Magical Girl Cherry Blossom - MG Prequel

Chapter 3 - Sato you Perv!

~~~ Sato and his offer

When the next monster had appeared, she had been slurping down some udon noodles at a stand she had found. There were stands all over the place, but this place was darn good and inexpensive. For some reason the guy behind the bar had given her a slight smile and tossed in a few more noodles. There wasn't anything creepy in the smile, so she settled for thanking him and settled down off to one side to eat. Right about the time she had finished the bowl she had felt the surge of a monster appearing.

That got a snarl from her since she wasn't in the mood to have a fight. To be honest all she wanted to do was sit here and relax. Hanma had given her the afternoon off from the training so she could recover. Of course, the damn monsters somehow knew this and came just to irritate the crap out of her. *Hanma I am going to beat the stuffing out of the damn thing. I am not in the mood for this. To top it off I was enjoying the udon.*

Hanma had to lightly grumble at her. *Remember to keep the swearing to a minimum young lady. I have to admit I am a bit miffed myself since I was looking forward to a quiet day off.* Even the MI's liked to have a day to relax and process data occasionally.

As she was thinking to Hanma she had dashed out of the shop and around back. She had glanced around but hadn't seen anyone, so she lifted the hammer up. "Activate!" She called out and felt the surge from the hammer. The moment she had said activate and the power started surging she heard a door open. To her horror it was the guy from behind the counter and he had a bag of trash in one hand.

As she was changing, he simply leaned against the door jamb with a smile on his face. By the time she was done changing she was feeling totally mortified. He had watched the entire thing and had even gone so far as to give her a smile and wink. For that alone he was going to die, and her hammer was going to be the instrument of his death.

Since she was so embarrassed, she flipped the hammer around and took off into the sky. *I am so going to go back and smack the smirk off his face right before I beat any memory of what he saw out of his mind.* The monster was going to get pulverized as well. If it hadn't been for the damn thing she wouldn't have to have changed and he wouldn't have seen her body. "God I can't believe he stayed there and watched." Currently she looked maybe twelve or so compared to her normal fifteen. That made it even worse.

Hanma was having a hard time not giggling at her reaction though she had to admit what he had done was wrong. At the very least he should have turned away from her while she was changing. *Just so you know he wouldn't have seen any details once the change really started. As you change all anyone other than you or another magical girl would see is an androgynous female form. There aren't any details for them to get really excited about.*

Sakura felt slightly better before frowning. "Okay but why do they have to see anything? Just surround me with a bright light and call it good." Even if it was just a female form with no details, she wasn't comfortable with others seeing her like that.

Hanma snorted. *I know you know what fan service is, girl. We give a bit of fan service to distract anyone who might see from paying attention to your face.* Personally she agreed with Sakura about showing their bodies off that way. It was the rules though and wasn't worth fussing about.

Sakura was still ticked when she reached the monster and as promised had gone to town on it. Once done she had headed for the roofs again and started heading back towards the udon shop. She knew this place normally stayed open later but for some reason when she arrived it was closed. It bothered her but between her senses and Hanma she didn't sense anything inimical.

It seemed the monsters appeared every three or four days which gave her time to recover. She would have said it was nice of them, but it would have been a lie. With each monster she killed it was like they were fine tuning the ones which most revolted her. Mind it was saying quite a bit since not all that much usually got to her, but they were starting to.
