Music was playing in the background. The strings of the viola vibrated softly. The humble humming of the waterfall filled the atmosphere with tenderness. If this were your dream, would you ever wake up?
No.
‘Nobody wake me up..., i want to stay here forever...No...i want to......”
“Wake up Yuri.....”
“Ie..”
“Yuri....onegai...wake up...”
“Yamene Ryosuke...leave me alone....”
“Okay, I’ll leave you alone. But then don’t tell me i left you alone in school ne baka...”
“He dosen’t wanna go home?” Yuto’s confused voice came from behind.
“Oh no...he’s gonna make us carry him home...oh no.....oh no...” Daiki sounded concerned. “Ill crush my poky carrying him...sniff....” his eyes filled with tears...
“Itai!”
Inoo hit Daiki gently on the head. “Lets just pick him up and donate him to the girls hostel.....waddaya say?”
“OOOOIII!! IM AWAKE!!!” Yuri yelled his eyes red from sleep.
JUMP roared into laughter as Keito pulled Yuri to his feet. “Ikou....”
**********************
“What are you doing here anyway, INoo..? “
Inoo smiled enjoying the fact he had already graduated high school, as JUMP made their way down the street. “Im just here to fetch you guys to the stadium ne, Johnny san said he has something important to tell us....thats all.”
Yamada smiled cheekily. “Oh, i thought you missed us...”
Yuto spat out his water smirking. Inoo rolled his eyes...”As if...”
“No no...he missed me....and the roller-coaster...ne?” Daiki asked cheekily. Inoo’s footsteps suddenly changed to a faster speed. “NO i did not....”
Chinen still walked sleepily. “ I missed you...”
“EH???” Ryutaro let out gazing at sleepy Yuri. Yuto and Yamada both exchanged glares. “Ne INoo....marry him wontcha?” Daiki said patting him on the shoulder, blinking big goo goo eyes at Yuri’s sudden confession. Inoo pushed away Daiki slightly irritated, then moved towards Yuri. “Ooi baka, still haven’t woken up yet...Daijobu ne?”
Yuri rubbed his eyes. “Daisuki...”
“EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?”
Inoo jumped into Daiki’s arms as Yamada and Yuto both moved towards Yuri. “WAKE UP! “
Ryutaro nodded as Keito pulled out his water bottle. “This should do the trick...”
“Gomen ne Yuri...” Keito said gently opening the bottle and aimed it at Yuri.
Before anything happened, a strange sound came from behind them. A big gang of boys came out from behind the other corner of the street. Then Inoo realised it was a little too late to be on this path...an empty street in the middle of two huge abandoned buildings. He stood up. “Yuto behind me...” he beckoned to all of them. Yuto nodded and pulled a flabbergasted Ryosuke and Ryu faster behind Inoo towards Daiki, Keito and unfortunately, the still dazed Yuri.
“Looky here...” one of the main boys roared as the twelve boys formed a circle around the glued JUMP members.
“No way....” Yamada said as the boys pulled out long wooden sticks. Ryutaro backed off immediately at the sight of the boys. They had an awful aura around them, like those kids who just skipped school to get into drugs and stuff. Not the people to mess with.
“What do you want?” Inoo said, with a firm voice. His both hands clasped around the younger members. Although Yuto was more then ready to step forward, INoo held him back.
“NAnde ne...JUMP member, want to take this road home?”
Daiki pushed away Inoo’s arm. “We are not going home, and we have no business with you...so leave us....ne”
The boys laughed. “But we have business with you ne POKI chan....”
The boys started laughing. Daiki’s hands grew into fists.
Yamada grabbed CHinen’s arm. “Yuri....”
“Loosers...” Yuri muttered. Inoo jolted. Yuto’s hand moved towards Yuri’s mouth. The boys stopped laughing and glared. “What did he say?”
“Ne, we are going...” Inoo said.
“Let me see you try....” one of the boys replied. The boys closed in. Inoo attempted to push them away from JUMP, but one against twelve.....was of no use. Darkness evolved them...
**********
“YAMENASAI...” a small voice came from behind. The twelve boys turned round as Yamada massaged his bloody lip. Inoo had blacked out completely after having twelve thugs throw numerous blows at him for being in front of the other members. Yuto was completely covering Yuri, and Keito and Daiki were holding Ryu, who was bleeding profusely on the head.
A big group of girls was standing in the street staring blankly at the one girl who had stopped the brutal act of the boys by shouting.
“Dare...?” one of the boys asked.
“GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF JUMP....” one of the girls roared.
“Girls come on ne.... back off....”
“There is twenty one of us and twelve of you, you wanna fight...”
“NO problem” The boys replied getting their sticks.
“IE..!.”
Yamada roared and stood up. “Leave them....”
The girls looked at each other. They were all dressed in untidy school uniforms. Most of them had dark eyes, (result of eyeliner and heavy glittery mascara..) which made seem rather threatening, but no doubt it seemed lovely at the same time.
At Yamada’s sudden uproar, they glanced at each other and once again looked at the girl in the front.
One of the boys with a huge snake across his shirt slapped Ryosuke so hard he fell. “Yamada! “ DAiki yelled and moved forward only to be tripped by another thug.
The girl who had spoken moved forward. “Do you know where we are coming from?”
“NO...wanna tell me kirei san...” the boy who had hit Ryosuke asked mocking her sweet voice. The other thugs laughed holding their sticks higher.
Suddenly one of the boys stopped laughing, he pulled the main thug closer. “See their badges....ne...”
The other guy also stopped laughing. Yuto moaned as blood oozed from his nose.
The girls were all wearing sashes across their bodies labelled
“TOKYO KARATE FINALS, REGIONALS,DAIA NO GAKUEN”
“Oh sh...” blurted the leader and dropped his stick.
“run....” the other one said silently retreating backward slowly.
“GET EM!” the girls yelled and they charged forward as the boys made a run from it. Keito couldn’t see properly through his bleeding eye but he did see that those who fought stood no chance against the girls.
Ryosuke grumbled as the girl in front of him got hit and she landed on top of him. “Gomen...”
She blurted as he held her arms. “Ie...Arigatou...you...help..”
She yelled as the hooligan behind her pulled her by her hair...Yuto roared and lunged onto the guy , surprising Keito to death as he completely knocked out the thug.
“WOW....street fighter...” the girl whispered as Yuto flushed... “Ie...he ano....arigatou na...”
And in a flash the scene changed. The men were gone, there were soft noises in the background, and cheers from many girls. Yamada felt himself be lift up...and Daiki muttered to his ear..
“ I was saved by a girl.....”
Yuri slept on......
And they lost complete consciousness.
