Chapter 4 Headless Chicken Chaos

Trivia #4: In case that Kuma couldn't use Amanozako to get rid of the ambushing Sorcerers, she actually prepared booby traps all over the house and requested a Cursed Weapon from Yaga

◑ ━━━━━ ▣ ━━━━━ ◐

Despite the confusion from earlier, the night went relatively well after they ordered some takeout for dinner. That was the most excited they've seen Kuma as she tried the variety of new food provided to her since she was usually only served the best of the best. And the highlight of dinnertime was absolutely how she discovered the existence of sweets. In Shoko's words, it was like Kuma's eyes became literal flashlights with how bright they sparkled as she took her first bite of sweets.

Then it was practically an all out war as she hungrily eyed the box of kikufuku Satoru was holding, silver eyes glinting sharply. Shoko was casually sipping on her coffee, knowing chaos was about to go down even as Suguru attempted to step in. And just on cue to her thoughts, the silver eyed female wasted no time to pounce on the Gojo heir who yelped loudly as he tried to protect his box of kikufuku. Suguru who stood in between them previously was of course, inevitably dragged in. Shoko was proud to say she pretended to not see his plea for help to her and instead continued sipping her coffee.

All she could see was a cloud of dust and their heads peeking out every once in a while, though somewhere in the deep recesses of her mind she could almost hear them screeching like cats. Poor, unwilling Suguru was trying to get out of their wrestling match to no avail while Shoko just watched like it was the movie of the century.

"LET ME GO YOU DAMNED—"

"GIVE ME THAT KIKUFUKU BOX YOU OLD MAN—"

"TF YOU MEAN OLD, LOOK AT MY EYELASHES AND SAY I'M NOT BEAUTIFUL AF—"

Shoko paid absolutely no mind even as she saw Suguru's imaginary soul floating out of his body and the male brunette was abruptly thrown out of the squabble. Skin white and pale as a ghost, Suguru laid still on the floor with blank eyes. Catoru strutted over to the Curse Manipulator, plopping down with a scoff beside him as it poked him mockingly for looking so weak. Though the brunette didn't bother to move even when Catoru was swishing its tail at his nose. His energy was fully spent from just being unintentionally involved in the sweets fight. Never a moment of peace indeed.

The white haired Sorcerer had the nerves to stand tall and dangle the box of sweets on top of her, pulling it out of reach each time she tried to grab it. He even smirked at her and called her a shortie. To which she retaliated with a hard roundhouse kick, and Satoru practically flew across the room and crashed into Suguru. Which effectively knocked out the breath out of Suguru and successfully K.O.-ed him. Surprised by the sudden crash, Catoru who was near Suguru screeched like a demonic cat. Its back was arching up hilariously as it jumped to its favorite human without hesitation.

And so Kuma who was laughing maniacally in an evil villain manner in the center of the room while the box of kikufuku held high as the sign of her victory, was soundly taken down as Catoru rammed to her and she was promptly knocked down to the floor with a groan. The box of kikufuku flew out of her hands dramatically and without a doubt, landed on the floor. Shoko could practically hear the dramatic music as Kuma and Satoru went rigid like statues and cracked away when they realized they lost their dessert.

It was safe to say that none of them won tonight. Well, none except Shoko who had it all on camera secretly. That was indeed the start of the blackmailing teasing album Shoko would cherish dearly. Not that they had any idea at the time even as Shoko dragged Suguru back to their dorm. The two sweets fanatics that were left alone sulked as they prepared to go to bed, Catoru following its owner silently but not before sticking out its tongue to his human carbon copy.
