Nichi: I checked the date yesterday...

Nichi sat alone, in a house.

Nichi: Turns out, a week ago is the day me and Etsel arrived in the future.

She looked out a window.

Nichi: It's been three years. Three, long years, plus...

She stepped outside and looked at the grey sky.

Nichi: Michi, kind of... Vanished, I haven't seen her in just over two years.

She started walking.

Nichi: Etsel wanted to talk to me today, she said to meet at the park.

She walked by a large sign that said "Welcome to the first capitol not inhabited by a CPU, Neo Planeptune."

Nichi: Let's go.


Nichi walked into a park, sat on a bench, and looked over the lake in front of her.

Nichi: *sigh*

She had her shoulder tapped, she looked, there was Etsel, who looked a good bit older than before, her hair had a tie on the side, making one ponytail on the right of her head, only adding to her hair, she was wearing a black school uniform, the collar was shaped like a thunderbolt on each side.

Nichi: Hey, Etsel.

Etsel: Hi.

Etsel sat down, she now looked truly older than Nichi, who had only grown a few inches.

Nichi: Why'd you wanna see me?

Etsel: We... Need to talk.

Nichi: About what?

Etsel: Look, over these three years we've been systematically avoiding eachother, saying "Oh yeah, we're friends!"

Nichi: Hmm?

Etsel: The truth is, there are reasons why we avoid eachother... What are they?

Nichi: I... I don't know...

Etsel: Neither do I...

Nichi stood up and clenched her fist.

Nichi: We both know damn well why YOU have.

Etsel: What do yo-?

Nichi: Don't play dumb, you know what I mean.

Etsel: I... That wasn't your fault, Nichi.

Nichi: No, it was, it was my own inability to control myself.

Etsel: No!

Etsel stood up.

Etsel: That isn't true! My-!

Nichi: "Friend didn't kill her"? That's what you were about to say, wasn't it!?

Etsel: Yes...

Nichi: Sounds like denial to me.

Etsel: What?

Nichi: It was my fault... Michi was me back then, I was her, her actions, were mine.

Etsel: What do you mean?

Nichi: I mean, the only way you'll get past your sister's death is...

She turned to Etsel.

Nichi: To strike me down.

Etsel: What!? No!

Nichi: Etsel, please, this is the only way I'll feel better, and feel I've repayed you.

Etsel: I...

Nichi: Please.

Etsel took a hilt off her belt.

Etsel: I'm sorry for this...

She hit a button and a beam sword came from the hilt, she backed up, then ran at Nichi.

Nichi: Goodbye...

Nichi closed her eyes, but instead of a wound, she felt weight around her shoulders.

Nichi: Huh..?

She opened her eyes, Etsel was hugging her, crying.

Etsel: You idiot...

Nichi: What?

Etsel: I've lost my sister... What makes you think I want to lose you too..?

Nichi: I-

Etsel: Nichi...

Etsel let go, and wiped her eyes.

Nichi: Don't you remember what I said?

Etsel: What?

Nichi: Me and you are sisters now.

Etsel: Right... Yeah, we are.

Nichi: Well, I guess that's it then... We beat the evil and found happiness.

Etsel: Nichi?

Nichi: Yeah?

Etsel: If we've "beaten the evil"...

She looked Nichi in the eyes, with an angered expression.


Etsel: Then why is the story still going?
