The Night After(Yajuu Rina)

[EBISAWA]

Ebisawa stared at the mountain of food in front of him, his mouth salivating profusely. His sore muscle screamed out in delight as his stomach roared, ready for its feast. Without further wait, he drove his utensils into the food before carrying it to his mouth, letting the delicious, savory food slide down his throat. He didn't even finish chewing when he drove more food into his mouth, trying to consume as much as he possible could in one moment.

It was one of the side effects of using his techniques, he burns a lot of calories, and as such, had to spend time replenishing them. Not that he was complaining, mind you, he had grown used to it. It was just the price he had to pay for the speed he prided himself on having.

Ebisawa glanced over from the corner of his eye at the bed he had placed the unconscious girl from the night before. He had brought her here after she jumped onto his sword. He had to, well, change her, due to his almost OCD need to keep his bed clean, so for the time being she was wrapped in a towel. He was keeping an eye on her to confirm when she was finally going to wake up, since she had been passed out for awhile.

[YAJUU RINA]

Rina slowly began to regain consciousness. Her head was pounding; she could feel the blood pumping through her veins with every beat of her heart. She should probably make a trip to the hospital once she was actually up. How did I even get home last night? The last thing I remember was... Oh shit.

Something was wrong. Very, very wrong. The stiff mattress and thin sheets underneath her body was certainly not Rina's comfortable, warm bed. Something else was different, too. Her clothes. They were not on her body anymore. Instead, she was wrapped in a thin towel. I will slowly and painfully kill the first person I see...

That's when she heard what sounded like a wild animal stuffing its face after being starved for a week. Charming. Rina cracked open one of her eyes to get her bearings straight. Ceiling is up, floor is down... Disgusting pig-- ASSHOLE EBISAWA HIDEYOSHI STUFFING HIS FACE! Must. Slaughter.

Rina was obviously not in the right state of mind. Common sense went right out the window as she attempted to dive out of bed and onto the man shoveling food into his mouth. Instead of silently leaping onto him and slicing his throat like she had planned, Rina's foot had gotten tangled in the bed sheets and she tumbled onto the floor, successfully making a loud thump as to alert Ebisawa.

Fuck my life...

[EBISAWA]

Ebisawa watched out of the corner of his eye as the young girl flopped out of his bed, crashing face first into the floor. “Oh good, ya are finally up,” he said in between bites, “was startin’ to think ya damaged something’ when ya jumped on my sword. And while that would have been even more hilarious, I am in no mood to be takin’ lives.” He didn’t even bother making mention of the pouncing on him she was attempting. This was the second time he had seen her mess up due to nothing more than luck, and he wasn’t in the mood to push it. Luck ran out at some point, even for Ebisawa.

“Ya gonna pull up a chair and eat something’?” He said after a moment, food still half crewed in his mouth, “it is no good for ya to starve yaself after losin’ a fight.” He was trying to be inviting, but he didn’t really feel like being all that polite. He hadn’t forgotten that this girl had tried to hurt someone important to him last night, it was only out of the kindness of his heart that he had brought her back here. ‘She is damn lucky I am such a good guy. Most people would’ve left her in the street.’

[YAJUU RINA]

Rina pushed herself up from the floor, rubbing her cheek where she had oh so gracefully landed. That asshole. If it was any other time, she could have killed him right then and there. However, due to her obvious concussion, her mental capacity wasn't at peak performance. Stupid Ebisawa.

Rina stood up and dragged herself next to the man, deciding to accept his offer to join him. After all, she was hungry and it did smell delicious. She grabbed a pair of chop sticks and a plate, filling it with vegetables and some rice. She actually had manners when she ate.

When she had had her fill, she gently put the chop sticks down on the table. "So old man, why did you bring me here?" He really wasn't that old, she just wanted to insult him in any way possible. In her current state of mind, calling him old sounded like just the thing to crush his spirit. Rina reached across the table to grab something to drink, at that moment remembering what she was currently dressed in. She slammed her drink down and attempted to pounce on the man again, "And where the hell are my clothes?!"

[EBISAWA]

Ebisawa let out a laugh, still stuffing his face with delicious, delicious food. “Now now, would you rather I left ya out on the streets? I mean, ya seemed to be in bad shape after jumpin’ into my blade,” he began to explain, painting himself in a far better light than he probably deserved. “Consider it charity. After all, it is very rare for one to witness an act as stupid as someone jumping into a sword.” Ebisawa normally wasn’t this brash with women, but right now he wasn’t feeling like he should be kind towards her. She had attacked him just the night before. That, and she making feeble at insulting him.

“Well, I was gonna tell ya where to find some clothes, but since ya are bein’ so rude,” he added as he slide to the side to avoid the incoming woman, bowl of food still in hand. It was very clear he was enjoying this. “And to think I dirtied my bed with ya weak form. Not to mention getting’ rid of those rags for ya.” That really was all the man saw her clothes as at this point, anything else than the finest was trash to be discarded.

“But please, go ahead and flail around for me some more. I know I wouldn’t mind seein’ that towel fall off ya.”
