A Friend from the Past; Protecting Mary's Treasure

Disclaimer: I own Mary, Kuno/Yukito, Kaolla, Kisame, Occa, the Rainbow dudes, Crazy Timberlake, Mary's attacks, Kuno's/Yukito's ÄRM, Kaolla's ÄRMs, and the Guardian plot. Megumi is from Konjiki No Gash Bell, Naru is from Love Hina, and Suzaku is from Fushigi Yugi. Other anime characters or Priests are mentioned in the story as well.

Me: Too many things happen to me already…

Yohko: Like…

Me: My sister's guinea pig Rodney died September 17, 2007...

Kitsune: The poor animal. Hope that won't happen to me in Perfect World.

Me: RODNEY!

Kosuke: Where's Aussa?

Me:…Please don't mention her. She moved to Hawaii and now I have no way of contacting her, so I thought I should stop using her user name for this. She's still going to be in my Touch My Heart story though.

Kitsune: That's why I'm taking over na no da.

Me: The good news is…I PASSED THE WASL!

Guardians, Yohko and Kitsune cheer.

Me: I got a score of 406 on the reading (barely passed it), 11 out of 12 on the writing (Fan fiction. Net pays off after all), and 421 on the math (which shocked me since math is my worst subject despite my family telling me that I'm really good at it.) THAT NINTENDO WII IS MINE!

Yohko: Momo has become Cartman…

Kitsune: No kidding.

Me: I plan to change Alviss' Sukka form later since I finally know which animal is better for him than the cat.

Kitsune: A fox?

Me: No. That's you. Anyway, if you can guess what animal I am planning before chapter 31 then I give you pie. Another thing is that I plan for a shocking story in chapter 35.

Yohko: I wonder what it could be.

Me: Enjoy the long awaited chapter (that I should have posted 2 weeks ago), nya! BTW The song that you should listen to when reading this chapter is How to Save a Life from the Fray.

Chapter 28: A Friend From the Past; Protecting Mary's Treasure


Suzaku's POV

I hate this. It was the fourth day of the final match and it was Alan vs. Halloween. It was going to be a dead even match, but what I was upset about was the motto that Alviss and Mary came up with overnight.

"A for awesome Alan!" Mary started.

"L for losing against Chaton in the semi-finals!" Alviss said sarcastically.

"A for Alan aiming for victory!"

"N for…nice…SHOES!"

Silence. That was totally random right there which was the reason why I was so mad.

Alan turned to face Alviss, "Alviss, WHAT DOES YOUR CHEER HAVE TO DO WITH ME?!"

"I don't know! Mary wrote this down!" Alviss whined in the usual un-Alviss way ever since Mary came back.

"Blaming me again I see…" Mary mumbled as she was going to go into her emo form again. That was when Pozun appeared. Kaolla wasn't their because she was on the top of the castle watching the match. Alviss couldn't hear what they were yelling about up there, but I did somehow.

"ALAN IS GOING TO WIN NO MATTER WHAT!" Chaton yelled.

"YOU'RE A BAKA SIS! DON'T CHEER FOR THE ENEMY!" Kaolla shouted at her older sister. She was reading Vampire Knight that probably came in.

"You two be quiet and cheer for Halloween-sama," Loco told them.

"OKAY!"

"NO WAY LOCO! ALAN IS GOING TO WIN BECAUSE HE'S HOT!"

"…-sweatdrop- I think this love thing is going a little too far…"

"Final battle, fourth match stand ready! MAR-----Alan! Chess Piece-----Halloween! BEGIN!" Pozun declared.

As soon as he did though Halloween used his Nature ÄRM Flame Hand and fired them at Alan. Alan easily punched the flame away, but when he did, he caused a huge explosion. Pozun was barely able to move out of the way of the attack. After the attack, he scrambled toward Megumi and told her that she was probably the best shield out their to her disappointment.

"Looks like you're still got your skills Alan!" Halloween commented.

"Using the same attack six years ago? Are you mocking me?"

Halloween them summoned a huge fire ball, "Perhaps you'd prefer this. Nature ÄRM Antares!"

He hurled the fireball at Alan. When Alan stepped out of the way, it hit the spectators behind him. It burned them to ashes.

"Bastard! You were aiming at the spectators all along?!" Alan questioned in rage.

"Heheh…since you won't die so easily for me I'll have to enjoy my killing where I can!"

Halloween continued to fire fireballs at the spectators. Alan threw his body to protect one section of the spectators, but that caused Halloween to aim in another section. Alan wasn't going to protect them on time. I took action and took control of Alviss' body. The rainbow wings on his back emerged, but not fast enough to my liking so I took off in the direction of the fireball when they were still growing. I managed to make it on time. When the fireball hit me, I was able to absorb the flames since my element is fire after all. (1)

"You're not going to kill anyone with me around!" I shouted.

"Go Suzaku!" Megumi and Mary cheered. They actually noticed it was me.

Halloween snickered evilly as he fired another fireball at the spectators to where Team MAR (and Pozun) was. I wouldn't make it on time, but luckily Megumi was there.

"Masashield!" she shouted as a big shield appeared and protected everyone from the fireball, "That includes me too! I'm not own as Megumi the girl with Ultimate Defense for nothing!"

"I chose the right person to hide behind after all…" Pozun mumbled to himself.

Alan glared at Halloween, "You heard them Halloween! As long as they're around, no one's going to get killed by you."

Halloween grinned evilly, "So you people would put your life over others? You people are self-righteous showboat, especially you Alan. You've gotten stronger, thought. No so much damage from Antares I see. But how about this? Explosive plants…Trick-or-Treat!" Halloween summoned walking pumpkins.

I flew down back to Ginta's side and mumbled, "Halloween is coming pretty early," before I let Alviss take over his body again.

Alan punched the walking pumpkins, "I might be a showboat, but you're a coward Halloween!"

Halloweens face turned dark, "I enjoy making you angry. You haven't changed at all. You yelled at me back then when I burned those stray dogs that attacked me, and the tree that I always hid in when those bullies attacked me."

That shocked Alan to the bone, "What? Wait…you…can't be…!"

"You didn't recognize me six years ago, did you? It's me. Your childhood friend!"

"Pump?!"

That's Pump that Alan-san was talking about?!

It must be. I'm not an expert of a person's past.

"Pump can that really be you?!" Alan questioned.

"That's right, Alan. When we first met at the War Games six years ago, I was thrilled, but I'm a Chess Piece and you're a cross guard. Fate placed us on opposite sides," Halloween told him.

"I never knew those two had such a history…" Mary mumbled.

Silence.

"-red vein- You were there when we heard about Alan's past!" Alviss yelled.

"He did? I can't remember."

"You and your selective memory."

Alan shook off the fact that Halloween was his friend off and told him that he was going to defeat him.

"Can you, Alan? Can you? Grave Hail!" Halloween summoned crosses with eye balls in them that headed toward Alan.

"What is that?!" Ginta questioned.

"Hmm. Much like Alviss' 13 Totem Pole!" Babbo told him.

"THAT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE MY ATTACK!" Alviss shouted.

"IT'S NOT THAT SCARY!" Mary added.

Alan punched and broke all of the crosses, "I destroyed them all Pump!" he taunted.

"Don't call me that! I am Halloween of the Zodiac!" Halloween yelled as he finally lost his tempered, "CROSS DAGGER! TURN TO FLAME!"

Halloween summoned flames that burned the whole field. Jack, Nanashi and Megumi told the spectators to get back as the match was going to get even hotter. Alan survived the attack easily.

"How does it feel, fighting against a childhood friend? I love it!" Halloween said, "You want me to turn you into a dog again?"

That pissed Alan off, "You're not the only one who uses fire! I won't hesitate to crush you, Pump! Flame Dragon!"

Alan summoned a fire dragon that collided with Halloween's flame daggers. It was a hot match as predicted. A match where it was fire against fire.

"Burn baby burn! Let's go inferno!" Alviss sung. Since his element was fire, he was enjoying the match greatly. Mary didn't though.

"-Sweatdrop- Alviss, you're not suppose to play with fire…" she told him.

"Who cares!" he shouted as he went back to yelling at Alan to turn up the heat.

I noticed at the top of the castle that Chaton, Kaolla, and Loco switched to their swimsuits since the heat seemed to be reaching them from up their as well.

"Evenly matched…against that geezer! That's one strong tomato!" Dorothy commented.

"Even as they throw out attacks…they're both also building up the magical power their respective Guardians need," Gaira explained.

"Alan-dono…" Edward mumbled.

Alan grinned, "I owe you one, pump. And I'm paying you back now!"

Halloween glared at his former friend, "You… looked down on me! You thought you were the better man. You thought you were so strong and I was so weak. Deep in your heart, you were mocking me!"

"What kind of crap is that?" Ginta asked Alviss.

"He's warped. A perfect model of Chess Psychology," Alviss told him.

Like totally.

Alan who had a cigarette in his mouth smoked some smoke before beginning to talk, "You know, all I wanted was to be your friend. That's all."

"You expect me to believe your lies?! It doesn't matter! We're in separate worlds now!" Halloween shouted.

Alan dropped his cigarette and then stepped on it, "True, Then it's hello and good-bye!"

"I didn't use this last time, but today…it means your death! Come fourth Guardian ÄRM Wakantanka!"

The Guardian Halloween summoned was a skull that look that of an Indian's. Let me tell you, IT WAS HUGE! It rammed into him and we thought that Alan was done for when he punched it aside shocking everyone but Alviss and Mary which they both went into otaku mode.

"He actually…" Ginta began.

"Punched that huge thing," Jack finished.

"Amazing…" Dorothy and Nanashi mumbled at the same time.

"That's our Alan-san!" Alviss said in his fan boy mode. (2)

"GO ALAN!" Mary cheered.

Alan continued to punch the ÄRM until he had enough strength to use the ÄRM that he should have used in Chaton's match.

"Here goes! Guardian ÄRM Saint Anger!"

Alan summoned two hands. If you ask me I would call them the Master Hand and Crazy Hand. (3) They were even bigger than the big Wakantanka! One of the arms grabbed the skull head Guardian and crushed it in it's palms.

"Wh-What?! An arm ÄRM?!" Halloween questioned quite surprised that there was such an ÄRM.

"Now…" Alan began, "Time to say goodbye, Pump."

The other arm grabbed Halloween and hurled him at the other arm which punched him with such force that he was destroyed in the process. I heard his last words though, but it was a shame that Alan didn't. You know, Alan…You really are strong…

There was nothing but silence. Halloween was dead.

"I can't believe Halloween-sama lost," Pozun mumbled, "…victory to Alan!"

The crowd cheers for Alan's victory. That was the fourth win. Now it wouldn't matter if Nanashi won or lost in the next round. The only thing that mattered now to make sure that Team MAR won the War Games was for Ginta to defeat Phantom once and for all.

Alviss frowned as the wings on his back disappeared, "No more fire…"

"Too bad. So sad," Mary said to him sarcastically.

On the top of the castle there was a lot of cheering coming from the cat and cheetah girl.

"I WON THE BET KAOLLA!" Chaton declared.

"THAT'S BECAUSE IT WAS THE POWER OF LOVE THAT TRIUMPHED!" Kaolla spat back as the two continued to argue about what to do now.

"Halloween-sama…farewell…" Loco mumbled. Her relationship with Halloween must of have been deep…

"ALL RIGHT OLD MAN!" Ginta cheered.

"Thanks," Alan checked his jacket and cursed, "Damn these burn marks."

"I'll heal them," Megumi said as she used that Saifogeo spell and healed him with it.

Pozun began to complain about losing his boss. Mary decided to make fun of him by saying that he out of a job.

"Now you should let us host the matches," Mary told him, "After all you're out of a job."

Pozun didn't say anything. Mary was about to laugh at him when suddenly a voice said, "I never thought I'd see Chimera and Halloween lose."

A figure then appeared on the battle field. It was Peta of course since I heard Kaolla cheer from the top of the castle.

"Pozun, you won't be out of a job until the final match is done," Peta told the purple demon, "Because of this, Kaolla will be your boss."

"WHY HER?! Yes Peta-sama…"

Nanashi and the Luberia thieves glared at Peta. Nanashi looked ready to pounce on him when Kaolla jumped down from the castle and glared at Nanashi.

"Tomorrow, Peta is going to kill you," she said in a threatening tone.

Megumi, Mary, and Alviss were shocked at the change in Kaolla's personality when she's with Peta.

"We'll see about that," Nanashi said in a low tone.

Peta grinned evilly as he disappeared along with Kaolla. Chaton and Loco vanished as well.

"I hope Nanashi's ready for this…" Alviss mumbled to himself.

I checked Nanashi's expression to see that he looked really upset. I really hope he would be okay.


A few hours after the battle, Team MAR decided to stay in groups of two tonight. Ginta was with Megumi as they wanted to catch up with what they both did in Tokyo. Jack was with Nanashi although he was upset when he saw Nanashi flirting with the ladies instead of training. Dorothy was with Alan discussing about Dianna of course. That left Alviss with Mary as they worked on Nanashi's cheer. That was until a storm blew.

"It's going to rain all night…" Alviss mumbled as he wrote down what he was going to say to Nanashi.

Mary was stunned though, "Oh shit!"

"What is it now Mary?"

"That place where I planted all my flowers are going to be destroyed if I don't get to the cliff!"

Wait. They didn't mention about these flowers before. She probably made it up, but I checked The Guardian of Earth's expression and he was just as shocked.

"…Wait here!"

"Alviss! Shouldn't we wait for-"

Alviss leaves without getting a raincoat or anything.

"You're going to drown yourself if you go there!" was the last thing I heard before he was out of sight from the castle.


Alviss continued to run to the place where Mary mentioned. I continued to yell at him to stop, but he refused to listen until I threatened to take over his body and rush back to the castle.

"Suzaku, if I don't hurry up then Mary's flowers will-"

She never said anything about flowers before! She's lying you baka!

"I can't believe you forgot that time!"

FLASHBACK

Six years ago before the deaths of Naru and Mary, there was a cliff that was on top of the ocean that was blooming with flowers. This place was Mary's favorite place to hangout despite their being a very high cliff. Alviss and Mary went there all the time to do their thing there.

"These flowers are so beautiful!" Mary commented as she began to make a flower necklace.

"Yeah. It's amazing how a storm can't reach this cliff," Alviss said.

Mary stopped doing her flower arrangement and stared at the blue sea, "They may be safe now, but this cliff is becoming unstable…soon it will fall into the sea taking these wonderful flowers with it."

Alviss frowned, "You're right…but what happens when that time comes?"

"I will defend this place with my life. These flowers are my treasure."

Mary said is so seriously that Alviss couldn't tell if that was the real Mary or not.

"If that's the case, then I'll protect these flowers as well Mary," he told her.

Mary smiled, "Then it's settled. THE OCEAN WILL NEVER TOUCH THESE FLOWERS!"

"-Sweatdrop- Right…can you please hurry up with the flower necklace? We need to finish it before Naru comes and finds us."

Mary turned toward Alviss and sighed, "It would help if YOU actually did something then just staring at me."

"HEY!"

The two of them laughed as they both pitched in to make the necklace made of beautiful flowers for their mother.

END OF FLASHBACK

"How can you forget that time if you were inside of me the whole time?!" Alviss questioned me.

That time…slipped my mind!

"Stupid bird!"

Alviss continued to run until he finally reached the cliff with all the flowers on it. They were still glimmering even during the storm. The cliff was cracking.

"13 Totem Pole!"

Alviss summoned his 13 totem poles to prevent the cliff from cracking any further as well as preventing it from slipping into the ocean. Alviss ran toward the flowers and summoned that fire shield to keep the flowers dry. It was a bad move since fire doesn't work well with water, so the shield was very weak. It would hold up to five minutes at best. Alviss would be very worn out by then so if he didn't move the cliff would fall taking not only the flowers but him with it.

Alviss, forget about the flowers and get out of here! Your life is more important!

Shut up Suzaku!


Normal POV

Back at Ragengrave castle…

"What the hell Mary?! Why didn't you go after him when he ran off?!" Ginta yelled. Apparently after he and Megumi were finished talking about Tokyo they went to check up on Alviss and Mary to see that he wasn't there. Only a ghost that was working on Nanashi's cheer.

"Because I'm a ghost, and if he fell into the ocean I wouldn't be able to help him anyway," Mary said sarcastically.

"Sad but true.." Megumi murmured.

"Dammit!"

Ginta leaves WITH the raincoat that Megumi forced him to bring. Babbo followed after him shortly.

"Why am I the one getting yelled at? I hope my hanas (4) are okay…"


It was five minutes already. Alviss' fire shield was weakened greatly. His totem poles weren't holding on anymore. The cliff was going to continue cracking until it finally broke off.

Alviss! You have to leave now!

No way! I promised Mary that I would protect the flowers and I intend to keep it.

Suzaku's warnings were futile. Alviss tried to bring up his shield up again, but he was worn out. Suddenly a strong wave came and snatched him off of the cliff.

Al…viss…

Suzaku lost communication as soon as the wave hit them. Alviss was forced into the sea. He couldn't swim, so there was no way he could swim to the surface.

Am I going to die right here…without even keeping Mary's promise? Alviss asked himself as he sunk deeper and deeper into the ocean, Ginta…


Ginta picked up the pace of his running to Babbo's dismay. The blonde thought he heard Alviss' voice near the cliff that had all the flowers on it.

"Alviss, I'm coming!" he shouted.

He made it to the cliff and realized that nobody was there.

"Alviss isn't here first servant," Babbo said as he finally managed to catch up to him, "He might have left already-"

"His aura is still here…" Ginta mumbled, But it's very faint. Don't tell me that Alviss fell into the ocean!

Ginta's heart froze when he saw a rainbow feather on the tip of the cliff, "Dammit Alviss! Don't die on me now!"

He did the most reckless thing that man has ever done and that was diving off the cliff into the ocean. Babbo looked at him like an idiot as Ginta hit the water.

Ginta swam deeper and deeper into the ocean searching for Alviss. He had to hurry as he was running out of breathe and he didn't want the same thing to happen like what happened at Ragengrave castle. He finally spotted Alviss caught in the seaweed which were wrapped around his body as well as his legs. Ginta swam in his direction and quickly untied the seaweed but he was almost out of air. He finally undid the seaweed and put Alviss on his back as he quickly swam to the top of the surface. He ran out of air near the top.

Don't fail me now you stupid body! I have to save Alviss no matter what! Ginta cursed at himself. He used his remaining strength to swim to the top of the ocean. Babbo spotted him and hurried down the cliff. Ginta swam to the shore and placed Alviss down first before lying down all tired out from swimming.

"You're a fool first servant!" Babbo shouted as he finally made it to the blonde.

"Shut up kendama!" Ginta managed to get out between him coughing and gasping for air. He looked at Alviss and knew that he was still breathing, "I'm glad Alviss is okay though." He then put the raincoat that Megumi gave him and threw it on top of Alviss' body to keep him warm.

The cliff began to crack more and more. It was on the verge of breaking completely with the flowers on it. Ginta had to do something fast because he didn't want Alviss' attempt to save the flowers (which were beautiful) to be in vain, so he summoned the last of his powers (which he shouldn't of had done) to use Babbo Version 3 to move the cliff with the flowers on it on flat grounds. It did exactly. Ginta was relieved as Babbo Version 3 placed the cliff on flat ground. The impact was so strong though that Ginta fell down. He was on the verge of fainting. Gargoyle turned back into Babbo Version 0 and stared at his user and sighed. Why are humans so hard headed?


Ginta woke up after an hour in his bed. The last thing he remembered was that he saved Alviss and the flowers before passing out. Megumi was sitting next to him with Babbo in her lap.

"You're awake," she said calmly, "We were so worried."

Ginta sat up, "Where's Alviss?!"

Megumi sighed, "After you didn't come back, Dorothy and I were starting to worry about you guys, so Mary showed us where the cliff was. When we got their, the cliff was…near the end of the forest and Dorothy had to use her broom to fly us over it. That was where we found you unconscious next to Babbo. Alviss was okay as we saw him on the cliff itself picking the flowers despite the storm still going on. I am quite disappointed in you on how you used the raincoat for yourself and because of that, poor Alviss has a fever."

Ginta let the information sink in before he realized what Megumi said about him having the raincoat, "But I put it on top of Alviss though."

"…Then Alviss must have put it on you to keep you from catching a cold. Sacrifices…"

Ginta ignored her as he was starting to feel very drowsy. He passed out soon after just as Megumi finished her lecture.

"That brat!" Megumi shouted as she left the room. Before she did though, she smiled at him. A guy like Ginta is so hard to find these days. Then again, I do have Kiyomaro so…


"ACHOO!"

Mary sighed. She didn't want to be in a room with her sick brother, "You know, you should have kept that raincoat on you if you didn't want to catch a cold."

Alviss was about to fight back but a cough came out instead of a sarcastic remark. She sighed again. Mary was currently making a flower necklace for someone as she had already finished the cheer. The cheer might not go well though because Alviss was sick and he might not be as loud as he is suppose to.

"Mary…will you be finished with that tonight?" he asked her in a weak tone.

"Sure. This is for Naru after all. She loved these type of flowers. She'll be happy to receive them even in death."

"That's good…"

There was silence in the room as Mary continued to make it. Alviss suddenly asked her, "Do you think that Nanashi will win tomorrow?"

"Of course. He'll be fine. After you left, that former Luberia leader Galian trained with him. Apparently he wants Nanashi to avenge the Luberia thieves. He'll be fine…but…"

"But what…"

"That cheetah girl…Kaolla was her name right?"

"Yeah."

"Nanashi will end up killing Peta to avenge the thieves…but I can't imagine what will happen to that cheetah girl. When I saw her looking at him…it felt like Peta was her world and if he died…her world would die too. Even though she has a sister that loves her so much."

"Love…can do a lot of things…" Alviss mumbled.

"Yeah…It's a shame that I'll never experience love in my life ever again. That's why I have to get Alviss to have what I can't obtain."

Mary looked at Alviss as he already passed out. Apparently, the fever was too much to handle. She sighed yet again, "The cheer is going to be so hard to do…"


In the Chess Piece headquarters…

"PETA! COME ON! YOU PROMISE THAT YOU WOULD SPEND TIME WITH ME!" Kaolla screamed as she bang the door where he and Phantom were. She was asking for a death wish. For a Bishop to talk to the number two Knight like that would surely have killed her. Too bad no one had the guts to kill her especially after the top Knights were losing, "I'M GOING TO RAM THE DOOR IF YOU DON'T OPEN UP!"

She began to count to the number ten. At the count of nine though Peta opened the huge door so fast that it hit Kaolla, and sent her flying into the wall that the door was pushed to.

"…I guess no one was here after all…" Peta mumbled as he was about to proceed back into the room when Kaolla quickly recovered and grabbed hold of Peta's long hair.

"You're not getting away from me!" Kaolla said in a dangerous tone.

Peta was unaffected as he brushed her off, but he didn't go back into the room though, "There you are."

Chaton and Loco watched from a distance as Kaolla continued to bug Peta until he finally decided to walk away from her. She continued to follow him.

Eventually they made it to Kaolla's room. The cheetah girl was not happy, "You haven't even told me what you wanted to tell me from that time."

Peta didn't say anything as he turned away from her.

"You better win tomorrow…"

"Do you really want me to win tomorrow?" he asked her.

Kaolla was shocked at the question. She took a deep breathe before explaining, "I really want Team MAR to win the War Games…but if it meant losing the person I love…then of course I want you to win…"

Peta turned to her with his usual emotionless face. Kaolla smiled faintly, "To me, you are my everything, and I wouldn't know what to do without you…"

Peta then did the most unexpected thing. He smiled. And the smile was for her and her only, "You grown soft ever since that day I asked you and your sister to join the Chess Pieces."

Kaolla blushed madly. She tried her best to hide it, but she couldn't. Not from him. Peta leaned closer to her when she wasn't looking. From Chaton's and Loco's POV he looked like he was kissing her, but in reality he just told her that he would tell her what he thought of her when he won his match tomorrow.

"Just don't die Peta…I love you…" she mumbled.

"I won't die. Not if it means being separated from you."

With that said Kaolla went into her room to sleep. Peta's smile faded as he felt Chaton's and Loco's presence. Chaton appeared and told him one thing as she had a camera in her hand, "Blackmail."

The two rushed off before Peta could attack them. He sighed, "Maybe I've grown soft too meeting you."


Me: Chapter 28 FINALLY done!

Yohko: Finally!

Kitsune: PetaxOC fluff na no da!

Me: I tried my very best to keep him in personality, but it just isn't my thing.

Toshiro: I bet you didn't put ANY effort in it.

Me: BE QUIET YOU!

Kitsune: Notes, na no da!

1. Originally Halloween used another attack to hit the spectators. In my story he fired another fireball which Alviss/Suzaku could easily counter.

2. Alviss really did go into fan boy mode in this episode. Don't believe me, watch episode 73 and 74.

3. Master Hand and Crazy Hand are the bosses in Super Smash Brothers Melee and when I saw this ÄRM I thought of these hands.

4. Hana means flower.

Kitsune: Will you pass that social studies test Momo?

Me: ABSOLUTELY! HIT ME IF I DON'T!

Toshiro: Fine by me.

Me:…Preview…

"N for nice hair!"

"A for…amazing Nanashi! -cough-"

"N for not being a n0oby!"

"A for awesome Nanashi! -cough-"

"S for super awesome Nanashi!"

"You copied that last one… H for…honorable…Nanashi?"

"I for incredible Nanashi!"

"…We used most of these words already! -cough-"

"WHO CARES! NANASHI ISN'T IMPORTANT!"

"-red vein- Then don't make a cheer and then say I'm not important!"


"P for perfect Peta!"

"E for Peta's exciting side!"

"T for terrific Peta!"

"A for awesome Peta!"

"GO PETA GO!"

Silence.

"You copied our cheer!"

"Or the awesome…-cough-"

"First comes first serve!"

"IT'S ON LIKE DONKEY KONG BETCH!"

Mary and Kaolla fight.


"…The winner is…Nanashi!"

The crowd cheers but silences as they look at Kaolla.

"Peta, don't die on me!"

"Kaolla…there's something I have to tell you before I die…"

"Don't die on me Peta!"

"…The truth is that…I love…you…"

Peta dies. L

"PETA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


"Naru…I don't know what to think of today's match…we won again…but it didn't seem like a win…"

Alviss…

"Maybe this is why you hated war so much…"


"Mary, what's wrong now?!"

"Alviss…he's…"

"He's what?!"

"Phantom…he's attacking Alviss…again…"

Mary faints.

"That bastard! I won't let him get away with this!"


Me: I'm going to cry in the next chapter…Peta is going to die…

Yohko: So?

Me: WHAT DO YOU MEAN SO?! What about poor Kaolla?!

Yohko: She finds another one to love?

Toshiro: -red vein- So heartless! Even I understand how Momo feels about Peta's death in the next chapter!

Silence.

Kitsune: Go Toshiro-kun na no da!

Me: And of course I plan for an attempted rape in the next chapter. Please read and review. Editing goes to Taisaya-chan. Don't kill me in the next chapter for killing Peta.
