Prelude To Terror…
Hello, readers. Welcome to my first-ever Hana Yori Dango fic. To start off, I never actually heard
of this anime/manga series until I bumped into one of its rather spin-offs: Meteor Garden.
Much to my reluctance to admit this, I was once hooked to soap operas from Mexico, such as
Betty la Fea and Marimar. Eventually I got fed up, so I stopped watching them and look for other
things to watch. By 2004, my entire household members got hooked to Meteor Garden, and of couse,
rather than go out at the middle of the night, I was forced to watch it, and to my surprise, this is a really
interesting change of pace, and with a good reason. Since watching Tokusatsu and Sentai shows, this
soap opera from Taiwan has a good plot, and months later I learned that Meteor Garden is based on the
original manga and anime, Hana Yori Dango. And there I watched it in its entirely.
In the fourth quarter last month, the live action version of Hana Yori Dango was aired in my country, the
Philippines, and and I began to watch it for any similarities. There both this show and Meteor Garden are
similarly the same, except that in meteor Rain and Meteor Garden season 2, their plots are different. After
watching them, that was it. Then weeks later, I decided to check out the anime version, and surprisingly, it
was fun to watch, even though it was several years old. I decided to try my luck in writing a fic based on this,
but as I browsed on the category, most of the Hana Yori Dango fics have romance elements and nothing else.
So I decided to try a different genre, something that is not expected.
And so here it is…my first fic. And you're wondering what my title meant. Read on, and you'll soon see why.
This is catered fro the South East Asian fans. North American Fans are welcomed to see this.

At the Domyouji residence, Tsukasa is patiently waiting for his girlfriend, Tsukushi Makino to arrive at the
front of his gate. The time now is 12:30, and they were supposed to be going out by 12:00. Fifteen minutes ago,
Sojiro Nishikado is the first to arrive, as he came to give back the DVD player that he borrowed, and teased the
F-4 leader that Tsukushi dumped him for Rui Hanazawa. This made Tsukasa ticked off, and as Sojiro was about
to run, he was caught, and the F-4 leader trapped his F-4 compatriot in a swinging Full Nelson Lock (aka
the Masterlock). Rui and Tsukushi arrived, and were quite surprised to see what was happening, and told the two
to break up. After hearing the reason, she pinched both their ears, telling them to stop acting lime kids. Soon Sojiro
took out his trusted map and pointed out the areas that hey plan to go.
"Hey! This is supposed to be a date between me and Tsukushi! Why are you morons are tagging along??!!" Tsukasa
demanded. "Come on…we'll leave you alone, but we get to go to which place you wish to go. After that we meet
up at our return point." Sojiro defended. They all realized that Akira Mimasaka isn't with them, as he had left for
Barcelona, Spain a week ago to visit a relative who is staying there. Tsukushi and the three F-4 members agreed on
which place to go first, and left.
Inside the Domyouji residence, Kaede Domyouji was quite ticked, wishing that her son had chosen a higher-class
woman than dating a poor lass.

Odaiba prefecture, 13:00. Tsukasa and Tsukushi arrived here after agreeing to their plan on how to spent their
romantic date, while Akira and Rui went elsewhere to spend their day, and then meet back at the meeting place
once it's time to go home. Tsukasa decided to start their first date by going to the park. Looking at the map and
brochure, they decided to try out the Odaiba park as they find it quite romantic. They drove their car towards their
destination, and arrived within ten minutes. To their surprise, the park was almost full, as the park is packed with
family members going there for a family picnic, and the F-4 leader sighed, as he was hoping to spend the day alone
with his love, but Tsukushi told him to let it go, as long as they're together. Sighing in defeat, Tsukusa agreed and
searched for a perfect spot.
Five minutes later, as they were looking for a perfect spot to sit on, several children seemingly recognized the F-4
leader, and approached him. Tsukasa was sweat-dropping as more children, boys and girls, came to him to steal a
glimpse. Tsukushi took out her videocam and took footage of Tsukasa being mobbed by the children.
"Tsukushi…don't1 it's embarrassing!", he pleaded, as the children cling to him as he were a stuffed toy. "Don't be
such a killjoy! The kids actually liked you!" she chirped as continued to take footage of her boyfriend being lobbied.
The children's parents came and intervened, and apologized to him, but also complimented him for being a sport and
capturing their children's hearts. After that, they left, and Tsukasa had to arrange his clothes after being "trampled".
She giggled at her lover's sour reaction, but they eventually found a spot. They laid out the picnic mat and unloaded
the food. After 20 minutes of consuming their food, they went on to cuddle each other, and were about to kiss, when
Tsukushi notices a young boy, at about the age of 12, staring at them. She was staring intently at the boy's rather cute
stuffed animal, which is colored white and resembled a polar bear. Tsukasa was getting a bit jealous at the way she's
looking at the younger boy. Soon, the boy's elder cousin arrived and told the boy that snack time is ready, and
Tsukushi was a bit surprised to see the stuffed animal began to move and talk. Curiously, she approached the boy.
"Excuse me…what type of battery do you use on your stuffed toy? It moves and walks, and I find it cute.". But the
stuffed toy isn't really a toy. It was a Digimon named Polarmon, and it reacted to what the girl said.
"Hey, I'm not a toy…I'm for real. But I'm pleased that you find me cute.". Tsukushi was surprised to see and hear
this, as she heard a lot of rumors about Digimons, but she didn't expect to see one here. Tsukasa approached her and
was getting rather jealous. "You were staring at this little tyke? I thought you were staring at this kid.". "Ohh…so getting
jealous, huh? Missy, why not dump this loser and go with me? I'm cuter that this guy, who's the hot-tempered F-4
kook.".
Tsukasa got pissed and strangled the polar bear-digimon, but the digimon made a rather hilarious plea. "Help! Help!
Rape Rape!". Everyone within the park heard this, and saw the commotion. Several elderly women began to reprimand
the F-4 leader of the perceived action. "How dare you?! Molesting a young animal! You have no manners! Is this how
you learn that at school?". Tsukushi was a bit shocked, but giggled at the scene, and Polarmon grinned, and Tsukasa
became more agitated, and proceeded to strangle the Digimon. "You little, digital freak! I'm gonna shave your fur like a
sheep until your naked!". Polarmon became scared and blew a breath, and Tsukasa's head was covered with ice. The
boy was embarrassed by this and grabbed Polarmon away. "Polarmon1 stop that1 you'll only get yourself in trouble…" .
"He started it! And haven't you heard? He's the hot-head of the F-4 members, so it's fitting to cool him off…".
Ten minutes later, The boy left after cooler heads prevail, but not without Polarmon, receiving a pair of black eyes,
and Tsukasa getting berated by his love for his temper. The lovers continued to eat their snacks, and after that, they
decided to go to other places that have a romantic feel to it. They boarded their car and left.
They were unaware, however, that an enigmatic man is watching them, observing their every move. Seeing enough,
he looked at the picture, which has all the images of the F-4 members. He then decided to go to the next target:
Sojiro Nishikado.
To Be Continued…

Feel free to send reviews. Criticisms are also welcomed. But I preferred some reviews. This fic will be quite short,
in terms of chapters.
Let me know what you think of this, and let me know what areas that are needed to improve.
Preview:
Rui Hanazawa is next, and there he does a series of good deeds that would give him more respect, and find out who
the mysterious stalker is.
