Notori the kicker

dammit that woman pisses me off she's not my mom she's a damn imposter, well I'll train my ass off to beat her someday then this kuroshi thing will be mine.

hmph! haaaaah! hyah! take this! * Huff huff* I used to be able to do 1,000 more but a year oof sleep changes you physically huh? friends huh must be nice wish I had some *sigh* It's lonely being known as the kicker isn't helping either.

" Time to hit the showers."

" Huh? who's there?"

wait someone's here. "Hello? where are you."

" Oh, I'm over here sorry if I startled you, I didn't expect anyone else to be here hehe."

" No, your fine I should've checked if anyone was in here before I thought I was alone, h-hey It's my first day here do you maybe want to be friends?"

" Yeah sure, I'll come over to you hold on a second."

as soon as she turned the corner, I was surprised she was blind I stumbled a bit how could she be in here she must be tough. her long blonde hair started blowing when the air conditioner kicked in with her blind wand looking like a powerful sword.

" Hello I'm Chika ryotaro and you?

" y-yeah I'm Notori koroshi."

" w-wait koroshi? n-no way seriously."

" y-yeah is something wrong?"

" I-it's nothing well how about we hit the showers then go for some ice cream?"

" Sure!!"

" Ah that shower was refreshing right Chika I haven't had a shower that good ever ahhh."

" Yeah, it was amazing it's always more fun doing things with friends."

" * sniffle* this is the first time I’ve had a real friend sorry for crying I know it makes me seem weak."

" Now now It's fine to cry every now and then.

she walked towards me put a hand on my shoulder and gave me a smile for the first timme ever I had a real friend to help me through tough situations.

" Hey Notori, how old are ya?"

" Um 18 I guess?"

" You guess? you still age while you’re in a coma. You know I remember when you first got here you looked so scary with that mask, but I think you look better without it."

"Thanks, you know I got some money in my room if you wait here, I can get it and we could go wherever you want?"

" No allow me I'm 20 so I should pay for you well It's not like I'm going to force you to accept my money."

" Well, if you insist you can pay but what do you want to do?"

"Well, I've always wanted to bowl but I need a partner to help me so, shall we?"

" Yeah, let's go crush bowling!!!"

for the first time in life, I felt happy sure I beat all the yakuza with a small gang. But hanging out with Chika was more fun than that more fun than everything and her smile made it 10x better knowing she was having fun too. we got to the bowling place it was fun I helped guide Chika to hitting a strike on the final bowl she was so excited to have hit one that I bought her a stuffed giraffe seeing her face light up was the best thing that has ever happened to me.

all night I was thinking about fun things to do with Chika when morning came, I was sooo excited to see Chika, but mom came to visit me she said," now don't go making friends or they'll die."

*sob* sob* dammit I hate that old bag *sob*

" I'm sure Notori doesn't understand me, but she doesn't know that girl is a toroyuki that is truly vexing I thought I wiped them all out I made to kill even the children so where could this one has been."

" Oh, good morning noto-ri, hey why are you ignoring me hey."

" Shut up fool *tchh! *."

" Hey that's not nice you don't talk to your friends that way."

I kept walking keeping what mother told me earlier in my mind I didn't want her to end up dead, but she did something unexpected I should say it's part of the reason I like her so much. she pinned me to the wall and said" listen here! I don't know what's gotten into you but snap out of it where is the girl I went bowling with huh!"

I knew she was strong, but I never knew she was this strong. I almost broke down, but I pushed her off me and we got into a scuffle with the main doctor dead the nurses were too busy to break us apart. at least 5 passed but none bothered interfering the fighting came to an end when she pinned me to the ground. she was crying when she asked me why? " Why were you ignoring me huh tell me?"

"IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD! FIRST I'M A GANG LEADER AND SECOND well if I don't stay away my mom will kill you."

No, no, no damn Ruth I swear I'll kill you! first my family now my friend " oh is that it your mom will kill me well of course I lied yesterday my goal is to kill you also I'm not blind this is a sword now die."

"w-wait why, why I-I."

" What you love me haha."

" What is love? I like you but I don't know what love is?"

"No way I feel so bad for you just so you know I liked you too."

" Wait it doesn't have to end like this let's run away I can hide us."

" You don't get it I'm from the toroyuki samurai."

" toko-yuki no way."

" It's true and your mom is going to kill me soon I just know it'll happen."

" No, it won't! I'll protect you I'll love you?"

“DON’T SAY THAT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS YOU IDIOT!!!"

" Well, the Library's open let's go find out what it means together."

" y-yeah sure but when you find out you'll be embarrassed you said anything about love."

" Sure, let's go."

" Ah here's the dictionary let's see L-L-L- ah! love"

an intense feeling of deep affection.

" Oh, that sums it up perfectly Chika I love you!"

" Shut up now look for um! b-boyfriend and g-g-girlfriend that's what love is."

" Here boyfriend."

a regular male companion with whom one has a romantic or sexual relationship.

" O-OH! hehe that's a little embarrassing but now girlfriend."

" Oh, it's the same but for females well then, Chika will you be my girlfriend!"

a huge blush came across her face now I could better tell what she was feeling her eyes were sparkling they were a nice blue color, and her hair was a perfect shade of brown the sun reflected against her hair beautifully.

but at that moment I noticed one of mom's kunai sent flying towards Chika from the other side of the big window. so, I jerked her out the room just in time the kunai was grinding through the door.

we ran through the hospital trying to get away I told her to postpone her answer till we escape here we both ran as fast as we could but it wasn't fast enough because there was a kunai behind us it was getting annoying so I grabbed it and threw it towards mom and this seemed to work because we didn't see the kunai again I had no idea where to go but suddenly I was yanked to the right of the third floor staircase.

IT WAS Chika she knew of a secret passage through here she had been in the hospital for 5 years now we were finally leaving we went through the tunnel until we reach a huge sewer drain so we travel through there trying not to scream at the rats to go away.

when we got out, we were miles away from the hospital now was my time to lead I knew where I wanted to hide us, so I grabbed her arm and led her into the forest where we wondered for a while until I found it the back entrance to Lilly akisa's house.

when I showed her, she asked " hey do you know the people that live here or something that aren't connected to your mom."

“yeah, I do quick let's go we snuck into the back garden and the back door was easily picked with a kunai shard that fell into my sleeve when we got inside no one was home so I continued my question from earlier "will you be my girlfriend?"

Chika said yes, we hugged but then the front door unlocked we hid I had to make sure it wasn't her parents, but it was her and her friend’s, mom was talking about, so we hid under the dining table.

I told her we should wait till her friends leave to ask her for help but then I felt an extremely chilling aura it was mom at the door this terrified me, and Chika was even more scared she almost screamed but I stopped her I used all my courage walked over to the door and told mom quietly.

" Leave me and my girlfriend alone old hag!"

this seemed to rattle her because she stopped smiling and instead had the angriest face, I had ever seen that was my final chance to stay on her good side. next time she will kill me but she left without making much fuss this time.

I went over to comfort Chika who seemed scared almost on the verge of tears I don't know how it must feel for her the person who killed your whole family smiling at you. I told her It's okay next time I'll be here with you.

I had almost forgotten about Lilly and her friends 2 had come downstairs to get some disinfectant for a cut one of them had but I deiced now was the time to ask so I ran over her friend wasn't impressive knocked out by a single knee strike.

so, I turned to Chika then back to Lilly and said, " hey squirt been a while I need a favor from you alright."
