Following close behind Marv, as he went on his own little agenda for the day, a beautiful figure with long blonde hair, stood out among the darkness of the alley. She wanted to suprise him, as he didn't really ask her to go. She figured he was thinking that everyone stayed back at the school.
Then, she noticed he was looking for something. He seemed to notice a broom nearby and she could tell he was going for it. She carefully drew her sword, making sure that he could hear the blade gently sliding out of it's sheath and continued her approach. She's been waiting a long time for this.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(meanwhile, back at the school, the final class was let out early. Rain, Sarah and Kelly are all ready to leave... just waiting on a group of young girls that Rain was asked to protect a little earlier.)
"I can't believe the jerks could stoop this low Rain..." Sarah says to her brother, his arms crossed and eyes staring off into the distance, "What's gotten into them?"
"Not sure. I know I beat them pretty bad a couple of months ago... I'd figured they changed. Saw Joe the other day." Rain replies, snapping back to reality and walking past Sarah, "He said... that the gang had gotten back together... he doesn't like following them, but... they're his only friends. He still doesn't care too much to hang with us... considering we are 'royalty'. I hate title, but oh well. He seemed well. We'll probably see him soon enough." Looks behind him towards an approaching group of girls.
"Hey Rain! How's it going?" one of the girls asks.
"Heh... Great. Shall we get going?" The girls all seem to nod and the group heads out. Rain in front, Sarah and Kelly at his sides, the group of girls following.
Kelly seemed preoccupied with something. It was pretty easy to notice as it was showing brightly on her face.
"Whats wrong Kelly? You seem troubled." Rain asks, continueing the lead.
Kelly seemed to turn away briefly and then, she shared what was on her mind currently,
"Rain... why have you never asked me out?"
That was a question even Rain had constantly asked himself in the past. He stopped for a moment to let a few of the girls go home... there went most of the group. He then replied to Kelly.
"... I just... I just figured you were already with someone." Rain says as Sarah gets a mischevious look in her eyes.
"... That's not it... my brother is just too shy to ask you out. Hee hee!" Sarah proclaims, giggling the while.
"Whatever" Rain replies, still looking at Kelly.
"Well, if that's the case..." Kelly says, now red and being a bit shy, rubbing the toe of her shoe in the dirt, "Why don't we go out tonight? There's a concert at the Collossus."
"Damn... I wish I could Kelly, but... hey, why don't you come to our house? It may not be much of a first date, but my family will be down for dinner. How about it?"
"Alright! Sounds great!" Kelly replies.
"It's a date then... after we get these other girls home." Rain replies, and they continue on. Rain and Kelly talking about how long they've been attracted to eachother. Sarah piping in with details that Rain is skipping. The day had gotten a bit brighter for everyone.
