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 So there is steam power but is outdated.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 sixteen: Accursed one.

On the next day the group of teens is divided to train in doubles. Benji and Aki are in nowhere that can be seen. Julietta is training Tanaka energy by helping her to focus. And the others seniors are training the juniors. On another part of the shrine Benji and Aki are training. And she say:

A long time passed since you arrived and you still haven't regained your energy. You can't keep using the Yami. You know what can happen to you.

And Benji who is lying flat on his back looking up the sky full of bruises say:

I know. But I can't. I am eating more and I still can't produce energy enough to sustain my body with out drink fresh blood. I have to steal energy from the others and from the environment to keep alive.

And Aki say:

I don't know what he did but he did a good job. You are like a vampire now. And you need three doses by day to stay normal. Sachiko, Miki, Julietta, Jo and me are donating so you can stay feeding and the donor don't die. But we can't keep this up forever.

And he say:

I know. But more you push me more energy I spend and more I need to get.

And Aki sigh and say:

This is hard.

And she sit on a rock and light a cigarette. And say after drag:

If this continue for longer you might end like Tsuruko. Using only the Yami and depending of infinity energy crystals to live with our killing the others.

And he say:

Right now I would not mind one. Shit I am hungry.

And Aki sigh and say:

Geez! Already?

And he say:

Is near of lunch hour and you have pushing me like crazy.

And she say:

You got a point. Is better feed you before you decide to get someone else.

And she walk to him and stand her left wrist to him and he bite it. On the next day Tanaka knock on the door of Benji and the others room. And she get in saying:

Excuse me. There is anyone in here?

And she look in the room that is empty. And then from a gap in the ceiling Benji head pop down from it and say:

What is wrong Tanaka?

And she leap and let out a small scream surprised. And she recognize the person and say:

Benji you scared me!

And he say:

Sorry. But what you want?

And Tanaka say:

I am searching for Julietta. Have you seen her? She is nowhere in the shrine.

And Benji say:

I heard that she was going to take a walk. She will be back soon. Want to leave a message?

And she say:

Is nothing serious. I wanted to ask to her train me again. But I can leave it for later.

And Benji say:

Train by yourself too. It helps.

And she say:

Okay thanks.

And he say:

You are welcome.

And she look at him and say:

Why you are up there?

And Benji say:

I am searching for something.

And Tanaka say:

What a help?

And he say:

No I am fine.

And she say:

But why you are sweating?

And he say:

Is hot in here. If you get in here it will become a steam room.

And she say:

Okay.

And he say:

Thanks for the offer.

And she say:

No problem.

And she walk away and close the door. And he sigh and another voice say:

Is she gone?

And he say:

Yes Juli she is gone.

And Julietta say:

Good. Now bring your head back up here and finish up what we started.

And he say:

Okay.

And in there Julietta is naked over a sheet and they clothes are in a pile on a side. Later Benji dressed leap to the floor. And he say:

All clear.

And she say:

Okay.

And she jump on Benji arms and he hold her. And she say:

Now I feel better.

And he say:

Same here.

And she kiss him and say:

Now let me go help Hoshie.

And he put her down and she walk away.

On the next morning all the battle high is having breakfast and Madoka come in and say:

Guys we have problems.

And Aki look at her and say:

Problems?

And Madoka say:

We got some data from the marionettes and we found that the rangers are planning something big on Nara.

And Tanaka spit the rice that she was eating and say:

Nara?!

And Madoka say:

Yes. Nara the capital of the state of Nara. Is nearby. Why?

And Tanaka say:

I am from Nara! My family lives in there!

And Benji say:

Juli calm her. Madoka what else you know?

And the elder say:

Is something big. It don't have information about what. But we send the guardians there. And Sei asked for backup. And that is you and the others.

And Aki say:

So Benji is up to you.

And Benji say:

We will go. The juniors will stay here.

And Tanaka say:

I am going too!

And Julietta say:

It can be a trap Benji. You know that they might be after the juniors. If Isis scam then she know what they can do. And how precious acquisitions they can be.

And Benji nod and Aki say:

Is better we all go.

And Madoka say:

I have prepared the trucks. The frames are in there. Is the standard model truck. That means that have room for all of you sleep in there. Also have places for the vehicles as the cars and bikes. And all the equipment is there too.

And Aki say:

So Benji give the order.

And he nod and say:

Okay. Battle high pack it up! We leave in two hours!

And they all say:

Understood.

And all of then leave taking out Julietta and Tanaka. And the chestnut haired girl say:

What happened?

And Julietta say:

We are going to your hometown girl. And we will go there save the day.

And Tanaka smile and nod and they run to the rooms too.

End of the chapter sixteen:

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.

He pick a paper from his pocket and say:

All the organizations named on the story are fictional any resemblances with real ones are coincidence. And explanation about then will be given on the story.

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.

And he get serious and say:

For who might interest I have changed the disclaimer after I found that some characters and locations that was given to me by a former friend was not his original creation. They belong to a game called Dividead. That I took from him after beat him hard enough to dislocate his jaw. I played to see what of what he had given to me was a copy. I have made list that I will add on the end of this. As what happened today when I questioned him about that. It will be a small story telling what exactly happened. Once again I apologize for my error and my former friend actions.

He bow deeply 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.

After an intensive marathon of twelve hours playing the game called Dividead I have made a list of things that happen in the game and that my former friend gave to me and what I wrote. Here it is.

The school:

Copied material:

The name, the design, the buildings, location of the buildings on the school, tea ceremony club and the mystical gate.

Original material:

All the others clubs, events, students, history and origin of the school, the school symbol, the dorms names and the halls. As well the soldats and the battle high.

Students:

Copied material:

Miki and Sachiko Itsukino or Seino (in the game call then by the both names, I don't know why), Kimihito Satake, Haruka Hojo (the looks and part of the past), Aki Hyuga, Azusa (only the looks and the first name the rest is original), Nishizaki (the act and the looks), Nishida (the looks), Mayumi (the looks and function), I have found on the game the name Juichi but anything explaining. So is on the name. After all I asked to my grandfather that is Japanese and he told me that Juichi is a common name. So everything else on that character is original

Original material:

Battle high:

Benji Himura, Julietta Thorndike, Kumi Kawanaka, Midori Kusagano, Takako Ayase, Reiko (from the second dorm) Kenji and Sanae,

Soldats:

Rieko, Sano, all the soldats that are not named on the students.

Teachers:

All then are original. Taking out Mayumi and Aki.

Support staff:

The elders Itsukino. Madoka and Azuka are original. The company and history of the characters are original. Jo is also an original one.

On the story:

The all the story and events in there is original. I didn't use the story of that guy. Or the game story. Only the things that I named above as the copied material. Or the characters. But I have made changes on then during the story. And comparing to the game the actions of most of then are very different. With few exceptions as Sachiko and in a smaller rate Haruka. That was all that I could found that is from the game. The school grounds appearance, many characters names and a small rate of background, the uniform, and the gate.

The school event that had the band is original. It was based on a party that my friends and I was in with karaoke with anime songs.

I am sorry for this sad event. I will do my best to not let it happen again. As for my former friend he is now so scared of me that he can't even see me with out froze in fear. I think that is a suitable punishment for someone like him who gave me a story and characters saying that was his own and that I could use as my own. Even when I insisted to put his name in the story thanking him for it. But since he didn't wanted I did what he asked. Now I paid for it. As well him. One last thing I compared the characters that I have used with out know with the ones in the game. Most of then are very different on the personality and actions. Only sharing the name and the looks. Since all those characters that he gave that was from the game I have made then act like friends that I have, most of the characters actions and personalities are from those friends. Some of then got very close of the original ones from the game. As Sachiko and Miki. I have two friends that I have based on they personality for the character actions. My friend that I have placed as Sachiko is shy and old fashioned. But very cute and a good friend. And yes she is descendant of Japanese. And she loves Japanese green tea. For Miki is another female friend of mine. She is a tomboy since she is the only daughter of a family with many boys she tend to act like one. She is short tempered and a good fighter. Aki I based on an old teacher. I felt odd when I played the game seeing how much the two acted like the other. My teacher smoked and was a bit lazy but a good person to talk about the problems. Sadly she died in a car crash. Haruka is acting like my girlfriend. And she is not Japanese. She is half French by her mother family. But she born in Brazil. I got scared with the bath scene of the game. Because I have placed on the story one too. But that one happened with me and my girlfriend. I only changed the shower for the Japanese tub. It was a huge surprise to see that it have a similar scene on that game. Nishizaki is based on a guy from my old boarding school. He was the right arm of a guy that hated me. And I hated the guy. He was the inspiration for Juichi. I will not mention the names of then. But I placed what I felt toward then in the story. As enemies of my characters. The man that I based Juichi and I came to nearly kill each other many times. And I am serious. We fought with knifes, batons, empty hands and mainly anything. We hated each other. So I transferred that to Juichi. That man is like the description of Juichi taking out that he is not Japanese. And that comment on the first two chapters of rape attempts on the boarding school is real. Happened on my school. And that guy tried to rape my girlfriend when she went visit me in that hell. Because that school was the worse one that can happen. And the result was that we fought. And I almost killed him of so angry I was. As I placed as Kenji and Sanae story if Ciel that is my girlfriend name haven't asked to me stop I would have killed him. And then I would get arrested for it. It was her who stopped me from moving. And then many of my friends was needed to restrain me. As well many of the school workers. It took ten persons to restrain me so they could take him away to a medic. Of course that I got expelled because of that. But I didn't minded, she was safe and I was out of that hell of school. And my bonus was that he would not be able to talk normally for a very long time since his jaw was broken the two different places. I didn't get arrested for aggression because it had many witnesses that told that I was defending my girlfriend. So it changed to self-defense. But changing that subject. All the characters that are from the game only have the looks and the name the same. The personality and actions are from my personal friends.

Now what happened when I got the e-mail telling me of the similarities of the story to a game: (the names will be the one of the story. Julietta will show up. She is a real friend. And her name is Julietta.)

Benji wearing a white t-shirt and loose shorts is on his room and he is writing the chapter eight of crimson violets. On the computers screen appear on the MSN the sign that a new message have arrived. And he say:

Great a review. Must be from HaruNatsu again.

And he open his e-mail and read the contents. And read it carefully one more time he think:

It must be some kind of mistake. A game? I have to ask to Ian about this. After all he gave me the school and some characters.

And after answer the e-mail he change to a jeans pants and put on a black vest. He put on a black boots and walk out of the house. And a half hour later on Ian house, Benji knock on the door. Julietta wearing a tight t-shirt and small and very tight shorts open the door and say:

Hey Benji nice timing. I have rented a movie want to see?

And Benji say:

Hi Juli. But leave it for some other time. Is your cousin in here?

And she say:

If is Ian he is on his room. Why?

And Benji say:

Well I got this e-mail saying that the school and some characters of battle high are not original. And that they belong to a game. I am here to ask him if is truth that. And if is I will beat him very hard for do that.

And Julietta say:

Seen serious. You can get in jail for that.

And Benji say:

I know. But that if is true. Now excuse me.

And she say:

Wait a minute. That is your brother rock boots right?

And he say:

That is right. The ones that he uses to give more damage in the fights. Have metal reinforces and is made of hardened leather.

And she say:

You are serious about beat him?

And Benji say:

Dead serious. You know me. I don't lie about serious stuff.

And she say:

I know.

And he walk up a stairs to the second floor. And he enter on the other teen room and say:

Now Ian you and I will have a serious conversation.

And the other teen have light brown hair is wearing a black shirt and jeans pants. And say:

Sure is about what?

And Benji say:

I got an e-mail sometime ago. And have you heard of Dividead?

And the brown haired teen get pale. And Benji say:

So you have. Then have you given me that information for the school and the characters from it?

And Ian say very nervous:

No! I have never played that game!

And Benji say:

Thank you for confirming Ian. I have never said that was a game

And Ian say more nervous:

But I heard that was a game!

And Benji say:

You are lying. You should know better Ian. I know Julietta since I was a baby. She told me that you grip at your pants when you are lying. And you are doing it now.

And Ian say:

I am not lying.

And Benji hit Ian on the stomach and say:

Admit it Ian.

And the other lose the breath and Benji hit him again. And Benji say:

Tell me the truth Ian and I will be gentler. And I will not hit you on the face.

And Ian say:

I am not lying.

And Benji punch him again. And after few more punches the teen say:

I admit it!! I copied the school and the characters from the game!

And Benji let the teen fall on the ground and Benji say:

Why? When I asked for a name I was expecting an original name. As well original characters. So that is why you didn't want to have your name on the story for giving the idea of the school.

And the other teen nod. And Benji say:

What you have in your head?! SHIT?! You know that you did?! That is a fucking crime! For the love of god I can go to the jail for that! That is plagiarism! Illegal use so someone else idea! And to be honest Ian that is the worse thing that a writer can do to the other! Steal the other idea!

And Ian say:

But your idea was so cool. Even not involving the cast of Sakura Taisen it was cool. Only for what you planned. The organizations, the rivalry, the gods, the curses, everything. So I thought that the school and the characters of the game could help you. You said that you needed of names to give to the characters of everyone. Come on even Yuki liked of Sachiko name for the character of her.

And Benji say:

But it is from a game!

And Ian say:

No. Sachiko is a Japanese name. I only took from the game.

And Benji say:

As well she being a miko! Her story! Come on when I read about make Yuki and Sara twins I thought that was great to the story. Since those two are as close as sisters! Azusa too.

And Ian say:

That I got from Tenchi muyo. Is a girl name too.

And Benji close his hands on fists and Ian say:

Come on Benji! You said that it was great! That would fit the story well!

And Benji say:

I thought that was your original idea as you told me. I thought that you based the characters on our friends and on the tales that I told about the boarding school.

And Ian say:

Look I talked to your grandfather. And he told me that those was all Japanese names that could exist for good. I thought that would not be a problem.

And Benji say:

The names are not the bigger issue! That can even be forgiven because it is true! But the story! The school design it was all a copy! I should have noticed that it was unusual you have so many creative ideas. Be so careful with the details. That was not you! You said that the design of my house is look like with your house and they are different!

And Ian shudder in fear. And Benji say in a sad tone:

I can't believe in this.

And Ian say:

Come on Benji. I was trying to help you. I have read many of your previous stories. I wanted to help. Since any idea that I got was good enough I picked then.

And Benji say:

That is wrong Ian. That is like steal. A fanfiction is a way to show how much you liked of a story or make your own changes on it. Is a way to show respect. Is not official but still have ethics as to say that you don't own the characters of the story and say that is from a certain story and that belong to someone else. That is why it must have a disclaimer. You have read then?!

And Ian say:

They are a bunch of bullshit!

And Benji punch him again and the teen fall unconscious and he say:

They are a proof that the writer have honor and that he show the respect for the people who create the show or whatever is about he is making a fanfiction.

And Benji search around Ian CDs and say:

Now where he place the CD. On the official site say that is on CD.

And later have many CDs on the floor and he is looking on a shelf. And Ian get up and run to Benji that have his back turned and prepare a punch. Benji turn and take a punch on the face. Benji react and hit Ian with a punch and pick the teen head and force it downwards and hit him with an attack with the elbow on the jaw. And the teen fall unconscious again. And he hear claps and he hear Julietta say:

Winner Benji. Finish him!

And Benji look at Julietta. He have blood dripping from his eyebrow and he say:

This is not Mortal Kombat Juli. And I don't want go to the jail.

And she say:

I know I am just joking.

And Benji say sitting on the bed:

You know where he placed the Dividead CD?

And Julietta say:

He have picked on the internet. He have on the computer. Want a copy?

And he say:

Yeah. I have to know what he copied.

And she nod and turn on the computer and put a CD on the drive and begun to copy it. And she say:

Wait I will get you a band-aid and something to clean the blood on you.

And he nod and she walk away. She return fast and clean his face and say:

You got him pretty hard. Almost didn't seem that we used to make karate together.

And Benji say:

We might be on the same belt. And have similar strengths. But I have few things that you and he don't have.

And she say:

Like what?

And she put the band-aid over the cut and he say:

First since I can remember my father have been beating me so I have endurance to pain and larger stamina.

And she say:

And how you knew that he was attacking? And what is the others?

And Benji say:

I have real combat experience. That year on the boarding school. We fought in there for everything and for nothing. And fight with someone else that want hurt or kill you for real is a totally different thing of fight with someone training. The experience is different. And there is also the place with a high rate of attacks on the treason. So we got used to know when someone else is coming from behind.

And Julietta say:

Well experience and endurance have counted. And you are right. That make the difference.

And the copy is ready and Benji pick the CD and Julietta say:

As for him don't worry. I will make him say that he fall of the stairs.

And Benji say:

Thanks Juli.

And she say:

No thanks. I want a full date. That mean movie and dinner. And not a cheap date.

And he say:

Fine mercenary woman.

And she say:

I know.

And he say:

Is better take him to a hospital. I might have broke his jaw.

And she nod and he walk away. On the night Benji is on his room writing the list and the apology for the copy. And Julietta walk in wearing jeans pants and a t-shirt. And she say:

What you are writing? The new chapter of battle high or crimson violets, even maybe megami nightmare? If is one of then I want to read it.

And he say:

No. Is an apology and a list of what is taken from the game and what is original.

And she say:

I see. So …

And she move to the bed and begun to sit and Benji say:

Wait the bed I broken!

And she throw her weight on the bed that fall apart and she let out a surprised shriek and fall over the mattress. And she groan in pain and she say:

Why you didn't told me before?

And he say:

I did. You just was in the middle of the act.

And he help her up and she say:

What happened to the bed?

And he say:

A mix of termites and my younger cousins.

And she say:

Oh I see. So it was not the night action with Ciel?

And Benji say:

She is on an exchange project in Paris living with her aunt for seven months. We haven't do anything.

And Julietta say:

Well I have to ask. Now give me some space on the take chair.

And they share the rather small chair. And she red the text an say:

A resume story of what happened today?

And Benji say:

Yeah. Just to show what happened.

And she say:

Well what happened today was a nice thing to put on the story.

(Hi guys, this is Julietta. Benji have left to answer the phone. And by his tone is his girlfriend. So I will be writing this only to pest him. Maybe I even post it like this :) it will be funny. Now is he logged in? Yes! He is. This will be good.)

The phone rings and Benji go answer it. And Julietta begun to write. And after a quick chat while she have uploaded the story. And Benji say:

What you are doing?

And he see the screen of the document manager and say:

What you are uploading?!

And she say teasing:

What is happening now.

And he say:

Stop!

And they fight in front of the computer. And after few time of fight she say:

So let put like this. It will be funny.

And he say:

Juli this is a serious thing.

And she say:

But can be a bit funny.

And he sigh and they sit on the chair. And Benji say:

So how is Ian?

And she say:

He only dislocated the jaw. But for a long time he can't chew.

And Benji say:

Good.

And she smile and she say:

So let's end and post this.

And he nod and he type:

Well now is the farewell.

And Julietta type:

Bye guys! Is nice to meet you all! ;) With some luck. I convince him to do this again if have a good response of the audience.

And Benji say and Julietta type:

We have only two confirmed readers Juli.

And she type and say:

So what? By the way we are going out tomorrow. Plan well and dress fine.

And he sigh and she type his reaction. And she move to update the story.
