Pisces: So…How are ya'll doin'?
Rin: They want to rip you to shreds, girly. Hell, you haven't updated since last year!
Pisces: I'M SORRY! I've been so busy lately and I've got great news!
Rin: The fact that you're finally updating?
Pisces: BETTER!
Rin: THEN SPILL IT, GIRLY!
Pisces: I'm in a band!
Rin: … *facepalm*
Pisces: Seriously! A real band! A ROCK band!
Rin: Oh~ Right! You told me about that a few days ago. You're the bassist and a singer.
Pisces: The only bassist in the school and a singer of five…not to toot my own horn or anything.
Rin: Eh. NOW TYPE OR DIE, GIRLY!
Pisces: One, I AM NOT A "GIRLY"! Two, I don't own anything here but my OCs and their beys.
Rin: Now let's get this chapter started! Oh, yeah…By the way, Pisces said there were gonna be new people coming soon, but that ain't happening 'til later in the story because of…special reasons…So yeah…
A little Authoress' Note before I start: I had an entire chapter typed up…then, as I was about to save it again, MICROSOFT WORD SUDDENLY FAILS TO RECOGNIZE THE BLOODY LANGUAGE THAT I'M TYPING IN AND DELETES EVERYTHING! GODDAMMIT! IT EVEN FAILED TO REBOOT and…for some reason, it wasn't in my save files, either…so now, I'm stuck with this stupid patch-up work…Great going, Microsoft…
Sturdy winds tore at our clothing and hair; lightning struck and thunder boomed in the distance.
But it had no effect on us…well, except for the scaredy cats Madoka and Kenta, who kept screaming every time lighting flashed.
Cerulean orbs burned into amber as their owner…my EX best friend continued to glare at who would later be known as a hero…our hero.
"Skye." She turned to me. I jerked my thumb towards the bleachers; as usual, she began to protest. I cut her off with a slight hand motion. "This is their battle, not ours and as much as I hate to admit it, we cannot interfere." I sent a glare over my shoulder at the green-haired boy before walking at a leisurely pace towards the stands. "The only thing was can do now is sit and watch destiny run its course." She made a face, but followed.
Suddenly, blinding lights cut into the still darkness and I hissed involuntarily to the pain, raising a hand in a vain attempt to shield myself from the dazzling rays.
But, as you all know…any vain attempt is automatically know as this: a FAIL!
I growled at this logic and decided to just to ignore the fact that I was going to go blind someday just by being in the bright artificial lights.
The sound of two men's…oh, I'm sorry; BOYS' voices woke me from my little reverie.
"Tategami, Kyoya," Ginga said, his voice unwavering.
"Hagane, Ginga," Kyoya growled in reply, "We meet again, but this time, I'll make sure that I'll win! I'll destroy you! Make you beg for mercy!" He then burst into maniacal laughter.
"Uh…is he…okay?" Skye asked me.
"No…no he is not…" I replied, staring at the crazy nutcase who stood before us, now laughing his ass off for no special reason…at all.
"That's not what beyblading is all about!" Ginga retorted.
"Oh yeah? Then why don't you show what is really is about?" Kyoya taunted.
"Gladly!" Ginga snapped, "Pegasus and I will show you what it's about and you will learn, whether you like it or not!"
Was he learning from me or what?
Kyoya chuckled again, "Oh, is that so? We'll see about that." And with that, he practically shoved Leone into his launcher…The poor bey…That must've hurt…a lot.
There was silence as no one spoke; we barely breathed. Kyoya and Ginga, however…We could hear them take in as much oxygen to calm themselves.
Lightning struck near us, lighting up the stadium even more; thunder followed with a deafening BOOM that shook us to the core.
'Intense levels…rising…' I heard someone think…which, as I said sometime before, was FREAKIN' CREEPY.
"Three," Ginga started, his voice tentative…just a bit.
"Two," Kyoya snarled.
"One." They simultaneously inhaled a large gulp of oxygen before shouting. "LET IT RIP!"
The skin at the back of my neck prickled. Was someone watching us? Wait…no…It couldn't be. How could I miss them in this freaking bright stadium?
My thoughts were cut short by the sharp pings and clangs of metal against metal.
"PEGASUS!" "LEONE!" Their cries stood out in the night like words on a blank sheet of paper.
"They're still working each other out," I mused, "It's their second battle, but they've changed. This is no longer a friendly rival battle (though the first wasn't actually considered "friendly", but still); this is a battle of revelation. They haven't even started battling yet."
Ginga's friends took this moment to cheer for him. Skye and I said nothing…mostly because we had no idea what to say.
"How could you do what you did to poor Benkei?" Ginga asked, "Wasn't he your friend?"
"Benkei? My friend?" Kyoya smirked, "That's pathetic! I have no friends!"
"Offence taken! What do I look like to you? A nothing? Well, here's a reality check, mister: NOTHINGS DON'T EXSIST!" I shouted. Realizing that I just dissed myself, I continued. "I AM NOT A NOTHING! I EXSIST ON THIS GODDAMNED PLANET! CAN YOU CRUNCH ENOUGH BLOODY FACTS TOGETHER TO REALIZE THAT, OR ARE YOU TOO FRIKIN' STUPID TO EVEN DO SUCH A SIMPLE TASK!"
Ginga growled under his breath (towards Kyoya, not me). Kyoya seemed to ignore me.
"He isn't even worth wasting my breath to talk about." Kyoya then burst into fanatical laughter again.
"WHY YOU LITTLE-" Ginga and I shouted in chorus.
"In this world, it's the survival of the fittest. Only the strongest survive." His eyes suddenly began to burn with a green fire-like aura. "The only place for the weak in this world is crushed in the palm of my hand." His voice took a mad (crazy mad, not angry mad) turn. "I shall become the strongest! I'll defeat all of the weak to stand at the top of THE WORLD!"
"DAMN IT, MAN!" Skye and I shouted, "YOU'VE GONE PAST THE CRAZY LIMITS!"
Pegasus and Leone clashed again.
"In this world, there is only room for on king of the beasts," Kyoya continued as if he hadn't heard us, "and that's me: KYOYA!" And…again with the laughing.
Ginga glared and snarled, "Benkei was right about you." Kyoya stopped mid-laugh. Ginga just pointed at him in a dramatic pose. "You are so twisted!"
"What?" Kyoya hissed.
"That's what I thought," I muttered with an anime sweatdrop, "Geez, if you were trying insult him, you should've used something waaaay stronger. Twisted is like describing cheese puffs; CHEESE PUFFS ARE NOT EVIL!...Kinda…I had a bad experience…"
"What happens if you were the only one left on the planet?" Ginga continued, "It sounds pretty idiotic to me, just crushing your opponent. That's not beyblading, that's just plain cruel!"
"YOU TELL HIM, DUDE!" Skye shouted.
"It's to defeat or be defeated," Kyoya replied, "A bey battle is the same thing."
"NO!" Ginga exclaimed, "A bey battle is using your bey spirit against your opponent's! That's what beyblading is! Not just massacring beyblades for no special reason other than to win!"
"Oh really? How's this for spirit then," Kyoya sneered, "I'm going to crush you like a bug! Crush you so that you can never battle again! Ginga, it's time to finish you and bring an end to your pointless-"
"ENOUGH!" Ginga cried, "Kyoya-"
"Remember my name in your nightmares!" Kyoya interrupted, laughing crazily again, "You are my prey and I will hunt you down until I bring your defeat!"
Leone became cloaked in winds and it rammed itself against Pegasus. Pegasus wasn't out for the count, but Leone wasn't finished. Over and over, it bounced Pegasus up and down, toying with it, like a cat and a mouse.
Skye just so happened to catch a glimpse from Madoka's laptop screen, "HOLY SHIZ KABABS! LEONE'S FRIKIN' STRONG!"
"C'mon, Leone, DESTROY THEM!" Kyoya laughed again.
"DAMN IT, MAN!" I shouted, "STOP WITH THE FRIKIN' LAUGHING! IT'S NOT COOL, IT AIN'T GONNA EARN YOU ANY BLOODY GIRLFRIENDS, AND IT'S DOWNRIGHT CREEPY! JUST LISTEN TO WHAT GINGA HAS TO FRIKIN' SAY!"
I then turned to Ginga and began screaming at him, "You can't lose to him, not to this Kyoya! He would never turn this way! Not on his own! DO SOMETHING YOU IMBECILE!"
Ginga seemed to take heed to my words of no-so-wise wisdom, "Go, Pegasus!" It rushed towards Leone.
"Sorry, man, but you ain't going anywhere," Kyoya countered (with bad grammar). The winds around Leone picked up, forming a familiar wall of wind: the Lion Gale Force Wall.
Just seeing it made Ginga's friends confident in the outcome of the battle; Skye and I knew that something was off about this.
Ginga ordered Pegasus to fly upwards. He was probably going to use the same technique that he used to defeat Kyoya the first time.
Something bad hit me…and no, it was not a rock…or anything that inflicts physical pain…It was a thought…a dangerous thought that could change everything.
"Ginga, NO!" I exclaimed, but it (as usual) was too late.
The bey rose into the air and dove downwards towards the centre of the tornado in the form of a glowing Pegasus.
"NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!" I yelled. Why wouldn't he listen to me? UGH! No one does anymore!
"Got'cha!" Ginga cried, "Pegasus Starblast Attack!"
Kyoya merely smirked, "Bad move, Hagane." Ginga gulped; Kyoya continued. "Do you think that I haven't learned from the last time we battled? A night in Wolf Canyon helped me find powers I never knew existed!" A green fiery aura flared up around him.
I gasped in mock shock, "Stealing my way of calling people? Yeesh! I don't own anything I do anymore!" They ignored me. "IGNORE ME NOW, WILL YA?" Still, they continued to ignore me. "DINGOS!"
They simultaneously shot me WTF faces and turned back to the battle.
"Ginga! Watch out! That's not the Lion Gale Force Wall!" Kenta cried.
"Gee, what was your first clue!" Skye shouted back at him.
"Witness my new ultimate move: Lion Wild Wind Fang Dance!" Kyoya snarled.
We, at the sidelines, watched in both wonder and horror.
'So this is what he was gonna use against us,' I thought grimly, 'No doubt about it; even I'm not sure that we could've overtaken that monstrosity. Doji has certainly outdone himself with the effort put into this creation. I don't think even Hinata was pushed this far. Plus, he's too stupid to leave her in a canyon to fend for herself. Not to mention the fact that she's spoiled. I wonder if she's suffering from the lack of Doji's spotlight…and what if he loses; Kyoya's gonna get punished…Would she enjoy that?'
Meanwhile, Pegasus was bounced around in the tornados. Forget the cat-and-mouse simile…This was now a Sonic the Hedgehog between two creatively placed springs!
Ginga called out his partner's name in fear; Kyoya began laughing in his crazy way again, "HAHAHAHAHAHA! Can you handle it, Ginga! Can you handle the storm!"
"This changes everything," Ginga growled under his breath, "I can't attack the centre of the tornado!"
The wind grew stronger and we all threw our arms over our faces to cover them from flying debris and the wind itself. Ginga and his friends cried out.
Leone's tornado came 'round. Ginga ordered Pegasus to dodge, but it was useless. There was no escape from the storm.
Leone roared; Ginga called out to his partner again. Glowing feathers flew into the air and fluttered to the ground.
Lightning continued to strike and thunder continued to boom. It was like both the weather and the battle refused to yield.
Kyoya's laugh was unrelenting, "THIS IS THE END FOR YOU!"
Ginga seemed to be back into a corner…and a very small corner, at that, "The wind is too strong! I need to do something, fast! Pegasus, ATTACK!"
"Well, that ain't the best way to get out of a corner," I mused, "but it's something…I guess…"
Pegasus rushed towards Leone again, but it was reflected. It was nearly thrown out of the dish if it weren't for that little wall part that sticks out.
"There's no point in struggling; just give up already!" Kyoya cackled.
"No!" Ginga exclaimed, "We can't lose! C'mon, Pegasus!"
Pegasus tried to attack again, but it bounced right off of the tornado again.
"I swear," Skye murmured, "You could see that tornado from miles away."
The corner of my lips curved upward, "It's pretty hard to miss…even if you were blind. I mean…I'm pretty sure that wind has turned almost every umbrella inside-out by now…and if it was strong enough, little kids could be flying around as well…" We simultaneously glanced at each other.
"Well, hope Kenta's strapped down," Skye said, turning back to the battle with a grin.
While we were talking, Pegasus continued to attack, but Leone's tornado kept it back. Kyoya kept shouting on and on about "crushing him" and "no mercy" and "everything being over" and "winning".
I grew tired of his ranting, "Dude, SHUT THE FREAKING HELL UP! NO SANE PERSON IS LISTENING TO YOUR BLOODY RANTING BECAUSE NO ONE BLOODY CARES, NOR WOULD THEY EVER FRIKIN' CARE! I'M GETTING TIRED OF YOUR DAMN RANTING, SO SHUT YOUR FUCKING YAP AND BRING HIM BACK! I WANT MY FRIEND BACK! I KNOW HE'S IN THERE! KYOYA, IF YOU'RE IN THERE, PUNCH THE DUDE WHO'S RANTING IN THE FACE RIGHT NOW!"
(I hoped Kenta was both strapped down and not listening when I screamed that…)
For some reason, light blue feathers were flying into the air…and I'm pretty sure that Ginga and I were the only ones who saw. He froze and I heard his thoughts loud and clear.
'Oh, no…Pegasus' feathers are…falling! Am I…actually unable to defeat…Kyoya?'
"Keep thinkin' like that, buddy," I muttered, "and you'll lose for sure."
"What's the matter, Ginga?" Kyoya taunted, "I thought you were gonna teach me what a bey battle is about?" He laughed. "Maybe I'll teach you something instead."
His friends cried out and cringed away from the battle.
"Hey," a familiar voice exclaimed, "No flinching! Keep it together! Don't go pulling your heads in like turtles; when your friend's career is on the line, you've got to cheer for him!"
We turned around to face the voice.
What the…Benkei? How the hell are you out of bed? You should have been out longer than me!
We heard cheers coming from the other side of the stadium; we turned again.
…How did those…When did they…What are they…Where did they…
Okay, who put those people there and how did they get there without us noticing? I mean, seriously…people cannot just appear and reappear wherever they want to; that's crazy and creepy! Really….creepy…
A blue-haired girl (Hikaru), the Facehunters, and some pale dude in a cape (Tetsuya) were there, too. The Facehunters I knew. I think the blue-haired one was the one that Kenta beat and the pale one was the really creepy crabby guy…and from the speech patterns with the word "crab", I knew that I was right.
ANYWAY! Everyone was cheering. Even MAdoka…and she was terrible at cheering.
I wasn't gonna pull out one of my flips or cartwheels for this only because I didn't want to and that would have been quite awkward…Forget quite…Really awkward…
Ginga smiled, "Of course, Ginga, you idiot, you forgot about the most important thing…" He trailed off from his dream-like muses, glancing around proudly.
'I'm not battling alone.'
A sound broke through the intensity of the noise: a sad howl.
Both Ginga and I turned to stare at the origin of the cry.
"Huh, who needs people cheering?" Kyoya straightened and spoke with a voice so full of certainty, almost no one detected the loneliness and envy in his voice, "The only one you can count on is yourself!"
Something hit me…It was the answer that Ginga's freakishly slow brain had figured out. "Someone's crying." The crowd and Kyoya hushed, confused.
Ginga continued, staring at Leone with a distant look in his eyes, "Leone…Are you…Are you the one crying?"
I focused on the bey and felt an overwhelming wave of despair and solitude. The poor bey…It must've been through so much to be shoved away by its partner…
Just like me.
A crystalline tear fell from my eye and tumbled into the air.
"Even you, Leone," I whispered along with Ginga, "are saddened by this new Kyoya."
"What are you babbling about?" Kyoya demanded.
Ginga gave a solemn smile, "I understand now. I promise; I'll win this battle."
It doesn't matter what you do," Kyoya yelled, now getting a bit hysterical, "Cheering and friends ain't gonna save you! I'll blow your entire existence away! Are you ready…" he gave a savage grin. "…for my new special move? I made it just for you."
'What?' I growled inwardly, 'All this yammering and he still hasn't pulled out his ultimate secret move yet? His other one was powerful enough and like I mentioned before, I don't think that neither Skye nor I had the power to stop it…This was going to be even tougher than I'd thought...And dude…Don't use that line…It makes you sound gay…'
Kyoya yelled into the sky, "Roar, LEONE!" His eyes burned with that green fiery aura. "Special Move: King Lion Tearing Blast!"
Three tornados appeared; the children in the crowd (and Benkei) cried out.
"Take that; ya ain't so tough now, are you, Ginga!" Kyoya shouted.
Ginga stood there while Pegasus was tossed around again like Sonic and Kyoya laughed at its pain.
"Dance, Pegasus, dance until you're crushed; crushed into dust!" he exclaimed.
The crowd begain to chant, "Pegasus! Pegasus! Pegasus!"
"That's enough!" Kyoya yelled, "You're just wasting your time here! Shouting is pointless."
Yeah, right. Says the shout-y one.
"No!" Ginga agreed, "It's not pointless!" Kyoya took a moment to collect himself again.
"Destroying your opponent isn't a bey battle," Ginga continued, "I know that now; I tried to face you using only my strength. I only thought about beating you. But I was wrong and everyone's cheering reminded me of that, Kyoya!"
"What are you trying to say," Kyoya retorted.
"Beyblade isn't something you get stronger at alone," Ginga shot back, "When you're in a battle, take everything you have in yourself and everything your opponent throws against you and use that to strengthen the connection you have between yourself and your bey. Then, you begin to grow stronger. As long as I can hear my friends supporting me, I can't lose? How can I?"
"Bullshit!" Kyoya yelled as if to deny Ginga's words of actually-wise wisdom, "That's just bullshit! You're wrong! I'll prove it! I'll show you how to lose!"
(Again…I hope Kenta was covering his ears…We are a bunch of curse-y children…)
This time, Ginga was the one ignoring, "I'll take it all from you: your strength, you anger, your desperation…and…I'll also take…Leone's sadness as well."
"Leone's sadness?" almost everyone echoed. I glanced skyward; damn those people were slow.
"Hey," everyone turned to face me, "Look up." They did.
Pegasus was jumping around, regaining its speed and balance. It was like it was using the tornados' power to fuel for its own.
Huh, looks like Sonic has managed to gain control of his springs.
"Wha-What are you doing?" Kyoya was flabbergasted (A/N See, Kyle? That's how you use and spell the word "flabbergasted"!).
Ginga took the time to explain, "I took in all of the energy you had; it helped me get stronger. I can even recover all of the feathers Pegasus lost."
"That's bullshit!" Kyoya cried, using the same denial method as before, "You don't understand me! Quit trying to stall and just fucking hit me already!" He roared. Thankfully, I noticed Benkei's huge hands atop of Kenta's ears.
The tornados merged and the wind grew even stronger. Pegasus spiraled upwards into the clouds. Soon, the tornado was sucked into the clouds as well.
98% of the kids there screamed, "PEGASUS!" The other 1% screamed bloody murder and cussed like sailors at Kyoya (I was glad to be that 1%). Skye was the silent 1%.
There goes the control of Sonic…
Kyoya doubled over…not because I hit him, but because he was laughing, "Serves you right. You can talk all you want, but that ain't gonna help you now; it's all over. It was a good fight, but the joke's over, right, Ginga?"
"Wrong, Kyoya," Ginga replied, not missing a beat, "It's not over yet; Pegasus is still spinning, pal."
"Don't be stupid. How could you possibly know that?"
"Because I can hear Pegasus CALL TO ME!" He struck a heroic pose…y'know…the one where he points to the sky dramatically and waits for the next thing to happen.
A Pegasus broke through the dark clouds, radiating pale blue light.
"Stars connect to other stars and a constellation is formed," he continued," Beys can connect to other beys and bonds are formed. A bey battle isn't about destroying your opponent; it's about creating friendship through those battles and fighting together!"
"I don't need friendship," Kyoya raved, "I've fought and survived on my own! When I was alone in that damn valley, I sharpened my fangs to survive! Now, I will sharpen my claws; I will destroy you!"
A burst of green lightning burst from Leone and it started another tornado.
"You weren't alone," Ginga and I objected simultaneously.
"I beg to differ," Kyoya snarled, "There was nobody there but me!"
(Conturbatio plays.)
"You are never alone! Remember the Blader's Spirit that you took with you, but forgot back in the wilderness! Pegasus!"
It dove downwards.
The crowd gasped in awe.
"This is the bond that we share, Pegasus and I."
It flew into the tornado.
"Pegasus, Meteor Shower Attack!"
A ray of light followed Pegasus and it blew apart the tornado from the inside.
"No! The Kind Lion Tearing Blast was-" Kyoya exclaimed.
Pegasus drove into Leone before bouncing it into the air.
"Leone!" Kyoya cried. Memories flashed before his eyes as Leone flew before him. "Leone…That's right…You've always been there for me…Always at my side…"
We stared at Leone; then at Pegasus, which weakly twirled around the stadium like a drunk man.
"It's over," Skye and I mused just as Kenta exclaimed, "IT'S OVER! GINGA WON!" The crowd broke into a happy, screaming fit.
It, however, was not a victory full of fun and happiness…for the rest of us. I still felt lingering sadness and pity…but…I felt hope…It was faint…but it was there…
(Conturbatio ends and fades into Decretum)
"I…lost…but…I was…never alone." Kyoya brought Leone up to his lips. I saw him mouth. "I'm sorry, Leone."
He looked up at everyone who was clapping and cheering for both of them. Skye and I jumped over the rails and ran to meet him.
Skye actually tackled him, "Never say that you were alone! You have friends with you wherever you go! Like Rin! She was so worried about you! How dare you insult her! She was trying to help you!"
He stumbled back a step, "You're right…uh…"
She met his stare with a silly grin, "Just call me Skye."
"Alright, then…Skye." I heard a smile in his voice.
"Well," his cerulean orbs met my violet ones, "I see that you're back. Did you punch him in the face as I asked?"
He gave a weak smile, "Hello to you, too."
I responded with a half-smile, "I'll take that as a no, but since you're back, I can't complain."
(Decretum cuts off.)
The sounds of helicopter blades fill the air.
"That chopper!" Kyoya exclaimed.
"No shi…z!" I cried, trying to break my habit since 50x kids were in the stadium.
The vehicle landed and the silence was replaced by clapping.
"Bravo," the owner of the clapping hands announced, "That was excellent dinner theater. I must thank you two for an enticingly evening."
So he was the one watching…So even adults in suits stalk people. Shocker.
Ginga froze up again.
"A toast," the suited man said, holding up a glass full of orange juice, "to your victory, Ginga Hagane."
His eyes swept over to me, "Nice to know that you're still alive, Ms. Kisetsu."
I clenched my fists. Through my peripheral vision, I saw every single kid in a 5 mile radius cover their ears. Halfway through my rant, Benkei did too.
"Go shove it up your ass, bastard. I know you've been after me. You got my bloody friend and transformed him into a frikin' monster to attack us. You used Ginga as a damn excuse. My parents didn't raise me to be a crappy leader or a goddamn murderer or a fuckin' coward. I see all of those qualities in you. Oh, by the way, how is Hinata? I hope she didn't end up like you. That would be awful."
"You have a way with words, Rin. I'm surprised that no one has called you a "lady" yet."
"I hope that was sarcasm. I'm not a lady…never have; never will. Plus, I never said I was."
"…I suppose you wouldn't like to-"
"Two words: Fuck. No."
He sighed, "Oh well. It was worth a try."
Ginga roused himself out of his own reverie, "I know you! You're Doji!"
"NO FUCKING SHIT, SHIRLOCK!" I snapped.
Pisces: Okay, that just took up 10 pages of typing…and 3 months to do…More accurately 1 and a half months…I lost my USB for the rest of the time.
Rin: Tell them about the other story.
Pisces: Right…That story is a dead end…I can't write on a daily basis and it's getting harder for me to track the dates since they and other dates are smashing me in the face. I've got a badminton tourney (I'm on the team again as Singles…again) on Thursday and Math test tomorrow and the Band and Choir concert and the Exams and the Book Report Project (not just a book report, but with the wholesome goodness of project!) and the…
Rin: SHUT UP AND GET TO THE POINT!
Me: Which do you want me to do? Shut up, or get to the point?
Rin: Get. To. The. Point.
Me: Right…So, I'm keeping it up, but I'm discontinuing it. However, I'm PLANNING a special saga which will bring people back to life…or kill them…whichever comes first.
Rin: …Anything else?
Pisces: …It's 3:55 am here?
Rin: Anything else?
Pisces: Yes. VOTE on my POLL (I have many polls) and WATCH the KONY 2012 video. I watched it 4 times. Now you watch it once. I dare you. Oh, and the song names that I put in here (Conturbatio and Decretum) were from the anime 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica', which I don't know…sadly…
Rin: Anything else?
Pisces: Uh…To the authors and authoresses out there...update and keep breathing…To the regular readers our there...keep reading...and don't forget to breathe...It's not very pleasant when you forget to breathe...
Rin: *sigh* Next chapter will be short, but it should be up sometime this month.
Pisces: Until then, this is Pisces and Rin Kisetsu, signing off. WISH ME LUCK!
