WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE PART 3: SURPRISE! SURPRISE!

A/N: My fourth chapter! Man this is gonna rival my very first fanfic (which totally sucked because it was so freakin' confusing… I was only 10 people!) Well, I need somebody to do the disclaimer, now lemme see… *flips through stack of papers* hmm… how about Excel from Excel Saga!

*A hyper-active highschool graduate suddenly pops out of nowhere, looking a little dazed and confused*

Excel (pauses in the middle of her Ilpalazzo speech): Eh? (Looks around, question marks appearing around her head) Nani!? Where am I!?!

Me: Ex-chan! You're here to do the disclaimer!

Excel: Really? Will this help Across' plan in taking over F City???

Me: Hai! Sure! ^_^;;;;

Excel: (pumps fist in the air, gets a crazed *yes I know she's usually crazed* look in her eyes) OKAY!!! All the characters in this fic (unless named otherwise) are not owned by Nelly-chan, but by their respectful people and persons. The plot and other various made-up things are owned by Nelly-chan. Please do not sue her because she has NO money left after buying EXCEL SAGA (Excel grins) and a new wallet. The only thing she can give you is a pair of glassless glasses. (turns toward Nelly, grinning) so how'd I do?

Me: Stupendous, Excel! Maybe I should get you and Hyatt cameos in one of my future stories, ne?

Excel: What would you need Hyatt for?

Me: Why, because you two are so kawaii together, it's GOTTA be a yuri fic about you two!

Excel: (shocked, beyond speaking. Is that even possible???) ehhhh???? N-no way! NEVER! (runs away)

Me: Ahh, they always seem to do that… anyway now (finally) let's get on with Surprise! Surprise!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Last we left off:

"Seven minutes are up" Juri finally said. Getting up, Elza knocked on the door.

"Haruka!" she called, "Time's up!"

About 30 seconds later, the door opened to reveal Haruka in a button-down t-shirt and jean shorts.

"So are we gonna continue to play or what?" she asked, looking around. She noticed her mother and Sakura were gone (probably out to have some fun…) and that Michiru wouldn't look her straight in the eye. 'Heh… if she's homophobic… she's gonna have a little bit of a problem getting past me and Juri…' Haruka chuckled to herself. 'That and her mother…'

Walking past Michiru, and down the stairs, Haruka smiled once again.

'The night has just begun Michiru…' she thought, 'and while Kaori's away Haruka will play…'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As soon as everyone was seated again in Haruka's living room, the game resumed.

"Okay Haruka, it's your turn" Minako said, grinning. Scanning the room, Haruka held the most arrogant smirk on her face.

"Hmm…" she said, "Now who shall be my vict- I mean choice…?" she murmured, stroking her chin. Smiling, Haruka scanned the room once again. Staring at Michiru, Haruka grinned.

"Motoko…" Haruka began, "Truth or Dare?"

"Dare." Motoko stated simply. 'Bring it on Haruka…' she thought, 'I'm ready for anything you can dish out.'

"Alrighty then!" Haruka chuckled. "I dare you to…" making eye contact with the kendo star, Haruka's eyes gleamed mischievously.

"To what Haruka?" Motoko asked, her gaze never wavering from Haruka's. Inside however, she was becoming nervous. 'Maybe this wasn't the best idea…'

"I dare you to do a striptease for Juri here." Haruka sat back and smiled again. She guffawed at the look on Motoko's face.

"N-nani!?!?!?!?" she screeched. 'She did NOT just dare me to… to striptease for Juri!?' Motoko panicked.

"You heard me, Motoko-chan" Haruka replied. 'This is gonna be FUN… Hehehe… she asked for it…'

Blushing, Motoko stuttered a protest, but Haruka cut her off, "Nuh uh uh Motoko-chan. If you don't do this dare, you'll have to kiss Makoto-chan. And that means three minutes, frenching and everything."

Grumbling, Motoko looked over to Juri, who of course was trying not to laugh.

"Well?" Haruka asked, "Which is it gonna be? Striptease for Juri or frenching Makoto? I know two people who would kill you for doing the latter…" she grinned.

"Fine! You win Haruka…" Motoko sighed in defeat. 'This would be so much easier if it was Kikoko…'

"Ami, go upstairs and bring down my stereo, please?" Haruka smiled, her gaze never leaving Motoko. Looking away for a split second, she made eye contact with Elza, who nodded and walked off. Ami went upstairs, and quickly returned with the aforementioned stereo. Elza returned also, CD in one hand, and something in the other.

Taking the stereo from Ami, Haruka set it on the ground in front of Michiru. Taking the CD from Elza, she placed in the stereo, setting it to play in a couple of minutes.

"Here" Haruka said to Michiru, handing her the small gadget Elza previously held. "Put this on top of the stereo and press this little button when I tell you to start the music. Make sure it's aimed at Motoko, okay?"

"Why do I have to do this?" Michiru asked. Smiling, Haruka whispered something into her ear, making her blush.

"Because…" Haruka had whispered, "I know you can keep a secret. And besides, I want you to have fun here, not sit and brood over me being female." She smiled, turning around and walking back towards the middle of the circle created when they began the festivities.

'Brood?' Michiru thought, 'I'm not brooding over her!'

"Ladies and Ladies!" Haruka gathered their attention. "This is the moment you've all been waiting for! The main event!" a few snickers were heard from the group. "After years of planning, we've finally done it! We have finally found a Dare that the Mighty Motoko does not like!" Cheers were heard, along with laughter. "Now what is it you ask? Why, doing a striptease for our wonderful fencing champion, Juri!" Smiling, Haruka continued, "And without further ado, let's get this even going! Michiru, start the music!"

Hitting the "Play" button on Haruka's stereo, Michiru also turned on Haruka's little gadget. The first few chords of the song were heard, and the girls all started chatting excitedly as they recognized "Love Scene" by Janet Jackson. Motoko swallowed hard, and started her striptease.

Sitting down next to Michiru, Haruka hummed along to the song. Michiru glanced at Haruka out of the corner of her eye.

"Do you really have to embarrass her like this?" Michiru whispered. Smiling, Haruka nodded.

"She has dished out some very terrible dares in the past, and we wanted to get her back" she replied. "She's gotten plenty of embarrassing videos and pictures of us, so we decided to get her back this time."

Sighing, Michiru watched the scene in front of her. 'This has GOT to be the most disgusting group of women I have ever met…' she thought. Glancing around the room, Michiru noticed that some of the girls were cuddled up to each other. 'Ami and Minako on either side of Makoto… mom and Kei-san… Elza's sprawled on the couch… Shiori next to Juri… Kikoko…' Unconsciously, Michiru moved closer to Haruka. She didn't even realize she had rested her head on Haruka's shoulder, let alone had taken Haruka's hand and twined her fingers with the wild tomboy's.

'This feels… so… right…' Michiru sighed, smiling softly as she was pulled into an embrace. Her eyes returned to Motoko, who was slowly stripping off her undershirt.

'I feel like I'm in a dream… a wonderful dream…' Michiru looked up when she felt strong fingers gently stroking her hair.

'Kami… her hands…' in her dream-like state, Michiru looked at their twined hands. They fit perfectly together. 'So soft… and yet so strong…'

Haruka's eyes glazed over as she felt Michiru move even closer to her, and her breath on her neck.  'Gods… this girl is…' her thoughts were cut short as she felt the whisper of a kiss touch her neck. Thrilling chills ran down her spine. Looking down, she met Michiru's dreamy gaze. Unconsciously, Haruka's face moved closer to Michiru's.

'That dream…' Haruka thought. 'She's the girl that I was gonna kiss in that dream…' She inwardly groaned as she felt gentle hands stoke through her hair. 'Only this time… I'm gonna kiss her… and it's for real…'

Drawing closer to the other, Michiru and Haruka's eyes simultaneously closed as their lips met in a passionate, earth-shattering kiss.

Minutes passed, but they didn't notice…

…Because with that one kiss…

…… Haruka……

…… and Michiru's……

………… Lives…………

……………………… Were changed forever………

"Sir?" a soft voice asked into the darkness.

"Yes, what is it?" A deep voice replied, glasses shining in the distance.

"Sir, the two have made contact. What should we do?"

Silence.

"Sir?"

"Tell Agent 9 to take care of the intruder. I CANNOT let them ruin my plans…" the voice replied.

"Yes sir." The young soldier bowed, and walked out of the room.

"Haruka… Michiru… Kaori… Kei… Sakura…" the voice whispered, "Soon… very soon you'll know…"

A picture of two smiling, laughing 5-year-old blondes fell to the ground.

"Haruka… soon you WILL know the truth…"

A deep, manical laughter resounded throughout the room.

"Oh yes, my dear Haruka… soon you will know…"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

TO BE CONTINUED!!!!!

A/N: Oh man! I'm hoping that it wasn't as sappy as I think it is. Ah, oh well, this story's actually becoming better and better as I write. Stay tuned for the next chapter, "Welcome To Hell, Haruka"!

Excel: This is gonna be a dramatic chapter! What's gonna happen?

Me: Let's just say, that kiss has opened up a world full of shit for Haruka. Also, chapter 2 of Mugen Gaukken Mafia should be up pretty soon, as soon as I figure out what I had written before my computer crashed a while back…

Excel and me: Ja ne for now, minna! ^_^
