Hi this is Benji Himura. I am now starting a new Sakura Taisen/Wars fanfic. This is an altered dimension story. I don't own Sakura Taisen or any of the characters. I also don't own the characters of the game named Dividead. The personalities and actions of the characters are changed. As well events and names of the school. All the others characters belong to me. Dividead belong to C's ware. Some anime or manga characters might show up in the story I also don't own then. I own Benji Himura and others characters that will show up in the story. It might be violence and sex in the story so if you are underage of seventeen are warned the content might be too improper to your age. Read by your own will and risk. In anyway enjoy the story.

Signed: Benji Himura.

Lights go on and a stage show up and red curtains rises. A tall man with long black hair tied on the base of his head, wearing dark blue pants, vest and shirt walk in and say:

Hi everyone I am Benji Himura the writer and character of this story. This is my new Sakura Taisen/wars fic. My previous works are perfect blue eyes, young blood and my most recent one Red sword, Black gun. This last one is a joint fic of Maria Tachibana and me. We signed it as Seiryu and Kuassari. I am also writing violet blossoms. I will only name my Sakura Taisen/wars fics.

He make a pause and say:

Let me give you all a brief explanation of this story. It will happen away from Teito or Tokyo. It will be on a school on the interior of the state of Kyoto but far from the capital. It a private boarding school on the middle of nowhere. The closer city or village is away four hours in a car. Walking take about ten hours to make it. So you begun at seven in the morning and arrive on the village at fife in the afternoon that not stopping for nothing. The school grounds are very large. More details on the story. Many of my own characters will be on the story. If is not from any anime is mine.

He make a pause and say:

Now the more important detail it all happens in 2002. So there is steam power but is outdated. And think on the future of Sakura Taisen/wars series but with out the kouma wars. All the hanagumi will be there. Even Ogami. As for then they was the theater troupe but they have closed the theater for make large repairs on the building. The hanagumi have the older ones eighteen years. They all will act in the most similar way as they do plus few changes for the story sake.

And he stop and a short girl with long dark brown hair wearing the school uniform walk in and Benji say:

And attention everyone this is Tanaka Hoshie. She is a character that belongs to HaruNatsu. I have her permission to use her. And she agreed to be part of the story.

And Tanaka bow shyly and say:

Hi everyone. I am going to be around the story. I hope that you all enjoy it.

And she straight up and Benji say:

See it was not so hard.

And she blush and run out the stage and he say:

Well I guess that she is not ready yet for the credits. And just to remind everyone. I don't own Sakura Taisen or the characters. I own all the others characters taking out Tanaka. More details about her on the story.

And he bow to the audience and say:

Please enjoy the story.

And he walk away.

Chapter seven: On the road.

Passed two more days Benji was sitting on the office sitting careless on a chair and Aki is not there. Julietta walk in with Tanaka. And Benji say:

You two got pretty close in the last couple of days.

And Julietta smile. Tanaka is holding on Julietta sleeve and Julietta say:

Go on Hoshie tell him.

And she let it go and take a step closer to him and stop. She is holding her hands in front of her legs holding on the skirt and looking downwards. And Benji look at the duo and Julietta have a broad smile on her face. And Julietta say:

Speak up Hoshie. You come all the way here for it.

And the chestnut haired girl nod and open her mouth to talk. And she say in a determinated tone:

Sempai I want to join the battle high!

Benji fall from the chair surprised. The two girls stare him in shock. Benji get up and put the chair up. And he say in a relieved tone:

Thank god it is that! For one second I thought that you was going to make a love confessions.

And Julietta say:

Hey! Don't talk like if that was a bad thing!

And Benji and Julietta begun to argue. Tanaka is blushing madly because of his comment. And she say:

Sempai I want to join the battle high!

And Benji is choking Julietta who is pulling his ponytail. And Benji say:

Okay you are in. now wait outside while I choke her.

And Tanaka leave the room and hear the sound of the fight on the room. Few minutes later Benji and Julietta are sited on the floor with the back touching on the other back for support. Julietta head is on Benji right shoulder and his head in on her right shoulder. They legs are stretched on the floor and Julietta say:

Why you got so shocked with her saying that wanted to join us? Is not like you get so altered when someone join.

And Benji say:

By her actions I thought that she was going to confess that she was in love for me Juli. And by your face too.

And she say:

Well I can't blain you. I know that you have this aura that attract girls. I know that it never lacked company for you on your bed. After all we grew up together.

And Benji say:

I am not so bad.

And she say:

You are worse. We have only nineteen and I already lost the count of how many girls you have banged. And all then for lust.

And he say:

It was twenty and two. I am not counting Haruka, the Yuki sisters and that cute blond priestess of Hokkaido.

And she say:

You are counting that purple haired woman that saved our lived a couple of months before we met Kumi?

And he say:

You mean the mansion mistress?

And she nod and he say:

No. That one was not lust. That one was because she did with me to keep me alive bringing up the primal instincts of the man. Stay alive.

And Julietta say:

And spread your seed on the females.

And Benji say:

That too. So it are twenty seven.

And she say:

Counting me?

And he say:

No. You are not on that list.

And she say:

Why?

And Benji say:

We was drunk and under a spell. So I am not considering that.

And she say:

You are mean. It was my first time.

And Benji say:

Mine too. But come on Juli is a bit hard to me accept that my first time was with a girl that is like a sister to me.

And she say:

Me too. I wanted something more romantic. Not a spell and three bottles of sake. And I wanted to have my first time with someone special. And remember of it!

And they sigh. And Benji say:

Why the subject become my sexual life and your sexual life?

And Julietta say:

You are right we are moving out of the subject. So can we add Hoshie on the trip?

And Benji say:

Talk to Aki. She is organizing it. We are in twenty with Kumi. With Tanaka will be twenty one. If she will go she have to prepare the trip is on two days.

And Julietta say:

I will talk to her. I think that is not good leaving her here alone. Those guys friends might want to get revenge on her.

And Benji say:

I guess that we have been slacking off with the gangs of the school with the war with the soldats.

And Julietta say:

A bit. But that is also the job of the student body.

And Benji say:

What are the last status of the school division?

And Julietta say:

On the soldats have about forty one percent of the school students. That mean two hundred and eight seven students. That all the members. The leaders are ten percent of that. Or twenty seven students. That including Juichi and Haruka. And the battle high have fifty eight percent of the students. That is four hundred and six students. The leaders are six percent of that or twenty four students. The active members are twenty percent of the remaining students that is three hundred and eight two students. Or only seventy seven students. Not including the leaders. Of passive members we have eighty percent of three hundred and eight two that is three hundred and fife students. So of active members we have one hundred and one members. As the soldats have two hundred and eighty seven. Or more than two students for one, on they side. On the neutral students have about one percent of students. Or the guys that I beated when saving Hoshie few days ago. Three more get some other guys. That by the uniform are from the public school on Sawamura.

And Benji say:

As usual you amaze me with that ease to make counts like that.

And she say:

Well I have to be good in something else than fight. But in a open battle as the old infantry battles we would have good chances against then. They have about eight fife more students if was fight two of then for one of us. But that are the weaker guys on the school. Or the expendable ones. They are about half of the soldats numbers. So with the fact of your active members are actually very skilled we have an advantage. They have about fifty truly skilled members. We have one hundred and one truly skilled members.

And Benji say:

That is a bit comforting to hear.

And she say:

So what about we go get something to eat. All that fight have made me hungry.

And Benji say:

Me too. I buy you a hot dog.

And she not and they get up. Two days later early in the morning on the parking lot everyone is on there on casual clothes and Aki do the head count and she say:

Twenty. You are all in here. So divide the groups to go on Julietta, Kimihito and my car.

And Ogami raise his hand and say:

Miss Aki we can use my car too. So we won't be squeezed up on three cars. So we can go comfortably on fife people on four cars.

And Aki say:

Sound good. Load up the cars. Since is like that Benji can go alone with his bike.

And Benji say:

No problem for me.

And Kimihito say:

Shuji will go with me.

And a average height teen with short black hair say:

No problem for me.

And Benji say:

Look let's spilt it up who want to go with someone go next to the person. Kimihito, Julietta, Ogami and Aki you four take few distance from the other to not confuse the groups.

And they nod and move closer of the respectives cars. And Kumi, Tanaka, Miki and Sachiko move to Julietta. And Benji say:

Julietta group closed.

And Shuji, Azusa and Midori walk to Kimihito. Azusa is a short girl with long rusty red hair and light green eyes. And Benji say:

It need one more to Kimihito group.

And he see that all the hanagumi is around Ogami. Taking out Maria who is with Aki. And Benji say:

Kohran, Kanna go to the Aki group. Iris you go with Kimihito.

And the trio nod and Benji say:

Aki and Kimihito group are closed. So we can go.

And Aki say:

That is good. Now we can go. All the cars have cold drinks and some snacks?

And the drivers nod. And Aki say:

All of you have something to help to pass the time?

And everyone nod. And Aki say:

Good. Everyone have a cell phone?

And they nod and Aki say:

Okay. Load up with your baggage your respective car. Benji your bags will go on my car.

And he nod and they load. Benji ride on his bike and everyone else get on the cars. Aki car is a large Mitsubishi SUV painted in a living red color. And Aki say:

Okay Benji you lead the convoy.

And Benji nod and put on a metal blue helmet and start the bike and they drive away. And Benji press a small switch on the helmet and he say:

Yo Kimihito put some music.

And on the car Benji voice is heard. Kimihito pick up a radio and say:

Sure. What you want to hear?

And Julietta pick one and say:

Put some rock.

And Aki say:

Put some pop.

And Kimihito say:

So Benji pop or rock?

And Benji say:

Put that mixed CD that I borrowed to you.

And Kimihito pick a CD on the glove compartment and say:

That anime music mix among some Americans music's.

And Benji say:

That one.

And Ayase say to Aki:

Why you all have radios?

And Aki say:

We are a convey. We have to trade information.

And Maria say:

Make sense. But that is not a system that one sound play in all the cars?

And Aki say:

No. If I want we can hear something else. Benji only is asking because he don't have a radio on the bike. And he can't use a CD player while piloting.

And Kimihito put it on and it begun to play the opening theme of Excel saga. Three hours later on a small gasoline station the group have stopped and Benji is stretching as well Julietta and all the others. And Aki say:

Twenty minutes break. Who need to go to the toilet go now. Who want to buy something on the convenience store go now. But be back here in twenty minutes.

And they nod. Benji and the drivers are putting gasoline on the vehicles. And Julietta say:

It have been a while since we traveled like this isn't it Benji?

And he nod and say:

Yeah. You used to have your bike too.

And she nod. And Tanaka say:

What happened to your bike Julietta?

And she say:

An accident. What remained from it is now on Benji bike as replacement parts. Of course that we also did many upgrades on his bike.

And later the group is on the cars and Aki say:

Okay so let's move again.

And they drive away. On the noon they stop on a restaurant and are eating and chatting. And Azusa say:

So Himura what you plan to do on this trip?

And Benji say:

The usual. Train. And enjoy a bit my free time. Since we are going to the moon shrine I can go visit a old friend.

And Benji and Julietta face got a bit darker and Miki say:

I can't believe that we are going home so soon Sachiko. It have only two months of classes and we will stay one month back in home!

And the elder Itsukino smile and say:

I know. I want to see mother and everyone else again.

And Ayase say:

What she mean by going home?

And Aki say:

They live on the shrine. The Itsukino family is the family that keep the shrine.

And Miki say:

That is right. And Benji and Julietta are also old friends of us, since before the school days.

And a TV set over the balcony is showing a criminal assault in a live feed. And Benji look at it and he see a figure that call his attention and he say:

Aki I have to go! I meet you guys on later on the road.

And Aki say:

Hey what is wrong?

And Julietta noticed the news too and say:

Hurry up!

And Benji pick the helmet and run out the restaurant and get in the bike and leave letting up a trail of smoke and a black tire mark on the asphalt. And Aki say:

What is wrong Julietta?

And she say:

A old friend is in serious trouble.

And she is looking at the news and is showing a woman with short silver hair wearing a brown leather jacket that cover her until her thighs. And show the location of the assault. And Aki say:

That girl?

And Julietta nod and Aki say:

That is not very far. But he will not get in there in time.

And Julietta say:

He will. With that changes on the bike he will get in there in ten minutes.

And Aki say:

But it take one hour to get in Kowa. That going on one hundred kilometers by hour.

And Julietta say:

That bike can get on the top speed of 426 kilometers per hour. That not using the nitros. Only activating the mechanical changes.

And everyone look at her. On the road Benji is speeding up. The arrow of the speed indicator is over three hundred and fifty. He get in the city and he dodge the traffic. He hear the police sirens and follow it. On a bridge the silver haired woman is surrounded by the police that is pointing weapons for her. Around her have many fallen men's wearing black suits. And she is with her jacket open. And one police man say thru a speaker:

Surrender now you are surrounded and you can't escape!

And she look around and see that she is trapped. The space between her and the police is about one hundred meters. And she run. And the police begun to shoot. And from behind the police line a motorcycle appear and break the line. The pilot drive in the direction of the girl and she stand a hand to him. He get it and she leap to the bike with his help. That keeping the speed. She hold on his waist and he speed up and break the line by the other side. He make a turn and disappear from the sight. Too shocked to react the police watch then go. Meanwhile on the restaurant Julietta say relieved:

He got there in time.

And Ayase say:

He helped a criminal!

And Julietta say:

She is not a criminal she is a bounty hunter.

And Aki say:

Never mind that. We are going now. We are moving on.

And Ayase say:

Sensei!

And Aki say:

Later.

And they go away and move to the cars and leave. Later back on the road Benji drive fast to the restaurant knowing that they are not there anymore. Hours later on a city named Tsukiakari Aki and the others are waiting on a parking lot near of a stair way. And Kimihito say:

Benji is taking too long. Let's move to the shrine and wait there.

And Aki say:

Let's wait here for ten minutes. It he don't get in here we go up the stairs to the shrine.

And the group nod. And few minutes later a bike park near then. And it have two riders. And the engine stop and Julietta say:

You took too long.

And Benji say taking out the helmet:

I have to get distance from the cops earlier today. So I lost sometime.

And she look at the silver haired girl and say:

Have been a long time Jo.

And the silver haired nod and get out the bike. Benji leave the bike too. And Aki say:

So can we get to the shrine?

And Jo hold Benji by the collar of the shirt and kiss him for the shock of everyone. Including him. And she broke the kiss and say:

That is to pay for the rescue.

And all the girls are blushing. And Aki say:

Let's forgot that we saw this and let's go to the shrine.

And everyone nod and they all go up with the bags.

End of the chapter seven:

Benji walk to the stage and say:

I hope that you guys have enjoyed the story. It was fun to write.

And he make a pause and say:

All the characters that is not from the Sakura Taisen is mine. Taking out Tanaka Hoshie. The cities of Sawamura, Tsukiakari and Kowa are fictional. Any semblances with real Japaneses cites by name or location are coincidence. Taking out the states and the capitals all the others cites are fictional. As well locations as shrines, river, mountains and others locations. Tsukiakari means moonlight. Kowa means peace.

And he pause and say:

And thank you very much HaruNatsu for reviewing the story. I hope that you and anyone else that is reading this have enjoyed the story.

He bow to the audience and say:

Please read and review. Any opinion is valid. Even a bad one.

And he bow to the audience and walk away. The curtains fall and the lights goes out.
