Chapter II: Balamb, the Underwater SchoolThat night, the four families met in the SAKURA RESIDENCE and had dinner. After eating...
"We called you all here since when we had our little talk with the principal, we have noticed something," Mr. Sakura said, starting a conversation.
"When the girls slept," Mr. Orihara said, "the teachers didn't see them because... they have been transported to another world."
"NANI?!"
Mr. Sakura took out a book from under the table, with the title: "FINAL DESTINATION OF NABURU II"
"This book was once the 'Final Destination of Naburu I'," Mr. Sakura said. "But now it became II and it has no more writings from pages five and up."
"The four pages have different content from book I," Mrs. Sakura said. "Book I only said that the gate to Hyrule can be opened ONLY ONCE."
Ayu suddenly raised her hand.
"Ayu," Maya hissed, "this isn't school!!" Ayu blushed.
"Yes, do you have a question?"
"Um, what exactly is HYRULE and what and where is the gate?" Ayu asked.
"Hyrule," Mr. Sakura started, "is a...fantasy world, another world. And the gate...are your dreams, all four of you."
"Oh!" Sayaka exclaimed. "So that's why we 'disappeared' last night!!"
"Let me tell you the whole story...
'Balamb, a school for...somehow 'special' children, but those children who have the gate to Hyrule, and its Headmaster received some kind of a mission for the students from Hyrule. The three of us, including some of our closest friends, were students that time. Our mission was to find the culprit who used a very powerful mask to control the minds of other people. And after three years, we caught the...culprit. That person who used the mask to control the minds of the people of Hyrule to rule the world was locked deep in an underground prison cell. The mask was also sealed by the king using a very powerful and tricky spell no one has ever broken before.'
"But the gate is opened again," Nina said. "What happened? Why did it open again?"
"We don't know," Mr. Sakura said. "But what we do know, as it is written here, is that 'former evil beings will combine forces to reek havoc and devastation in both worlds.' But one thing is strange about this."
"There is no sign of anyone powerful enough to do so in the book," Mr. Orihara said.
"Maybe the book doesn't say so because... its one of us!!" Sayaka exclaimed. Nina shook her head. "Sayaka, you're so nega..." (negative)
"At least I have a hypothesis or something like that..." Sayaka mumbled. "Even though its...er, wrong."
Mrs. Sakura stood up. "I'll call the others." Then she went to the kitchen.
"Anyway," Mr. Sakura said, addressing it to the parents. "Are you willing to enroll your children to Balamb? There they can learn to control the gate."
"If its for the better, yes," Mr. Tateishi said. Soon after, the others agreed. Then, Mrs. Sakura entered the dining room.
"I have contacted all of them, well, except for Cloud. He's not in his house." Mrs. Sakura told her husband.
"Well, some said he went to Paris two years after our mission. I went to his house to months ago." He told his wife.
"Do you think...?" Mr. Sakura nodded. "Positive. Anyway," he turned to the kids, "I guess you still have to wait for the others."
"What?" Maya said. "But I wanna sleep!!"
"You girls will sleep here because we have a 'dream controller'." Mrs. Sakura informed them. "It is a machine used to stop you from transporting to Hyrule."
"Ooh..." Maya said. "Can I sleep now?"
"MAYA!" Mrs. Orihara said.
"Don't worry, she may," Mrs. Sakura told Maya's mother.
Then the doorbell rang. Nina got the door. It was Mr. and Mrs. Kaji and Mrs. Tsujiai. Mr. Sakura stood up.
"I'm glad you're all here," he said, leading them towards the living room. Those in the kitchen also went to the living room. Mr. Sakura told the others what happened.
"Yes, our children also did that 'disappearing act'." Mr. Kaji said.
"Do you think we should call him right now?" Mrs. Tsujiai asked. Mrs. Kaji nodded. "I'm positive of it."
"I'll call him," Mr. Orihara volunteered.
He went to the kitchen. Suddenly, when Mr. Orihara hung up the phone, the doorbell rang. It was Nina's grandfather, Cid.
"Otosan, we --" Mr. Sakura said, but Cid cut him off.
"Yes, I know," Cid said. "The Final Destination of Naburu II told me. Hmm..." he scanned the living room. "Where are the other children?"
"Those boys never listen to us," Mrs. Tsujiai said, putting her hands on her hips.
"Yes, but they will listen to me! Their new headmaster!!" he said quite emotionally; all sweat dropped.
"Oh, yes!" Mrs. Kaji suddenly said. "Our friends, Mr. Kirishima and Mrs. Kazuma [1] said that their sons also--"
"Yes, yes," Cid said. "I have already contacted them and told them to enroll their children in Balamb."
Ayu suddenly raised her hand.
"Ayu!" Maya said.
"So?" Ayu hissed. "You've got a problem with it?"
"Guys, calm down!" Nina said. "Ano... ojiisan? I have a question..."
"What is it?" Cid asked.
"Where is Balamb?" Ayu and Nina asked in unison. They both looked at each other and thought (in unison) 'Great minds think alike.'
"Balamb..." Cid said, "is an underwater school."
"Nandeste?!" Maya exclaimed. "So we have to swim?! Souna..."
"Don't be silly!!" Cid said. "Of course not!! There's a passageway, obviously."
"Honto? WHEW!!!!"
"Why ask, Maya?" Sayaka whispered. "Don't know how to swim?"
"Of course I do know!!!!" Maya whispered back, obviously flushing. "I-I just didn't want my outfit to get soaked and be ruined for school!!!!"
Sayaka rolled her eyes. "You are such a bad liar," she whispered. "Are you lying or lying?"
"I am NOT!!!!" Maya hissed.
[AHEM] Cid, or Headmaster for short, which is really stupid 'coz 'Cid' is actually shorter than 'headmaster', cleared his throat. "As I was saying, Balamb is under Eden Sea, inside Gaea Garden, in Marbule Island..."
Sweat drop...
"In short it is underwater," he finished.
Sweat drop...
