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.

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 So there is steam power but is outdated.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 he say:

So you are beginning to get used to this now?

And she nod and say:

Is not so hard after you get used to it

And Benji say:

Is true. You are doing well. On this rate I will let you do the credits alone.

And she blush more and say:

I don't want to the credits alone!

And he say:

Fine. Then we do it. Now say it.

And she nod and she say:

I hope that everyone enjoy the story.

He give her a friendly slap on the shoulder and say:

Good.

And he bow to the audience and say:

Please enjoy the story.

And they walk away.

Chapter twelve: Time to know.

And Benji hold Aki arms from behind and he is holding her head by the hair with one hand and he is forcing her head down the water and keeping her in there. Aki is squirming trying to get out of his grip. But he is pressing his body over hers and he keep holding her. And Benji slam her face on the pond bottom with out take her head out of the water many and many times.. The clear water get tainted in red . Aki body convulse splashing water around. Benji keep her like that. And her body stop moving and go limp. He slam her head on the stone bottom one last time and he move out the pond and he fall fainted on the dry land. Julietta run to him and pull him out and turn him face up. And she say:

Kimihito take Aki out of the pond!

And he obey and drag her out. Her forehead is bleeding from a large cut and Kimihito toss her face up on the ground and step over her stomach and she begun to throw up water. And after throw it all. She sit and say:

Just to confirm he won?

And Julietta say:

Yes. He killed you.

And Aki say:

I see. That with out use any energy. I underestimated him for good.

And Orihime say:

Why you say that?! He almost killed you!

And Aki say:

I was going to do the same. But he was really smart.

And Maria say:

Smart? He runned away.

And Aki say:

He only took me to a place where he would have the advantage. Or the woods.

And Maria say:

I understand. He pretended to run to make you follow and then attacked you.

And Aki nod and say:

He sure got me on surprise.

And she touch her forehead and say:

Ouch! I don't get a beating this hard have many years.

And Kumi say:

Let me heal you.

And Aki say:

Heal him first. I broke his arms with the kick, some ribs, his ankle and his neck bones are cracked. He need more than me.

And Kumi nod and begun to heal him. And Reni say:

Why you was fighting him?

And Aki say:

Just for spar. Well the train is over for today. Rest up.

And they nod and walk away. And Julietta, Aki and Kumi stay in there with Benji. And Aki say:

You noticed too. Haven't you Julietta?

And the red head nod and Aki say:

He could have used his energy but he couldn't. His energy is locked and he can't use it anymore. So I fought him to see if he was still able to lead the battle high. Because you know that my post is only decorative.

And the red head nod. And Aki say:

Something happened on the trial. It might take time to him regain the ability to use the energy.

And Kumi say:

I finished with him. Not let me heal you.

And Aki nod and the girl heal her. And Aki say:

And you Kumi don't talk about this to anyone.

And the girl nod. Later Benji wake up on his room and he see Julietta and he say:

What happened Juli?

And Julietta say:

You killed Aki. Well she is alive. But you won. You drowned her as well cracked her skull open.

And Benji say:

I remember that.

And Julietta say:

You should have told me about that Benji.

And he say:

I didn't want to worry you. Besides is only temporary.

And she say:

In any case. I am your best friend, your sister, partner and occasionally your lover. You have to tell me.

And he say:

On the next time. But I am hungry.

And Julietta say:

I will fix you something.

And she give him a quick kiss and say:

Stay put.

And she leave. And one minute after Julietta leave Aki walk in and sit on the chair and say:

So kid what happened on that trial?

And Benji say:

I don't want to talk.

And Aki say:

You beated my by luck. You managed to stun me long enough to immobilize me in a way that I could not use my strength. But with a enemy that use energy externally you would not be able to win. I don't care what happened. But only remember if you like this will prejudice the battle high I will be forced to remove you.

And he nod. And she say:

Get well soon.

And she kiss him and leave. And Benji think:

If anyone else come in this room and kiss me I swear that I will scream!

And Madoka walk in and sit on the chair near the bed and he say:

What?

And she say in a disappointed voice:

You really got to get like this right on this time. I wanted to give you all a tour over the factory tomorrow. As well give you and the others the new models.

And Benji say:

I only need to rest for sometime. By the morning I will be fine. But is sure okay show the newbie's the factory and the weapons?

And she say:

Mother said that is all right. And you know her. She can read partially people destiny. And she know that all of then will be valorous members of the battle high. And the guardians. By the way we repaired your frame after that gruesome battle against Juichi demon frame. It took one year! The other frame for Julietta is already repaired.

And Benji say:

I see.

And Madoka say:

We also made the upgrades. But you will see then by the morning.

And he nod and she walk away. On the next day all the battle high are in the entry wearing casual clothes. And Ogami say:

Sempai you are sure that you are okay?

And Benji say:

Perfectly fine.

And Madoka come wearing a black office suit and she say:

Is everyone in here? Where is Aki?

And Julietta say:

She is coming.

And the elder woman nod. And Miki say:

Why you are taking us to tour in our factory? Sachiko, Benji, Julietta, Kumi, Jo, Aki, Lyta and I already know the factory. And to be honest we know it well enough to go in anywhere we want.

And Madoka say putting on simple earrings:

Because the others don't know. Besides Miki you know that I have few things to talk with Aki and Benji. And it would be better that they was there to see what I am talking.

And Tanaka poke Julietta and say:

What factory she mean?

And Julietta say:

The Seino Corporation. Madoka own the company. Is from the family.

And Tanaka say shocked:

The Seino Corporation! That Seino corporation that builded some of the most amazing games and cars?!
Everyone look at the chestnut haired girl and Julietta say:

That one.

And Tanaka say:

But her last name is not Seino!

And Madoka say:

My maiden name was Seino Madoka. Itsukino is my deceased husband name. But I am still the president of the Seino Corporation. Sachiko and Miki are the heirs of the company. Benji and Julietta are stock holders of the company.

And Sumire say:

How they hold stocks in such big company?

And Madoka say:

Sho they guardian used to have twenty percent of the stocks. He gave to then after he died. And both of then have ten percent of the stocks. Miki and Sachiko both of then have two percent. Is only a starter. Kumi and Lyta have each one of then one percent that Benji gave to then.

And Orihime say:

So they are rich?!

And she point to Benji and Julietta and Madoka say:

Yes. That not counting the huge amount of money that they got from Sho legacy. Only by the stocks they won by year two million dollars. That taking out the taxes and the investments that we made with the money. That is what they won by year. The total goes to fife millions.

And Orihime say:

And who administrate that?

And Madoka say:

I do. Sometimes I ask then if they want do something else. But I mainly take care of the stocks and deposit the money in separated accounts for then.

And Benji say:

Aki is taking too long.

And Sumire look at him and say:

But then why he don't have expensive cars, huge houses and better clothes?

And Benji say:

We don't like that. I am a quite simple guy. Julietta is a simple gal. We only take what we need. And every once and while we take more cash for do something else.

And Aki walk to the in her normal clothes. And Aki say:

We can go.

And they move away. Two hours later in the Seino Company building in the center of a large factory compound the battle high is on a meeting room and Madoka is there too with Aki. And Sumire say:

This place is huge. It beat by far my family factory by the compound size.

And Madoka say:

But in the size of branches and total size we are the same. We only centralize. You must know that the Kanzaki and the Seino are friendly rivals. Our competition help both of us create better products and to keep the market filled with products of good quality and in large amounts.

And Sumire nod. And Madoka say:

And both of us have contract with the government. We build for then many products. Since military trucks to long ranged weapons.

And they are left chatting. Benji, Aki and Madoka leave the room and they are in Madoka room. And Madoka say:

Well this group sure have lots of potential. Is the first time that a group like that is formed since the kouma wars eighty years ago.

And Aki say:

You mean the hanagumi? Or us from the battle high?

And Madoka say:

So you know. Those recruits are from Tokyo defense force.

And Aki nod and say:

Yes. I have my homework. The direct successors of the original hanagumi. They are sponsored by the government and the Kanzaki heavy industries. As the guardians and the bathe high are sponsored by the Seino Corporation. And the supreme council.

And Madoka say:

That is right. Is the first time in the history that the two groups are joined.

And Aki say:

You don't trust in the battle high?

And Madoka say:

I trust in then. I have made few questions here and there and I found that the commander of the hanagumi have sent then to the Kabinoyama to train they skills. The hanagumi still depends on the koubus. Of course there was upgrades since the original model. But they lack of the power to face combat with out an armor frame. And the koubus lack of the mobility and functionality of our frames. But the government trust in the koubus. Since we never used the frames in open like then. And they conversion of the pilot energy to power up the armors are superior.

And Aki say:

But we overcome that easily by the infinity crystals. As well with pilots with high ability.

And Madoka say:

True. But the frames are harder to control than the koubus. But that is not the case. There is a possibility that some of the hanagumi might join the guardians after the graduation. If they do they will be trained.

And Benji say:

What is happening? You are hiding something.

And Madoka say:

Well taking out Juichi and the soldats the elder council of Tokyo and the high council fear another mass demon war. Different of all that we have faced. It might be needed the combined power of all the fighting forces in Japan to defeat it.

And Benji say:

The hanagumi is stationary force. They only act on Tokyo. As the guardians deal with all the Japan. There is too much difference.

And Madoka say:

I said that might. But you are right. But that is only a possibility. So far the hanagumi is member of the battle high. And as you and the others they are a stationary force in Kabinoyama. And you know that if Kabinoyama fall what will happen.

And Benji nod. And Madoka say:

But changing the subject. Is a know fact that you rescued Jo from that bad mission sometime ago. And Sei is happy. She and the others will come pick her soon.

And Benji say:

What went wrong?

And Madoka say:

I don't know. But so far is nothing important. I will talk with Aki. I will ask to Chizuru escort you, Julietta, Kimihito and the others to the depot. In there you pick what you need. And don't be shy.

And he nod and say:

I need a sword. And a good one. My lunar blade is broken. My assassin sword it will be in the repairs for indeterminate time.

And she say:

I will order one. It will be delivered on the end of the week.

And he nod and Madoka pick up a telephone and say:

Chizuru meet Benji on the meeting room seven.

And on the other side a female say:

Hai!

And Madoka say putting the phone down:

Go meet her.

And he nod and walk away. Later on the meeting room a brunet with long hair wearing a simple cut secretary dress meet then and she say to Benji:

Is good to see you again. Please follow me.

And he nod and the large group follow then. And Ayase say:

Where we are going?

And Chizuru say:

Special depot seven.

And Julietta smile and say:

Yeah! I can get a new one!

And Benji say:

Already busted the old one?

And Julietta say:

No. I only did few modifications and I need more parts. A scope would be very good.

And Ayase say:

What have in the depot seven?

And Jo say in a calm tone:

Weapons.

And Ayase say:

Weapons?!

And Chizuru say:

The most advanced and powerful portable weapons that we made. We have to provide the battle high with the best.

And Ayase say:

What the hell they do with weapons?! We are students!

And Benji say:

That is not your business.

And Maria say:

But what we do with weapons?

And Kimihito say:

I guess that is time to brief you guys. The battle high don't only deal with soldats and the problems in the school. We kill the demons who try to invade the school. And for that we need weapons.

And Sakura say:

But why demons try to invade the school?

And Julietta say:

The school is right over what is called a "gate". That gate connect to a world of the spirits know as gods. The gods of the Japanese mythology. Those demons want to summon a god. The summoned god have to serve the person who summoned him. So whoever summon a god control infinite powers. The battle high guard that gate and keep it close. This is the true duty of the battle high.

And Orihime say:

And we voluntaried to that?!

And Benji say:

We do all the other things that we said. But the original purpose of the battle high is that.

And Reni say:

Let me guess the soldats want to open the gate?

And Benji say:

That is right. But to do it is needed many preparations. Rituals, sacrifices, magic and more things that I will not say.

And Iris say:

But then why the soldats is recruiting?

And Benji say:

Two reasons. First one have one army that can destroy us.

And Ogami say:

And the second?

And Benji say:

Sacrifice then to open the gate.

All the new students stop in shock and Benji say:

But we will not let it happen.

And Julietta say:

That is right.

And the group walk to the depot. And Chizuru open the door and turn on the lights. Many weapons racks are show and Julietta say:

Merry Christmas. Santa Claus arrived earlier this year.

And Benji say:

Okay. Attention everyone can pick what you want. Taking out Ayase who is not from the group. And Lyta that is too young for it.

And Ayase say:

You can't order then to do that?! Is wrong we are students!

And Julietta toss to Benji a large black cloth bag and say:

That will do for the beginning.

And she walk in the depot and around the racks. And Benji say:

Sorry to inform you Ayase but the battle high have been receiving weapons have many years. As well the soldats. Otherwise why we would have some many weapons on the school campus. Now make some company to Lyta and wait here.

And Benji move on the rack and Ayase say:

But this is wrong!

And Chizuru say:

They have a hard mission miss.

And the hanagumi is also looking around the racks. And Benji stop on an area reserved to pistols and pick two metal blue handguns. He pick a gun belt for those. He pick few more handguns and see Maria looking at some revolvers. And he say:

Take your time. All then are good and very powerful. Since you already use a revolver it must not be hard pick one.

And Maria say:

That is right….

And she look at him and say:

How you know that?!

And Benji say:

When you first arrived your clothes have the faint scent of burned gunpowder. It was not a hard guess. And your hands also show that you use it. Is not very hard to recognize if you know where and what to look.

And she say:

And you use what?

And he say:

Anything. I have a good aim so I pick something that can give a good damage and with lots of ammo.

And Maria say:

I use an Enfield MK1 star revolver.

And Benji say:

Is quite old but still very effective. We have a modified version of that around here.

And she say:

Really?

And Benji say:

Yeah. Most of us use modified weapons. Julietta by herself is modifying an anti-tank heavy rifle. She got more firepower, better aim, less recoil and continuous shots.

And Maria say:

Is weird to think that the government let civilians have weapons like that.

And Benji say:

We are not so different from you.

And she say:

What you mean?

And Benji say:

We work for the government. But unlike you we have full authority to overcome the government units as the police and military forces.

And Maria say:

I understand. So you are on the military?

And Benji say:

No. We are more like agency that is above that. We deal with things that normal people can't. Because that is given to us more benefits. As the right to use, carry and transport weapons.

And Maria nod and he give her the revolver. Later Benji and the rest are on the melee weapons racks. And Benji say:

Where is the monofilament vibratory knifes?

And Chizuru say:

Area three.

And Benji say:

Thanks.

And he move to the designed area and he put many knifes from different sizes on the bag. Short swords too. And way later on the meeting room they sit and Julietta say:

This feel good. Almost like come back after a long day shopping.

And Benji nod. And Ayase say:

I still can't believe in you guys. Picking weapons like that.

And Chizuru say:

I have sended the clothes to the shrine. For all of you. Lots of it. As well ammo for the guns.

And Benji nod. And Ayase say:

Clothes?

And Julietta say:

Armored clothes.

And Chizuru walk away. Benji but a gun belt on the large table. Jo do the same. But her guns are silver and black. Julietta is polishing a heavy rifle. And Ayase say:

I can't believe that even Maria-san have picked a gun.

And Maria say putting the gun on the table taking out from a holster on her left side under her arm:

What? Is a good one. More precise than the others.

And Tanaka say:

But I couldn't pick then. Weapons are to kill. I can think of myself using one.

And Kumi nod and Benji say:

That is good.

He is now loading a magazine. And Julietta say:

That is our job. You can rest assured that Benji and the rest of the seniors do the killing.

And Tanaka stay quiet surprised with her friend attitude. And Benji say:

Is to save people that we kill. Is to protect people that don't even believe in demons. For that reason we kill demons and guard the gate.

Benji load the magazine and the gun is ready. He put it on the holster after put the safety on. And Chizuru walk in pushing a small cart with drinks and snacks. And she say:

Here it is.

And they nod and pick up what they want. And they are drinking and chatting. When a alarm goes off.

End of the chapter twelve:

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.

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.
