Third Rose: The Crescent Cafe Crew

6:15 am- The Crescent Cafe

       Inuyasha and Juromaru pulls up to the back of a tiny coffee shop. The Crescent Cafe. It was started by her grandfather.

       He bought and ran it two full years, to prove to her grandmother's father that he was able to support his 'little' girl. That was almost 35 years ago. He had named it 'Shinta's tea shop.' After they where married, the running of the shop became a joint venture. They loved there little bakery, and devoted many hours to it. When the neighborhood surrounding the cafe fell on hard times, Ryuichi and Keade would offer lines of credit to the needy families, until they could get back on their feet. Ryuichi believed, 'Take care of the people around you, and they will take care of you.'

       After his death, her grandma and mother took over its day to day. Over the years they refined the recipes and menus. And, they even expanded the tiny shop. They added on to the store front, by building a sitting area. Then the had an outdoor patio attached, complete with rose bushes and shrubs. So that the customers could enjoy the spring and summer weather. Keade and Izayoi even planted an herb garden in the back, just so they could have access to the freshest herb and spices for their wares. In fact a lot of the changes that took place in the cafe, were Izayoi's idea. She, like her father before her, had a good head for business. A head that she passed on to her own daughter. Even the name was Izzy's idea. She was helping out in the shop with her parents after school, (if you could call eating half a plate of her dad's fresh baked tarts, and flipping through a magazine helping), when she turned to him.

Flashback: Shinta tea shop

       "Say papa?" She said, her mouth covered in raspberry sauce.

       "Yes, Izayoi?" He smiled as he wipes her face with the corner of his apron.

       "You know, I was reading in this magazine. Don't you think, we could attract more people if we had a name with more..." She frowns, as she tries to think of how she should phrase her words.

       "More what?"

       "Well, more humph!"

       He regards her with a curious look. "More 'humph'? What in the world is that, Izayoi?"

       "Well, I was just thinking, now it's just a thought, mind you."

       "Izzy, dear, if you have something to say, say it. Stop beating around the bush." Scolded her mother.

       "Yes, ma'am, it's just that I was reading in this book that in America, people are spending a lot of money to go to little 'mom and pop' coffee shops like the one we have. But, they don't call them shops. They call them cafes. And, they offer more than just tea and coffee. Here look." Showing her dad the magazine full of different establishments and the people that run them. "See daddy, we could make a fortune, if we just move thing around a little."



       Her parents stare at her in mild shock. They had never seen or heard her take such an interest in the shop before. Her father was the first to recover, "Ahem. Well, Izayoi, it seems like you've put in a great deal of thought into this."

       She frowned, "Of course, I did daddy! I'm 15 now, and a woman my age has to think of her future."

       "Oh yes, of course how silly of me," he said trying to keep a serious face. Keade had to turn her back for a moment. What do you suggest?"

       "Well, for starters how about the name..." From there she had her parents full attention.

End of Flashback

       Yes, the Crescent Cafe has seen a lot of changes over the years, inside and out. But, the real changes started when Yasha took the reigns full time. She studied in the finest culinary arts school in Japan, and even had a chance to study in America's Johnson and Wales University for a year on scholarship.

       Under Yasha's guidance, the cafe was thriving into a very lucrative little business. Offering a complete dining facility that even catered to small and medium sized functions. And now, here she was to start another busy and hopefully profitable day. She even added uniforms. Before they just used aprons and tied up their hair. It was Inu's idea to start wearing white chef's coats and black caps and visors, to keep their hair under control. It was also Inu's idea to have the counter workers wear white, red, or black T-shirts with the cafes logo on it. A small blue crescent moon with the word Crescent Cafe written across it, and a large blue crescent moon on the back. The names of each employee stitched on the front.

       Entering through the backdoor, Yasha and Juro start preparing for the first group of customers. Juromaru goes and cracks open the front door to retrieve the daily newspapers, so he could fill the stand by the counter. Relocking the door, he returns to help Inu with the morning menu items.

       By the time the rest of her motley crew of helpers and friends showed up. Inu, with Juro's help, had filled the glass counters and shelves with a variety of fresh baked goods and sweets. Ready to go. At around 7:20 am they arrived. They look towards the door contacting the kitchen to the front, when they heard the familiar voices.

       "Damn it Renkostu, you would have to be the dumbest person I know!" Yelled the cute little red headed girl, as she removes her jacket. She is 19 year old Kisa Sawa, and as usual she's crewing out her fiance, Renkostu Takashi, 20. "How could you have possibly failed so miserably? You're such a boob. I mean, it was a test on baking. You work as a baker in this restaurant. HE~LLO!" She scolds as she raps him on the head. "I mean really is there anything in that pea you call a brain?"

       "Aww, babe don't be like that. It really wasn't all my fault," he tried to explain. "I just go nervous, and I was up all night, the night before."

       "Yeah? And what where you doing all night, pray tell?"

       "I was..."

       "There was a 12 hour Akira Kurasaki anime movie marathon on that night." Said the deep voice of the man who had just walk in, as he finishes braiding his long black hair. He is 22 year old Bankostu Takashi, Ren's older brother. "He just couldn't pass up seeing that, could you little bro?" He laughed as he received a death glare from his brother.

       "YOU DID WHAT?!?!"

       "Now babe..."

       "Don't you 'Now babe' me you lazy idiot! How could you do that? You failed a test that counts for 20% of you grade to watch stupid cartoons all night?" She hits him over the head with a fan, that seemed to appear form nowhere. "All those hours we spent going over the chapters. Even after Yasha took time to help you study!"

       "Kisa, babe, don't be mad, I'll take a make up and this time I'll pass." Said the handsome young man. "Then, we'll go out and celebrate!"

       "That right, Kisa be easy on him. You know Ren has a head like a brick. It was actually you fault in the first place." Said Ban.

       "Shut up, Ban!"

        "What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

       "You had Inuyasha help him. "

       "So?"

       "Come on, Kisa. What man in his right mind could concentrate with someone like Yasha around?"

       Renkostu started to wave his arms, trying to shut his brother up. But, Ban was on a roll. "You put Ren in the same room with a sexy little piece like Inuyasha, and you expect him to study? Think about it. Those big violet eyes, that sexy little pouty mouth, and that tasty hour glass figure? Hell, even I get a little overheated when Inu is in the room."

       "Shut it, Ban, I'm not like you! And, it wasn't like that!"

       "So, what was it like then?" Asked an enraged Kisa.

       "Babe, be serious. Why would I want Inuyasha? I have the most wonderful, caring, and prettiest girlfriend in the world, right here." He said, trying desperately to soothe her anger. No one seemed to notice when the very person in question walked in the room. Yasha was carrying a large tray of freshly baked bread, followed closely by the ever silent Juro. Who carried 2 more large trays.

       "Who in their right mind would be interested in a karate and kendu nut like Inuyasha Shinta? Sure, she's pretty and all," He puts his arms around her and coos in her ear. "But, she's not in your league, Kisa. I just had a bad testing day. I'll take a make-up, it'll be all good!"

       "Hey, Ren," said the shy and soft spoken Mai Shino, another worker in the cafe. "What where you being tested on anyway?"

       "Huh? Oh, It was a baking class so the test was on the different kinds of flour and their properties "

       "No way! But, you bake bread here all day." She said, "Isn't that just a little pathetic?"

       "More than a little if you ask me! Humph, maybe Ban was right. Come to think of it, you do act a funny when Inu's around."

       "Now Kis-" He never got to finish is statement. Out of no where a large silver came flying through the small crowd, hitting Ren square in the face. Everyone, but Kisa, turned to see a very miffed Inu and a grimacing Juromaru standing behind them.

       "You idiot! We spent hours going over everything that might be on that test. I even loaned you all my notes, how could you have flunked, Ren? What are you stupid or something?" Vented Inuyasha as she picked up the tray from the floor, where it lay next to the laid out man.

       "Oh no, Ren! Ren! Speak to me!" Kisa yells as she kneels over her unconscious. Cradling his head in her lap, as she dabbed at the small gash on his head with a tissue.

       "Why did I even bother helping you, you rag headed clown."

       "Damn, dude! Yo, bro, don't go into the light! Stay away from the light," laughed Bankostu. "Hey Renkostu, you got knocked the fuck out!"

       "Shut the hell up, Ban," yelled Kisa. "Ren talk to me." Looking up at her friend, "Yasha, you didn't have to do that, you know. You really hurt him!"

       Mai walked over to Ren who is still out and a worried Kisa. She tentatively kicks his arm, "Yasha, I think you killed him."

       "Hey watch it Mai," said Kisa trying to shield her fallen man.

       "Feh, stop it Kisa, I didn't hit him that hard! Just put a little spit on him, and the moron'll be fine," answered Yasha in an annoyed tone. "Renkostu, get your silly ass off the floor already, Your not hurt, so stop faking! Your just trying for sympathy, so Kisa'll stop yelling at you."

       "Huh?" Kisa taking a closer look at him. She could see he had one eye slit, and was looking at her. "You dirty faker," she drops his head off her lap and onto the floor.

       "Ooooooooowwww!!!!!!!!"

       "Shut up you, you, ooooooohhhhhhh! Don't you even think about trying to sweet talk me now. And your best believe your sleeping on the couch."

       "For how long?"

       "You ain't getting none for a long time!" She yells as she goes to put her coat away, with Ren, following closely behind.

        Juromaru looks away from Inu, as she watches her friends leave the front. He looks up at the clock. Noting time he taps Inu on the shoulder. "Uh, uh."

       Looking up at Juromaru, Yasha tilts her head. "What's up Juro?"

       He points at the clock. 7:52. "Oh damn, eight minutes until we open. Thanks buddy here," she tosses him the keys, "open the gate and the door, and don't forget to flip the sign."

       He gives he a wide smile and a thumbs up sign. She winks at him, then walks to the kitchen. Juro quickly handles the door and the gate. Opening the blinds on the windows, he flips the sign from 'Sorry we're closed' to 'Welcome in.'

       8 am. The Crescent Cafe is now open for another busy day.

TBC...

       I hope you like this chapter. I tried to make it as interesting as possible. I did have an error in the second chapter, Inuyasha's mother died when Inu was 7 years old. The flashback was supposed to be set 15 years earlier, not 11 years. My fault, I will fix this error soon.

       And to answer aloukou101 question, Inu and Sess are 100% human I know it's not accurate, but I did keep some of there attributes. Sess and his father do still have long silver hair and gold eyes. Inu's mom is still Izayoi and she does die when Inu is still a small child. I hope you'll still read it anyway.

       Please read and be sure to tell me how you really feel!

       Love to all~ B reading U!



       ~Thanks~
