Azumanga Daioh Get’s Real
By Anime Rebirth

Part 4

Kassie had left for school, She agreed to let them stay in the house as long as they were back in the garage before anyone got home. Osaka was busy looking at the fish in an aquarium. “Pretty.” she said. Tomo was looking at Piper’s anime stuff. “WOW LUPIN THE 3RD…..” I’ve been looking for this DVD. “Don’t touch anything Tomo, remember what Kassie said.” Yomi warned.

“Aw you worry too much Yomi.” Tomo reassured her. “Besides, I’m only gonna have a quick look at it…now where’s a DVD player…..”

Meanwhile back in the living room, Sakaki, Chiyo, and Kaorin were busy watching something on TV. “I never knew Hospitals could be so romantic.” Kaorin said. “Mmmm.” Sakaki answered as she nodded. Chiyo seemed confused by what was taking place on TV. “For a hospital, they sure do kiss a lot, yuck.”

“Oh Chiyo, you’re too young to understand about love.” her eyes started to twinkle. “When you love somebody you feel like you floating on air, like if nothing else matters.” Sakaki was taken aback by what Kaorin was saying. “When you’re in love you feel like you can take anything in life without question, so believe me Chiyo, one day when you get older, you will understand what love truly is.”

“In that case I wish I could just be a little girl forever.” Chiyo responded as she stuck out her tongue.”
-------------------------------------------------------------

Later that day the Azu-girls decided to surf the net to see if they could learn more about themselves. Since Kaorin was the one with the best typing skills, they decided to let her do all the searching.

“Now let’s see, what is it called again…oh yeah….AZUMANGA DAIOH….” okay then…let’s Google and see what we come up with.

Their jaws dropped when they saw all the listings about them. “Wow we’re pretty popular.” Tomo said. “Indeed.” Yomi added.

“Hey click on that one.” Chiyo said as she pointed on one that said “Azumanga World.” On it were the profiles of six of them as well as their two teachers. “Hey where’s my Profile?” asked Kaorin. She decided to go back and click on another site, once again there were profiles for everyone except her. “What is going on here.” she demanded.

“I guess you’re not that popular.” Tomo said as she smirked. Which caused Yomi to give her an evil glare. Kaorin started to feel unimportant. “I guess I’m not…..” she slowly stood up. “Look, why don’t you guys go ahead and continue to surf, I’ll be in the garage a while.” she then left.
--------------------------------------------------------------

Kaorin just sat down in the van staring at the floor. “Not only am I unpopular back home, but I’m unpopular everywhere.” she said as tears formed in her eyes. “Are you okay?” someone asked her. She looked up and saw that it was Yomi. “Hey Kaorin, don’t let those websites get to you.” Kaorin just continued to stare at the floor. “That’s easy for you to say, you guys have come out in every website so far.”

Yomi sat next to the crushed girl. “It doesn’t matter who’s on those sites or not, what matters is that you need to realize that there are those who care for you.” Kaorin then stared at her. “Like who….” Yomi smiled, “Your mom for one…. And I’m sure the teachers do to.”

Kaorin just gave a small smile. “Like Kimura-sensei?” Yomi just shook her head. “Now let’s not get carried away okay?” they both just laughed. “Thanks Yomi, I feel a little better.” Yomi smiled. “No problem.” Suddenly, Tomo rushed in. “Hey Kaorin, we found you on a website, come check it out.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------

As they returned to the computer, Kaorin started to read the site……

“Among the list of minor characters, we have Kaorin, who is involved in one sided crush on Sakaki…..”

“Kaorin, you have a crush on me?” Sakaki asked. Kaorin just stood there and couldn’t answer. “Wow Kaorin, you sure know how to hide stuff from us don’t ya.” Tomo added, which caused Yomi to clench her fists. “No…it’s not what you think Miss Sakaki.” Kaorin started to tremble.

“But it says so right here, you have a crush on Sakaki.” Kagura explained.

Kaorin didn’t know what to do, so she did the only thing that came natural to her when she found herself in one of her ‘Sakaki crazed moments’… she ran out the front door.

“KAORIN!!!!!!” Chiyo yelled, but it was too late. She was long go.

“That’s just great the one thing, Kassie tells us not to do and she does it, I tell you, that girl has no self control.” Tomo added. Yomi couldn’t take it anymore and then proceeded to give Tomo an uppercut…however in the real world…uppercuts can be very…very painful.

“AWWW MY JAW!!!!!” Tomo yelled in pain. “AUGGGGH MY HAND!!!!!!” Yomi winced as well.

“This is getting a little out of control.” Kagura said. “So what do we do?” asked Sakaki? “Chiyo saw that Yomi’s hand and Tomo’s jaws were starting to swell up. “We’ve got to get them to a hospital fast.”

“But what about Kaorin?” Yomi asked. “We have to worry about that later, for now you two need medical attention.”

Chiyo looked around. “Where’s Osaka-san?” she asked, suddenly she could smell something from the kitchen. She rushed in and saw that Osaka was in front of the stove looking in a pot. “Osaka-san, we have to go, we need to get Tomo and Yomi to a hospital and…..” she couldn’t help but notice that Osaka was doing something. “What are you doing?”

Osaka turned to Chiyo with her glassy eyed smile. “I thought that the water was too cold for the fishes, so I decided to warm them up a bit.” Chiyo started to tremble. “She didn’t.” she slowly made her way and looked in the pot, only to see the fish inside boiled to death. “eeep.” she said before she fainted.

Kagura rushed. “Come on you guys, we need to….CHIYO-CHAN!!!!!!” She then saw what Osaka had done. “Oh this situation just keeps getting better.” She quickly turned of the stove and picked up Chiyo. “You, follow me, and don’t touch anything.”
---------------------------------------------------------------
The girls then went outside “So now what do we do?” Sakaki asked. “I guess we hail a taxi or something.” the just stood on the curb, waiting for a taxi, but none came. “This is taking to long.” Sakaki said as she saw that Tomo and Yomi’s injuries were getting worse.

“Felf Fhat fo fe fo noew?” Tomo asked. “Huh?” Kagura asked. “I faid, fhat fo fe fo noew.” Everyone could see that Tomo’s jaw was so swollen, it was hard to understand her.”

“I’m really starting to hate this world.” Yomi thought.  Suddenly a police car drove up. An officer got out and stared at them. “Shouldn’t you girls be in school?” he asked. “Officer we got to get to a hospital, our friends here are hurt.” Sakaki told him.

“Okay then, get in and I’ll get you there.” so then our protagonists were off to the hospital.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later that day Kassie came home from school. She checked her cell phone all day, but there was still no messages from her grandmother. “Come on Grandma, please responded.” As she opened the door, she just stood there in shock. The computer was on, there were DVD’s all over the floor, and she noticed that the girls were nowhere to be found. “This is just great.” She went into the kitchen and saw the fish in the pot. “MOM’S PRIZED FISH!!!!!!” she clenched her fists. “OH THOSE IDIOTS!!!!!!” It was then that she heard a knock on the door.

As she looked though the peephole, she saw that it was an officer. She quickly opened the door and saw the azu-girls standing behind him. “Are you um…..Kassie-san?” he asked. “Uh yeah?” she answered in a nervous tone. “Well I found these girls standing outside on the curb, they’ve just come back from the hospital.” It was then that she noticed Yomi and Tomo bandaged up. “Well they claim they are here from….Japan to visit you.” Kassie just gave a nervous smile. “Yes that’s right officer.”  she responded. The officer seemed confused. “They really don’t look Japanese to me.” he replied.

“Actually…..” she quickly thought of an answer. “These are my cousins from uh….Iowa, there here for the big anime convention, you die hard Azumanga fans, they really get into character.” The officer just scratched his head. “I see.” Well tell them to be more careful when they cosplay, someone could get seriously hurt.” He then left.

“That was close.” Kagura said. “WHAT THE HECK DID YOU GUYS DO?!!!!” Kassie was furious. “AND WHY ARE MY MOM’S FISH SOUP NOW? AND WHY IS THERE A MESS OF DVD’S IN THE LIVING ROOM…….”  she looked around. “Hey, weren’t there seven off you.”

“Oh yeah about that?” Tomo said as her swelling appeared to have gone down. “You’re gonna laugh when you hear this.” Kassie just covered her face as she moaned.
