The rain fell hard, and she watched as Honey kept crying. He held his dear friend's tombstone. "TAKASHI", he wailed. She grabbed at her heart as she stared at her beloved Mori's tombstone, with Honey practically had been crying so much thatshe couldn't cry anymore. She actually couldn't be more surprised that Honey could still cry. She wanted to go over to him and comfort him, but her legs were like jelly. She wanted to at least say something, but her lips seemed to be glued together. As she stared at the grave, she couldn't help but remember how this happened. She just felt so guilty because she felt she could've prevented it...
She
doubled checked her trusted rifle, making sure it was loaded. She
heard the sounds of her fellow allies scattering. Making sure that
Miksukuni Haninozuka was alright was the objective, and failure
wasn't allowed. She picked up the gun, and looked up at her
boyfriend. "Takashi-Chan, are you going out into the field?
You've been chosen to pursue the thugs, right?" "Don't call
them that. They're doing this under the influence of drugs. They
should be called..."
"Sargent! They're bringing in
reinforcements. They all have knifes, and some appear to be drunk!",
an ally(Sp?) said.
"I have to go now. Meet me when I'm done",
Mori said to her. She extended her arm and said, "Takashi-Chan!
I'm coming with you!"
"Suizyama-Chan, you can't! Let me
do this!", Mori responded. Suizyama watched helplessly as Mori
left with his men.'I can't let him!' Suizyama thought. She raced
after him when a hand suddenly appeared in front of her face. She
looked at who owned the hand. She saw an all too familiar face.
"Rookie, that's too dangerous! Please, let Sargent
Morinozuka handle the situation!" Suizyama sighed and
said,
"Yes, luitenant, Sir...What are your orders?"
"Secure the west wing!" he commanded.
"Yes,
Sir!" Suizyama said as she went to the west wing. She kept her
senses open as she scanned the room. The next thing she knew, the
luitenant was approaching her. "What's up, Luitenant-sama?"
she asked.
"I have bad news about the sargent..." he
said. 'Takashi-Chan? No way...'
Suizyama took off without
thinking, being controlled by her own heart. She ran in the direction
of the massacre her beloved went to fight off. She saw a crowd of
people outside, all her allies. She began to moe through the crowd.
When she saw the coarpse of her now departed love, Takashi
Morinozuka.
"TA-KA-SHI-CHAN!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed.
One of her allies held her back, as she stared at the red cuts
covering his body, blood leaking from his mouth. "Hey, Suizyama!
SUIZYAMA!"
"Suizyama!"
she looked up. Haruhi was towering above her. "Everyone left,
even Honey! You'll get a cold if you stay any longer."
"You're
right Haruhi. We should study for that test on Friday, huh?"
Suizyama got up and left the graveyard with Haruhi. 'Good-bye
forever, my dear sweet Takashi...' "Haruhi...can I hang out at
your place after school for a while? I'm gonna need it..."
Haruhi gave Suizyama a weak smile and said,
"What are friends
for, anyway?" Suizyama and Haruhi left the graveyard, going to
Haruhi's apartment, leaving the sorrow behind.
It was late at night and Suizyama couldn't stop thinking about Takashi. 'Till death do us part… You promised me when I turned 18 and graduated high school you'd marry me if we were still together…' Suizyama squeezed her stuffed rat close to her chest. Suizyama let out a startled gasp, as if to remember something. She let go of the stuffed rat and sat up in bed. She leaned over to her dresser, turning on the bedside lamp. She held up the stuffed rat to her face and stared into the beady eyes on the stuffed animal. "Takashi gave you to me when he asked me out the first time" Suizyama said to the animal, as if it were a real rat. Suizyama began to cry as she remembered the treasured moments stitched into the small plush toy…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Man, I cannot believe this! I have to wear such a big yellow dress as my new uniform!" Suizyama complained. Then a hand flew up to her mouth when she realized she was talking to herself again. She cautiously looked around the hall, and heard someone coming around the corner. 'Oh no, not a perfect way to start the school year' she thought as she waited until the person came around the corner. Suizyama was stunned when she saw what she never expected to see at all, especially on her first day of school. Her eyes widened as she begun to scan her internal dictionary for the right words. In the end, the only thing she managed to say was, "HARUHI?!?! COUSIN HARUHI?!?" Haruhi had her own scare and replied, "Cousin Suizyama?! I thought you were in America!" "I was until I moved to Japan with a fortune my mom suddenly had." Haruhi shook her head and said, "Never mind the details. I'll she you around!" Haruhi said and took off in the direction Suizyama and her were both headed. "H-Haruhi?" Suizyama said as she watched her cousin walk away. She was walking fast and Suizyama walked just as fast to catch up with her. "Where are you going?" Suizyama asked her cousin. "I'm gonna be late. Trust me, you don't want to follow me" Haruhi said as she sped up. Suizyama grew a little mad at her cousin and said, "Maybe I want to follow you". Haruhi closed her eyes and laughed. "No, you don't" she said. She opened her eyes and saw Suizyama pouting with those famous puppy dog eyes. Haruhi laughed and let Suizyama join her. They approached the third music room in the midst of chitchat and Suizyama wasn't even paying attention when she turned her head.
SMACK!
"Ow!" Suizyama exclaimed after regaining her balance and putting a hand to her head. "Sorry" a deep voice said. She couldn't quite think of it, but something about his voice made her blush. "N-no it's m-my fault. I wasn't looking" Speaking of not looking, Suizyama didn't even know who she was talking to. She looked up and saw a tall Japanese boy with short black hair and looked like a senior, maybe even a junior (to Suizyama). Suizyama's eyes widened as she realized she had hit one of her new sempai. Before Suizyama could apologize again the sempai asked Suizyama where her locker was. Suizyama gave him her locker number and then he left. Suizyama watched as he left and then she turned to her cousin and asked, "Do you know who he was?" "Of course I do. That's Morinozuka Takashi, a senior at this school. He's also in the host club" Haruhi realized that she needed to be in the host club and quickly ran into the music room. "H-Hey!" Suizyama called after her cousin. Curious, she followed behind her cousin. She looked into the room and tried hard not to laugh. Inside were five high school boys dressed up in firefighter outfits. "W-What is this?" Suizyama choked out upon seeing the black-haired one with glasses hand Haruhi her own firefighter outfit. "This is the host club…" Haruhi moaned as she took the outfit from the black-haired boy. Haruhi pointed to the black-haired guy and said, "This is Kyouya, he's a sophomore, as well as Tamaki, the taller of the two blondes. The other blonde is Honey. The two with orange hair are obviously identical twins, named Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin" Then she took the firefighters outfit into a nearby changing room.
