Sealing Souls – Kitties and Shotas

Written by: The (revised) Trio from Hell. A.k.a everyone who has a profile on this account.

To: AkiraLynn and Phantom-sempai

So I decided… This chapter would be funny, since the other two were… I dunno. Weird. xD Oh, later on it says 'I knew rich boys were weird'. No offense to Lavi-sempai, who's been stalking me and reading this. OH, Feliks came up with the title.
And Akiya's plush-toy obsession/thing is kinda like Mayu from Ai Yori Aoshi/Enishi. I'm not stealin' nothin'. :3

"U-uhm. . . . Kitade-san? Can I talk to you for a minute?"

Kitade jumped slightly when someone tapped her shoulder.
She turned after telling Xiang to wait for her and smiled at the. . . . No one.

"Who said that . . . ?"
"Kitade-chan, are you being haunted~, aru?"

Xiang made a face at her and laughed, resulting in Kitade tapping him on the head with her math book.

"I'm already haunted! Aiko! Remember?"
"Y-yeah. I remember, aru. . . . By the way, I heard there was going to be a transfer student from this really, really, really expensive school, aru!"
"That's right, Xi-baka. And he's bound to be cute!"

Hana, one of the 'popular' girls at school, laughed and tossed her hair over her shoulder.
Kitade scowled at her and took Xiang by the wrist.

"Let's go. It'd be better if tempers didn't flare."
"T-true, aru. . . ."

A few minutes later, they were talking with Tatabi and Ren in the classroom.

"So about the new transfer student, da?"
"I've heard he's rich, aru!"
"Do you think he's handsome~?"

Sebastien laughed and got hit on the head by Xiang.

"You are an idiot, aru!"
"Ow! You juzt got yourzelf a ticket to be hated ze rezt of ze day!"
"Well, that's fine, aru!"

Xiang and Sebastien turned their backs on each other and 'hmphed'.

"You two. . . ."
"Is that him?"

Kitade nodded toward a blond-haired boy standing in the doorway.

He looks like he's younger than me. What the carrot.

"Must be. I'm going to ask him."
"Oh, Ren! Wait for me!"

Tatabi hopped after him, leaving Kitade alone.
Xiang put his hand on her shoulder.

"I'm going to ask, too, aru. Do you want to come?"
"I guess I'll go."

Kitade shrugged and followed him.
He looked up at her and Xiang, smiled slightly and held out his hand.

"I'm Akiya Nagisaki."
"Kitade Hiraku. Is that from International Plushes. . . ?"

She pointed to the kitten plush he was holding.

"Yes, I got it for my birthday. I've got tons more at home, but not from I.P.I. How did you know?"
"He's cute, but he still carries that thing around. . . ?"

Hana was talking to her friend across the room, commenting on Akiya's implied obsession with the plushes.

Hee, I knew rich boys were weird. Wait, is this dude a shota. . . ?

"I have one too, at my house. It's a panda."
"A-aru ka. . . ."
"That's nice! Hey, would you like to see my collection after school?"

Tatabi, Ren, Xiang and Kitade turned to each other.

"I guess we'll go."
"Yeah! We have nothing else to do anyway, aru!"
"Good~. Well, I'm going to my seat. I'll see you!"

Xiang laughed and headed back to the window where Mikhail and Sebastien were.

"I guess we'll meet someone new later, aru kara?"
"Guess so, da!"

~Timeskip, If You Please~

"Wow, so this is your house?"
"Yep! Come on. Are you allowed to have ice cream out?"
"Kitade-chan, what's ice cream?"

Aiko popped up behind Kitade and poked her.

"I told you before."
"Oh, right."

Akiya turned and looked curiously at her.

"Who are you talking to. . . ?"
"O-oh, nobody."
"I thought I heard someone. . . . Ask about ice cream."

Ren and Kitade glanced at each other nervously.

"Uh, no, that was-"
"Never mind who it was! Just come on."
"Okay."

They followed him to a brightly painted room, filled with stuffed animals and. . . . Things.

"So! Here's my room~."

Akiya grinned and sat on the edge of his bed.

"My parents gave me this one for my eight birthday."

He held up a stuffed rabbit, giggling.

"And this one for my tenth birthday."

Akiya giggled and shrugged.

"That's nice. Hey, can I see that kitty you brought with you?"
"Sure. Here."
". . . .May I dismember it?"
"Can you put it back?"
"Yes."
"Go on."

Kitade quickly did so, but when she looked for the sealing tag, she found none.

"What are you looking for?"
"N-nothing. . . . Can I have a needle and thread, please?"
"Sure."

Akiya ran off to get one.
When he returned, Kitade fixed his kitty and handed it back to him.
They stayed for a while, but left when Kitade's mother called.

I wonder why the sealing tag wasn't there.

(A/N: I'm ending it here. Gotta watch moi horror. xDD))
