Natsu Matsuri

on the night of the summer festival....

"*sigh*...its already evening and i still couldn't find a date..." Shusuke said.
"aww...so you want a date eh?...weeeell" Kyouya had a sheepish look on his face.
"what's on your mind?" he asked. "come here i have something for you" he grabbed Shusuke's hand and pulled him inside. When they got out: "there!" Kyouya exclaimed. "you're sure to get a date this time!" he added "Kyouya you idiot!!!" Shusuke shouted at his friend who dressed him in a kimono. "what? you look good in that" Kyouya replied "i'm going to kill you!!!" he yelled as he chased his friend round the district. "you said you wanted a date!!!" "yeah! but not dressed like this you idiot!!!" Suddenly, someone grabbed Shusuke's hand. He looked up and recognized the person who grabbed his hand "hey, are you new here?" the guy asked. "uh...um...ye-uh (shoot! my voice is too low. This is embarrassing...Kyouya i am soooo gonna kill you if i catch you!!!) y-yes (in his best girl impression)" "oh, you know girls aren't supposed to go running around the place like that. By the way, my name's Kentaro Nojo. uh...so you're new huh? mind if i show you around?" the guy smiled as he said this. "(gaaah!)" Susuke's mouth dropped opened as he gasped. "ok then, let's go!"

Kyouya watched in the sidelines, laughing his head off. Itsuki passed by and noticed Kyouya laughing. "hey Kyo whattarya laughing at?" he asked. Kyouya suddenly stopped. "you see that girl over there?" he asked. "uh-huh" "well that ain't really a girl! THAT"S SHUSUKE!!!!" he exclaimed and started laughing again. "wha-aaa! but she's so pretty!" Itsuki stared at his cross-dressed friend.

"(god i hate you Kyouya)" Shusuke whispered half to himself. "what? did you say something honey?" the guy said. "uh..n-nothing....h-h-h-on-ney (GAAAAH!!! GET ME OUTTA THIS HELL HOLE!!!!)

"what is he doing?" Itsuki asked. "he said-haha-he said he wanted a date! hahaha!!!" Kyouya kept laughing until he fell to the ground. Itsuki couldn't understand why his friend kept laughing so he left. He followed Shusuke and the person he was with.

"(wow, the fireworks sure looks great from here...i wish i was with a girl)" Shusuke whispered. "the fireworks look great don't they hun?" Kentaro said, his face coming a little closer. "eh! yeah!" He pushed his face away. "cmon!" Kentaro dragged him to a corner.

"where did they go?!" Itsuki ran after them. "eh? who's that?" he forgot all about his friend as he heard a girl scream. He followed the voice and it led to the woods behind the village where the festival was being held.

"let me go!" the girl screamed again. Her face wasn't clear and her figure only silhouetted by the light from the fireworks, but Itsuki seemed to recognize her voice. "Ayuu!?" the girl managed to spin around, her face lit by the light. "Itsuki! he-!" she was cut off as a man covered her mouth. "c'mon! let's get outta here!"
"Ayuu-!" the men sped away. "shit!" Itsuki bounded after them.

A shadow moved from behind the trees. He halted. "who are you?! Show yourself! (damn it!)"

"god! i don't have time for you!" he bolted off to follow the men who took his Ayuu.
Their tracks led to the road.

On the other side, there was a black car. A man with dark skin stood beside it.
"Ay-! umm!" shock went across his veins when a hand covered his mouth "shh" a voice said. He heard metal scratching on something. It sounded like a sword rubbing against its sheath. A sword! all his fears died away the moment he realized that the hand belonged to his friend "Tatsu!"

He felt new energy surge from his body.

His friend leaped up and across to the other side- he charged towards the car.
"GO GO GO!" the man ordered his accomplices.

Ayuu looked behind, eyes widening as she saw Itsuki and Tatsu bounding neck on neck after the car. Tears fell from her emerald green eyes. All of a sudden, a second car appeared , Ayuu's eyes grew wider as a man who was holding a sniper peeked out from the window and pointed towards Itsuki.

"Look out Itsuki!" she yelled from inside the car. Itsuki turned around and without a moment to lose- shot the man who was pointing at him.
He took out another pistol and shot for a second time-to the driver.

The car spun around and went off the cliff.

Tatsu sped up his steps and made one big jump. He landed on the roof of the car. He steadied himself and stabbed his katanas on the roof. "What the hell?!" He bore a hole and let his feet slide off. "Itsuki! Now!" Itsuki jumped and maneuvered himself in midair. He held the two guns in his hands and faced the two men inside the car "oyasuminasai" he muttered.

Ayuu opened her eyes. There was blood all around, on her hands, her clothes and her face. "Gyaaaaah!" she screamed. "shh...its ok" Itsuki said as he hugged her in comfort. "w-what happened?"

this is not done yet
