She sumbles through the woods, a blank expression gracing her features. Tears mix with rain and dribble down her cheeks. The night is filled with crickets and birds playing a rising symphony. She thinks back to just an hour before, and flashes of ice cream and smiles sear her eyelids. She blinks the images away as more tears well. It's too painful.
She passes under a streetlight. A plain wooden bench sits in the spotlight. She sits on it, then lays down. She's already soaked. What does she care? Her eyes stare blankly at the stars and the cricket's music turns into a familiar tune.
Binkusu no sake wo, todoke ni yuku yoUmikaze kimakase namimakaseShio no mukou de, Yuuhi mo sawagusora nya wa wo kaku, tori no uta
A sob escapes her throat as she listens and thinks of her friends, all eight of them.
They just wanted ice cream, but their resident idiot had to cause trouble, just like always.Now the one who always knows the way is lost (or she just doesn't care), and her friends are nowhere to be found.
Someone walks toward her, rifle gripped in their hands. He sees her and lets out a shout, alerting the others that are looking for them. She cant find the energy to resist.
"True Justice" throws her to the execution block immediately, and she cant bring herself to care. They said they were gone. What did she care? She deserved it for letting them down.
A loud shout cuts across the court yard. "Fire Bird Star!" A wall goes up in flames and quickly crumbles. Below the platform there is nothing but chaos, and screams quickly fill the air, but eight voices overpower them all.
"Nami-san!"
"Nami-sis!"
"Nami-san!"
"Nami!"
"Nami-schwan!"
"Nami!"
"Witch!"
"NAMI!!!!"
