UM….THIS IS MY FIRST FF…so yea…be kind….
My exams are over so I decided maybe just give it a try…so no promise my story will be good ok?
I DO NOT OWN MAI-HIME OR MAI-OTOME OR ANY OF IT'S characters……if I did…the anime would TOTALLY suck
Now for the legends in the story:
**=thoughts of the character because I am using Microsoft word2007 and I don't know if my italic words will be saved in the same format
the line that is grayish = after a period of time
---------- = something that is happening at the SAME time the next scene happens
OK…..now for my story ^^
CHAPTER 1-separation
IT was a dark night out and two figures sat near the fireplace seemingly talking about something important.
'You…you suspect..WHAT?"A tall man clad in a black tuxedo with a dark blue mane stood up with a shocked look on his face."I suspect that our two daughters are…"the Fujino replied his voice laced with worry, something anybody who saw him would call: once in a blue moon. Not hearing a reply, he continued "that is why I will be planning a time for them to be alone tomorrow, and if my suspicions ARE right…then…I'll have to make sure my daughter does not see yours ever again. You do understand don't you? I'll never allow such a thing to happen". Emerald eyes tore away from red "ok…..IF it is true.."
A certain small blue haired girl stood with her hands pressing onto the glass window of a mechanic shop, her emerald eyes scanning it's surroundings.
"MY Na..tsu..ki what are you looking at?" a silk smooth voice said from behind her. "I want to become a biker when I grow up…." Natsuki said dreamily, not taking heed of Shizuru's question. Enjoying the view of her girlfriend's back, Shizuru wrapped her arms around Natsuki's neck and rested her head on the other's shoulders allowing her lips to lightly graze pass Natsuki's ear for a second
She waited in a few seconds of silence before…
The sound of the brunette's breathing jolted Natsuki from her little dream world causing her to jump. " Shi..Shizuru! What are you doing here?"
"My parents went to meet yours for a business deal and left me here to play with you Natsuki" the brunette replied, tugging the blue haired girl closer to her by wrapping her arms around the other's neck.
"What!? Did you say…p-play with me?"
Upon hearing what her little pup had said, Shizuru turned the younger girl around to face her, sliding her hands down to Natsuki's waist" Ara…what did MY Natsuki have in mind when she said that?..you do notice it's a little troubling to have an 8 year old saying that, no?" Natsuki's cheeks turned a few shades red" D-did I think of anything?...N-no I wasn't thinking, I cant think when you're…I mean! I wasn't thinking of anything wrong Shizuru! And I'm NOT yours for the last time!"
Hearing what the blue haired girl had said, she removed her hands from her Natsuki's waist and pouted, putting on a faux-crying face. Natsuki's head whirled at the sight afraid that she had made the other girl cry. Putting her hands on shizuru's shoulder to try and make things better, she said"um….I'm yours, seriously…see?"
Shizuru decided to not torture her girlfriend anymore and looked up"really?". "Yea" upon hearing her desired answer, she embraced Natsuki in a tight hug. Not knowing what to do, the poor pup had just hugged her 'master' back.
Taking advantage of the situation, Shizuru had pulled away just enough to see shocked emeralds and gave Natsuki a small kiss on her lips. Then pulled back fully so as to see the younger girl's reaction.
Natsuki's gaze held on to emeralds her head spinning from another 'shocking' realization, unable to move….*damnit!i should by immune to this by now! If I should be then why do I feel my cheeks getting hotter by the second!?* She could only manage to stutter a reply of incoherent broken words.
In the middle of watching her Natsuki stutter, Shizuru's phone vibrated in her pocket. She fished it out and pulled it to her ear. "Shizuru, wait there i'm getting the chauffeur to come pick you up…the meeting with Kuga-chan's dad is over" "ok…"was Shizuru's short reply, not knowing that her dad had watched the entire scene in one of the darker alleys from across the street
"Ara, Natsuki…I'll have to see you another time..My dad's here to pick me up"
"What? So fast?!..um…I mean yea, ok…bye. See you another day "she replied, saddened by the fact that she got to meet up with Shizuru for only such a short while.
A car pulled up by the drive way minutes later
"Bye MY Natsuki See you soon" Shizuru whispered into Natsuki's ear, giving her a soft peck on her ear so no one looking from inside the car could see.
"Bye Shizuru…"
Shizuru got into the car, oblivious of the fact that this was going to be her last time in years that she was going to see the blushing raven haired girl she had in front of her….
At 9PM on the same day….
It was another one of those nights when she had pretended to sleep so that she could go out to play 'exploring' in the mansion she lived in. It was so big that she had not seen all the rooms even after a few hundred times she went out to explore, although the fact that she did not dare go beyond her mother's room had made it worse.(or, was the reason for it)
She had seen her father and Shizuru's father chatting near the fireplace in the hall and had wanted to copy her favourite spy show and listen to their conversation.
---------
"But, that was just an innocent kiss on the lips and a few hugs" the man said, trying to keep his voice down incase he were to wake his sleeping baby girl who was up in her room. (supposedly) "My daughter does not EVEN hug anyone in the open unless it was my wife or it was a cultural gesture!" the other black haired man replied, his voice a tad louder than the former's.
"I WILL NOT take a chance with such behavior, I hope you understand and get this settled soon. Either you move or I move, either way we still can work together since you have been thinking of expanding to America for while now and I have a few branches there already" he said again as his ruby eyes locked on confused emeralds.
"F-fine…." The former replied finally giving up
"I'll move, I'll move to America in a few days, after I've settled the issue of who to take over and help me look after the company in Japan." He sighed and drank his now cold cup of coffee.
""I am just being cautious as I am thinking of sending Shizuru to America to study when she's older, so if you wouldn't mind, would you change your surname? It might be a bit troublesome but for both our daughter's good, I hope you will understand".
"Yes…I…I do...Saeko and I were thinking of changing it to her surname as the company runs on that surname too."
----------------
Her eyes widened from realization of what her father was discussing about but before she could make an effort to protest, an arm held her from the back with a cloth to her mouth.
"mmmmph!" was the last thing she could say before she had fainted.
------------------
"Sorry for making you make a trip here Fujino-san I hope you had a nice chat with my husband" Saeko said from her position at the door. "It's okay, see you soon."Saeko closed the door behind her and watched the car drive off from her window in the master bedroom.
When the car was gone from sight she let out a sigh "must we really do this?""Yes, it's for both our families' good anyway" her husband replied whilst resting his arms on the window sill.
"I-I think Natsuki heard what you were talking about, one of the maids saw and silenced her incase she had interrupted your conversation". Saeko said after a short few seconds of silence.
"WHAT? Where is she now? If she DID hear what we had talked about she would try and run away like the last time, just that this time, it won't be out of fun"her husband stated, furrowing his eyebrows "well, she is in her room now, she has not recovered from the medicine the maid had made for her to faint though there is still a high chance she heard the entire conversation…if that is so, we might want to use the 'drug' on her" Saeko said worriedly. "what drug?" came the short reply.
"The one that our head research scientist had invented recently for the loss of memory of a short period of time".
"o-ok…but, are there any risks?"
"Not many, it does not higher the chance of any chronic illness or any disorder, but…she might get it "back if she meets somebody or sees something that has happened in that period of time her memories were erased".
"Ok…w-we'll use it on her, it does no harm right? It just reduces the pain of loss she might or will feel in future…"
UM…so? Did it suck? I don't know what Nastuki's dad's name is so I used 'THE MAN'
Any1 knows? Or has any suggestions on what his name shud be? Pls tell me
Oh and….this is when Natsuki is 8 and Shizuru is 10
I will be continuing the story when they are 18 and 20 respectively (Natsuki in her first year at university and Shizuru as senior)
