đš Kikyouâs eyes narrowed dangerously. Her body tensed in preparation to evade the retaliation, with hopes the carry through resulted in one of his sidekicks receiving the slap. Given the fact that they had her caged in, it may have worked in her favour. With the momentary lapse, she would have made an opening to escape.
Things, however, took a different turn when that âboyâ from her classes intervened. The term boy was used loosely, considering energy she detected from him. He was more than someone who had latent spiritual abilities. No. He was not human, which surprised her when he deliberately chose to speak up.Â
âOr what, pretty boy ? It is three of us verses you. Ya not very smart, are ya ? Just run along now. This is between us and this stone cold fox.â, he sneered vehemently. His eyes flickered back to his target, grinning foolishly. âIsnât that right, babe ?â The other two cheered in their stupidity, making the female sigh internally. All she wanted was to enjoy some time to herself, was that so much to ask for ? He didnât even wait for an answer before continuing to speak with the interloper. âI wonât ask again. Mind ya business and go away! She is ours. Go find ya own.âÂ
Irritation once again flickered across her smooth features. They were beginning to remind her of someone from her past, so cocky, arrogant and gave toxicity a whole new meaning. As a result, her patience thinned even further. Smug, they turned back to Kikyou, who was ready to inflict pain again if they dared to touch her. Again. âNow where were we before we were rudely interrupted ? Ah yes..a kiss.â
As much as he was hoping this issue could have been resolved with words, he knew full well his plea would simply fall on deaf ears as the three seemed to pay him no mind and continued giving the young girl a hard time.
While he wasnât fond of the idea, when push came to shove, Kurama was going to have to show in one way or another that he was not one to take lightly. As he approached the men from behind, Kurama gave a gentle tap on the shoulder of who appeared to be the leader of the three with the way he carried himself.
âLeave her be... I wonât tell you a third time...â
His voice had taken a sudden, more serious tone. While he had spent a long time building his reputation at this school of being someone who wouldnât harm a fly, these men were clearly underestimating him. Something he didnât take very lightly.
âYou know... I tried to be REAL nice to you Minamino. All you had to do was walk away. Now it looks like I got to teach you a lesson too!â The boy immediately swung his right forearm backward with enough force to cause some serious damage. Unbeknownst to the poor fool, Kurama was already a step ahead of him, as he gently side stepped the attack, and used his own momentum to send him falling flat on his face.
âI normally keep to myself, but Iâm sure youâll find that Iâm quite capable of handling myself in a fight.â
