Here's chapter 9! Thank you for the reviews! It really motivated me to continue this story! ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU! *bows*
"Oh I see. Nice to meet you Mocha. You mentioned Kana Sazusa? Yes, she's here. Do you want to see her right now?" Kurapika uttered then we led her inside the academy. At the same time, we were also touring her around.
"I think she isn't interested at all." I deemed and whispered to Kurapika, "Just let her see Kana already. She's bored now. Look.."
I thought of an idea. I stepped in front of her and spoke, "You know, it's dark already. Maybe you go meet her tomorrow don't you think? I think you're tired with your journey." I let out a cheerful smile. I hope this works… I led her back again when she shoved my hand away.
"Don't TOUCH me, kid." Mocha glared and cautioned.
I apologized and replied, "I'm sorry! It's just that-"
She pulled her katana with blazing speed and pointed the tip to my neck, "Don't go in my way! If you do, I'll cut you to pieces…" Mocha put it back and darted away.
"Are you okay Gon?" Kurapika checked if I had any wounds. (Well, I didn't have any! It's just the tip of her katana anyway!)
I nodded and brushed the dirt of my green shorts, "Yeah. She's a professional… I THINK? I felt her murderous aura just now. Maybe Mocha was about to use Hatsu on me."
"Gon, be careful." He warned. "That's girl is VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY-"
"Okay. Stop with those. I'm getting dizzy." I regained my position. "Yeah. I know. I'll be."
You're making me curious, Mocha-san. I'll definitely be your friend. I promise.
Mocha's POV
That Gon is a nuisance to my plan. Tch… I would have killed Kana way long ago! I grumbled when I used my katana to search for her. She'll definitely regret what she did to me…
"Dance of the sakura! Find the ripe fruit of the sunset!" I chanted.
[Flashback] – The Time when Kana was Leaving
"Nee, Takashi-kun, what are we going to do today? A date maybe?" I linked my arms to his, grinning making all the people around jealous of our love.
He pushed me away, "Mocha, stop it. It's embarrassing…"
I laughed, "Ohh~ You're embarrassed of what we're doing? Kawaii Takashi~kun." I drew his lips to kiss him.
"Mocha! STOP IT!"
"What's the matter?! Did I do something wrong?!"
He buried his left hand on his face, "I loved Kana, not you! YOU STOLE ME AWAY FROM HER! I was seduced by you that night at the classroom! Why are you like that to her? She didn't do anything to you at all and still…"
"It's still your fault! If you loved her then you should have just pushed me away when I kissed you right?! You're so naïve Takashi!" I yelled. People were already murmuring.
One whispered, "They're fighting! How daring that girl is!"
"Yeah! She stole that guy away from the girl he likes!"
"How evil that girl is!"
But I didn't care. That's just how it is…
My lips coiled with anger, "What are you going to do now? Kana left for her new school! Hah! You can't do anything about it!" I laughed audibly.
He looked at me, "I can still see her. The train's going to leave at 5:30. I can say good-by to her at least." Takashi scampered immediately to the train station.
"No! You can't see her! YOU'RE MINE ONLY! MINE!" I followed him on the way there.
Takashi's POV
I can't still be late. I need to tell her my feelings! That I love her so much! Memories appeared in my mind the day I noticed her.
{Flashback to Takashi's Past}
It was Science Class and I was really bored at that time. I was sitting beside the window when I heard laughter below me.
"Kana, that's not the way you pass the ball to the other side!" our gym teacher scolded Kana.
She lowered her head, "I'm sorry Sensei. I'll do my best at the next try…"
"No! You won't play at the next game! Mocha, you replace her!" the teacher instructed.
"Okay!" Mocha stood up confidently and noticed me looking at my window. She smiled TOO SWEETLY at me. I was so disgusted by it. Ewww…. I stared at Kana again, she was controlling her tears. I wish I could comfort her at the time of her need.
[Back to the first flashback]
I stopped to catch my breath. Where is she?
"TAKESHI! YOU CAN'T SEE HER!" I heard Mocha yelling my name.
I need to hurry. I saw her boarding the train. There were less people around though so I was fast enough to run towards her.
I felt a surge of pain at the part of my stomach and I halted to look at it. What was wrong with it? I saw a puddle of ketchup around me. What? Why was there ketchup? No.. This wasn't it. It was my own blood flowing out of my body. I turned around who stabbed me. It was Mocha. How the heck did she know how to kill?
"M..Mocha, why?" I whispered bluntly. My whole body was aching with pain.
She scowled and thrust her katana inside me again, "You're not going to see Kana again so I'll kill you." Mocha cried and realized what she had done. "AAAHH! I'm so sorry, Takeshi! I didn't mean to stab you!" She came to my side when I fell down to the ground.
I looked at the train, it was moving already… I… need to… tell her… "Mocha, please forgive Kana. If she did anything wrong to you. PLEASE… be friends…" I held her hand. "Do it for me…"
Her tears were flooding all over my face, "Takeshi-kun… I love you so much… I'm so sorry…"
I smiled, "It's okay… I love you too…" I exhaled many times. I still want to see the sunrise…
"Don't leave me Takeshi-kun… I'll bring you to the hospital."
"NO. Don't…. It's okay. I'm so tired already…" I sighed and looked at the sky. "I love you too…"
Mocha gasped, "Really? You do?"
I laughed and gazed at her, "Of course… Why shouldn't I love you? You were also a part of my life…"
She beamed a smile at me, "I love you more…"
For my last breath, I pictured Kana smiling in my mind. I didn't realize I said it aloud for Mocha to hear. "Kana, you will always be the dumbest dumb girl I've ever met. You'll always be the girl to greet me a hundred times a day. You will always be my first love. I hope you hear the whisper of my heart that I love you so much…"
Mocha's POV
Those were the last words Takeshi said. He only said 'I love you' to me. Why did he say so many unnecessary things about her? I should feel happy that he said those right?
"Because of that, I'll avenge Takeshi's death… It's all your fault Kana…"
