AN ENLIGHTENED POST
-------------------
Ah, yet another wonderful day in Nerima!
I wonder what will happen today. Will that dirty old man go on
another one of his panty raids? Will Saotome get himself into yet
another mess?
Well, the answer to both of those is probably 'yes', so I guess the
better question is, will I get to see it?
I swear, that Saotome kid is a riot -- again and again getting himself
into goofy situations that he could have avoided had he used a modicum
of forethought. Some might say that he was as stupid as a post, but
personally, I find that very insulting.
Oh, well. It isn't my problem. I just get to see it all, or, at
least, the part of it that happens in my general vincinity, and have a
good laugh.
Well, someone's coming. I wonder who it could be?
Oh, no... Please no... Not Hibiki! And, judging by his erratic
behaviour, that Tendou girl just said a kind word to him, too.
Great. Just f---ing great.
The last time I saw Hibiki, he hugged me. Oh, yes, there was a sign
there which specifically forbade any hugging, and I must admit, up
until that day, I thought it was a rather fatuous sign.
After that day, I saw the reason for it. Not that it did any good,
though.
DAMN IT!!! He's doing it again! Kami, will you answer me, just how
the hell did that kid get so bloody strong?
Again, I feel him crushing the life out of me, grinding me to powder.
Now he lets me go. Not that it matters much; the damage is already
done.
Now he starts to walk away. Well, perhaps 'silly walk' would be more
accurate. The inefficiency of his gait is really quite striking.
But wait! By the time I fall to the ground, he should be about...
And I'm falling in the same direction as he is walking...
KAMI, THANK YOU!!! REVENGE IS MINE!
Gathering up all the willpower (not to mention electrical power!) that
I can muster, I make slight adjustments to my trajectory to try to
maximise the force with which I will strike him.
I land directly on top of his head.
The next thing I know, I'm lying on the ground, with him standing
above me. He looks around, trying in vain to find his attacker.
Finally, he shrugs, rubs his head, and walks away, no doubt in the
wrong direction.
DAMN YOU, HIBIKI! DAMN YOU TO HELL!
Kami, why? Why did you give him a skull of depleted uranium? Of
course, perhaps the uranium wasn't quite depleted -- that would
explain a lot about his behaviour, wouldn't it?
Well, nothing to do now but wait for the public works department to
come and take me away.
But Hibiki, hear this! You may have won this time, but next time, I
WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!
