Hi guys. D.v.H. here! It's been a very very long time since I put something up for this fanfic. Well, here's the second chapter. It's really short, but I hope you like the build-up so far. I'm going to add more to this chapter once I get around to it, but have fun nonetheless ^_^ Sorry for the long delay :|

I don't care

Beep beep beep.

The constant beeping annoyed me to no end. How am I supposed to get any sleep from this? And why the heck is there beeping in the first place? It's not like I have an electric alarm clock. My alarm clock always plays nice music; music that lets me go back to sleep, as God intended.

Oh god. I open my eyes wide open, with Haruhi filling the entirety of my vision.

"Go away…" I turn around to the other side of the bed, where I don't have to see her face. Now is not the time to be bothered by a hyperactive girl named Haruhi Suzumiya.

"Good morning to you too, jerk." I could almost hear the sickeningly sweet smirk plastered on her face. You have no idea how that made my stomach turn.

Something doesn't seem right. My bed feels a little too soft. I also can't hear any birds chirping. There's nothing but a constant hum of some engine – engine?!

My eyes burst open and I sit up. Oh my god she's in full uniform. Now you're probably thinking in your head that waking up to the sight of a cute girl in uniform is heaven ten times over. I say I just woke up in hell.

"Welcome to the Sagittarius!" This is not going to be pretty.

Haruhi immediately dragged me out of the bed, and to my surprise, I was already in uniform. How long she has planned this in her head? Does anything normal happen with Haruhi? Wait, why am I even asking? It is always going to be, forever and for always, a blatant "no".

"What is it now?"

"Whatever do you mean?" she says with a deviant grin, "I'm merely setting us up for a great battle against the rest of the Solar Empire…"

"The Solar what?!"

She gives me a disapproving frown.

"No pouting or shouting in the Sagittarius. You have no say anyway. Now let's go meet up with the rest of the Brigade."

How I wish I was still sleeping.

"Good morning Kyon." Itsuki, when will you wipe that stupid smile off your face? Honestly.

"Ah! Morning Kyon!" I gave a smile to Mikuru, albeit briefly.

"Where's Nagato?"

"Over here Kyon," said Haruhi, "Seriously, you need to start using your head." She smirked.

Nagato nods. I nod awkwardly.

They are all wearing uniforms.

"Weren't we in different command-ships before?"

"Yup. But I wanted to have breakfast first so I gathered everyone into the Mother-ship. LET'S EAT! Kyon, tab is on you." Even if I wasn't looking, I could feel the malicious grin oozing with evil all over me. Right on cue, I shudder.

Now that breakfast is over –

"Let's go kill some aliens!"

Everyone, except Haruhi of course, suddenly gets enveloped in this strange tube and is sent to their respective command-ships. This is gonna be a major pain in the arse for me.

"Kyon. You got the right-flank?"

"Yes Ma'am."

"Mikuru, you got the left?"

"Y-yes!"

"Itsuki, are you backing us up?"

"That's a definite yes Miss." (I swear I can hear his smile).

"Nagato! SPEAR-HEAD!"

"……roger…"

"What the hell HARUHI! We've got a ratio of 5 to the 2 million:1 AGAINST!"

"Call me Ma'am. And yes, that's the ratio. It's more fun that way!"

I'm gonna die before this battle ends.

(use your imagination ladies and gentlemen)

I can't. Believe. I'm still ALIVE. Thank God for Nagato and her specials.

This has got to end. I head for Haruhi's command-center, determined to get her to stop this nonsense.

"Haruhi."

"Yes?"

"If we continue any longer, I'm going to die. Stop. PLEASE."

"Hmmm…." She looks like she's going to give in. Is this a sudden win for me? Is it?! IS IT? IT IS!!!

I suddenly feel lips on my lips, and they're staying there pretty long.

"How about no?" she says, without even taking her mouth off mine. I just failed, didn't I?
