Holy crap I'm continuing! I think I'm going to write one or two more chapters and then wrap it up! Not because of school or anything, but because I can't just go on and on (as much as I want to) I need to start something new...Maybe a new FLCL fic? Anyone that has any suggestions or challenges for a Furi Kuri fic please say so in a review or feel free to e- mail me! I'm also continuing because...well...I've gotten quite a few threats about not continuing, and, well...I really think I'm too young to die...so...here's for all of you...hehehe ^_^

Thank you for reading and reviewing my fic everyone! You all make me feel so good about my writing ability, and more importantly, you like it! Thank you reviewers! You rock my world:

Chapter Six: There Really Is A World Out There

They were going to go to every place their hearts desired. It was an all- new adventure awaiting them. All they needed now, was somewhere to start it...

"We can go anywhere you want." echoed through Naota's head all night long as he lay awake, not being able to sleep. He listened to the pitter-patter of the light rain falling and splashing onto his rooftop. Haruko was sleeping though, he could hear her soft snores every so often.

Naota knew where he wanted to go. He had wanted to go there ever since he was 12 years old. His dreams were coming true one-by-one. Things were just too good to be true.

He wouldn't wake up. Haruko was sitting on Naota's bed. She had just been shaking him, jumping up and down on him, and even smothering him with pillows, for the past twenty minutes trying to wake him up. He was hopeless. But he had to get up, their journey began today!

Haruko walked over to the wall where her old bass guitar was. Naota really did take good care of it..."Target - Aim - FIRE!!!" she screamed as she swung the huge bass down onto Naota's head. That should do it.

Naota's head was throbbing from the beating Haruko gave him with her old bass. Well...at least there were no robots this time. They were always much more painful.

"Ooooh Ta-Kun is finally awake!" Haruko laughed as she put the guitar back where she had gotten it.

"Yea...thanks for the wake-up call." he retorted, slightly angry and annoyed he had woken up with the worst headache he's had in three years.

He got up and showered. The hot water and steam seemed to make Naota feel a lot better. Everything was fine. No, everything was perfect. Haruko was here, how could things be wrong?

When you live in a town like Mabase, you seem to forget there's anything outside it. Everything here is just...ordinary. Normal. Nothing strange ever happens here. But now, Haruko is here, and she proves that it's true, there really is a world out there. And she's going to show it to him.

Naota came down the steps lazily, as he always did every morning. He turned to enter the kitchen when he heard a very familiar, very annoying, scream. If that's what you'd call it. It was more like a screech. Haruko. He ran into the living room, she wasn't there. He could've sworn the scream came from here...

"Got'cha!" Haruko screamed. Naota whirled around only to be tackled and pinned to the floor by Haruko. He didn't put up much resistance...wonder why...

"Where do you want to go first Ta-Kun?" she asked him, scratching his cat ears.

Naota didn't think Haruko would of asked him where he wanted to go. He just thought they would hop onto her Vespa and go wherever she took them. This was unexpected.

"I...I want to go to the states. To see my brother play baseball. That's all." he told her. He wasn't sure if she'd be up for it or not, but that was the truth, that was where he wanted to go. More than anything.

"Alright let's go!!!" Haruko exclaimed as she hopped up and pulled Naota up by his arms and flung him out the door behind her. She threw him on the back of her Vespa and sped away. Just like that.

This was it. This was real. This was the beginning of their adventure, their new lives together. They were finally leaving Mabase, together, forever.

Ok, I know this chapter was NOT my best, and NOT too long, but I was quite sleep-deprived when I wrote it, but I had to do it then because if I didn't you would all have to wait a week for the next chapter and I just couldn't do that to you! I love you all too much! One more chapter after this and then I must end it! But I will be happy to write anything for anyone! Just say the word and I will do my best to make it happen!! Please review and thank you for reading!
