Hayate looked up at the window to Himeno's room and smiled. It was ten years since the battle with the Disaster Queen Fenryl and everything had settled down well. As he approached the Awayuki Mansion, he felt inside his pocket for the small box containing something that would well change his entire future but he didn't regret it one bit. He rung the doorbell and was promptly guided into the house by a smiling Tanaka-san. Apparently, he knew Hayate was about to do, arriving in such formal clothes with a huge bouquet and a box of chocolates.
As Hayate walked up the stairs, the thought about the last Prétear, Takako, and all the challenges he had gone through with Himeno just to defeat the Disaster Queen. Then he thought about the other Leafé Knights. It brought a smile to his lips to think how much the three younger ones had grown.
Mannen had greatly changed from the small boy he had been into a charming young man. He had matured greatly over the years yet retained his cheery lovable self. Shin and Hajime had changed much as well but they still retained abit of their old characteristics. Shin had become quite the introvert, diving into his books every moment he could and Hajime had gotten more daring than before. With Go's help, he managed to set up a Skate Boarding Club.
Sasame, Go, Kei and himself had changed as well. Sasame had since set up his own radio station and him and Takako were getting on really well. Go had gone into martial arts and planned to set up his own dojo if he could. Kei had joined Sqaresoft after they recognised his great talent and was currently working on Final Fantasy XII. As for himself, Hayate had been with Himeno ever since. He loved Himeno deeply and often asked himself why it was taking him so long to do this.
As he reached the top of the flight of stairs, he breathed deeply and knocked on Himeno's door, fumbling for the last time with the box in his pocket.
"Come in!" A cheerful familiar voice greeted him. He opened the door and saw Himeno sitting at her table, crushed paper strewn all over. "Himeno." He called out, smiling, trying hard to conceal the large bouquet and chocolates but to no avail. Himeno turned to him and gasped as she watched him come closer to her then kneel down.
"Himeno, will you ma-.."He didn't get to finish his sentence. Himeno had fainted and landed forward onto him. "Himeno, HIMENO!!" He said shaking her. Within those few seconds, her whole body had turned pale and cold and blood was trickling from her forhead. A pain shot throught Hayate's chest at this. He immediately dismissed the pain and focused his mind on Himeno. He was shocked at what had just happened but something at the back of his mind told him that Himeno didn't just faint. That it was probably the fortelling of something much much worst. He gently carried her to the bed and set her down. Moving his hand up to her pale face he brushed away her hair to find the source of the blood and was surprised to see a deeply etched mark. It was small yet noticeable. It was a familiar symbol but Hayate just couldn't remember what. He looked around for something he could use to clear the blood.
Just as he did so, 6 glowing orbs materialised in the room and changed into the remaining 6 Leafé Knights. Worry was etched all over their faces.
"We all felt it, didn't we.." Hajime said, his voice shaking. The rest nodded slightly. It was a jolt of pain through the heart that the Knights would feel should two bad things occur. One, the arrival of a greater evil or two, the death of the Princess Prétear. The Leafé Knights moved towards the bed on which the still figure laid. Kei looked towards the bouquet and box of chocolates strewn on the floor, and walked over to the distraught Hayate.
"She will be fine, Hayate. Himeno is a strong girl." He said, laying a reassuring hand on his friend's shoulder."All we need to do now is find out how this happened and get Himeno back." It was pretty much unlike Kei to say something that caring, he usually just said whatever truth he knew, often hurting others in the proces, but this was different. He had watched the two lovers for a very long time, and after all their hardships, he felt that they deserved to be together.
Hayate looked up, fear for his love clearly etched into every fine feature of his face. He nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently and the 7 Knights heard a chilling voice inside their head.
"You've always depended on the Prétear till now, my dear Knights. Now let us see how well you do without her!" The voice laughed and a huge dark swirling portal appeared beneathe them. Without any time to react, they were sucked in...
