Shugo Hearts Chapter 2: Shatter
(? P. O. V)
I'm cold.
"Milady!"
I opened my eyes slightly, just in time to see a group of maids run towards me. Why does everything look so funny? Am I on the floor? That explains the hard thing under me. It's cold too. But it isn't what is making my blood freeze.
"Milady! Are you alright?" one of the maids asked frantically.
"He's . . . He's . . ."
"Milady?"
I extended my hand into the air, as if someone would grab it. "He left me . . . Again . . ."
"Who? Milady? Milady!"
My arm fell limp again and I fell into deep black unconsciousness.
Why aren't you here?
(Minako P. O. V)
"Ow, ow, ow," I muttered as I poked my sprained ankle.
"Stop touching it," my mother scolded.
"But . . . It's so swollen. It looks like a disgusting pimple!" I groaned and leaned back against the hospital bed.
I hadn't told Nagi I came here. He'd find out eventually, but still. I'm still upset about what he said about me. I can't believe he said it out loud. In front of everyone!
"I'll be back, Minako."
I nodded. "Kay. Bye Mom." I waved once and watched her leave the room. The door closed shut behind her with a click and the room fell into a deep silence.
"So creepy," I grumbled. "I hate hospitals."
Help . . . Help me . . .
I gasped and looked around the room. Where had that voice come from?
Please . . . Help . . . I must . . . Find . . .
"Who's there? Where are you?"
The mirror on the table by the bed began to glow. I gasped sharply and watched as the image of a girl appeared on the mirror. I quickly grabbed the object and placed it on my lap.
"H-how did you get in there?"
The girl looked so sad, tear drops were in the corner of her silver eyes, before sliding down her pale cheeks. Her long brown hair was curly. I could only see her from her shoulders up, but she seemed to be wearing some kind of fancy black and red dress with a matching red and black choker around her neck.
Help . . . Me . . . she whimpered.
"Help you get out? How?"
Alice . . . Oz . . . Find them . . .
"You know Alice? Who's Oz? I only know Alice."
Find them . . . Tell . . . I am here . . . Help . . . Out . . . Must . . . her words were fading in and out, making it difficult to understand. But I think I got it.
I nodded and looked around. I needed to get out of here.
Hurry . . . Before . . . Comes . . .
"Comes? Who comes?" I asked.
The girl continued to cry and suddenly, the glass shattered, the pieces flying out. I screamed and threw the mirror to the floor. Oh my goodness. What do I do now? The mirror is broken. How do I help the girl now?
Maybe Alice and this Oz guy can figure it out.
(Alice P. O. V)
I glared at the blonde as he began to flirt with the girls in the class. The teacher had already left and it was time to go home.
"Oi!" I shouted. "Manservant!"
Oz turned to me and smiled. "Yes, Alice?" he asked sweetly.
I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. "Come on. We're out of here."
Oz nodded and turned to the girls. "Sorry, but I have to go now."
"Aw. Do you have to?" one girl asked.
"I'm afraid so."
I growled and walked out of the room, only to walk into Seaweed head. "What the hell are you doing here?" I asked.
He glared down at me, his eyebrow twitching in annoyance. "Why you . . . Stupid Rabbit! I'm a teacher here, remember?"
I rolled my eyes, recalling that. "Oh yeah." I began scratching my ear. "You're the math teacher, right?"
Gilbert slammed the book he was holding onto my head, hard. "Stupid Rabbit! I'm your English teacher! You had me first period for goodness sake!"
I growled. "Damn it! Don't hit me Seaweed head!"
"My name is not Seaweed head!"
Oz came out the room at that moment and chuckled. "The gang's all here."
I scowled at him. How could he be so damn happy all the time? Ugh! It was irritating. Really irritating. I need meat.
"Oz," the Seaweed head said. I wouldn't even think his real name after he hit me. "aren't you worried about getting back home?"
Oz blinked twice. "Huh? No. Why?"
"We don't belong here," the man with gold eyes said. "We should try to find our way back home. To our time period."
Oz laughed. "Gilbert, don't you remember? We were sent here on a mission. We can't go back, even if we wanted to. We have to finish what we came here for."
I nodded and smiled smugly. "Yeah. Besides, I like this time period better. I can have meat whenever I want, and it's easier to get." I began drooling just thinking about one of those fast food places I had eaten from. That thing they called a burger was so damn good.
"Oz!" I shouted and pointed to my manservant. "Bring me to McDonalds!"
"Huh? Now?"
I nodded. "Yeah! Now!"
"Alice!"
All three of us blinked in confusion and turned to face the voice that had called me. It was that Minako girl. Wait! Shouldn't she be at the hospital?
I watched her limp towards us. When she was close, she pointed at me. "I need your help!"
"Me?" I asked and crossed my arms over my chest. "Why?"
She smiled wearily. "I don't think you'll believe me. But I need you and some guy named Oz."
Oz smiled and stepped forward. He grabbed Minako's hand. "Why, that would be me, beautiful lady."
I kicked Oz to the side. "Damn it! This is no time for flirting! Uh . . . I think . . ." I looked back at Minako. "What is this a time for?"
"Uh . . ." Minako stared, dumbfounded at Oz's body lying on the ground.
"He's fine," I grumbled and watched Seaweed head go over and help my manservant. "So, speak."
"Oh . . . A girl in a mirror. She told me to tell you and Oz that she was there. But then the mirror broke and now I don't know where she is so I was hoping that you would. She said she needed to get out but she didn't tell me why and she didn't tell me her name or anything about her," came her response in a rushed manner. Everything sounded like one long, confusing sentence to me.
But I understood what I needed to.
I looked at Oz. "She called."
Oz rubbed the back of his head and winced. "Huh? You don't mean?"
I nodded. "Rosemary."
(Rosemary P. O. V)
I stared at my bloody hands. Why? Why had the mirror shattered? I don't . . . I don't understand.
"Milady!" one maid shouted and came running to me with some bandages. I watched her bandage up my wounded hand in shock.
Why? What or who had done that?
The maid taking care of my wound looked up at me and smiled sadly. "Are you hurting yourself because he left?"
My eyes widened and I shook my head quickly. "No! That is not it at all! It was an accident!"
"Lady Rosemary, forgive my boldness, but he is not coming back."
"No!" I screamed. "He will come back! I know he will!" I smiled sadly at my lap. "He promised he would always come back. He promised."
I looked over at the mirror again, my worst fears coming to mind. What if he broke the mirror? Was he stopping me from going and finding him? Was that it? Did he not want me to try?
A tear rolled down my cheek. "Big . . . Brother."
Why did you leave? Why did you leave me all alone again? It's cold. I don't feel good. Am I becoming sick again?
(Alice P. O. V)
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIND HER?" I shouted and shook the damn clown. He smiled at me, that creepy doll of his in his hands.
"I'm sorry, Alice-kun. But Rosemary must contact us for me to be able to bring her out~"
I growled. "But obviously, she can't! The mirror shattered, meaning someone is trying to stop her!"
Oz hummed in confusion. "Why would anyone stop her? Who can even stop a human chain?"
"Human chain?" Minako asked.
I sighed. "Someone tell this chick everything," I ordered.
"That isn't a good idea~ Alice-kun."
I glared at the albino man. "We already know about those thang elf thingies and how they transform the guardians. Why not tell her about us?"
"What?" Minako gasped. "You know about Charas?"
Charas? Is that what they're called? That's a stupid name.
Sharon giggled and nodded. "I suppose we should fill her in."
"Good," I grumbled and turned to the clown. "Now! FIND A WAY TO GET ROSEMARY HERE OR I WILL KILL YOU IN THE SLOWEST AND MOST PAINFUL WAY POSSIBLE!"
The males in the room cowarded in fear (well, Break just laughed nervously)
"Alice is scary," Oz whined.
"I'll show you scary if I don't see Rosemary next to me in two minutes."
Damn it. All of these guys are useless! I swear.
Rosemary, what is so important? Why do you want to come here? Are you looking for someone?
Just then, the door to the room opened quickly and in stepped someone I never would have expected to see here. Everyone gasped.
He held onto the doorframe, leaning forward slightly as he panted for air. Obviously, he ran over here. He looked up at us, his brown hair messy from the run. He opened his silver eyes, they looked emotionless as usual.
"What the hell? Ash?" I shouted.
Hello everyone -waves- Alice here. This is another collab Crystal and I are doing. We've actually Rp Shugo Hearts all the time, so to see that Crystal actually made this into a story is so exciting. X3 I'm so happy that she did this. Thank you Crystal! Please review and look forward to the next chapter that will be written by the magnificent Crystal herself :3
