~Love Stories~

oOThe War BeginsOo

Tsumugu stood in his office, looking out the window, with Yoru right behind him, posture straight and arms crossed.

Yoru wore a pair of black slacks and black button-down shirt, the sleeves rolled up to the elbows, and black shoes.

"I'm afraid you must leave Katashi, Yue-san," Tsumugu said, turning to the blue-haired man. "This is regretful because I had been growing to like you. I'd believed that despite your different ideas, and your non-traditional methods, you could have become an important part of Katashi. But I was wrong."

The headmaster walked over to the music teacher until he stood only two feet away from him. "My first impression of you was correct," he said, "You are an arrogant and undisciplined man. And we do not need beings like you here. I expect you resignation on my desk first thing in the morning." And with that, he went to walk over to his desk, but stopped when he hear a low chuckle coming from Yoru.

"Is there something you find amusing, Yue-san?" Tsumugu asked warily.

"Forgive me, sir," the blue-haired man continued chuckling, "But until today, I have had quite a bit of respect for you. I believed you to be an intelligent and sharp minded man who wouldn't miss a thing. But it seems that I've been disappointed."

Though Tsumugu's physical visage didn't change, a flash of something came and went through his eyes.

"What are you trying to say, Yue-san?" the bronze-haired man asked coldly.

"If you remember, sir," the blue-haired man spoke, "when I first came here, I told you my name is Yue Yoru. However, that it not the name I signed on the contract." He smirked. "If you had bothered to check, you would find that my name, Hinamori Tsumugu-san is not Yue Yoru, but Tsukiyomi Ikuto. Tsukiyomi Ikuto."

Tsumugu's gold eyes widened in shock.

"Yes," Ikuto nodded, "I am the same Tsukiyomi Ikuto who dared to fall in love with your daughter, Amu."

Gold eyes glazed over with tears, but didn't allow them to fall.

"The same Tsukiyomi Ikuto that you daughter loved in return," the blue-haired man whispered, "the same Tsukiomi Ikuto whom you hated so much that you expelled him from Katashi without ever meeting him or hearing what he had to say. The same Tsukiyomi Ikuto who after having been thrown out from this institution, could not gain admittance to any other universities. He couldn't find a decent job, but he worked on his own. And now, the very man who promised to destroy me, has welcomed me with open arms into the prestigious institution that he'd been kicked out of."

He turned back to the older man. "And as far as my resignation goes," he said, "I cannot, sir. For just as it is said in your contract, I cannot be expelled or allowed to resign till the end of term. Signed, Hinamori Tsumugu. And I promise you, Hinamori Tsumugu, that by the time term is over, Katashi will not be the same."

Ikuto walked up close to the older man and looked him in the eye. "I have loved only one woman my entire life," Ikuto told the bronze-haired male, "and I will continue to love her forever. Your daughter gave up her life for you, believing that it would make you kinder. Make you allow love into this cold place so that everything can change. You denied me my love and that is the one truth that I will live with my entire life." Tanzanite eyes glazed over with tears as they stared into gold. "But the truth I cannot live with is that the girl I loved died in vain. Because nothing has changed."

He backed up a few paces and looked the headmaster straight in the eye. "I promise you, Hinamori Tsumugu-san, by the time I leave, I will have filled this school with so much love that it will take you ten lifetimes just to filter it out. I will fill this place with so much sunshine, that the man who fought the elements will have to forfeit. What happened to Amu and I will never happen to anyone else. What happened to us will never happen again. This is promise you."

And with that, he strode out of the office, his promise clear in the way he walked.

-On Katashi Grounds-

Ikuto took quick and forceful steps as he strode back to his quarters. He never noticed his lock and key beginning to glow.

He did, however, notice when a small hand took a hold of his own. The blue-haired man looked over to see the woman he loved. Amu.

She wore a black off-shoulder dress that went down to her ankles with the form-fitting sleeves going to the middle of her palms. Her hair was left down, her feet inside simple black flats, and her lock glowed brightly against her neck.

Amu opened her mouth and began to sing as they walked together.

Even after the lovers die
Even after beloveds perish
Their love stories live on forever
Their love lives on forever

They never noticed Hinamori Tsumugu watch Ikuto walk away with cold eyes.

The war had begun.

AN: And here at long last, Ikuto's identity has been revealed to Tsumugu! But here is also where the battle of love and fear begins.

Thanks for reading and stayed tuned for more!
