Misfit: my first shug0 chara st0ry!
Sirens blared and flashing red and blue lights shone brightly against the black night sky. It was blinding. The sound was deafening. Yes, that's probably why he couldn't hear. He must have gone deaf. Nagihiko Fujisaki watched the scene in front of him, completely frozen. He couldn't even feel his body anymore. It was as if he were stuck to his spot watching a silent movie. The paramedics moved around inside the blocked off area. All that was between the public and the grisly scene was a line of caution tape and a few police officers. Broken, bleeding bodies were being moved into ambulances to be taken to the emergency room. The medics white uniforms turned red as they worked. Red. Everything was red. Crimson was everywhere, painting the street with its vile existence. Nagi's eyes widened as one of the paramedics picked up a small girl whose long blond hair dripped blood from the wound on her head. The next was a different girl, this one with pink hair. One of her "x" clips clung to her ponytail for dear life as the hospital worker placed her on a stretcher and she was moved into the ambulance.
"Nagi…" Rhythm's voice said, pulling his mind away from what lay in front of him.
He didn't see Rhythm, but he knew he was there and saw everything. Nagihiko had completely forgotten that he was still in his character transformation. He began to tremble as guilt and pain finally set in. Tears began to fall as he suddenly turned and ran away from everything that's happened that night.
"Hey Nagi!" Yaya shouted as she ran up to him. She dragged Rima with her and only stopped when she reached him.
"Good morning, Yaya-chan, Mashiro-san." He greeted the two.
Rima 'hmmph'ed and proceeded to enter the school building. He sighed.
Tadase joined them, "Morning, Fujisaki-kun, Yaya-chan."
"Morning, Tadase-kun. Is Amu-chan here yet?" Nagi replied.
The blond boy shook his head, "No, she's going to be in later. She had an appointment this morning."
"What?! Amu-chii's not here?" Yaya said, disappointed.
"If we don't hurry we'll be late-dechu." Pepe said with a sigh.
Yaya raced inside, leaving Tadase and Nagihiko behind. The two walked toward the building.
"Is Temari with you?" Tadase asked.
Nagi shook his head and responded, "No. She's at home. Its nice having her back, I just wish she could be out with everybody else. It's unfair that she's paying the price for my secret."
Tadase nodded in understanding and the boys made their way to class.
Amu walked into the royal garden and greeted all her friends and they greeted her in return. Soon enough they were all seated around the table drinking tea.
"How did your appointment go, Amu-chan?" Nagi asked.
She sipped her tea and said, "It went well. I had to get three fillings, but it wasn't that bad."
"Is that why you were crying so much?" Ran asked.
"Ran!" Amu shouted.
Rima giggled and the bickering. Then the little blond looked at her watched and said, "I have to go."
Amu turned her attention to Rima, "Go?"
"Yes. I'm babysitting the neighbor tonight." Rima stated.
"Oh… ok." Amu replied.
Rima left and the others chatted idly. Yaya went home next, then Amu and Tadase. The last one left was Nagihiko. He picked up the dishes and prepared to head home. The sun was setting already as he exited the Royal Garden and found his way off school grounds.
"They all left you already."
Nagi turned to face the person who'd just spoken. He was surprised to see Ikuto leaning against the wall.
"They didn't 'leave me', they just went home early. It's not that big of a deal." Nagihiko stated.
Ikuto raised an eyebrow, "Really? You're not upset at all that you seem to be left behind when the more important Guardians run off to save the day."
"I-" Nagi began.
Ikuto walked up to him, stood right in front of him, looked down at the blue haired boy and continued, "It doesn't bother you in the least that you do all the planning, know exactly what to do, and then they take all the credit? Well then, you're a better man than I am…"
Ikuto smirked and walked away, leaving Nagi to think about what he was just told.
