Hi everyone, how are you? Sorry to keep you waiting. I bring you the latest chapter of "Take on Colour" (Anime explosion)
I know that Amu is a little OOC in the whole story. That's because she threw away her spicy side. Normally she is a shy girl under that spicy fake cover of her in the anime. But if she is like that in the story, then she would be bullied by others. Sooo...
Italics are thoughts. Beware of italics. Because Amu will use them here.
It was Tuesday today, the day when the populars would start their study session and the day of the beginning of their demise. But everywhere one's eyes would go, they would see so full of life. Seiyo High School was no different. In fact this gathering place of teenagers where they come to learn and have the most adventurous time of their life was bursting with energy and life. All the students were so lively and energetic that the whole school looked like a healthy garden full of sunflowers for lack of better words.
It was only a week before their first semester and two weeks before their summer vacation would start. So it was natural that the teens were discussing how to spend their summer and what to do. Girls were discussing things like what swimsuit to wear when going to beach or pool party or which singer's concert to go. Couples were obviously planning about their dates. Single statused boys were betting on who can get a girlfriend sooner. There was excitement in the air of Seiyo High which was unusual. Well, because we all know we have some deadly populars to ruin everyone's peace.
But the populars weren't that much active to cause havoc nowadays which the other students noted. Not that they were complaining. No way. But they were curious to know why they were being civilized. Well, truth be told, the news of the populars being stuck in summer classes weren't published. Neither others knew that their respectable idols were threatened with their grades. So the less poisonous attitude of the populars was a mystery to them.
Kukai, the proud Heracles of Seiyo was walking in the hallway toward his classroom. Even the hallway was buzzing with life. Chit chatters of the teens filled the hot air of the narrow hallway. Everyone seemed happy. Some were flirting with their girlfriend or boyfriend. Some were giving courage to their friends to confess to their crush.
It irked Kukai. He was envious of them. They could live such a carefree life, a colorful life where he could not. Well, there was no point in spoiling his mind early in the morning by self pity. And with that thought he entered his class, the same class as the kitty cat. Well, since exams are coming all the club activities were put on hold. So both Heracles and the Snake were relieved from their sport clubs.
"Amu sama, you seem awfully in a good mood today," said Rikka sweat dropping. "..except for the massive scowl adorning your face."
Indeed the Radiant Queen's beautiful face was bathed with a not so cute, unladylike scowl. Currently they were in their classroom. The bell hadn't yet ringed. Prince Charming was in the same class but he seemed late which was unusual. The closest of Radiant Queen's fans seemed to be surrounding her.
"What's the matter, Amu san?" asked Yuki calmly like always.
"That man," Amu scoffed. "He did it again. He forcefully gave me a ride to school again."
The man Amu talked about was none other than her father, Tsumugu. Tsumugu again dragged his daughter to his car without her consent and dropped her to school. Though he wasn't rough this time. And after dropping the pinkete and before driving off, the Hinamori male seemed to want to tell his daughter something. But in the end he couldn't muster the words and left silently. Actually he wanted to say "Have a nice day" or "Good luck" or "Take care" or anything of that sort. But these words were unspoken. If only he knew how his daughter would feel to hear this melodic words...
Well back to the main story
"Come on, Amu sama. He was clearly trying to open up to you," commented Misaki, the one known as the loud mouth of the group.
In return Amu just pouted.
"Even your pout seems as magnificent as ever," Saya stated over dramatically, over happily.
Everyone in the group sweat dropped. "Sometimes I wonder if you are the same Saya I knew before," Amu stated. "To think that the girl that so brutally hated me back then now even worships my pout, it chills my bone to even think about the future."
"Oh Amu sama, you are such a drama queen," Saya said still in that overly happy mood.
"Who's being dramatic now?" Misaki commented with a snicker.
"Say, Saya chan, you are in an overly good mood today," Rikka stated. "What happened?"
"Did the god of seduction ask you out or something?" Misaki chuckled causing Amu to giggle.
"You could say that," Saya replied with a wink which was so unlikely of her.
"WHAT?" shouted the tree girls including their queen.
"What? What? What really happened?" Amu asked like a little kid curios to know how baby comes.
"No way will I tell you now," Saya said putting her nose in the air. "But if everything turns out okay today, you are the first person I am going to tell tomorrow." The smile Saya gave was so brilliant and vibrant. It was like she was happy from the bottom of her heart.
"No fair, making your queen wait," Amu pouted.
"Should we tell Amu sama?" the four gossiping girls heard two girls talking not so far from them. Apparently those two were Amu's closest fans as well.
"Tell me what?" Amu asked somewhat in a demanding tone. Both the girls jumped one feet high and screamed at the queen's sudden call. "So..sorry, I didn't mean to startle you," Amu said in a softer voice.
"You didn't startle them, you scared them for life," Misaki remarked. Was it Amu or was Misaki really in a playful mood today.
"Meanie," Amu said to Misaki. "Anyway, what did you two wanted to tell me?" she asked averting her gaze to the two girls who now had recovered from the scare.
Both the girls had brown hair that reached their shoulders. Their hairstyle was same as well which made them look like twins. But they weren't twins, they were best friends. One had black eyes while the other had brown irises. The brown eyed girl's name was Sayaka and the other's name was Ayano. Both of them were tenth graders.
"W..well, Ayano chan is going on a date," Sayaka said. "But since he is a popular that Ayano chan will be dating... Amu sama, we want to know if that would offend you."
"Offend me? Your date?" Amu asked with a totally clueless expression. "Now why would you get that kind of a weird idea?"
"Well, he is one of the populars. And wouldn't it rise a scandal if one of Radiant Queen's fangirls dated one of the queen's enemies?" asked Ayano.
"Enemies? Now that's too much," replied Amu. "That's not the word to describe how I feel about them. Anyway whom you date is none of my business to interfere to. I hope you good luck."
"H..hai," nodded Ayano.
"By the way, Ayano chan. Whom are you dating?" asked Rikka being curious.
"It's Souma senpai," she replied shyly.
"Heracles?" Misaki asked and got a nod from the shy girl as a return.
"But isn't he the player of Seiyo?" Yuki joined their conversation. "I heard he dumps girls right after their first date. Some even say he harshly breaks their hearts after one night stand."
Hearing this, Ayano became scared.
"I know he has a reputation for being a flirt and a player," Amu intervened. "But I don't think he would be that heartless."
"Say queen, why are you defending him?" Misaki asked with a taunting grin. "Don't tell me you have fallen..."
"Saya chan once dated senpai, right?" Rikka asked Saya cutting Misaki.
Saya who was listening to them silently just sighed. "It's all just rumors. It's true that Heracles hits on girls and flirts with them when there are..well, audiences. But if they are alone, he acts almost like a stranger."
"You mean his flirting is all just an act?" Yuki asked.
"I am not sure. But it's not him that dumps the girls. It's the other way around. Girls apparently get bored with him and leave."
"What about the one night stand?" asked Rikka.
"It's a lie as well. He never even kissed any girls on the lips in his own will," Saya stated. "It would probably be the girls that would suddenly put a kiss on him."
The bell rang and in a few minutes the teacher came. Hotori Tadase came with the teacher carrying some stacks of paper. All the students were seated and the class started. But Amu just couldn't help but thinking one thing. "So this is how Souma senpai really is."
It was already lunch break. Tadase was going in the direction of the teachers' room with the assignment papers in his hands. Today he was helping Tsuruga sensei with his works. Normally Tadase does help teachers but today he was doing more than normal. And the reason is if Yukari sensei decides to kick him out of school than other teachers will surely protest in his favor.
Once he was in the teachers' room and gave Tsuruga sensei the assignment papers, Kanae sensei gave him the checked assignment sheets in her subject and asked Tadase to take it to his class. So Tadase took the sheets and started for his classroom.
As Tadase was turning a corner in the hallway, he bumped into someone. The impact made him drop all the papers. But both Tadase and the opposite party held their grounds. Tadase bend down to retrieve the papers without looking who he bumped into.
"Watch where you are going, shrimp," said the other person.
Tadase's eyes twitched and he looked up to come face to face with none other than the Thorn Queen, Hoshina Utau. Normally he would say sorry to anyone. But the arrogant girl before him was a popular. On top of that she called him a shrimp just now. Tadase tried his best not to throw any insults her way. He kept his gaze on the floors and collected the scattered papers.
Utau's eyes twitched this time. She was hoping for a fight. All the other populars stopped causing scenes because of the stupid threat the two teachers gave them. Though this baby prince wasn't a good match. It's always too predictable in his case. Because he always loses. It would have been more enjoyable if it was Heracles or the Snake or Odette. Heck it would be fine if it was the Popsicle. But it had to be the prince. "Hey, didn't you hear me," Utau nearly shouted in the empty hallway.
"Your crunching voice is hard to miss," Tadase replied monotonously. He stood up having gathered all the assignment sheets.
"What was that?" Utau asked dangerously.
Tadase paid no heed to her. He went past her and stopped. "Your father is back. Aren't you happy?" he asked out of curiosity. When he got no reply he turned back. Utau's face, it held an expression mixed with anger and something else. What was it? Sadness? No. Utau just threw him a nasty look and went to where she meant to go.
Tadase just sighed and went to the direction of his classroom. Utau's expression, it was a mixture of anger...and longing.
It was still launch break, though nearly the end of the break. Hinamori Amu and Hatoba Yuki were in the girls' washroom. Amu was washing her face and Yuki was standing beside her.
"Amu san, I might have forgotten to tell you. But my father is back at Seiyo," Yuki said.
"What? Touka san is back," Amu asked surprised. Then her expression changed to a scowl. "Touka san said I was like a daughter to him. But he never tells me when he is leaving or coming. Maybe the definition of daughter isn't the same to him as to me."
"Now now, you can't say that," Yuki said with a small smile. "Father tried to tell you but both times you were sleeping."
"Still, he should have informed me. You know he acts like a real parent unlike my own," Amu said with a sad expression. It made Yuki sad as well. She knew that both her father and mother loved Amu like they loved her. And Amu's parents weren't the sweetest.
"Anyway Amu san, father said you must be out of one of your medicine," Yuki stated.
"My medicine? Let's see. I take a hoard of them so it's kind of difficult to say I am out of one," Amu said with a finger under her chin. "That's right. I finished one last night."
"Father sent me one to give it to you," Yuki said as she brought out a bottle of pills from her skirt pocket and gave it to Amu. "He said it isn't the same as the last one. This one's stronger than the last one and you might feel a little uneasy at first."
"Why stronger?" Amu asked. "I don't feel weaker or ill. So why do I need to have a powerful dose?"
"I don't know," Yuki said uncomfortably. Did she just hesitate? "Father thought it would be good for you."
Amu just took the cap of the bottle off and inserted one of the pills in her mouth. Then she put the cap on again. Seeing Yuki giving her a weird look she said, "What? We just had our lunch. It's okay, isn't it?"
"W..well, anyway, let's head back to the class," Yuki suggested with the warm smile she possesses.
As both girls got out of the girls' washroom, they came face to face with the student council president. He was just passing that place with a stack of paper in his hands. Probably student council works or something.
"President?" the Radiant Queen asked surprised.
"Hinamori san?" Kairi was surprised as well.
"Well, I am going ahead of you Amu san," Yuki said as she went for their classroom leaving her best friend.
"Today is the beginning of our study session," Amu said with a smile. "I am looking forward to it. Let's do our best, president."
"Didn't you say you would call me by my name?" Kairi asked with a sigh. "But you are still calling me president."
"That's because you are still at Hinamori san," Amu pouted. "Hinamori san is sooo long. Why wouldn't you call me Amu for a change?" she pouted.
Just then the bell rang signaling the end of their lunch break.
"Well, see you after school," Kairi called. "Make sure you tell your friends about your plans after graduation." And with that he left.
"What's up with him?" Amu muttered with a scowl. She already seemed to be in a bad mood. "He seemed overly concerned about my departure. And what's with him if I tell my friends about it or not? It's none of his business to begin with."
Amu also started for her own classroom. There was no need to be late for class and earn herself an extra detention. But as she was walking she came to realize that her mood was turning sour for no apparent reason.
It was the last period. It was daring to skip class when two evil teachers threatened the populars to fail their years but Yuiki Yaya was skipping the period. Right now she was in the girls' washroom. What was she doing you ask? Well, she was hitting or punching the sink out of frustration.
"Darn it," she punched the porcelain sink which only made her already red fists redder. "Darn it, why am I acting like this? I already knew this would happen," she muttered to herself. Her eyes were teary but she tried hard enough not to cry.
Yaya's parents did decide to have a trip to a distant place, mainly Hawaii with their younger son. They forgot all about her. This mad the swan princess sad. But she tried to hold her emotions. She was successful up to the previous period. She heard the news in breakfast table. But in this period they were learning literature which was followed by family love and Yaya couldn't keep her emotions under control.
The door to the washroom opened and the Ice Queen came in view. She short girl was surprised, no shocked to see the sight before her. Odette of Seiyo High was hitting the sink? Now that was new. Normally she would visualize Heracles to do that. Yaya faced the short blonde.
Rima was taking stance to make a remark about how pitiful the other girl looked. But the ginger head's expression stopped her. Odette seemed cracked. She held the same expression as Rima when Rima's parents would ignore her.
Rima's expression softened which...pissed off Yaya. "Who knew the ice cube was capable of pitting others?" Yaya spat. Rima jerked back at the venom in the ginger head's words. "But I am not the one to be pitied." And with that Odette left the washroom making sure that she bumped her shoulder with the shorter girl. Of course the impact made Rima lose her balance but she caught herself from falling.
"Whoever said I was pitting you?" Rima asked no one. "You are not worth pitting." Then she added in a whisper, "I was off guard because your expression reflected mine."
Finally, school was over. Finally, the hell of the day ended for most of the students. But for all the populars, the hell just began. In room 213, all the populars and the student council president gathered. The two demon teachers weren't present yet. The Snake was staring, well more like glaring at the Radiant Queen. And when the queen turned to him feeling like someone was watching her, he simply gave her a bone chilling smirk. Even the cheerful queen was shaken by the poisonous amusement in his eyes.
Prince Charming seemed like he was upset in taking this session even though he had perfect grades. He seemed to be silently consoling himself. Black Cat was tearing off the pages of his notebook and was trying to make origami cat though with no such luck. He only managed to make deformed swans instead of cats.
The Ice Queen had a book in front of her making others believe that she was reading when she was actually admiring her polished nails. The thorn Queen was listening to music. She was wearing ear phones. Odette was playing with her hair when the deformed swans came to her view. Then she stared throwing death glares at Black Cat fuming though the victim seemed oblivious.
Heracles was yawning and trying his best not to fall asleep. He was chewing a gum to keep him awake and was blowing bubbles. Kairi was trying his best to keep his mind in the book before him but was unsuccessful. Because he was in the presence of all the populars. Even though the classroom was unusually quiet, he still felt uneasy.
Meanwhile the Radiant Queen was playing with her hair and trying to ignore the Snake's stare that was directed at her. She didn't look as happy as some moments ago when she entered the room. What's up with her sudden mood change?
The door to the room burst open and in came Nikaidou Yuu and Sanjo Yukari. Of course the red haired demoness was in the front. "Whoever didn't make it to the room by now surely has a death wish," she declared before inspecting the scene before her. All the occupants of the room looked at her. "Ha?" she managed to say.
Yuu came from behind her after locking the door. Then he too inspected the room. "We thought all of you wouldn't show up," he said with a goofy smile. "But since all of you are here, let's get started."
There were groans and whining but eventually all of them listened. "Now we are going to split all of you in three groups," declared Nikaidou. "First, Kairi kun, Yuiki san and Hinamori san will be in one group. Then Mashiro san, Hotori san and Fujisaki san will be in another group. And lastly all the second years will be in the last group."
"Now everyone, rearrange your seats," Yukari stated.
"You are pairing the most dangerous ones together? Someone doesn't know anything about good combination," stated the Ice Queen indicating the second year group.
"It's a wonder how you got the teachers certificate," Heracles said with a whistle.
"Silence," Yukari shouted. "Now in Kairi's group, since you have the best grades Kairi, you are going to teach the other two."
"In Hotori san's group, Hotori san is in charge," Nikaidou stated with his usual goofy smile ignoring Yukari's scowl as she was interrupted.
"And in our group, you don't suppose that miss thorny will teach us, right?" Kukai asked with amusement written on his face. "Though I don't think a C holder is capable of teaching others."
"Sorry to soak your hopes, but," Yukari started.
"We two are going to teach the second years," finished Nikaidou.
Both Ikuto and Utau made a tsk sound while Kukai had his mouth open. Yukari was annoyed at Yuu for interrupting her again. While Nagihiko and Yaya snickered at Kukai for his lose of words.
"Okay, now let's get started," stated Yukari.
The three groups were seated in three corners of the room. The second year's group with the two teachers were seated near the teacher's table at the front and near the window. Tadase's group was seated at the back of the classroom near the window. And Kairi's group was seated at the row that was the closest to the door and at the middle of the row.
After teaching the second years for nearly fifty minutes Yukari decided to have ice cream and she left the room with Yuu. Kairi and Tadase were given the duty to keep the class civilized. As the two adults left, the environment in the classroom was still quite and civilized.
Ikuto, Utau and Kukai were doing some math exercises given by the goofy teacher. Though he doesn't look like it, but he is really good at teaching math. And these three found it enjoyable to solve the sums. Also, Yukari sensei would have their head if they didn't finish all the problems by the time she is back.
Prince Charming was having much difficulty in explaining history to the infamous Ice Queen. She was constantly ignoring him saying she doesn't need something as stupid as history lessons because past teaches us nothing but how to be blood thirsty. Nagi kept quite but he was reading the book in his hand quite sincerely.
Kairi wasn't having much trouble but his eyes were twitching in annoyance as it was the first time he was teaching someone. Yaya was rather slow than he liked. And Amu's mind seemed to travel through so many things than to pay attention to what he was saying.
Finally after twenty more minutes of explaining the chemical reaction to the ginger head and the bubble gum head, Kairi asked them to solve the problems at the end of the chapter. Though a little slow, Yaya started to follow his order. But the Radiant Queen was poking at her note book rather than actually doing the work.
Kairi sighed. "Is there any problem, Hinamori san?" he asked. Amu looked at him and the poking stopped immediately. Yaya heard him also but didn't bother looking up from her task.
"Oh, Kairi? No, nothing is wrong," Amu answered looking down at her notebook. Her usual enthusiasm wasn't there.
Kairi was a little surprised. This was the first time Amu called him by his first name in front of others. "If anything bothers you, you can tell me. Is there anything you don't understand?" he offered his help.
"No, I am fine," she replied a little forcefully. Then after a moment of silence she spoke up again though she didn't make eye contact. "Say, Kairi. Why is it important for others to know about my departure?"
This caught Yaya's interest though she busied herself in solving the chemistry lessons.
"What do you mean why?" Kairi asked back. "Don't they simply have the right to know?"
"Right? But they will be sad if I tell them," Amu replied. "It took me years to open up to them and vice versa. If I were to tell them, they would be sad. They won't smile for me anymore. And I worked so hard to gain those smiles." Amu was now laying her head in her arms that were in the desk. And the tone she was using was that of a depressed child. Talk about mood swings...
"But they will be sad if you don't tell them," Kairi shot back. "They will think that you are keeping secrets from them because you don't trust them, because the friendship between you is fragile. They will be even more depressed if you betray them?"
"Betray?" Amu repeated and raised her head to look at Kairi. "But I am simply just trying to keep their smile. Where's treachery in that?" she shouted and stood up earning attention of all the other occupants in the room. Everyone looked at her direction including Yaya.
"Hinamori san, calm down," Kairi said monotonously.
"How can I keep calm? You are accusing me for no reason," Amu was still at shouting.
"You are over reacting," Kairi stated. He was still sitting whereas Amu was standing.
"You are the one who's over reacting. Just who gave you the permission to pry into my life?" the enraged Radiant Queen spat.
"Excuse me?" Kairi stood up as well. "I am not prying. I am simply looking out for you."
"Really? Looking out for me?" Amu asked and she managed to throw him a taunting smile. "But I don't ever remember you being my mother. Though I can promise you that people titled as my mother are no good."
Kairi sighed. "Look Hinamori san, I don't know why you are so mad. But..."
"I am not mad," Amu interrupted him.
"Wow, this is good show," Kukai said with a whistle. He seemed to be whistling a lot today.
Kairi just shot him a short glare and turned his attention toward the pink head again. "Amu san, I am only saying that you ought to tell your friends about your leave. You only have less than three years before graduating. Like you have plans to spend the rest of your remaining time here in marry making, they might have as well," Kairi was pleading with his eyes that the girl standing before him would come to terms with him.
The fact that Kairi called her by her first name, not to mention in front of everyone went unnoticed by her. "B..but, I am simply protecting their smiles. If I tell them, they will be sad, hurt," the tone Amu was using was that of a drunken person. "No way, I can't tell them."
"Are you sure you are not on drugs?" asked Utau with a snicker but there was a tiny concern in her facial expression.
"Saya was always known as the bitch, but she was hurt in the inside," Amu mumbled though everyone heard. "Misaki was always thrown to a side because she was labeled as a loud mouth. Rikka was the crybaby under her cheerful mask. And Yuki is the shadow that gives me the sweetest of comfort. They are my sweetest treasures, my objects of happiness. Just what gives me the right to break their heart?"
Kairi closed his eyes in contemplation than reopened. "You know, Hinamori san. I would say you are being a coward." This got a shocked gasp from the female. "You are simply running away from your responsibilities," Kairi continued. "Like I said, they might have plans to spend time with you differently if they know the truth. Why are you depriving them of the opportunity?"
"Responsibilities? I am running away from responsibilities?" Amu thought but she didn't voice out her thought. Her hands curled into fists and she gripped her skirt tightly to refrain herself from shaking. "But..running away from responsibilities isn't anything new to the Hinamories. So what's the problem if I follow my family trend?"
"You are simply being inconsiderate, Hinamori san," Kairi began again. His mood turned into a sour grape by now. And he couldn't stop the words that came to his mind. "I don't even know what I saw in you to fall for you." The words left his lips like that...before he could stop himself. He was shocked..with himself. The others were shocked as well. Who knew the student council president liked girls that?
But the girl herself seemed unfazed. No, it seems the words never got to her. Her mind was clouded so she never heard the words. What was up with her? She acted like a drunk. Or maybe she was drugged?
"As I said, you are being inconsiderate," Kairi said again in a stern voice. "You are being selfish, Hinamori san. You are only taking and never giving. You are only concerned about yourself."
This sparked something in Amu's head. Rage?
"Selfish? Selfish?" the words kept spinning in her head. "I am only concerned about myself? I don't give? No. No. That's not right. That's not true." And she lost her self consciousness and the rage took over.
The door of the dreaded classroom opened and the two forgotten teachers entered.
"The ice cream was soo good," Yukari said with a content smile.
"I am telling you that you will be a football by the end of summer if you keep up with daily ice cream," Nikaidou stated. Then both stopped in their trucks sensing the tensing atmosphere in the classroom and seeing both Kairi and Amu standing.
And then...THASHHH.
The loud sound of a slap echoed in the classroom. Everyone had their mouth agape. And Yukari was fuming. How dare that Hinamori girl's hand made painful contact to her little brother's face?
Needless to say Kairi was beyond shocked. His left cheek already adorned a vibrant red hand print. And when Amu looked up to meet his gaze, he wished he never opened his mouth in the first place. For the girl's expression saddened him.
Amu was shocked as well. The moment she realized she slapped her recently made friend, she regretted. Her eyes, lips, her whole face mirrored the regret.
"Just who the hell do you think you are?" Amu screamed. Tears were leaking out of her eyes. "Just who gave you the right to judge me? You don't know anything about me, nothing. You call me selfish. You say I only take. That's absurd."
Amu looked at Kairi directly in the eyes. There was anger there in her eyes as well as longing. Longing for what he couldn't tell. "All my life I only sacrificed," Amu began. "I just had to sacrifice everything to reach up to my parent's expectation, to establish an idol for my little sister. And you call me selfish."
Amu blinked her eyes to get rid of the tears without wiping the liquid. "For the things I went through in past and the things I would go through in future," Amu said raising her voice. "I...I..I have...I have the right to be selfish." And with that Amu gathered her stuffs and ran out of the classroom shoving Nikaidou rather harshly from the exit.
" , who gave you the permission to leave?" Yukari called after her though the words didn't reach her ears.
"Leave her be, Yukari," Yuu called. "It's already the time for departure," he said looking at his wrist watch.
"B..but she just hit Kairi," the read haired teacher said.
"I am leaving. Please excuse me," Kairi said with a bow and he left room 213.
"All of you are dismissed," Nikaidou said with a clap of his hand. "You may leave. Make sure all of you are here after tomorrow's school."
All the populars left. But they couldn't help but thinking about the Radiant Queen. What made her act like this today? She was so out of character. Well, she was out of character after her sudden drop of the spicy personality. But today was different.
As Yaya was walking home, she kept remembering the bubble gum head's words.
"I just had to sacrifice everything to reach up to my parent's expectation, to establish an idol for my little sister." (Amu)
So she sacrificed her happiness to set a good example for her sibling? Yaya though as she stopped near a cafe. The cafe window reflecting her image. "She and I have a lot more in common, ha?"
Kairi and Yukari were returning home together. Yukari kept quiet and so was Kairi.
Kukai was also shaken from the candle light's outburst. "Seriously, girls and their terrible mood swings," Kukai muttered. "Looks like this summer is going to be a hell if the candle turns into a blazing volcano."
Ikuto was crouched down in the ground near a park. And there were three kittens in front of him. They were eating the cat food that Ikuto offered them. Who knew the Black Cat of Seiyo actually liked cats?
The little creatures were licking from the can and one was licking his hand. But Ikuto paid no mind to that. His only thought was why did the fire fly acted that way? She seemed to be suffering a lot. It saddened him, pained him even.
The little kittens finished their meal and Ikuto stood up to leave. He put both his hands in his pockets and headed for him home. Even if it's just a little, he felt the urge to help that fragile girl.
As Nagihiko was walking home, he clearly felt irritated. He decided to observe the Radiant Queen today but it was a complete waste of effort. The Queen wasn't even herself today. Nagi couldn't collect any information about her.
But what made him devastated was the fact that he felt sad for the poor girl. It clearly irked him to no end. Her tears, her trembling lips-they represented how much of a fragile being she was. His consciousness screamed to him that he was being a jackass to her even by thinking of wrong doing her.
Nagihiko pulled his long hair out of frustration. This girl was messing with his head. He sighed. Seriously, this very girl is going to be the death of him one day.
Utau was in her apartment building. Currently she was alone in the elevator of the building. The shiny metal formed a reflection of her. She might not admit it, but she was worried about the pinkete. After all, that girl could demand Utau's punishment for the food war incident. But she let it go. And Utau hadn't thanked her yet. Because of today's incidents, Utau was really worried if the other girl was drugged or not.
"I have the right to be selfish." (Amu)
"Surely, you are right," Utau said to no one. "If you are not selfish, you won't survive in this world. You will disappear into ashes in this blood driven reality."
Finally doneeeee. Hope all of you like it.
Wow, now even Ikuto fans are turning into Nagi fans. That's unbelievable. Now now, aren't I a magical girl to have the power to do that?
In last chappy, last part, I wrote something about Amu. I was sure my reviewers would ask me about that. But none did. They were so focused on Nagi that none mentioned about that in their review. Well, it doesn't matter either way.
In this chappy, Amu was way too much OOC. Know the reason? It involves something with pills. You know she suddenly took powerful medications without knowing the side effects. That's the reason.
Sorry if I confused any of you. I hope this chapter isn't boring. What do you think? Please, let me know.
Loooove your reviews. Please review more and more and moreeeee. Don't keep me waiting.
