The Turning Point
A/n: It's been a long time since I haven't updates any of my stories… -sniffs- I'm sorry. Damn ......... SCHOOL! And MOM (huh?)! Oh, you know what? 12th graders sucks. -grumble- Oh, well. Enough procrastinating. Without further addo, here is this!
Disclaimer: UMmm... I don't own both SP and MH, I do wish I could own Shizuru and Shizuma's big poster.... -drools-
Thanks to: The Unknown Blur for beta-ing!
Oh, and this is somewhat based on the manga...
And, umm... My first time writing Strawberry Panic! So, RnR?
"Shi-Shizuma-sama, I-I…" A nameless underclassman said.
"I'm so sorry; it's been a very hard issue for me, too." A silver haired girl said calmly, without even looked at the person behind her.
Hanazono Shizuma, despite her cool appearances, had an evil smirk inside. If she could break up with her, it would give her a new record for breaking another girl's heart.
There was a long silence before the girl sighed.
"I… see, Shizuma-senpai. But you should know that I still love you." She said, with her helpless, pleading, doughy eyes.
'Huh. How funny. This girl didn't understand that I only used her for my own benefit. How stupid.' Shizuma evilly thought to herself as she looked smugly at the girl. Surely, she's beautiful, but… certainly not her type. Shizuma's wish is that she'll have a girl who didn't only look her from the outside… or her appearances, or… her fame. She sighed.
"I understand. Now, could you leave me alone?" She said, giving the girl a cold smile of hers.
"If you say so, Shizuma-sama!" The girl immediately rushed away with tears rolling down her face.
Shizuma exhaled a sigh.
'Finally," She thought calmly as a victorious smile appeared on her face. 'I don't have a girlfriend!'
Shizuma's unusual victorious smile grew wider, since…it means she could flirt with more girls.
"Ufufufufu…" She thought mischievously.
A sigh was heard and caught her completely off guard.
"Shizuma?"
Shizuma gulped. She instantly recognized the owner of the voice. It's none other than… Rokujou Miyuki, a member of Miator's student council. She cleared her throat, before letting a shiny smile appear on her face as she greets her.
"Greetings, Miyuki. What's the matter?" she asked.
Miyuki completely lost in thought about what on the earth Shizuma might have had planned with a stupid smirk on her face (or at last that's what she thought). She raised an eyebrow.
Miyuki stared at Shizuma.
Shizuma stared at Miyuki.
They kept the staring contest for a quite a long time before Miyuki looked away with a sigh.
Shizuma was keeping her cool face on at all cost.
"What? I was just wondering if I could ask you whether you saw someone and you… well, you ended up acting like a weirdo." Miyuki said bluntly, flipping her hair.
Shizuma didn't want to lose at their little game so she replied, "Me? Weirdo?" with an innocent looks.
Miyuki let out another sigh. 'Shizuma was so hopeless sometimes…'
'Did you break up with that sweet girl?? ' Miyuki was actually wanted to ask her that, but…
"You just broke up with that kiddo, right?" Miyuki stated, as calm as ever.
For once, Shizuma thought that Miyuki was capable of… mind reading. Or she… was she stalking their conversation?
Shizuma gave Miyuki a death glare, which she hoped would affect her.
"What?" Miyuki said, as she felt uneasy with Shizuma's gaze.
Before Shizuma could make any excuse, she cut in. "You didn't think I was just stalking you, did you?" She said sarcastically.
Shizuma narrowed her eyes. 'Huh? So, IS Miyuki capable of mind reading? I think… that would make a good article.' Shizuma immediately having her infamous thinking pose, she titled her chin and was imagining about her article being a headline in school's newspaper.
"Rokujou Miyuki is capable of mind reading! Contact Hanazono Shizuma for further information."
Miyuki's jaw dropped as she looked at this… rather strange Shizuma. She let out another sigh, making Shizuma fully alert.
"Shizuma? Oi?" Miyuki waved her hand in front of her head, hoping she'll grab her attention.
Shizuma narrowed her eyes at her, why on earth would she have to ruin her imagination?
"What?" She asked, annoyed.
"You really are in a weird mood today. Anyway,"
Shizuma shrugged, as she calmly walked away.
"Do you see a girl with red eyes?" Miyuki half yelled as Shizuma was walking away
from her.
Shizuma stopped dead from her tracks. The word 'girl' immediately made her smile happily.
"Hmmmm?" Shizuma hummed, as she showed a happy face. She was walking closer to Miyuki, making her sweat roll down her face.
Miyuki gulped.
"A girl with red eyes. We'll have a new student." Miyuki finally said, although completely aware with a mischievous sparkle on Shizuma's clear green eyes.
"Shizuma… Don't tell me you're…"
Shizuma gave her an evil smirk and a playful wink.
"Oh my. I'm so screwed up." Miyuki said, as she lightly slapped her forehead.
"You've been a great help, Miyuki. No need to worry. I'll find the girl and immediately bring her to the council's office." Shizuma gave her trademark smile that resembles "I'm going to find the girl at all costs!" She then walked away, leaving a jaw-dropped Miyuki.
"Holy shit."
Outside school…
There were two men outside Astrea's gate, and they were discussing about something.
"Are you sure she's not been transferred here?" A guy in army clothes asked in a perfect English.
"Yes, Sir! I'm pretty sure about that, Sir!"
The older guy nodded in understanding, before he turned around, and walked back to his car.
"Very well, then."
Somewhere on the strawberry dorms…
Suzumi Tamao was walking on her way back to her room after the Literature club's project was finished. She was thinking of the hottest gossip this time that the famous Hanazono Shizuma was just breaking up with her girlfriend, an underclassman. She was happily humming a song until…
"Excuse me?"
Tamao turned around, certainly didn't expect the person she's just gossiping appeared in front of her.
Hanazono Shizuma, aka St. Miator's famous playgirl, fifth grader student from the snow class.
"Greetings, Hanazono-senpai. " Tamao bowed a little.
Shizuma smiled. "Greetings. Have you ever seen… A girl with red eyes?" She asked calmly.
Tamao was puzzled. Why on the earth she looks for a girl with red eyes? Could that be…
Tamao smiled mischievously inwardly, but she kept her cute face onward.
"I'm so sorry Hanazono-senpai. I haven't seen the girl in question." She replied softly.
'Yikes. I talked to Shizuma…'
Shizuma nodded. "I see. Farewell, Suzumi-san." With this, Shizuma immediately turned around and walked gracefully in search of the red-eyed girl.
Tamao was too stunned until she didn't even have any chance to reply.
"Ara ara,"
Shizuma turned around, only to swoon at two alluring ruby eyes behind Tamao.
'Oh my God. She's so pretty. I think I'm falling for her…' She thought, couldn't care less at Tamao, who was noticing that she was drooling at someone behind her.
Tamao was curious as well, and when she looked at her, she began to swoon.
'No wonder Shizuma-senpai drools. This girl is angel! No, I mean, Goddess! Yes, she is GODDESS!!'
Shizuma looked down from the girl's eyes into the view of her sweet lips. She doesn't know why, but she felt hungry all of the sudden. She wanted to taste those pink luscious lips.
'Hummm… Her lips… looks… delicious- I mean… good… Yah, it's good. I wonder if she…'
The red eyes girl smiled slightly at the sight of a swooning girl in front of her, and a silver haired girl who was licking her lips. 'So adorable.' She thought.
However, the red-eyed girl-goddess was getting uncomfortable, since Shizuma was ogling her from head to toe, and Tamao was swooning.
She then managed to fake few coughs, hoping the two girls would stop ogling and swooning at her.
"Ara ara… Excuse me?" She started, her voice as beautiful as ever.
To Shizuma, although she had somewhat strange accent she supposed from Kansai region, she had a really beautiful voice. It's so melodious until Shizuma forgot all of her manners, and she immediately grabbed her hand, causing the other girl to gasp.
"A…ra?" Was the thing she's managed to say, before she was being dragged by Shizuma, who put a charming smile on her cool face, leaving a shocked Tamao behind.
'Gotcha.'
