Chapter Six: Stuck-The Yin & Yang
---♣---
"I can believe this. Isn't she the one who asked us to come to this carnival?" Yuki said looking across the table at his older sister. She was licking a green ice pop. They were sitting at a metal table with tiles at their feet. It was at a little tea shop that was there before the carnival planted itself there for the time being.
"But she's terrified of clowns." Momoe said. She leaned across the table ice pop in hand. "Wanna lick. It's green grape."
He shrugged and held her hand to keep it steady and bit off the top. Momoe placed her hand over his mouth so it wouldn't shock his teeth. Girls walking nearby we watching and blushed. Kyoya took note of this. It was almost like Yuki and Momoe would be the first set of twins to push down Hikaru and Kaoru.
"So kawaii..." they muttered. It was distracting them so much that they almost slipped on a spill that was on the tile. One of the girls almost fell, but luckily Kaoru caught her in time. A blush spend across her face when she looked up at him.
"Are you alright?" he asked her. She nodded her head rapidly, but stayed quiet. Her friend curtly started to pick up her fallen items when Hikaru started to help her.
"Let me help you." he said picking up the rest of the items and placing them back in her bag.

Kyoya leaned over Yuki and Momoe who was tugging at her short hair. She loosed them down and it stopped right to about her chin.
"You know you two look alomost identical." Kyoya said. His hand was on the table and he was leaning towards Yuki.
"We know. Our eye colors and height make us nonidentical." they spoke at the same time.
"Sometimes we dress alike. If Yuki wants me to wear dresses and skirts we won't dress alike." Momoe said.
"It almost looked as if you stole Hikaru and Kaoru's spotlight for a moment." he said pushing up his glasses.
"Stealing their spotlight?" Yuki questioned. Momoe turned to look at Hikaru and Kaoru who were helping up the two girls.
"They were distracted when they saw your 'performance'." he added.
"When she let me have some of her ice pop...?" he said unsure and Kyoya nodded. The two blushed, realizing that it was their fault the girls got distracted.

Haruhi was tending to Shinju's wounds from her fall with Kyoya's first aid box. Tamaki took one of Shinju's cosplay costumes and dressed like a nurse, so Haruhi was supposed to be the doctor and she was supposed to be the patient.
Tamaki Inner Mind Theatre
"Disinfectant." Tamaki said holding his hand out. Haruhi handed it to him.
"Are you sure that the operation will be a success?" she asked.
"Do you doubt me?" he said. She shook his head.
"Scalpel." she was about to hand it to him, but she accidentally cut herself. She hissed when she felt if cut through her gloves. Tears built up in her eyes.
"Doctor I've wounded myself." she cried. He held her hand forgetting about the dying patient. He removed the glove and used the disinfectant to clean her hand, it stung a little bit so she winced. He leaned down and kissed her palm and cupped he cheek.
"A kiss will make it better, nurse Haruhi." Their noses almost touched when-
"Hey you idiot wake up and give me the gauze!!!" Shinju yelled. Tamaki blushed and scrambled to get it out of the box. He quickly handed it to Haruhi, so he wouldn't upset Shinju any futher. And that was the end of Tamaki's inner mind theatre.
"Ugh...when I find Suzumu I'm going to kill her." Shinju said looking at Haruhi.
"Why?"
"Be cause she left me with that thing." she said distastefully at Tamaki who sat away from them and drew figure eights in the sand with a twig.

Amaterasu tried to get away from the madness. But unfortunately for her, the Hitachiin twins caught up with her.
"Get away from me. I'm looking for my cousin." she said scratching her arm.
"You actually have a soft spot?" Hikaru said.
"And you're going to find her?" Kaoru added.
"No, she has my bag and I want it back." she said.
"Is it name brand?" they asked.
"No."
"An antique?"
"No."
"Then we don't care." they followed her as she entered the Wonder Maze. It was made up of bushes, shrubs and glass. She moved left, right, right, up, diagonally, up, up, up, right, left, etc.
"Why don't you just call her hand phone?" they asked after a while.
"Don't you think I thought of that already?" she snapped.
"So why you do it?"
"I left my Raspberry in my bag, and she had my bag."
"So we have our phones give us the number." they said.
"You think I know her number. That's the purpose of the Raspberry!" she yelled at them. The room suddenly went dark.
"Yea! Cheap special effects!" they clapped their hand. Amaterasu glared at them and reached for the walls. 'Glass, huh?' she thought.
"I think we're lost." Kaoru started. He reached for Hikaru's hand.
"What do you mean we? I can get us out of here." she said.
"How could a tiny girl like you get us out of here?" they said.
"Don't underestimate me." she said smiling to herself in the dark. Her hand resided on the shrub and she felt around for glass. Her hand accidentally pressed against Kaoru chest. Her hand moved across his arm and she used her other had to find the glass. Of course she wasn't aware that her action made Kaoru flush. He could feel some sort of metal against her soft hands.
"Alright I found it. Step back." she said letting go of his arm. She stepped back a bit and stood in an upright stance. She swung with too much force intended to her hand got cut. The next glass she jumped in the air and shattered it with her foot when her leg crashed into it. She could see light passing through the shrubs and knew they were close to the opening. Amaterasu then karate chopped them a door way.

People jumped back startled to hear crashing and tumbling from inside. Amaterasu jumped out from the darkness. Hikaru and Kaoru shaking with fear crawled out.
"Oh get up you--" she was cut short by a man who grabbed her wounded hand and furiously started shaking it. She inwardly winced, but refused to show pain.
"Congratulations you found the way out of the Wonder Maze!" A man with a toupée on. A model in a pink spaghetti strapped dress who had silky black held up a check of
¥300,000.
They held a camera to her face.
"Well little girl what are you going to do with the money you've won?" he asked.
"Give it away to charity." she answered though her teeth.
"All of it?!" he asked again.
"Yeah, that's what I said! Are you going deaf, just as bad as you're going bald?!" she ripped off his "hair" and grabbed on the camera lens and broke it with her bare hands. She shoved the check back into the model's arms and walked away. With Hikaru and Kaoru behind her

Suzumu was sitting under a Sakura tree with her head resting against her knees. She was crying. She didn't even know why she chose to come. Her obliviousness...she should have realized that there might have been clowns there. After all it is a carnival.
She could sense a presence behind her so she quickly looked beside herself to see none other than Kyoya there. No one except Suzumu had known that they had gone to school together when they were in elementary school. She waited for him to talk. He wasn't the same Kyoya she used to know. The old one was more verbal and was willing to tease her over silly things. Like when they were in first grade and she made him cookies, but they got burnt and she didn't know she was suppose to put the sprinkles on after you bake them. She missed that Kyoya.
"I remember here? Do you?" he said. She looked up at him with a tear stained face.
"What are you talking about?"
"You really don't remember?" he asked. She shook her head and rubbed away the tears with the sleeves of her shirt. He stopped her and handed her his handkerchief. She rubbed her finger across the embroidered stitchings. It was a picture of a purple rose that had little beads around the edges. He held out his hand and she took it.
"We planted this tree, when we were about ten. Before you vacationed in Australia and then moved to China." he said. She looked up at the tree an noticed it wasn't fully developed, but it was enough for raw petals to grown. She could tell he was sad, but his voice hid it so well.
"Well, my father is Chinese and Australian and my mother is Japanese. I have to be in all tree countries, not just one..." she looked down at her feet. "Did we? We did! I mean if it's still there..." she dropped down to her knees tucking the handkerchief in her pocket and dug. Whatever she was searching for, it wasn't buried too deep.
"You kept your half right, because I didn't want mine to leave Japan if I left. I knew where ever you went you'd always come back that's why I didn't ask you to put yours in. It was so even if I was far away you wouldn't have to think that because I would always sort of be here." Suzumu's fingers his a rusty silver box and she opened it to find the Yin half of the necklace she had gotten in China. Her half was mostly gold with a little bit of silver.
Kyoya's half should have been silver with very little gold.
"Do you still have it?" she said looking up at him hopefully. His hand reached into his shirt and he pulled out the Yang. She smiled. 'He's still the same Kyoya' she thought.
