Chinese martial arts," Akisame introduced. Yukiko peered down to the shorter male, who was holding a camera and snapping pictures. Time seemed to slow down for Yukiko in that moment to analyze him. The mustache certainly classifies him as Chinese, as well as his outfit of choice. He seems to be very old, due to the wrinkles on his skin, maybe about 50. He is perverted. Yukiko looks at his hands curled around the camera. Their is a tan line around his left ring finger. He was married. Moved to Japan for some unknown reason, maybe fear of his wife, or just tired of Chinese tradition, but that doesn't explain why he does Chinese martial arts still.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Ma," Yukiko said, slightly disgusted by this man's tendencies.
"It's a pleasure to meet you too, Miss Akiyama. I hope you stay here for a while," Kensei responds, with absolute delight in his tone. Yukiko looks away from his actions.
"I hope your wife doesn't find out your little endeavors here in Japan, otherwise you have my deepest apologies," She states, slightly shocking the old man to make him stop taking photos, gulping slightly at the thought of his wife. Akisame scoffs, and proceeds to head on to show Yukiko around the dojo.
A perverted leech. What's next?
"And here is the room you'll be staying at for the next few days," Akisame states, a slight solemn look in his eyes as he shows Yukiko the room. She takes notice, but doesn't comment. However...
"Normally, people have stairs, instead of ropes in two story buildings," Yukiko states bluntly, her eyes trailing to the rope dangling down, next to what she can assume that used to be stairs. Akisame scratches the back of his head.
"Well, Sakaki and Kensei got drunk..." Akisame trails off. Yukiko understands the rest of that statement before he could even tell her.
"Oh..." She trails off as well. "Are their any other inhabitants of this dojo I should know about?"
"I don't know where Apachai, our Muy Thai master, or the Elder, the Grandmaster, are. But Shigure, the weapons master, is out on a mission, while my disciple and the Elder's granddaughter are out getting errands," He elaborated. Yukiko nodded. But then freezes for a second.
"Mission?" She repeated. What the...
"It's nothing of importance," He dismisses with a hand. Yukiko's eye twitches slightly, before glancing at her new room.
"Do you mind if you give me some time to... Adjust to the new room?" She questions, and he nods, opening the door for her. As far as she could see, the room seemed normal, white wall, a bed, wardrobe, a desk. She could only wonder what sentimental value this meant to Akisame. "I could manage from here, thank you."
"If you need me, my room is right next door," He states, and leaves. Yukiko hobbles to the bed, and lies down. Checking her phone. 50 Missed Phone Calls? 100 Missed Messages. She sighs irritably, knowing who it is. Yukine Akiyama. Kyoko Matsuda. Kyoko was probably done investigating her part of the investigation. Yukine was just being an idiot and was worried about her well-being. Being a detective was difficult.
Dun Dun Duuuuuuuun. Holy Jesus I finally updated. I'm apologize deeply, but then I had plans and Yada Yada Yada. Btw I was introduced to Wattpad, and making new stories on their sooooo... I'm sorry.
I know I told you that she was a government secretary but that was a lie, after I thought more about the backstory and what would seem good, so Instead of government official, I made her a detective which seems so much better in this case.
Thank you all so much ch for waiting patiently. And see you guys soon
