Kirakishou !UdzMmUq0Oc 2008/11/08 (Sat) 21:12 No. 67093 “So. . . are we. . . Ok now?” you ask, hopefully.
“Yeah, Yeah, I guess we are. For now, Anyways. Just, slow up a bit, wouldja? I’ll be angry if you keep running away on me . ” Mokou punches you playfully in the arm.
During this little exchange, a black car with tinted windows slows to a stop in front of the school. It draws your attention mainly because cars rarely drive down the street in front of the school. Pointing this out to Mokou, the pair of you stare at the car for a moment before an impeccably dressed man appears from the driver‘s seat. He looks around for a instant before turning to the back door of the car. He opens the door and bows deeply to the emerging form. From this distance, you’re unable to immediately identify the person who just got out of the car. Standing there, the figure looks around, seeming to take in the school and it’s grounds. Seeing you outside the school, it waves a hand above it’s head and calls out to you. It moves swiftly through the entrance to the school. As they move closer, you can finally tell that it’s Kaguya. She seems to be wearing an outfit similar to the one when you challenged her at the arcade. As she runs up to you, a bright, happy smile is affixed her face. The exact second she sees Mokou, however, that happy look melts off of her face in an instant and sours into an angry scowl. A quick glance to the side reveals that Mokou’s features are marred by a similar glower. Sighing inwardly, it’s obvious that this whole encounter isn’t going to end well. Frown still affixed firmly on her face, Kaguya turns back to you.
“I thought,” Kaguya’s voice drips with venom, “she was leaving.”
“Well, I WAS, but your lover boy here stopped me.” Mokou matches the acrimony in Kaguya’s voice and then some.
The two of them bicker back and forth for several minutes, neither one giving an inch. This is really getting on your nerves. If you allow them to continue squabbling, it will likely come to blows again. Another sigh works it’s way out of you.
“ENOUGH!” You roar, causing both of the girls to start. As you realize that they’re both staring at you now, you clear your throat and put on your best innocent look. “I’m sorry, did I startle you?”
The girls both laugh uneasily.
“Kaguya, I didn’t call you here just to fight with Mokou.” You turn to Mokou, “And you’re the one who suggested that she come in the first place. So knock it off. Both of you.”
“Alright. Sure thing, whatever you say.” Mokou laughs awkwardly, scratching the back of her head. “I’ll meetcha up there.” She says before disappearing quickly into the school.
You nod as she walks off.
“Ah. . Alright. . .” Kaguya still seems a little shaken by your sudden outburst. “Are. . . Are you okay?” She stares at you intently.
You feel your cheeks redden slightly under her intense scrutiny. “Ah, Yeah. Sorry. I just didn’t want a repeat of the last time the two of you ran into each other.”
Kaguya laughs, her face reddening slightly in embarrassment. “Ah, Yeah. . . Sorry about that.”
“It’s ok. Let’s get inside. I don’t want Mokou causing more trouble. I’ve had enough of that for today.” You laugh wryly.
“Shall we?” Kaguya loops your arm around yours and looks up at you expectantly. Mokou’s going to throw a fit when she sees this. It really does feel nice having Kaguya pressing herself up against you. You can feel the warmth radiating from her body into your arm as she presses in closer.
“Oi!” Mokou calls out from somewhere inside the building “You to lovebirds coming, or do I have to go get a hose?”
The two of you jump apart as if you were burned. Your face must be absolutely beet red at this point, as you can feel it burning.
“Ah. . . Shall we?” You motion towards the interior of the building.
Kaguya nods and enters. “Y-yes. Let’s.”
Mokou chuckles as you walk past her. She punches you in the arm playfully. “If I see that again, you’re going to discover, [b]first hand[/I], what hell looks like.” A huge, gleaming grin is plastered to Mokou’s faces, sending chills down your spine. The grin splits open as Mokou starts laughing in earnest this time, which you take as your queue to run after Kaguya.
A short while later the three of you find yourselves in front of the Student Council room. Upon sliding the door open, Reimu’s slumbering form is splayed out on the floor rather indecently and is snoring rather loudly now. The look that crosses Kaguya’s face was priceless when she saw Reimu’s slumbering form. The expression was a cross between extreme shock and utter revulsion. Mokou just makes a ‘pfft’ noise, attempting to hold in the laughter.
“Man! I really wish I had a camera right about now! Though. . . If memory serves, It’s not much different from how you used to sleep. Betcha still sleep that way, eh Kaguya?” Mokou elbows Kaguya while chuckling.
Kaguya sputters a response at Mokou, her face now bright red once again, vehemently denying the accusation. Mokou just continues sniggering at Kaguya, who’s embarrassment is rapidly turning to anger. You manage to catch her hand as she raises it to slap at Mokou and simply shake your head at her. She whips her hand away from you and walks over to Reimu.
“I assume,” Kaguya waves her hand down at Reimu, “That this is the ‘problem’ that you needed my help with?”
Ignoring Mokou you answer Kaguya.
“Would you care to explain to me just what the hell is going on? As I last remember, neither you, nor Reimu, were on stellar terms with one another.”
Mokou stops laughing and addresses you in a more serious tone. “Actually, yeah. Tell us.”
You spend the next few minutes explaining to Kaguya and Mokou what had happened, wisely leaving out several details. Namely the ones about Reimu trying to force herself upon you, as that would only serve to incite these two.
“Man. Who would think that she’d fall apart like that?” Mokou looks down at Reimu sleeping on the floor. “Almost makes you feel for the girl.”
Kaguya sighs. “I think I understand.” she places her hand against her forehead then runs it back over her head. “It’s a lot to take in. Who would have thought that perfect façade could come crashing down like this. Alright. I’ll cover for her tonight. But ONLY tonight. If she‘s not fine tomorrow, then she‘s on her own.”
“Thank you. I can’t ask anything more of you.” You bow deeply to Kaguya.
“Well you could. . .” Kaguya starts, but quickly cuts off when Mokou coughs. “Err. . . Right. You should probably get her down to the car.”
You scoop Reimu up in your arms as Kaguya and Mokou lead the way down to the car. The trip is a short one, punctuated only by the fact that your two lovely companions are seeming to get along much better now. Kaguya leans out the front of the school to make sure the coast is clear before waving you out to her car. Placing Reimu into the back seat of the car Kaguya comes up next to you and gives you a kiss on the cheek.
“Oi. Kaguya.” Mokou’s voice is an absolute deadpan as she looms behind Kaguya, one fist raising slowly into the air. “Do you want to see hell?”
“I do believe that’s my queue to leave!” Kaguya quickly jumps in the car which promptly drives away.
“That girl, I swear.” Mokou shakes her head, laughing slightly, “So. Now what?” she looks at you expectantly.
[ ] Go Home. It’s been a long, exhausting day.
[ ] Send Mokou home, you have other things to do. Privately.
[ ] Do whatever you have to do with Mokou in tow.
[ ] Space out.
