Shoujo Kakumei Utena Otakufic OAV
Episode 4: "Of Apocalypse and Roses"
by Rose Priestess
Opening Theme: Rinbu Revolution
Scene: The halls of Roosevelt. Samantha is running like mad searching for someone. She runs into one of the biology classrooms and finds Utena and Anthy at the lab tables studying some new breeds of roses.
Samantha: [panting] Utena!
Utena: I'm sorry, have we met?
Samantha: No, but this is quite urgent...
Utena: Wait a minute, that uniform! You're on the Student Council, too!
Samantha: Yes, but please -- [she's interrupted by the entrance of a student aide who hands Utena a card]
Card: [on front] Utena Tenjou [inside card] To the one Engaged: I shall wait for you at the Duel Arena this evening.
Samantha: **I'm too late. She's really going through with this, isn't she?**
Scene: Lunch. Samantha is sitting on her usual bench talking to Scott about the whole fiasco thus far.
Samantha: And now it seems as if the continuity is crossing over to the Black Rose Saga, but...but something still isn't right. It's as if our mere presence has disrupted what little order the story line had to begin with.
Scott: [mimicking Mikage] Deeper, go deeper.
Samantha: [rolls her eyes] Funny. Not to mention that I'm at my wit's end trying to figure out what Akio's true intentions are. [looks around cautiously to make sure he isn't there]
Scott: Man, that is just *so* wrong!
Samantha: True, but what's there to do?
Scott: No, I mean why couldn't this have happened with Dragonball Z or Nadesico?
Samantha: [flatly] I don't think you *quite* comprehend the severity of the situation...
Scott: [laughs] I know, I'm just screwing with your mind.
Samantha: I've had more than enough of that as of late, thank you very much.
Scott: Well, this sounds a lot like the old "Genie in a Bottle" tale. Y'know, how the only prison for the Genie was its bottle. Maybe it works the same way for Utena, but we don't know what the proverbial bottle is.
Samantha: [places head in hands and is silent for a while, mulling over what to do] I...I think I've got it. It may not work, but I must try before this all gets out of hand! I gotta go, bye Scott! [dashes off]
Scott: [muttering] Strange, strange girl.
Scene: Roosevelt's auditorium. It's evening and the time of the duel, seeing as how there are no forest arenas located on the campus. "Zettai Unmei Mokushiroku" blares over the sound system. Utena takes her place beside Anthy, prepared to fight, as Sarah steps from the shadows from the other side of the stage. Akio acts as her Rose Bride. Samantha sits in the far back of the auditorium rapidly typing away on a laptop.
Utena: [taken aback] A-Akio-san...
Anthy: O roses of noble sentiment...I beseech thee, reveal...
Anthy and Utena: ...the power to Revolutionize the World! [the duel begins. "Inhuman Illusory Soul Fusion Magic" plays in the background.]
Song: They can be divine spirits, they can be evil spirits. Ah, even if Heaven's vapors were brought here...
Akio: [takes a seat next to Samantha. She unfalteringly continues clicking away on the laptop] What are you working on, hmm? [notices a script of episode 39 on the computer] That is...
Song: Secret thoughts can also be virtue! They can also be vice! Ah, even if Hell's bewitching atmosphere were carried here...As long as such suspicious forms do come, they shall have a dialogue!
Samantha: [finishes what she was working on except for the last sentence] I cannot allow you to turn Roosevelt into another Ohtori. If this is the only way to put a stop to you, then so be it... [types "The End." on the screen]
Song: On a moonlit night already severely cold, might a spirit leave its body!
Akio: You wouldn't dare!
Sarah: [through a clashing of the swords, she winds up with both of them. She points them at Utena's rose, preparing to slice it off easily] This is the end.
Song: A mystery beyond the ken of humans and humanity, dwarfed by their Creator, is made to tremble in fear at the sight!
Samantha: [saves the file to the computer and all remnants of Ohtori disappear in a shower of light, including both Sarah's sword and the Sword of Dios] [narration] That was only a month ago, but it seems so much longer. Every detail is still vivid in my memory, as if I had lived it all yesterday. Sarah has no recollection of any of the events, which is probably good for her, but I retain my Rose Signet and Seitokai uniform to this day. The Utena universe seems to have been restored to its natural order, but...then again, Roosevelt's Student Council didn't return from Ohtori. Some things can never be changed, I suppose. Oh well, at least there's a lot less cheerleaders! Gee, I guess Akio *is* good for something.
Ending Theme: Truth
Author Notes: And thus ends the first arc of my fan fiction! Dun' worry, there's LOTS more to come, lol! As always, reviews, flames, and MSTs are greatly appreciated!
