Bankotsu story. My stories are usually rated T or higher, just so you know.




The scent of sake and beer caught my nose as I trudged the streets of Tokyo. My stained white tee hovered over my black jeans sloppy and uneven, but thats what I was, sloppy and uneven. A greaser wandering the streets, living downtown in the back allies, alway's watching my back for some rich bastard who had the urge to jump me for no god damn reason.

My brother Renkotsu and I lived together in a small apartment, our father died in a bar fight, some ass pulled out a heater in a fist fight, and my mother was probably somewhere...no where that I would know of though, most likely sleeping with a drunk for money on the other side of the world; I didn't care. I was the youngest one by two years, seventeen and pretty much held my own. Renkotsu was overprotective of me but he knew I could take care of myself quite well. I was gonna make it to the top.

"Bankotsu!" I stopped in my tracks and glanced over my shoulder to see Kohaku running up to me. He was sweaty and panting from exhaustion. "Thank god I found you." He breathed, standing up straight. He was about an inch shorter and his dark green shirt was splattered with oil, probably from working at his fathers car quick fix.

"Yo" I replied cooly, turning all the way around to face him. He pulled out a comb and brushed back his hair.

"Rina wanted to talk to you, said it was important, she seemed nervous. I thought I'd come deliver the message." He explained.

"I don't have time for Rina right now." I scoffed. Rina was my girlfriend. We'd been on and off for a long time. She never approved of what I did and had a good pair of lungs on her. I don't know why I'm still even with her...Maybe its those blue eye's of hers...They dazzle the **** outa me...

Kohaku sighed. "You heared the rumors right? About Rina having the hots for the new king of the Socials. I think his name was Naraku or whatever, big hotshot with a sweet ride." He oggled for a moment before making eye contact with me.

Blood boiled under my flesh. "No way Rina's got a slither of a chance, she's about as much a greaser as we are, no way she's even gonna get a glance by that Soc. Besides," I growled. "She's mine, she knows it, she wouldn't dare try and cheat." I grumbled.

"Maybe thats what the news was Bankotsu. Maybe Rina's calling it off...again..." He paused to gauge my expression.

"Well then...if thats the case the ***** can go take a career as a golddigger...it holds nothin for me. She'll come crying back to me anyway and then I won't take her." I stuck my hands in my pocket. "Now come on...Its getting dark and thats when those Soc's decide to go hunting for loner greasers like us." I saw Kohaku shudder.

"I swear, those guys hunt in a group, like a pack of bloodthirsty wolves...It sickens me man, sickens me." Ranted Kohaku as we made it into the ally way cutting through to get home.

"Kohaku, can you make it home or wanna crash at out place tonight? Renkotsu wouldn't care. He's probably gonna do double time down at the shop tonight anyway." I told him as I pulled open my door. It was a homey place, just where the guys could always relax and hang out.

"I'll stay." Kohaku said as he kicked off his boots. "Pa doesn't mind it, and Sango's crashin at her friends place too. Gives him a bit of time with Ma." He winked at me.

I laughed and threw him a soda. "Kohaku...I was thinkin about heading uptown tomorrow night." Kohaku was taking a sip of his soda, she choked it out. He wiped his lips and glared at me.

"Uptown? Are you nuts?! Renkotsu wouldn't approve...I wouldn't either! You'd be killed!" I sighed and starred out the window.

"Awe come on Kohaku, you know me I-"

"Yeah I know you, your reckless, stupid and persistant." He muttered as he tapped his fingers on the bottle.

"I can't keep living like this...On instant rammen and dating girls who don't give a **** about me. We follow rules we don't like and are always pushed down...I want to go uptown, to see King I want to see what its like, being at the top of the greaser pyramid, getting whatever you want cause you can, and having your own army to kick the Soc's asses...I want all that Kohaku...I need it."

Kohaku sighed and put his soda down, he stood up and came over to me placing his hands on both sides of my chair. He looked at me dead in the face. "Bankotsu...You got guts...No one goes and meets King on a whim. You could die...You may be a greaser but he calls the shots...If you say one thing out of place like I know you do...or you lose your cool for one second-"

"I won't" I vowed. "I promise. I'm gonna go up, see what its like and someday...I'm gonna become King and make it big, then me and you can sit on the thrown and laugh about how were living now. We can kick Soc ass and get rich. It's full proof!" I gleamed.

"Yeah Bankotsu we'll see...All your plans are full of something but not proof I'll tell you that much." He muttered. I laughed and threw my empty soda bottle at his head.

Wow no replies...XD I'll update anyway please, I'd like to hear your views on it...






I groaned and turned over, my eye's stayed shut as I pulled my covers over my head hiding from the morning sun.

"Bankotsu time to wake up and get your lazy ass out of bed." Sang Kohaku. I rolled over ignoring his voice. "Alright...be that way then." I felt an arm wrap around my waist and suddenly flip me off the bed.

"OW God damnit Kohaku! What the **** is your problem!" I roared getting myself up and untangled from the bed sheets.

"Renkotsu's up too, I had breakfast already so I'm gonna head home. Catch you later?" He asked. I looked up at him, he knew he wouldn't see me later and he still had a hope. I'd lie.

"Yeah." I muttered. He glanced at me one last time and left my bedroom. I got dressed and put on my favorite dark jeans and slipped on a snug, red sweatshirt over a black tee. I slipped on my torn sneakers and made my way to the small kitchen.

"Morning, sleepy head." Greeted Renkotsu while drinking coffee and reading the daily paper.

"Yeah, long night?" I asked while grabbing a muffin and the carton of milk.

"Yeah, sorry I didn't call, I thought you would have caught on...apperently you did." muttered Renkotsu. He flipped through the pages of the paper and stopped at a page, he took a deep breath and sighed nodding his head side to side obviously troubled by something he read.

Renkotsu wasn't as popular with the ladies as I was, he was sure smarter though. He wore his work uniform, grey and ugly. I thought my brother deserved better. I decided I wasn't going to tell him to his face I was going off to see King, he would tie me up and never let me out of the house if I did. I was his little bro, the only thing he had left, he wouldn't let me go so easily.

"I decided I'm gonna hang out with Kohaku today, maybe sleep at his house tonight if thats alright with you brother." I casually stated chewing my muffin."

He glanced up at me and back down at the passage he was absorbed with. "You know I don't like you staying at other folks places when you got a perfectly good bed here." He mumbled sipping his coffee.

"Awe come on, Kohaku's parents don't mind and you know I'll be perfectly fine over there. You baby me too much you know that?"

"Maybe I baby you because you're always getting your ass into trouble. Seriously Bankotsu I mean last week the cops drag you home for drag racing. I don't want my younger brother becoming a juvenile delinquent."

I sighed and stood up. "Where are you going?" Renkotsu asked curiously.

"I'm obviously not gonna win this arguement, so I'm going to go hang out with the boys." I snapped as I walked out of the kitched into my bedroom.


I grabbed a dark blue backpack out of the corner of my bedroom and started grabbing a bunch of stuff and chucking them in. Underwear, Shirts, Socks, Pants, all the stuff I needed. Once I finished I cautiously snuck into Renkotsu's bedroom across the hall. I lifted his mattress and snagged the 'rainy day' money he saved up just in case. 'Stupid Bankotsu! How can you live with yourself? Do you know how hard Renkotsu worked for this money!? Put it back you selfish fool!'
"Sorry bro..." I whispered, my tone full of remorse. I stuffed the money in one of the pockets and stalked off to the door.

"Be back at sundown squirt" I heared Renkotsu call.

"Sure thing!" I sighed and closed my front door walking off onto the sidewalk to call a taxi. I left behind the home I knew and strolled off to create the future that awaited me.

nicely written squirt XD

Who you calling squirt! :spooky:


Oh and for all you people who don't really know what a greaser is...It shall be explained xD

Not bad!

Thank you all for reviewing.





"Taxi!" I called in aggrivation. The yellow cab just drove past me splashing me while driving over water that formed a puddle on the side of the road. That was the eighth one today. "Damn it!" I roared kicking a rock that was motionless on the sidewalk. It was frustrating how people could look at me for less then three seconds and know I was a greaser. A scum. I wasn't one though...Renkotsu explained to me that it wasn't my fault, and constantly told me I wasn't a bad kid, even though everyone else told me I was. Something about auto sudjestion and hearing to many times I was a bad kid would make me believe I was.

I tried looking up the word 'Greaser' once, I figured it would tell me who...or at least who everyone else thought I was. Of course Webster didn't write up greaser. It kept me up a few nights knowing that I wasn't worthy enough to even make it into the dictionary. Renkotsu got mad at me for being so influenced by that stuff.

Going 'Uptown' doesn't sound like its to far away, but it sure as hell is, at least three hours with all the traffic and such. King was the man who made sure the greasers stayed in check and were given fair trial if ever caught by the cops. He was filthy rich but we respected him...he demanded respect. He never hessitated with killing a man and always had his way. He was past the government, they couln't bust him on his life. I wanted to make it big like him; his rich father may have been helpful for him to be as famous as he is now but he still struggled to gain respect and I Bankotsu, was willing to suffer for position.

I walked up the street absorbing all I had to think about. A loud engine sounded from behind me.

"Hey look boys! Its a lone greaser out to make the world a filthier place!" Now...Usually I'd be cool and keep walking at comments like that, however this time I stopped in my tracks and turned around looking at a blue Ford convertiblle with five Soc's riding in it. By the looks of it they were football players.

I was already troubled enough by the number of Socials but when I saw MY Rina sitting in the front seat next to a guy with long black hair and a smug smirk on his slimy lips...Now that really set me off.

I stayed silent as they all hopped out of their car and surrounded me.

"Well, well, well what do we have here boys." Stated the tall, black haired chump. He was obviously the leader, one hand wrapped around Rina's tiny waist.

"I don't know Naraku, looks like someone left a peice of crap on the side of the road." Answered an unnatural blonde.

"Lets take care of it for the good citizens of Tokyo." said another one eagerly wanting to inch closer.

"Alright boys, go ahead and clean this mess up." Smirked the one known as Naraku.

I immediatly took a defensive stance, I waited for them to attack.

"No wait stop!" Cried Rina from within Naraku's grasp. I saw his grip tighten around her.

"Whats the matter baby? Something wrong?" He looked at Rina with a confused look.

"Yeah Rina, whats wrong!?" I yelled at her. All the boys froze and looked at me and Rina. The glare in her eye's was intense when she looked at me.

"W-What are you doing this far from home Bankotsu?" She asked hesitant. Narku raised his hand to stop his group from striking me.

"That is non of your buisness you cheating little-"

"Kohaku told you already!" she yelled at me.

"Your just a low greaser looking for a quick buck, your loud mouth will get you nowhere! I can't even believe this guy took you!" I retorted. "Well" I continued spitting on the sidewalk "Don't come crying back to me when he has his fun with you and kicks you back in the neighborhood, I won't be there to stitch you up like I did when Mazar dumped you."

"Thats enough" Stated Naraku. "I'll talk to you later" He said looking at a now frightened looking Rina. He walked up to me and we stood head to head. "You have guts for someone up against six men." Stated Naraku with an edge of cocckyness. He stuck his hands in his pocket and pulled out a cigarette, igniting it he stuck it in his mouth and blew smoke in my face.

I smirked, "I don't count them as men if they are cowardly enough to go up against one man alone." I retorted.

"I was debating weather or not to punch you in the face right now and wipe that smug look off your dumb looking face, I decided not to though. I'm smarter to know when I'm up against a chump or not." He stated.

"I'm honored to know I'm seen as worthy by a bastard."

All of a sudden I felt a tight grip on my shirt as my back slamed into the brick wall beside me. I growled and raised my hand to punch him. "Get your filthy hands off me you fucking turd!" I roared and I swung my arm and snapped my knuckles onto the side of his head.

"UGH!" He winced in pain. The guys behind him were about to move in. "Stop!" He roared at them. "Listen to me you little fucker." He sneered at me in a way that sent shiveres up my spine. "This is Soc terf, I ever see your dumb looking face in these parts ever again, I swear I will tear you to shreds." He let his grip on me loosen as he let me go. "Now scram" He roared. I wasn't dumb enough to stick around. I heared him and his crew erupt with laughter as I ran up the street, just before I could turn the corner I saw him make eye contact with me and rub the side of his head where I had cracked my punch.

I LOVE THIS STORY!
But for some reason I dun like Rina.

Rina isn't ment to be liked XD

Good!
So I'm not a crazy Bankotsu fangirl then. xD

But...I do wan't Bankotsu to fall in love eventually...I just don't know who he should be with...no one from the series seems good for him...and non of my original characters work either...

Eventually you'll come up with someone. I remember how I never paired anyone up with Bankotsu for the longest damn time. The story behind it is kinda funny.

Wanted him for yourself? XDD I remember when I was a total Koga Fanatic...I still am but not as much lol I wouldnt pair him up with anyone either.

In a way, yes I did. xD But at around that time I wasn't so obsessive with Bankotsu.
Oh well, I still don't like Rina. ><

I hate her XD I needed to make someone I could totaly hate...Rina seemed preppy enough LOL

I would say make Bankotsu hate her enough that he kills her but it may not be suited at all. Or something.

*Innocent look* He could...accidently...kill her...

Push her off a building?
Accidently put rat poison in her drink?

I dunno, so many ways to accidently kill someone.

Well back in those times there was always a way to accidently kill someone..especially if you were a greaser or a soc..so...OH I have an idea *evil laugh* Its so predictable but so sweet it a bitter lemony kind of way (Not the sexual lemony xDD)

xDDD

YES!

Im gonna update so if I don't talk thats why...and you update Unforgiving Sins!!!

Oh I will.
x3 I have the perfect idea for chapter 34.

You and Michelle...whenever you two say I have an idea I get scared LMAO

"Ugh!" I roared, kicking the solid wall of the ally as I ducked inside it. Not a good idea. I grabbed my foot in pain and sunk to the ground rubbing it within my old sneakers. I leaned my head against the brick and took a deep breath to relax myself. I felt like breaking that Naraku's head. It was foolish to be angry though; I could have been killed, I was alive and that was most important.

It was getting close to sunset and I hadn't even made it uptown yet...I'd need a place to sleep but I couldn't spend my money on a hotel, it was to expencive to waste and I needed the cash for food. I had no idea how long I'd be wandering the streets.

Renkotsu was probably home by now...I could see him getting supper ready. Eventually he would start to pace around glancing at the clock every ten seconds wondering where I was. Then he'd call the boys. Once he figured out I never went to hang with them like I said, he would get Kohaku and his father to search for me...Then the cops would arrive. I pictured it all as I sat there in the ally leaning on my backpack for comfort.

I stood up and started walking. I would have to sleep behind a dumpster or something soon...I wouldn't be safe at night all by myself. I pulled out my switchblade which Kohaku gave me for my birthday one year.

"Happy birthday bro. Keep it with you...if they come close to hurting you, don't be afraid to use it. Its to protect yourself...nothing more, nothing worse then killing a man on purpose Bankotsu, nothing worse." (Kohaku and Bankotsu are LIKE brothers so Kohaku calls him bro)

I laughed and tucked it in my pocket. "I'll just keep it hiden from Renkotsu, I suppose its better then carrying a heater!" then I stuffed my face with the chocolate cake Sango's mother made for me.

The sun went down quickly tonight. I had no time to stare at the sunset like I usually enjoyed doing, I quickley hid behind a dumpster and drifted to sleep.

"Gah! Stop it UGH! Someone help me-!" I groaned and my eye's fluttered open

"What the-"

"Help!" I heared someone yelling. I scurried to my feet and pressed my back against the trash and peered over to see a guy getting beat up by two husky Soc's

"Take that you fruitloop!" I heared one of them yell.

"Kick his fag ass back to hell where he came from Leon!" Laughed the other one.

"AH! Its-Ugh-Your-fault-UGH-I dont't find-AH- your asses attractive..your both UGLY" Sneered the man who was now on the ground getting the crap beaten out of him. I couldn't take it anymore. I reached into my back pocket and flung my switch blade open...If I didn't do something the boy was going to die.

"Get away from him! Leave him alone!" I growled as I latched onto the clostest one's waist, bringing him to the concreite.

I started whipping him with punches and jumped to my feet. I felt a powerful pressure thrust into my stomach, the other one kicked me. I brought my left hand forward and jabbed the Soc's cheek with my blade causing him to stumble back and bleed.

"Son of a-" I pointed the blade at both of them with a smirk. Obviously these two had nothing on them.

"I'm not afraid to use it boys." I whispered suductively. "If you don't leave now I will kill you both cheerfully." Both of the guys stood up, the one I cut held his cheek in pain. Both of them had a frightened look on their faces...contemplating weather they could take me or not. "Your call...I don't mind...I've killed more Socials then all my fingers added together...adding another would only make me more confident about the blood stains on my blade...So how about it boys?" I slurred.

They both looked at me for a second and then turned around shoving eachother as they ran for cover. I sighed with relief and slid down on my ass. I put my knife back in my pocked and took a deep breath.

"Did you really do that...I mean kill more Soc's then your ten fingers?" Asked the man in a whimpy voice.

"No." I grinned looking at him. "I lied to get them out of here." He grinned back and sat up. "You ok?" I wondered looking for any sign of injury.

"I'm fine, I ducked my head in so I wasn't hurt..I'll probably have a few bruises, nothing serious." He smiled with glee and laughed. "Boi oh boi those two sure were ugly I wouldn't screw them for a million dollars."

I Looked at him with an uncomfortable feeling. "Are you sure they didn't hit you in the head too hard?" I asked him.

"Honey, I'm gay and proud! Thats why I was getting beat up" He laughed.

"So..your..Not a greaser?" I asked surprised.

"Oh goodness no! I couldn't wear that much gel it scares off the boys!" He stated matter-of-fact.

"Um" I honestly had nothing to say as I sat there dazed.

Holy ****...Was he leaning on my shoulder!? "You must be my knight in shinning armor honey. Thanks for saving me it was very, very nice of you." He purred.

"Um...Your welcome?" I answered with an edge of hysteria in my voice.

"So whats a cutie like you doing here?" He wondered stroking my shoulder. I felt sweat going down my neck...I was very uncomfortable. "Awe your nervous thats cute!" He cooed.

"Listen" I stated hopping up to my feet and backing away from him. "I'm not err..Homo?" I said, it sounded like a question. I heared him sigh and get up to stretch.

"Non of the good ones are" He whinned in a longing voice. He sighed and pouted. "Well then..You never told me what you were doing here hon."

"I'm going uptown to see King." I stated hessitant.

"Oh..I heared he was a toughy."

"Err...Yeah." I stated.

"Well then...Lets get some rest and go along in the morning." Stated the man as he brought his knees to his chest.

"Escuse me?" I asked bewildered.

"Well of course you'll take me with you, won't you? I'm all by myself and you saved me and all..." I sighed with guilt.

"Fine..."

"YAY! So cutie, whats your name?!" He gleamed and patted the ground next to him telling me to sit." I sat down and inched a little bit away from him. He unfortunatly noticed and inched closer.

"I'm Bankotsu.." I murmered.

"How sexy! Nice to meet you! I'm Jakotsu!"

"Take that you fruitloop." xD priceless.

XD I love Jakotsu LOL

Jakotsu and I spent the morning telling eachother about ourselves, he was a pretty cool guy. His parents were of "Social" status so he was pretty wealthy, they kicked him out after he told them he was a homosexual.

"I disliked them anyway" Rambled Jakotsu as he continued on about himself. I laughed as he made fun of all their flaws. "So Banky why you wanna go see this King guy?" Wondered Jakotsu, his new nickname for me was annoying...I had to deal with it I suppose. Jakotsu seems to be one of those guys who would keep doing something even if another person told them to stop.

"Well. I guess you could say I'm a bit power hungry." I stated as we sat in a little diner eating lunch. Of course I had to pay...

"Well I like men like you then. Women are so boring always going on about peace and junk. Now power hungry handsome men like you...Now thats what I love." He giggled as he popped another french fry in his mouth.

"You'd think you'd understand I wasn't gay after I told you a dozen times." I sighed sipping some coke.

"Honey I know you aren't...if you were I would have jumped you by now." He and I erupted in laughter. I pulled out my black leather wallet and set down 3 dollars on the table.

"That should cover the expence, lets get going Jakotsu." I said standing up. I was hot so I pulled off y sweatshirt and tied it around my waist.

"Banky, you could make it easier for me by not showing off your stuff." Jakotsu sighed longingly glarring at my chest and my muscle.

"Sorry" I smirked. "I just got a bit over heated."

"Well with me in the room..." I ignored the rest of Jakotsu's sentance, my attention was brought to the door.

"Awe crap! Duck!" I snapped at Jakotsu. I grabbed his shoulders and shoved him under the table and squeezed next to him.

"Goodness Bankotsu, if you wanted a cozy place I could think of a better one."

"Shhh" I whispered. All of a sudden I saw a waitress's feet walk to our table, it sounded like she was cleaning our food up.

"You three can sit here sir." She told Renkotsu and his two friends Ragnor and Brock.

"Crap" I whimpered.

"Whats the matter?!" I quickly covered Jakotsu's mouth with my hand.

"My brother" I mouthed to him. His eye's raised and I let go of his mouth. Renkotsu and his pals sat down at our table. Jakotsu and I squeezed tighter together. It was a good thing there was a table cloth here.

"So you haven't found him yet?" Brock asked.

"No, Kohaku's father and I looked for him everywhere last night." Renkotsu said painfully.

"Poor kid probably got jumped." Said Ragnor. All of them went quiet and Renkotsu growled.

"My kid brother...I told him millions of times not to go off by himself! Bankotsu is such an idiot! 'I'm going to see the boys Renkotsu'" He mocked me. "God..." I could picture Renkotsu's face right now, twisted with pain.

"Hey, don't beat yourself up about it Renkotsu, the kid probably got picked up by a girl or something." Ragnor comforted him.

"Boy" Coughed Jakotsu stifling a giggle. I scowled at him.

"You guys hear something?" Brock stated. We froze, someones fork dropped next to Jakotsu's hand.

"Awe damn. I dropped my fork." Ragnor sighed.

OH CRAP. Jakotsu and I glared at eachother wide-eyed. 'Were screwed' He spelt out with his lips

'Oh Yeah...' I replied silently.

Priceless.

xD Jakotsu was especially funny.

XD

O_O HOLY ****!

Sabine, this... this... this is a masterpiece! :excited: :victory: :kittylove: :cheer:


I may have said this a bit overmuch as of late, but:


FLAWLESS VICTORY! ^__^

There are too many priceless moments for me to quote that Saku already has!

Please update soon! ^^

o0...

^___^ I'm the non-weird one here. Add. XD

Non weird...Right Michelley xDD

SAKU NEEDS AN UPDATE NAO!

D<

xD

:glomp: I promise I will I got to go now though

See ya!

(This update is deticated to Saku! *Glomps*)


You ever have that feeling in your stomach when your so scared you feel like your going to be sick? I feel that right now. Even with how tough I am I knew I was going to be caught and trapt under Renkotsu's watchful stare the rest of my life. I couldn't let that happen...I wouldn't let it happen.

I saw Ragnor's hand start reaching down and I quickly made a move, Jakotsu was starring at me curiously yet anxiously wondering what I was up to. I grinned at him. 'Would you do me a favor Jakotsu?' I mouthed. He nodded when I shot my eye's at the fork.

'You owe me for this.' Jakotsu replied silently. I grinned and nodded.

'Whatever you want.' I promised. Jakotsu grabbed the fork and quickly stabbed Brocks leg. He yelped and jolted up knocking over everything on their table. Ragnor's hand disappeared as he bolted up as well.

"Brock you idiot look what you did! Ugh! I'm covered in coffee." Roared Ragnor.

"Me too." Whinned Renkotsu. I could see him from the corner of my eye wiping his shirt clean with a napkin and brushing at the stain with his fingers."I'm gonna go to the bathroom and clean up" Sighed Renkotsu.

"Yeah we'll come too." Murmured Ragnor in irritation. "God...Brock, now all of us are dirty."

"Sorry." He groaned as he stood up to follow them. "I could have sworn I was like bit or something." He stated following into the bathroom.

"Lets go!" I said running out from under the table. The waitress gave Jakotsu and I an odd look as we pushed open the door and started running.

Jakotsu burst out laughing as we turned the corner. The diner finally out of sight. "God Bankotsu, what kind of **** did you get your ass into?" He chuckled as we sunk down behind the slide in the near by park.

"Ugh, you don't want to know." I sighed wiping my forehead clean of sweat.

"Your brothers a cutie, but he's no comparison to you Banky...poor guy, you stole all the pretty for yourself." He mused. I laughed with him and moaned.

"That was just to close..." I slid my hands down the sides of my face.

"Boy! I have been looking for excitement like this everywhere! Bankotsu you sure know how to have fun."

"I wouldn't call that fun" I mummbled.

We stayed at the park the rest of the day. We came across a pack of Soc's with their girlfriends and stayed hidden, we decided we didn't want the trouble and would start heading uptown tomorrow.

It was sunset now, I had gone to a gas station and bought Jakotsu and I a few cokes and some chips and chocolate bars to eat.

I popped the bottle cap with my thumb. Jakotsu looked at me strangely. "How in hell did you do that? Those things are impossible to get open with out a can opener."

I smirked with pride. "My friend Coharu was in jail for a bit and he learned it from this guy. When he got back to the neighborhood he taught me the trick for my tenth birthday." I smiled remembering how painful it was. "Of course it took me a while to master it, I got a lot of bloody fingers, Renkotsu gave me a lecture. Since then I've grown a lot stronger and can do it with ease now." I took his coke and popped the cap. "See?"

"Wow, you sure have some good memories, some good friends too. And with that muscle you could pop anything" He dreamily stated. It sounded wrong...Oh well I laughed anyway. (XD)

"Sunsets sure are beautiful..." I wondered off lost in the different colors of the sky. I turned my head to see Jakotsu just starring at me. "What?" I asked defencive of his stare.

"You have a nice thoughtful face, I was thinking about how cute it was...and I thought your frightened look was sexier...Oh how I was wrong."

"Would you just get over the fact that I'm not gay." I grumbled chugging my coke down. I threw the bottle into the sandbox. Jakotsu and I were sitting up high in one of the rooofed tree houses.

"Remember this afternoon when your promised me you'd do anything I asked?" He mused for a minute.

"Yes..." I glared at him from the corner of my eye, skeptical. "I refuse to turn gay for your enjoyment, it just isn't who I am."

"Oh I know." He assured me putting his hands up. He wore a goofy face. His expression then became serious. "I won't bug you about it but, you have to do it since you promised. Last night when we stayed up talking you told me you were a man of your word and I believed it."

"What do you want Jakotsu!?" I urged him to get to the point.

"I want one kiss. One kiss right here" He pointed to his lips. "Then I won't bug you about it anymore. We'll be best friends after this. No...brothers." He said. He was intently looking at me. Starring into my eye's, frustrated he was waiting for an answer. We sat there for longer then five minutes in silence, the sun setting lower and lower.

"What!?" I gasped finally grasping what he was asking me to do.

"You promised, and there is no one around. It will never leave this spot right here, its between the two of us."

"Jakotsu I-I can't! I mean-I" I stuttered looking for the right words to say.

"Your to cute when your confused." He said sweetly. "Now make up your mind!" His tone shifted to harsh.

"I-I Honestly don't know..." I have never broken a promise before especially to a friend. Jakotsu even though it was a short time had turned into a brother for me. It was like kissing my brother!

"You can picture me as a hot girl if you want." He mused. "It will only take a moment." He slowly leaned closer gauging my expression.

'Oh dear lord what the Fu*ck have I gotten myself into!' I closed my eye's as he came within an inch of my face.

"What about it Bankotsu?" He stated seductively.

"Erm." I choked out. I was sweating and nervous.

I felt warm, yet cold lips slam against my own moving slowly but surely. I couldn't help but stay rigid. This was so wrong on many levels. It didn't matter anymore though. I kept my promise to my best friend, no, my brother. He pulled away and I heared him sigh.

"Now that wasn't so bad was it?!" He laughed. He had a glow about him that made him look accomplished and proud like he finally saticfied a irritating feeling or thought.

"N-No." I choked. I was holding my breath the whole time. I gasped and fell backwards. "God...Jakotsu I hate you"

"I love you two Banky!"

YAY! The two are in love. xD
Aww, it's dedicated to me? Thank you.
