Chapter 1

"Damn it, why does Konata ALWAYS have to be late?!" yelled Kagamin, "I mean, seriously, we have been waiting here for about an hour and a half and she STILL hasn't shown up yet!"

"Well, you know, Sis, maybe she was up all night again," said a worried Tsukasa. "Yeah, that same lame story over and over again. God, Miyuki must be wondering where we are," stated an irritated but also concerned Kagamin. The sisters decided to give Konata another 30 minutes.

In about 25 more minutes the blue haired otaku herself showed up. "So give us the lame excuse as why you were late today," retorted Kagamin. "Well I was la—"

"You know what? I don't want to hear it today. We PROMISED Miyuki we would be there almost two hours ago and you're late as usual. I don't know why I expected anything different. You're always making excuses. Will you ever take into account how other people feel?!" Kagamin screamed after interrupting Konata. "But…I—"

"Oh, no you don't! I won't let you turn this around on me! I don't know why I am even your friend or how you have so many!" countered Kagamin. "Sis, don't you think you've said enough?" asked Tsukasa meekly, noticing the look of shock and hurt on Konata's face. "Not now, Tsukasa!" exclaimed Kagamin, not even listening to Tsukasa.

"And to top it all off, you are obsessed with anime and have no life! I don't know why I even bother being your friend!" finished Kagamin, ignoring Konata's tears. "SIS! What the hell is wrong with you?! Not only are you drawing attention to us, why don't you look in a mirror and try saying that to yourself! You're a horrible friend to Konata even though she might have a legitimate reason for being late!" yelled Tsukasa. Konata uttered, "Pocky…sticks."

"Huh," said Kagamin. "I was late because I was trying to get you a box of Pocky sticks to munch on the train, but I had to go all the way across town to get some," said Konata as she slid the box of Pocky over to Kagamin.

"See what you've done, Sis? All Konata did was try to be nice to you, and you chew her head off for it! What were you thinking?!" demanded Tsukasa angrily. Kagamin had only now realized that Konata was crying. "Oh, God, what have I done?" said Kagamin regretfully.

The train was now about to leave, so they boarded, but after a while they notice they couldn't find Konata.

"She probably just sat in a different part of the train," offered Tsukasa. "Yeah, maybe…but—"

Kagamin was cut off by the train's intercom.
