Pioneer Guardians Chapter 3
Determined to prove that Mariko-sama was lying or just joking around about having powers, Takamina leaves home two hours before school to guarantee herself not to be late.
"There is no way I am going to be late" Takamina says to herself smugly looking at her watch. "Mariko-sama sure likes to trick me"
Enjoying the beautiful weather, Takamina merrily takes big strides towards school. She turns into a street taking her daily route. As she looks around however, she seems something, more like someone familiar at a distant. "Eh? Yuko?" She says confused walking closer to where her friend is.
"EH!?!?! YUKO!?!?!" Takamina blurts out realizing that her friend is up on a tree.
"Yuko! Get down here! What are you doing!?!?!" She yells looking up at her friend
"Oh! Good morning Takamina!" Yuko flashes her friend a smile. "You know, just waiting on Nyan-Nyan" trying to look innocent
"Omg! Get down here. Now! Yuko, it's one thing being a pervert. But peeking into her HOUSE!?!??" Takamina shout as a vain becomes visible on her forehead.
"Uh oh" Yuko says in a whisper. Afraid of the angry Takamina. "I'm coming I'm coming" Yuko makes her descent.
"Careful that branch is not stro--" Takamina stops mid sentence at the sound of snapping.
Just like in slow motion, the branch Yuko tried to hold on to has snapped. Takamina runs and tries to catch her friend but does not make it in time.
Running to her side, Takamina find a groaning Yuko on the ground with the tree branch beside her.
"Yuko! Are you okay?!" Takamina looks in a panic.
"Ugh. I-i'm fine" Yuko says wincing in pain
"No you're not. Let me take a look" Takamina looks at Yuko's shoulder. "Eh Yuko. You've dislocated your shoulder"
"Oh I KNOW!" Yuko says in pain rolling her eyes in the process
"Eh. What do I do?" Takamina asks.
"Why are you even asking???? Just fix me up already!" Yuko looks at her friend with teary eyes
"Uh. Yuko, I can't." Replies an uneasy Takamina
Holding her shoulder, " Why the hell not?!?!" Yuko asks
"Erm" Takamina points at their surrounding
A small O forms on Yuko's lips as she sees their small audience of students passing by watching them
Just then, a car pulls over and a familiar face exits.
"Omg! Yuko! Are you okay?!?!" Says the small figure rushing towards the injured Yuko.
"Ah. Daijoubu" Yuko says still clutching her shoulder flashing a small smile at the new arrival
"Ohayo Tomochin!" Takamina smiles at the other girl
A big smile paints across her face flashing her famous fang "Ohayo Takamina! Yuko is getting herself in trouble again I see"
Rolling her eyes "Hello! Hurt person here" Yuko chimes in
"Let's get you to the hospital. This does not look good. My manager Togasaki-san and I were driving by and I saw you fall off. We had to stop." Tomochin now looks worried.
"Don't worry I'll be fine! I just need to be brought to the school and Takamina here will fix me up in no time! Right Takamidget?" Says Yuko still wincing in pain
"Call me Takamidget one more time and you'll have two dislocated shoulders instead of one" Takamina flashes a grin at Yuko before turning to Tomochin. "Really though, Tomochin. I'll take care of her. Don't worry"
"No no I insists! Togasaki-san! Let's take Yuko to the hospital" Tomochin calls out to her manager
"Of course. We wouldn't want your friend to be in any more pain" replies the man as he picks up Yuko from the ground carrying her like a sack of potatoes. He makes his way towards the car with Tomochin following suit
The stubborn Yuko, looks helpless in his arms. She shoots Takamina a pleading look.
"You coming Takamina?" Asks Tomochin
Takamina rooted on the ground flabbergasted at what just happened snaps out of her trace. "Y-yea"
-----------------------------
"How was your summer Takamina?" Tomochin asks at the smaller girl beside her.
"It was uneventful. You know, the usual. Doing homework and getting Yuko out of trouble. How about yours? Seemed very busy from all the press you've been doing." Takamina looks at Tomochin with admiration
"Oh it was nothing. I was mostly enjoying myself with every new thing." The popstar replies
"I don't know how you do it all. Being a popstar, a top student and not to mention member of the student council with us." Takamina then scoffs "It's not like you can be in two places all at once."
The giggling Tomochin replies "Wouldn't that be nice"
Yuko's voice can have heard on the other side of the door. "Hai, Hai, thank you very much."
Takamina and Tomochin gets up from their seats as Yuko steps out the door rolling her eyes as she closes it behind her. With her arm in a sling and a copy of her x-ray on the other, we looks at the other two. "You guys look like you've seen a ghost"
Takamina presents Yuko is a slightly strong pat on the back. "We were just worried. And these are relieved looks, stupid."
"Relieved?!?!" Yuko raises her voice as the three of them make their exit from the hospital. "The doctor says I can't do sports for at least 3 weeks! And I have a soccer game in a couple of days!"
"Look at the bright side Yuko, you can have Nyan-Nyan sign your sling" Tomochin tries to cheer the injured girl up.
"Don't give her any ideas Tomochin" Takamina says seeing Yuko's expression
"Well, Yuko. That's probably only if she doesn't find out HOW you got injured on the first place" Tomochin continues only to erupt with laughter joined by Takamina
Yuko in defensive mood chimes in "I wasn't peaking! I was waiting for her to leave home so we can walk to school together."
With that statement, Takamina and Tomochin bursts out into another set of laughter and in unison says "Sureeeeee"
"Mouuuu. Im the injured one here. You should feel sorry for me" pouts Yuko.
-------------------
Arriving at the school, Takamina releases an exasperated sigh as she looks at her watch. The three of them are almost an hour late. "Its just a coincidence" she tells herself.
Just then a familiar figure makes its way towards them.
"Well good morning!" Mariko-sama greets the students with a big smile. Causing Takamina to avert any eye contact with the headmaster.
"Ohayo Mariko-sama" the three of them bows to her.
"What do we have here??? Three student council members being late to class. What example are you setting for your juniors." Mariko shakes her head.
"Ano" Yuko speaks up "It was my fault Mariko-sama. I had an accident on the way to school" pointing at her arm. "I'm just lucky Tomochin and Takamina were there to help me. " Gomen." Says the bowing squirrel
Takamina and Tomochin exchange looks of disbelief at what's happening. Yuko taking the blame.
"Hmm. Alright if that's what happened I guess its okay." Mariko replies. "Its not like we can predict when something like this happens, right Takahashi-san" the headmaster looks at the president.
"H-hai" Takamina replies taken aback.
"Well of you go to class. I'm sure your teachers are wondering where you are" Mariko-sama waves them off.
Just when they were about to take a step forward Mariko sama speaks up. "Except for you Superstar. I'd like to speak with you"
Yuko and Takamina looks back at their friend.
"Hai. Mariko sama."
"I'll see you guys in class" Tomochin waves at the other two.
"Oh okay see you" Yuko and Takamina waves bye as they sprint towards their classroom hoping not to be any later than they already are.
-------------
Sitting in class, Takamina anxiously watches the class door waiting for Tomochin to arrive. With Mariko sama expressing her knowledge about Takamina's powers, Minami is jumpy whenever the headmaster interacts with anyone afraid that her secret will be exposed.
The bell rings signalling that it's time for lunch.
"Oi. Takamina. Let's go eat outside." Yuko approaches Minami's desk.
"Yea.alright." grabbing her things, Takamina and Yuko make their way to the school grounds.
Settling themselves on a bench near the soccer field.
"Hey Yuko, where do you think Tomochin is? She didn't come back to class" ponders Minami
Yuko points ahead of them. "Ask her yourself. Oh look she's got someone with her"
"Hi guys!" Tomochin heads toward the two along with another girl.
Takamina sounding relieved, "Hey. Thought we got you in trouble for being late"
"Oh no. Mariko sama asked me to show our new classmate around school. This is Maeda Atsuko" Tomochin motions to her left.
"Hello" the shy girl bows
"Hi. My name is Takahashi Minami, the student council President." Takamina reaches her hand out flashing her charming smile
Atsuko grabs Takamina's hand into a handshake causing the two to have a brief eye contact making them both look to instantly away hiding what seems like a blush on their cheeks.
"N-nice to meet you Takahashi-san" Atsuko stutters
"You can call me Takamina" Minami responds eyeing her best friend who is eyeing down the new student as if sniffing her new prey
"Don't be rude Yuko" Takamina pulls Yuko by the shirt
Bouncing on her feet "Oshima Yuko at your service. Student council Vice President" Yuko says with a toothy grin
"There are no better people to meet first than these two." Tomochin takes a seat on the bench. "They know this school like the back of their hands. And they pretty much run the school being the council and all"
"You forgot to mention. That you are part of the council too Tomochin" Takamina adds
"That's right Ms. Popstar, Ace student and Secretary." Yuko points at Tomochin with arched brows
"Hm. I'm sure you wouldn't want Nyan Nyan to break that other arm of yours Yuko" Tomochin points at the cast
Unable to respond, Yuko stuffs her mouth with her lunch filling her cheeks up causing her to look even more of a squirrel.
Turning to Atsuko "Have a seat and join us for lunch Maeda-san" Takamina motions on an empty spot on the bench
"Hai. Thank you Takahashi-san. But please call me Acchan. You guys can call me Acchan" Maeda informs the other two as well
"Hai. Acchan" Takamina, Yuko and Tomochin reply together.
The new student takes you her hefty sized bento and begins eating hungrily gaining the attention of her new friends.
"Oh. Looks like Acchan here is hungry" Yuko giggles
The new student blushes in embarrassment. "Did you guys want some?" She replies offering her sushi.
"Don't mind her. She has no manners" Takamina smacks Yuko's cast causing pain to appear all over the girls' face.
Tomochin interjects "Don't mind these two, they're always bickering"
Atsuko merely smiles entertained by her new friends and continues to eat her food.
******************
Strolling through the school halls during lunch break, something catches Yukirins' eyes.
" oh look Mayu! It's Takahashi-senpai and Oshima-senpai!" She point through the window at the school grounds seeing Takamina and Yuko animatedly bickering
" they always look like they're having fun aren't they" Yukirin continues
"Yea." Mayu timidly replies
"I don't understand what is your problem with them. They seem real nice" confused Yukirin asks her friend
"They give me bad vibes. They are different. They're not like our other classmates." Mayuyu begins to walk towards the classroom
"Eh. I don't get it. You're always talking in codes" Yukirin pretty much gives up on the subject hoping that Mayu would eventually say what's bugging her like she always have
********
"Ugh. How am I going to play in my soccer match next week with this stupid cast." Yuko talks to herself as she makes her way to the school grounds towards the sports equipment room.
"Takamina should just fix me already. Telling me to wait a couple of days so that it's not too obvious. Pfft. Whatever." Yuko continues to talk to herself.
Entering the equipment room, she heads to the bag searching for the bag of soccer balls for practice. Just as she arrives at the other end, the sound of a closing door sends a chill down her spine knowing full well what it meant. She runs to the door banging. "Oi!. Chotto Matte!!! Someone's still in here!!!"
The room door automatically locks once it's closed that's why a door stopper had been put in placed to keep it open.
Yuko heads straight to the window trying to pry it open but luck wants on her side, it was too high for her to reach. She finds cardboard boxes and stacks them. Yuko climbs the unstable support and reaches the window trying to force it open. One big hit on the window causes the boxes to fall taking the unprepared Yuko down with it. The impact was strong causing Yuko to hint her head on the ground knocking her unconscious.
Meanwhile, another student occupying the room jerks awake from her nap due to all the commotion. She investigates the cause of the noise only to find the knocked out girl on the floor.
"Eh???? Yuuchan. Daijoubo?!?! Wake up!!" The girl lightly pats the other girls' cheek.
The student frantically bangs on the door. "Eto. Anyone??? Help!!!!! Open the door"
She heads to check on Yuko. "Omg. Your head is bleeding" panic engulfed her voice. Taking Yuko in her arms, the squirrel slowly opens her eyes looks up at her savior.
"Nyan nyan.." Yuko says in barely a whisper unheard by the other girl.
Still panic, Haruna does not notice stirring Yuko in her arms. "Here goes nothing" says the taller girl
In that moment, a strange sensation flows through Yuko's body. And within a second, her surroundings had changed from the cramped equipment room to the sunny school grounds before finally losing consciousness.
