4SailorStar9: And so, here begins the third book of the 'Fly With Me' saga. (Sighs) For everyone who put this fic on your favorited and followed lists and/or story alerts, thank you, but remember everyone, a lot of authors (myself included) sustain on readers' reviews.
Pairing: Kai/Ami
Disclaimers: Sailor Moon and Cardfight! Vanguard belong to Takeuchi-sensei and Akira Itō-sensei respectively. Me, on the other hand, own absolutely nothing, except the pairing and the fic idea.
Prologue: Introducing Ishida Naoki
"Ishida..." Aichi ran out of Card Capital after Naoki fled out, but not before purchasing the Narukami trial deck. "I wonder if I made him mad."
"Yo, Aichi." Kai greeted, the Hitsue High group behind him.
"Kai, guys." Aichi blinked.
"So you had your first cardfight with someone from the same high school." Miwa noted amusedly, after Aichi related what had occurred.
"But I got caught up with it and won." Aichi sighed.
"Nah, you went plenty easy on that hot-blooded kid, Aichi." Christopher assured.
"'Cause no matter how many times you told him, he kept calling his cards, even the ones he could've used for guarding." Lee added.
"Like a certain someone I won't mention." Ami teased, Miwa and Izaki sending knowing looks at Morikawa.
"What're you looking at?" Morikawa muttered.
"Beginners have a tendency to devote themselves to attacking." Ali remarked. "That type's not popular with the ladies."
"As if you're the popular one." Morikawa snorted.
"Don't you know how many girlfriends I have?" Ali fired back.
"You can't find a fellow Vanguard player in a good school like Miyaji Academy?" Izaki cut in before Morikawa and Ali fought.
"Nope, it's a school that focuses on preparing for college." Aichi explained. "Besides, there aren't any kids who are interested."
"I see." Miwa noted. "We're got a Vanguard boom at school. Wanna transfer over?"
"Thank you, but..." Aichi started. "Kai?" he blinked when Kai stood up.
"If he bought a deck on his way out, that means he's interested in Vanguard." Kai reasoned.
"I see..." Aichi nodded.
"Get your act together." Kai chided. "You're a leader, remember?"
"That's..." Aichi mused. "But if Ishida is interested in Vanguard, I've got to reach out to him. Thank you, Kai."
"Jeez..." Kai sighed. "You're a different person from when you fight."
"You're a nice guy, Kai." Miwa teased.
"He would've realized it even if I hadn't said anything." Kai defended.
"But you felt the need to say it." Ami finished his end-thought. "Before I forget," she dug into her book-bag. "Christ, here." she slid over a CD case over to the younger boy. "My part is done."
"That's fast." Christopher gaped.
"It's a large file, even for CD-ROM." Ami explained. "So, you'll have to unzip the file."
"Will do." Christopher nodded.
"That's not it." Kai corrected, leading Miwa and Ami out. "It's just... seeing him sitting there at a loss, it slipped out. Even though, he's already pretty strong..."
"Inferiority complex!" Ami suddenly stabbed him on the side with a hand knife. "Begone!"
"Ow..." Miwa winced, seeing the discomfort Kai was obviously under, said brunette was shooting a glare at his girlfriend. "That's got to hurt..."
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
