The Score of Haruhi Suzumiya, chapter two.
By Henry J. Cobb

[The Haruhi Suzumiya characters and situations are the creation of Nagaru
Tanigawa. Other than that, he's blameless for the following.]

On Friday afternoon I left the girls playing dress-up in the
clubroom. Suzumiya had already talked Miss Asahina into bringing her work
outfit to school. What other humiliations did she have planned for the
poor girl?

Well I had my own mystery to solve. This morning I had received a letter
in my shoe box. "Come to classroom 1-5 after the other students have
left."

When I got there I saw only one person. "Ryouko Asakura? Is this your
note?"

"Yes." Our class representative beckoned me over.

"What is this about?"

"Haruhi Suzumiya has been too boisterous lately."

"You can't blame me for her behavior. If you don't want her talking in
class then tell her yourself."

"I've got something here that will change her mood." She smiled and
flipped up her skirt. There was a black leather sheath clipped to the side
of her panties. She drew a military style combat knife from this.

"What?" I stood stunned.

"Oh, excuse me. Am I interrupting something? Do you two need some
privacy?"

I turned to see Suzumiya standing in the doorway.

Asakura twisted my left arm behind my back and held the tip of her knife
to my throat. "Stay back."

Suzumiya walked up three steps.

"You're killing him, Suzumiya." Asakura nicked my throat ever so
slightly.

"Did you bring a second knife?" Suzumiya took another step towards us.

"What kind of question is that?" Asakura pushed me over slightly to get a
better view of Suzumiya.

"It's just that if you stick your only knife into him, then you won't have
anything left to defend yourself when I kick your ass."

"Take him!" Asakura pushed me forwards and moved to the side.

Suzumiya vaulted over me, pushing me down with her hands as she twisted
around to deliver a kick. I landed hard on my back and saw Suzumiya's kick
connect on Asakura's knife hand. There was a loud crack and the knife flew
through the air to land with a clatter on the floor.

"Ow! You bitch! You broke my wrist." Asakura grabbed her right wrist with
her left hand.

"Where did she get the knife, Kyon?"

"What?" I lay there stunned.

"You wouldn't have walked up to a girl who was holding a knife, so where
was she hiding it?" Suzumiya grabbed my right arm and pulled me to my
feet.

"A sheath on the right side of her panties."

"Thanks." Suzumiya flipped up Asakura's skirt, pulled out the sheath,
then slapped Asakura's backside with the sheath to urge her towards the
door.

"You're letting her go?"

"Do you want me to kill her, Kyon?"

"Can't you arrest her or something?"

"I'm not a cop. She can't fight like this and her own organization puts a
high price on failure." Suzumiya watched Asakura walk away then put a
finger against my lips.
