Chapter 46 - Fourth and Fifth Period

 

“So tell me, what's with the special locker?” Koori whispered, sliding into the seat behind Shitenshi.

 

“Student council. We have special projects for the school and money and stuff that we have to keep safe all the time, so our lockers are in the council homeroom.” Shitenshi couldn't keep the laughter out of her voice.

 

“I didn't know you were on the student council.”

 

“Class president.” Mujinku added smugly.

 

“Nice.” Koori listened to the teacher for a minute. “You do know that about every other thing this guy says is wrong, right?”

 

“Yeah. Just zone out during the lecture and read the stuff yourself for homework. We study together most weekends to get the material right.”

 

“No whispering!” The history teacher snapped.

 

“Sorry Sir,” Shitenshi spoke up quickly. “I was just helping, was it Kooni?”

 

“Koori.” He said dryly.

 

“Right, I was helping Koori here catch up on the material.”

 

“Ah yes, thank you Shitenshi.” The teacher smiled at her before resuming his inaccurate lecture on the feudal era.

Hey, pretty boy!” An unfamiliar voice broke through Koori's thoughts as he left the physics lab. He turned to see three older boys and a girl. They appeared to be Shippo's age and he wondered if they had been held back many times.

 

“Are you referring to me?” Koori asked haughtily.

 

“Yeah, we're referring to you, pretty boy.” The tallest one sneered.

 

“Look at his fancy togs.” The girl gave a wolf whistle. She had the same red hair and facial structure as the leader. “Think he's rich?”

 

“Must be, `e got that snobby bastard look down real good.” A pale, blonde boy added. His darker friend nodded, an evil grin on his face.

 

“Well,” said the leader with a malicious laugh, “I suppose we should ask him to, ah, contribute to our… charitable effort.”

 

“What would that be?” Koori asked, tensing.

 

“Why, the feed the youth charity.” The blonde replied. They exchanged a quick glance before all four rushed the youkai.

 

Koori's hand instantly went to his waist, but there was no weapon hanging there. Dang it! He ducked and dodged, taking the weaker punches and fending off the harder ones. “I've done nothing to you. Leave me alone.”

 

Strong hands wrapped around his left bicep while slim wiry ones controlled his right. Koori looked back to see a tall, broad shouldered boy in a varsity jacket and a svelte black-haired girl in a dark hoodie. “You gonna start without us?” The jock asked, tightening his grip on Koori's arm.

 

“Eh, you two were late.” The redheaded girl replied, stepping forward and reaching for the captive boy's pocket. Koori kicked out, not to hit her but to keep her at a distance. The girl clucked her tongue. “Now now, pet, that's no way to act.” The other three boys grabbed his legs while the girl searched his pockets. As he struggled, Koori was suddenly glad Shitenshi has suggested leaving his wallet behind.

 

“Hey! Stop struggling, you're only making it worse.” The leader replied, relaxing his hold on the youkai's leg long enough to punch him in the face. “Just give the little lady a chance to work her magic.” Another punch to the stomach was followed by a knuckle splitting open his eyebrow. “Anything good Sis?”

 

“Ten bucks? That's the most you got on you handsome?” The redhead female asked, disappointed.

 

“He's got a Rolex.” The boy holding his arm supplied. It was quickly in the girl's hands, followed by his gold hoop earring. Koori had never felt more helpless in his life and desperately wished for his sword, having been forcefully taught not to use his poison claws on mere humans. At least with his sword he would have had a fighting chance. He father had refused to teach him hand to hand fighting as Inuyasha had Mujinku, thinking it uncivilized.

 

“Well, so long handsome, thanks for the presents.” The girl cooed. With another punch to the stomach, Koori's legs were released, followed by his arms, as the gang sprinted away. They will pay for that. Koori thought, watching them go in disgust. Koori picked himself up and trudged out of the building towards the cafeteria, determined not to show his weakness before his cousin and Shitenshi.
