OHOHOOHOHOH.
...
Which is why I'm trying to update other stories other than My Vampire Knight One, since OH DEAR GAWD, I have half the chapter written out and BAM. My mind is now 'idea-less'.
Need Help. Seriously.
But err.. here's the New Natsume story. Enjoy :)
-X- Miyazawa Sayuri -X-
Okay, imagine with me, all right? The bustling streets of Tokyo, Japan, filled with adults rushing to work, kids walking with their parents; laughing. And then, imagine a girl; A girl about 5 feet tall with long, flowing sky blue hair and turquoise eyes. She's wearing a scarf that's striped cotton candy pink and white. She has a thin brown coat and ripped jeans on. Underneath her auburn jacket, she has a green tank top. That girl is me. Miyazawa Sayuri, that is.
I started coughing. It was -6 degrees out and I had eaten barely a crumb since last week. The only thing I could live on was water, and even a human being can only survive so long without food. I roamed the streets, shivering, holding myself and only staring at my feet. I wasn't accustomed to begging, so I refused to do anything to lower my pride. The Miyazawa pride. But... that's another story.
My miserable shivering was interrupted with a male passerby shouting, "F-Fire! There's a fire! Someone help!"
In the midst of my shivering I wondered to myself why I fire would break out in -6 degrees and I concluded that it must have been an electrical or chemical burn. I stopped the man, holding him by his arms and looking up.
"Where's the fire?" I asked flatly.
"Th-That way," he huffed pointing in the opposite direction he had come from.
I dashed past him and despite the fact I had no shoes on, I tortured my feet as they leapt onto rocks and lumps of the ground. I cursed as I realized how slow I was going.
I ran into an alleyway, and checked the surrounding so that no one could see me. I rubbed my hands together and stretched my fingers.
"All right. Sorry, feet." I apologized and with a snap of my finger, I hoisted myself up onto the rooftops of the stores with a huge block of ice coming out from nowhere.
I smirked as I clapped my hands together and faced them towards my feet, where the bottoms became ice. My feet were numb anyways, so I skated towards my destination, jumping off rooftops and leaping past tall fire escapes.
My eyes went wide as a huge fire exploded from what seemed like a window out the of 'Hojo Ltd.' building where even I, being homeless, knew was a famous science laboratory.
I scanned the crowd with my eyes and a big ruckus was going on down below. I rolled my eyes as I rubbed my hands together, lifting them towards the sky. I closed my eyes and imagined water being sucked out from the clouds above and slightly from oceans and then...
I crashed my hands downwards.
Water poured down in a split second from the sky and onto the building. Bringing my arms to the left, q wave of water crashed through the building, pushing several people out through windows and landing safely in the wave of ice, which lowered them down to ground level. I closed my eyes as I connected with the water still in the building. I checked in each room, each creak and crevice, even in the mice holes, for anyone I had missed. My search was delayed as I noticed an electrical circuit sparking.
"My husband's still in there! GET HIM!" A woman cried, down below, trying to get past a policeman.
My brain flew. Even if I froze the circuit entirely, I would still need to find every single other circuit in the building. No, that would be too long.
My brain concluded after 1.8 seconds that the only option was the find the man, so acting rashly, I waved my hand, creating a bridge that connected from the building to the rooftop I was at. I slid onto and into the building, ignoring the bewildered exclaims coming from outside.
The firemen were flushed outside, but continued to go back into the building. I had to avoid them during the time I was getting to the man, since I knew exactly where he was. Or... er... the water knew exactly where he was.
I ran through the building and found the 'washroom' sign, smiling from ear to ear. I crashed through the door and grabbed the man's hand, which I knew would be there, trying desperately to open the door from the inside.
"Whoa!" he shouted, as I pulled him out roughly.
"Hey there," I smiled sweetly, almost sarcastic.
"Uh..." He didn't have time to respond as I swung him over in the direction of an intersection where a fireman just happened to be turning a corner. As the fireman held onto the man, I grinned and with one big wave of both hands, I created an enormous wave of water and gushed them all out.
They landed with an 'Oomph!' since I once again made them land on ice. I had 1 second left and then...
I froze the entire building.
Yup, the whole entire thing. Who wants to bother going through each and every power outlet? I only didn't freeze the building before because the man was trapped in a room and I couldn't get him out using my 'gift'.
Citizens outside were all gaping and falling onto their bottoms, pointing at the building.
The head of the Hojo Ltd., Kohaku Hojo, had his jaw dropping and staring in amazement at what had become of his building.
As another ruckus began, I squirmed out of a space I created that led into an alleyway.
With one last smile, I walked away lifting an arm up. The water immediately raised back into who knows where I actually got it from, and everyone was dried off, or at least not too wet. Let's leave them asking what the hell happened. That's what they always do, anyways...
-X- Third Person –X-
Narumi had been walking on the streets of Tokyo nearby the fire and was shocked as a gush of water came pouring down form the heavens.
Not your everyday sightings.
He immediately scanned the area for anyone who might have been responsible, but too many people were around, looking out from windows, complaining about being wet--
...There was a girl on a rooftop, rubbing her hands together. Snowflakes or ice seemed to be coming out.
Narumi squinted at her His eyes widened as he realized who she was. No one else had the exact same colour hair and striking eyes.
The riot grew even more chaotic and people were screaming about what happened when the water lifted off the ground and splashed through the building again.
Narumi gaped. That must be a strong Alice.
People were washing out and Narumi looked up at the girl, deciding that she was the one, because her eyes were closed and she was concentrating. She didn't seem to be causing any harm, as she lowered the people on a bed of ice. Obviously she was no criminal on the loose.
Narumi bolted to the fire escape leading up to the rooftop when suddenly a bridge formed from the rooftop going down towards a window in the building and in a split second she had slid down into the building.
Yes, it was definitely her, the daughter of Miyazawa Hakuto.
-X-
After the ruckus was over, Narumi followed the girl with his eyes, hiding in the alleyway, waiting for her to squirm out from the back, since she was more of the 'undercover hero' than the showoff type.
Surely enough she squirmed out, removing the water away from herself and from the people and back up into the sky.
Narumi smiled as he realized he had found another amazing child with an Alice. Surely he would be praised, if not rewarded.
-X- Miyazawa Sayuri -X-
"Excuse me," came a voice from behind me. I exhaled silently as I realized I had been spotted. Lovely.
I turned around to meet a man in his twenties smiling at me. I frowned. He didn't give off a very well intentioned scent. In fact, he gave off the scent of...
...
Oh no.
"You have such great - ... Wait!" I wasn't staying to get captured into that stupid 'Alice Academy' Ding bell school. Hell, the least I wanted to be was capture in a confined space with limited access to freedom. Hell, there would probably be food and all, maybe even a nice warm room, but I've had all that before. I don't need it.
"WAIT!!" he continued to shout after me, he had long legs, I'll give him that, but sliding on ice was obviously much faster. I could go 210km/hr at maximum.
"I said," a frustrated inhale, "WAIT!"
And then I stopped. I don't know why. Maybe my feet hurt, or maybe it was because I nearly collapsed because I went a week without food or warmth and I had no more energy to run nevertheless use my gift for ice. Either way, he loomed over me, touching my cheek.
I couldn't help but give in, and close my eyes, falling asleep. Hadn't I suffered enough? I thought Karma existed... Is this what I get for saving a man's life?
The man's voice engulfed me. "You'll be alright. I'll make sure of it," I fell asleep or maybe blacked out before he finished his sentence, "Miyazaw Sayuri."

rofl. Crappy Prologue.
This was er... not how I wanted it to be.... I just wanted a small scene where Narumi discovers you but it turned into an epic 'Spiderman hero' scene xD So much for a small entrance.
I've been getting a lot of feedback about detail adding and more description, less talking. I hope this chapter had enough of that.
Do you agree? Or do you like more dialogue? Did this chapter bore you? Was it just right? Was it okay for a prologue? Too flowery? Too much description, more humour/plot?
Review and tell me please. Chapter one will be here soon. I promise.
