HI! What is this, like...2 updates in one day!? HOLY COW! Sorry, I'm really pumped for what's about to happen. Unfortunately, I didn't get around to it in this chapter! ARG!
Anyways! Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Chapter 10
Momiji had let Sage get to her feet, obviously just as confused as all the other Sohmas as to why I defied their curse. Sage just shook her head lightly.
"Nevermind. I have no idea why I don't make you guys transform, so don't ask me. Let's just go, okay?" Sage told them her first class, thinking in her head, 'Lies. I have a pretty damn good theory why I don't make them transform.'
Mainly Momiji since Hatsuharu had issues with directions, they lead Sage to her class. Even now, the image of her dream replayed in her head constantly, making it hard for her to focus on anything other than following them vaguely. The word 'living' pounded against the sides of her brain, and by now it was giving her a headache. Sage tried to distract her mind, but whenever she did, THEN her mind just wandered to Hatsuharu. And she didn't have the slightest idea was to why her brain was doing that to her.
"Well, here is your class. I suppose since you're living with Shigure, we'll see each other again, Sage," Hatsuharu murmured, turning around and walking off.
'Or just the fact we're in the same school? No? Really?' Sage though to herself, figuring Momiji had walked off too, until she felt a tug at her sleeve.
"Sage, Sage!" Momiji said, continuing to tug at her sleeve until she looked at him.
"Hm?" Sage followed his other hand as it held out a piece of paper.
"A different Sohma wanted me to give you this letter. See you later! Maybe we'll sit together at lunch!" Momiji said happily before running off after Hatsuharu after I had taken the letter from him.
"Tch...a letter?" Sage sighed before entering her classroom. She spoke to the teacher briefly about being a new student before walking to her seat. Of course no one else was in the room. The teacher stepped out to go make some copies of something. Sage opened the letter and read it out loud to herself.
"Sage, there is a discussion we need to have about you knowing about this curse. My name is Hatori Sohma, and hopefully Momiji has remembered to give this to you upon meeting you. Maybe I should have given it to Hatsuharu instead...but that isn't the point. The point is today, after school, I need you at the main house. You are not to speak of this to Yuki or Kyo. What I'm going to talk to you about is the same thing I told Tohru, so I feel it's only fair I tell the same thing to you. And no, you don't really have a choice. Have Momiji and Hatsuharu take you there."
Sage snorted after reading the letter, "I don't have a choice? Jeez, what kind of control does he have over me? Oh well, might as well go. I see nothing wrong with it, if they try to erase my memory I'll just make them regret trying. Simple enough. Plus Tohru still has her memory, it can't be anything bad. Unless he did something and then they erased her memory of it. However I'm going to try to give people the benefit of the doubt for once..."
Sage crumpled up the piece of paper and threw it into the trashcan, sighing heavily as she rested her head on the desk. Pretty soon other kids entered the classroom. And figures Yuki, Kyo, and Tohru were in her class. Tohru was talking to two girls. One with long black hair in a braid and the other with long blonde hair and a really damn long skirt. Pretty soon Sage saw Tohru start waving her over, so reluctantly she forced herself out of her seat. She walked over to the three.
"Well hello there. Aren't you interesting, wearing the guys' uniform?" The one with blonde hair said.
Sage nodded, her arms crossed over her chest.
"This is Sage!" Tohru said happily, clasping her hand over Sage's shoulder.
"I think the male uniform suits you just fine. My name is Saki Hanajima, but you can settle with calling me Hana," The one with black hair spoke up, followed shortly by the blonde girl.
"Yeah, I'm Arisa Uotani. Call me Uo though, alright? Any friend of Tohru's is a friend of mine."
"Right...I'll keep that in mind," Sage murmured.
"Your electric signals are very interesting. Such a clash of dark emotions, you clearly have a dark cloud around your heart blocking your way to happiness," Hana said, her voice as emotionless as her eyes. The way she said that made Sage shudder.
"Right...Well, Tohru's a big enough ball of light that she can chase it away, right?" Sage said, laughing. Anything to distract them from what Hana said, anything.
"Huh? Oh yeah, I guess comparing Tohru to light is a pretty good comparison," Uo said.
Just then the teacher entered and told everyone to have a seat. Sage made her way back to her seat and sat down.
'Alright, maybe today isn't as shitty as I thought. Yet,' Sage thought.
As the teacher lectured, Sage wasn't really paying attention. She was busy drawing half-mindedly. When she realized she had drawn the stupid ying yang symbol again she stabbed her pencil into it a few times. She only stopped when she realized she was earning an odd stare from Kyo, who sat next to her. Turns out he wasn't really paying attention either, or he wouldn't be looking at Sage! Sage smiled apologetically and sighed slightly. She then looked out the window to her left and let her mind wander to the visit she was being forced into by this "Hatori" guy.
DUN DUN DUNNN...Sage is gonna see Hatori! Sage is gonna see Hatori! Oh peach what kind of lovely crap can come from THAT!?
How do you think that will go over? Tell me what you think in the reviews! Come on, I know you want to! Even if your shy, go ahead and review! I'm shy too, and I totally understand! :D Well, signing off for the night. Going to work on that Trig, maybe read my driver's guide some, and probably go to bed after that. Get some actual sleep. Pahaha, sleep? What is that?
