Shizuru's List
Inspired by Schindler's List, truly a great film.
A/N: have been here and there, drifting about for a while now...never had the courage nor the determination to actually write or draw sth despite the insane amount of ideas I get flooding in (welcomed or not). O well, since i was inspired then, why not? I figured... so here I go, my first fanfic and perhaps the worst fanfic ever. Who knows? Please do R&R, comments - positive or flames - will both be appreciated.
Disclaimer: Mai HiME not mine and neither is Schindler's List - insert bitter laugh
Prologue
It was a battle not worth fighting. She knew what the result would be. In fact, she knew what she would do so well that she wondered why the pistol was still in her hand at all. Silky chestnut hair fell around sharp attractive features as the green cap was removed with a swift movement. The Ehrenwaffe was ever so slowly lowered. Heart 4, brain 0…Ara, brain should work harder next time. Smiling her most sincere and genuine smile, she faced the defiant emeraldglare that most people would prefer to avoid. Don't try that on me, love, I'm not afraid of you.
''Kuga san, you should not glare at a Gauleiter like that or you might get shot.'
Her smile was not returned.
'Then shoot me.' came the cold reply.
Straight to the point, as always.
'One shouldn't throw their life away just like that…especially a blossoming beauty like you.' The teasing statement was completed with a wink.
A blush appeared as expected and also as anticipated, the exotic visage turned towards the blood stained wall, a futile attempt to hide her 'weakness'.
'So? Are you gonna shoot or not?' another rather worthless try at a comeback.
'It would have been my lost if I shoot you.' the Gauleiter said with a grin.
'H..How would…it be your, um, your lost?'
She's stuttering! Dear god, she's wayyyyyyyy cuter than any of my collection of fan girls…
'Isn't it obvious? Who would I stare at during all those long boring hours of work when you're gone?'
After hearing the District Leader's nonchalant yet provocative words, cheeks flared up again and the raven haired teen stomped off towards her designated camp, muttering 'Any of those fucking suck ups of yours would do nicely. They want your attention, I didn't ask for it.'
Putting her cap back on neatly (she has to set a good example to that bunch of hyenas AKA fans) she chuckled to herself. That was the first proper… - well, not really that proper – conversation she had with that interesting (good looking) girl. That Natsuki girl caught Shizuru's eyes as soon as the train cart door slid open. And just like some of those overly clichéd romantic novels, time did stop. Then in slow motion, similar to that of a corny film, viridian orbs closed and opened to meet hers. Beautiful face lifted to encounter hers; however, all the cheesiness of the moment dissipated as the aloof gaze found something else to gawk at.
'Um, leader? Halo?' interfered a lower ranked soldier. The lovely flash back vanished to Shizuru's disappointment and anguish.
'What?' the leader's words came out more forceful than intended. Shizuru? Losing control? Not a good sign.
I'm losing it…I knew it. I better sort this lust or whatever it is out quick or I would actually go mad.
p.s. could be a one-shot, depends on what you want (and my study load)
