Anyway… where was I?” said Kawakami, tapping her foot and creating tremors that registered on the Richter scale.
Such tremors were taken notice of by the occasional fleeing car, launching itself from the chaos and terror, the fastest of which already managing to make an escape from the wrath of the cruel schoolteacher. A temporary escape, but an escape all the same. Such insects were usually beneath the notice of a titan like Kawakami, at least in this current form. Barely worth toying with. Their very existence annoyed her, and even more so the fact that in their occasional appearance, she could seldom catch them before outmaneuvering her.
But not so the next target.
Limping along, barely managing to teeter on its six wheels total, the Toei Bus, filled with any number of twitching, shaking people and one terrified bus driver, found its formerly-clear path past the giant’s legs blocked by a titanic, insurmountable, fleshy obstacle.
CRASHHH!!!
The passengers lurched forward, some hitting the seats in front of them, some falling to the floor, all of them with their hearts in their chests. Those who glanced out the windows could only wince as the absolution of the schoolteacher’s two titanic legs reached up into the sky, casting them in a shadow as Kawakami deigned to grace these insects with her direct acknowledgment.
“Now where do you think you’re going, huh? You should’ve learned from the example of your little buddy over there!” – she jerked her head to the flattened heap of scrap, still smoldering a ways down the street, before crouching down just a bit, bringing her giant fuzzy head of hair closer to witness the complete and utter terror with which her new subjects were forced to regard her, up close.
With a delighted venom, Kawakami continued, “And now you’re going to pay the price.”
For a moment, neither of the pair moved. Kawakami simply judged them, sneering with the disgust with which she now regarded most humans, awaiting the jittery high that had come to possess her when she had the opportunity to snuff lives out – especially many at once.
“Now going to try to escape? Not even try to leave the bus? That’s pretty much a coffin, now, don’t you know? I admit, that does take some guts.”
Then she lifted her foot and stomped the bus flat. She started with her heel first, at the very back of the vehicle, before bringing the rest of her foot down with a world-ending SMACK!
It buckled, just a bit, as the glass shattered and the passengers leapt for one another in their final moments, before the roof and floor were smashed together like a panini press. Kawakami’s long, pale foot was at just the perfect size to decimate the public transportation vehicle.
“Heh… that bus was always late anyway,” Kawakami quipped, rising up once again and taking her stately place amongst the skyscrapers. The tallest only barely managed to reach her sternum
