Mini Fanfic #1149: First Ever Pocky Game Attempt (King of Fighters)
3:54 p.m. K and Kula's Apartment..........
Leona: (Looks Down a Small Box of Different Color Coded Sticks Shingo's Holding in his Hand) So these are the Pocky Sticks you've been telling me about, Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: (Happily Nodded) Yep!~ One of Japan's finest snack treats with three different flavors. I....didn't know which one of these in particular you would like, so I picked the box with the most variety.
Leona: I see. (Picks up One of the Sticks Out of Box Before Examining it a Bit Closer) And the challenge states that I eat one end of the stick while you eat on the other simultaneously?
Shingo: (Nodded Some More) Yep-Yep! It's pretty simple really. Whoever's mouth comes off the Pocky or gets to the middle first loses. And if.....(Starts Blushing While Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) we reach to point of the both of us kissing, it'll be automatic tie.
Leona: (Snickrs a Bit) What's with the flustered face for, darling?~ You do know we've kissed many times before, right?
Shingo: Yeah, but this is the first time we're gonna do the Pocky Challenge, as an official couple! (Starts Twiddling his Fingers a Bit) I wanted it to be a little special....or worth your time at least, you know?
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness) Your sweetness alone is worth every bit of my time being spent.
Shingo: (Smiles Back) Yours too~ Now let's get started.
Leona: (Nodded To his Commend) Right! Shall we do this on the count of three?
Shingo: Yeah-yeah. (Starts Leaning a Little Closer to his End of the Stick) One......
Leona: Two..........
Shingo/Leona: Thr-
Before either side could even begin the challenge, Kula suddenly jumps up in the middle out of nowhere and takes a single, huge bite of the pocky completely, leaving the couple. In question flabbergasted.
Kula: (Gushes Happily on the Pocky She's Eating as She Slowly Floats Down at Towards her Seat) Mmm it's so delicious, i love it!~
Shingo: (Comically Glares at his Blue Haired Friend) What the heck, Kula!?
Leona: (Gives Kula an Older Sisterly Glare on her Face) What did we say about eating someone else's snacks without asking first?
Kula: (Clasps her Hands Together While Putting on a Apologetic Look on her Face) I'm sorry!~ K was telling me about what pockies looks like that I couldn't help but to taste one for myself.
Leona: (Pinches the Bridge of her Nose While Groaning in Annoyance) Of course K has something to do with nonsense....
?: To be fair.....
The trio turns to see K munching on one of the pockies while holding a box of them in his hand.
K: She did asked me about them beforehand. (Quickly Raises his Hand at Shingo, Abruptly Sopping Him From Yelling Out his Name) And before start blowing up a casket, I only wanted to taste one for myself and so far.....(Continues Munch While Nodding in Approval) Mm. These aren't half bad.
Shingo: (Takes a Very Deep Breath Before Gritting his Teeth, Trying his Hardest Not to Blow an Actual Casket) Well, K', if you REALLY wanted to.know what they tasted like, then why haven't you asked me to buy you a box WHILE I was at the store at the time?
K': Phone was charging.
Leona: (Raises an Eyebrow, Unconvinced) Really? And what was stopping you from texting him while it was charging.
K': (Shrugs) Thought never occurred at the time, I dunno.
Shingo scrunches his hands in anger as he tries to approaches K', only to be stopped by Leona when she place her hand onto his shoulder and shakes her head at him, calming him down instantly as he sits back down in his seat and lets out a sigh of pure defeat.
Shingo: Glad you enjoyed the Pocky, K'. Truly.
K': Thanks, but I rather saved my appetite for our movie night coming up. (Turns to Kula While Lifting The Box Up a Little) Want the rest these, Kula?
Kula: (Let's Out a Gasps Before Turning to Shingo and Leona) Can I really have rest of them?
Shingo: (Smiles Sheepishly at Kula) Sure.
Leona: (Smiles as Well) Knock yourself our, Kula.
Kula: (Let's Out a Happy Squeal Before Hugging the Couple) Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!~
Kula rushes over to K' as he gives her the rest of the pocky sticks for her to eat.
K': If you lovebirds need me, I'll be in the kitchen seeing if Bogard got the pizzas yet. (Makes his Way to Kitchen With a Pocky Munching Kula Following Behind) I'm starving.
Shingo/Leona: 'Kay.
Shingo: ('Sighs Heavily') I love these two, but they can be a real headache sometimes......
Leona: Kula isn't too difficult to deal with at times. (Rolls her Eyes) Which is more than I can say for K' oddly enough......
Shingo: Tell me about it. Sorry that our first ever Pocky Challenge had to end like that. If I've known that would happen sooner, I would've brought two boxes instead of just one.
Leona: (Gives her Boyfriend a Reassuring Smile) That's quite alright, Shingo-Kun, I'm not opposed to trying again next year. Although, I do believe there's an alternative we could both do while making up for lost times. (Pulls Out a a Lipstick From her Pocket)
Shingo: (Eyes Widened a Bit in Genuine Surprise) Wait, timeout. You actually wore makeup before, Leona-san? I never even noticed.
Leona: I usually wear a few on some occasions. (Carefully Puts Lipstick onto her Lips) Even then, I wouldn't say I was ever completely fond of them to begin with.
Shingo: (Starts Blushing a Bit) Oh, well....I-I think you look amazing, with and without 'em on, ypu know?
Leona: (Smiles Softly) Why, thank you~ It means so much to hear you say that. (Smile Turns into a Seductive Smirk) As reward for your undying kindness, allow me to give you the loving and comfort you very much deserve, dar~ling-
Shingo: (Quickly Sticks his Hand Put Before Getting Up From his Seat) Wait! Before we start doing ANYTHING, let me do some stretches first, i-if ypu don't mind of course
Lrona: Not at all. Stretches can be beneficial for one's body in the long run.
Shingo: (Starts Stretching his Arms.....) Right? (.....Then his Back.....) It's super important! (.....Then Squats Down and Stretch Both his Legs Out) Helps you get more flexible resilient for years down the road with no strings attached. (Gets Back Up on his Feet)
Leona: How are you feeling right now?
Shingo: (Place his Hands onto Both his Hips With a Proud Smile on his Face) ('Whew') I feel like I'm falling a bit behind from my stretching routines there, but other than that, I'm feeling pretty good for the most part. Ready whenever you are-
Leona immediately pulls Shingo in a very loving kissing on the lips before pulling away for a second, leaving her boyfriend love struck in complete awe.
Shingo: W-W-Wow......That....might be our best kiss yet.......
Leona: (Taking a Bit if a Breather) Y-Yeah......I-I think so too.....But we are NOT done yet, mister~
Shingo: Yeah? Well....G-Give me your best shot, ma'am! No holding back!~
Leona: Gladly~ (Resumes Back to Making Out with her Boyfriend on the Sofa)
K': Oi, lovebirds! Rock says he'll be here in a few minutes with the pizza. (Walks Back Into the Living Room) I even convinced him to buy you two a new pack of Poc-
K' looks down to see Leona kissing all over a lovestruckend Shingo Yabuki's face before letting out his signature sigh.
K': (This is a very unsurprising turn of events and icky one nonetheless. (Shrugs) Eh. I'll let 'em be for now. It's the least I can do for ruining their little game.)
K walks back to the kitchen, leaving the couple alone in their session without either of them even noticing their friend's presence in the first place.
Happy (Yet Another) Belated Pocky Day, Everyone!~

Title: Vampire’s Kiss (Chapter 20: Unreachable Sin. Part 11 of 18)
Fandom: King of Fighters
Characters: Kyo Kusanagi, Iori Yagami, Shingo Yabuki, Orochi, Yashiro Nanakase, Leona Heidern, Kain R. Heinlein, Chizuru Kagura, Kusanagi, Goeniko, Chris
Pairing: Iori Yagami x Kyo Kusanagi (main one)
Genre: AU, BL, Supernatural, Fantasy, Gothic Fantasy, Adventure, Slow-Burn, Eventual Romance, Dark Themes, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff, Human/Vampire Relationship, Human/Demon Relationship
Summary: This vampire already has bad luck on his side, yet he decides that his next prey going to be a certain redhead vampire hunter. However, the very little he knows how this encounter will end…
AO3 Link
A/N: Also a short explanation for (1) marked word: (1)Nekomata - One particularly monstrous breed of bakeneko is the two-tailed variety known as nekomata. Bakeneko - Bakeneko possess great shape-shifting abilities and disguise themselves as smaller cats or humans—sometimes even taking the shape of their own masters -------------------
A week full of training has nearly passed~ During that time one certain vampire surely had no rest at all thanks to that stupid hunter. Just what was he thinking by constantly tossing knives at him and cracking his whip towards him? Hell, that fool was a demon or something? No, even any demon or monster can’t be so persistent and stubborn as this foolish human. Or so Kyo sometimes doubt. Last time, one of Yagami's knives flied so closely to his chest, arms and neck. So, it was a matter of a second to dodge the multiple knives thrown at once.
More important, this redhead started to use small bottles of water time from time during the training session. So, now not only this vampire has to dodge his more or less a familiar pattern of hunter’s attacks, but also make sure that the water won't touch his gloves. Surely, this human becomes quiet lively and enjoying every moment of training with Kyo, doesn’t he? Or so, started to notice this brunette, who just got used to play along with Yagami’s rules.
On other hand, it seems that Chizuru didn't mind what this certain pair of idiots were doing - as long as they are not around her shop, she was fine, or so this sorceress mentioned to them. At least these two are not scaring away the customers by making a dramatic scene or complaining about one or another. Sometimes she could swear that it was like taking care of a younger siblings, who are talented enough to cause problems out of nowhere. But for now, this witch could finally have a moment of peace and relax while they were busy somewhere else.
However, even on such a fine evening this brunette was under the care of this redhead. It seems that no matter that it was a chilly night, this vampire didn’t bothered to put his white jacket. First of all, he can easily warm up when he needs to deal with Yagami. Secondly, he didn’t wanted to ruin it because even if it was pretty expensive present, but also no matter that it might be embarrassing, he liked the design of it. Plus, he doubted that he can expect Iori to be generous twice. So, he decided to keep this jacket safe at least during the training session. Besides, this redhead didn’t bother to put his long coat either and was just fine by being in his long sleeved white shirt and black leather vest.
And thus, in the middle of open field near the forest the sounds of whip cracking, the clashing blade and bursting flame, disturbed the silence of the night. It seems that this vampire was lucky enough to dodge the knife attacks from the sides by carefully manoeuvring. However, now he has to deal with the one sent directly at his neck. Just as he bends backward, the sharp blade flies above him. Now Kyo stands straight and takes a battle stance. He sends a small wave of orange flame towards his opponent.
Yet the redhead hunter blocks this attack by low whip cracking. The sparkles of orange flame dances in the air before it submerges into the air unlike the fire in redhead hunter’s eyes. Nevertheless, this vampire jumps high towards his target and ignites his fist. Now he’ll just make that Yagami will finally snuff his fire.
Even if it was a brief moment, but it felt like the time stopped for this brunette once their eyes met. This nocturnal creature’s guard was off after noticing the way hunter’s gaze fixated on him. Surely, Iori’s eyes were sparkling with a thrill and full of life. However, along that, this vampire could sense such burning impatience despite the calm stance of this redhead.
Now Kyo was snapped back to his senses once Yagami sends an upper slash with his trustworthy weapon. This Kusanagi was paralyzed by stinging and burning pain by the strike of the leather rope all across from his abs to his chest. This brunette harshly fells on his back and lets out a loud groan. Although, while Kyo tried to sit up by shakily pushing himself with elbows, he just gave more fiery and stubborn gaze to his opponent. There is no way that this redhead hunter will win this time, or so, this vampire believed. However, Iori shown no mercy upon this nocturnal creature.
Now he picks three knives from the pouch on his left side of belt. While approaching his target, Yagami raises his hand with the blades and about to toss them at once. However, it was close enough if this brunette didn’t rolled on to his left. As knives sunk into the grass, Kyo kneels and when he brings his gloved hand to his mouth, he removes it by his teeth and tosses aside. It seems that relying on his flame was not enough.
Once the glove touched the ground, he rises his spread palm higher. Now the sharp nails shows up and this vampire dashes at the hunter. However, just the moment before the impact, Iori moves away. Nevertheless, it was nearly close enough for Kyo to slash him with his nails. This brunette masterly lands on his feet like a cat, but without hesitation dashes again at his opponent. He hoped that maybe he could strike this redhead from his other side.
However, Yagami’s reaction was quicker - he sends a spin kick at this brunette. Lastly, Kyo was sent flying-off until he harshly hits the ground. While this brunette manages to sit up, he covers his belly with his arm. This vampire tries to stand up one more time, but he was stopped by the hunter’s voice ‘‘Enough…You’re already barely standing, you stupid vampire.’’.
Unfortunately, the training ended with the same result. However, this Kusanagi could swear that it was that close enough to hit Yagami if it wasn’t for being distracted. While this vampire was getting-off the dust from his black t-shirt and from the front side of jeans, he speaks to the hunter in annoyed tone ‘‘You know, I let you win on purpose, so, you better be glad that I didn’t roasted you for good.’’. Once he looks at this redhead, who finished wrapping his whip and placed on his right side of the belt, this brunette comments ‘‘Anyway, it seems that you looked so excited just for a training. Wonder why…’’.
Iori only cracks a smile and briefly replies ‘‘I’m just wondering what you can do when you fully recover. So, I’ll need wait as much as needed, because you might be the one who can satisfy me.’’. Now Kyo gives a smug look on his face and after he walks close enough this redhead, he vampire wraps his one arm around the hunter’s shoulder and answers in nearly singing voice ‘‘Then dream on~ ‘Cos you’ll be under my foot and being drained until the last drop when it happens. So, you may start to practice your lines when you gonna beg for mercy and prepare all my wanted answers.’’.
However, it seems that the redhead hunter didn’t liked how this Kusanagi become too cocky and so, he puts him back to his place by back-firing in slight mocking tone ‘‘First, stop acting like a cat. Unless, you are somehow a half-breed of nekomata(1) and vampire.’’. Surely, Kyo widens his eyes and tried to back-off once he removed his arm from hunter’s shoulder. However, now this vampire felt how one of this redhead’s arm wraps around his waist. He didn’t wanted to give up so easily to this foolish human and without hiding the surprise in his voice, he tells ‘‘What are you talking about? I ain’t some kind of hybrid. I’m pure-blooded vampire, unfortunately! Not sure why you think that I’m a cat. Like heck, I look or act as a one!’’.
Yagami closes his eyes and sighs - it was really hard to keep his poker-face when this brunette indignantly yet impatiently starred at him with such a big eyes. Does he really have to put such an acting? Could it be that this stupid vampire just being easily provoked by a simple comment? Or so wondered this redhead hunter. However, maybe it was better chance to find out about more about Kyo’s weird behavior when he was sleeping. So, no matter how it might been more amusing to tease this vampire, but Iori’s curiosity was more stronger. And thus, he deeply exhales and asks ‘‘I can understand why you have fangs and claws. However, explain me one thing. Why are you making purring and meowing-like noises during your asleep. Or is it a normal thing for you or your kind?’’.
Surely, this brunette was speechless and after short pause he replied slightly shaky voice ‘‘Don’t you think that you get away by thinking-off random excuses for your weird behaviour. Just because I was unconscious, it doesn’t mean that you can take an advance of me and lie without even blinking. Hell, you think that I’m aware of anything around me while I’m asleep or unconscious?’’.
Now this vampire lowers his head for a second and when he returns his gaze, he continues in concern tone ‘‘However, I can still remember that when we were in storage, you were waaay to stressed and very scared of losing...someone, I g-guess. I could even sense that you were so desperate and just seek for a comfort. Of course, I wanted to snap you out of this and show that ‘everything is fine’, ‘I’m over there and still fine and alive’, you idiot! So, if it wasn’t for being unable to move my body, I…’’, it seems that the further words stuck inside this brunette’s throat and now he lowered his head and averted his gaze from Iori.
Just why this vampire have to behave like this or achieve by these words? Yet one one thing for sure, this nocturnal creature didn’t looked too cunning or smart to deceive this hunter. He was simply too honest and acted on impulse without thinking about any consequences. However, just in case, he needs to know for sure whenever this brunette is deceiving him or not. For some reason he felt that it could assure him. So, now Iori brings Kyo closely to him. There was barely any space left between them.
Now this places his hand under this brunette’s chin and gently tilts his head. So, this vampire only swallows saliva as he widens his eyes and now impatiently waits how this unpredictable man going to act. Yagami only silently fixates his gaze on this brunette and after a short pause comments in calm tone ‘‘You don’t look smart enough to trick me, nor you’re a nekomata, that’s for sure. You’re just a trouble-maker, who keeps me causing constant problems, you stupid vampire…’’. Of course, this Kusanagi frowns and was about to open his mouth to tell not the kindest words to this hunter, however, Iori places the same hand behind Kyo’s head and now presses it against his chest.
This brunette widens his eyes for a moment, but as soon as he hears the heartbeat of this redhead, he nearly closes his eyes, it was simply so relaxing and calming. So, maybe it wouldn’t hurt to rest his head for awhile like this. More important, Kyo realized that this time he was able to control his body, so, now he stretches his arms and wraps his arms around Yagami’s neck. After this vampire lifts his head, he looks at this redhead with strangely sleepy gaze.
Even so, his one hand gently slides up from Iori’s neck towards his hair and starts to brush it. Yagami could feel how was slightly shaking Kyo’s hand yet he just allowed this nocturnal creature act as he wants. Besides, he was curious what this vampire was up to. However, this brunette says in nearly purring tone while keeping a calm look on his face ‘‘You keep doing things like these too. So, I just want you to taste how does that feels like. Don’t you think that you’re get away so easily after what you’ve done to me. Once I’ll fully recover, I’ll make it up for what you’ve done, but with doubling it up.’’.
However, a little fire sparkles in the hunter’s eyes and now he delightfully smiles as he replies ‘‘Then why don’t you try it already? I won’t accept any less than your best. So, don’t disappoint me when that day will come, Kyo.’’. Nevertheless, this vampire counter-attacks in sweeter tone ‘‘I’ll make you realize that you’ve made a huge mistake by teaching me how to defeat you.’’.
After this brunette chuckles, he gazes with shyer look on his face. Now he continues ‘‘But for now, I’ll show you what happens when you try to tame a wild beast.’’. Kyo just swallows saliva and closes his eyes. After he slightly opens his mouth, he presses his lips against Iori’s. Despite that he felt how he could melt in same spot, this brunette’s tongue tries carefully slip inside Yagami’s mouth. Surprisingly, this redhead lets him in and this vampire started to explore every part of Iori’s mouth without missing a single spot.
However, it seems that soon enough this nocturnal creature started to let out quiet whims in between catching his breath. Hell, even if he felt how his knees could give up on him any second, but now also Iori started to gently slide the same hand, which was placed on vampire’s waist, upwards. So, now Kyo more tightly hold into the hunter’s back. Just when he expected something more to happen, this redhead slowly with-draws his head away.
After opening his eyes, he notices how this vampire was still all blushing while catching his breath and dazing. Maybe it was still too much to handle for this nocturnal creature, but Iori had to admit it, it was quiet daring move from this vampire’s side. However, soon enough Kyo was back to his senses despite having his cheeks dyed in that lovely red. While he starred at Yagami, he comments in purring tone ‘‘Just look at yourself…You’re all blushing, was it too much for you to handle?~ I warned you though.’’.
Of course, such a comment of this brunette caught this redhead’s guard off, but once he removes his arms around the vampire, he tells in slightly shy tone ‘‘Anyway, for today you’ve had enough. Go and rest before another day. Because tomorrow, we’re setting on new journey. This time I won’t interface and I’ll just observe you.’’ and turns his head from this brunette.
In the end, Kyo just gives a smug look on his face while observes such a reaction of the hunter and now replies ‘‘What is it with you, Yagami? You don’t need to rush and whatever there is tomorrow can wait. So, why don’t we just sit back and stay for awhile?’’. After looking back at this vampire, Iori sighs and closes his eyes. Without telling a word he sits on his knees and now he prompts Kyo in slight annoyed tone ‘‘So you’re joining or not?…Just hurry up before I changed my mind, you stupid vampire.’’.
Of course, after this demand this Kusanagi joins him and now once he places his arms behind Yagami’s shoulders, he rest his head on this hunter’s chest. Strangely, but Iori didn’t minded to stay like this and somehow was even glad for such a peaceful moment.

What the Ships Say About You Part 2.
Been a long while since I've done this, but let's get this shipfest started, shall we?
Wolf x Isabelle: You've always had a thing for werewolves and bad boys. So much so that you believe that you could fix either one of them if you were to ever given the opportunity.
Samus x Chun-Li: Your interest in crossovers outweighs your interest in hot, badass women who could easily kick your ass within seconds.
Giovanni x Spike x Crusher: You just want Spike and Crusher to be happy and fulfill their dreams into dating their own boss. And really, who wouldn't?
Mario x Peach: Any interest you have in video games outweighs your fondness of married couples.
Vector x Vanilla: This is kind of similar to Mario x Peach, but you may or may not also have interest in older, mature women, not that there's anything wrong with that inherently.
M&M (Moxxie x Millie): You just want a wholesome marriage or you're just a slut for violence and Men. Getting. Pegged.
Lea x Isa: You've been the Yaoi fandom for years now and your ideal relationship is that one meme of two guys sitting in a hot tub together.
Dark Pit x Misako x Kyoko: You saw the original ending of River City Girls and instantly wanted the two girls to find happiness elsewhere or you just want Pitto to be loved. It's a win-win for you either way.
Banjo x Kazooie: You're a sucker for the friends to lovers trope, so much so that you could care less if they're from a different species, as long as they're happy together.
Shingo x Leona: Either you want a lovable goofball and a silent, tough girl to hook up one day or you just want good things to happen to Shingo and Leona respectively. And really, who wouldn't at this point?
Aqua x Terra: Your ideal relationship is Team Moms and Team Dads.
Dedue x Mercedes: Basically the same as Aqua x Terra but with a little more wholesomeness and spice to add up the flavor. That and/or you want Deude to live a happy, peaceful life once.
Terry x Blue Mary: You just like seeing couples who causally hangs out with one another or your a slut of Men. Getting. Pegged but not so much as you originally were for M&M.
Krohnen x Angel: You've grown tired of the "Will They or Won't They?" Bullshit (Andy x Mai/ Ryo x King) to the point of your interest gets instantly set on the Angsty Bad Boy and Ditzy Hot Girl dynamic or you're a just Vegeta x Bulma fan.
Krillin x Android 18: You're a firm believer of this ship being one of the best ships the Dragon Ball series has the offer or you just think Krillin deserves a W for once and not get joked on a lot on internet which is too much to ask apparently....
Broly x Cheelai: You either really like Super's version of Broly and want good things to happen to him in the long run or you just want a giant teddy bear to hug on a daily basis.
Ridley x Dark Samus: You're an incel who only got lucky.

Mini Fanfic #1132: Cuddly Date Night (King of Fighters)
9:45 p.m. at Yabuki's Residence's Living Room........
Leona: Unbelievable~ (Cuddling Under a Blanket With Shingo on the Loving Room's Sofa While Smirking Seductive at Him) Cuddling with the Colonel's daughter at the comforts of your own home?~ (Starts Snuggling Up on Him) How very scandalous of you indeed!~
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly and Ticklishly by his Girlfriend's Snuggles) Easy for you to say!~ Snuggling up with your cute boyfriend in his own home is a pretty rebellious move on your end, ma'am~
Leona: (Raises an Eyebrow While her Smirk Starts Getting a Little More Wider) You're cute you say?~
Shingo: (Eyes Begins to Widened at the Realization of What He Just Said) Cute? H-Handsome! Handsome. W-What I meant to say that you're snuggling up with handsome, cute- Ah dang it! (Starts Pouting a Little While Twiddling his Fingers) Can we start over? I messed up on a few lines......
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Shingo!~ There's nothing wrong with being labeled as "cute". It's one of many traits I love about you~
Shingo: ('Sigh') I know, but I wanted to sound more cool and rebellious like you did a second ago.
Leona: Well, I'm flattered you think highly of me amd performance~ (Smiles Sheepishly) Though, to be honest, I don't think I have what it takes be an actual rebel.....
Shingo: Same. I'm too chicken to cause trouble on purpose for the life of me....
Leona: (Shrugs) It's seems we're both too pure for this troublesome world I suppose.
Shingo: I don't mind the sound of that. As long as we're in this together.
Leona: (Smiles Softly) Of course~
Shingo: (Gives his Girlfriend a Kiss on The Lips Before Sighing in a Relaxed Manner) I'm so glad I have the day off tomorrow......
Leona: (Frowns a Bit in Worry) I take it your day at work today was stressful this time around.
Shingo: ('Sighs a Bit Heavily') Yeah....Something like that. Rude customers constantly rushing us to get their orders done, I had to break up a fist fight shortly after while having a cup of coffee thrown at my face.
Leona: Oh no. Was it hot and scolding?
Shingo: No, it wasn't fortunately, but it wasn't any less annoying that's for sure. Then after that, some big guy with glasses starts barging into the shop, and rather than order his drink like any sane person here, he instead starts going around demanding us to bring Athena out and give him a Psycho Ball across the face!
Leona: (Genuinely Couldn't Believe What She's Hearing Right Now) Why....couldn't he asked for an autograph instead? That would've clearly been more safer.
Shingo: THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING!! But when i tried to tell him that and Athena's busy at the moment, he started yelling at me about how I'm just some common slave worker who doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as her, let alone be associated with her establishment to begin with!
Leona: (Forms a Darken Glare on her Face) You don't say......
Shingo: (Quickly Calms Leona Down) N-N-Now hold on, Leona-san! There's no need for you to worry! Really!
Leona: (Slowly Calms Herself Down) Are you sure?
Shingo: Positive! I mean, sure, what he said was upsetting and it almost made me wanna punch the guy, but lucky for him, Malin and Hinako were able to kick him out before another fight happened. 'Thena even went out of her way to make caramel tea to help calm my nerves before it was finally time for me to clock out for the day.
Leona: ('Sighs in Relief') That's good to hear. I'm happy we have to day to ourselves tomorrow.
Shingo: You're off too, Leona-san?
Leona: (Simply Nodded) That's right. Father insisted I take the a day or two off to a change.....(Smiles Softly) And luckily for you, I'm more than willing to spend every moment of with you, darling~ (Starts Snuggling Up on Shingo Some More)
Shingo: (Smiles Back While Blushing) Yeah~ How was your day, Leona-san? I hope it wasn't as bad as mines.
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Don't worry, it wasn't. It went a lot better than I expected it would go actually.
Shingo: Nice! Did anything exciting?
Leona: Not really? I was tasked to train and instruct some of the new recruits in the lower ranks while Ralf and Clark were away to their mission.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Surprise) You did? That's so cool! What did you taught them?
Leona: Only the basics: How to prepare themselves in the battlefield, how to aim and shoot at the target precisely, how to blend in with their surroundings without begin seen by the enemy, and so fourth.
Shingo: Were you nervous?
Leona: A little, but it didn't take too long for me to work up the courage to the take the lead fortunately. It also helps that the recruits were all cooperative throughout the whole ordeal.
Shingo: That's good. Does it feel like something you wanna do again sometime in the near future?
Leona: I suppose, but only when I'm ordered to do so again. I don't think I have the capabilites become a full fledged leader just yet.
Shingo: That's understandable. Leadership takes a lot of work from what I've heard.
Leona: You've heard right. It takes years of building trust and forming a strong connection with your fellow comrades into becoming one. Both qualities I must learn if I were to ever lead again.
Shingo: (Gives Leona a Reassuring Smile on his Face) Don't be afraid to give it your all. I know you'll become a great leader one of these days.
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness) And I know you'll become even more a stronger fighter than you are now. Which is why we are going to the gym and train first thing tomorrow morning.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened Again) On our day off!?
Leona: (Gives Shingo a Stern, Yet Cute Looking Pout on her Face) Don't act suprise, mister. You know as well as I do that we've been falling behind in our training sessions as of late, thanks to our work schedules.
Shingo: ('Sigh') True. And I have been wanting to try out a few new moves I've came up recently.....Can we go to gym at 10am instead at least?
Leona: I suppose we can do that. But ONLY if you give me more of your loving for the reminder of the night. That's am order
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Yes, ma'am~ (Starts Kissing on Leona's Cheeks)
Leona: (Giggles Ticklishly by her Boyfriend's Kisses) Shingo-Kun, you adorable dummy! Slow down a bit, will ya?~
Shingo: (Stops Kissing Leona For a Second Before Chuckling Some More) What?~ You said it was an order.
Leona: (Starts Calming Herself Down From all the Giggling) I did, I did. But you haven't given me the time to prepare myself yet.
Shingo: Right. Sorry about that. Take as much time as you need, 'hon.
Leona: Thank you. (Takes a Deep Breath Before Smiling Brightly Again) Okay! Now I'm ready~
Shingo: One kissing session coming right up!~
And so Shingo resumes back to kissing Leona on the cheeks, causing her giggle amd smiling even more ticklishly than she did originally under his embrace as the movie they were previously watching, continues to play the whole time.

Mini Fanfic #1109: Rivalry Beach (King of Fighters)
12:19 p.m. Southtown's South Beach............
Krohnen: (Walks up to his Arch Nemesis, K' Dash) Well well well. If it isn't one of Ikari Warriors' Lapdogs, K'Dash.
K': Krohnen. You're looking more of a whiney shit-stain than usual I see.
Krohnen: ('Tch') This is rich coming from a lazy ass failure who's still second fiddle to that Kusanagi prick.
K': At least I know how to keep my flames in check. Unlike a blue haired punk in front of me who still don't know his own place.
Krohnen: (Already Fuming in Anger as He Turns his Arm into a Drill and Points it at K') I KNOW how to control my own powers just fine, shithead! And I'll be more than happy to give you full course test drive if you keep fucking with me!
K': (Grits his Teeth at Krohnen) Try landing a hit on me. (Balled his Gloved Fist as it Lit Up into Flames) And it'll be that mistake you do in your miserable life.
While the boys are busy glaring and threatening one another, their respective friends group begins to interact with one another as well.
Angel: ('Sigh') Ay dios mio.....Those two are never gonna get along, aren't that?
Kula: (Turns Away While Puffing her Own Cheeks) ('Hmph') No surprise there. You and pinhead are biggest jerks in the entire planet after all.
Angel: (Turns to Kula with a Pouty Look) Hey now. I'm way more nicer than my cookie is.
Kula: (Glares at Angel) Then why do keep making fun of me every time see each other!?
Angel: Cuz you're an easy target for me to mess with! (Forms a Teasing Smirk on her Face) And besides, I can't think of any other way to spent ny time here than to put a whiney, snot-nosed ice brat like you in your place.
Kula: (Fuming With Anger of her Own) GO AHEAD AND TRY IT THEN, YOU HUSSY! See if I won't freeze you solid if you do!
Kula begins to blow raspberries at the silver haired young haired who in return, snickers at the childish threat.
Rock: (Causally Talking to the King of Dinosaurs) Hey, how's life been treating you?
K.O.D: Rawr!
Rock: Huh. You don't say? How's that been going for her?
K.O.D: Rawr Raaawr Rarawwwr!
Rock: (Happily Nodded) Good, good. I'm glad Jenet and her crew aren't getting themselves in trouble for once. You think it'll last?
K.O.D.: (Shrugs) Rawr rawr.
Rock: ('Sigh') Yeah, I don't think it will either.....
Shingo: (Bows to Antonov with his Girlfriend, Leona, Standing Next to Him) We are so sorry for disturbing your time here, Mr. Antonov sir.
Leona: Had we known Krohnen would try and antagonize K', we would've never agreed to come here.
Antonov: (Smiles Brightly) Oh it's quite alright, you two. I'm just happy to see my boy Krohnen rekindle his long awaited rivalry with that friend of yours.
Shingo: (Smiles Sheepishly) Yeah......rivalry.....
Leona: (Rolls her Eyes) If you could call it that......
Misha: (Rusjes Over to the Trio) MR. SHINGOOOO! Sorry for wasting your time for at the moment, but....(Shows Shingo an Opened Book of Some Kind) Would you and Ms. Leona sign my Book for Fighters please?
Shingo: You....(Eyes Begins to Sparkle in Awe) Want my autograph?
Leona: And mines as well?
Antonov: (Chuckles Lightly Places his Hand onto Misha's Shoulder) Yes, our little Misha here has been a fan of you two for quite sometime now.
Misha: (Happily Nodded) Mmhmm. You guys are the coolest! (Turns to Leona) You're use your hands pierce through anything in a stealthy, flashy fashion while looking pretty.
Leona: (Blushes a Little) P-Pretty?....
Misha: (Turns to Shingo) And you always give it your all out there despite not having fire powers like that Kyo guy. Plus, you're really strong too! Not as powerfully strong as Mr. Antonov, of course, but you're definitely getting there!
Leona: (Smiles a Bit) Well, I suppose it would be rude of us to turn down a fan's request, don't you think, Shingo? (Turns to Shingo as She Hears the Sound of Sniffing) Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: (Already Has Tears in his Eyes) I-I-I...('Sniff') I have fans.....('Sniff') (Turns to Leona) Leona, I have fans now.....
Leona: (Happily Gives her Boyfriend a Hug) I know you do, darling. I'm very happy for you. (Turns to Antonov and Misha Woth a Sheepish Smile) Apologies. The emotions are getting the better of my boyfriend at the moment, so it'll might take us a bit of a while before we sign anything.
Misha: It's okay! I don't mind waiting.
Antonov: ('Sigh') I remember the day I first started to gain fans of my own.....(Eyes Begins to Water as Well) It was the best moment of privilege life!~ (Covers his Face Up While Crying)
Misha: (Pats on his Idol's Back to Help Calm Him Down) There there.
Meanwhile......
Mary and Ramon watches their respective groups' interactions with one another (Or more specifically, K', Kula, Krohnen, Angel's interactions) in the mid distance.
Mary: (Already Has a Deadpinned Look on her Face) Honestly. It hasn't even pass thirty minutes yet, and they're already at each other's throat.....
Ramon: ('Sigh') Can't say I'm surprised by the outcome really. I don't think I've ever seen a history more messy than those four.
Mary: (Shrugs) Eh. I've seen messier. (Turns to Ramon) So how are you following enjoying the wrestling limelight so far?
Ramon: (Smiles Brightly)I'm enjoying it quite well so far. I've met a lot of new faces: some friendly, some non sp friendly, and most of which are all so gorgeous looking~ (Let's Out a Flirtatious Purr)
Mary: (Playfully Rolls her Eyes) Of course they are....You still thinking about a certain redhead?
Ramon: Who? Vanessa? No, i haven't thought much about her as of late to tell you the truth
Mary: (Eyes Widened a Bit in Genuine Surprise) Wait, really? Not even a little bit.
Ramon: (Shrugs) Si, but not as much as i used to in the past. I have a sea of hermosos peces awaiting for my ferocious performance to worry about at the moment. And besides, isn't she still in cahoots with that King woman?
Mary: (Happily Nodded With an Excited Grin on her Face) Oh yeah, big time!~ Those two are a match made in heaven. (Searches For Something on her Phone) Vanessa been sending me pictures of her and Kingy as of late and look hella cute togethe-
Krohnen: (In the Distance) YOU BITCH!
'THUD'
Crowd: (Starts Chanting) Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Mary: .................They're fighting right now, aren't they?
Ramon: (Turns to See K and Krohnen Beating Each Other Up) To the surprise of no one unfortunately.
K': (Choking the Day Lights Out of Krohnen In the Distance) I'll show you who's a bitch, you insufferable defect!
Angel: (Slapping Hands With Kula) Quit breathing the same air as me, loser!
Kula: You quit breathing my air, you big fat meanie! ('Smack') Ow! You hit too hard!
Angel: Says the walking crybaby! ('Smack') Oi!
Rock: Mary, could you and Mr Ramon come over here before K' kill this guy?
Krohnen: Hell no! I ain't going down with a fight!
'Smack'
K': Argh! Damnit! That was my favorite pair of shades you just broke!
Krohnen: Goodie for you, dumbass!
K': You piece of shit, COME HERE! (Went Back to Choking Krohnen)
Mary: ('Sighs Heavily') We're coming, Rock! (Pinches her Nose in Annoyance) I finally have the day to relax here and they go on and start doing THIS crap.....
Ramon: (Shrugs Sheepishly) At....least they're not using their powers.....
Kula: THAT'S IT! I'M GONNA FREEZE YOU SOLID!
Angel: DO IT, EL MARICA!! SIN BOLAS!!
Mary: (Turns to Ramon) You were saying?
Ramon: My words are a blessing and a curse in disguise. Vamanos!
Ramon and Blue Nary quickly rushes over to the scene to stop the two former NESTS agents from fighting one another before everything escalates quickly.

Mini Fanfic #1178: Stroll Down the "Wedding" Lane #1: Shingo x Leona (King of Fighters)
*Heavily Inspired by the Group Date Cafe's: The Big Day Segment From Persona Q*
?????? In Unknown Area.......
THUD
Shingo: (Groans in a Bit of Pain Before Slowly Getting Himself Up From the Ground Him and Leona Has Just Now Fell On) Geez... That might've been the nastiest fall I've taken so far.....(Help his Girlfriend Up as Well) Are you okay, Leona-san?
Leona: (Simply Nodded as She Accepts Her Boyfriend's Help) I am, yes. (Looks Up at the Pitched Black Ceiling Above Her and Shingo) Though, I can't say i have the slightest clue as to why that "Soulmates Questionaire" we've participated brought us here....
Shingo: Probably to mess with us. I have seen a few pranks aired on game shows before. But definitely not to this extreme.....
Leona: (Turns to Shingo) ('Sigh') Well, either way, it's best that we stick close together in this, Shingo-Kun. There's no telling what they got in store for us now.
Shingo: (Nodded in Agreement) Right. But.....Where exactly are we anyw-
The sound of all the lights getting turned on one by one was loud enough to ring the couple's eardrums in surprise, causing Shingo to get startled and hug onto Leona's shoulder next to him, as they turn around to see the room reveals itself to have blue, aurora filled skies, flower filled field, a vine carrying a portrait from the ceiling, and a road with a few sets of heart shaped wooden tunnels going up ahead, while the sound of organs suddenly starts playing out of nowhere.
Tumblr media
Shingo: (Starts Looking Around the Place Along with Leona in Surprised and Confusion) What....the.....heck.......
Leona: Is this what the Questionaire has been leading us down to?
Mechanical Voice: It seems you have reached your destination.
Shingo gets startled once again by the mechanical sounding voice as he and Leona quickly positioned themselves in their battle stance, with the former shaking a little.
Leona: Who goes there!?
Shingi: S-Show yourself please! We won't fight you if you do! Hopefully.
Leona: (Simply Nodded) That's right. (Forms a Bit of a Menacing Glare on her Face) Unless you try and hurt Shingo-Kun.
Shingo: (Heart Starts to Melt a Bit by Leona's Protectiveness Over Him Before Firing Up and Hardening Up his Fighting Stance as He Develops Protectiveness of his Own) Or if you try and hurt MY girlfriend too! So try it, bucko! I throwdown with robots before! I DON'T GIVE A FUCK!!!
Leona: (Gasps at Her Boyfriend's Sudden Use of Outburst and Profanity) Shingo-Kun!
Shingo: (Lowers His Pent Up Anger into an Awkward Look) Sorry.....I was overselling that, was I?
Leona: A little bit, yeah. Just leave the Intimidation tactic to me for now on, okay darling?
Shingo: ('Sigh') Yes, ma'am.
Mechanical Voice: Please excuse my sudden intrusion. But I believe that this is a path where two lovers who met their destined partners discuss their love for each other. What could be waiting up ahead?
Shingo: That's what I wanna find out......
Mechanical Voice: The only way to find is step forth, hand-in-hand and embrace what this road will have in store for you up ahead. Now, please step forth.
Shingo: Is this really our only option here?
Leona: (Starts Looking Around the Area) Considering there's not a single exit present here, I'm afraid it may be the case. It's best that we do what it says for now and keep moving ahead.
Shingo: 'Kay. But uh.....(Turns Away While Rubbing The Back of his Head Back and Forth) You....wanna hold hands along the way? Y-You know! Just in case we get lost or....something crazy happens.....
Leona: (Giggles Softly as She Gently Grab Hold of her Boyfriend's Hand, Making him Blush Instantly) Shingo-Kun, you are always welcome to hold my hand whenever you like~ We're dating, remember?~
Shingo: I know. I was just......Being a gentleman is all.
Leona: And I appericate very much, my dear~ (Kiss the Top of Shingo's Hand) Now, come. Let's get this charade over with and find our friends so we can head home and cuddle for the rest of evening. Sounds good?
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Perfect! Let's go!
The couple finally does what the voice says and take a few steps forward before it came back and speak again.
Mechanical Voice: Suddenly, all in attendance hear an announcement.
Shingo: (Raises an Eyebrow in Confusion) An announcement?
Leona: (Raises an Eyebrow in Suspension) Of what exactly?
Mechanical Voice: Up ahead, they see a bride and groom's joyous commemorative photograph of their undying love and passion for one another.
Leona: Bride and groom?
Shingo: I think it's talking about that picture over there.
Leona: (Squints her Eyes at the Portait Shingo's Pointing her To) Is that right? (Makes her Over to the Portrait Along with Shingo) I wonder it's doing in a place- (Eyes Slowly Starts to Widened at What is In Front of Her and Shingo) Like.......This?
Shingo: Oh.....my god.......
The surprised looks duo's faces are present as they see a portrait of Leona dressed in a black tux like dress, carrying Shingo in his arms, who is dressed in a white wedding dress.
Shingo: WE GOT HATCHED!? HOW!? WHEN!? I-I don't remember doing any sort of proposal!! I DON'T EVEN HAVE A RING ON ME TO GIVE!!!
As Shingo continues to ramble on while walking and pacing back and forth, Leona suddenly starts to notice something was off about the portrait itself as she starts taking a closer look.
Leona: Hm. As I expected. (Turns Back to her Boyfriend) Shingo-Kun, I-
Shingo: This is insane! I mean, I know I dreamed about getting married one day, but now!? I'm not even close to being prepared a wedding!
Leona: Shingo.
Shingo: Oh God, and what will everyone in our circle will say?
Leona: Shingooo.
Shingo: I mean, our friends will be happy for us regardless, but what about our families!? My mom is gonna KILL ME to kingdom come, I'm never gonna hear the end of it from neither of my sisters, and only God and OROCHI knows what the Colonel's gonna do to me once he FINDS OUT-
Leona: (Places her Habd onto Shingo's Shoulder) Shingo! Calm down for a second, okay? The portrait of us is fabricated and fake. (Shows Shingo the Portrait) See?
Shingo does as his girlfriend says and takes a more thorough look at the portait, realizing how off it really looks.
Shingo: You're right......This looks completely photoshopped and everything. (Eyes Widened Again) Wait, so why did they put me in a dress then!?
Leona: As a little joke maybe? Not that I mind really. (Smiles a Little) I think you look wonderful in that dress. (Playfully Smirks) Almost like a princess in a way~
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) I doubt it. But thanks. I think you could pull off that dress way better than I ever could. Then again, you would look pretty great tux too.
Lrona: (Grabs her Chin) You think so? I'm not sure I could pull the attire off honestly....Speaking of which, why does this have me carrying you to begin with?
Shingo: Probably because they think of you as the Strongest Lady in the World. (Forms A Bit of a Seductive Smirk on his Face) I like do~
Leona: (Giggles Once More While Blushing) Honestly, Shingo-Kun!~ Are you trying to constantly flatter me?~
Shingo: (Playfully Shrugs) Eh. It is Valentine's Day. Gotta make sure my girlfriend feel loved and appreciated somehow.
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness) You're so sweet~ But Shingo-Kun.
Shingo: Hm?
Leona: (Starts Twisting the Side of her Hair a Bit Bashfully) I-If you don't mind, could you.....carry me in your arms for a bit? I wanna see how much your muscles has improved as of late. (Smiles a Bit) As....well as see how strong my sweetheart of a boyfriend truly is~
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Carry me first and you got yourself a deal.
Leona nodded in agreement as she picks Shingo up off his feet at ease, leaving him struck in awe.
Shingo: Wooooah.....See? (Happily Hugs Leona) I told you that you're The Strongest!~ (Pulls Away For a Bit) I'm not too heavy for you, am I?
Leona: Not at all. It's like carrying a couple of grapes around, you're fine.
Shingo then carries Leona shortly after.
Shingo: Gotcha! (Starts Wobbling a Bit Before Catching his Balance Completely)
Leona: (Giggles Some More) Goodness~ You really have improved a lot.
Shingo: Only cause I have the best teacher abd prettiest training/sparring partner in the world~ i don't think I would ever get this far if it weren't for you.
Leona: (Smiles Softly) I'm glad to be of assistance. (Gives Shingo a Kiss on the Cheek) (My sweet prince~) (Suddenly Notices Something Up Ahead) Shingo, look! (Points Shingo Towards that White Door Ahead)
Shingo: (Eyes Starts Widening at What Leona's Pointing Him To) No way! The door! Is this the exit we're looking for this whole time?
Leona: Only one way to find out
Shingo nodded in agreement as he gently puts Leona back down on his feet before the two started sprinting over to the door in question.
Mechanical Voice: The long-awaited moment has finally come. The bride and groom are finally about to enter. The final moment of hesitation has arrived before you are about to be wed.
Shingo: Bride?
Leona: Groom?
Shingo/Leona: (Eyes Widened at the Realization) BE WED!?
Shingo: So that Questionaire we took and this entire room has been setting us for a WEDDING this whole time!?
Leona: (Grabs her Chin Again) That would explain the portrait had us wearing marriage attires.....
The Mechanical: Through your own free will, you decide to vow eternal love to one another.
Shingo: (Starts Getting Angry at the Invisible Mechanical Voice) What free will!? You practically brought us here to begin with!!!
Leona: (Gently Place her Hand onto Shingo's Shoulder Again) Calm yourself, darling. I'm sure if we open these doors, it'll reveal itself to be the exit-
The doors automatically opens itself up, revealing a bright, breath-taking altar with the sound of organs playing "Here Comes the Bride" throughout the entire room itself, much to couple's surprise.
Leona: Or.....not.
Mechanical Voice: You must vow your unwavering love one another, in sickness and in health. Now, vow your newloly found love!
Shingo: (Couldn't Believe What is Happening Right Now) My god. They're actually making us get married right now......
Leona: Well....If this really is the only option to go by....(Let's Out a Sigh) Then we might as well fave the music head on.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened Before Turning to Leona) Are you sure about this, Leona-san? I don't want this to ruin your military career. (Turns Away While Frowning) Or.... have me slow you down completely........
Leona: (Gently Brings Shingo's Face Towards Her While Softly Glaring at Him) Shingo Yabuki, don't you ever say that again! You could never slow me down. Not in a million years.
Shingo: But what about your job at the Ikari Warriors?
Leona: I can balance my occupation as a soldier and being a wife the best i can. Besides, if there's anyone I'd be happy or rather glad to be married wirh by forced.......(Smiles Softly at Shingo) It's you.
Shingo: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness Again) Me too~ I mean, I want to get out of here as much as you do, but.....(Gently Grab Hold of Leona's Hands, Staring at Her Woth Sincere Love in his Eyes) If this wedding thing is really happening and if we're gonna spend the rest of our lives as married couple, then I'm more than ready to face it head on with you, Leona Heidern.
Leona: (Heart Starts Melting as Well as A Single Tear Starts Falling Down on her Face) As do I, my lov-
'DOOR KICK'
????: STOP THE WEDDINGGGGGGGGGGGGG!~
Shingo and Leona's eyes begin to widen up yet again at the very familiar face responsible for yelling.
Shingo/Leona: Kula!?
Rock: (Quickly Steps into the Room Along with Blue Mary With Very Relieved Looks on Both Their Faces) Shingo! Leona! Thank God, you two are okay.
Mary: You will not BELIEVE how many stairs we have to go down to find you two!
K': (Walks into the Room While Panting a Bit) Yet.....Far....too many.....stairs......(Let's Out an Exhausted Sigh While Wiping the Sweat Off his Forehead) I swear, this HAS to be the last time we get wrapped up in the crap, right? Please let it be the last time.
Rock: (Snickers a Bit) Wow, K', I didn't take you for the guy who gets tired out that easily.
K': (Glares at Rock) Well, maybe if we didn't highball our asses all the way down here, I wouldn't be like this, now would I? How the hell neither of you are not weak in the knees yet?
Rock: Cuz unlike you, Mary and I actually took the day of our regular schedules to work out.
Mary: (Happily Nodded) Yep! Never skipped workout day!~
K': ('Tch') Whatever. (Turns to Kula) What's your excuse?
Kula: (Place a Finger on her Chin While Thinking) Uhhhhhh.....My love and care Shingo and Leona brought me here? (Smiles Brightly)
K': Bullshit.
Kula: (Comically Glares at K') It's not!
Leona: (Giggles Softly at K and Kula's Usual Banters) We love you too, Kula.
Shingo: (Very Happy To See his Friends Again) You guys seriously came all the way down here on foot? We didn't even see any staircases around this place.
Rock: That's because it was alllllllll the way over there. (Points Shingo and Leona Towards the Staircase Located in Far, Far, Far Distance From the Altar) It's a miracle we have Kula use her breezey wind to help keep us cooled off before running down here.
Mary: Luckily, before we did all of that, we also managed to catch the crooks who's been operating this entire "Romantic Love Show" as one of their many get-real quick schemes. (Points to the Three Men Tied and Taped Up Together, Whimpering)
Shingo: So.....this whole wedding thing is fake after all?
Leona: As in....really, really fake.
Rock: Yep. It's been a sham this entire time. Kinda easy to tell really.
K': As if either of you would fall for something like that in the first place.
Shingo and Leona immediately starts blushing while looking away from the others.
K': (Eyes Widened in the Realization as He Lowers his Shade Down From his Face) Oh my God, you two actually this was all real, wasn't it?
Shingo: (Immediately Glares at K' Along with Leona) NO!
Leona: Of course not! We knew it was fake this whole time!
Shingo: Honest!!!
Rock: (Playfully Raises an Eyebrow) You sure? Cuz you two seemed pretty ready to get hitched once we got here.
Kula: (Smiles Brightly While Clasping her Habds Together) You two would make the most cutest married couple in all of Southtown!~
Mary: (Crosses her Arms While Giving the Duo A Soft Motherly Glare) Yeah and youngest one at that. Look, we know you guys love each other very much and we're happy for you 100%, but please wait until you're little bit more older to make these kinds of decisions, okay?
Shingo/Leona: ('Sigh') Yes, ma'am.....
Mary: (Simply Nodded) Good. Now, if you kids will excuse me, I'm gonna call my workplace and ask them to bring a helicopter or a jet over to get us outta here. (Walks Out of the Room with her Phone in her Hands) I am not going back to those stairs with those crooks in my care........
Shingo and Leona watches Mary walk out before letting out biggest sigh of relief they've ever made in their lives.
Rock: (Chuckles Lightly) Long day, wasn't it?
Shingo: You have no idea......
Leona: As eventful as this day was, I'm glad it's coming to a close.
Shingi: Not quite. (Forms a Bit of a Seductive Smirk on his Face to Leona) We still have a scheduled cuddle session to do once we get back home, remember?~
Leona: (Giggles Once More) Yes, of course~ (Gives Shingo a Kss on the Lips) Happy Valentine's Day, Shingo-Kun~
Shingo: You too, Leona-san~
K': Hey, save that kissing once we get back home, future married couple.
Shingo/Leona: (Comically Glares at K'Dash).OH MY GOD, SHUT UP ALREADY!!!
Happy Valentine's/Single Awareness Day Everybody!!!

Mini Fanfic #1168: Comforting With One Another (King of Fighters)
1:46 a.m. at Yabuki's Apartment's Living Room......
It was a dark, clear night in the streets of South Town where almost everyone are at their homes fast asleep for the rest of the evening.
Whereas our two lovebirds, Shingo Yabuki and Leona Heidern, are sitting down on the sofa together holding onto their mugs of hot coco after waking up from their respective nightmares.
Shingo: (Takes a Sip of his Drink Before His Eyes Begins to Sparkle in Awe) My god...... (Takes Another Sip of Coco with a Bright Smile on his Face) This has to be the best cup of coco I've ever tasted! I don't even think mom could ever top something THIS amazing no matter how hard she try!....D-Don't tell her I say that once we see her again, 'Kay? (Chuckles a Bit Awkwardly)
Leona: (Giggles Softly While Playfully Rolling her Eyes) I won't say anything, I promise. And I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Seriah used to make me mug whenever I stayed up late in this hour, until she taught me how to make on myself. (Uses her Plastic Sppon to Whirl her Coco Around a Bit) It's not perfect in comparison, but it does help calm my nerves from time to time. (Takes a Sip of her Drink)
Shingo: (Takes Another Sip Before Nodding in Agreement) Yeah.....I think it's helping my nerves a bit too, Leona-san. Which is great, cause I.....(Takes a Very Deep Breath Before Frowning) Really don't feel like going back to sleep anytime soon......
Leona: (Frowns as Well While Laying her Side of her Head onto Her Boyfriend's Shoulder Next to Her) Me neither. I can't remember the last time I had a nightmare this bothersome.
Shingo: Same.
Shingo/Leona: (Turns to One Another) What was your nightmare about? Oh! Sorry. You first. Please, I insist. (Stare at Each Other For a Brief Second Before Giggling a Bit)
Shingo: (Rubs the Back of his Head Back and Forth) We're both a real mess tonight, aren't we?
Leona: More or less. I can tell mines first if you want.
Shingo: Sure. Take as much time as you need to prepare yourself, okay?
Leona: (Happily Nodded) I will. Thank you. (Takes a Deep Breath Before Frowning and Speaking) My dream.....It....mostly involves my Orochi side.
Shingo: (Frowns in Worry) And....how you lost control?
Leona: For the most part, yes. (Puts Her Mug Down on the Coffee Table In Front of Her) It's not nearly as horrific as the previous dreams I had in the past, but.......('Sigh') It still managed to find it's way into terrify me when I least expected....
Shingo: I see......(Eyes Suddenly Begins to Widened at the Realization) Wait. You said that you and the Colonel have been doing those special training sessions together that help keep it under check, right? How's that been going along, i-if you don't mind me asking.
Leona: It's been going along smoothly for the most part thankfully. It wasn't without It's challenges mind you, but it still helped me out a lot since then. It made me feel more calm and....more in control than I ever was since then.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) That's great! You're making progress and I couldn't any prouder.
Leona: (Snickering a Bit) You sound almost exactly like my father whenever I give him status report.
Shingo: (Starts Snickering as Well) Me? Sounding like the great Colonel Heidern? I don't believe it~
Leona: (Giggles Softly) It's true!~ In private whenever no one was around the area, he would always brag and tell me how proud he is of me and how far I've come to get to where I am now.
Shingo: As he should be! Any parent would be proud of the progress their offsprings would make. (Gently Grabs Hold of his Girlfriend's Habds) And look, I know how scary and stressful this Orochi fiasco gets overtime, but keep doing what you do best in your training. I know what you have it takes to overcome what him and his followers would have thrown on you. Because what your name is?
Leona: (Stares at Shingo in a Brief Second Before Giving him a Determined Smile on her Face and Salutes to Him) Leona Heidern, the first woman in the Ikari Warriors, daughter of Colonel Heidern......(Forms a Bit of a Flirty Smirk on her Face) And the woman you've fallen over heels for~
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) You God darn right! You're amazing, Leona-san, and I believe in you 150% percent, always! (Gives Leona a Thumbs Up While Grinning)
Leona: (Giggles Some More) Thank you, darling!~ It means so much hearing this from you. (Gives Shingo a Kiss on the Cheek) But I'm afraid we're not done here, are we?
Shingo: ('Sighs a Bit in Defeat') No....Not even close.
Leona: (Gently Place her Habd on Top of Shingo's) You know you don't have to tell me if you don't feel comfortable enough in doing so, right?
Shingo: (Gives Leona a Bit of a Reassuring Smile on his Face) Yeah, but you were brave enough to tell me yours. It's only fair if I return the favor, you know?
Leona: Take as much time as you need to tell me. I won't go anywhere.
Shingo: (Happily Nodded) Yeah. (Takes a Very Deep Breath Himself Before Speaking Again) Okay! So......I'm....certain you've......remember the time i....accidently blurted out the time I.....almost died trying to protect Kyo from a Wild, Orochi Controlled Iori after 11th KOF Tournament ended....
Leona: (Simply Nodded) I remembered, yes. And it still worries me to no end.
Shingo: ('Sighs Heavily') Yeah, I figured you say that....But that was the dream I had tonight. Only this time.....No one was there to save us.....I wasn't strong enough to protect Kyo......or to fulfil Chizuru-Senpai's promise.........(Tears Starts Falling Down From his Eyes).....And I....('Sniff') wasn't able to see my mom and sisters again on that night.......
Leona: (Starts Getting Worried) Shingo.......
Shingo: And..... ('Sniff') I know. I know it's dumb of me to keep thinking about that now that I'm.....still alive and breathing....And I'm pretty sure Kyo has already gotten over it a long time ago, but.....('Sniff') I-I don't know! I....('Sniff') Just.... the thought of the possibilities of us not being so lucky at all kept scaring me nonstop!
Leona: It's....starting to get too much for you, isn't it?
Shingo: ('Sighs Heavily') Pretty much, yeah. (Starts Wiping the Tears Away) ('Sniff') Pretty dumb, am I right?
Leona: (Gently Grabs Hold of Shingo's Hand) No it isn't. Believe me, I know what it's like to have past trauma trying to weigh you down at your very lowest at times. But you can't let it take toll out of you forever.
Shingo: (Takes Another Deep Breath as He Starts Calming Himself Down) Yeah....You're right. I still have my whole life ahead of me to look forward to right now. ('Sigh') I just wish it wasn't too.....complicated, you know?
Leona: It's never gets easier down the line, but never lose hope. (Gives Shingo a Reassuring Smile on her Face) I know you have what it takes to overcome it completely one day. And I'll be more than happy to help out and support you every step of the way.
Shingo: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness as He Hugs his Girlfriend Lovingly) You really are too good to me~
Leona: (Starts Pouting at her Boyfriend a Little) Don't say that. You know as well as I do that you've brought just as much happiness to me the moment we started becoming friends.
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) I know, I know, I was only kidding. I am really thankful for you making me feel a lot better though.
Leona: (Smiles Softly as She Hugs Shingo Back) Likewise. You're a truly wonderful person, Shingo-Kun and Ihpile I could aspire to become more open and strong willed as you are as I grow another year older today.
Shingo: I'm sure you'll- Wait, another year older today?
Leona: Well, it's technically my birthday today given it's midnight.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) You're BIRTHDAY IS TODAY!? I didn't know that!!
Leona: (Smiles Sheepishly) That's....probably because I've never gotten the chance to tell you until now. My apologies
Shingo: ('Sigh') No. It's my fault for not asking you about it a lot sooner. Now I got a lot planning to do........
Leona: (Starts Yawning a Bit) Let's worry about that when the sun raises back up. I'm sure we'll have plenty to do by then.
Shingo: (Yawns as Well) Definitely. But I'm definitely gonna buy you gift while we're at it.
Leona: Only if you promise not to buy me something too expensive.
Shingo: I'll try. I love you.
Leona: (Kiss the Top of Shingo's Head) I love you too~ Thank you so much.
Happy Birthday, Leona Heidern

Mini Fanfic #1081: A Surprise of the Making (King of Fighters)
8:56 p.m. Outside of Chizuru's Apartment............
Shingo: (Walking Down the Halls While Talking on the Phone) Are you sure that mission of your tonight isn't going to be too dangerous? (Eyes Widened a Bit in Fear) Or life threatening?
Leona: (On the Other Line) We're only making a simple delivery, Shingo-Kun, it's fine. Besides, do you knpw that I've managed to complete and survive throughmany dangerous missions in the past before, right?
Shingo: I do! I just.....(Looks Away While Blushing and Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) I couldn't help but to worry about you sometimes, you know?
Leona: (Smiles Softly) You have nothing to worry about, Shingo-Kun-H-HEY!
Shingo: (Starts Getting Worried) Leona!?
????: Hey there, champ!
Shingo: WHAT DID YOU DO TO- Wait. Is that you Mr. Jones?
Ralf: (Lets Out a Heartdy Laugh on the Other Side) The one and only! Just wanna chime in to 'Hi' and reassure you that your Leona-san here is already in good hands!
Leona: Major, give me my phone back right now!!
Ralf: In a minute, Leona, I'm just about done here.
Shingo: ('Sighs in Relief') Well, if you really say so, then I guess I have nothing worry about then....
Ralf: (Smiles Brightly) Exactly! Oh and also, this may or may not be super important, but our colonial here says he wants to see ya in the next two months.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened Again As He Hears the Sound of Glass Shattering in his Self Conscious) C-Coloniel?......Two months?......
Ralf: Yep! He said he wanted to meet you a lot sooner than that, but ya know? Duty calls as always, ya know? ('Heh') But uh yeah. Get yourself prepared by then and best of luck to ya, kid. You are gonna need it. (Chuckles Lightly)
Leona: Ralf. Phone. NOW.
'SMACK'
Ralf: AUGH!....(Winces in Pain on the Other Line) Ah god....
Leona: (Resumes her Conversation With Her Boyfriend on the Phone) I am so sorry about that! The Major hasn't told you anything too embarrassing, did he?
Shingo: (Immediately Comes Back to Reality) Oh! N-No, no it's nothing like that at all! He just wanted to say 'Hi' and stuff....On an unrelated note, but.... is it...possibly true that the colonel is expecting to see me in the next two months?
Leona: (Yells at Ralf Some More on the Other Line) You told him that!?
Ralf: Blame your dad, I'm just the messenger here!!
Clark: Would you two keep down? I'm driving here!
Leona: ('Sigh') Sorry, Major Steels. (Resumes Back to her Call) It's true. My father has requested to see you for some time now. But I don't want you to worry about that right now, okay? (Smiles Softly Again) You should relax and enjoying your night with Kyo and Ms. Kagura-san.
Shingo: (Takes a Deep Breath Before Speaking) Yeah, I'll try. (Smiles Softly) I'm gonna miss you all night though.
Leona: I'm missing you already. But I'll be sure call you first thing in the morning. (Puts on a Bit of a Seductive Smirk on her Face) Be sure to expect a lot hugs and kisses when I get back~
Ralf: (Starts Smirking Teasingly) Ahh~ Is that flirting I see?
'SMACK'
Ralf: OW!
Clark: You were asking for that one.
Ralf: SHADDUP!
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) I can't wait already! I love you~
Leona: I love you too, Shingo-Kun~ So much~ Have a very good rest of the night, okay?
Shingo: You too. Bye. (Ends his Call Before Looking Up at his Reached Destination and Nodded) ('Hmph') Right on time. (Knocks om the Door Three Times) Shingo Yabuki's here!
Kyo: (Inside in the Room) Door's open!
Shingo: 'Kay! (Happily Opens the Door) Who's ready for Anime Binging Nig-
Shingo eyes starts to widened once again as he sees Kyo sitting forward on Chizuru's lap staring at the boy, and ooking as if they were about to kiss at any moment with one or two kiss marks is already imprinted on both sides of Kyo's face.
Shingo: ....................Wrong room. (Closes the Door Before Quickly Sprinting Away) Elevatorelevatorelelevatorelevatorelelevator ElevaTOR-
Shingo abruptly stops moving once he hears the door opens few feets behind him
Chizuru: Shingo-Kun wait! Please don't go!
Shingo: Uh.....(Does a Surfer Like Accent) Like, who is this Shingo dude you're talkin' to? This is uh.....Bud. Bud....Peterson at your service.
Kyo: (Puts on a Deadpinned Look on his Face) Shingo, we know it's you.
Shingo: Again, bruh, I don't know whatcha talkin about! (Let's Out an Awkward Chuckle) I clearly said the name's Pete.
Kyo: Didn't you just say it was Bud?
Shingo: (Immediately Starts Sweating Bullets) Uh....Yeah, but.....but like.....Some people call me Pete sometimes and....(Chuckles Awkwardly) You know how neighborhood gets sometimes when it comes to nicknames-
Chizuru: Shingo, this us getting ridiculous. Let's go back inside and talk about this.
Shingo: (Slightly Turns his Head Around) But-
Chizuru: (Puts on the Old Fashioned Sad Puppy Dog Look) Please?~
Shingo: (Stares at Chizuru's Eyes For a Brief Second Before Finally Sighing in Defeat) Okayyyy......Let's go.
Few Seconds Later Inside of Chizuru's Apartment.....
Shingo: (Sitting on the Middle Side of the Sofa Twiddling his Fingers a Bit) So, you guys are.....a thing now?
Kyo: (Proudly Nodded) Yep.
Chizuru: (Smiles Softly) We've actually been a thing for quite a while now.
Shingo: Oh really? Fir how long?
Kyo: A half a year, give her take.
Shingo: Huh. B-But wait. How did this all started and.....Whatever happened to you and Yuki-san, i-if you don't mind me asking.
Kyo: (Shrugs) We broke up a while after the 15th KOF tournament ended. We wanted a lot different things, so it didn't work out in the end. A few weeks after that trainwreck later, I bumped into Chizuru again, talked and hangout a lot more than we usually did when we were a team until we started catching feelings for one another.
Chizuru: It took us a while to get used to one another, but it wasn't long until we eventually started to let our feelings run it's course thanks to a lot understanding and communication. And it was here and there that we started to truly love each other. (Hugs Kyo's Arm) Just the three of us~
Shingo: Awwwww~ (Raises an Eyebrow in Confusion) Wait. Three of us?
Kyo: Oh yeah, I forgot to tell ya. We're in a three way relationship.
Shingo: With who?
'Door Opens'
????: I'm heading out.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened Yet Again) That voice.....D-Don't tell me......
Shingo slowly turns around to see a man with short red hair walking out of the bedroom wearing red pants, a black leather, and holding a guitar case in his hand. The redhead in question was none other than Kyo's "eternal rival"....
Shingo: IORI YAGAMI!?
Iori: (Turns to Shingo as He Gives him a Simple Nod) Yabuki. (Turns to His Two Lovers Beside Him) I take it you three are getting started on that Anime Binge Watching Night or whatever?
Kyo: Yep. We're just filling the poor kid in our relationship is all.
Iori: (Looks Back at Shingo's Very Surprised Look) I see.
Chizuru Do you have everything you need for your band session tonight?
Iori: Everything's right here in this case.
Chizuru: Good. Now, make sure you call us if you need anything, okay? (Gives Iori a Peck on the Lips) We love you~
Iori: Love the both of you back. Keep Kyo out of trouble.
Kyo: (Smirks at Iori) Only if you stay of one yourself, edge boy.
Iori: Fuck you.
The two rivals share a short kiss together before Iori starts walking towards the door, causing Shingo's jaw to drop even more.
Iori: (Opens the Door) Have a good night or whatever.
Chizuru: (Happily Waves Goodbye to Iori) You too, dear~
Kyo: See ya.
'Door Closed'
Kyo: Annnnnnnnnd cue the loud, surprised yelling in 3. 2. 1.
Shingo: YOU TWO ARE DATING IORI YAGAMI!!?
Kyo: (Snickers a Bit) What? You couldn't tell by the smooch fest a few seconds ago?
Shingo: (Glares at Kyo) I COULD TELL JUST FINE, THANKS! I thought you two hated each other!
Kyo: Yeah, we still do.
Shingo: THEN WHY ARE YOU DATING HIM!?
Kyo: (Shrugs) Because I love him?
Shingo: THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE A LICK OF SENSE!
Chizuru: Shingo! Calm down. Remember our breathing exercise.
Shingo: BUT-
Chizuru: Do it now, mister.
Kyo: (Raises an Eyebrow in Confusion) You guys do exercises together?
Chizuru: Only with yoga, meditation, and breathing. It helps calm his nerves.
Kyo: (Snickers a Bit) Damn. Are you his mom or something
Chizuru: Yes, now move aside. (Walks Over to Shingo and Help Him Take Deep Breaths) Now breathe in......
Shingo: (Dies What his Senpai Says and Breathes In)
Chizuru: .....And breathe out.
Shingo: (Exhales)
Chizuru: Okay, one more time. In.....
Shingo: (Takes One More Deep Breath)
Chizuru: ......And out.
Shingo: (Exhales One Final Time)
Chizuru: There you go. Are you feeling calm now?
Shingo: ('Sigh') I am. So you and Kyo are....dating Iori altogether now, huh?
Chizuru: (Simply Nodded) That's right. I know it may seem hard to believe given our.... less than friendly history together.
Kyo: And his track record of being a dick.
Chizuru: (Sighs While Rolling her Eyes) Yes, that too. And I don't condone any of previous actions, especially what he did to you in the past.
Shingo: (Frowns in Silence)
Chizuru: But deep down, we know there's a whole lot more to him than he wants you to believe. (Places her Hands on her Chest) And there is no doubt in my mind that he loves us just as much as we love him.
Kyo: (Smiles Sincerely) He is our mopy jackass after all.
Chizuru: (Pouts at her Boyfriend) He's not a jackass, Kyo. He's more of a mopy kitten if anything.
Kyo: ('Scoffs') Yeah right. He wishes he was cute as a cat.
Shingo watches as two of the Three Sacred Treasures playfully bickers at one another over their significant third half. They seem to really fond of him all things considered. And while the fighter in training may not like or trust Yagami himself, it's....kinda nice to see him found two people he could love and cherish for the rest of his days despite everything. But to make sure the fondness between these three doesn't deceive him completely......
Shingo: H-Hey.
Kyo: (Gives his Attention to Shingo Along With Chizuru) Hm?
Chizuru: Yes, Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: I.....(Rubs The Back of his Head Back and Forth) Don't wanna pry on your relationship too much, but......(Turns Back to the Duo With a Genuine, Serious Look on his Face) Has he been treating you two right? Like, at all?
Kyo: What are you, our dad?
Shingo: (Comicallly Glares at Kyo) Just answer the question already!
Kyo: Alright, alright. If you must, then yes. Iori has been treating us good. Even if he is a emo prick.
Chizuru: He's still a bit rough around the edges. (Smiles Softly) But I can assure you that he's just as much of a sweetheart as you are.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened a Bit) Wait. Really? Compared to me?
Chizuru: (Giggles Softly) Of course~ I can't think of anyone else sweeter than you, dear.
Shingo: Awwwwww- I-I mean! (Clears His Throat) Okay....Okay. If that's the case, then I guess I have nothing to worry about.
Kyo: Finally got your appeal, dad?
Shingo: (Comically Glares at Kyo Again) Stop calling me that! ('Sigh') But yeah. I'm fine with you guys dating him. Sorry for making this a huge deal out of it....
Chizuru: (Smiles Softly) Don't worry about it. You were out of the loop of this topic for a while now that you were bound to find out eventually.
Kyo: True. (Starts Smirking Again) But now that you know about our little secret......(Place his Arm Around Shingo's Shoulder) It's about high time you tell us how you managed to go out with Heidern's little princess.
Shingo Oh God, who told you- (Turns to See Chizuru Excitedly Smiling At Him Before Sigh) Never mind.....
Chizuru: (Happily Joins in on the Shingo Huh) Shingo-Kun!~ You still haven't shared me the details during that time. I wanna know!~
Shingo: Okay, okay, I'll tell you. But can we please get something to eat first? I'm starving here!
Kyo: Me too actually.
Chizuru: ('Sigh') Alright. I'll order us pizza. (Points at Shingo With a Pout on her Face) But you still owe me an explanation, mister.
Kyo: That goes double from me too.
Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes) I'm aware.....
Happy Birthday, Shingo Yabuki !!

Mini Fanfic #1076: Another Star Stealing Attempt (King of Fighters)
3:45 p.m. at the Bogard's Residence's Living Room.......
Shingo: (Okay, Shingo, this is it. You've reached Boo, that River Raiders minigane gave me just the amount coins I needed and then some, despite how slow and....slightly one-sided that experience was, now it's time for me put my final piece of the plan in motion and steal me a Star! Now granted, as a reminder, you are up against two out of three of your best friends who are stronger and elmentally more talented than you and your girlfriend whom you love and cherish each and everyday of your mundane life. Doesn't change the fact that you still have five or four more turns left in this board and-)
Shingo continues mumbling and thinking a tad bit out loud about his current plans while the others stares at him.
Rock: He....do realize we can still hear him, right?
K': (Shrugs) He might as well be at this point. He knows he ain't slick.
Kula: Yeah. (Smiles Brightly at Shingo Beside Her) But he's looks cute when he over analyzes everything.
Leona: (Smiles at Shingo as Well on her Side of the Sofa) I agree. It's nice to see him get himself so deep into his thoughts every once in a while.
K': For you two maybe. (A Small Smirk Starts Appearing on his Face) All I see is a perfect opportunity to fuck with him.
Rock: (Gives K' a Deadpinned Look on his Face) No surprise there.
Kula: (Pouts at K') Once a jerkface, always a jerkface!
K': Hey. (Tilts his Finger at Rock) I'm only a jerkface because about all of you fifty percent of the time. And cuz it's funny. Now, help me find the loudest air horn apps on your phones.
Leona: (Glares at K') How about I bring Shingo back to his senses instead? The last thing he needs is another stress endeuce panic attack from YOU of all people....
K': How many times I have to apologize for that crap?
Leona: (Crosses her Arms) You can apologize all you want. Doesn't change the fact that I'm still peeved at you for what happened that morning. Now if you'll excuse me.....(Gently Place and Rubs onto Her Boyfriend's Arm Right Beside Her) Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: (Immediately Gets Startled by the Touch) I'M NOT PLANNING ANYTHING! YOU ARE!! (Quickly Starts Coming Back to his Senses as He Starts Looking Back and Forth at the Room) Wait- Huh? What happened?
Leona: (Smiles Softly at Shingo) Nothing much. We were just making sure you're okay is all.
Rock: And making sure K' doesn't try jumpscaring you with the air horns.
Shingo: (Glares at K') You were going to jumpscare me? Jerk.
K': (Rolls his Eyes) Yeah, yeah. I'm a dick ir whatever. Now are you gonna choose whose Star you're stealing from or what? (Glares at Shingo Menacingly) And you better not pick me this time.......
Kula: (Already in Tears) ('Sniff') And ME!!!~
Shingo: (Facepalms Himself While Sighing) Oh Goddamnit....This again?
Kula: NO SWEARING!
Shingo: IT SLIPPED OUT OF MY, OKAY!? I'M SORRY!
K': You better be.
Shingo: (Points and Glares Back K' in a Comical Sense) AND WHEN ARE YOU EVER GOING TO STOP GLARING ME LIKE THAT, HUH!?
K': I dunno. Are you planning on stealing my Star?
Shingo: I-I don't know!.....(Looks Away While Shyly Twiddling his Fingers Together) Maybe.....
K': (Went Back to Glaring Shingo Menacingly) Then your request is denied.
Shingo: (Immediately Turns Back to K') WHAT THE HELL!? I SAID "MAYBE", NOT "YES"!
K': Yeah. But you sure as hell didn't say "no" either.
Kula: STOP. SWEARING!!!
Leona: (Watches the Trio Banter Towards One Another With a Slightly Confused Look on her Face) What.....Is even happening right now?
Rock: (Walks Towards Behind her Side of the Sofa) Peer Pressure at it's finest. This always happens whenever Shingo goes to Boo to steal a Star. K' would threaten him yhat he'll kick his ass, while Kula would assume that he doesn't love her as much. And more times than not, it would usually ends with mines being taken. Not that I minded all that much. I rather him or Kula take it than K' anyday of the week.
Leona: Agreed. I just wish he would take Shingo-Kun more seriously than he does messing with him. Especially when he's able to created sparks from his fists.
Rock: (Turns to Leona) Sparks?
Leona: (Eyes Widened at the Sudden Realization) Oh! (Takes her Phone Out From her Phone and Search For the Picture She Was Looking For) I forgot to tell you and others about this earlier, but one time during our recent workout sessions, Shingo-Kun's was able to punch a punching bag hard enough to imprint a scorched mark. (Shows Rock the Picture) See?
Rock: Wait, hang on. Let me put my glasses on me first.
Leona: You wear glasses?
Rock: On occasions. (Takes Out a Black Glasses Case From Out of his Jacket, Opens it and Puts his Glasses On) Mary was worried that I kept staying up all night playing video games as of late, so she took me to eye doctor to get one. (Chuckles a Bit) She even made Terry get one of his own at one point.
Leona: Knowing him, I'm certain he doesn't wearing them all that often.
Rock: Yeah, totally. (Fixes his Glasses Up his Face a Little as He Sees the Picture of the Small, but Noticeable Scorched Mark on the Punching Bag Leona Told Him About) Huh. So this was all done by Shingo, huh? (Smiles Softly) He really came a long way.
Leona: (Smiles Softly as Well) He has. And I couldn't be anymore proud of him for it.
Rock: Agreed. And listen, I know K' is a lot of things-
Leona: Lazy, rude, arrogant, incompetent in some areas.
Rock: (Snickers a Bit) Wow. You described him.a lot perfectly than I ever could. But still, despite all of that, he does care about Shingo a lot. He just has his way of showing it is all.
Leona: ('Sigh') I suppose you do have a point there. (Turns Back to the Trio Still Bantering Towards Each Other) Speaking of which.....
Rock: I got this.
Rock takes his phone out from his pants pocket and turns on a fairly loud trumpet alarm, instantly startling three of his and Leona's friends enough to get his attention.
K': (Glares at Rock) Would it at least kill you to warn us before you start doing that shit, Bogard!?
Rock: (Shrugs With a Cheeky Smirk on his Face) I could've, but trumpet alarming you guys is a lot funner to me.
Leona: As much as I would love to hear more of your banters, I believe we've wasted enough time as we should. (Turbs Back to her Boyfriend) Shingo-Kun, you are more than welcome to steal a Star from me.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) What!? But you've just gotten yours fair and square.
Leona: (Smiles Softly) True, but you've worked hard to obtain the necessary amount of coins you needed to get here. Plus, the Current Star Space isn't too far off from my direction, so it's better to accept my loss than try convince you not to.
Kula: Aww......
K': You are one brave soldier, Leona Heidern. I envy you. (Puts on a Satisfied Grin on his Face) Now let's go ahead and steal.that Star of Her's- What the fuck!?
Much to K's surprise, Shingo steals his Star by picking his character, Waluigi.
Kuka: ('GASPS') Plot Twist!
Leona: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Surprise) Shingo, what are you doing?
Shingo: Something I should've done from the start. (Turns to Leona While Gently Grabbing Hold to Both of her Hands) This is your first playing Mario Party with us. And I'm not gonna ruin it by stealing something you worked just as hard as getting.
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness as She Gently Squeezes her Boyfriend's Hands) You sweetheart~ You or anyone in this room could never ruin my first experience in playing video games with you guys. I'm already enjoying myself quite well honestly.
Shingo: Aww~ You are?
Leona: (Happily Nodded) Mmhmm. Granted, I'm still new to this kind of stuff myself, but it doesn't falter my enjoyment one bit. But it means so much to see you look out for me.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Of course! What kind if boyfriend I would if I didn't. I love you, Leona-san~
Leona: I love you too, Shingo-Kun~
The couple stares happily at each other for a brief second before giving each other a soft peck on each other's lips.
Kula: (Clasps her Hands Together While Her Eyes Sparkle in Pure Happiness at the Scene) AWWWWWWWWWWWW!~
Rock: Now that's adorable.
K': ('Sighs Heavily in Defeat') Yeah, cute. But not surprising either. I'll get your ass back for this, Shingo Yabuki.
Shingo: (Gives K' a Competitive Grin on his FaceL Ready for you anytime, K'Dash! (Grin Quickly Falters into Fear as Slouches Himself Down a Bit) He's gonna squash me like a bug.....
Leona: (Whispers into Shingo's Ears) Don't worry. I brought myself a Custom Warp Block on the last turn. I could always use it on him if tries anything drastic. It's the least I cam do for what you've done for me.
Shingo: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness as Pulls his Girlfriend into a Loving Hug) Oh honey!~ Thank you!~
Leona: Honey?
Shingo: Uhh.... (Eyes Widened at the Realization of What He Just Said Before Quickly Letting Go of Leona and Looking Away Blushing) I-It's one if the few nicknames I came up for you. N-Not official mind you! Just a Work in Progress is all.....Sorry.
Leona: (Shakes her Head as She Happily Hugs Shingo Beside Her) Don't apologize. It sounds lovely~
Shingo: I'm not too sure about that personally....(Happily Rest his Head on Top of Leona's) But I'm glad you like it~
K': Hey, are we going to start the minigane or what?

Mini Fanfic #1049: Letting Out These Hidden Feelings (King of Fighters)
12:23 p.m. at Seriah's (Whip) Bedroom.......
Seriah: (Gently Rubs a Shaking Leona's Back) Relax, Leona, there's no need to stress yourself out over this.
Kula: (Smiles Brightly) Yeah. So what if you kissed Shingo under the Mistletoe? At least you didn't die from crippling embarrassment, right?~
Leona: (Immediately Turns to Kula) I'VE KISSED HIM WITHOUT CONSENT, KULA!! I stood there, KISSED HIM, and left him scared and confused afterwards!
Kula: Pretty sure you left him a blushing mess if anything.
Leona: You're right. (Grabs her Chin While Thinking) I did see a hint of blush on one of his cheeks before leaving....Wait.....(Eyes Begins to Widened in Panic) Is it possible that I gave him a burning fever that night!!?
Seriah: No, Leona, you haven't. People blush wherever they're given a gesture like that, I promise you it's a lot more common than you think. And besides, the whole thing happened like what? A few weeks ago? (Smiles Sheepishly) I'm sure he's already over it by now.
Meanwhile at the Bogard Residence's Living Room.....
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Panic) I'm not over it. (Starts Walking Back and Forth Which Rock, K, and Mary Watches) We're in a brand new year, new beginning, a new chapter in our lives and I STILL can't get that kiss out of my mind! (Groans Holding his Head) Just what the in hell is wrong with me right now!?
K': (Raises his Hand Up With a Smirk on his Face) I can come up with a few answers for ya- (Immediately Gets Elbowed on the Side by Rock Beside Him)
Mary: (Gives Shingo a Reassuring Smile) Nothing is wrong with you, honey. You're just developing feelings for a girl you might like. It happens to most of us here, you know?
Rock: Plus, considering how close you two have gotten as of late, it was only a matter of time before one of you starts potentially falling for the other.
Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes in Annoyance) And must to the surprise of NO ONE, that person just so happens to be me!....('Sighs in Defeat') But I guess I couldn't be helped at this point...(Smiles a Little) I really do like spending time with her.
............................................................................
Leona: (Smiles a Little Bashfully) His company always does find a way to put a smile on my face. In more ways than one...~
Seriah: (Smiles Brightly) Awww~ Well, that's nice and sweet~ K' and Kula did say that he's a sweet boy.
Kula: The Sweetest!~
Leona: (Happily Nodded) Indeed. ('Sigh') Still, I never would've imagine the two of us being in a loving relationship up till this point....
..................................................................
Shingo: (Continues Walking Back and Forth) Like, how could someone as strong, professional, level headed, prett- I-I mean uh!....(Starts Blushing) Good looking.
................................................................
Leona: Sweet, hard working, optimistic, handso- I-I mean! Um...('Clears Throat') Well...dressed as him would ever be interested in...well....
Leona/Shingo: Someone like me?.....
...............................................................
Rock: What make you think you're not any better?
.................................................................
Kula: Yeah, I think you're great.
Leona: Thank you, Kula, but....(Sighs While Grabbing her Chin) Geez.....
................................................................
Shingo: Where do I even begin!? I'm clumsest guy on the face of this planet, I'm nowhere NEAR as strong as she is, and I STILL can't create my own flames for the like of me!
...............................................................
Leona: I know I'm not the most expressive or as outgoing and energetic as you two or the majors, but...what if someday he'll....fine me too boring? (Frowns Sadly While Rubbing her Arm Softly) A waste of time even.....
..............................................................
Mary: (Crosses her Arms While Delivering a Motherly Glare on her Face) Shingoooo....
Rock: (Crosses his Arms and Glaring at Shingo as Well) What did we say about having flame powers?
Shingo: (Sighs as He Repeat the Words Mary and Rock Told Him a While Ago in the Pass) You don't have to possess flames to be a cool and amazing person.
Rock/Mary: And?
Shingo: And we will always love you regardless if you have one or not. (Crosses his Arms, Looks Away and Pout) I love you guys too by the way......
Rock nodded his head with a approval like smile on his face while Mary places her hand on her chest as she is easily touched by Shingo's words.
K': Alright and what else?
Shingo: K', are you serious right no-
K': (Squints his Glare Harder at Shingo) Say it.
Shingo: (Groans in Annoyance as He Reluctantly Begins to Say the Words K' Told Him a While Back) And the only flame user in this entire world who is more cool and badass than the rest is the one and only.....('Sigh') K' Dash.
K': (Has his Hands Behind Head As He Rest his Two Feet on the Coffee Table With a Satisfied Smile on his Face) Damn right- ARGH! (Immediately Gets Elbowed Again by Rock)
Rock: You're not helping.
Mary: (Smacks K Upside the Head) And what did I say about having your feet on the table!?
K': (Quickly Pits his Feet Back Down on the Floor) Alright, alright, alright, I'm sorry! (Crosses his Arms While Turning Away) Christ.....
Rock: (Rolls his Eyes) Anyways.....(Turns Back to Shingo) Do you really think Leona would only care if you have flames or not?
Shingo: Well....no, but-
Rock: Or how strong you are compared to her?
Shingo: Well....I mean....I guess not-
Rock: Then there you go. That girl cares more about who you are as a person than all the things you can or can't do. Can't be any more simpler than that.
Mary: (Happily Nodded in Agreement) Exactly! Pus, I know tons of girls who fell for guys who has a clumsy side to their personality. Who's to say Leona wouldn't like that too?
K': Not to mention thar you're the only one who could make her laugh more times than I ever could. That's accomplishment in it of itself.
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah. It always good to make her laugh. And it's the one thing I'm better at than you.
K': Out of a million.
Shingo: Don't ruin my moment.
..................................................................
Kula: ('Sigh') Honestly, Leona. I never take you as such a worry-wart about all of this.
Leona: ('Sigh') Well, when you start developing these feelings as much as I have, you're bound worry about them sooner or late. It's tedious and irritating......
Kula: (Giggles Softly) I bet. (Pouts at Leona) But seriously though, you know as well as I do that Shingo would never think badly of you. Especially when he admires and talks about you a whole lot as of late
Leona: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Surprise) He has? But I always thought he looks up Kyo.
Kula: (Crosses her Arms) I mean, he still kind of does in a way, but he quit being a fan of his a while ago actually. (Went Back to Pouting) And I don't blame him one bit. That guy's a big fat jerk!
Leona: I see.....(So that would explain why he doesn't talk about him all that much...)
Seriah: We've already established how much of a sweetheart he is, so you shouldn't have to worry about him being bore of you all that much. Also, you don't have to try to be more outgoing or energetic to be more open and express yourself. You're already doing a good enough job of doing that in you our way.
Leona: You.....really think so?
Seriah: (Smiles Softly) I know so. In fact, I think you've changed quite a lot since last few years. The old you would've tried bottling up those feelings in and acted like none them ever happened. But now here you are: sitting in my bed while you letting out all your troubles and feelings out to the both of us. If that's not your way of opening up to us, I don't know what is.
Kula: (Happily Pulls Leona into a Hug) And we're sooooo happy to have our many girl talks with you, Big Sis Leona!~
Leona: (Giggles Softly by the Nickname Given to Her) Likewise~ (Gently Rubs the Top of Kula's Hair) I always puts me at ease talking to you two. And I can't thank either of you enough for doing everything you can to help. As a matter of fact.....Seriah, would you lend me my phone for a second? I need to make a call.
..................................................................
'Muffled Viberating Sound'
Shingo: Hm? (Notices the Viberating Sound Coming From his Pants' Pocket Before Taking his Phone Out of It) I wonder who's calling right- NOW!? (Eyes Widened as He Sees Leona's Name on the Screen Before Turning Back to Everyone Else and Whispering in Panic) It's Leona! She's CALLING!!!
Rock: (Raises an Eyebrow in a Bit of Confusion) What makes her wanna do that?
Shingo: I don't know!!
Mary: Well, go ahead and answer the call then, champ!
K': (Points at Shingo) And don't even think about chickening out either. Or i'mma be pissed!
Shingo: (Quickly Nodded) Right! (Tales a Deep Breath) I got this.....(Finally (And a Bit Nervously) Answers the Call) Hello?
Leona: (Calling From the Other Line) Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: (Puts on a Smile on his Face) Oh Leona-san, how's it going?
Leona: I'm doing alright today. And you?
Shingo: I'm doing alright. Oh, and Happy New Years! If I forgot to tell you that already....
Leona: (Giggles Softly) You haven't and Happy New Years to you too~ Actually I've been wondering......
................................................................
Leona: If you're not too busy today, would you like to have another training session with me a little later?
Shingo: (From the Other Line) To start the new year off? Definitely! (Chuckles Lightly) To be honest, I kinda needed a good workout to start the day off right about now...
Leona: (Playfully Raises an Eyebrow) Really now? Well, as your faithful training partner and coach, I advise you to give me everything you got out there without any hesitation in tact. Do I make myself clear?
Shingo: Yes ma'am, Ms. Heidern-san sir!! I'll do my best!!!
Kula and Whip quietly giggles by Shingo's quick and (somewhat silly) determination attitude.
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Always good to hear you determined~ But....ummm....
Shingo: Hm?
Leona: If it's alright with you, would you....(Starts Twirling the Front of her Hair a Bit Shyly) Like the two of us to hangout some more afterwards?
........................................................................
Shingo: (Quickly Nodded) Y-Yeah, sure! Which place do you have in mind for us to go to this time around?
Leona: Anywhere of your choosing is fine with me. I'm still new to this city.
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Same here. But I'll try to keep us both entertained. Ooh! After we do all of that, do maybe.....(Starts Blushing Lightly) wanna to spend the night at my to watch some movies and stuff?
Mary: (Gasos While Covering her Mouth)
K': Well, I'll be damned.
Rock: Shingo's the man.
Leona: M-Movie night? At your place?
Shingo: Yeah. M-My sisters will be gone by the time we arrive here, one to her friends' sleepover and other to an overnight wirk hours, so I'm gonna have to ask Tsubaki about that beforehand. B-But we cam totally do anything else you want-
Leona: N-No, no, it's fine really. I just.....Never expected you to invite me to your home up until now......
Shingo: Yeah. (Neither did I honestly......)
Leona: But still, I can't wait for our first day outing in the New Year.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Same here! We can both let each other know if one of us is right to go out.
Leona: Sounds like a plan. I still hope you're prepared for our first training. I won't hold anything back this time.
Shingo: Wasn't expecting you to! Oh a-and uhh....Leona?
Leona: Yes?
Shingo: I....I love you. (Immediately Blushes Bright Red as He Realizes What He Just Said) B-B-But only as a very close friend who I care about everyday!!
K': Nice save, Romeo- (Immediately Gets Elbowed and Smacked Upside the Head Again By Rock and Mary)
....................................................
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Surprise) Shingo-Kun.....I love you too.
Whip/Kula: Awwwwwwwwww!~
Leona: (Immediately Starts Blushing Once Sge Realized What She Just Said Too) B-B-But only as a close friend and companion whom I will cherish for the rest of my life!.....I-I see you in a few.
Shingo: Y-Yeah. Take care.
Leona: You too. (Ends Call Before Laying her Head Face Down on a Nearby Pillow While Groaning) Why did say all of that?
..............................................
Shingo: (Covers his Face Up in Embarrassment) Why did i say all of thaaaaaat!?
Rock: Friends say 'I love you' to each other from time to time, Shingo. It's not that big of a deal
Mary: Just focus on your training session and you can get that thought out of your head in no time. Probably.
Shingo: ('Sigh') I'll try...But.....If we do...end up dating one another in the future.....
.....................................................
Leona: (Starts Rubbing Her Arm Shyly) Could you guys....maybe give me a few pointers on the dating scene or whatnot?
..................................................
Mary: (Smiles Brightly) Absolutely!~ (Proudly Points at Her Chest) Take it from a gal who has more dates than she can count in her youth. You and that Heidern girl will be a match made in heaven in no time!~
Rock: (Smiles Sheepishly) Not the best with girls myself, but I'll try and help out the best way I can.
K': (Shrugs) I don't care about romance either way, but I suppose I can help you from making a bigger fool of yourself than you already are.
Shingo: (Immediately Glares at K) Hey!
.......................................................
Kula: (Smiles Brightly) Are you kidding? Of course we can help you give dating advice!!~
Seriah: (Happily Nodded) Definitely!~ Though, it hasn't been too long since I've started dating Adel....
Leona: The Captain of Sky Noah? How has he been?
Seriah: He's doing great for the most part. He says he'll might over here to visit the Colonel for another meeting later this month. So....fingers cross for us hanging out again~ (Blushes Before Clearing her Throat) B-But yeah, we got your back one hundred percent, Leona.
Kula: (Smiles Brightly) Definitely!~ Oh but this goes without saying.....(Suddenly Gives Leona Dark Smiling Look on her Face) If you eeeever break Shingo's heart, I will freeze you solid till there's nothing left for you to breath and move.
Seriah: (Sternly Glares at the Ice Princess) Kula! Don't scare Leona like that! (Turns Back to Leona With a Reassuring Smile) I won't let her freeze you solid. Just treat Shingo like you've always been treating him, okay?
Leona: (Startled a Bit by Kula's Sudden Warning) N-Noted. ('Sigh') But still.
.............................................
Shingo/Leona: (Smiles Softly) I can't thank you guys enough for this.

Mini Fanfic #1057: Memorable Date Movie Night (King of Fighters)
9:05 p.m. at the Yabuki's Residence...............
'Door Open'
Shingo: And here we are: our new home!
Leona: (Looks Around the Inside of the Apartment as Shingo Politely Let Her Walk in) It looks nice and cozy.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly as He Closes the Door Behind Him) Thanks. It's not as too familiar as our old home, but I'm still liking it so far.
Leona: Do you ever missed being in Japan?
Shingo: Sometimes. I miss seeing mom, Saisyuu Sensei, and Mrs. Kusanagi-san a lot, but at the same time, I'm.....kinda starting feel more home here in Southtown as of late. Mostly cause I have Rock, K', Kula, Ms. Mary, Chizuru-Senpai, Athena, Hinako, Malin, and....(Smiles Softly at Leona) you here with me.
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness) We're happy to have you here with us too, Shingo-Kun. (Gives Shingo a Loving Hug)
Shingo: (Heart Starts to Flutter as He Happily Hugs Leona Back For a Couple of Seconds Before Letting Go and Clappibg his Hands Together) Okay! What kind of movie you wanna watch first?
Leona: (Eyes Widened a Bit) You want me to pick first? Are you sure?
Shingo: (Happily Nodded) Yeah, you're my house guest. (Holds his Finger in a Proper Manner) Tsubaki says that I should always treat anyone I welcomed I'm this house with politeness and respect. Especially if it's that guest in particular, is a pretty gir- (Immediately Blushes Once He Realizes What He's Saying) FRIEND! Friend! I-I mean, pretty friend- J-JUST FRIEND! Not to say that you're not pretty or anything, you are very, very pretty- B-B-But that's besides the point!!
Leona: (Starts to Blush as Well Before Bringing her Ponytail in Front of Her Face to Hide In) T-Thanks. You're too kind.....(Finally Let's Go of her Ponytail) B-But if you insist, I was thinking we could watch that Powerpuff Girks Movie together.
Shingo: Oh really? I didn't know you like the series.
Leona: I didn't at first. But Kula convinced me to watch a marathon of it one time and I've became a fan ever since. Also, i advise you to stay clear from the reboot.
Shingo: ('Sigh') A bit too late on that one, Leona-san...Naomi and I watched an episode of it a year or two ago and hated it ever since.
Leona: Which episode did you two watched?
Shingo: The one with the panda.....(Shivers at the Painfully Memory)
Leona: You poor thing.
Shingo: Yeah....But anyways, you want anything to snack before we get this movie night started?
Leona: I'm still full from the restaurant we ate together earlier. But I wouldn't mind having a bottle of water.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Bottle of water it is! (Makes his Way towards the Kitchen) In the meantime, make yourself feel at home and relax.
Leona: (Simply Nodded) Okay.
Leona walks over to the sofa in front of her and sits down. As she waits for Shingo to bring her beverage, she notices two picture frames standing on top of coffee table in front of her. One was a family portrait of him, his sisters and an older woman behind them, whom she assumes that their mother, and the other was a group picture of he taken with Kyo, Saisyuu, Chizuru, and the rest of members of Team Japan. There are many differences between two photos side by side, but the one similarity they both seem to have is that it shows off the fighting protégé's bright, optimistic smile, the same that brightens up everyone's day, even hers. They were so infectionate that it causes Leona to form one of her own, a fond one if you will.
It didn't take too long for the Ikari Warrior in question to decide to let her hair down. She was told to make herself feel at home, so it wouldn't kill her too much to unwind a little every once and a while, despite that being something she needs to work on, given it's a critique her peers gave her.
Shingo: (Walks Back into the Living Room With Two Bottles of Water in his Face) I'm back with the wa- (Eyes Begins to Widened at the Sight of Leona and Her Long Hair) -ter......
Leona: (Smiles Softly) Welcome back. (Notices Shingo is Staring at her) Is...everything okay?
Shingo: ............
Leona: Shingo-Kun?.......Shingo!
Shingo: (Immediately Comes Back to Reality) Oh! Yeah, uh.....Sorry about that. I just....Never expected to see you with your hair down up until now. You look so pretty- GREAT! Great. You look pretty great I mean! Again, not to say you're not pretty or anything, which you are, by the way, very much so- I....(Sighs in Defeat as He Hands Leona her Drink) Here's your water......
Leona: (Receives her Bottle of Water While Looking Away, Blushing) T-Thank you. For the water....and the compliment....(Slowly Turns Back to Shingo) Are you ready to watch our first movie together?
Shingo: (Quickly Nodded) Yeah, totally.
Shingo makes his way to the sofa and sits down next to Leona before turning on the TV with regular sized remote and then turning on the FireStick with the mini remote control next. As he searches through the movie he's looking for, a million thoughts begins to run circles in his head, all of which involves having feelings for a certain military combatant right next to o him.
On one hand he wonders a scenario would be like if him and Leona would ever start dating, how affectionate either of them would become as time passes, which to him, at least, would be nice. They've gotten along so well since they've first met, so having them.be a couple wouldn't be too much of a hassle (hopefully). But all good, wishful thinking must come to a stretching halt Shingo now starts to think about the worst case scenario: where Leona would decline his offer and starts seeing him as a distraction, a nuisance even. Which to him is....kind of understandable. He does have the tendency to annoy people on some occasions, even to his closest peers. So it wouldn't be too surprising if she starts getting sick of him someday, which he really hopes that never comes to tuition, but only time can only tell on that one.
But in the end, the option Shingo ultimately choose is the middle ground: confess his ongoing feelings to her now and embrace any form outcome heading his viewpoint, good or bad. This the new year, a new beginning for everyone, and he refuse to let something as trivia as mushy feelings get in the way of resolution: to become a stronger, more confident person everyone and himself can rely on.
Sp as he finds the words Powerpuff Girls Movie on the screen, he puts the mini remote back down on the table, takes a deep breaths, and mentally gives himself a word of encouragement before-
Leona: Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: (Comes Back to Reality and Turning to Leona) Hm?
Leona: There's......(Starts Rubbing her Arm Nervously) Something I've been meaning to tell you all day....(Turns her Head to Shingo) If you don't mind hearing me out.
Shingo: N-Not at all! (Starts Rubbing The Back of his Head Back and Forth) I wanted to tell you something too, but you can go first....
Leona: If you insist. (Takes a Very Deep Breath) Okay. It's been a long time coming, but....I....I-I......(Starts Closing her Eyes While Blurting Out....) I-I think I have a romantic feelings for you! A really, REALLY huge one!!
Shingo: Oh, that's great- (Eyes Finally Starts to Widened) Wait, WHAAAAAAAAT!? B-B-But when!? How!?
Leona: The night of December, when I....kissed you under the Mistletoe (Without Consennnnnt!.....) I didn't want to think much of it at the time, but overtime, I started to look back on our bond and all the times we've spent together. And granted, I'm well aware that romance takes a lot of effort and communication....(Closes her Eyes Again) But I still wanna give it chance! I wanna give YOU a chance because YOU Shingo Yabuki worth so much more than you think you do! ('Sigh') But still, I completely understand if you don't feel that-
'Sniff'
Leona: (Turhs Back to See Shingo's Sparkling,Teary Eyes) Shingo-Kun?
Shingo: Leona....('Sniff') I feel same...('Sniff') (Closes his Eyes as He Blurts Out) I HAVE A REALLY HUGE ROMANTIC FEELINGS ABOUT YOU TOOOOO!~
Leona: Wait. (Eyes Starts to Widened as Her Bkush Turns Bright Red, Equivalent to That of a Tomato) Y-Y-You do!?~ W-When? How!?
Shingo: (Starts Wiping his Eyes) Last year, when we went to the coffee shop together after our workout session. When I....(Blushes Again) said that you're amazing and any guy would be lucky to date you....Also, I may have slipped and called you the two words I never I would ever say put together in a sentence.
Leona: Full Package?
Shingo: Yeah, that. I thought about it a lot since then and it didn't really help that the kiss you gave me under the Mistletoe that night basically ignited my feelings for you even more than I let on. Which I liked a lot by the way! Just wish I'd reacted less embarrassing is all...B-But anyways, yeah. I thought about all of that and you along with it. How....things would turn out if we start dating and whatnot. But I've also figured that there might be a chance that you wouldn't feel the same and that you would....also probably think of me a nuisance after a while-
Leona: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Shock) What? Shingo, why would you think I would ever think that way about you?
Shingo: I dunno! It's just the thought that occurred to me at the time! It's nerve wrecking!!
Leona: ('Sigh') I agree. I can't tell you how many time I've been stressed out over these scenarios. (Gently Grabs Both of Shingo's Hands) But even then, I would never think anything terribly about you. I adore you too much to do something like that.
Shingo: You....really mean that?
Leona: (Simply Nodded) I do. Your sweet, upbeat, and especially goofy attitude always manages to put a smile on my face whenever we had the chance to spend time together. And it's thanks to all of that and more it inspired me to be express myself a lot more than I have been, let loose from all the stress and usual seriousness I've displayed on duty.
Shingo: (Genuine Surprised by Leona's Words) Wow. I....never thought I would make that much impact on you.
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Well, it's the truth, isn't it? You're not the only one who've made an impact in my life thus far, mind you, but I will never take your contribution for granted.
Shingo: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness) Thanks, Leona-san. I'll never your contribution for granted either.
Leona: (Eyebrow Raised a Bit in Confusion) What contribution exactly?
Shingo: For taking the time to train with me to be a better fighter. (Starts Twiddling his Fingers Together Bashfully) As well as for spending time with me....and being my friend....
Leona: (Giggles Some More) You're very welcome, Shingo-Kun~ (Suddenly Begins to Frown at the Recent Thought) But.....Can I.....ask you another question?
Shingo: What's up?
Leona: Are you....aware of Orochi? And his influence?
Shingo: (Simply Nodded) Yeah. Sensei and Chizuru-Senpai already filled me on everything. About the Hakkeshu, their history, and.....the Riot of the Blood. (Gently Squeezes Both of Leona's Hands and Gives her Determined Look on his Face) And before you say anything else, let me tell you right here and now that you having that cursed won't ever stop me from loving you!
Leona: I-I know, but.....what if I suddenly start losing control again? What if I end up hurting you in the process?
Shingo: (Smiles Reassuringly) Then I'll just have to do everything I can to calm you back down to your sense. Besides, I almost got killed by Iori once, it won't be that much of a big deal- Why did I say that out loud?
Leona: (Eyes Widened in Horror) You WHAT!? Iori used the Riot of the Blood on you!? How!? When!?
Shingo: ('Sighs in Defeat') A few years ago after the 11th KOF tournament ended....(Eyes Widened a Bit of the Memory) On that bridge.... (Suddenly Felt Leona's Hands Shivers with His Before Going Back to Reassurance Mode) B-But I promise to tell you all about it one of these days. Right now, I want you to know from the bottom of my heart that you are NOT a monster nor are you ever Orochi's slave. You are Leona Heidern, the strongest solider I've ever have the pleasure of meeting, whom I and everyone of your peers love very much and that will never change.
Leona felt tears falling down from her eyes as she let's go of one of Shingo's hands to use her own to wipe them away with a small, hopeful smile creeping up on her face.
Leona: ('Sniff') You really are too kind for this world, Shingo-Kun....
Shingo: (Smiles Softly) You too. You deserve to be happy.
Leona's heart begins to flutter as she stares into Shingo's eyes and the care and sincerity it displays with it. It was comforting to see and hear that her love ones cared deeply about her and her well-beings. Even more so that one of them is the boy she's falling in love with. His words fueled something within her. A determined, strong fuel that could never be put out no matter who or what tries to do otherwise.
She'll figure it all of out some other time. As of right now however, Leona has something else in mind get over it.
Leona: Shingo?
Shingo: Hm?
Leona: Sorry, but....Can I....do something right quick?
Shingo: Uh sure. What is it you wanna do?
Leona: (Gently Places her Hand Onto Shingo's Cheeks) This.
Leona leans her head forward and gives Shingo a soft, loving kiss on the lips, sealing the deal of it's entirety. Much to the boy's very apparent surprise.
Shingo: (Blushes Yet Again) Woah.....
Leona: You....like?
Shingo: Yeah.....I like it a lot. So....I guess that means we're uh....
Leona: A couple now. I don't know about you, but....(Smiles Bashfully at Shingo) I would like that to happen. Though, I'm....still new to the whole....romance thing, so....please try to bear with me.
Shingo: (Smiles Softly) Only if you could do the same for me. But...uhhhh...can we....you know? Kiss again? Just for the hell of it?
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Of course~
The newly founded couple leans closer to one another for a second kiss until.....
'BA DA DADADA DA DAAAAAA!'
Shingo/Leona: (Gets Startled by the Jingle Before Turning Towards the TV to see That the Movie a has Started Playing)
Shingo: Huh. (Chuckles a Bit) I guess the FireStick gotten tired of us waiting for so long, huh?
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Yeah. But I think we've wasted enough time as it is. B-But uhh...one more thing and that's it for tonight, but.....Do you....maybe wanna....cuddle together?
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Would i!?~ But before we do that....(Grabs a Folded Blanket from the Arm of the Sofa) We gotta get comfy first. (Uses the Blanket to Cover Both Himself and Leona) Like this.
Leona: Hm. Well, what do you know? (Scoots Over to Shingo and Hugs Him) I feel nice and comfy already~
Shingo: (Happily Hugs Leona Back) Told ya. It's relaxing, you know?
Leona: Agreed.
TV Screen: The City of Townsville
Shingo: Leona
Leona: Hm?
Shingo: I know I've already told you this earlier today, but I really mean it when I say that I love you. And I'm willing to tell you that everyday if you want me to.
Leona: You really don't have to do that. (Smiles Softly as She Snuggles Onto to Shingo's Embrace) But I'll always be happy to hear you tell me that regardless. Because I love you too. Always.

Mini Fanfic #1103: Lunch Date With the Colonel (King of Fighters)
12:47 p.m. in the Streets of Southtown........
Shingo: (Takes a Deep Breath While Walking on the Sidewalk Next to K') Alright. (Pats on Both Sides of his Pants) I got my phone om my left pocket, my wallet on my right, house key.....(Turns to K') How do I look? Plain? Too causal?
K': You look decent to me.
Shingo: You sure? (Points Back) Cause I can go run back to my apartment and-
K': Kid, relax. You look fine and you and I both know your stamina is not good enough to run back and forth in long distance without tiring yourself out down the line.
Shingo: ('Sighs Heavily') I knoooow. I just want to make good enough impression on the colonial. I mean, you said yourself, right? That he's serious most of the time?
K': Yeah, in the battlefield. He seems like a chill guy to talk to whenever he's off duty.
Shingo: ('Sighs in Relief') Chill and calm. Okay.
K': Then again, I did seen him give that one guy the death glare for making eye contact at him for too long.
Shingo: (Eyes Begins to Widened in Fear) D-Death Glare?
K': And he doesn't seem like the type to have patience talking someone being nervous around him. Either that or he must've not been a fan of unprofessionalism.
Shingo: (Places his Hands on Both Sides of his Head) He is gonna crush me like a bug, I am SO screw!!
K': ('Sigh') Again, relax. Just stay clam, be yourself out there and everything will go smoothly from there....But just in case, tone down on your goofy side and try not to miss toss your drink on his face by mistake
Shingo: (Turns to K') Oh come on, I'm not that clumsy-
Shingo trips on a small rock and begins to fall forward until K' was ae to catch him in the neck of time by grabbing the back of his shirt collar at ease.
Shingo: ..........Point taken. (Stands Back Up on his Feet and Starts Tidying Up Himself) Thanks.
K': (Simply Nodded) Mmhm. (Takes a Look at the Café in Front of His Prospective) Is this the place you guys are supposed to be meeting at?
Shingo: (Nodded To K') Yep. Las Bistro. (Takes a Look at the Place as Well) Never been there before, I have heard that the food here is worth checking out.
????????: I recommend you try the Kidu-Kidu Karo meal. Sliced, cooked intestinal sausages that originated from Karo Land of North Sumatera.
The duo turns their attention to a man wearing a blue, turtle neck sweater and an eye patch, sitting on outdoor table before nodding at them.
??????: Gentlemen.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened at the Familiar Face) Coloniel Heidern!?
K': You got here as early as always
Heidern: Indeed I have. It would be rude of me not to meet my daughter's boyfriend on the appointed time. (Turns to Shingo) Shingo Yabuki isn't it? (Pulls Out his Hand to Shingo With a Soft Smile on his Face) It's a pleasure to finally meet you in person.
Shingo stares at Heidern's hand before he felt a gentle shoulder bump from K' Dash, silently telling him to accept the gesture.
Shingo: (Nervous Gives his Girlfriend's Father His Hand as He Shakes It With His) T-T-The pleasure is all mine, sir....
Heidern: (Frowns a Bit) You're shaking. Is everything okay?
Shingo: (Quickly Goves Heidern a Sheepish Smile Before Taking a Seat on his and Heidern's Table) I-I'm okay, sir. Just a tad bit nervous on meeting you is all.
Heidern: (Gives Shingo a Reassuring Smile) I understand how nerve-wracking first impressions can be at times, but I csn assure you that I won't bite. (Notices K' Trying to Sneak Off) Which reminds me.......K'Dash!
K': (Immediately Stops Walking by the Command as He Slowly Turns Back the Colonel) U-Uh...Yeah?
Heidern: (Glares at his White Haired Associate) What is this I hear about you using my name and profession as a fear tactic towards your friend here?
K': (Slouches his Arms Down in Defeat) Leona told you all about that, didn't she?
Heidern: Yes, she did. And let's just say I'm not too happy by your immature antics. We'll talk about this later. (Raises an Eyebrow) Unless you want to do so right now on our lunch meeting.
K': (Groans While Rolling his Eyes in Annoyance) No sir. I'd rather us talk later. (Finally Walks Away) Have fun on your lunch date or whatever.
Shingo: 'Kay! (Waves Goodbye to his Friend) See you later, K'!
Heidern: (Sighs While Slowly Shakes his Head) When will that boy ever learn? (Turns to Shingo) I apologize for my subordinate's rudeness and mistreatment towards you.
Shingo: It's okay, sir. He doesn't mean any real harm by it.
Heidern: Are you certain?
Shingo: (Happily Nodded) Mmhmm! I mean, sure, he can be a real pain in the neck sometimes, but he's still one of the coolest people I've ever had the pleasure of being friends with. He even went out of his way to walk with me here just help me calm my nerves.
Heidern: (Simply Nodded With a Small Smile on his Face) I see. That's good to hear. It's nice to see him putting the effort to open up amd make new friends rather than making potential enemies.
Shingo: Right? I always knew he's a big softie deep down, even when he tries hard not to be for some reason.
Heidern: You always tend to see the best in people, don't you Shingo?
Shingo: Mostly? (Starts Rubbing The Back of his Head Back and Forth) I mean, i wouldn't say I see best in literally EVERYONE I meet, but I try to give the select few that I know a benefit of doubt as best I can, you know
Heidern: And that's admirable in it of itself. I can see why Saisyu hold you in high regards.
Shingo: (Eyes Begins to Widened) Wait, you know Master Saisyu!?
Heidern: (Simply Nodded Once More) I do, yes. He would Invite me to his house to have tea with him and his wife, every time I visit Japan. As loud and prideful as he is, his company and wise-cracking jokes never fails to brighten up my day, especially the stressful ones.
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah, that's master for ya. Always finding some way to make anyone laugh. I miss him. And everyone else back in Japan really.
Heidern: Do.you wish to visit them one of these days?
Shingo: Definitely! (Crosses his Arms While Brainstorming) Granted, I would need to save up more of my money for plane tickets as well as plan out a perfect schedule for the visit, but I would love to back there and bring everyone I know with me. Rock, K', Kula, Ms. Mary, Terry if isn't too busy doing whatever, and Leona. I-If that's.....perfectly okay with you of course, sir....
Heidern: It's fine with me. I know she's capable of taking care of herself.
Shingo: (Happily Nodded) Exactly! And I'll do everything I can to male sure she has the best time ever.
Heidern: I'm sure you will. I honestly can't think of anywhere else Leona would rather be that to be with the young man who she gradually falls in love with, the one she vows to protect at all cost.
Shingo: She told you guys about? Y-You know, besides us dating or....whatever.....
Heidern: (Chuckles Lightly) How could she not? You're the one person she talks about the most, even when you two started out as friends. You've always managed to put a smile on her face, even more so than we ever could surprisingly enough.
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Surprise) I......really made that much of an impact on her?
Heidern: (Simply Nodded Yet Again) I believe you do. And I sincerely wish the best for the both of you going forward.
Shingo: (Eyes Starts to Lit Up as He Quickly Gets Up From his Seat and Bows Rapidly at Heidern in Graditude) T-Thank you so much for your approval, sir! I am truly grateful!~
Heidern: (Smiles Sheepishly) Easy now, Shingo. There's no need for that. If anything, I should be thanking you for making my little girl the happiest she has ever been.
Shingo: It's no problem at all! (Finally Stops Bowing) And listen, I may not be as special or as strong as you or any of other subordinates in your army, but that won't stop me from doing my damndest to love and be there for your daughter no matter what!
?????: I'll always love and be there for you too~
Shingo gets startled before turning around to see his girlfriend, Leona, standing beside him with her hair down wearing a light blue sundress.
Shingo: Leona-san? Is that really you?
Leona: (Smiles Sheepishly and a Tad Bit Brightly) In the flesh~ I apologize for not getting here sooner. Seirah insisted I find something more "formal" for our lunch date today. (Waves her Hair Back While Blushing and Looking Away a Bit) A-And I picked this dress, so......W-What do you think?~
Heidern: (Smiles Softly) It looks great on you, Leona.
Shingo: (Stares at Leona in Awe) Yeah......Amazing even~
Leona: (Slowly Starts Smiling Again) Thank you~ I think you look amazing too, Shingo-Kun~
Shingo: You think so? (Looks Down at the Dark Blue Buttoned Shirt and Black Pants He's Currently Wearing) It doesn't nearly look as noteworthy as you do.
Leona: Nonsense. Look wonderful. Handsome even~
Shingo: (Smiles Softly While Blushing and Gently Grab Hold of Both of Leona's Hands) And you're just as beautiful as you've always been~
Leona: (Giggles Softly) Oho you~
The couple begins to rub their noses on one another in an affectionate manner as Heidern begins to chuckle some more.
Heidern: Alright, you two. Save the romance after we order our meals. And be cautious with it as well. I'm afraid I'm far too young to have grandchildren.
Shingo/Leona: (Immediately Stop What They Were Doing and Turns to Heidern With Bright Red Blushes on Each of their Face) WHAAAAT!?
Leona: (Glares at Heidern) Father! We are NOT that careless!!
Heidern: (Smiles Sheepishly, Trying his Hardest Not to Let Out Yet Another Chuckle or Two) I know you're not, dear. Just wanted to make sure you two are responsible till the day you get married is all.
Leona: We are plenty responsible! And we're too young to think about our future wedding right now!!(Turns to her Flustered Boyfriend) Isn't that right, Shingo-kun?
Shingo: Careless.......Wedding......Grand.....chil.....de...rn....
Shingo begins to faint as he slouches himself down on his chair.
Leona: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock as She Let's out a Gasp) Oh no! Shingo-kun!!
Heidern: He fainted. (Grabs his Chin While Thinking) I think I might've went too far on the dad jokes there......
Leona: (Turns Back to Heidern) You think!? ('Sigh Heavily') Nevermind. Just go and ask a waiter for a glass of water for me to splash on Shingo's face while I keep him company. (Grabs One of her Unconscious' Boyfriend's Hand With One Hand While Using the Other to Fan his Face) Hurry!
Heidern: R-Right! (Quickly Gets Up From his Seat to Find the Nearest Waiter) U-Uh excuse me? Waiter? Waitress?

Mini Fanfic #1090: Video Calling Mom (King of Fighters)
12:54 p.m. at Borgard's Residence's Living Room.......
The words "Incoming Call" appears on a blue laptop's screen. As a hand reach and press down the mouse pad to answer the call, a small square begins to pop up of a woman in long, brown hair waving 'hello' with a bright smile on her face.
????: Hiiiii honey!~
Shingo: (Happily Waves Back at the Woman on Screen) Hi mom!~ it's been so long since I've seen you. How have you been?
Ms. Yabuki: I've been doing well so far. Relaxing, getting out the house to shop and see friends, missing my three, darling angels to pieces almost everyday, rinse and repeat. Ooh! (Ducks Down to Get Something From the Left Side of the Foot of a Chair She's Sitting on) Speaking of shopping, I was at the mall yesterday and stumbling upon this cute thing~ (Shows Shingo a Plushie of Himself Wearing his Old School Uniform)
Shingo: ('Gasps') No way! I have plushies of myself selling around your area!?
Ms. Yabuki: (Happily Nodded) Yep-Yep!~ I got from Build-A-Fighter Workshop. They sell all the well known fighters from that KOF tournament you'd always go to. In fact, words has it that you just so happens to become a fan favorite. Even more so than Shizuka and Saisyuu-San's boy~
Shingo: (Almost at a Loss For Words) ................I never thought I will ever happy to have my own marketable plushies up until now.
Kula: (Walks into the Room) Hey, Shingo, whatcha doin-(Gasps Loudly at the Sight of althea Shingo Plushie on his Laptop Screen) Oh my goooosh!~ (Quickly Makes her Way to the Sofa and Sits Next to Shingo) Is that a mini plushie of you!?~
Rock: (Walks into the Room Along with K Behind Him to Take a Look at the Plushie on Screen) It looks cute.
K': (Gives Shingo a Bit of a Teasing Smirk) And less obnoxious than the original.
Shingo: (Gives K' a Deadpinned Look on his Face) Gee, thanks, K'.
Mary: (Walks in the Room and Smacks K' Upside the Back of his Head) Quit being rude. (Gives Shingo a Reassuring Smile) Ignore him, kiddo, you're a sweetheart to be around.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Thanks, Ms.Mary!
Kula: Yeah, Shingo, you're way more sweet and fun than Mr. Lazybone behind you!
K': Better being lazy than being a energetic brat like you.
Kula: blows a Raspberry at K' while white haired boy points two middle fingers at her up and down.
Rock: ('Sigh') Knock it off already, two......
Mary: Seriously........
Ms. Yabuki: (Giggles Softly) Oho my!~ Are these are the lovely friends you told so much about, Shingo honey?
Shingo: (Smiles Sheepishly) More or less, yeah.....(Turns to the Gang Besides and Behind Him) Hey, guys!
Everyone stops bantering to one another as they give Shingo his attention.
Shingo: (Presenting Everyone to his Mother) I'd like to finally introduce you to the beautiful saint of a woman who gave me and my sister life, my mom!
Ms. Yabuki: (Giggles Softly While Blushing and Playfully Waving Off) Oh dear~
Shingo: And mom, allow me to introduce you to my lovely friends! Kula Diamond.
Kula: [Happily Waves at Mrs. Yabuki on Screen) Hiiiii!~
Shingo: Rock Howard Bogard.
Rock: (Smiles Softly at the Screen) Pleased to meet you.
Shingo: K' Dash.
K': 'Sup.
Shingo: And another beautiful saint who's willing to put up with our shenanigans for longest time now: Blue Mary!
Mary: (Starts Blushing a Bit While Smiling a Little and Moving the Front of her Hair Back) Honestly, Shingo, I'm not THAT much of a saint.....Still, it's nice to finally meet you, Mrs. Yabuki. (Happily Bows to Shingo's Mother)
Ms. Yabuki: (Smiles Brightly) Likewise!~ (Clasps her Hands Together) I cannot thank you all enough for looking after my precious, baby boy in Southtown.
Shingo: (Starts Blushing in Embarrassment) Mooooom.....We talked about this. I'm not a little kid anymore......
Ms. Yabuki: I know we did, sweetie. (Uses the Edge of her Knuckles to Wipe a Few Tears Away From her Eyes) But it's so hard for mothers, such as myself, to accept that fact completely.
Mary: (Let's Out an Exhausted Sigh) Girl, I know the feeling! (Walks Over to Rock and Hugs Him) Our babies are growing up too fast....
Rock:: (Puts on a Deadpinned Look on his Face Before Sighing Again) You too, Mary?
Mary: (Pouts at her Rocky) Yes, me too! I helped your dad raised you since you were a little tyke and now here you are getting older as the years goes by and it's too freaking fast! I hate it!
Rock: Well, that's how life and reality works! Neither of us can change how fast time flies no how much either of us want to. (Smiles Softly) But even that won't change the fact that you're one of the most important people in my life.
Mary: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness) Rocky......You're important to me too~ Always~ (Gives Rock a Kiss on the Cheek)
Shingo/Kula: AWWWWWW~
Ms. Yabuki: So precious~
K: Too cutesy for my liking.
Mary: Awww K'~ Are you feeling left out in the Hugfest already?~
K': (Scoffs While Crossing his Arms) Yeah, like I'd ever wanted to be involved in some hug-!? (Immediately Gets Pulled into Mary and Rock's Hug Before Sighing) fest.
Rock: (Smirks Playfully) Admit it. You're loving this right now.
K': (Rolls his Eyes) Well, it's not inherently the worse thing in the world-
Kula: GROUP HUGS!~ (Happily Joins in on the Hugfest Along with Shingo)
K': .......But you people are pushing it.
Kula: Oh don't be such a sour puss. Group Hugs are the best.
K': Yeah, for losers maybe.
Shingo: (Smirks Teasingly) Well, I don't see you trying to break free~
Kula: (Starts Giggling Softly) Which makes you a loser too!~
K': ('Tch') Please. I'm way more cooler than all of you in this room combined.
Rock: Even Terry?
K': ESPECIALLY Terry.
Mary: Yeah, right!
Kula: Get real!
Shingo: He's the Legendary Wolf for a reason, you know!?
Mrs. Yabuki giggles softly at the group's back and forth banter until a doorbell is heard in the house.
Mary: Huh. Looks like we got company.
K': Someone get the door.
Everyone: Not it!
K': (Puts on a Sly Smirk) Not it.
Rock: You did that on purpose, didn't you?
K': Yep. Now, get off, losers.
Everyone else groans and reluctantly breaks up the group hug as K' makes his way to the door.
K': (Opens the Door) Welcome to the Losers residence, with the expectation of yours truly.
Rock: (From the Room) Delusion will get you nowhere!
Leona: (Standing in Front of the Doorway as She Casually Crosses her Arms) K' Dash. Good to see you're still as blunt as always.
K': (Shrugs) Yeah, well, being around these dorks almost everyday will do that to ya. What brings you here?
Leona: I was given a free time to myself from the colonel, for the rest of the day and decided to spend the rest of it with you guys, if you're not too busy that is.
K': Nah. (Points at the Room Behind Him) We're not doing much either, except meeting Shingo's mom for the first time.
Leona: Wait......(Lowers Her Arms as Her Eyes Slowly Begins to Widened in Fear at the Realization) Shingo-Kun's mother is here!?
K': (Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) I mean, I wouldn't say she's here's physically if that's what you're worried about. We're only talking to her on video chat. (Turns Back to Leona as He Raises an Eyebrow) What are you doing?
Leona: (Straightens Up her Hair and Tidying the Clothes She's Wearing in a Bit of a Panicked State) H-How do I look? Decent? Above average? (Turbs Back to K') Remotely presentable!?
K': Relax, Heidern Jr., you look fine enough as it is.
Leona: Are you sure? I-I can run back and change of-
K': ('Sigh') Would you quit your worrying already? Of course, I'm sure. Have I ever been dishonest to you? On second thought, don't answer that.
Shingo: (Makes his Way to the Doorway) Hey, K', mom's about to tell us a story about- (Gasps Before Smiling at a Familiar Face in Front of Him) Leona-san!~
Leona: (Shyly Waves Hello to her Boyfriend With a Small Smile) H-Hi darling. I hope you've been doing well.
Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) I'm doing great today. What about you?
Leona: I-
K': Your homegirl here is getting cold feet over meeting your mom.
Leona: (Glares at Comrade) K'!
K': Hey, don't try and hide it now. It's way too obvious to ignore.
Leona: Well, y-yeah! But- (Catches K' Raising an Eyebrow at Her Again and Shingo's Now Worried Look on hie Face Before Sighing in Defeat) Nevermind. You speak the truth....
K': ('Hmph') Damn right I do. I'm the only non loser here after all.
Shingo: (Gives K' a Deadpinned Look on his Face) You're still going on about that?
K': (Starts Walking Back to the Room) Yeeeuuuup. And I ain't gonna stop either.
Shingo: Of course you won't. (Turns Bacl to his Girlfriend) Are you okay?
Leona: (Nodded To Shingo) I am. It's....just my nerves getting the better of me is all.
Shingo: Hey, trust me, I get it. I'm still nervous just thinking about meeting your dad one of these days in the future.
Leona: (Gives her Boyfriend the Cutest Pout Imaginable) Shingooooo!
Shingo: (Quickly Smiles Sheepishly) Sorry, sorry! I know you already told over and over again to not worry, but it's kinda hard not to when you got reminded to meet him in a month or two.
Leona: ('Sigh') I, again, apologize for that. (Scowls at the Thought of What Happened That Evening) It seems one of my superiors doesn't know the concept of keeping it to himself.....
Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah, but it was bound to happen sooner or later, so it's no harm done. mostly. (Gently Grab Hold of Leona's Hands) Hey there's no need to worry. My mom is one of the most sweetest person in the wholewide world, there's no way she would think badly of you.
Leona: Even if my confidence will begin to crack?
Shingo: ESPECIALLY when your confidence starts cracking. You are dating her nervous wreck of a son after all~ (Playfully Winks at Leona)
Leona: (Giggles Softly) I am~ And I love him very much.
Shingo: I love you too~ (Gives Leona a Kiss on the Forehead)
?????: Shingo honey?
The couple turns around to see the gang coming towards the doorway, with Kula holding Shingo's laptop, having it and Mrs. Yabuki face towards her own son.
Ms. Yabuki: Is everything alright over her- (Suddenly Notices a Blue Haired Girl Standing Next to Shingo) Oh. Hello, dear. Who might you be?
Shingo: Mom, I'd like to introduce you to Leona Heidern, my girlfriend.
Leona: (Properly Bows to Shingo's Mother) Pleased to meet you, ma'am.
Ms. Yabuki: (Eyes Begins to Widened in Genuine Surprise as She Coves her Mouth) You are his girlfriend? (Eyes Begins to Tear Up) My baby boi?
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Fear) Oh no.
Leona: Y-Yes. We've been together for quite a while now.
Kula: (Smiles Brightly) Four months to be exact!~
Mrs. Yabuki: Four months!? You moved here, made new friends, and got yourself a job at a coffee shop, and NOW here you are getting yourself a girlfriend for FOUR MONTHS!? Why are you growing up so fahahaahaaaaast!~ (Burst Out Crying)
Shingo: ('Sigh') And there it is......My mom, ladies and gentlemen.
Leona: (Giggles Softly) She seems to love her baby boi very much~
Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes) That she does. To an overbearing sense.....
Rock: (Starts Nodding to Shingo) I feel your pain, brother.
Mary: (Pouts at Rock Beside Him) Oh come on. I'm not THAT overbearing-
Rock: I learned how to rode a motorcycle for the first time with Terry teaching me yesterday.
Mary: (Slowly Turns to Rock With a Surprised Look on her Face as Her Eyes Begins to Tear Up as Well) R-Really?
Rock: Yep. Even got my license and everything. (Shows Mary his Official Motorcycle License)
Mary: MY BABY BOYYYYY!~ (Immediately Pulls Rock Into Another Hug as She Bursts Out Crying)
Rock: See? Same pain.
K': (Smirking the Whole Time) Admit it. You two love being Mommas' Boys.
Rock/Shingo: Shut up.
Ms. Yabuki: Leona, dear?
Leona: Yes, ma'am?
Ms. Yabuki: ('Sniff') I know this is too much to ask, but.....('Sniff') Would you mind hugging my only son for me please? ('Sniff') The very thought of him being far away from me aches my heart ever so~
Shingo: ('Sigh') Mom, it's not that big of a deal. We'll see each other again. Eventually...... And hopefully.
Ms. Yabuki: (Eyes Starts Watering Up Again) I hope so......
Leona: (Giggles Once More) I got you covered, Mrs. Yabuki. (Gives Shingo a Loving Hug) I've been wanting to hug him all day today, in fact~
Kula: (Givesthe Laptop to K' Before Joining in on the Shingo Hugfest) Me too!~ We love you, Shingo~
Shingo: (Let's Out Another Sigh Before Smiling Again) Love you guys too.

Mini Fanfic #1064: Finally Meeting the Sisters (King of Fighters)
10:34 a.m. at the Yabuki's Residence's Dining Room.......
Shingo: (Gently Rubs Leona's Shoulders as He Instructs Her to Breathe In and Out) Breathe in. Out. That's it, there you go.
Leona: (Takes Another Deep Breath Before Speaking) I'm sorry.....I wasn't expecting to meet one of your sisters so soon. Or ever for that matter.....
Shingo: (Smiles Softly) Hey, it's fine. (Starts Rubbing The Back of his Head Back and Forth) If anything, I should apologize for not mentioning them to you beforehand.
Leona: The thought never occurred to either of us at the time, so it couldn't be helped really. ('Sigh') Still, I hope make a good enough impression to them......
Shingo: Just stay as calm and level headed as possible and be yourself. I know you have what it takes to impress her because your name is Leona Heidern: a proud member of the Ikari Warriors and the one that stole my heart.
Leona: (Heart Begins to Melt in Happiness as She Turns to Her Boyfriend Next to Her) You really do have a way with words, don't you?~
Shingo: (Smiles Sheepishly) I really wouldn't say I have a lot if ways with words personally. But I do wanna make you happy.
Leona: You're already making me happy, by being here with me.
Shingo: And I'm not gonna leave anytime soon! I love you too much to do that.
Leona: (Giggles Softly) I love you too, darling~
Shingo: D-Darling?
Leona: (Eyes Starts to Widened Once She Immediately Realizes What She Just Said) S-Sorry! I was thinking about what sort of nickname to give you for the time being and that was the one that came to mind. I really didn't mean to blurt it out to you like that.....
Shingo: N-No, no! It's okay, really! I don't mind it at all! In fact, I think it's a great nickname for me.
Leona: (Turns Back to Shingo) It is?
Shingo: (Gently Place a Hand on Top of Leona's) Yeah. It has a nice ring to it. I....haven't come up with one of my own to give you yet, but I hope you like it whenever I reveal it to you.
Leona: (Smiles Softly) I'm sure I'll adore it very much, just as much I adore you~
The two newly begins to slowly lean towards each other for the kiss, until the sound of the door opening startles the both of them simultaneously before quickly going back to their spots.
Tsubaki: (Walks Out of the Bathroom as She Makes her Way to the Dining Room) Okay! Got my hair dried and done, now we can start our interrog- I mean, our talk~
Shingo: (Facepalms Himself) Tsubaki, can you please go easy on Leona-san here. She's nervous enough as it is.
Tsubaki: (Rolls her Eyes) I'm not going to scare her straight, Shingo. I just wanna have a nice chat with your girlfriend us all. Promise.
Shingo: (Raises an Eyebrow at his Older Sister) Rely? Then how come your hand is behind your back?
Tsubaki: (Looks at her Hand Behind her Back Before Quickly Moving it Away and Turning Back to Shingo) You're seeing things-Anywho!~ (Sits Down at her Seat as She Turns Her Attention Towards Leona) Let's finally get to know each other, Leona Heidern, is it?
Leona: You....heard of me before?
Tsubaki: (Happily Nodded) Yeah. Shingo told me quite a lot about you lately. Mostly about how strong, kind, and very pretty you are-
Shingo: Tsubaki!
Tsubaki: What? I can't help everything you tell me, Shingo. Your words are not my own, you know?
Shingo lowers his head down on the table and groans in frustration, all while Leona gently rubs her hand on his upper back and shoulder to help calm him down.
Tsubaki: As I was saying, you're among the few people around here he talks about the most. By the way, don't mean to go off topic for sec, but I love how your hair looks.
Leona: You do? (Gently Grabs The Side of her Hair as She Weaves it Down a Little) I haven't really done much to it besides wash, dry, and brush on most occasions.
Tsubaki: Hey, if it helps making it look this good, then you deserve every compliments you get. Meanwhile, mines gets more duller in each minute of the day....
Leona: (Smiles Softly) I'm not much of a hair stylist myself, but I think yours look good all things considered.
Tsubaki: Ermm.....I still say otherwise. (Smiles Softly) But I really appericate the compliment. And I can't tell you how happy I am to see my little brother find someone he could love and cherish. (Tears Suddenly Starts Appearing in her Eyes)('Sniff') So happy.....
Leona: Tsubaki-san?
Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes) Oh God, here we go.....
Tsubaki: Sorry....('Sniff') (Takes off her Glasses as Starts Wiping Away Her Tears) It's just so hard to see my baby boy growing so fast.....
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Disbelief) Baby bo- Tsubaki, I am literally the middle child of our family!!
Tsubaki: (Terafully Glares Back at Shingo) Yeah, but even before Naomi came into the picture, I always have to be the one watching over you and keep your out of every single trouble you SOMEHOW keep getting yourself into! Especially those King of Fighters Tournament you keep participating!
Shingo: (Immediately Stabds Up Frim his Seat) You do not drag KOF into this!!!
Tsubaki: (Got Up From her Seat As Well) ALREADY FEW SECONDS LATE ON THAT, TWERP! You always come home with new injuries and scars on your back!
Leona: (Scars?)
Tsubaki: (Pinches the Top of her Nose) And don't even get me started on that incident on the bridge!.... (Turns Back to Leona) He haven't told you about that yet, did he?
Leona: (Simply Nodded) He has. (Gently Grabs The Top of Shingo's Hand) And it worries me greatly.
Shingo: (Turns to Leona With Genuine Surprise in his Eyes) Leona, I-
Tsubaki: Exactly! Like, I know this is your passion and I'm proud of you for sticking by it and everything, but I can't go through a day without worrying about you 24/7! It's starting to get impossible at this point...
Leona: If it helps make you feel any better, Tsubaki-San, I've been helping Shingo improve his combatant skills as of late.
Tsubaki: You have?
Shingo: (Quickly Nodded With a Hopefully Smile as He Placebhis Arm Around his Girlfriend) Y-Yeah, it's true! Leona and I would train with one another whenever both of us have any freetime.
Leona: And he improved a long since then. He still has a long road ahead of him mind you, but I can assure you with upmost certainty that your baby boy is in your good hands!
Shingo: Yea- (Turns to Leona With a Soft Pout) H-Hey!
Tsubaki: ('Sigh') If you're really that certain, then I guess I have no choice but to take it to great value.....(Smiles Softly) Still, I'm really enjoying your company so far, Leona-san.
Leona: (Smiles Back) I enjoy yours as well. (Lightly Bows at Tsubaki) I hope we can continue to get along in the near futu-
?????: HEY!
Leona: (Turns to the Booming Voice With Confusion) Hm?
Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Grimamce at The Sound of a Familiar Voice) Oh no.....
Tsubaki: (Turns to the Source of the Familiarity) Ah, welcome, Naomi. How was the sleepover last night?
Naomi: (Standing in Front of the Front Door With her Hands on her Hips and a Glare on her Face) Peachy. (Points at Leona) YOU!
Leona: (Slowly Points at Herself) M-Me?
Naomi: Yeah, you! Are you the girl that's dating my brother right now!?
Leona: That....I am, yes.
Naomi: (Squints her Glare at the Blue Haired Girl) Then I only have one thing to say.......
Naomi slam one of her knees down on the ground and reach her hand out at Leona before asking.....
Naomi: Would you please do the honors of taking care of my big brother as his newly wedded wife!?~
'Dead Silence'
.
.
.
.
Leona: (Eyes Slowly Starts to Widened By Youngest Sister's Words as Blush Begins to Appear on Both of her Cheeks) W-W-W-W-Wife!?
Shingo: MY WHAT!?
Naomi: Your wife. Honestly, onee-san, try and keep up for once.
Shingo: (Comically Glares at Naomi) DON'T TRY AND GET SMART WITH ME, YOUNG LADY! EXPLAIN ALL THIS CRAP YOUR SPEWING RIGHT NOW!!!
Naomi: Isn't it obvious? Tsubaki and I can't keep you groundee forever, you know? (Turbs Back to Leona) You see, my onee-san is a very sweet and hardworking boy. But he's more clumsy, thick-headed, and reckless than the two of us in this house combined and it's really starting to get annoying actually.
Shingo's jaw dropped on the floor in complete disbelief by his little sister's blatant insults about, all whe his girlfriend is still flustered and confused by a very...very unexpected proposal she was given by her boyfriend's little sister of all people.
Tsubaki: (Smiles Brightly) But now that you're in the picture and judging by your looks, I'd say you're totally a keeper!~ So whaddya say? Wedding at the church? Forest? Sunset Beach? I can play the role as your Maid of Honor-
'THWACK'
Tsubaki: (Smacks Naomi Upside the Head) Will you knock it off already!?
Naomi: (Rubs her Head as Sje Winces in Pain) Owwwwwwwwww! (Glares at Her Big Sister) Geeez, Tsubaki, what the heck was that for!?
Tsubaki: To give you a reality check. (Crosses her Arms) You know as well as I do that these two are too young to engage in marriage!
Naomi: (Turns Away With a Pout) Oh please. It's not that big of a deal....
Tsubaki: It is to me, damnit!! Do you have ANY idea how mom would react if her only boy got married out of the blue like that!?
Naomi: (Turbs Back to Tsubaki With a Glare) She would be ecstatic! Like any parent would! (Forms a Sly Smirk in her Face) And besides, at least Shingo HAS someone to fall in love with, unlike a certain someone I knooooow~
Tsubaki: (Gritting her Teeth in Anger) And what is THAT suppose to mean exactly?
Naomi: I'm not gonna beat around the bush. You're boring, uptight, bossy, and a reeeeeal stick in the mud. If you keep this up, you'll never gonna get yourself a guy or girlfriend at this rate. Living the rest if you life alone with gray hair and wrinkles all over your face-
Tsubaki: THAT'S IT!
Tsubaki tackles her younger sister to the ground as the two get themselves into a headed scuffle leaving their only brother in a deadpinned state.
Shingo: ('Sigh') And they're off. Again.....(Turns to Leona) Are you okay, Leona?
Leona: (Takes a Deep Breath as She Calms Herself Down) Yeah......I think so.
Shingo: You wanna get out of here already? I doubt they're gonna stop anytime soon.
Leona: That will be for the best really.
Few Seconds Later Outside of the Yabuki's Residence.....
Shingo: I am so sorry about my sisters. They can be real headache most of the time, but they do mean well. In more ways than none......
Leona: (Smiles Sheepishly) That's okay, really. I'm just glad I had the opportunity to meet the both of them on a short notice. They're a colorful bunch.
Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes) Colorful is putting it lightly.....(Smiles Softly) But I'm glad they're taking a liking a to you. Now, I have to hope and pray that your folks would like me too.....
Leona: (Lightly Pouts at Shingo) Hey. What have we talked about earlier?
Shingo: ('Sighs in Defeat') Not to worry about it....B-But-
Leona: (Gently Holds Shingo's Hand) But nothing. There's no point into worrying about something so trivial as pleasing one's approval. (Smiles Softly) All I care about right now to is being with someone I love. And that's you.
Shingo: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness as He Gently Squeezes Leona's Hand) Same. So, now that we're out here, do you wanna maybe go by Rock's place for a visit? I'm pretty sure him and the others are probably worried about us as we speak Well, mostly everyone. I doubt K's ever worried.....
Leona: (Giggles Softly) I'd be surprised if he is~ But yeah, I'd love to. It's a date.

Mini Fanfic #1190: Muey Thai Scientist! (KOF X City of Wolves)
6:31 p.m. at Southtown's Local Beach.........
Rock: (Panting Exhaustedly While Sitting Down the Sandy Ground) Okay!......I think......NOW.....Would be.....A perfect time......for the both of us.....to take that break.....Don't you think?.....
Shingo: (Panting his Hands is on his Knees, Bent Down) Yeah.....A break......Sounds FANTASTIC right about now.....(Let's Out an Exhausted Sigh While Finally Sitting Himself Down) Jeeeeeez......I don't think I ever been in a sparring match that intense before........
Rock: Yeah, same here.....(Gives Shingo Proud Smirk on his Face) You were keeping me on my toes from beginning to end there, bud.
Shingo: You think so? (Picks Up a Bottle of Water) I always thought it was the other way around really. (Takes a Drink of his Water) Like, you're almost as fast and unpredictable as both K' and Leona combined the way you moved like that!! I couldn't even catch up with you for a few seconds there.
Rock: Speed has been one of my fortes in combat, not gonna lie. (Takes aDrink of his Bottle of Water) But that obviously pales in comparison to the raw, critical strength you've been hiding under those gloves of yours. Even saw sparks flying from off of them too-
Shingo: (Immediately Sky Rockets Himself Up From his Seat With a Very Surprised Look on his Face) SPARKS!?
Rock: Yeah, it was bright enough to nearly burnt my shoulder there. Not hard to miss really.
Shingo: Is it to me apparently!! Quick! What was the last move I made that you saw sparks showing off from?
Rock: Dokugami I think? Why?
Shingo: (Get into his Battle Stance) I'm about to make a presentation!
Rock: ('Sigh') Just don't hurt yourself, man.
Shingo: I won't. (Takes a Deep Breath Before Balling his Fist Up and Slowly Winds it Back) Doku..............GAMI!
Shingo delivers a strong right hook at the air......With no sparkles appearing.
Shingo: DokuGAMI!
Shingo delivers another strong right hook at the air......Still no sparkles appearing.
Shingo: Do...KUGAMI!!
Shingo delivers yet another strong right hook at the air......Still no sparkles appearing. Yet again.
'Wind Blows'
Shingo: (Frowns and Sighs in Disappointment as He Lowers his Stance) Ah man.....How come it's not coming out? Am I not doing thos right or something?
Rock: (Gets Himself Up From the Ground) No, your positioning has gotten more polish this time around. Maybe it only comes out when you try and hit something?
???????: Perhaps.
The duo looks up to see a girl dyed light pink hair with blue streaks walks out from behind a tall surfboard standing on the sandy ground.
???????: (Fixes Up the Glasses She's Wearing While Forming a Cheeky Grin) Heehee~ Or maybe!~ You may or may not unintentionally used up most of your inner Ki into creating that sparked punch of yours during ypur little sparring match, rendering you into to building it back up again from square one. (Shrugs) Either that or the breeze blew it away. Who's to say?~ (Playfully Sticks her Tongue Out to the Side if her Lips)
Shingo and Rock look at each other for a brief second before turning back to the girl in glasses, confused.
Rock: That's.....one way to put it.....Or two.
Shingo: Yeah. (Raised an Eyebrow at the Girl) Have you....been watching us spar this entire time?
??????: (Happily Nodded) Yep-Yep-Yep!~ I've strolling around the boardwalk of thistown and couldn't help but noticed you two were communicating with your fists and kicks from afar. So, I moasy my way to that surfboard there and hide behind it as I thoroughly examine the match more up close. (Happily Clasps her Hands Together) And can I say that how amazingly structured fighters you are in your own unique style!~ (Turns to Rock) Your cool, swift speed and defense....(Turns to Shingo) Your powerful blows and incrediable endurance and durability. (Sighs While Placing her Gabds On her Chest) Seeing them all play out the way it did was a sight to behold~ Makes me wanna get more better at my own techniques too.
Shingo: (Struck in Awe at the New Girl's Discovery) Woah......You did way more in-depth review of the match than I could even attempted on doing.
Rock: And you're a fellow fighter as well? Color me impressed.
???????: (Smiles Sheepishly While Blushing a Bit) Really? Cuz I tend to nerd out quite a lot when it comes to everything Martial Arts and Ki related. Should probably apologize for that by the way.
Rock: (Chuckles Lightly) Are you kidding? (Points at Shingo Next to Him) My best friend here is the biggest nerd I've ever met in my life! Trust me, you're no trouble to us at all.
Shingo: (Happily Sticks his Hand Out at the New Girl) Salutations, fellow nerd! The name's Shingo Yabuki.
Rock: I'm Rock Howard Bogard. Terry's long time student and now offical wolf cub. His words, not mines.
???????: (Smiles Brightly) Pleased to meet you both The name's Preecha, new around here obviously. I'm part time scientist and Muey Thai artist in training, trained under the great Master Joe, of course!~
Shingo: Nice to meet ya, Preech- (Eyes Suddenly Begins to Widened Along with Rock's) Wait a minute. You said Joe is your master?
Rock: As in, Joe HIGASHI?
Preecha: (Places Both her Hands onto her Hips) The one and only!~ We first met months ago at the Annual Martial Arts Champion's Tournament back in Japan. (Clasps her Hands Together as Her Eyes Starts to Sparkle) I was incredibly amazed by his skills and wind manipulation abilities, so I studied the arts of Muay Thai, did a few trial tests after pestering him into training me for a decent amount of times, and load and behold........
Preecha does turning sweep-like kick, creating a medium, pink and gold colored hurricane, zooming it's way towards a nearby sand castle. Instantly blowing it all away into dusts of sand in the wind once it made contact.
Preecha: (Fixes Up her Glasses Before Forming her Signature Cheeky Grin Once More) I officially became his #1 Pupil ever since.
Shingo: (Eyes Sparkled, Struck in Awe at What He abd Rock Just Saw) No way! Was that a Hurricane Upper you did just now!?
Rock: (Raises an Eyebrow in a Bit if Confusion) Looks likes it? I always thought you pull it off with only your fist.
Preecha: Originally, yes, but I figured since it has been one of Master's trademark moves, I've decided to my own original spin of the technique: The Cyclone Kick!~ (W.I.P)
????: Rocky! Shingo!
The trio now turn their attention to see Blue Mary making her way towards them.
Mary: Terry says he's waiting for us in front of the ticket booth, so we gotta get a move on- (Suddenly Notices Preecha Standing Next to her Two Boys) Oh, hello there. I take it you're new around these park?
Preecha: (Happily Nodded) Yep-Yep!~ My name's Preecha.
Rock: Turns out she's Joe's #1 pupil.
Mary: (Smiles Brightly) Nice to meet ya, Preech- (Eyes Suddenly Begins to Widened at the Realization) Wait a second. You're a pupil of who now?
Preecha: Master Joe.
Mary: ..............Joe.
Preecha: Yep.
Mary: Higashi.
Preecha: Uh-huh.
Mary: JOE HIGASHI is your master.
Preecha: The one and only!~
Mary: .........Hold that thought. (Takes her Phone Out of her Pants Pocket and Makes a Call)
Preecha: (Turns Back to Rock and Shingo with a Bit of a Confused Look) Is it....really that surprising to see him as my master to you guys?
Shingo: (Starts Rubbing The Back of his Head Back and Forth) Uhhh.....Kinda? As strong as he is, he doesn't really seem like the kind of guy who takes the time teach someone something.
Rock: Or take anything seriously for that matter. (Rolls his Eyes a Bit) Unless if it involves his relationship with that Lily girl apparently......
Preecha: Master told me so much about her during our break time. I wonder if they'll get married sometime.
Rock: If he narrowly escapes from her brother's wrath maybe.
Meanwhile at the Thailand Sacred Bathhouse
Joe: (Sighs Very Relaxingly as He Walks Out the Men's Locker Room) Man oh man!~ Hwa's wasn't kidding when he says this place us Heaven incarnate. I never wanna leave!
'Phone Buzzing Sound'
Joe: Hm? (Tales his Phone Out of the Pouch Poket From the White Robe He's Wearing Before Answering the Video Chat Call) Yello? The Champion of All Muay Thai speaking~
Mary: (Appears on Screen) Higashi!
Joe: (Smiles Brightly at a Very Familiar Face) Yooo Mary! It's been a while, how you been!?
Mary: Peachy as usual. Now, question: Is it true that you're a full fledged mentor now? With your own student and everything?
Joe: Indeed I am! Been a teach for a while now actually. A pretty surprising challenge at first sure, but it's nothing I CAN'T persevere. (Forms a Cocky Smirk) Pretty Impressive, don'tcha think?
Mary: I guess? It's more surprising if anything.
Joe: What's there to be surprised about? I have just as much qualifications for the teaching gig as your blondie of a boyfriend is back home, you know?
Mary: Dude, you're the most loud and unserious show-off I've ever met, so you'll have to excuse me for being taken aback her-
Joe: Yeah, well, you should color yourself impressed instead. (Points at Himself With Full Confidence) Cuz here on out, I'm the strongest show-off there! Ain't no one's gonna top that!
Mary: (Scoffs While Rolling her Eyes) Yeah, except Terry.
Joe: ('Scoffs') Please. I can take him and Andy on without trying.
Mary: Okay. What about Billy?
Joe: The same goes for him as well.
Mary: Ooh you sure? Cause I could've SWORN I remembered him putting you in a hospital bed that one time-
Joe: (Comically Glares at Mary) Oh piss off with that, tootz! He only got me by surprise, I'll get my revenge soon enough!
Mary: I doubt it. (Gives Joe a Darkened Glare on Screen) You're gonnato be wind up back in that same exact bed if you ever call me "toots" one more time.
Joe: (Starts Shaking in Fear) R-R-Right. ('Gulp') Noted.
??????: Master!!~
Joe: (Smiles Brightly as He Notices his Star Pupil Waving at Him on his Phone Screen) Heh-hey there, Preecha! Good to finally see ya!
Preecha: (Giggles Softly) Likewise!~ Are you enjoying your R&R day this evening?
Joe: You know it. I never been this more re-energize in a long while, I'll tell ya what! How's your research going along?
Preecha: Spendid!~ I think I've found myself a great discovery after today.
Joe: Sweet! Can't wait to hear all about it-
Spa Assistant: (Walked in) Excuse me, Mr Higashi, but I believe your schedule massage session has just begun.
Joe: (Turns to the Assistant) Already? (Turns Back to the Screen) Uhh O-On second thought, you think you could tell me all about it later? I have some....('Clears Throat') "Business" I need to attend to at the moment.
Preecha: (Giggles Softly) Sure thing, master. Have a nice, fun massage session!~
Joe: (Playfully Rolls his Eyes) Yeah, yeah, I will. (Points at Preecha) And you continue om your training and research of yours, young lady!
Preecha: (Quickly Salutes to her Mentor) Will do, sir! Won't let you down!
Joe: (Proudly Nodded) I know that's right. I believe in you. (Waves Goodbye to Preecha) See ya!
'End Call'
Preecha: ('Sighs Happily') My master is the greatest, isn't he?
Rock: (Rolls his Eyes Again) In the show-off department maybe.
Shingo: (Snickers a Bit by Rock's Remark)
Mary: (Gives Rock a Light Motherly Glare) Rocky. You're not wrong, but be nice to your uncle.
Preecha: (Pouts at Rock) Yeah, that's my master you're bad mouthing he- (Immediately Turns to Mary) H-Hey!
Mary: (Puts her Hand Up to her Face While Puttong on a Sheepish Smile) Just saying it like it is, Kiddo. No harm foul. Bit now that I got your attention, do you maybe wanna join the three of us here on a movie night? The more the merrier.
Preecha: (Smiles Softly) I'd love to, ma'am, but I have more studies I need to work on at the moment. But I'll see you guys again soon enough. Oh and Shingo right?
Shingo: Hm?
Preecha: (Smiles Brightly) I'm sure you'll be able to ignite the brightest of all flames someday. So don't you dare think about giving up just yet, you hear me?
Shingo: (Stares at the New Girl For a Brief Second Before Nodding in Agreement with a Smile on his Face) Loud and clear.
Preecha: Good. (Politely Bows to the Trio) Thanks for your time, byeeeeeeee!~ (Happily Waves Goodbye as She Starts Jogging Ger Way Out of thr Beach)
Mary: (Waves Back at Preecha) Later, kid! Hm. Nice girl. ('Sigh') Still can't believe she's training under Joe of all people.....
Rock: Yeah, but he seems to be doing a decent job of teaching her so far.
Mary: Yeah, I guess......
Shingo looks down at the palm of his habd before slowly and gently balling it up in a fist.
Rock: Shingo?
Shingo: (Immediately Comes Back to Reality Before Turning Back to Rock and Mary) Hm?
Mary: You doing okay there, kiddo?
Shingo: Oh, yeah. I'm doing good. (Smiles Brightly) Great even. That new girl just gave me the boost I need to work myself even harder next time I train. I'm sure my sparks will come out more frequently this time.
Mary: (Happily Wraps her Arm Around Shingo's Shoulder) And we'll be here to help you out every step of the way.
Rock: (Place his Hand on Top of his Best Friend's Head) Just as long as you don't go around overdoing and hurting yourself in the progress.
Mary: (Nodded in Agreement as She and the Boys Finally Begins Walks Out of the Beach Together) That's right. Your family, Saisyuu, and Leona are gonna have themselves a fitting party if they find out you try and do something crazy.
Shingo: (Pouts at his Two Companions in Between Him) What do you guys take me for? Some careless cat in the streets? I'll be careful!
Rock: (Chuckles Lightly) You're more like a reliable puppy if anything. We'll have our eyes on you, bud.
Mary: Count on it!
Shingo: ('Sigh') Fiiiiine.

Summary: This vampire already has bad luck on his side, yet he decides that his next prey going to be a certain redhead vampire hunter. However, the very little he knows how this encounter will end…
AO3 Link
It was a calm afternoon, the sky was dyed in light red and orange and a singly clouds hidden the setting sun. Nevertheless, the sunbeams has touched the rustling in wind tree leaves and other surroundings were dyed with such a mix of warm colors. As leaves were falling down, one of them has flied across the redhead hunter’s way back to the hut. It can’t be helped that he needed to sort out some business in Hunter Guild and getting more knives just in case. Besides, even today that witch may ask him go for another errand, so, maybe she could also craft a suitable weapon for that stupid vampire or at least enhance it with her magical powers.
However, another problem was - what could fit for Kyo? Swords or spears were out of the question, because this vampire doesn’t look trustful enough to be left alone with any of of these. More important, it would take not only too much of patience and time to teach how to use them. Mostly because it wasn’t the type of weapon, which even this hunter would pick in a battle. Knuckles? Nope, this brunette was still in his human form, so, he may not regained fully his physical strength. Besides, after his last encounter, Yagami wouldn’t entrust him a short range weapons.
In any case, visiting a familiar shop was unavoidable. Besides, maybe this time he could take Kyo with him, because it would be also great chance to test what this vampire is capable of. And so, after entering inside the shop, this redhead was greeted by a certain ebony-haired woman behind the counter, who seem to be busy with packing a few bottles filled with wine color liquid into smaller chest. Once she closes the chest and places it on lower shelf behind the counter, she asks Yagami ‘‘You’re back, hunter. That was quick. But it’s unusual for you going straight to the shop. Aren’t you going to check first how Kusanagi is doing?’’.
Iori just turned gaze for a moment and then he answers in serious tone ‘‘For now he can wait. Besides, it’s better to ask this when he is not around.’’ after giving a demanding look, this hunter continues ‘‘Do you need me to kill any monster or get any materials?’’, now he impatiently waits for the answer of this witch. Surely, Kagura didn’t expected this question yet she sighs and replies ‘‘You are being quiet helpful today. However, what have you planned behind this?’’.
Even so, this redhead clenches his hands into fists and cracks a smile, now he asks in irritated tone ‘‘So, you need anything or not?’’. No matter how it was amusing observing this hunter’s reactions, this sorceress nearly in singing voice replies ‘‘Well, since you being so voluntary, I cannot turn down your offer, can I? So, let’s see…’’, now she covers her mouth with her hand and lowers her gaze, after turning around, she quickly scans the shelves. Good minute has passed and when she turns back, she answers ‘‘It seems that I’m running out of one fine thread. Hmm, hunter, could you get me enough of spiderweb for making six rolls of thread?’’.
Yagami only rolls his eyes and back-fires ‘‘Why can’t you use the one from the corners of your shop? I see no difference, which type of spiderweb you should use. So, are you sure, you don’t need anything else?’’. It seems that this ebony-haired woman was not happy by this reply and she decides to counter-attack in calm manner ‘‘You see, you can get this thread only from one of rarer monsters. I’m pretty sure that you at least heard of Arachne creature. If no, then you should know that these spider-’’, this redhead closes his eyes and grits his teeth, after opening them, he interrupts in irritated tone ‘‘S-so, you want to tell that all I need to do is kill this creature and take the web? Fine…If so, then I’m taking that stupid vampire with me!’’.
Although, this witch asks in innocent tone ‘‘Don’t tell me that a hunter like you cannot take down a medium rank monster alone? Maybe it is a bit difficult task for you…’’, it seems Yagami had enough of this woman’s taunting and now he slams his both hands on the counter. As he frowns, he says in serious tone ‘‘Listen, Kagura. It’s not your business! I’m taking Kyo with me, ‘cos I need to see what he can do in real fight. Then I could get him a proper weapon and teach the basics how to use it. Besides, it would good practise for him as well…’’ while he gives a demanding gaze, he deeply breaths for awhile.
Chizuru patiently listens to him further. Apparently, the more he was keep talking, the more he sounded concerned ‘‘But what could suit for an idiot, who keeps non-stopping mentioning that he can only use fangs and nails, more important, he keeps claiming how he could use flames before he lost his powers…’’. Now this ebony-haired woman calms him down ‘‘First, return with the spiderweb, then leave the rest to me.’’, but Chizuru honestly asks ‘‘However, wouldn’t be easier, if you ask what kind of weapon Kusanagi would like to have?’’.
Surely, this redhead just widen his eyes at such a simple question and now as he turns his head away, he lowers his gaze. Of course, this witch only gives him a questioning look while he answers in lower tone ‘‘Because…’’ as he looks back, Yagami continues ‘‘Hell, like that stubborn idiot would refuse say what he wants! So, I’ll better give him after the hunt. Maybe then he would accept it…’’. After such a confession, Kagura was clueless what say next and now after sighing, replied ‘‘Anyway, I think I know what weapon might fit for him. But since you are here, why don’t you rest for awhile before the journey? So, just let me remove the barrier first or you prefer to get electrocuted each time?’.
The sun was hidden behind the forest and soon the first stars began to shine one after another, waiting for the moon to show up. When, the witch and hunter were near the door of the hut, Chizuru removed the magic barrier and told before leaving ‘‘I’ll return later. Today one important client should show up and take rare potions. So, if decide to leave before I’ll return, good luck and take care.’’ and with that she gracefully takes her leave.
Once this hunter enters inside the hut, he found Kyo lying in bed with a navy-blue color book resting on his face. Is this vampire was dozing out? Whatever it was, Iori addresses him while he was getting closer to this brunette ‘‘Enough of doing nothing, you stupid vampire. Get up.’’, surely, it got attention of this nocturnal creature, who now murmurs something as he removed the book from his face. Kyo just looked at this redhead with not so happy look on his face.
Certainly, that pesky hunter has a lot of nerves to disturb this brunette’s rest, and thus, he honestly shown his dissatisfaction as he speaks up ‘‘What do you want? Can’t you see that I’m busy? So, why don’t you, I don’t know, maybe grab for me some snacks. Besides, I hoped that maybe this book, which Kagura gave me, would help me to learn more about you humans.’’. This redhead hunter only closes his eyes and sighs, after opening eyes, he picks the book from a vampire and once he quickly examines it, he patiently explains ‘‘It’s only one of the volumes about the history of great demon outbreak in our world…Why would you expect to learn how we live from it? That woman could have found a better book.’’.
However, when Kyo sits on edge of the bed and stares at Yagami with innocent gaze, he objects ‘‘But there is mentioned about you vampire hunters as well. So, at least maybe that would help to learn about your kind and why are you acting like this…You know, I don’t get it why you hunters still protecting an ordinary people when even nowadays they still fear you and might treat you as our kind? After all, you don’t own them anything, it’s they who should be thankful for being able to rest peacefully!…However, what about you, Yagami? Are you doing this just for living or you have any other reason?’’.
Despite that this vampire gave such a curious and demanding gaze, even Iori’s poker-face was cracked and he replied in slight nervous tone ‘‘What is it with you, you stupid vampire? What’s with these questions? Besides, now we have to go.’’. However, this vampire did not give up and back-fires ‘‘Where? At least, first, I want to know why did you become a vampire hunter. You don’t look that you become a one just to feel a thrill of taking someone’s life away or having anyone struggling under your foot.’’. Not again…that vampire once again was using his alluring gaze and this redhead hunter was captured by it, so, all he could do is to listen further to this nocturnal creature without looking away ‘‘Do you hold a grudge against one of our kind? Are you seeking for a revenge? Or you have no choice, but to carry on the legacy of your clan and with the same weapon, which was passed to each generation, kill us?’.
While Kyo was patiently waits for the answer, Yagami immediately closed his eyes and turns his head away. Whenever it was a trick of the light or not, but even this brunette could swear that the hunter’s cheeks were slightly red. Nevertheless, after face-palming, this redhead fixes his hair and now once again, he facing this vampire. Now he explains to this brunette in serious tone ‘‘Why you have to do this? Stop using your charms against me, because you won’t win, you stupid vampire…Anyway, I don’t have any special reason. So, it was better than becoming an alchemist as father expected, even if mother was against his idea. But then she tried to push her path of living. Hell, I didn’t shown any interest toward pharmacy or medicine either! At least later on being raised and trained by that stupid hunter was better than that or greeting a pathetic fate as my parents did back in that day. So, eventually after long year training, I become a vampire hunter, because at least then no one could decide for me what to do like I was a rag-doll in someone’s hands…But enough of that! Get up! Because you’re going with me.’’.
Of course, after listening to hunter’s tale, this vampire become even more curious, because he felt that there was something more to it yet Yagami remains quiet about. However, this brunette smirks and second later he gives a smug look as he stands up. Now he thrust his chest forward and replies ‘‘Are you sure that it is all?…Alright, then keep your oh-so-tragic-and-dramatic backstory for yourself, Mister Vampire Hunter~ You know, now I’m even more curious and wanna know what you are hiding. So, if I need, I would annoy you until you fed up one day and then you are willing to tell me~’’ when this brunette places his hand behind his head and rubs it, he continues in more serious manner ‘‘Anyway, where are we going? ‘cos you sure look so impatient about it, Yagami.’’.
Finally, took long enough for this creature to behave himself, or so thought to himself this hunter. Now Iori calmly explains ‘‘We’re going to test your reflexes in practice. So, you’ll assist me on fetch quest, which Kagura gave to us. I hope that you’re not afraid of spiders, because we need to go deeper into woods where one rare spider lives and get a web from it.’’. Apparently, this brunette just chuckles and as he recklessly answers, he swooshes his hair ‘‘Hmph! Big deal!~ But why a big bad scary hunter like you can’t do it alone? But if you wanted to see how I masterly kick anyone’s ass and get all the glory, then why didn’t you said this earlier? So, show me the way~’’.
However, this redhead silently murmurs as he walks toward the door ‘‘go on, talk like this until you see these creatures, you stupid vampire…’’, but this vampire asks with slight indignant tone as he follows the hunter, who was about to close the door ‘‘Eh? What is it, Yagami? Speak louder, cos I can’t hear you!’’ and once they were outside, Iori turn his head towards vampire and prompts him ‘‘You better hurry up! Or do you want to be left alone?’’. Lastly, with the blessings of stars and silver moonlight, they depart to the journey…
