Kideme slithered like a serpent through the grass as she listened for the distinct chirp of crickets. Well, slither was a strong word for this occasion, but damn it she was in her good kimono so close enough! Either way, she moved with an urgency that would garner her more grass stains by the minute, but for good measure! With all the other kids piling out the window, it was hard to hear but she made out a chirp and Kideme was on the prowl. "AHA! Found you!" A hand snaked through the grass to get her little fingers around the cricket but it jumped out the way and went hopping out the grass, and Kideme pounced after it.

One hop, two hops..three hops later, she sprang on top of a small black cricket and crashed chest-first into the grass when it finally hit her. She coughed from the dense ground not giving beneath her weight and she snapped her head up. "Huh? Did somebody call my name?" That was like five minutes ago, Sagara.

Assuming nobody responded, she rolled onto her side and sat up, frowning as she saw a brownish-yellow stain bubbled right over the knot of her obi. Her face contorted with frustration, but she slowly scraped off what was left of the baby cricket. '''"Rest in peace, 'Crickee'. Maybe you'll get harder and be a good snack in March." '''She slipped the smushed buggy remains into the side of her left sock and looked up. Moe was in the middle of telling a story about some haunted house and she just stared at him.

"Thump thump thump...." She repeated while looking around the rest of the yard. The biggest smile suddenly spread across her face and she took off running across the yard. "Toilet cockroach flowers!"
