Azumanga Daioh Gets Real
By Anime Rebirth

Part 13

Chiyo and Kaorin were busy rolling Osaka (she still has the rollerblades on), to the nurse’s office. At first everyone was confused when they asked where the infirmary was.

“Are you sure she’s going to be okay Chiyo-chan?” Kaorin asked.

“Don’t worry, she’ll be back to herself in no time.” Chiyo assured her.

“And how can you tell what normal for her is?” Kaorin asked which caused Chiyo to give her a confused look.
---------------------------------------------------

The Jocks were still busy playing basketball, they seemed like nothing else mattered to them. Everyone was admiring the way they handled the ball with such rhythm, with such precise. It was then that a group of girls was walking towards them.
----------------------------------------------------

“You really don’t have to do this, I’m okay.” Kassie pleaded as she walked beside them.

“No it is not Kassie-san.” Yomi told her. “Those other jerks have been giving you a hard time have been thought a lesson so far.”

“And besides, you did end up patching things up with the skateboarders, right.” Destiny added.

“Look, I really appreciate it, but these are the jocks, the toughest of the tough, there is no way you can beat them.” Kassie seemed so worried about them.

“Don’t worry, if we can handle Kurosawa-Sensei’s gym class, we can handle anything.” Tomo said as she closed her eyes and smiled.

“Please stop doing that, it’s really starting to get to me.” Kassie warned.
---------------------------------------------

“Osaka-san…..Oh Osaka-san….” Chiyo was just poking her best friend in the head over and over.

“Still no luck huh?” Kaorin asked.

“No, but I think she is coming around.” Chiyo responded.

Kaorin just stared at Osaka and saw her glassy eyed smiling expression. “How can you tell?” She asked.
------------------------------------------
  
The Jocks saw the girls coming up to them, it appeared that a showdown for the ages was coming. “We saw what you did to the others, we won’t go down as easily.”

Destiny turned to the Azu-girls. “That’s Troy, quarterback and captain of the football team, almost every girl in school drools for him.”

“Allow you to meat my teammates.” Troy said with a smirk. “Meet Bob, Johnny, Templeton but we call him Temp, Ron, Will, Jackson, Emilio, Justin, and Mike….but we call him Tiny.”

The Azu-girl saw that Tiny was humungous. “Doesn’t look that tiny to me.” Tomo said as she gulped.

“So you gonna challenge us or what?” Temp asked.

“You bet, we’ll kick your butt in basketball.” Kagura said as she seemed anxious to get this battle started.

“Who said anything about basketball?” Troy said. “I think we should play something a little more…..tougher like say, dodge ball.”

The Azu-Girls huddled up……..
--------------------------------------------------

“So what do you think, can we take them?” Kagura asked.

“Well I guess if it’s a four on four we may have a chance.” Yomi explained.

“Well then let’s go kick some Jock butt.” Tomo said.

“Mmmmm.” Sakaki said as she nodded.
-----------------------------------------------------

Troy just stared at the Azu-girls. “You don’t expect to play in those little pink dresses do you?” he said as he smirked.

“THEY’RE SCHOOL UNIFORMS!!!!!!!” Yomi, Tomo, and Kagura said as Sakaki just stayed silent.

Destiny just stared at them. “He’s right you know.” she walked up to Kassie. “Better get them some gym clothes.” he told her.

“I still say this is a bad idea.” Kassie repeated her warning.
------------------------------------------------------------

“Birdies……” Osaka said as she was looking around.

“She’s coming back to us.” Chiyo said as she smiled.

“Osaka, are you okay?” Kaorin asked. Osaka stood up and kept looking around.

“Did we win?” the Osaken girl asked in a puzzled tone.

“Yes Osaka-san, you won and now the skateboarders are our friends.” Chiyo explained.

“Oh good.” Osaka said with a puzzled expression. “ ’Cause I wouldn’t wanna go that damn hill again.” Chiyo and Kaorin just laughed at the way Osaka answered them.
-------------------------------------------------

It was now after school and word spread about the big challenge…..

Sakaki……..Yomi…….Tomo…….Kagura, four girls on a mission, to restore the honor of one Kassie Lynn, their good friend who had helped them in this world that they ended up in, The geeks were humiliated, The dancers out danced, the skateboarders defeated. (which in a way was good because the borders have a new respect for them.) Now all that was left was their biggest challenge of all, to defeat the Jocks in a game of dodge ball.

They emerged from the gym wearing the school’s gym clothes. Luckily they had managed to find one in Sakaki’s size. The battlefield was the football field, almost everyone at school were in the stands, word had spread quickly about Kassie’s ’cousins from Iowa. (and the one from Texas) And how they were making a name for themselves.

“Well I’m surprised you managed to show up.” Troy said as the nine other jocks stood behind him.

“It’s gonna take a lot more than a couple of muscle bound assholes to scare us off.” Tomo said as she gave them an angry look.

“So are we gonna do this or what?” Emilio asked.

“Yeah just as soon as we find out which four of you are playing against us.” Yomi responded.

The jocks just looked at each other and then laugh. “Oh no you don’t get it.” Troy started. “You challenge one of us, you challenge us all.” he said as he gave an obnoxious smile.

“NO FUCKING WAY!!!!!!” Kagura yelled. “THAT’S IS SO NOT DAMN FAIR!!!!!!”

“Hey life isn’t fair, deal with it.” Johnny responded.

Everyone in the stands booed at the jocks. Troy just stuck out his hands and smirked at everyone.

“I think we’ve been screwed.” Yomi said as she began to sweat.

“You think?” Tomo asked sarcastically.

“So what do we do?” Kagura asked.

“We cannot back down.” Sakaki said as she stared at the jocks.
---------------------------------------------

Meanwhile back in the nurse’s office.

“And I saw my whole life flash before my eyes.” Osaka explained to Chiyo and Kaorin. “But I sure is grateful that everything turned out okay.

“If you saw your whole life flash before you, what exactly did you see?” Kaorin asked.

“Not much really, I’m only 17 you know.” Osaka replied. “My birthday is next month, I guess if we’d done this race thing then, I’d probably have seen more of my life then I figure.” Chiyo and Kaorin just shook their heads.
------------------------------------------------

Back in the football field, the jocks just kept staring at the shorthanded Azu-Girls, they had really set them up real good, soon they would prove that these visitors would not make fools out of them.

“Rules are simple, you get hit you’re out, you catch a ball, the person who threw it goes out and any eliminated player from your team comes back in.” Troy explained. “Of course since we clearly out number you 10 to 4, it really isn’t gonna be much of a contest.”

“MAKE THAT 10 TO 5!!!!!!!” The Azu-Girls turned around and saw Kassie who had just finished her detention walk up wearing gym clothes. “I want in on this payback.” Kassie explained.

“Are you sure you want to do this Kassie-chan?” Sakaki asked.

“Oh yeah, am I ever.” Kassie said as she gave a small grin.

“HEY HOW ABOUT WE MAKE IT 10 TO 6!!!!!!!” Destiny came up also wearing gym clothes. “You don’t think I’m gonna let you guys have all the fun.” she said as she smiled.

“Well, we still outnumber you, we’re gonna beat you in no time.” Troy explained.

“WELL THEN ARE YOU READY TO MAKE IT 10 TO 9!!!!!!!!!!” Troy just stood there in shock as he saw Nails, Otter, and Flyer walk up wearing gym clothes. Everyone in the stands started to cheer.

“Why are you doing this?” Kassie asked Nails.

“I asked myself the same question, and I kept coming up with the same answer……THAT THIS IS SO GONNA TOTALLY ROCK!!!!!!!”

Troy just shook his head. “You guys are such traitors, I’m gonna make you so suffer.” he warned.

“Bring it on.” Otter said.

Kassie just got into position. “Well, I guess this is it.”

“NOT YET!!!!!!” A voice came from behind them. They turned around and saw that it was Piper. She was wearing her gym clothes from her school.

“Piper, what are you doing?” Kassie asked.

“Word spreads fast around here, so when I heard what was going on I rushed over here.” Piper responded as she smiled. “So are we gonna kick some butt or what?” she demanded.

It was finally a fair match, 10 to 10. The Jocks and  ‘Team Azumanga’ just stared at each other.

The Girls PE Coach, Coach Lewinski was asked to be the ref in the contest, everyone in school loved her and they knew she would call a fair match.

“Okay everyone take your positions.” The coach said. The five balls were set up between them…. “BEGIN!!!!!!” And with that both teams scrambled for the balls.

Tomo managed to get to one and quickly threw it, hitting Temp eliminating him. “HAH I AM THE QUEEN!!!!!” she boasted which actually cost her as she got hit by Ron.

“TOMO YOU NUMBNUT!!!!!!” Yomi screamed.

Troy had a ball in his hand. “This one is for you Lynn.” he threw the ball at Kassie, but she managed to avoid it. “Too slow.” she said, but then she got hit by Emilio. “DAMN!!!” she said as she went to the bench.
----------------------------------------------------------

“So do you think the others are doing okay in their basketball game?” Chiyo asked.

Kaorin looked out the window. “That’s strange.” she said.

“What is it?” Chiyo asked.

“The court is empty.” Kaorin responded. “You stay here with Osaka, I’ll go see what’s going on.”
-----------------------------------------------------------

It was an intense battle, for the jocks, Temp, Emilio and Jackson were eliminated, for Team Azumanga, Tomo, Kassie, Piper, Otter, and Destiny were out as well.

It was a 7 on 4 battle. Yomi kept swerving to avoid the oncoming balls. She threw a ball at Justin, but he managed to catch it eliminating her.

“TEMP GET IN HERE!!!!!” Troy ordered.

Tiny threw a ball at Kagura, the impact was so hard it knocked her down.

“KAGURA!!!!!!!” Yomi yelled from the bench.

Kagura stood up slowly and trotted to the bench. “This is not looking good.” she said.

Indeed, things were looking bad, with Temp back in the game it was now an 8 to 3 advantage for the Jocks.

Nails turned to Sakaki. “An ideas?” he asked her.

“Not at the moment.” The tall girl responded.
--------------------------------------------------------

Kaorin was walking around the school, it appeared to be completely empty. “Where the heck is everyone.” She thought, it was then that she could here people booing. She turned around and saw the football field. “I guess that answers my question.” she thought as she headed for the field.
--------------------------------------------------------

Nails and Flyer both threw their balls at the same time, but Tiny and Justin caught them, Emilio and Jackson quickly came in. It was now Sakaki against all 10 of them. It appeared to be over. Everyone in the stands just watched. It looked like the girls from  ‘Iowa’ (and the one from Texas who was nowhere to be seen) Have finally met there match.

“So how about we all knock you into next week.” Troy said as everyone got into position.

“WOW WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE?!!!!!!” Everyone then noticed that Kaorin had walked out into the field. “This is sure a funny place to play a basketball game.” Kaorin said.

“Check it out, it’s another one of those pink dressed girls.” Justin said.

“IT’S A SCHOOL UNIFORM!!!!!!” Kaorin yelled.

“Tiny, shut her up will ya.” Troy ordered.

Tiny just smiled as she stared at Kaorin.

“No.” Sakaki whispered.

But it was too late, Tiny threw the ball with all of his might.

Kaorin saw the ball coming. “Oh shit.” she said as the ball hit her in the face.

“KAORIN!!!!!!!!” Kassie yelled. Everyone in the stand watched in horror as they saw Kaorin’s head turn as she blood and some teeth come spitting out of her mouth. The Azu-girls saw her falling as if in slow motion. They, as well as Kassie, Piper, Destiny and the borders quickly ran to her….. except for Sakaki who just stood there in horror.

“I’ll see that you are severely punished for this.”  Lewinski told the jocks.

“Hey the ball slipped.” Tiny said as he smiled at what he had done.

“Kaorin…..Kaorin speak to us.” Tomo said. Kaorin just stared at them. She was disoriented. They saw the blood coming out her nose and mouth.

“We’d better get her to a hospital.” Destiny said.

“So do you admit defeat.” Troy asked with an evil grin.

“Yeah, whatever.” Destiny answered.

“YEAH!!!!!!” Troy said as he raised his arms in triumph. All the Jocks just started to High Five each other.

Sakaki just kept staring in Kaorin’s direction, she saw how the Other Azu-Girls and the rest of the team surrounded her. She slowly clenched her fists. She softly said something.

“What are you saying booby.” Troy said as he smirked.

“I said……it’….not…..OVER!!!!!!!!!” Sakaki quickly threw the ball, hitting Temp so hard it knocked him backwards.

Troy saw the look in Sakaki’s eyes, they were full of fury. His spine started to shiver.

“Sakaki-san?” Yomi said softly.

“Don’t just stand there, get her.” Troy quickly ordered.

Jackson threw a ball at Sakaki, but she managed to catch it. “TOMO!!!!!!” she quickly yelled.

Tomo just shook her head. “Sakaki, we’ve got to get Kaorin to……” She felt someone tug at her arm.

“Go……beat those assholes.” Kaorin said softly.

Tomo just stared at her. “You bet.” Then she quickly ran to join Sakaki.

It was now an 8 to 2 advantage for the Jocks.……

Sakaki threw the ball hard and hit Justin, eliminating him. Emilio then threw the ball, but Tomo caught it as she came in. Everyone in the stands cheered. “YOMI!!!!!!!!” the wildcat yelled.

It was now a 6 to 3 advantage as Yomi quickly came in.

Will tried to hit Yomi but the long browned hair girl also managed to catch the ball. “KAGURA!!!!!!!”

Kagura just cracked her knuckles as she trotted back into play as everyone in the stands start to chant…….

“THEY’RE SCHOOL UNIFORMS…..THEY’RE SCHOOL UNIFORMS……THEY’RE SCHOOL UNIFORMS……”

Yomi just scathed her head at why they would be chanting that, but it didn’t matter because……

It was now a 5 to 4 advantage………

Kagura threw a ball at Ron, but he caught it.

“DAMN I JUST CAME IN!!!!!!” Kagura said as she scolded herself.

“TEMP GET YOU ASS IN HERE!!!!!!” Troy barked.

6 to 3 advantage.

Bob, Johnny and Ron quickly threw their balls to try and end it quickly, but Sakaki, Yomi and Tomo just smirked as they caught the balls.

Sakaki quickly turned to her benched teammates. “KAGURA, KASSIE, DESTINY!!!!!!!!” The three girls quickly rejoined their teammates.

And just like that it was a 6 to 3 advantage for team Azumanga. The crowd in the stands were going hysterical.

Kassie threw a ball hitting Temp. “Bye bye birdie.” she said.

6 to 2 advantage for Team Azumanga…..

Sakaki then stared at Tiny, the gigantic jock could see the cold look she was giving him, he broke out in a cold sweat.

“This one is for Kaorin-san.” Sakaki said as she threw the ball at his…..well balls.

Everyone in the stands flinched as they saw Tiny grab his privates and slowly fell to his knees.

6 to 1 advantage Team Azumanga.

Troy couldn’t believe, a moment ago they were on the verge of victory, now he was all alone….

Sakaki and the remaining members of Team Azumanga slowly walked towards him.

“So…..” Sakaki started. “How about we knock you into next week.” And with that the six girls all threw their balls and Troy. The impact was so hard that you could actually see his body shake like a bowl of jelly.

Troy just lied down on the ground looking upwards blood coming out of his nose. Sakaki knelt beside him. “How do you feel right now?” she asked.

“Like……shit.” Troy responded.

“Now you know how Kaorin felt.” Sakaki said in a cold tone.
--------------------------------------------------

Sakaki slowly walked over to the bench. Kaorin was sitting there, Piper was holding an ice pack to Kaorin’s head to keep the swelling down. “Are you okay Kaorin-san.”

Kaorin just stared at her. “Not really.” she tried to smile but her face hurt.

“Come, let’s get you some medical attention.” she held out her hand.

Kaorin just looked at Sakaki’s eyes, she could see there was something different about them. She slowly took the tall girl’s hand and slowly stood up.

As Team Azumanga walked off the field they could hear the roar of the crowd cheering them on.

This was a huge battle, a battle that was won with a strong bond of love…….
