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 So there is steam power but is outdated.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 straitening up and grabbing Benji collar:

How dare you make me meet with Tsubasa?! And make her ask to me call to Chisa and Fuu?!

And he say:

Simple. Only doing it.

And she shake him and say:

Why you placed me on that bad situation?! You don't have a heart?!

And he say:

Hey I am dead already remember. And case you haven't noticed my girlfriend and I are now deadly enemies. SO NO I HAVEN'T AN HEART!!!!!!!!!!!

And she back away with the shout and he make her release him and he pick her and place her over his shoulder and say walking away with her:

Please enjoy the story.

And he walk away.

Chapter twenty: Truth of the present.

And they stay in silence. And Tsubasa break it and say:

You can at least call then now and say hi. At least to Chisa and Fuu.

And Tanaka pick the cell phone and think:

I want to talk with then! But I can't!

And she look at the cell phone and to the friend. And Tsubasa say:

What is wrong Hoshie? You look troubled.

And Tanaka say:

Is nothing Tsubasa. But I can't do it. If I call then I will want to see then. And I will not able to keep my mind of the trip and the reports.

And Tsubasa get a little sad and she say:

You want stay in that school so much?

And Tanaka open her mouth to say something. She stop and after a tense silence she say:

Is that have a person that I like in there. And I don't want to be away from it.

And Tanaka think:

I am so sorry Tsubasa. But I can't tell you the truth. Is too hard. I was dragged in this world and I don't want to drag you and the others too. I hate to lie to you but is the only way to keep you safe. Away from me and the battle high. Away from the danger. Now I am too weak to protect you and the others in any other way as Juli do. I can only hide and wait for the best.

And Tsubasa say:

I see. You have told him how you feel?

And Tanaka nod. And Tsubasa say:

And how he looks like?

And Tanaka say:

He is tall with long black hair. He is very handsome and is a kind man.

And Tanaka think:

Sorry Tsubasa to keep lying to you. And sorry Benji to use you as an excuse to my friend. I am really sorry.

And Tsubasa say:

I see. And he have answered what?

And she say:

That he like me too.

And Tsubasa think:

She look very troubled. I know for sure that have something wrong. She is hiding something. Especially after she begun to telling about this boy. I want to make her tell me everything but I am afraid of make her run away again.

And they stay in silence for a while. Julietta arrive and say:

The others are going to see a movie. Since is all calm we can stay here. So have you two putted the talk on day?

And she see the two girls in a tense silence and think:

God it is worse than when I left.

And Julietta sit on her chair. And Tsubasa phone rings and the teen pick it from Tanaka and excuse herself. And Julietta say when Tsubasa is out of the ear range:

What happened?

And Tanaka tell her and Julietta sigh and say:

I see. So you are afraid of slip about us and the problems around here. Is very thoughtful of our part but it is all right. You can tell then about the battle high. Only say that we are in a kind of game of catch with another school group and you can't talk much about it. And about using Benji is all right. That idiot don't mind.

And in a stop sign a biker sneeze. And he say:

Damn someone must be talking bad about me.

And on the mall Julietta say:

About telling about Benji you say that you was lying and you are dating me. That will for sure make her stop asking about the school and your reasons.

And Tanaka blush madly and say:

I can't lie about that!

And Julietta say winking sexily:

You would not be lying. Only speeding up the things.

And Tanaka blush more and say:

Tell me that you are joking.

And Julietta say:

I am. But trust me she will be so embarrassed that she will not even ask more about the school.

And Tsubasa return and say:

That was Chisa, she said that she just met an amazing biker. He drive a bad ass modified dark metal blue race bike. And that he fought against a huge gang of bikers alone and won.

And Julietta look at Tsubasa and Tanaka look at Julietta and Tanaka say:

And she is well?

And Tsubasa say:

She is fine. She is in love for that guy who don't even know her name. And that she will never see him again.

And she sit on her chair and Tsubasa say:

And I haven't told her about you.

And Tanaka say:

Thank you.

And Tsubasa say:

No problem. But I want to you keep in touch with us again. You can call or send letters or e-mails. Only do that.

And Tanaka nod. And Tsubasa say:

Now show me a picture of your boyfriend.

And Tanaka blush madly and Tsubasa say:

What?

And Julietta say:

You know it that she lied to you. She don't have a boyfriend.

And Tsubasa say:

But why you lied Hoshie?

And Julietta say:

Is because she have a girlfriend. You know is a red head with a scar on the left cheek.

And Tanaka blush even more and Tsubasa blush too. And Tsubasa say in shy and weak tone:

I see so you two was in a date.

And Julietta nod and say:

Yes. We usually keep it in secret. We don't need all that publicity you know.

And Tsubasa blush move a well Tanaka. And they stay quiet. Way later the two friends are saying farewell and Tsubasa say:

Look I don't mind of your choice of company. I still want to be your friend. So let's keep in touch. And don't worry I will not tell to anyone.

And Tanaka nod. And they walk away. And Julietta say:

See it worked.

And Tanaka is blushing a lot and they walk away too. Meanwhile in the trucks Benji park and enter in one and Sei say:

Hey I thought that you have gone out with the other.

And he say:

I only went out for grab some food.

And he toss his jacket on a chair and put the heavy sword on there too and Sei say:

And where you get that?

And he say:

It was a bonus meal.

And Sei say:

You killed a demon for get a weapon?

And he nod and she say:

Geez. You are hopeless.

And Aki walk in and say:

I know.

And Benji sit in a couch and lay on it and say:

I am going to take a nap. If something happen call me.

And the duo nod.

DREAM SEQUENCE: One year before. Third person point of view.

It is a normal day in the Asao high. Benji, Kumi and Julietta are in the dean office. And the dean say to then:

You two have good grades and an impressive martial background. Even with the notes of being trouble makers. The younger of you is an average student. Look I will ignore the notes. But I want see the results.

And there is a knock in the door and a voice say:

Principal it is Kenji.

And the dean say:

Come in.

And a tall red head teen walk in, he have short hair and is wearing a school uniform. And the dean say:

Look this is your hall leader Kimura Kenji. He will show you guys the school and it will explain you three the rules.

And the trio nod and they walk away. And Kenji say:

Nice to meet you guys. So let's begin?

And they nod and walk away. Later in the dorm Benji is on his room unpacking and Julietta is on the door frame and she say:

Weird coincidence taking out two words you name and the hall leader name is not the same.

And Benji say:

Yeah. You will not unpack?

And she say:

I will later. But now I want to know what you thought of this place.

And Benji say:

Well sure have nice views. And I guess that it is all right. After fight o much and after those guys chasing Kumi I think that is good for all of us the change of environment.

And Julietta say:

And about that thing of the martial skills? You think that is for tournaments?

And Benji say:

Maybe. You know as well as me that the schools have clubs and teams to play in the tournaments to get famous. It can be it. More famous more students. More students more money to then.

And Julietta say:

I know. But it is a bit weird all this. That Mayumi travel all the way to Hokkaido to get us. Offer a very amazing scholarship to you and a good one for me. And agreed with your terms don't seem like a regular recruiting routine.

And Benji say:

Well let's give it a shot. If not work we can go away.

And the red head nod. In the same day afternoon Benji is walking around the school. He move to the school main building and he sit in one of the benches of the garden and look at the fountain. And he say:

Gee everyone is still in the classes. And this place don't have much to do on it.

And he move his head back and look up to the clear blue sky. At least he try to. But he is looking at the face of a blonde girl with red eyes. Not shocked he say:

Hi.

And she say:

Hi. I though of surprise you. But you surprised me.

And he say:

I was just lucky.

And she give him a smile and he think:

God! That is the most beautiful smile that I have ever seen!

And he say:

You should be in the class right?

And she deny and her silky blonde hair move as she shake her head and she say:

Nope. We are not in the school year yet. The dean haven't told you?

And he deny and say:

No.

And she say:

We begin the year late. Tomorrow will be the first day of classes. After the opening ceremony.

And he say:

I see. It is to give time to all the students arrive.

And she nod agreeing and he say:

So what you are doing?

And she say:

I was walking around. And you?

And he say:

That too. I have done unpacking but there is nothing to do.

And she say:

I know. It is your first year right?

And he nod and she say:

Well it is normal. Later you can buy things to put on your room. All the students do it after sometime.

And they stay in silence for some time. A cloud cover the sun projecting a shadow over then. And he say:

You mind if I ask your name?

And she say:

Only if you don't mind of I asking yours.

And he say:

I don't.

And she say:

Neither do I. My name is Hojo Haruka.

And Benji say:

I am Himura Benji. But you are not from that ancient Hojo clan are you?

And she chuckle and Benji think:

God her voice is so sweet. And her chuckle is even sweeter.

And she say:

No I am not from that clan.

And they stay in a pleasant quietness for few instants and a male voice say:

He is bothering you Hojo-kun?

And they turn to the voice and they see a tall black haired man wearing a black suit standing near of a close entrance. And she say:

He is not bothering me. We are chatting. You know sensei as I told before I do what I want.

And he say:

That is not wise. You know that it is not prudent to piss off a teacher of this school. You can get in trouble easily.

And Benji say:

It is that a threat?

And the teacher say:

No. It is a warning. And it is for you too Himura. I am quite aware of your record. Only martial skills will not take you to anywhere.

And Benji say:

Want to bet.

And Benji say that in a normal tone as stating a fact. And the teacher back away a bit and say:

This is only a warning.

And he walk away. And Benji turn to face Haruka and she is gone. He sigh and get up. He walk out of the building and he think:

Too bad. She is someone that I would like to know better.

And he move to his dorm. After the opening ceremony and the classes Benji is wandering around the school. And he move to the Ishiji hall roof and sit in a bench. And sometime later Julietta come in and say:

Hey Benji I just found this. The Itsukino twins are also on the school!

And Benji say:

Miki and Sachiko?!

And the red head nod and say:

Yes! I just met then!

And Benji say:

That is good. At least there will be some familiar faces around here.

And Julietta nod and say:

Well I will help then to unpack. And since they don't want you messing around they clothes stay here.

And he say:

No problem I was not going to help then to unpack anyway.

And Julietta say:

Yeah sure. Only a slight tearful look from Sachiko and you would be doing any kind of task that she want you to do.

And she walk away. And Benji sigh. He pick on his uniform blazer pocket a wood ocarina and begun to play a soft tune. And he play for few minutes. And when he stop he hear someone clapping and a voice say:

Very nice! It was a beautiful music!

And surprised he drop the ocarina that breaks and he turn to see the person that talked to him. And he recognize Haruka and say:

Why you keep sneaking around me?

And she say:

For fun. And I wanted to hear the song. So I didn't make a noise to disturb you.

And she walk closer and he see the ocarina and he begun to pick up the shards and she say:

Sorry. I didn't mean to break your flute.

And he say:

There is no problem I can make another one.

And he pierce his finger on a shard and he say:

Shit!

And he drop the shards again and he take out the shard from his finger and it begun to bleed. And she say:

Oh my god you are bleeding!

And he say:

It is nothing. Only a scratch.

And she say:

Hold on.

And she pick his hand and put his finger on her mouth and she suck the wound. Benji have a faint blush. And after sometime she stop and say:

Here.

And the bleeding have stopped. And she notice his faint blush and blush too. And she say:

I haven't done something wrong have I?

And he say:

It is not that. It is that you surprised me by doing it.

And they chat for a while. And one month later the school is having a dance. Benji is on a corner with a glass on his hand. And Haruka walk to him and say:

Why you are not dancing?

And he say:

I am not a good dancer.

And she say:

Come on dance with me.

And she hold his free hand and pull him. He put the glass in a table and she pull him to an empty corner of the dance floor. She put his hands around her waist and pass her arms around his neck and they dance in the slow dance. And after sometime he say:

Why you keep hanging out with me? You know very well my reputation.

And she say looking straight on his eyes:

So what? I like to hang out with you.

And he say:

Why?

And she say:

I just do. Or I need to explain to you every time that I want to hang out with you?

And he say:

It is not needed. It is just that you are cute and normal girl. I am a fighter and a troublemaker. Staying with me will only damage your reputation.

And she say:

I am not all that normal. Let me tell you this. Since I saw you I have been attracted to you. I like being with you.

And they blush and continue to dance. After the dance is over Benji and Haruka stay some more time in the tennis courts that was the dance floor. And they are all alone. And Benji say:

Come on I will take you to your dorm.

And she nod and they walk to her dorm. She hold on his arm and smile at the feeling leaning her head on his shoulder. On the next day Benji is walking around the empty school and he think:

It is Sunday and there is nothing to do.

And he is wearing his regular clothes. He is walking to the library when he see Haruka being chased by a large group of teens. She is running to the parking lot. Benji begun to run too. But he is far of then. They reach her on the library and one of then pull her by her long hair and make her lose her balance and fell. And that one begun to rip her shirt. Benji pull from his vest some throwing knifes and toss then at the teens. One of then hit the hand of the one ripping her clothes. He leap backwards as well the others and remove the knife from his hand and Benji reach Haruka. And one of then say:

What you want?

And Benji say:

I will not let you guys hurt her.

And one of then say:

You know who we are rookie?! We are from the soldats! Fuck off before you get hurt!

And they pull Japanese daggers and swords disguised as training woods swords. And Benji pull from his back a half meter long one inch thick black rod. And one of then say:

Woo how scary!! A rod.

And other one say:

A rod against swords and ten of then.

And Benji hold the rod horizontally in front of him and say:

Who said that this is a rod?

And then two long blades with two edges show from the rod tips and it became a long two edge spear. And the teens back away a bit and Benji say:

To get her you all will have to pass by me.

And one say:

He is only one and we are ten soldats!

And they charge Benji.

End of the chapter twenty:

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 and her friends. The cities of Sawamura, Tsukiakari and Kowa are fictional. Any semblances with real Japanese's 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.

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.
