I know this wasn't here the first time. Sorry for all those people who like reading them, this is my official second time posting now so please review! I had so much fun writing this. If you couldn't tell this is based off the song Alice of Human Sacrifice I'm working really hard to make this my best work! Please enjoy! And sorry it took so long to get the next chapter up ^/^
She followed him into the office, it wasn't anything special and for a second she didn't understand what was so special. The room was a basic a desk and leather chair a few pictures of the family besides that nothing. But Mr. Mashiba kept walking past it, and Fuyuki got the sense that this place was important but she didn't know why. He walked up to the emerald green lamp and clicked it off and on in a strange pattern, "Morse code." He explained seeing the puzzled look on her face.
The floor shook slightly and a staircase opened up on the floor, lights and Mr. Mashiba led the way. Fuyuki wanted to stop and turn around but he didn't look back so she followed. It was a short ways down and she soon found herself in a lab room. Jars, herbs, strange colored things, and a desk with bright lamps were about the room in some scattered yet organized way. "Over here." He pointed to the desk and amongst the neatly filed papers was a leather bound book. "It was your journal, not a diary, but your records of everything that was happening."
"Sounds like a dairy to me."
He laughed, "You're the one who insisted that it wasn't."
"Thank you Mr. Mashiba, this will be a big help."
"I suggest that you only read one entry at a time, or you might find yourself overwhelmed and cause yourself severe headaches."
"A migraine is nothing, I just need to figure out what's going on. I don't like this feeling of not knowing where I am or what's going on. I'm sure this isn't healthy."
He smiled, "Just be prepared to sow what you reap. I'll leave you to read alone."
"How do you know about this place, and what connection do I have to it?" She asked brushing her purple hair behind her ear.
"Read and you'll find out." He walked back up the stairs, she opened up the pages and flipped through them. There is so much, I don't want to waste my time on stuff I don't need to know. So maybe I should start on the first page I open up to. She flipped through and stopped on a page.
June 16th- I'm finished. I've found the two single most important things in the world and what can finally kill that annoying woman. The cure to Light Pocks, I've also managed to find out what causes it all in one sweep. With this single feat I can cure thousands of the suffering and reunite-
Fuyuki clutched her head as images of her experimenting with several different things, testing them on animals and willing citizens. The vision blurred for a moment the cleared as she came up the stairs dancing and running to Mr. Mashiba who grinned and danced with her. The memory went blank. Ow, that hurt a lot more than I thought it was going to maybe I should stick to two a day. She looked at the book and flipped to the last page not bothering to finish the one she was on. If I read the last one then I can figure out who did this to me and from there is should be a whole lot less painful. She rubbed her head and began to read.
July 1st- Today is the meeting with the KQ Alliance, officially the twenty second meeting but today is going to be special, we're going to make an attempt to kill that wretched, annoying woman who defies the laws of nature like she is something better than the rest of us. I am to show up for my part as the signal giver, there is a lot of pressure on me and if we fail then we shall only try again and again until-
Another vision came, fuzzy like a television not properly tuned. There was some kind of celebration going on and she was somewhere high up, somewhere very high up. Heavy things were in her arms and she kept checking certain areas. The vision blurred and Fuyuki clutched her head and glared out ahead of her wondering if knowing the past was really that important if it hurt this much. Mr. Mashiba had said that there was something that she needed to know, she tucked the book under her arm and headed up the stairs.
Mr. Mashiba chuckled seeing her come out of the room, "How many did you get to, you were down there for a while."
"Two."
He chuckled and took something out of his pocket, "Here, this is your own remedy. It'll clear you head right up."
She took the vial, "Thank you." She headed to the elevators and up to her room.
"Mommy your back!" Mizuki cheered from the couch, her father next to her, assisting with homework.
She only managed a weak smile, she grabbed a cup and filled it with water. She popped two into her mouth, "Don't become a druggie OK?" He smiled his dragonfly wings flitted on his back.
"I'll try not to, would you mind telling me where the bed room is?"
He stood up, "This way love." He led her to a dark room, she collapsed right onto the bed and went to sleep. "Good night, sweet dreams."
The doorbell rang, "Daddy Mr. Gakupo is here."
The father grinned, "Mizuki, go on to your room, Mr. Gakupo and I are going to have a talk."
"OK." She ran off to her room.
"Hello, come in." He sat back down on the couch. "So Kamui, what brings you here?"
"I was just wondering if Mrs. Tamura was going to come for work today, she hasn't come in a while and we're all getting worried."
"Oh, Kamui I didn't know you were going to be here." A girl said with a kind smile. She had short black hair, white cat ears and a cat tail that was elegantly waving about.
"Afternoon Yui, how was school?"
"Good. Kamui, is there a meeting going on today that I didn't know about?"
"No Yui, I just stopped by to see is Mrs. Tamura was back."
"If you would let me answer," Seiichi laughed, "She's in the other room trying to sleep, she's lost her memory and now has a headache."
"How did she lose her memory?" Kamui asked.
"She probably hit her head on something." Yui said making a sandwich, "She's alright isn't she?"
"Yes, she was brought home by some young man, Anan, Tomeo I think his name was."
Kamui smiled, "Is that so? I had heard he was the replacement for Bob, Queen Hatsune's right hand guardian."
"Well this ought to be interesting. I think we should so slay the Jabberwocky."
"After, our hero must have her sword isn't that correct? Besides the Jabberwocky won last time, we're going to have to get Fuyuki her memory back."
"Why the hell are you being so loud, Seiichi?" Fuyuki said hair messy. "Pardon me, I've just woken up. Who are you?"
"I'm your longtime friend and partner at the hospital, Gakupo, Kamui." He had purple hair a shade lighter than her own, a cool expression and a sly, passionate smile and soft purple eyes.
"I'm Yui, we're best friends." She smiled, "I also babysit your daughter when you guys are at work."
"Where you should be right now." Kamui said.
"Did I just surround myself with incompetent people, I have a headache and I can't remember a thing and you want me to work at a hospital."
He stood up, "That was the general idea, are you coming?"
She looked at her husband, "I think it'd be a good idea for you to be back in your home environment."
"No, I need smarter friends. I'm heading back to bed. Good night." She headed back into the room and shut the door.
"Looks like I'm sleeping on the couch tonight." Seiichi laughed.
Morning came with the gentle calling of Mizuki "Mommy! I can't find my dress!"
Fuyuki sat up and glared out into the darkness, her husband's voice came through, "Honey, please! I cannot find this thing for the life of me, where did you put it?"
"How could I have put it somewhere when I just got here?" She asked shuffling out of bed, the light hurt for a moment but they she saw the house in chaos. Cloths everywhere, breakfast burnt, trash full of things they had discovered searching for the little girls dress. "Where is Yui?"
"She left last night, like always."
"Oh, I got the impression that she lived here the way she just let herself in and made herself a sandwich." She sighed and looked around, "Alright. Enough, Mizuki did you check the laundry room?"
"Yes mommy, it wasn't there."
"Well we'll go look again, you Stupid, clean this up and make breakfast."
She rushed the little girl down the hall and into the laundry room. The washer and dryer were both going. The baskets had spilled over waiting to be cleaned, "Don't tell me you have just now started to do the laundry." She sighed to herself, she looked around there wasn't much else beside that and a cabinet that held all of the various fabric softener and cleaners. "Doesn't look like it's here after all." She said leading the girl out.
"Where is it?"
She shut the door and heard a clank, she opened it back up and looked behind the door. There was a little yellow sundress, she took it down, "Is this your dress?"
"Thank you mommy!" The girl squealed and took it and ran to her room to change. She headed back down the hall.
"I found the dress." The place was clean, she could almost see the floor and breakfast was almost done. "Well, I think I remember why I married you." She inhaled.
"There that and I get to do this." He kissed her passionately on the lips. She kissed him back. "Amnesia or not that's still one of the greatest kisses I've ever had." He paused for a second then chuckled, "I think I just took your first kiss."
Fuyuki rolled her eyes, "So, where do you work?"
"Me, I'm a mangaka artist."
"No, seriously what are you?"
He chuckled, and set down her plate. "I'm a chef."
She took a bite, "It's good."
"You dare doubt my talents, I'm the world's greatest chef."
"Mizuki, come get your breakfast." She watched the little girl rush out with her backpack shovel down her food.
"Bye mommy." She said and kissed her cheek, "Bye daddy." She kissed him as well. Then she left, "Oh good morning ."
"Morning Mizuki, is your mother awake yet?"
"Yes she is."
"Thank you, have a good day now."
"You too."
"Morning Mrs. Tamura, Mr. Tamura."
"Morning Gakupo," Fuyuki said, "I think I'm up for work today."
"Good then we should get going right now, while the Queen still has ample time."
"Good bye." She waved and left with Gakupo, "I've only met her once and yet I find myself not wanting to see her again."
"Well, you're going to be seeing her a lot more, I'm just glad that you have the same feelings for her."
"Why would that be a good thing? Hate is not an enjoyable emotion."
"I agree." He said opening the door for her then smoothly getting in on the opposite side, "However you are our leader. If you didn't hate her then there would be a problem." Fuyuki didn't say anything for a moment, processing the options she had. "I'll explain, it started a long, long time ago…"
