Chapter 4 – A Trip Back in Time

-

Dedicated to Shizune or better said kiariz. I hope you'll like it! ….And I don't own the TV show, it's a manga… I forgot the name. Ah! I think it was Perfect Girl Evolution, yes it was.

Sitting on the couch was Hotaru and Shizune at his house, they were watching TV. The TV show was very interesting; it was about a drama high school. 4 Boys had to help a girl become a 'lady' or else they have to pay rent. It was very funny and interesting. When the commercial went on Hotaru stood up and walked toward the kitchen.

"Hotaru-chan, where are you going?" Shizune asked.

"Popcorn." Hotaru replied as he pressed the microwave buttons. Shizune stood up and stood next to him, the microwave beeped and the popcorn was ready. He reached out to press the open button and when the door open a warp hole appeared.

"Huh?!" They got sucked in and when they opened their eyes they weren't at Hotaru's house. Around them was houses and they landed on grass, the village looked peaceful.

"Shinrei, Sakura." Hotaru pointed toward 2 approaching people, they looked a lot like Sakura and Shinrei but they were wearing odd clothes. Sakura was wearing the clothes a bit like Shinrei's but it was more feminine and instead of the skirt it was shorts. (Shinrei in the past, I don't know what it's called that the clothes he wears…)

"There you two are!" Sakura said while helping Shizune up and Shinrei helped Hotaru up. "Come on, time to get ready for your wedding."

"Huh?!" Shizune shouted as she was pulled toward a room by Sakura, Hotaru was pulled toward the opposite side by Shinrei and he looked a lot confused.

Inside the room Shizune saw Yuya and Storm there. Sakura waved then winked and left the room.

"What are you wearing? You're supposed to be inside your wedding kimono." Storm said and put on the wedding kimono and they both started to work on her hair. "We don't need any makeup, you look perfectly nice already."

"Huh?! What's happening and where am I?" Shizune asked.

"Don't you remember?" Yuya replied. "You're going to get married to Hotaru-san!"

"Wha-at?!"

"Lucky! I wish I could get married to Yuki…" Storm said as they finished her hair. Storm looked at herself in the mirror, her hair was in a pony tail and she was wearing a white kimono, it looked a bit baggy.

"Let's go hime. Your husband is waiting." Sakura said while entering and reached her hand out. The only thing different was that she had a sword in her belt, sighing Shizune took her hand and walked outside toward where the wedding was going to be held. (Hime means princess in Japanese.)

Hotaru looked around him, he was inside a room. Shinrei left leaving him alone with Akira and Yukimura. He looked confused and they wasted no time dressing him up. Once he was inside his proper wedding clothes they combed his hair.

"Hotaru-san, aren't you excited?" Yukimura asked and Hotaru shrugged.

"Where am I?" Hotaru asked.

"You're in 1604 and you're going to marry Shizune-san, don't your remember?" Akira replied and Hotaru shrugged once again.

"There! Time to see your hime!" Yukimura shouted and pushed Hotaru toward Shinrei. Sighing he went along with Shinrei to where the wedding was held.

They were both walking toward the wedding place; Shizune was in a carriage while Sakura was riding the horse and was guiding the carriage. Shizune calmed herself and thought this over. 'Let's see… I was watching TV with Hotaru-chan at his house and he went to make popcorn. We opened the microwave then a warp hole appeared! How do we get back to our time?! …' Her thoughts were interrupted as they stopped gently, the door opened and Sakura appeared reaching her hand out. Shizune took it and Sakura led her down the carpet, in front of Shizune and Sakura was Hotaru looking a bit confused. Everyone smiled and cheered as Shizune reached Hotaru and Sakura and Shinrei brought up the gifts. Shinrei was holding a hakama while Sakura was holding a suehiro (fan). Shinrei handed Hotaru the hakama while Sakura handed Shizune the suehiro. They both bowed and went back to sit down, a man appeared in front of Shizune and Hotaru. He said the words and they both nodded not knowing what was going to happen. As the man said "You may kiss the bride." They leaned in for the kiss and the warp hole reopened and they were at Hotaru's house again on the couch with the popcorn in front of them on the table.

"Huh? What happened?" Shizune asked and Hotaru shrugged. "Maybe it was just a dream…" They both looked at their hands and Hotaru was still holding the hakama while Shizune was still holding the suehiro. They both stared at their item for a few seconds then screamed. They stopped then looked at each other, they shrugged then looked back at the TV, and the show was over so Shizune stood up and left.

Later at home Shizune told her 2 best friends what she been through and it seemed so real, she even showed them the fan. Sakura took the fan and was examining it while Storm thought.

"… This is from 1604 during the Tokugawa shogunate." Sakura said and Storm agreed.

"Maybe it was real or maybe it was a dream…" Storm said and Sakura agreed while Shizune shrugged. "Don't worry about it…" Sakura handed the fan back to Shizune and went upstairs with Storm following. Standing there a bit confused she shrugged and went to watch the TV.
