Hey all! Ok, honestly, I didn't think that I was going to write any more for this story ... but because of requests through reviews and emails, I figured I might as well continue ...

Michiru ran towards Haruka and jumped onto her smothering her with hugs and kisses, thankful to the skies that she survived such a crash. Ouch ouch ouch! The blonde gritted through her teeth, and Michiru quickly let go.

Gomen nasai!! the aqua haired girl said, her eyes pleading with forgiveness.

It's alright ... Haruka mumbled, slightly wincing. I hope that bastard gets what he deserves. she added, seeing Hasako being taken away by the police.

Yatero came on over and patted his fellow racer on the back, Nice work, Tenoh-san! We all knew that you were going to come out of this alright. Haruka smiled, and tried to hide a laugh as she noticed several tear stains on his face.

We wouldn't want anyone to know that you were perhaps, crying, no? she teased.

Yatero's face quickly turned pink and he looked away, You let anyone find out and ... and ... damnit Haruka! The blonde laughed and slapped his back, Of course I wouldn't tell anyone. But there was a mischevious tone in her voice, Yatero winked at her and headed back to his change rooms.

~*~ Time lapse: 2 years ~*~

Haruka rolled under her covers slightly, unable to fall asleep. Her sleeping beauty stirred slightly, and from then on she was cautious with her movements. ~Argh ...~ she thought to herself, glancing at the clock and reading 3am. She got up slowly and grabbed her navy silk robe, closing the bedroom door silently behind her.

She went into the kitchen and pulled out a glass of water when suddenly someone jumped out and tackled her to the ground. The glass smashed into the ground shattering over the tiles; from above Michiru woke up with a start. she called out. There was the sound of another thump, and she got up and ran towards the door to see what was going on, but it was completely sealed shut.

The person grabbed Haruka's clothing pulling the blonde to her feet, but she swung her arm around and slashed at the person's face, cutting through his black mask and puncturing his skin with one of the glass shards. he shouted, throwing a punch at her and smacking her directly in the cheek bone. Kicking her again in the gut she fell to her knees, coughing out blood. The next thing she felt was something smash in the back of her head, before falling unconscious on the cold tiles.

Michiru kicked the door open, breaking the hinges that held it there. She ran downstairs, nearly tripping over her own feet. She stopped and gasped at what she saw, grabbing onto the staircase railing for support. The kitchen was a complete mess; several cabinet doors were smashed in, pots and pans were scattered throughout, glass littered the ground, and everything was speckled with blood. The only thing missing in this picture was Haruka.
