AN- sorry for taking so long with an update, Real Life got in the way.
College is evil: p
---The mall near Bear's house---
"I'm going to get you a new outfit!" Mimiru's sudden announcement made Tsukasa cringe slightly. The amusement sparking in Mariko's brown eyes didn't help either. Mumbling to herself, Tsukasa glared at Mimiru while a fonder look was directed at Subaru. The heavy blade rolled her eyes at the both of them. "Earth to Tsukasa, the clothing store is strait ahead!"
"Why did I let myself to be talked into this?" Ignoring the wavemaster's plea for help, both Subaru and Mimiru steered Tsukasa directly inside. Once there the heavy blade smiled with glee, "Now where to start?"
*10 mins later*
"GET BACK HERE! WE HAVENT EVEN TRIED MAKE-UP YET!" An employee came over to the screaming Mimiru. "Can I help you miss?"
Deep within the clothing department Tsukasa was hiding by the dressing rooms. Her gray eyes shined with relief. "She's insane, there is no way in hell, I won't ware a gown!" Peeking over the counter she noticed that Mimiru was being distracted. Smiling she was about to make a run for the food court when a hand gently touched her shoulder. "Running away again?" That voice sent a shiver down Tsukasa's spine, turning she came face to face with Mariko. "Yes I am, for my heath." Subaru's eyes widened then she laughed. Tsukasa was about to turn back to watching Mimiru when the heavy axe grabbed her hand. "Lets go then!" Grinning with delight the two of them slipped past their friend and headed for the movie theater. A black haired man spotted the two sneaking towards the entrance of the store.
At the ticket booth Tsukasa paid for the both of them. Once seated inside, Subaru leaned her head on An's shoulder. A calm feeling engulfed the former wavemaster. *Just like that time near the tree in Dun Lorieag. * These thoughts brought a smile to Tsukasa's face. Her confidence boosted, she slowly stretched her arm over the back of Mariko's seat. Subaru of course noticed this action and wrapped Tsukasa's arm around her shoulder.
Meanwhile outside the clothing store, Mimiru paced around. Annoyance flashed across her face. "If I were them, where would I hide?" The heavy blade failed to notice the alarmed look on the young man's face standing behind her. His green eyes nearly popped out of his head. "I'll protect you Lady Subaru, on my honor, "he thought reverently. Believing his former leader to be in mortal danger Silver Knight made his way near the food court, hoping to find Subaru there. Upon reaching his destination, he sighed in despair. "What did she ever see in that wavemaster anyway? Its foolish to think them together in this world."
(AN- Man is he in a state of denial. ^_^)
Subaru's eyes began to close, it wasn't because the movie was boring or anything, in fact for the first time in her life she felt complete. Even her worries about not being able to walk were drifting farther away in her mind. The soothing beat of Tsukasa's heart lulled the heavy axe into a peaceful slumber. Glancing down, Tsukasa noticed the relaxed expression on Mariko's face. With the greatest of care, the wavemaster gently moved a lock of hair off of Subaru's forehead.
"The one who was waiting was me, I'm glad I don't have to wait anymore." A sheepish look appeared on Tsukasa's face, "Weren't you supposed to be asle-- --" This reply was cut short as Mariko wrapped her arms around Tsukasa's neck, then the heavy axe kissed the other lightly on the lips. For a moment the wavemaster froze with shock then responded in kind until a voice was heard over near the exit. "LADY SUBARU!!" Tsukasa made a mental note to kill Mr. Toshi a.k.a. Silver Knight for ruining the moment.
"What a mood killer," thought Subaru.
Footsteps clattered down the walkway, closing in on the couple's seats. Green eyes looked at the both of the women in confusion. "I was worried about you Lady Subaru, Its good to know you're alright." His voice held a note of jealousy. Apparently he noticed the guarded look in Tsukasa's eyes and the way she had placed her arm around Mariko. It was a possessive gesture. "Why are you here?" This question made Silver Knight glare down at the "uppity" wavemaster, "For your information, I was just----" Tsukasa cut off his reply with a look of her own. "Lets go Mariko. Mimiru must be in fits looking for us." With that final remark the both of them left the shocked Crimson Knight behind.
*Outside the theater*
Mimiru was about to have the attendant page her friends when she saw Tsukasa push Subaru rather dejectedly out of the movie area. "HA! YOU CAN'T HIDE NOW!" A rather knowing wink formed on Mimiru's face as they approached her. "So that's where you guys were, I knew you had it in you Tsukasa!" Scarlet red, the shy wavemaster could only grin as the heavyblade laughed. Subaru of course held her head up high, completely satisfied with the situation. This moment of bliss was ruined when Mr. Toshi came walking over to them, intending on winning the former lady of the Crimson Knights favor again. "Sora told me your real gender, I cannot lose to an illegal player such as you." Mimiru rolled her eyes at his boast. "You realize we aren't in the World anymore. You need a life. Even Bear has a life outside the game, I even know what he does for a living now."
Tsukasa cut in. "Indeed, as I recall it took you 4 guesses to get his job right." Mimiru pouted slightly. "Where are you getting this information?" Subaru could only smile as the two friends bickered genially back and forth utterly ignoring Silver Knight in the process. This of course miffed him greatly. Just as he laid his hand on Mariko's left shoulder to get her attention, Tsukasa growled and lunged for his midsection, tackling him to the ground. Fists went flying as the smaller wavemaster proceeded to defend her loved one's honor. " Get it in that thick head of yours, she doesn't love you!" yelled Tsukasa. Mariko smiled discreetly as her soulmate pummeled the former captain. Mimiru sighed, and thought to herself "What a day."
---Flashback sequence ended---
*At the Tokyo Private Boarding school*
Tsukasa looked up as Mimiru and Subaru entered her dorm room. She immediately went over to the heavy axe and swept her up into a massive hug. Mariko smiled and wrapped her arms around Tsukasa's waist.
Seeing the direction that this was going in the heavy blade left the room and decided to access the World from the campus library.
"You have mail" showed up in bright green letters across the monitor. Interested she clicked on it. "What the hell...Sora!? Why that guy?"
