To Be Strong.
With the princess of disaster gone and Takako back to normal, Himeno feels out of place, dose she still belong with them now that she is no longer needed and what of her secret vision of the queen of chaos? The mother of disaster.
p.s. I haven't seen the actual anime yet, only read the manga and fanfic so some things might not mach sorry.

Chap 1
With a bag over her shoulder she took one last look at her room in the mansion she had begun to call home. But no! She had to be strong. She turned and jumped out the window, it was quite a drop but that is one this she could say for martial arts, it teaches you how to fall. Rising from her crouching precision she ran to the gate, trying to be silent as possible.
From her window Mawata saw her start her run to the gate and was horrified.
'I thought she…' Mawata sighed, like hell was she letting the only person who she could honestly call a friend escape without giving her a reason.
Throwing on a pair of jeans and a blouse she grabbed her wallet and she to snuck out to follow.
"Finally." Himeno was pooped, but she was so close. Just over the gate and then-
"Himeno, why-no what do you think your doing?" Mawata demanded.
With a squeal Himeno spun around.
"MAWATA?"
"Answer my question!"
"I…I…can not."
"What?"
"I am a coward Mawata, since I have completed my…mission I guess is the best word? I have felt adrift, like I no longer belong with the leafe knights like I serve no purpose. There is also the fear I have and that the family has had ever since I told them everything."
"Fear? What are you talking about?" Mawata reached for her arm as Himeno was clearly agitated and hiding her face. She just throws her hand off and looked straight into Mawata's eyes.
Himeno was crying.
"I am an empath, I can feel emotions, if my talk with Takako is true all pretear's are chosen due to physic ability. I can feel their fear Mawata. Father, Natsu, Mayune and all the servants and they don't even know. I can't take it I just ca-"
SLAP
"Shut up, or the guards will hear you" Mawata rubbed her sore hand and Himeno just stared "if it really is as bad as all that why didn't you leave right away?"
"I have my reasons and they are too personal." She looked to the ground her hair covering her eyes, with Mawata thought might be crying again. She sighed.
"well I will come with you then."
Himeno's head went up so fast Mawata was surprised it didn't snap off.
"Are you insane? Why would you do that?"
"Life here is…dull and lonely, before you came no one saw me, I was just a tool for popularity, or wealth. You could care less and because of that…you're my friend."
"You mean that?" Himeno smiled and her nod.
"Yes, and if you don't let me come…I will call the guards, like hell am I letting you leave without me. My life here has been no picnic either I will have you know, mum ignores me, Mayune is an idiot not to mention jealous of everyone. I have been planning to run away myself but never had the guts to do it." Himeno's eyes widened, she had no clue it was that bad for her. Hell why not.
"Fine let's go."
Together they climbed
Takako was in the kitchen getting a glass of water. It was very nice of the leafe knights to let her stay with them (as her family had all died of old age) but still she felt out of place. She had caused so much damage and harm, how could they trust her so easily. Well not exactly easily, Hayate still refused to let her be in the presence of Himeno with out a knight standing guard, Sasame not included. She thought with a sweat drop.
Of course that didn't stop the stubborn pretear from sneaking in for a private chat with her, she thought smiling as she put down her glass.
She went to return to her room when she thought she heard something in Shin and Hajime's room.
'This is weird their awful to put to sleep but once their out, it's almost impossible to wake them again' she frowned; while they might not exactly trust her she felt enormous guilt for killing them and forcing them to be reborn. She would protect them.
The thought of how burglars, pedophiles etc got into leafeania did not even enter her mind.
"Leave the letter and let's go, if they catch you we will never escape! Hayate will most probably tie you down to ensure it."
"I'm comi-yeowch"
"shhhhhh…what's wrong?"
"I tripped over a stool, lucky their deep sleeper's hu?"
"Klutz"
The light turned on and rained down of the two girls by the window. The two little boys rolled over and buried their heads in their pillow.
"Mawata, Himeno! What's going on here?"
"SHHHHHHHHH" both said, it was then that she noticed the note, but before she could ask Himeno graded one are and dragged her out the door, through the hall way and out side leaving Mawata to turn off the light.
"You were going to leave without taking me? How could you!" the emotions coming off Takako had her completely confused, sadness and anger. Why was she so angry?
"What? Why do you want to run away? I thought you wanted to be with sesame?" Mawata said in shook.
"Well I do. But at the same time it was because of me that those who he considers brothers distrust him. With me hear they may never listen to him and give him a fair chance."
"You feel you're in the way? But I heard (cough made cough) them forgive you?" Himeno asked
"Maybe I just don't fell worthy. But I get the feeling that they don't trust me still."
Himeno and Mawata looked at each other.
And I know your secret Himeno, you will need me.
Damn it, so you saw it to hu?
"Why not the more the merrier." Himeno said out loud, cutting of the mental link.
"I agree, one more will be fun."
"You really mean it? I can come?"
"Sure I will even help you pack."
"Just be sure to hurry our train is leaving soon." Mawata cried as both dashed inside, she looked up to the window where she had earlier seen sesame.
"Forgive her, she loves you, but we need this, her most of all."
"Come on" Himeno yelled as they all ran off.
Sasame from his window watched. He could only hope that what Mawata said was true and she would return. It was time for him to face his pain and insecurities as well.
He silently cried
