Yo! So let us see how the others are doing. My thing is also acting funny so you might see this late. I don't own anything.

Angel Beats!

"Hey. Hey! Anima, wake up! Wake up!" Sekine yelled at Anima. She gently slapped her face and shook her. Anima gently opened her eyes. She squinted her eyes due to the light and that her vision was slightly blurry.

"Sekine? Where am I?" Anima asked, sitting up from the bed. She looked around and saw that she was in Iwasawa's place.

"Your in Iwasawa's apartment. After you fainted, Otonashi brought you here. Iwasawa is in the grocery store right now with Raven and Otonashi. Otonashi got an apartment here. The funny thing is that his apartment is right next to Iwasawa's!" Sekine said, having a creepy smile across her face.

"How is that funny? Isn't that a coincidence not a funny thing?" Sekine's smile grew bigger.

"Well, if their apartments are next to each others. If we leave them alone to go to our own homes, I wonder what would happen?" Anima realized what she meant.

"They just met each other again! Why would you think that?! Also they don't even know each other that much!" Anima yelled at her. 'I will not have clean dreams tonight.'

"Who knows?" Sekine shrugged and walked to the kitchen.

Anima sighed. She heard Sekine fiddling with glass.

"No wonder Iwasawa needed to go to the grocery store. She really needs food." She heard Sekine mumble.

Sekine came back with a plate of strawberries.

"Here, eat something. You've been out for 5 hours. You must be hungry." Anima mumbled a thank you and ate.

The door slammed open.

"We're back! Is Ani awake yet?" Raven yelled. Iwasawa, Otonashi, and Raven placed the brown bags on the table.

"Yeah, I'm awake."

"Anima, are you okay?" Iwasawa asked, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Yeah, just a bit shaken up." Anima said.

"What exactly happened to you back in the park?" Otonashi asked.

"I… I saw your friend Yui. Then… I remembered something. It was a memory of me meeting Yui… in the afterlife. She was putting posters up and I saw the posters. It was about one concert of Girls Dead Monster. She told me that I was in the afterlife. Then when I saw Otonashi. I remembered how I met him… then it was all black." Anima explained. The room went silent.

"So you really died." Raven said in disbelief.

"But the question is… why don't any of us from the afterlife remember you?" Otonashi asked.

"Who knows? Maybe, if we get to know Anima better we would remember our times with her! Anyways who's the next person to look for?" Sekine asked, wanting to end the silence.

"Iwasawa you decide. I already chose last time. Well, sort of." Everyone looked at Iwasawa who was deep in thought.

"Let's look for Irie next."

"Alright. I'll call my friend up and ask if she saw a… long lavender haired girl with lavender eyes?"

"Yup that's Irie." Sekine confirmed, nodding her head.

"Alright. We'll search for her tomorrow. Everyone should head home and get some rest." Anima announced.

After everyone left and Iwasawa explaining to Anima that she told their boss that she felt sick, it was only Iwasawa and Otonashi. It was silent between the two.

"Sekine told me that you helped everyone move on from the afterlife." Iwasawa said quietly.

"Yeah, it took me a while to pass on myself, but I was able to." Otonashi replied.

"I see…" Another moment of silence.

"Is there something wrong Iwasawa?"

"No, I just want to thank you."

"Thank me?" Otonashi gave a confused look at Iwasawa.

"Yeah. For helping the other's moved on. Never thought you had it in you Mr. Amnesia." Iwasawa said, smiling at Otonashi.

"Just call me Otonashi please. I don't have amnesia anymore either."

"Oh? You got your memories back?" Iwasawa looked at Otonashi curiously.

"Yeah, I did." Otonashi began to explain his life before he went to the afterlife.

"Wow, you must've saved many lives." Iwasawa commented.

"Yeah…" Otonashi looked at the ground. 'Kanade…'

"You should get some rest. We have a long day ahead of us." Iwasawa said, placing a hand on Otonashi's shoulder and smiling at him. He smiled back and left a couple minutes after.

Iwasawa sighed as she heard the door close. 'We found Sekine. Now we only have Hisako, Irie, and Yui. Also the others… I wonder how they're doing in this second chance of life.' Iwasawa took a deep breath and smiled. 'I wonder how I met Anima in the afterlife. I hope she regains her lost memories.'

Iwasawa took a quick bath and dressed in shorts and a white shirt. She lies in her bed and slowly fell asleep.

"Iwasawa? Are you awake?" Otonashi knocked on her door. The door opened and Iwasawa stood in front of him.

"Yeah. You got a call from Anima?" She asked as she stepped out and locked her door.

"Yeah, I wonder what time that girl even wakes up."

"Who knows? Come on, we better get going." Iwasawa began to run to the restaurant that she and Anima worked at.

"Wait up!"

"YOU GUYS ARE LATE!" Anima yelled at Otonashi and Iwasawa, who recently came.

"Jeez, you expect us to get here in 20 minutes?" Otonashi asked.

"She sounds a lot like Hisako, doesn't she?" Sekine whispered to Iwasawa, as Otonashi and Anima bickered.

"She does, except she's more…" Iwasawa thought of the perfect word.

"Anima is a strange one. She has many different personalities in different times. But she's mostly quiet, shy, headstrong, kind, gentle, and sociable." Someone said behind them. The two looked behind them to see a teenage girl standing in front of them.

The girl had red past shoulder length hair and golden eyes.

"Sorry if I scared you. My name is Lily. I'm a friend of Anima. I'm also the one who helped look for the kid over there." She pointed at Sekine.

"Don't forget that if you hit the right nerve, Anima turns into some wild beast." Raven commented.

"What? A wild beast?" Sekine asked.

"She means Anima could be really angry if you hit the right nerve. She gets mad very easily." Lily said. Lily turned to Anima, who stopped arguing with Otonashi, surprised she didn't hit his head.

"Alright kiddo. So we are looking for a long lavender haired girl with lavender eyes?" Lily asked her.

"Yeah, her name is…" Anima placed a hand in her chin, thinking.

"Miyuki Irie. That's who we are looking for." Sekine said.

"Give me a couple minutes." Lily said, pulling out her phone.

"Alright! It seems like your friend goes to Hiradachu High School. Meaning she should still be at school now." Lily explained to the group.

"That's the same school I enrolled to! Yes! I get to see Irie everyday next week!" Sekine exclaimed.

"Same here." Otonashi said.

"I'm enrolling there as well." Iwasawa said, quite surprised.

"What a coincidence. Guess you guys will see each other everyday now." Anima said.

"So, how are we going to get Irie?" Raven asked.

"I got an idea." Lily said, smirking evilly.

Irie walked nervously to the principal's office. What did she do wrong? She paid attention to class, she followed the rules of the school. Why did the principal call her? She took a deep breath and opened the door of the principal. She felt like fainting. Iwasawa and Sekine were standing in front of her with Otonashi and 3 other girls behind them.

"Sekine? Iwasawa?" She asked. Her eyes began to water as she saw the two smile at her.

"It's been a long time, Irie." Iwasawa said.

"Miss me?" Sekine teased.

"SEKINE! IWASAWA!" Irie hugged the two girls. She began to cry. Iwasawa patted her head to calm her.

"I never thought I would see you two again." Irie said as she wiped the tears from her eyes. She let go of them.

"Well, here we are!" Sekine exclaimed happily.

Anima chuckled lightly as she watched them. She was glad that Iwasawa was reuniting with her friends.

"Who are you guys?" Irie asked the 3 girls beside Otonashi.

"I'm Lily. The one with short hair is Raven. The other girl is Anima." Lily said pointing at Raven and Anima as she said their name.

"How did you guys find me though?" Irie asked.

"Well…" Sekine looked at Anima. Anima simply nodded and explained everything to Irie.

"So, you lost your memories from the afterlife?"

"Yeah. Pretty much. I remember how I met Yui and Otonashi but other then that, I got nothing." Anima explained. Irie nodded.

"We got Irie next is Hisako isn't it?" Otonashi asked.

"That's right. So…" Iwasawa trailed off.

"Once we get Hisako-Sempai, Girls Dead Monster will be reunited!" Sekine exclaimed happily.

"Well, sorry we intruded your school time Irie. I'm going to walk around the school. The principal recognized me cause Iwasawa is enrolling here. He gave us permission to look around the school until Irie is dismissed." With that, Anima left the room with her guitar shouldered.

'Where the heck is the music room?' Anima thought looking around for a music room to practice. She sighed. 'At least we found Sekine and Irie. I wonder why I can't remember them though…' Anima smiled. 'Well, no rush really. Everything went by so fast though.' Anima turned to the corner and found what she was looking for. She opened the door and saw a drum set, 3 electric guitars, and a bass. Her head began to hurt.

"What the hell!?" She clutched her head as her vision turned white.

Flashback

Anima opened the door. It was empty besides 3 electric guitars, an acoustic guitar, a drum set, and a bass. There were a couple desks and chairs as well. She picked up the acoustic guitar.

"I wonder if I played a guitar when I was alive." She asked herself as she strummed the guitar. She began to hum a tune, without even noticing.

Kao wo awashitara kenka shite bakari
Sore mo ii omoide datta

She closed her eyes, listening to the sounds the guitar was making.

Kimi ga oshiete kuretan da Mou kowaku nai
Donna fujiyuu demo shiawase wa tsukameru Dakara

She opened her eyes. 'Why… Why does this song sound so familiar?' She thought.

Hitori demo yuku yo Tatoe tsurakute mo
Kimi to mita yume wa Kanarazu motteku yo
Kimi to ga yokatta Hoka no dare mo demo nai
Demo mezameta asa Kimi wa inain da ne

The door suddenly burst open. Anima stopped and saw 4 girls at the doorway.

End of Flashback

Anima's head stopped pounding. Her eyes were wide and she was panting.

"What… What was that?" She stood up and looked at the electric guitar.

She quickly grabbed it. She took a deep breath. She began to play a tune that sounded so familiar to her.

Fukigen sou na kimi to sugoshite
Wakatta koto ga hitotsu aru yo
Sonna furishite tatakau koto ni hisshi
Itsu made mo Kaenaide Koori no you ni
Natsu no hizashi atsukute mo tokezu ni ite ne
Kitto saki ni Utsukushii hyouga ga aru yo
Katachi aru sonna kokoro Dare datte kidzukeba motteru Kimi mo motteru

She stopped when she saw a girl about a year older then her standing in the doorway. The girl had long brown hair in a ponytail and grey-silver eyes. She was panting and looking at Anima. Then Anima's vision turned white when they locked eyes.

Flashback

Anima looked at the brunette below her sitting down.

"Are you sure about this Hisako? I mean isn't this the last song Iwasawa wrote before she left?" She asked Hisako.

"I know you still haven't regain your memories, but I'm sure Anima. After all, Iwasawa always wanted to sing with you. She knew you had something to do with music before." Hisako said.

Anima looked at the sheet of papers. She smiled.

"Alright! Let's start practicing, shall we?"

End of Flashback

"Hisako?"
