(Hatsune's P.O.V)
"So...what am I suppose to do again?" I asked nervously, because Yuri had just placed a Sharpshooter Rifle in my hands, and now, I'm terrified of what might happen next.
Everybody was watching me, and it became nerve wracking.
Yuri turned to me, pointing down at the target dummy that looked like a person. Though it was far away.
"Shoot that. If your good with a gun, then your good with me," she said, smiling, "no pressure though."
Thanks...that really helps a lot...
Though the target was yards away. I don't know how many, cause I've never watched American Football that much to know.
I shook nervously as I looked at the gun. It was a real gun. Not one of those pop guns.
And I already shot Yui, and almost killed her.
"D-Do I have to do this?" I asked, my knees knocking together as she looked angrily at me.
"Yes. Of course. The only reason we have Yui is because she's the only vocalist we could find," she said, making Yui look angrily at her.
"You take that back! I am so to useful! I can do anything! You'd be hopeless without me!" she argued, as Yuri put her hand over Yui's mouth to keep her from talking.
"Shut the hell up! I'm trying to do my job here you moron," yelled Yuri, though I felt very awkward right now standing in between them, holding a Rifle...
I sighed. "C-Can we start now?" I asked, hoping they heard me.
"Oh yeah. Start when you're ready," calmly said Yuri, removing her hand over Yui's mouth.
I gulped at stared at the dummy far away from me. Yui taught me a bit about rifles, and let me practice on her hand gun, but I never shot a bigger gun like this.
I quickly took a stance, flipped the scope on the rifle, aimed up a bit, and shot.
Though the gun back fired, and jerked me back onto the ground, hitting me in the face, though I had no idea where the bullet went.
"Look out, Ōyama!" yelled Fujimkai, pushing Ōyama out of the way, and they both landed on the ground as the bullet struck a tree right behind them.
"I am so sorry! Please forgive me, Ōyama-senpai! The gun back fired. Though I'm better with a hand gun instead if you don't mind," I said, as Yuri looked around at everybody.
"Everybody have their hand gun on them?" she asked, as Takamatsu pulled his hand gun out of his jacket pocket and handed it to Yuri.
Yuri loaded it with a few bullets, and handed it to me.
I took a look at the gun. Desert 44.
Pretty good gun, I thought.
I stood back a bit, just to take a running start, because you're not going to stay still most of the time.
I sighed heavily, and took my running start.
I focused on the target dummy, and took two shots.
I watched as the bullets landed heavily through the dummy, making Yuri run to the dummy quickly.
"One to the head. One to the stomach," said Yuri, looking pleased at my accomplishment.
"I'm surprised. You've passed," said Yuri, as everybody cheered and crowded around me, praising me, and I smiled happily.
It felt nice to be recognized like this.
"Not to bad for a newbie," said Noda, who was always stubborn, though I guess Noda accepted me.
"Thank you, Noda-senpai!" I cheered.
"Let's get you changed into our uniform," said Yuri, dragging me away from the crowd and to the school building...
When we made it to the Headquarters, I noticed that Demon was hanging on the wall anymore.
"Where'd Demon go?" I pointed out.
"He moved him to the Detainment Zone. He won't cause trouble there," she said, though I felt bad for him.
I wonder what the Detainment Zone is. It sounds like a dungeon, or a prison.
The poor guy, I thought, as Yuri pulled a uniform from of the closets.
"Here you go, and Welcome to the SSS. We welcome you whole heartily, though I won't to talk to you about something," she said, as I began changing into the uniform.
"What is it?" I asked, slipping into the uniform jacket.
"The school really has no file on you what do ever. You have no memories nor records of your past state. Who are you?" she asked me, staring at me seriously.
"I'm Hatsune, though I can't remember my surname. I don't have any memory of anything before coming here, but I was here before the SSS began. Maybe that's how I aged?" I thought to myself, remembering that only NPCs don't age.
"Before us? How could you have been here before us, and not have gotten obliterated? Either you really are an NPC or you have a rare case of memory loss. But Otonashi has memory loss as well, so you two are in the same boat," she said, as I slipped into the sky blue skirt, and made sure I everything on right before I looked at myself in the mirror.
"Does it look alright?" I asked Yuri, who scanned over my uniform, but nodded in reply.
"It's really good on you," she said, smiling.
"Thank you for letting me join, Yuri-senpai!" I said, hugging her, and looked back at myself in the mirror.
"I'm sure that you and Otonashi can talk something out. Maybe you try and remember your memories, then they'll appear," she said, as I nodded.
"Well, we should all head back to class now. Break was over an hour ago," she said, as I hurried past her and out the door.
"I am so late! I hope I don't get reprimanded for this! I've never been late for class!" I said to myself, running as fast as I could until...I ran into someone.
"I'm so sorry. Please forgive me," I said, until I saw who I ran into.
"Hinata-senpai?" I asked, looking up at him.
"Are you alright?" he asked, standing up, and held his hand out for me, helping me up.
"Yeah. Thank you," I said, following him down the hallway, wanting to get to know my teammate better. I was going to have to sooner or later.
"Hinata-senpai. Are you and Otonashi-senpai close?" I asked, since they were together often, and more than Yui and I would be.
"Close isn't the word to describe it. Otonashi and I are inseparable. And closer than everybody would be," he said, smiling at me.
Okay...now how was I suppose to respond?
"I was asking because your closer than anybody I've ever seen," I said, smiling back at him.
"Yeah. I love him dearly. I fell in love with my best friend. I care for him deeply. No one will keep me from him," he said, though I could see his face redden a bit.
"I see. I've never experienced love that deeply for someone. I'm sure that your very happy with him," I said, though he looked surprised at my response, like he thought I was cursed at him and throw him off a bridge or something.
"I don't see how your friends with Yui. Your much more calmer, and you respect people more than Yui. How did you get stuck with someone like her?" he asked me, as I tried to remember how I met Yui.
"Yui just recently came to the school and was put in my class. She was loud, and didn't like to listen very often, so she had a hard time making friends. Since I didn't have many friends either, I decided that I would make friends with Yui. And so from there, Yui and I were best friends," I said, thinking of the best times Yui and I had.
"I see. But Yui didn't change a bit," he said, as I shook my head.
"That's what makes Yui "Yui". Without her personality, she wouldn't be the same," I said, smiling, and I saw Otonashi run to us, smiling.
"That uniform looks really good on you," he said, giving me a reassuring smile.
Yes! I didn't want to look ugly in it.
"Thank you very much. I thought so to," I said, though I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket.
Someone was calling me.
Yui.
"Please excuse me," I said, stepping to the side, to answer the call.
"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?" I heard Yui scream at me through the phone, that even Otonashi and Hinata heard it.
"Please calm down. I'm with Otonashi-senpai and Hinata-senpai," I said calmly, though it didn't help with the situation.
"WHY? THEY'RE IDIOTS! And besides...your with TWO GUYS!" she yelled, but I heard the teacher's voice in the background telling her to shut up.
"They're alright, Yui. Please forgive me. I'll buy you dinner if you want," I pleaded, knowing that I had enough money to pay for Yui's dinner.
I heard nothing for awhile. "Fine! But if you ditch class without me again, I'll kick your butt!"
"I love you too, Yui," I said, smiling.
"Whatever," she said, and the phone disconnected.
"Everything alright?" I heard Hinata ask me.
"Yeah. She's just upset that I ditched class without her. Though I'll have to buy her dinner," I said, as they both laughed.
They really did seem happy with each other. I can even feel the room brighten up just from their smiles.
I wish I could find someone like that...
Though...who?
"So, Hatsune, what do you want to do?" asked Hinata, though I had no idea what the heck to do.
"I have no idea. Though I barely know the school," I said, and then my stomach growled loudly, making them both laugh at it, and I turned away shyly.
"How about we get something to eat?" he said, turning around to head to the cafeteria.
"But it's class time. We aren't allowed to eat during this time," I said, though they looked at me oddly.
"Not like your allowed to ditch class either, but we're doing it anyway. I'm sure Ōyama and Fujimaki are around here somewhere. It's a Friday, so they're out practicing somewhere with their guns. Those bastards," he said, while we walked slowly to the cafeteria.
"Are they close too? Ōyama-senpai and Fujimaki-senpai?" I asked, because that would make feel sad, since everybody was finding love, but me.
"Might as well be. They're roommates, and they're always seen together. I wouldn't be surprised if Fujimaki confessed. Though I'm sure Ōyama would be so shocked that he wouldn't know what to say," Hinata said, as Otonashi nodded in agreement with Hinata's statement.
"I see. Everybody's so close with each other. I wish I could find somebody like that," I sighed, as we made it to the cafeteria which was completely empty.
"It's so empty. I've never seen it this empty before," I said, staring at the two floors of emptiness.
"It is, though, I'm sure Angel's patrolling around here somewhere. Since more people ditch, they made her patrol around school looking for people ditching to give disciplinary action to," he said, which made we think poorly of this now.
"What do you want?" asked Otonashi, though I never did have a favorite.
"Beef Udon sounds right now," I said, smiling, though who was around to cook it?
"I'll take some Rice Balls," said Otonashi, though Hinata stopped and looked at us.
"I feel like we're a family. I mean I'd portray the dad, Otonashi your mother, and Hatsune is the child," he said, smirking at the idea.
"What makes you think that?" asked Otonashi calmly.
"Hatsune looks similar to you, so it makes us look like a family. Though I wouldn't mind having Hatsune as a child," he said, as I looked oddly at him.
"I guess that would be genetically true. Most children usually take their hair color and eye color, and type of hair from their mothers. The face and body structure is mostly taken from the dad, but I might be wrong," I said, walking past Hinata, and into the kitchen.
"I might as well help. I make some mean Rice Balls," I said, searching through the kitchen for the ingredients.
About a half hour later, I was finished with the Rice Balls, and was pretty satisfied with myself.
I pretty much made a bento* for Otonashi, but I'm sure he'll enjoy it anyway.
"Okay! Okay! I'm done!" I yelled, and Hinata gave me a smile as I made my way out the kitchen door.
"It smells wonderful. Thank you for the food," he said, as I handed him the bento.
He smiled excitedly, and happily, as he dug into the lunch box.
Suddenly this pulse ran through my body.
My head was pounding suddenly, and I felt like I couldn't breathe, and the room became cold.
"Hatsune! Are you alright?" Otonashi said, as I fell to my knees onto the ground.
Images passed through my mind. Christmas trees. A hospital. Doctors. Flowers. Books.
"I don't...know what it means?" I said, as more images passed through my mind.
"What's happening, Hatsune?" Otonashi asked me, rushing to my side, and I heard Hinata coming out from the kitchen.
And then Otonashi appeared in my head.
"Otonashi-senpai," I said, letting the tears run down my face.
"What is it?" he asked.
I reached out and hugged him.
"I love you," I said, as more memories ran through my mind quickly, and I could remember everything now...
**bento- is a Japanese lunchbox usually containing rice, fish, and meat that is eaten at schools/
