Another Generation

Chapter Two: New Beginnings

(A.N. okay so last chapter, Himeno and Hayate were married and had a son named named Katai and Himeno was pregnant. Also Goh was married to a girl named Nami and they had a son named Goro. Now it's fourteen years later, Katai is now 16 and in highschool, Goro is 14 and in eighth grade, Himeno and Hayate's second son, Hiro, is now 13 and in seventh grade. Sasame still hasn't found love and is now 34. Kei, as well, has not found love and is also 34. Mannen is now 27, Hajime is 24, and Shin is 21. Katai is the new knight of wind, Hiro has some wind powers but not all. He can't prete with the Pretear either. Goro is the new knight of Fire and Himeno is no longer Pretear. A girl named Eriko, who goes to Katai's highschool is now the new Pretear. She's 16. Seymour and Takako as you know, are married and their daughter, Bella, is now the Princess of Disaster. Tidus, Wakka, Auron, Rikku, Yuna, and Lulu are still lost and haven't gotten back to FFX yet. Okay, now that that's all cleared up let's continue with the story.)

"OH MY GOD! WAKKA! STOP GETTING US LOST!!!!! IT'S BEEN 17 YEARS SINCE WE FIRST GOT LOST AND WE STILL HAVE NOT FOUGHT SEYMOUR!! I MEAN WE'VE BEEN THROUGH KINGDOM HEARTS... where Tidus was just a little boy and that was slightly weird not to mention you were also there, WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THE HELLO KITTY TETRIS GAME... wich was also a bit disturbing, EVEN FFX-2 WHERE YUNA WAS WEIRD, I WAS WEIRD, AND THERE WAS NO TIDUS AND EVERY OTHER FF OTHER THAN X!! W'EVE BEEN THROUGH WITCH HUNTER ROBIN, TRIGUN, HEAT GUY J! WE'VE EVEN BEEN THROUGH BLUE'S CLUES A COUPLE TIMES!! I WANNA GO BACK TO FFX I'M SICK OF BEING LOST WAKKA AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!!" Katai could hear Rikku's approaching voice.

"Here they come again." Katai said quietly to Goro.

"I wonder if they ever stop screaming at each other." Goro said to Katai quietly.

"I don't think they do." Katai said to him.

"WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME?! I'M NOT THE ONE WHO'S LEADING US INTO ALL OF THESE PLACES THAT ARE NOT FFX!" Wakka protested.Lulu, Auron, Tidus, and Yuna walked away from the two bickering friends.

"Hey Tidus, Yuna, Lulu, Auron. Still lost?" Katai greeted.

"Looks that way." Tidus said. "I don't know how we could have possibly gotten this lost though."

"You've been lost since i was two!" Katai said laughing.

"Actually, since the year before you were born." Lulu corrected.

"That just makes it worse." Goro said, now laughing as well.

"Well, we hope you eventually become unlost." Katai said.

"Thanks for you condolence." Tidus said sarcastically before they left.

"Damn... they have some pretty bad navigational skills." Katai commented.

"I'll say." Goro agreed. A boy with black hair and blue eyes approached the two boys.

"Katai, Mom wants you." the boy said. It was Hiro.

"Did she say what she needed?" Katai asked.

"No, she just said 'Go get your brother', nothing else." Hiro told him.

"Very well." Katai said as he left.

"I'm the Princess of Disaster! I shouldn't have to go to school!" Bella protested.

"You don't wanna be a stupid Princess of Disaster, now, do you ?" Takako said sending her out the door. It was the fist day of school and this time it was tenth grade. She sighed. "Mom didn't got to school when she was the Princess of Disaster." she thought. "This brings my evilness down a couple notches." she sighed as she entered the school gates. She had just transferred to this school it was new to her. "This place.... is... HUGE! I could get lost in the courtyard alone!" she thought as she walked on.

"Katai!" a boy called about 15 feet away from him.

Katai started walking toward"Hey! Long time no see Kanjir-W-WOA!" he knocked into a girl and they both tumbled to the ground. "I'm sorry. I should have looked where I was going." Katai said helping the girl up.

"It's-" she started in a cold tone as she was brushing herself off but the looked up and met Katai's eyes. "-alright. I wasn't paying attention either." she finished in a soft, gentle tone. "Great, just perfect. I find myself going soft just because of an incredibly cute face. I'm supposed to be the Princess of Disaster, between school and my duties as Princess I don't have time for boys!" she thought, trying to put on a cold expression but failed.

"Are you new here?" Katai asked.

"Yes." she said answering his question. She was afraid to say more.

"Well see ya around!" Katai said as he completed the walk over to his friend who was now laughing at his clumsiness. "What's so funny?"

"You." his friend Kanjiro responded. "You've always been clumsy haven't you?"

Katai didn't respond, he merely just rolled his eyes.

"She was cute, ne?" Kanjiro commented.

"Yeah, she was." Katai said as he sighed.

"Looks like someone's in love!" Kanjiro said, now trying to annoy Katai.

"How can I be in love when I don't even know the girl?"

"You've seen her right?"

"What's that got to do with anything?"

"Everything."

"You're so shallow! Going for girls just because of their looks." he sighed. "She was beautiful though. I wish I knew her name."

"Look who's shallow now!"

"I'm not shallow! I just want to get to know her. Maybe I'll like her."

"Katai is shallow, Katai is shallow." Kanjiro said in a sing-song voice.

"Looks like somebody is still their annoying self." Katai commented as the bell rang. Everyone in the courtyard headed into the school and to their homerooms.

"What homeroom you in?" Kanjiro asked Katai as they walked.

"Four. What about you?"

"Four."

"Cool." They walked through the corridors of the school and finally came to homeroom four. They entered and took a seat. Other students entered, most of the girls greeting Katai flirtily.

"Hey, look who else is in our homeroom." Kanjiro said pointing over to the far corner of the room. He was referring to of course, the girl who Katai had knocked down earlier who is of course, Bella. She was sitting alone, just drawing on a notebook she had brought to school with her. "You should go talk to her." Kanjiro said.

"I think I will." Katai said, now standing. He walked over to the desk next to Bella's. "Is this seat taken?" he asked her.

"I don't believe it is." said Bella, looking up. Katai sat in the empty seat.

"I didn't get the chance to ask you your name earlier." he said to her.

"It's Bella, and you?" she said.

"I'm Katai." he told her.

"Nice to meet you." she said. She was now smiling. "Why am I being so nice?!?" she thought to herself. "Sure, he's really cute and just his presence makes you feel all warm inside, but, I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A NICE PERSON!"

"So where are you from?" Katai asked her.

"Spir---uh..." she started, then realized what she was saying so just stopped completely.

"Spira, never heard of it. Sounds interesting."

"It really is an interesting place."

"Is it in Japan?"

"No... it's in one of these foreign countries that nobody has ever heard about. The country's called Sinvillia"

"I see."

Kanjiro walked over, sly as a fox, poking his head in their conversation. "Hello!" he said once he reached his destination where Katai and Bella were sitting. Katai gave Kanjiro that, "you're pissing me off for an unknown reason" look. "I don't believe we have met before, my name is Kanjiro." he said to Bella with about as much charm as he could muster out.

"Hi, I'm Bella." she introduced herself. She could hear the little voice inside of her head, "WHY THE HELL AM I BEING SO DAMN NICE?!?!"

A girl with black hair and blue eyes approached. It was Eriko, the current Pretear. So far, in this scene we have, the Knight of Wind falling in love with the Princess of Disaster, let's continue.

"Hello." Eriko said as she sat in a seat close to where the other three were sitting.

"Why hello Eriko! You're looking very-" Kanjiro started but Eriko cut him off. She had known from past experiences what he was going to say.

"No, for the billionth time Kanjiro, I will not go out with you. I only see you as a friend." she stated. Kanjiro has had the hugest crush on Eriko since childhood. He had to have asked her out at least 50,000,000,000 times. Each time, he got nothing but rejection.

"Hey Eriko, this is Bella, Bella, Eriko." Katai introduced.

"Nice to meet you Bella." Eriko said smiling warmly.

"Same to you." Bella said, also smiling. She ignored her inner self, telling her to be evil. She had never had a friend before. She always dreamed of having someone to share secrets and talk of boys with. That never quite happened. Her cold heart drove everyone away. She was alone.

"So, where are you from?" Eriko asked.

"Already said it once, might as well say it again." Bella thought. "Spira, it's in Sinvillia, one of those countries nobody has ever heard of." she told Eriko.

"Sounds interesting." Eriko said. The bell rang and it was time for first period. They all started walking off. Eriko reading her schedule, not paying attention to where she was going, that's code for, she didn't see the desk in front of her. She fell over the desk but a pair of arms broke her fall. Who did the arms belong to?

"Thank you Kanjiro." Eriko said blushing.

"It was nothing." Kanjiro said, trying to be seductive. "Eriko, will you go out with me now?" he said, breaking the seductive tone.

"- -; No Kanjiro." Eriko said getting out of his arms.

Kanjiro put on a sad face as they went to class. Bella and Katai just laughed.

Sasame walked out of FM Awayuki. He was in deep thought as he walked. The postcards he recieved for his show reminded him of his own pain and just ampliphied it. He did a good job hiding his pain, covering it up, but he couldn't hide it from himself. It felt as one thousand daggers had stabbed him in the heart all at once. He wanted to explode. He kept all of his emotions bottled up. The cork on that bottle wanted to fly off but it was shoved in so tight it was stuck. He couldn't do anything. He just had to walk through it. The pain may never go away. He stopped in front of a house. It was blue and red colored. He walked up to the door and knocked. Himeno answered.

"Sasame! Come in!" Himeno said leading him in. "You know you don't have to knock you're welcome anytime."

"I'd feel rude just barging in." Sasame told her. The walked into the living room where Hayate was. He was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Hey Sasame have a seat." Hayate said. Sasame sat in the armchair. "So what's up?" Hayate asked.

"I need to talk." Sasame said in a serious tone.
