A/N- Sorry for posting a little late I'm going on vacation soon so my I might not post a lot during the two weeks lol- Disclaimer- SPOILERS!!! Enjoy the chapter!
~~~~~~~~~~~~ Langa's POV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today's the day of the race ig. I'm kinda excited, but Reki says I shouldn't be. He says it's scary racing against Adam, especially since it's illegal racing and no one is stoping him from doing anything. But-that's the fun in it.
Reki was even more surprised when I told him I was planning to win against Adam. Why would I want to race him and not win? This is confusing. He's just a Hisoka 2.0 on wheels.
"Hasegawa!"
I suddenly hear someone shouting at me.
"Answer the question on the board. Lets see if you're paying attention!"
I look at the board to see the question.
"If Johnny walked 2,4568.90 kilometers in 30 minutes how much soap will he have to eat for each kilometer?"
What?- I thought this class was English?
"Well?" The teacher said
"I'm sorry sir I don't kn-"
"EXACTLY, stop daydreaming about girls and focus on the lesson." The teacher smacked me on the head.
I heard him mutter "yOuTh tHeSe dAyS" under his breath. That man would be in jail if this happened in Canada.
*RING*
Well that's the bell, finally to lunch, even though I feel like it's been days since 1st period started. I was walking until the thought that I would see Reki popped into my mind. I started running until I got to our usual spot. His class is closer so he's usually there before me. I get there panting and out of breath.
"Woah! Langa! Why are you running to over here so fast? Is an ogre chasing you?" Reki said looking behind me.
"Some-thing-HUFF- like that." I said taking a seat right next to Reki on the rooftop.
"Why do you look so glum?" He asks.
" I got yelled at by Akiyama-sensi for daydreaming in class."
"Yeesh, that man is mean. What'd he make you do?"
Reki has him for 4th period, and has spaced out plenty of times to know Mr. Akiyama always has to publicly embarrass you in front of the class.
"He made me answer a weird math problem in the board." I took a sip from my soda and took out my lunch.
"But doesn't he teach English?" Reki said with his mouth full."
"That's what I thought."
>>>>>>>>*time skip to after school*>>>>>>>>>>
I was walking home with Reki,skateboard in hand, and was thinking about how much homework I have to do. I was thinking if I should invite Reki over to do it together. The thought of him being at my house made me blush a little. Mom would so make fun of me for this-
"LANGA!" Reki yells.
"Yes?- sorry"
"I can see why you got scolded at school today for spacing out. What's on your mind?" Reki stopped walking and was Joe standing in front of me.
"Nothing much, just feeling a bit uneasy."
"I bet it's because of the race with Adam." Reki starting to walk again with a disturbed look on his face.
A race with Adam?-huh? What rac- Oh- that's not it. My kind of nervous is a jittery feeling. Not a worried nervous feeling. I'm kinda excited for the race to be completely honest.
"How about we ask your mom if we can go to the skate park before the race? You know.....to get some practice?" Reki rubbed his neck awkwardly.
"Sure why not" I said it with a smile on my face. I guess I'm just happy that I'm skating with Reki.
We went to the skate park and practiced some Ollie's and some tricks in case Adam decides to use his.
We went home trying to get ready before 12am. Since it's illegal skating it opens really late. I wore nothing fancy or different, just the same old outfit.
Shadow offered to pick us up, we said yes knowing that our parents can't drive us because it's a private skating area.
"So, you nervous?" Shadow brought up the race.
"Not really- kinda excited." I responded blankly
"You really excited to skate with that pedo freak?! I find him revolting." Shadow says. He's not wrong- but I don't respond to that.
Before we got to S we had to pick up Miya, Kaoru, and Kojiro. It was Reki's idea for us to all go together- but I'm pretty sure it was for us all to have a ride without worry.
We got to S and started walking towards the gate
"Sorry folks the track is closed because a tree fell!"
"But don't worry the races will be taking place on the other track."
The gate guard was pointing to a long pathway and if you look up you can see there's a road going through the mountains.
"What?!" Shadow yells.
"No way!" I hear from mini Cherry and Joe
It was a course in the mountains that was illuminated by these glowing dark colored crystals. But if you looked closer you can see there was an abyss in the middle.
"Is that really the track we're using for the race?" I said questioning Shadow
"It can't be! Let me call Joe."
He took out his phone and dialed Joe's number. All I heard was a gasp, "no way!", and " isn't that too dangerous?"
"Joe said something about it being the old S track." Shadow put his phone away.
"So it is true." We all look at Kojiro.
"This was the original S track that Kouru,Adam, and I used to skate on until the area got closed because it was to dangerous to go on or around."
If it was dangerous then, it must be extremely dangerous now. Guess a fallen tree won't stop Adam from racing.
I sighed and shook my head, preparing myself mentally for the tournament. While walking to the starting line I hear girls shrieking saying "SNOW!!!"
and "REKIII". Reki also raced against Adam and barely lost. He put up a fight and gave an extremely entertaining race.
We continue walking until we got to the starting line. It look darker than usual. There was a cross smack in the middle of the line. Everything was calm until Adam came out. He wasn't wearing his usual clown looking outfit. It was a skeleton one and his board was in the shape in a coffin- either way it didn't make him look or act any less of a joke.
"Hello little Langa." He gave me a bouquet of flowers, black ones. I took them and was about to offer them to Reki until I remembered they were black- and Shadow took them from me.
He suddenly noticed Kaoru and Kojiro were there.
He started skating towards Kaoru.
"My~ My~ My~ What are you doing here Kouru?" He said skating around him in a circle.
He put his hand on Kaoru's shoulder but it got slapped off by none other than Kaoru himself.
"Get the off me, you fucking disgust me."
We all looked at him with a shocked look in our face. Adam however just gave a frown and skated back to where I was.
Lets go to the starting line Langa, it's just up that hill." He put his arm around my shoulder and pointed up.
I sighed, leaving Shadow,Miya,Kouru, Kojiro, and- Reki.
"GOODLUCK!" Reki shouts as I smile.
We get to the starting line about to start until Adam started to speak again.
"Good luck Snow!" He came up close to my ear. "You'll need it~" (EWWWWWW)
A/N - OMG THAT LAST PART GOT ME GAGGING The race might not be exactly accurate, but I'm changing it to my liking (it won't be all different tho)
I just wanted to give y'all a pov from Langa- I promise that we will be back to Matcha Blossom in the next chapter or in the one after that.
