Story> Edible Eats, Ronin Treats
Part 1~ Bagel Bites: Breakfast
"Ah ~!" Kento murmured into his towel as he wiped his face off, "This day is going to be a wonderful one! Not to mention Sai has something so tasty down there! I cannot wait to see what it is!" Kento wanted to forget about making his bed, but he did not want an upset, mean Sai when he gets home. Being quick with his task, he pulled the big covers over the big mess and shoved the junk into the huge closet.
Kento chuckled about his "clean" room and then whistled out the door as if he had done nothing. Slipping on his jacket, he slid down the rails crying out a cheery "Good morning!" Looking down, he became very disappointed. Well… only at the beginning he was.
On his very shiny plate was a round, blueberry bagel, sitting there innocently. But after staring at it for a bit, he began to see it's fluffy and smooth texture and even the plump blueberries hidden inside it. Then again, Kento's stomach grumbled at the wonderful appearance of this little thing, as the bagel looked rather appealing. Going to the fridge, he brought out a cool glass of milk and set it diagonally from the bagel. Kento sniffed the sensational smell of this "delicacy" and was ready to take a bite when…
************
"YO KENTO! WHASUP?" a voice yelled, scaring Kento out of his skins. Kento looked around, desperately, for he wanted to bash that Sai for doing such a mean trick. But he did not see a brown-haired, round-eyed Sai anywhere.
"Is this a prank you are pulling? If it is, it is not fun!" Kento shouted back a little annoyed.
The voice of Sai's exclaimed, "ME? I am not that type of person! You dolt! Down here! I am right in front of your face!"
Kento's eyes peered under the table but there was still no Sai. Cocking his head, Kento bellowed, "You are nowhere under that stinking table or in front of my nose! I do not got time to play hide-and-seek!" Kento huffed and opened his mouth, ready to bite into the bagel when…
"KENTO! That is a dangerous thing you are doing!" Sai squeaked. "You are blind, Kento! I am down here!"
"Dangerous? You say eating a bagel is dangerous?" Kento growled. "Unless you saved this bagel for Talpa as a revenge, I am going to eat it whether you like it or not!" His teeth was about to sink into the bagel when something stopped him again...
"Back off!" Sai's voice called, "This is not funny!"
Kento groaned, "What now? Oh, I get it. This is YOUR meal!"
"Get real! Now why are you doing this to me?"
"Doing this to YOU? Why are you doing this to ME?"
"Doing that to YOU? You are a man-eating Talpa when you are with food! I got to say… but you better step aside, man."
"Says who? I WILL eat whatever and whenever I please!" Kento finished and brought his sharp teeth down at the bagel when something bit HIM. "OW!" Kento blurt out, as five blueberries shot at him like bullets. He then heard Sai call his "Super Wave Smasher!" Surprised, no blow of water came spilling down at him. Just when he thought he was hearing things, a big gush of milk came right at him face. Kento sputtered as he wiped the white liquid off with the tablecloth. "What was THAT for? Isn't a gush of water suppose to come out instead a gush of MILK?"
Sai's voice scoffed, "Milk is liquid too you know! Now listen to me!" Kento felt as something was wringing his neck. "You keep your objects to yourself! Whew… including your mouth! It stinks like crazy! Did you brush?" Kento was surprised that Sai was not in front of him and could see that he had not brush his teeth. His breath must have stunk the whole house. "And how much dandruff do you plan to accumulate? For Heaven's Sake, look at me, Kento!"
"How am I suppose to when I do not even know where you are?" Kento challenged, "You are nowhere where my eyes could see."
"Well look down."
Kento looked down, closely, but still did not see Sai. But what was different was that the bagel was standing on its side! Now how did THAT happen? Right when his eyes bulged out and he fell off his chair, two eyes appeared on the bagel. Rubbing his eyes, he looked carefully again to make sure he was not mistaking. There were those eyes again. Trying to comfort himself, he tried to think it as if he was imagining things, "Okay, this is a joke, right? You are pulling a huge prank that I have fallen into. Well, I give up 'cause this is scaring me!" He put up his hands in defeat.
The bagel then talked, "What's wrong? Am I intruding? I thought you liked me to cook you something tasty and wonderful! But I guess I am more appealing than the food!" Kento was not mistaking. It was Sai's voice and Sai's eyes! "If you were wondering, you may be wondering who I am since you make me seem like a stranger. I am Sai Mori and the Warrior of Torrent! Not to mention, my water turns into milk these days and I got no clue as to why!"
Kento observed once more, nose-to-bagel at the bagel. He then saw the eyes belong to a tiny figure. By gosh, Sai had turned into… not a blueberry bagel… but a CHIBI, BAGEL WARRIOR! He seemed to be very sensitive with Kento eating this luscious bagel like when he ate cooked fish!
"Well, look at the new me! I kinda like this, you know. It feels like the world is not yet crowded quite yet!" Sai commented, stabbing at a juicy, green grape from the side of him with his tiny spear. "See Kento! I could play the drums without loosing money! See!" He brought out his tonto [dagger] and started to rap at the small cup beside him. "Oh yeah! Not to mention, you could always have a filled tummy at the end of every meal!" Sai then sucked at the grape on his spear and slowly bit it off. With his mouth full, he asked, politely, "Wanna bite?"
Not believing his eyes, he pulled on his jacket. He had lost his appetite. Kento brought the glass of milk to his lips when he heard: "Step aside Kento! This is Dais, your wonderful roommate! You could spare your roommates' life, can't you?" His eyes became huge and with a murmur of "Oh my god" he dashed out the door without latching the door.
Sai: "Hey Kento! Don't forget…! *BLAM* That was so nice! He did not even say good-bye! What's wrong with humans these days, Dais?"
Dais shrugged and leaned back against the big carton of milk, "They spend too much time thinking about their stomachs. Anyway, it is much more fun to be a food warrior, you know? He probably does not know he will soon be like us!"
"Yeah… I cannot wait to see him at lunch. I hope he is hungry. I bet I will be able to hear his stomach from a mile away." Sai smiled.
