Wrote this this morning when I was starving.... so, kinda weird... ;D
Our mighty invincible dakkanya duo is currently sitting on a pavement, shoulders slumped, ad board and flyers scattered near their feet.
“Ban-chan...” Ginji calls.
“Huh?”
“I’m hungry,” Ginji informs soberly.
"I know.”
Silence for a while then, “Ban-chan...” Ginji’s stomach growls loudly like an angry lion. “Ouch! Itai yo, Ban-chan! Why punching?!” Pouting, Ginji rubs his nose and face.
“That’s for showing off!” Ban snaps, irritated.
“But I can’t help it, Ban-chan! I’m too hungry!” Ginji is close to tears now.
“I know you’re hungry, Ginji. I’m hungry too. But as Get Backers we must have pride! Even when hungry, we’re hungry with pride!” Ban apparently still has energy left to preach in full spirit and arrogantly.
“And hungry with pride is… how?” Ginji looks at Ban inquiringly.
“First, show tough face! No hunger can win over us! Second, never let stomach make any noise that indicates we’re hungry,” Ban explains.
“AH??! So hard to be hungry with pride! I’d rather be hungry without pride then…” Ginji mumbles. “Auhh!” Another punch lands on Ginji’s face. “Ban-chan, you’re so cruel...”
“Hmph! Shut up and take this hunger like a gentleman!”
“Huee....”
Ban growls and Ginji whimpers with lower voice.
Some stomach growlings later....
“Ban-chan, please get food...” pleads Ginji weakly.
Ban snorts weakly. “In case you forget, Ginji, we don’t have money to get any food,” he grumbles sarcastically.
“Then, let’s get some part time jobs....Ouch!!” Ginji strokes his head which got hit by Ban just now. “For once, let’s forget about pride as dakkanya and get some money to buy food.”
Ban sighs. “And what you have in mind relating to this part time job, huh?!”
“Well, we can be paperboy, milkman, waiter… OUCH!!” Ginji holds his head with both hands.
“Might as well sell ourselves!” Ban retorts.
“Hmm....” Ginji considers. “If there’s someone who wants to buy, then it’s not so bad, I guess...”
“Oh, so you think selling body is a great idea, eh!?” Ban sneers.
Not realizing that he’s sneered, Ginji replies, “Well, I hear we can earn lots money that way… imagine, Ban-chan, we can eat sushi and meat everyday!” Ginji’s eyes are sparkling at the thought of those delicious food.
“Then go sell yourself!” Ban exclaims impatiently.
“Eh? But I think it should be Ban-chan....”
“Why it should be me, hm?!!” Ban snarls with eyes bulging at Ginji.
“Umm....well...because Ban-chan is gorgeous...cool...has sexy body...” Ginji says cautiously with faint smile.
“Hehehehe!!” Grinning, Ban pushes up his sunglasses. “You really know me well, Ginji. I am gorgeous, cool and sexy!” Ban declares himself proudly.
“Eto....will Ban-chan do it, then?” Ginji asks timidly, hopeful.
“Heeh....” Ban’s eyes catch two school girls walking towards their direction. He gets to his feet. “Watch and learn, Ginji!” he says as he steps forward to block the girls’ way.
“Hello there, pretty ladies!” Ban greets, smiling what he thinks as charming irresistible smile widely.
The school girls stop and stare at him curiously, and then one of them replies, “Hel-lo..?”
Still smiling, Ban continues, “I believe pretty ladies like you deserve a cool gorgeous sexy gentleman as your lover....don’t you agree?”
The girls nod automatically.
Smiling, with satisfaction now, Ban says, “Well, seek no more, Ladies, because your prince charming has come!”
The girls are staring at Ban weirdly now.
“I’m your dream prince, Ladies! Midou Ban-sama!”
Weirder and weirder look.
“Why? You don’t believe that I’m cool, gorgeous and sexy?! Ok then, I’ll show you how sexy I am! Ta-da!!” Ban yanks open his shirt and the girls are instantly screaming “HENTAI!!” loudly while running away.
“Eh? Why screaming and running?” Ban scratches his head. “Well, you don’t know what you miss!” Ban shouts at the running girls’ direction.
Back to Ginji, Ban grumbles, “Those girls, they don’t know diamond when they find it....”
“Um...Ban-chan...” Ginji bites his lips nervously.
“Hm? What is it, Ginji?” Ban looks at Ginji inquiringly. Before Ginji can answer, there’s a tap on Ban’s shoulder. “What?!!” Ban snaps while turning around.
A policeman greets Ban sternly with, “I heard from two school girls that you were trying to harass them just now.”
“Ah?” Smiling his innocent smile, Ban tries to explain, “No, officer, they misunderstood... I didn’t try to harass them or anything. I just...”
“Show them your bare chest?” The policeman cuts in. “We have laws against indecent exposure, you know. You must come to station....HEY!!”
“Run, Ginji! Run!!” Ban yells as he runs fast, dragging Ginji with him.
“Wait! Stop!!” The policeman chases after them.
Ban doesn’t stop. He keeps running and running and running, dragging Ginji along, until they manage to lose the policeman. Hiding in a deserted alley, both of them slump to the ground, panting for breath. Hunger never feels more real than now.
"Thanks for the great idea, Ginji!” Ban mocks, hitting Ginji’s head hard.
“OUCH! Itai, Ban-chan! It’s not my fault that those girls didn’t want you … AOUH!! Sorry, Ban-chan… have mercy… save your energy… ARGH!! OUCH!!!”
Some other stomach growlings later....
Sitting on ground, leaning against wall, our dakkanya duo looks very miserable. Pale, weak and half dying of starvation.
“Ah, beef steak....” Ginji says all of sudden, eyes sparkling joyfully and gratefully buries his teeth into the beef steak.
“ARGH!! Idiot! It’s my arm you’re biting!!” Ban snaps, hitting Ginji off his arm.
“Huee, steak.... how come you won’t be eaten by me....” Ginji mumbles with teary eyes, his head has many bruises.
“Get yourself back together, Ginji!!” Ban shakes Ginji hard to wake him from delusion created by hunger.
“Cat....there’s a cat, Ban-chan...”
“What?! You wanna eat a cat now??!” Ban shakes his head in desperation. “Ginji, you really must....”
“No, Ban-chan! There’s really a cat!” Ginji cuts in, eyes strangely bright.
Where’s cat?! No cat around!”
“There! At the mouth of alley!”
Ban turns around to look at the mouth of the alley. And yes, there’s a cat there, standing, looking at both of them with its yellow eyes. But what caught Ginji’s attention, and now catches Ban’s too, is a big salted fist on the cat’s mouth.
Eyes sparkling like a mad cat, Ban hisses, “Ginji…. Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Ban eyes the cat intently, especially the salted fish.
“What, Ban-chan? Are you saying we’re gonna rob the poor cat?” Ginji asks innocently.
Ban snorts. “The cat isn’t poor! We’re the poor ones here!”
“But, Ban-chan....is that ok?” Ginji wonders.
“Hmph! Don’t care it’s ok or not, I see a food and I’m gonna get it no matter what!” Determined, Ban takes position to lunge at the cat.
As if knowing that the salted fish is gonna be grabbed, the cat runs as fast as light, carrying the fish in its mouth tightly.
“Wait, you damned cat!! Give me your fish!!!” Ban shouts, running after the cat. “Wait till I get you!! I’ll.... I’ll...”
Ban is slowing down while the cat keeps on running fast, farther and farther away.
“....skin you....”
Ban drops to ground, too hungry to chase the cat. “...and roast you.... Gosh.. I’m so hungry....”
“Ban-chan.... Ban-chan....”
With all his might, Ban lifts his head to see Ginji crawling to him. “The cat got away, Ginji. Too damn fast…” Ban grumbles incoherently.
“Yeah, I figure.... guess we’ll die of starvation here, Ban-chan...” Ginji drops himself on top of Ban.
“Argh! Get off! Get off! So heavy!”
“Can’t move even a muscle, Ban-chan!”
“Well, get off!! Don’t wanna die with you on top of me!!” Desperately Ban is shaking Ginji off his back.
“Argh, Ban-chan! Be nice when about to die....”
“Get off!!!”
“Ah, here you are! Been looking for both of you everywhere!” A calm voice is heard and then a tinkling of bell.
Both Ban and Ginji look up at once to see Kazuki towering above them. He smiles warmly at Ginji as Ginji shouts, “Kazu-chan!!”
“Hai, Ginji-san! So glad to see you still alive, meaning I’m not late. Here, Natsumi wants you to have this,” Kazuki says, handing a large bento box to Ginji.
“AHH!! Natsumi!! Pretty Natsumi!! She’s really an angel on earth!!” Ginji praises non-stop as he opens the bento box. “AAHH!! So yummy!! There’re fried prawn, sweet egg, onigiri, sushi.... MMMM!!!” Ginji starts to eat eagerly.
“Hahaha.... yeah, Natsumi said she made your favourite,” Kazuki chuckles, seeing the starving Ginji eats his bento fast.
“Hoi, thread ball! Where’s my bento?!” Ban demands, sitting on ground, looking at Kazuki from top of his sunglasses.
“What bento for you? Natsumi only gave me a bento box and she said it’s for Ginji,” Kazuki replies lightly.
“WHAT??!!” Ban is steaming right away. “No way Natsumi did such thing! No way! There must be a bento box for me too! You’re hiding it, eh, thread ball!” Growling, Ban gets to his feet and yanks Kazuki’s shirt. “Give it to me!!”
“I can’t give what I don’t have,” Kazuki says, still calm.
“YOU....!!!” Ban’s eyes become slanted and then he tosses Kazuki away and storms to Ginji. “Give the bento to me!!!” He snaps and grabs the bento box from Ginji’s hands.
“AH?! But Ban-chan....” Ginji pauses, amazed by the scene of Ban opens his mouth wide and just throw all the remaining bento into his mouth. “Argh... the bento is mine...” Ginji finally finds his voice again.
Ban wipes his mouth with his forearm. “What’s yours is mine, Ginji! Get used to it!”
“But, I’m still hungry....” Ginji complains with sad face.
Ban throws the bento box back to Ginji’s lap. “There, eat the box!”
“Ban-chan! You’re so cruel!!”
Ban sticks out his tongue at the crying Ginji but then he frowns as the corner of his eyes catch the sight of Kazuki eating a bento.
“Thread ball!!! You’re eating my bento, right!!!” Thundering, Ban chases Kazuki who flees while keep eating bento, taunting him.
“Wait till I get you!! I’ll make you a thread ball for sure!!!”
“That, if you can get me first!”
“Will get you for sure!!!”
Meanwhile, Ginji who still sitting on ground, crying over his bento, suddenly from behind his curtain of tears, see something in a corner of the bento box. He wipes his eyes to see clearly. “AH! Still there’s a fried prawn!!” Delightedly, he holds the prawn in his hand and brings it to his mouth.
“Ittadakimasu!!”
“MMMM!!”
