I made tea, get up and eat something. fuuko mama! where’s fuuko? fuuko? fuuko’s mom : she left, it was late. ganko : huh? and she didn’t even tell me, so mean! I’m so bored...... [fuuko...... where are you now?] Volume 5 Chapter 8 : Kuu III (Strength of the Claw) (match board showing mikagami won the first match and domon tied the second.) recca : a win and a tie, good start! tokiya : don’t be careless. the first three are only pawns. the next match fuuko must win. the fourth match with saicho is unpredictable! if you can’t defeat him, then it’ll be bad. I have a feeling...... kukai is not a normal guy. we should wrap it up in four matches, can’t let him get his chance. recca : [I wanna try him on though......] if fuuko loses...... then I have the chance to face kukai. fuuko (knocks recca hard) : elbow attack! (recca’s falls down, tokiya sweatdrop.) recca : [ah--] fuuko : heh! so rude! who did you say was gonna lose? (the finger) you deserved that one— recca (deformed mad) : what the fuck-- bitch! kagero (holding him back) : forget it, you started it. she’s very strong, and more than you think...... audience : what the hell! so this is all the kuu’s got! what about being the strongest in the tohoku area! you’re just a bunch of useless fools! daikoku : damn it... we thought the opponents were not strong...... but this is the result of our carelessness...... because of our bad performances, the kuu is in humiliation... minamio (looking down) : I’m sorry, shihan dai... kukai (picking his nose) : saicho, tissue! (blow his nose, saicho’s blown to the side from the impact) you wanna use it? (handing it to tatsuko) ms. ref. tatsuko : stop fooling around! saicho (sweatdrop) : shihan dai...... kukai : to enhance the kuu name... no matter what obstacle we face, I will win! audience : you can’t even take care of kids like that, you expect to win? everyone can talk big! so the monk kukai is an optimistic fool! (all those insultees ended up being slashed by scythes.) fujimaru : hey—hey—you idiots are too noisy! (holding more scythes) kukai : fujimaru... fujimaru : forget it, let them talk. a buncha losers. (staring at minamio and daikoku) you really humiliated us. ahahahah! no matter what the cost, I will win. just watch! tatsuko : third match! fuuko vs. fujimaru! begin! (fuuko is ready with some of her needles, fujimaru begins to move.) fujimaru : hi, miss! what’s your measurements? fuuko (blushing) : ......? [asshole] (attack) don’t get a nose bleed! my beautiful breasts are 34! so what! fujimaru (stop fuuko’s attack, licks his scythe) : I really wanna see it...... I’ve decided to strip you (his scythes fly at fuuko they cut her at various points) fuuko : [fast!] ah...... (her sleeves have been torn off.) fujimaru : lalalala ah—heheh! (fuuko is VERY mad, veins pop, recca is screaming at her.) recca : fuuko, calm down, calm down! don’t fall for his tricks! fuuko (VERY VERY mad) : I know, I am VERY calm. [puff puff puff] I’ll be like a kid if I get mad at a little thing like this... (fujimaru picks up a piece of her shirt and licks it *sicko*, fuuko is furious) fuuko : you pervert! fuujin— fujimaru (easy dodge) : ha (close in on fuuko) I am the quickest of the kuu! you can’t beat me. (slashes parts of fuuko’s jeans, revealing bear legs) the second piece recca (furious) : [fuuko......] kagero : [what are you blushing about?] yanagi : [heh!] fuuko : [oh......] ......... then I need some reinforcement. (she reaches into her shirt, around her breast, and takes out a madougu crystal with the kanji claw on it.) recca : a crystal with the word claw? yanagi (shocked) : [she actually took it out from that place...... fuuko’s so brave.] recca : could it be tsumemaru’s... fuuko (smile) : well, it is. fuujin plus...... onitsume! (she places the crystal in the spot of the missing main crystal, fuujin suddenly is working up something.) fuuko : that is... (shocked recca) my secret weapon...... kazetsume! (her fuujin grew claws...) recca : fuujin and onitsume combined? what the hell? kagero : combining two madougu...... I haven’t seen it used this way till now. [before fuuko went on training, she asked me......] fuuko (flashback) : [kagero, why don’t I have the wind crystal on my fuujin?] side text : fuujin is one of the top maodougu! even without the center crystal, the four surrounding crystals can still work. now, the center crystal is lost, so it can’t use one hundred percent of the strength, if the crystal is located, the power must be amazing! fuuko : [hn. but when I first got it, there was a crystal.] kagero : [oh, that...... I made it to control your mind, I’m sorry.] fuuko (examining her fuujin) : [is that so...... then...... we can put other crystals in?] (now, rushing at fujimaru) ahhhhh— side text : kazetsume element = wind, claw after the combination, the vacuum created by fuujin will form the shape of claws. fujimaru (block the attack) : heh! (the claws even though blocked, passes through the scythe still heading for fujimaru, it slashes him.) fujimaru : ahhhh! (bleeding) kagero : this girl...... is a genius. recca : fuuko’s a genius? don’t they have that in video games? (diagram of a playstation vs. fuujin) putting CDs into the players...... kagero : and fuuko based it on this idea, combining the two madougu into one. it’s a great idea...... call it a new discovery, the genius to discover the madougu! domon (lying on yanagi’s lap, making the V symbol) : that’s right! fuuko’s a genius! recca (eyes bulging) : what do you think you’re doing! how dare you lie on princess’s lap! fujimaru (meanwhile, begging) : i... I’m sorry! I over did it! It’s really because you are a really good girl! i... I am the weakest in the kuu...... (tears) I don’t even want my weapon...... please forgive me...... audience : what the hell, that guy’s actually crying. looks real...... so kuu’s like this huh...... daikoku : fujimaru! don’t humiliate us even more...... minamio : huh! fuuko (exhale, turn around) : don’t have to call me a good girl-- I forgive you! (a shadow rises behind her, with very sharp claws. the claws tear off the rest of her shirt) fujimaru : the third piece-- next, I’m gonna strip you! ugly! so I lied! (recca looks mad, tokiya still STILL cool, fuuko turns around... she is enraged.) end of volume 5 chapter 8 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ Email | Lynx | Updates | Sign My Guestbook | View My Guestbook ] Search the Net [1]
