CHAPTER #21

The Ninja and Sportster were fixed and ready to be picked up from Cobra's shop. The girls were excited to finally be on their own motorcycles. They rode through every district of S.W.O.R.D., in one big circle. On the way through Oya High area, near the outskirts, they saw a huge rumble. It was the high school guys again. The Twins exchanged a look and then pulled a U-turn and rode back to check out the fighting. Parking their motorcycles, they took off their helmets, then went closer to see who the other group was.


"I just texted Hiroto, to let him know why we're stopped and where. Don't need them thinking we're in trouble."


"That's smart Nori, but I want to find out who the other school is. I can't see Fujio and Tsukasa from here. Let's get closer."


Noriko sighed. It was a good thing they didn't promise the Amamiya Brothers that they wouldn't fight. They only promised to be careful. The Twins made their way along the street, keeping close to the buildings.


When Asuga saw Tsukasa she called out. "You want some help kicking ass?"


Jamuo replied first, in a high pitched voice, "I do!"


Tsukasa laughed, "if you ladies want to join us, go for it."


"Who are these other guys?" Noriko asked.


"Rindow High. They're from Toarushi area, outside of S.W.O.R.D."


"Why are you fighting them?"


Tsukasa dodged a kick and landed a punch, before answering. "Fujio loves to fight and wants to get at the Suzuran guys. We're practicing by taking out their competition first."


Noriko grinned, "that guy is ambitious! Where is he?" She used the two guys she had just downed, to stand on their bodies and look around.


"Making his way to their leader, further down that way," Tsukasa gave a head nod in the right direction.


"We'll help you get to him," Asuga vowed with enthusiasm.


Tsukasa couldn't decline her help and so shrugged and followed. He noticed Noriko was protecting Jamuo, since the guy wasn't the best fighter. When she noticed Tsukasa watching, she gave the blond a wink. The Rindow High guys ranged in size and seemed to be good fighters. They were surprised by facing the Twins; because they were girls and then because they looked identical. That worked to the Twin's advantage at first. The closer they got to where Fujio was fighting, the less the opposition cared.


"Who is the tall guy beside Fujio?" Asuga asked. "He's a good fighter."


"That's Todoroki. He's fought Murayama."


Noriko launched a knee into the guy attacking her. "I bet he lost against Mr. Murayama."


"Yeah. Twice."


Five guys rushed towards them, but suddenly Fujio was there, blocking anyone from getting near the twins. His fighting style reminded Noriko of Cobra, but Fujio threw a lot more kicks. He seemed fearless and she could tell why he was the leader of the full timers in Oya High. When the five attackers from Rindow didn't get up off the ground, Fujio let his focus land on the Twins.


"Did Tsukasa call you? It's not that bad of a fight."


Asuga laughed, "nobody called. We were riding in the area and saw you Oya High guys fighting. We were curious and so came to visit."


Jamuo was incredulous. "Who visits during a fight? Who are you?"


Fujio replied, "they're the Chiba Twins."


Unknown to the girls or the Oya High guys they were with, Hiroto and Masaki arrived to watch over them. "They're our girlfriends."


A whisper that escalated as it travelled through the Rindow High guys, held fear and reverence. "Amamiya Brothers and Chiba Twins just joined the fight for Oya High!"


Masaki teased, "got bored of fighting each other, so you're joining high school rumbles?"


Asuga punched a Rindow guy, who was wearing his school's jacket. "It looked like fun. We need the light exercise anyway."


"Stupid bitch, I'll make you eat your words!" The Rindow guy was tall and obviously not smart.


Before the brothers or Noriko could react, Tsukasa filled the guy's face with a beautifully executed one-two punch. The left hand jab rocked the tall guy back into perfect position to complete the swift right cross. It looked like a tree falling in a forest, as it was lights out for the shit-talker. More guys wanting to make a name for themselves, turned toward them. Fujio became concerned for the Twins' safety. He wouldn't let anyone come close to the Noriko and Tsukasa was by his side protecting Asuga. Hiroto and Masaki were amused and just leaned against a wall to watch. But as the group around them shifted, some fighters got through to the girls. Noriko was enjoying the fight until the guy who was trying to take her down, then she threw caution to the wind, as anger surged. Noriko head butted the guy and then crippled him with a knee to the groin.


"You're too pretty to do that king of thing. And you just had a head injury last month. Now you're bleeding," Fujio tried to scold, but didn't want to overstep.


Noriko replied by patting his face affectionately, "aren't you a cutie?"


Fujio wasn't sure if she was saying he was attractive and should protect his face too or if he was just sweet for saying that. Either way he glanced at Hiroto, who raised an eyebrow in reply. Forgetting about protecting himself, Fujio received a punch from the Rindow High's leader. "Pay attention asshole."


The Amamiya brothers were surprised that Fujio didn't go down. "You've got a strong jaw." Hiroto acknowledged. Then rotated his shoulders and moved his head side to side.


"Fujio your fighting style reminds me of both Cobra and Murayama," Masaki commented. "Those are two guys worthy of living up to."


Todoroki added his own opinion. "Cobra's a quiet guy. Fujio is mouthy and goofy like Murayama."


Masaki agreed and his attention shifted as he realized his brother was about to join the fight with the opposing high school guys. "We shouldn't fight kids. Fujio can handle himself." When it was apparent that his brother was ignoring him, he shouted, "Hiroto!"


Noriko grabbed her boyfriend's arm, before he threw a punch. "We got involved because we thought Oya High was outnumbered. It looks like they're about to win the rumble."


Asuga patted Tsukasa's ass and then waved good-bye. "I guess we're going. Don't forget to call and tell us who won. It's been fun."


Tsukasa looked anxiously in Masaki's direction, but the Amamiya brother in question was already walking back to his motorcycle. Hiroto and Noriko were doing the same, so Asuga ran to catch up.


"Let's finish this Shorty," Rindow's leader laughed at Fujio.


"Oh shit! You shouldn't have said that!" Tsukasa yelled, over the voices of the other fighters.


That was Fujio's rage trigger and he attacked the guy with renewed vigour. Using his slide attack he went for the guy's legs first. When Rindow's leader jumped clear, he punched the leg closest to him and it caused the muscle to constrict painfully. Grimacing, the guy limped around, trying to punch Fujio in the head.


Noriko turned around when Tsukasa had yelled. "Fujio is letting the guy punch his face, just to get in close and pound the shit out of liver and kidneys!"


Hiroto grinned, "now this fight is getting fun to watch. Masaki wait a minute."


They watched Fujio change his tactics and with his hands now close to the guy's face, he delivered lighting fast counter-attacks. He used a palm strike that landed squarely on the leader's chin, making it squish back like a cartoon character. Then followed that up with a forearm strike across the throat, using his whole body weight in the strike. Like any brawler, Fujio wasn't opposed to going for the eyes and grabbing the dude's hair, so his strikes couldn't be evaded easily. Rindow's king threw a straight punch at Fujio's face, but this time couldn't connect, because his arm was blocked and used against him, as Fujio pulled him down to deliver an elbow to the back of the head. It landed a little off and so didn't knock him out. That didn't stop the onslaught, as the two traded shots.


"Murayama would be proud. That kid must be close to 100 punches to the head," Masaki praised.


The finishing move that Fujio completed with style, was a kick where his heal landed at an angle that made Rindow's leader's head snap back. He was out cold. Tsukasa yelled and raised his fist skyward in celebration, as the fighting stopped suddenly. Fujio was tired and staggered a little.


Noriko was at his side immediately, helping him regain his balance. "That was brilliant. Are you okay?"


"Thanks. Just tired."


Jamuo and Tsukasa moved to take their king from the twin. Todoroki gave a nod to the Amamiya Brothers and Chiba Twins, then he and his two followers left. The other high school guys that were not part of Oya, lay where they'd fallen, groaning in pain.


"Make sure you put ice on your face or submerge it in ice water," Noriko said almost in a motherly tone.


"We'll take care of him. He's the champ after all," Tsukasa reassured.


Asuga came back to them. "She means you too."


Tsukasa blushed again and no bruise could hide the colour change. Before she could kiss him again, Noriko pulled her sister back to their bikes. The girls turned their keys and gunned the throttle to make the motorcycles bark. Then they pulled away from the curb and followed the Amamiya brothers, whom were already riding away. They couldn't catch up and the twins wondered if their boyfriends had become jealous during their exchange with the high school guys. Even though nothing was said, both girls decided to prove to their men, that no one else compared, in any way, to the Amamiya Brothers.
