Chapter II: Meeting the clumsy Kogorasumaru
--------------------
As soon as the bell ran, she ran outside. She heard from the other students that the roof was free to go on and stay there, which was exactly what she needed. It seemed like the perfect spot for lunch with no one to bother you. She climbed some stairs and got to a door. She pulled her hand on the knob and opened the door. She stepped on the roof and closed the door behind her. The view was amazing. She walked closer to the fence and placed her fingers on it, staring in the distance. She could see everything from there. The mountains in the distance, cars and houses, but mostly the big blue sky, which seemed endless. She backed away from the fence and sat down by it and unpacked her lunchbox. She unwrapped the sandwich and took a bite from it. She raised her head, staring at the clouds while chewing. She quickly fixed her sight on the door when she heard it open.
"Company. Great..Just what I needed..", thought her with sarcasm.
She grabbed her lunchbox and stood up. She quickly walked off and hid behind the door wall. She peaked her head out, looking at the group that just came.
"I'm telling you, I felt something. She isn't like the others, something is wrong with her.", said a guy that was standing with his back at her, but he did seem to be the same guy she was sitting next to.
"You're being pathetic.", replied another guy. "What could you feel unless..it was.. looove at first sight.", said him, with a big grin on his face.
"S-Shut up!", replied quickly the blonde haired guy with a slight tint of red blush on his face.
Yuki tried stepping closer so she would be able to hear better. She stepped on her own foot and bit her lip in pain and fell on the floor.
"Shit!", shouted her while she pulled her leg closer and poked her foot lightly.
"What was that?"
Yuki was still frowning and grinning her teeth in pain and anger but when she raised her sight, she saw the blonde guy looking at her directly.
"Are you alright?", asked him.
"Yes.", replied her with a sigh. "I am fine."
"Important is, what are you doing here?", asked the guy with spikey hair while he walked to her, holding his hands in his pockets. He held his hands out of his pockets and placed them on his hips, while bending to her, staring at her.
The blonde guy reached his hand out at her. She took a hold of it and stood up and stretched slightly.
"Hey, isn't she the new girl?", asked the guy with spiked hair.
"Woah!", exclaimed someone. Yuki turned her head and faced a short guy with big lips, who was standing upside down with his head on a rollerblade, staring at her. "She is the new chick? Man, she is hot..", said him, with a slight drool on the corner of his mouth.
"Shut. Up..", said her in anger, holding her hand in a fist. "This chick has a name and it's 'Yuki', you stupid morons..."
"But why are you calling us morons..?", said a silent voice. "You don't even know us good enough..", said the same voice in a low, innocent tone.
Yuki looked at a short guy with blue hair who had one eye covered by a patch.
"W-Well..", started her, while blushing "I..I.. Ugh! Nevermind..", finished her and crossed her arms, closing her eyes. "This guy's voice is so cute..", thought her.
"Well, since you told us your name, it's only fair for us to introduce us as well.", said the blonde guy and everyone nodded in agreement.
"I am Onigiri!", exclaimed one of the guys. Yuki looked at him and her eye twitched when she realized that he was the same person who said she was the 'new hot chick'. After a few seconds of looking at him and the big grin on his face, she realized that he was staring under her skirt.
"Fucking pervert!", shouted her in anger, pulling her skirt down lightly, trying to cover herself. Everyone else just laughed as she blushed in emberassment and anger. When she lifted her head up slightly when she noticed that something was blocking the sunlight. Her eyes went wide when she saw a really big, tall, fat boy.
"My name is Issa Mihotoke..", started him, in a very deep, somehow dangerous tone. "But I'm mostly known as Fat Buccha.", finished him with a smile and pulled his hand in a bag of chips.
"Y-Yeah..I can see why..", replied her.
"My name is Akito Wanijima...", said the blue haired boy while covering his mouth with his sleeve.
"I am Kazuma Mikura, but everyone you can call me Kazu, cutie.", smiled the blonde haired guy and winked at Yuki as he held his hand out. She took it and shook it gently, while blushing. She could feel he was different from the others.
"And I am Itsuki Minami, also known as Ikki, and I am the proud leader of Kogorasumaru!", exclaimed the guy with spiked hair while taking a proud pose, holding his left hand on his hip and his right hand in a fist.
Yuki blinked twice in confusion and then dragged her voice. "Kogo-..what? I think I ate something like that last night..", pouted her while she held her chin, obviously trying to figure out what was the name of her last meal. Not like it would've helped with anything. Ikki's face just went blank as the others started laughing.
"KOGORASUMARU!", shouted him. "And you better remember it!", exclaimed him in a threathening tone while pointing his index finger at her.
She looked at him and then closed her eyes, waving her hand. "Yeah, yeah, as you say, Spikey Hair."
*****************
They were sitting on the floor in a circle, each one of them enjoying their meals. After a few minutes of silence, kazu raised his head and looked towards Yuki, who was sitting two persons away from him on his right.
"So, do you ride ATs?"
She blinked and gulped down the piece of sandwich she was chewing on.
"ATs?", asked her while looking at him.
"Don't you know what ATs are?", Ikki looked at her in surprise.
"I do. I read some article on the internet but it looked more like it was taken out of a commercial, so I wasn't really able to fully understand what they are, but I have a slight idea. They are.. High tech rollerblades, right?"
Ikki raised his leg and placed his arm on it and nodded.
"Personally...", started her. "I think it's a load of bullshit."
Everyone looked at her in shock, except Ikki, who was looking at her with his expression unchanged.
"Why do you think so?"
"Well, I think they are for spoiled little kids whose parents don't know what to do with their money anymore. Normal rollerblades can do a lot and you are much, much cheaper."
Ikki sighed. "You don't appreciate the sky, do you?"
Yuki blinked in confusion and then frowned slightly, kind of bothered by his reply. "Of course I do! There is nothing more that I love than the sky. I've always wished to be able to fly and touch the Heavens themselves!"
"Then try ATs..", replied Ikki in a calm tone. "That's why we prefer them over rollerblades. We are concious that rollerblades can do amazing things as well as ATs, but they are not able to bring you to the sky. It's not the same feeling."
"Unfortunately, there are some who use them, but don't know that feeling, since they use them for fighting...", sighed Kazu.
"Fighting?, blinked Yuki as she turned her head to Kazu. "I understood that they are capable of more than rollerblades, but you still skate with them, skating is supposed to be fun, not used for fighting.", said her, intrigued.
"Damn...You sound like Ringo.", Ikki closed his eyes and arched his head on his back, feeling the wind.
Before she could ask who Ringo was, the bell rang. They all stood up and went to their class. When she arrived in class, she walked to her seat and sat down. She placed her cheek on her hand and turned her head, staring through the window. It was a normal day at school, but she was somehow happy that she managed to make a few new friends, the clumsy Kogorasumaru.
