| �Michiru-san.� Again he stepped towards her. �I can show you how to use it. Please let me help.� The sincerity in his voice was clear, but it would likely have little effect on Mi-chan.
�You can instruct me from back there,� she shot at him with a look. �Fine,� he replied, just as huffily. �Turn it on, plug a USB cable into it and the jack on the computer, and tell me what the screen says.� He apparently had lost her at the �USB cable.� After turning it on, she cast her eyes about the room in search of anything to use, then turned the equipment over, apparently searching for the space to plug it in. �Oh, for goodness sake!� He crossed both hers and Haruka�s paths over to a box clearly marked that it was full of cables, grabbed a brand new USB cable, opened the package, and walked right back over to Mi-chan. Thrusting the cable in her hands, he pointed to the side of the GPS gear. �It goes here.� She plugged it in as he glanced at the screen. �It�s not even set up correctly. Here, let me take it.� She had been about to plug the other end of the cord into the computer, when he reached for the unit. His hand touched hers ever so slightly, but it was enough for her to stop and jerk it back. �I told you not to touch me!� she yelled at him. He threw up his arms in incredulity. �Michiru-san! We don�t have time for this! Just give me the goddamn GPS unit!� Without warning he grabbed it, but Mi-chan fought against him, not letting go either. �I�ll figure it out myself! Just get out of my face,� she growled. �It will probably fix itself when it�s connected to the computer, anyway.� �No, it�s not that simple. If you want to find Neko-chan�� A sudden flash before his eyes and explosion through his body stopped him from finishing. Then there was nothing. |
