Edit 17/02/2009 – Well I'm up to chapter 16 and counting now! I was just rereading the first few chapters because I wanted to check a couple of things… I didn't really realise how shoddy they were! The thoughts are in single quotes rather than italics, there are spelling mistakes… it's not good. The story is alright though :) I got a beta reader at around chapter 10, so there were no more mistakes from then on, and the story is much more exciting in later chapters.
But anyway, just wanted to say, if you're reading this for the first time, please persevere with these not-so-good first few chapters, because the story/quality of writing gets a lot better!
Thanks for reading :D

"See ya later!" Sayuki slung her school bag over her shoulder, calling to her family before heading out of the door. Her sleek brown hair swung behind her as she skipped around the corner. 'School books, check. Lunch, check. Purse, check. Hockey stick, check.' She thought as she quickly checked her bag. It was Monday morning, and the start of a very important week. She turned another corner and noticed two familiar tuft of spiky black and brown hair.
"Hey Takeshi, Tsuna!" Sayuki jogged over and jumped on the taller of the two. "Hai!"
"Yo!" Yamamoto laughed, ruffling her hair. "Ready for the big day? "
"Uh-huh" Sayuki smiled.
"Did you do the holiday homework then? Me and Tsuna were just discussing how we didn't get it! Together we're the slow group! Right? Haha!" Yamamoto bumped Tsuna playfully, who laughed happily.
"Hah yeah, I gave it a go." She grinned. "You know what the parents are like!"
Tsuna nodded. "Uh, so what's happening today? Why is it a big day?" He said as they passed through the Namimori gates.
"They've decided on the members of the student committee, they're announcing who it is today. I'm running for head of the committee." Sayuki explained excitedly.
Tsuna gulped. "I thought Hibari-san was head of the committee?"
"Who?" Sayuki asked questioningly
"Nah he's just head prefect of the Disciplinary committee." Yamamoto cut in. "They deal with detention and handing out punishments, that sort of stuff. The student committee is more like the student voice, they organise events, sports and fundraisers and things like that." They stopped at the class lists. After a quick scan of the names it became evident that she was in the same class as Yamamoto and Tsuna.
"Same class this year!" she punched Yamamoto on the shoulder playfully. "I won't be in the first few classes though; I have to be there when they announce the names. The new council members have to be briefed and they get tours of the committee rooms, that kind of stuff." She couldn't keep the excitement from her face as she explained to them.
"Good luck Kikuchi-san" Tsuna smiled as Yamamoto ruffled her hair again. "Good luck Sayu-chan" He grinned.
"Anyway I'd better go. See you later Tsuna, Takeshi-kun!" She smiled before skipping off happily into the school.

Tsuna and Yamamoto were having lunch when Sayuki suddenly plopped down between them. "I'm in!" She cried happily before they could ask. "Head of the student committee!"
"Yo, nice one!" Yamamoto grinned. "It won't get in the way of baseball though?" He asked seriously.
"No I've made it fit around all the other sports and things I'm doing. Besides I have Hockey tonight." She said. "I'll still be at baseball practice as normal."
"Fuck, why do they both have to be baseball freaks?" A voice growled. Sayuki looked around to where the voice had come from. A silver haired male had just sat down next to tsuna, a threatening look on his face.
"Nice to see you too Gokudera-kun" Sayuki laughed. The grey-haired male said nothing, but muttered under his breath about stupid people and stupid sports.
"So that's how you know each other so well?" A voice asked. "You and Yamamoto I mean…" It was Tsuna. "Through baseball?"
"Not really," Sayuki answered, "We've been on the team together for a while, but it's through our dads that we've been childhood friends. "
"Yeah, my old man and her old man are best buddies! Known her since she was this high!" Yamamoto chuckled, indicating with his hand near the ground.
"I was never that short stupid!" She laughed hitting him with her hockey stick. Gokudera's scowl deepened.
"Just say the word Tenth and I'll take care of these two for you" He growled, indicating Yamamoto and Sayuki whose playful taps had turned to a fake punching match.
"Ehh, uh no no Gokudera-kun" Tsuna laughed uneasily. "Though I have to admit she is a lot like Takeshi."
"One of them is bad enough." Gokudera said moodily. "Let's get to class Tenth."
"Oh yeahh… I have to go to the briefing, they postponed it to this afternoon." Sayuki said, getting up.
"Whaat??" Yamamoto exclaimed. "That means you miss the whole day of classes! No fair!"
"Sucks to be you!!" Sayuki laughed, sticking her tongue out, though a worried thought sat in the back of her mind. Sayuki wasn't a particularly brilliant student; she often found her time taken up by more 'important' things, like sports. Her grades were acceptable but she is not overly intelligent. 'Is it really ok for me to be missing so much work?' She thought worriedly. 'Yeah I'm sure its fine, I'll catch up.' She shouldered her bag and hockey stick, waving to her friends. "See you guys later!"

Sayuki pushed open the door to the student council room. Several students were already sitting down, but a place was left for her at the end of the table. She sat down, smiling at the boy next to her.
"Hi, you must be Kikuchi-chan!" The boy smiled back. "I'm Yotsuba Kane, assistant head of the student committee. I guess I'll be working with you."
"Hi Kane-san, call me Sayuki! It's great that we'll be working together. I'm really excited!" She deposited her bag under the desk as the principal walked in.
"Welcome everyone, to the student committee. Congratulations Kikuchi, and Yotsuba on becoming the two head students. The rest of the people here have been elected as prefects, they will work under you and help you carry out some of your duties. Now, as a member of the student committee, you have a great responsibility to…" Sayuki felt her attention wandering. She'd always had a short attention span. "Here is a list of your current duties Kikuchi-san." A large thud was heard as the principal deposited a large stack of papers onto the desk in front of her. 'There's a lot to do' she thought absently. "I'll do my best sensei."

Later that week, Sayuki had settled in to her position nicely. She and Kane were finishing going through the club schedule for the term. "So we the student committee will meet in this room… the book club can go in classroom B-7… and the art club in A-3." She scanned through a list of societies and clubs. "Where do the disciplinary committee meet?" She looked at Kane. "They've been crossed out but we haven't assigned them a room yet…"
"Uh I think we're supposed let Hibari-san decide where they meet…" Kane said nervously. "I think he's chosen the lounge in C… it's a nice place."
"Why does he get to choose?" Sayuki asked curiously. "He's the head of the disciplinary committee but only we arrange rooms and schedules." Kane looked like he'd said all he wanted to say on the subject. 'Who is this Hibari person?' She wondered. 'Why does everyone seem to be afraid of him? Maybe they think he'll give them detention…'
"I really think it's best to leave them in the lounge… Is that everywhere assigned?"
"Yep, I think we've got the times and locations fitted in nicely. Except for one… we need a room for the Yearbook committee to meet." She said. "How about the reception room?"
"No good," Kane replied. "Says here it's already being used for something… but oddly it doesn't specify what."
Sayuki looked at the time. "Well it's nearly the end of the day anyway; we could sort it out tomorrow?"
"Good Idea Sayuki-Chan. Have fun at baseball!" Kane chirped, swinging his bag over his shoulder. "See you tomorrow!"
"Later" She smiled, tidying away the last of the papers.
Sayuki wandered down the corridor, sports bag hanging from her hand and school bag slung over her shoulder. She paused as she walked past a polished door. A gold plaque adorning it was marked 'Reception room'. 'Might as well check it out, so we can sort things tomorrow', she thought with a shrug. Dropping her bags outside, she slowly pushed open the door. It's well oiled hinges didn't creak; everything about the room seemed polished and well taken care of. 'Well it seems to be vacant' She mused to herself. 'So why was it down as being used for something? Hah, maybe the student council should meet in here, it's so nice!' She took steps further into the room, admiring some of the artwork on the walls. A sudden voice startled her. "Who're you?" She whipped round to see a slender, yet solid, black haired male perched on a couch in the middle of the room. He reminded her of a crocodile: there was a definite threatening bite to his words but an arrogant smile played around his lips.
Sayuki replied calmly. "I'm Kikuchi Sayuki, head of the student committee."
The male's eyebrows raised a barely discernable amount. "And what are you doing here Kikuchi Sayuki?" The black haired male never took his eyes off her; it was as though he was trying to see into her mind with his glare.
"I… We needed a room for the yearbook committee." Her confidence increased as she remembered her purpose as Head Student. "It said this room was being used for something when it shouldn't be, so I came to have a look."
"This room is being used for the disciplinary committee." He stated matter-of-factly. "Is there a problem?"
Sayuki looked at the arrogant male incredulously. "Well…actually yes. The disciplinary committee already has a room, they don't need two." She said defiantly. The male stood up lazily and took a step towards her.
"I say we do need two rooms Kikuchi Sayuki." He said, a smirk playing about his lips. The way he said Sayuki's name creeped her out, but she also felt great annoyance towards him. Who did this guy think he was? She wanted to do her job properly, without anyone making life difficult for her.
"What gives you the authority to say that? Who are you anyway?" She frowned.
"Perhaps you should watch your tone in presence of the head prefect, Kikuchi Sayuki." Sayuki's eyes widened. 'Head prefect? He must be head of the disciplinary committee? This must be Hibari Kyouya… the one Tsuna and Kane spoke about…'
"You have no authority over me Hibari Kyouya." She said, trying to speak his name in the same threatening way he spoke hers. "In fact, as I am responsible for rooms assignments I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to vacate this room, and stay in the one assigned to you. "
Hibari's eyes flashed dangerously but a change in his facial expression was not detectable; the same smirk graced the handsome male's face. "Then perhaps I should bite you to death"
"Huh?" Was all she could say as she watched him swiftly pull out two slim objects from behind his back. A loud 'shick' echoed around the room as he clicked them together. His speed and dexterity showed the skill of an experienced fighter. HiHiShe gaped, realising what they were, as he swung one in her direction. 'What's with this guy?' Lucky for her, years of gymnastics and self defence training allowed her to dodge the blow, albeit clumsily. She stepped back, shocked. "What… the fuck?" Hibari smirked as he aimed another attack at her. She managed to dodge three of his dangerous blows - the third skinning so close to the top of her head that she could feel her hair flutter - before he paused. "Wao…" he smiled his crocodile smile, changing his stance ready for another blow.
This time the prefect aimed directly for her face. Sayuki held her arm out to meet the tonfa, unable to dodge. His weapon came into contact with the front of her arm with a sickening crunch, but spared her damage to her face. She gasped slightly, concentrating on pushing the tonfa away. Hibari merely smirked again, pressing a button on the slender weapon. Inch long spikes suddenly jutted out, piercing Sayuki's arm. She cried out as crimson red blood dripped to the floor, her concentration dropping. It was over as soon as she let her guard down. Within a split second she was pinned against the wall, tonfa at her throat. "H…Hibari-san!" She struggled against his weapon but he did not release.
"Now why do they always put herbivores like you in charge?" He dug the second tonfa into her ribs. "Want me to call an ambulance for you?"
"Get off me, bastard." She growled, as threateningly as she could, wincing in pain from the cold metal forced into her.
"Hm" Hibari yawned widely. "Whatever."
The head prefect suddenly removed his tonfa, allowing her to fall to the floor. Without giving her a second glance he left the room.
Sayuki gasped and gulped the air, rubbing her throat. Her arm stung where the metal spike had pierced it, but the blood was minimal. "What a… fucking jerk…" She mumbled between gasps, wiping her arm down with a crumpled tissue from her pocket. "And I'm late for baseball…"
When Sayuki reached the pitch the team had already begun running laps. "Sorry I'm late!" She called to the coach, before sprinting to catch up with everyone.
"Sayu!" Yamamoto bumped her as she caught up. "Where've you been? You said you wouldn't let prefecting get in the way of baseball!" He pouted.
"Sorry 'Keshi-kun" She said absently, pouting back. "I had some stuff to sort out, it couldn't wait."
"What sorta stuff?" He asked as they jogged along. "Did you know you're bleeding?"
"What? Oh cripes." She looked down at her arm to see small flecks of crimson coming off her arm as she ran. "Its okay" She said to Takeshi, who looked concerned. "Just a scratch" Sayuki felt no need to tell Yamamoto about what happened in the reception room. She wasn't particularly hurt, and more than anything she was embarrassed by the situation.
"Team, Move in!" There was a high pitched screech as the coach blew his whistle. The team jogged over to where he was standing. "Ok guys, you all know that a match is coming up soon, so I think for today we'll just concentrate on some of your weaknesses. Nakamura, Sato, I want you to work on…." Sayuki stopped listening as the coach assigned practices to each of them. The coach began to pinpoint techniques for the team to work on. Sayuki sighed, already knowing what she was up for. "Kikuchi!"
"Yes coach?" She smiled sheepishly. "I want you to work on your batting! I've paired you up with Yamamoto, he'll pitch for you." The coach shouted. Sayuki groaned. If there was one thing she didn't need, it was trying to hit Takeshi's super fast pitches.
"Cheer up Sayu!" Yamamoto grinned. Sayuki rolled her eyes. This was going to be a long evening.. .
