Nothing but Music
Konnichiwa! It's me again, Morri-chan! ((hands you something)) Here's the next chapter!
Last chapter, was just a regular day, yet twisted with love! Stan/Crystal pairings are great, aren't they? Yupp, I love 'em! Yet, I've tried to make the Tsuna/Pazu pairings become more visible! It isn't really working, is it?
Myuuu…drat!
This chapter may have to be SHORT. Like me. ((sob))
………………………………………………………………………………………………
"So, where do you want to go now, Ai-chan?"
Kether asked a very happy Sandy who was leaning on him, watching the sunset. The two love-birds had left the mall to slack off on the beach's soft sand, just to watch the sun-set.
Sandy sipped from her cream-soda, looking into the red-orange yet pink hues of the sky, and thinking. Kether waited, looking into the sky as well.
"Stan is probably waiting for me at home, so I think I should get going, Kether-kun…" Sandy giggled, leaning on his shoulder playfully. Kether pouted, listening to her words, knowing that their fun-time was over. "Aw, it's too bad, but maybe tomorrow?" he murmured, slipping a lock of hair away from her face.
Sandy giggled, getting up and brushing the sand off of herself. She then waited for Kether to get up and drive her home.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Sandy crept into her house silently, tip-toeing as silently as she could. She had said good-bye to Kether and watched him drive off into the night, she promised him that she would be picked up tomorrow.
She crept into the dark house; surely it was the living room, because the flooring turned from tile to carpet. She was just about to creep upstairs to her room when the lights suddenly flicked on.
She covered her eyes to protect them from the un-expected blare. But when she opened them, her sight revealed a very angry looking Stan.
"And where were you? You said you would be back later, not LATE." He spat, his arms folded into a very frustrated look. His gaze was set on no one but Sandy, and she gulped in fear. He was leaning on the frame of the door-way like the cool-acting cop in the spy movies and sandy was fiddling with the strap of her knap-sack like the burglar
"Stan, it's ok, at least I'm here and all--"
She was interrupted when Stan put up a slender finger, looking the other way. It meant to shut up. Sandy looked down at her socks, the carpet, anything to keep her gaze away from Stan's.
"You just made me worried, ok?" Stan started, finally shifting his gaze towards Sandy. He seemed to be at edge when she started to make her way towards the staircase, when he instructed:
"Just stay away from that Kether guy…or else"
Sandy perked up. Her ears couldn't believe what was happening. She couldn't believe her brother as well. Stay away from Kether-san! STAY AWAY!
"Y-you don't even know him!" Sandy retorted, pointing a resentful finger at him. Her eyes were wide with surprise and were almost rimmed with tears. Stan inhaled sharply and spat back:
"Oh, yeah, sure I know don't know him, but I do know that he'll run ya' into a hell's worth of trouble!" He yelled, regardless of her tears. Sandy started to choke out her words, finally spilling out:
"K-KIESERU!"
Stan's eyes widened in horror at that horrible re-mark. Sandy just back-sassed him for the first time! That did it…
"Don't swear to me, Sandy! You don't even know what you're doing!" he hissed, waving a wary finger.
"Shut up! You don't even know him, and already you're miss-judging him!" she screamed, flinging a pillow at him. Stan only blocked it with a strong arm and glared right back at her. Her eyes were red and she was inhaling deeply.
"Sandy, just--"
"STOP IT! YOU'RE NOT DAD!"
Stan froze in his spot. Who was she to call him a replica of "dad"? He watched her turn around and stomp up the stairs, slamming her door then after wards. BAN!
He waited a while for the vibration of the slam to stop, just to plop onto the couch, exhausted.
So…if I'm acting like dad…
Stan picked up the pillow Sandy threw at him in her awful rage. The black leather could almost reflect his face…
Then you must be a sure-goddamn replica of Mom…
Stan threw a pillow at the window, luckily, the glass not breaking.

Next day---
Again, today, our main heroines are stuck in a regular day, same classes, same schedule, same people. Or so they think…
Merodi chewed on her hamu sandwich heartily, as if she hadn't eaten in DAYS. The reason for that, was gym class, getting ready for the big volleyball game. "Girls against the boys."
Tsuna was sipping lightly on her Diet Coke and Crystal was flipping through her script for her play. She was getting better and better at the lines, often practicing them in front of her friends many times.
She was just starting to read the main act…Crystal squealed.
"Ahh! I have to do a kissing part in his play!" her eyes were the size of a turkey plate and her moth was wide open. In the background, Tsuna could hear the moans of people dying.
Tsuna looked up from her "shirushi's digest," sipping the last of her coke, the can making that weird sound when you were to slurp the last of its essence through a straw. Not only that, she was doodling small pictures of umeboshi, takoyaki and crystal sugar stars on that book. The doodles read: ryorishi-san, at the end of every one, a heart beside it.
"Of course, you did say that it was a romance play ne? Besides, you should've paid attention to the amount of girls trying to get the position of that role…"
"But still!" Crystal whined, clutching the script.
"But nothing, you just don't pay attention!" Tsuna argued, annoyed Crystal didn't really pay attention to the play span.
"Oh yeah, we--"
"Guys! Guys!"
Tsuna and Crystal both looked up to see a running Bijou coming towards them. She was flinging her arms around aimlessly as if there was an earthquake or fire. It seemed serious.
"Daijobou, Bijou-chan?" Tsuna asked, putting her arms down from her combat position. Crystal started to wonder too. Merodi, who didn't even know Bijou was here, let alone her presence, was still fixated on her schedule which was science next…
"Did you not 'ere!" Bijou panted, trying to catch her breath. Tsuna gave an "eh?" of question and Crystal gave a confused look back. There was an uncomfortable silence until Bijou sighed.
"Ze partners of that school that eez coming over has decided to come after lunch! They have arrived early from their flight from ze England!" Bijou remarked, shaking. Her face was rosy red, and her breaths were coming a bit slower now.
Tsuna dropped her can of Coke, the recyclable item making a clank, clank sound. Crystal only rolled her eyes. But then…
"Wha…"
Tsuna and Crystal looked over to see Merodi with her sandwich dropped and her schedule out of place. "Uh-oh…" Crystal murmured. She knew Merodi was still very wary of meeting her partner.
"Wh—WHAT!"
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Stan walked up the stairs to the attendant's hall, knowing he was meeting up with Hamtaro, Jingle and Spat. It was a small while before the end of lunch, and he was late for their get-together. He arrived to the meeting room, or so they called the usually spot. The 3 seemed to be waiting for him for hours, Spat was slacking off of his chair and Hamtaro had fallen out of his chair.
Stan sweat dropped at the scene. "Uh..eh-heh, sorry for being late, men!" He chuckled, lightly kicking Hamtaro off of the floor. Hamtaro made a sleepy "myaa" and got up. Spat huffed; annoyed his time was being wasted. "Well, you owe me for taking so long. I have an appointment with something called: Free time, got that!"
Hamtaro only sighed, his trade-mark smile adorning his face. Jingle didn't even respond. His gaze was fixated on a figure out-side, through his window.
They were always meeting up in this exact spot, just the four of them just to have a friendly chat. They were always busy with school and after-school stuff, never enough time to spend with themselves. They were friends after all.
"I heard Sandy was acting…a little woop-di-shit yesterday…" Jingle whispered to Stan, as he walked into the room. Stan only shook his head to ignore the thought. He didn't want to remember what happened last night. There was a deadly, yet poisonous silence.
"So, who has found a girl yet?" Spat murmured, trying to add a little flavour to the "conversation" well disguised as a graveyard play. They were the actors, acting like zombies.
Hamtaro blushed. "Uhh…"
Jingle chuckled. He knew Hamtaro was still a little naïve to have a girl friend yet. "You don't really have to explain Hamu-san" Jingle sighed. He sweat dropped. He had already known about what he did to a girl named Bijou, hearing that he rejected her just to be his friend. Sometimes, Hamtaro wouldn't know that even if he ment to do right, it was wrong.
Stan only smiled; looking out the window to see what exactly was Jingle looking at. It appeared to be Merodi, Crystal, Tsuna and Bijou running out the main courtyard to the science hall. They seemed to be late for something. But what? It was lunch hour, wasn't it?
He watched Crystal with her friends, and laughed when she tripped. Spat's ears perked up at the laugh and walked over to where Stan was. He followed Stan's gaze and saw Crystal…
"Hmm…I didn't know you went for the quiet, yet cute type…"
Stan blushed, probably for the second time in his life. "N-no, she's just the main actress for that play I was in, that's all!" Spat made a sarcastic "oh" and left Stan at his spot to fume.
"Spat, you have no shame and girl!"
"So, I don't really need a girl, what-so-ever!" Spat spat. (huh…?)
Jingle only sighed and went back over to the window to look at the girls, only to find them gone and in their place, a black limo. Jingle felt his fur prick up. He didn't like the looks of this…
His voice broke up the squabbling.
"Hey, I thought the Ayame students were only to arrive at the school tomorrow!"
Stan, Hamtaro and Spat stopped breathing for a moment. Stan was frozen in shock, Hamtaro had his "heke?" face on, and Spat was just giving Jingle the silent treatment.
"They're here already!"
Meanwhile…
Merodi sat in her seat gloomily, looking out of the window. The sun's light seemed to be very death-like today, or maybe it was just her. Maybe it was death-like because she felt like she was going to die…
Maybe she'll have to see if her new partner would actually like her. Again, she stared out the window, the sun's light seeming to get brighter and brighter, as a black limo drove in. Merodi gulped. It was time for her to speak with a new light.
………………………………………………………………………………………
The black limo stopped just in the middle of the courtyard, the sunlight bouncing off of the black exterior. Some people came to look at the limo in wonder, some even coming at least 13 inches away from the black limousine. Well, if you were any one of them, you would be surprised to see a huge black limo in the middle of your school's courtyard!
Finally the engine stopped, making the curious student's heart's stir. There was a pause, until the driver, an old, grey hamham with the longest goatee you have ever seen, stepped out of the driver's seat. He appeared to be stoic, not even minding the sight-see-ers. He was old, walking with a cane, and hobbling over to the passenger's seat.
It sorta took him a while, he didn't even reach it yet until the bell rang and everyone had to stop watching. He took the silver handle and finally as he was about to open it, the door slammed open, the poor old man being swacked with a door to the face.
There was a thud of the old dudes body as a figure stepped out. He looked around, and smirked.
The Ayame students had arrived.
