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 So there is steam power but is outdated.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:

Why you placed me in so many embarrassing situations?!

And Benji say:

To make a good story.

And she calm a bit and let him go and say:

And why the dream sequence?

And he say:

To show up what happened before the story begins. At least part of it.

And she stay quiet and he say:

Please enjoy the story.

And they walk away.

Chapter twenty one: Past of a relation.

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 and fife run 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. He dodge and slash then. Two fall holding the stomach and Benji spin the rod and cut another teen leg off in a single blow. He use the same motion and cut another one foot. Benji spin and kick another one. And they all are in the ground. And Benji say to then:

So the one still on one piece want to try losing some body part?

And he run away scared. Benji in a move of his wrist clean the blade and then the blades get in the rod and he put it on his back. And he take out his vest and move to Haruka and say:

You are hurt?

And she deny while he cover her with his vest. He carefully put it on her and close it covering her breasts. And he say:

Come on I will take you to your room.

And he pick her up. And while he walk away she say:

Benji take me to your room.

And he say:

But why?

And she say:

Only take me there okay.

And he nod and walk to his dorm. In his room he put her in the bed and say:

I will pick some clothes to you. It will be loose but it is better than your ripped uniform.

And he move to his closet. And he begun to search on his clothes. And Haruka say:

Why you saved me?

And he stop and say:

Because I care about you.

And she say:

But they was fife and was all armed.

And Benji say:

Quality beats quantity.

And Haruka say:

You could have been killed.

And Benji say:

No I would not. I am better than then.

And she get up and walk to him and hug him from behind and she say:

When I saw you I got happy to see you coming to help me. But I got scared because they was going to kill you.

And he feel her tears on his back and he say:

Look I did what I wanted to.

And he turn and cup her chin making her face him and say:

Look I don't regret it.

And Haruka hug his neck and kiss him. Too surprised to react Benji only respond staying quiet. And after a long time Haruka broke the kiss. And she say:

Thank you for saving me.

And he say:

You are welcome. But why the kiss?

And she say:

Because I love you.

And she kiss him again. Now he respond to it. And after another long kiss they move apart and he say:

Haruka are you sure? You might be confused by everything that just happened.

And she say:

I am not confused. I have this feeling have sometime now. But I never thought that you would protect me.

And he say:

I will always protect you.

And she nod and hug him tighter, she rest her head on his shoulder and say:

You love me Benji?

And he say:

Yes. I love you.

And she say in a faint voice:

Then make love with me.

And he say:

But it is too soon.

And she say:

It isn't. And I want to give you what they tried to steal from me.

And she kiss him again. He broke the kiss and say:

Okay. But I think that we should at least clean up. We both have blood on us.

And she nod and they walk to the bathroom. In there she open his shirt and begun to undress her. He do the same with her. And they get under the shower. After a quick bath they move to the bed. She hug him and say:

I am all yours. Just be gently.

And he nod and say:

I will.

And he kiss her eyelids. And he kiss her all over her face. And he kiss her lips. She respond with eager. And he caress her slender body with his hands. Later they are under the sheets. Haruka is lying beside Benji left side with her head resting on his chest and hugging him. And Benji is holding her with his left arm around her and he is caressing her hair softly. And Benji say:

There is a thing that I want to ask you since we met.

And she say:

Go on ask me.

And he say:

You have any European ancestors?

And she say:

Why?

And Benji say:

Well I know that you don't dye your hair by seeing you naked. So it is natural. And normally Japanese's don't have light colored hair.

And she say:

If I am not wrong in somewhere around my great-grandfather generation I had a Swiss relative. A woman if I am not wrong. But according to pictures I am the first blonde in the family.

And he say:

And your eyes?

And she say:

Well that I don't know. I heard that she had sky blue eyes. But my family always had unusual eyes color. But why? You didn't like then?

And he say kissing her forehead:

I love then. I just want to know more about you.

And she smile and say:

I want to know more about you too.

And she lick his chest and say:

Why you got so many scars?

And Benji say:

I got hurt a lot.

And he caress her back and he feel her shiver with it and he say:

But I like your skin. It is smooth, warm, soft, sweet, flawless and perfect.

And she say:

I am not all that.

And he say:

You are.

And she smile and snuggle closer of him and then she say:

Benji what will do about the school? You killed those guys.

And Benji say:

I don't care.

And she say:

I care. You can get expelled because of me. You can also get in the jail.

And he say:

There will be no problem. They was assaulting you. I did what I had to protect you.

And she say:

But...

And he touch on her lips with his forefinger and he say:

Let it go. I don't want to talk about it. Especially after what we have done.

And she nod. The sky is painted in crimson with the sunset. And then there is a knock in Benji door. Haruka cover herself with the sheet and Benji say:

One moment!

And from the other side Kenji voice say:

Hurry up! We have to talk!

And Benji say:

Unless you want to see me naked wait a couple of minutes!!

And Kenji say:

One minute! Put something fast!

And Benji get up and pick on his pants and his vest. And Haruka hold on his hand and he say:

It is okay. Wait here that I will come back.

And she nod and let him go. Benji open the door and Kenji say:

Can you explain to me what happened?

And Benji say:

Those guys was assaulting a girl. I did that to save her.

And Kenji say:

And who is she?

And Benji say:

I prefer not to say.

And Kenji sigh and say:

You have any idea of what you have just done?

And Benji say:

I don't care.

And Kenji say:

Geez you are worse than me. Come on the dean want to see you.

And he pull Benji away. Benji close the door and walk away. Haruka sit on the bed and hug her knees crying. On the way to the dean office Benji say:

So what will happen to me?

And Kenji say:

You serious injured four kids. Crippled two of then and let the other two with the guts opened. And you left then to die in the library.

And Benji say:

If the fifth guy didn't asked for help it is not my fault. They are my enemies. I was even nice enough t not give the killing blow.

And Kenji sigh and say:

What will happen it will be decided by the dean.

And few minutes later in the dean office Benji and Kenji are standing facing the dean. And the dean say:

You have an idea of how close of killing those four you got?

And Benji say:

Not close enough.

And Kenji hit Benji with his elbow. And the dean say:

You crippled two of then. They fencing carriers is over. The other two will get lucky if manage to walk again. And why you did that?

And Benji say:

They was assaulting a girl. I prevent then.

And the dean say:

What is her name?

And Benji say:

I prefer not to mention.

And the dean say:

I don't know who is worse. You or the soldats. In the few time that you are in the school you got in more trouble than the usual trouble makers get in one semester. And all of then with the soldats and Juichi.

And Benji say:

So?

And the dean say:

It is quite clear that it is too dangerous let you alone and unleashed around the school. Kenji he is now a member of the battle high. It begin from this moment. If you need to restrain him do it. I don't want to see senseless fights involving him and the soldats.

And Kenji say:

But sir.

And the dean say:

I am final. Put some sense on him. He need it. And at least as a battle high member he can have an excuse to beat the soldats.

And Benji say:

I don't want to join a club.

And the dean say:

You don't have a choice. Read the rules and obey and understand this only because they begin give you no reason to kill then.

And Kenji say:

And what I do with him?

And the dean say:

You begun to train or baby sit him tomorrow. I am cleaning the mess that he have done. You two can leave now.

And they leave and Benji say:

Just great.

And Kenji say:

It is my line. I don't know if you are suited to the battle high. You are more like a soldat.

And Benji say:

I am going to my place.

And Kenji say:

I will take you there so I can make sure that you don't end in more trouble.

And they walk back to the dorm. Benji walk in his room and Kenji try to follow and Benji say:

Where you think that you are going to?

And Kenji say:

In.

And Benji say:

No. You are not getting in.

And Kenji say:

And why that?

And Benji say:

Because it is my room.

And Kenji say:

You slipped a girl in your room?

And Benji blush and Kenji force to enter and see Haruka sleeping on Benji bed. She is wearing a loose white social shirt and she is half covered by the bed sheet. And Kenji say:

Well I was right. You know that it is not against any rules have sex since is consented.

And Benji say:

In any case leave.

And Kenji see a torn shirt and pick it up and say:

She was the one who you saved?

And Benji nod and Kenji say:

I see. By your reactions you have feelings for her.

And he nod again. And Kenji say:

Now it get easier. I was wrong about you be more like a soldat. I think that you are a bit crude but you will give a fine battle high fighter.

And Kenji toss the shirt aside and say:

If she is your woman take care of her. I will not talk to the dean about this.

And Benji nod and Kenji walk away. Benji close and lock his door and he take out the vest and sit on the bed. Haruka move and wake and she say:

Hi.

And he say:

Hi.

And he caress her cheek and say:

Why you was crying?

And she say:

I thought that you could not come back.

And he say:

I will say in the school. So don't cry.

And she nod and kneel on the bed and he say:

Where you get that shirt?

And she say:

In your closet. I hope that you don't mind. It is a bit loose. But I thought if some one walked in I should be dressing something.

And the shirt sleeves are open and can only be seen the tip of her fingers, the shirt cover her until the middle of the thighs and it is loose. The top buttons are open showing part of her breasts. And he hug her by the waist and say:

I don't mind. You look great on it.

And she hug him around the neck and kiss him. A long time later Benji and Haruka are in his room and he shout:

Why you did it Haruka?!

And she shout back:

Why? Why?! Because I love you!!

And he say:

You love me?! You are now part of then!! You know very well how they work!!

And Haruka say:

I know! But it is our only chance to get rid of the curse and be happy!!!

And Benji say:

In trade of that many will die and lots more will suffer!! I don't want that our happiness cause pain to the others!!! I could not live with myself!!

And Haruka say:

Our happiness is more important than anything!!! I am only with then because they can cure us!!

And Benji say:

I don't want a cure with that price!!

And Haruka say:

Benji you have to accept that to us lose the curse the price is sacrifices!!

And Benji say:

Why you can't accept the curse?! It is only immortality! We used to talk about expend the eternity together!!

And Haruka say:

Not like this! I don't want to see any children that we might have die!! Benji understand it is only few lives!!!

And Benji say:

I don't want it!!

And Haruka say:

Why not?! For Christ sake you killed more people that the ´people that we need to get rid of the curse!!

And Benji say:

Because I needed to! As an extreme measure!!

And she say:

This is an extreme measure!!

And Benji say:

I will not accept it!

And she say:

We can stay together!!

And Benji say:

With that price I prefer not! We are no longer lovers Haruka!! If you want the cure go ahead and cure yourself! Because I will not love someone who is willing to kill people for the proper benefits!!!

And she begin to cry and say:

Benji you can't mean that!!!

And he say:

I mean it Haruka!! You are no longer my girlfriend!! From now on we are enemies and I will prevent you from killing! Take what ever it takes!! We don't have a relationship anymore!!

And she bust in tears and shout:

Fine then!!! We no longer have anything!!!!

And she leave the room.

END OF THE DREAM SEQUENCE:

Benji wake all of sudden and sit in the couch. And Aki say:

Hey what happened? A nightmare?

And he say:

Just a bad memory that come back to haunt.

And he lie again and think:

Why after so long I have this dream again?

And he look at the ceiling. And Sei say:

It is almost dinner time. It seen that the kids are enjoying themselves.

And Benji get up and pick his jacket and begun to move away and Aki say:

Where you are going?

And Benji say:

Out.

And he walk out and get on his bike and Aki say:

You are taking a cell phone?!
And he say starting the bike:

Yes.

And he drive away. And Sei come out with her arms crossed under her large breasts and she say:

What happened with him?

And Aki say:

I guess that he had a dream with Haruka. He only get that altered with her in the middle.

And Sei say:

They broke up sometime after the curse right?

And Aki say:

Yes. Benji broke up with her after she joined the soldats.

And Sei say:

Really? I thought that she broke up with him. I was wrong then.

And Aki nod and they get inside. Later in a ramen cart Benji is sited in a stall and he have a glass of sake in front of him and some appetizers in front of him. Two stalls away have a couple. It is Tsubasa and a male teen. Benji is not paying attention to then and he drink from his glass and ask for more. And Tsubasa say:

So Eiji-kun what you wanted to talk with me?

And the teen say:

Is about Tanaka-chan. You have heard something from her?

And Tsubasa say:

I haven't. Why you are asking?

And he say:

You know is that I like her.

And Tsubasa say:

I see. But I haven't since she left she haven't contacted any of us.

And a tall woman with long blonde hair walk to the cart and sit beside Benji and she is wearing a black kimono. And she say:

Sir give me a warm sake.

And the man say:

Sure miss.

And she say in a low tone:

Hi Benji.

And he say after take another sip from his cup:

What you are doing in here Tsuruko?

And she say:

That is way to talk to your grandmother?

And Benji say:

Only by adoption.

And she say:

In any case you own me respect. After all Sho raised and trained you.

And he say:

You still haven't answered me.

And the man put a small bottle in front of her and a small cup. And Benji say:

Another one.

And the man nod and put more sake to Benji. And Tsuruko pour some sake to herself and she sip it and say after the man walk away:

One of the reasons is to check on you. After all you left after the trail near dead carried by your cat and that moon fairy.

And Benji say:

So I am in one piece again. Case you have forgotten old hag I am a immortal.

And she sigh and sip more from her sake and say:

Watch your tongue brat. I am still more powerful that you.

And Benji say teasing:

Then why I won from you on the trial?

And she say:

You got lucky. But what you think that you are doing?

And Benji say:

Drinking.

And he in one large sip drink all the glass and ask for a refill and she say:

I don't mean that your moron. Why you still fight now with your energy sealed away as a curse. You are just like me now. But unlike me you can't produce energy anymore.

And Benji say:

I will still fight no matter how I am.

And he pick the bottle from the man and fill the glass and stay with it. And Benji drink it all and pay for it and walk away. She pay her sake and walk away. And he is moving to his bike and she say:

I am not done with you yet.

And Benji say:

Give me a break. I am not in the mood to listen to you.

And she hold his arm and he stop and she say:

But you will listen wanting or not.

And there is a tense silence. And she say:

You really think that you can keep like this forever? You can't keep ignoring the council. You don't have the right anymore.

And Benji say:

Only because master chosen me as his successor don't mean that I will be it. You know as well as me. I don't give a damn to then.

And she say:

You only say this because they used you to explain the troubles on the tournament.

And Benji say:

I never liked then and you know it. Now let me go. I am not finished with my drinking.

And he get away from her grip and she say:

And she grab him by the collar and toss him away. He fly in the air. He spin and land on his foot in the end of the street. And she is running to him. Benji turn his back to her and run away. And he think:

I can't face her here.

And can hear her steps on the asphalt only few meter away from him. Benji enter in a alley and jump in a wall. He kick the wall and get more leverage and he move to the other side of the alley and jump in the wall and repeat as many times he need to get in the roof. And from there he jump from rooftop from rooftop. And he hear Tsuruko coming behind him. And on a leap he spin and see her jumping behind him. He draw a pistol and shot her. There is no loud bang. It have an suppressor and she jump in the air and avoid it. And Benji smile and spin again and land in the other roof and run away. Tsuruko have landed in the other roof and she have to leap again. And he can feel her getting closer and he leap down to the street and run away. He avoid the cars and run to a park. Tsuruko do the same. And in the park Benji stop and she say stopping too:

You really needed to run all this?

And he say:

Warm up and if we fought in there people would get hurt.

And she say:

As usual you worry too much.

And she get in a fighting stance. And Benji put his gun on the holster and she say:

I still got impressed to see you facing me in your current state. Most of people would only run away trying to escape.

And Benji say:

I am not most of people.

And he also get in a fighting stance. And in the clear night the wind stop and the two stay only facing the other. And Tsuruko move forward a bit and her left leg show from the kimono opening. Benji dash to her and prepare a punch. She charge a black energy ball on her hand and dash to him.

End of the chapter twenty one:

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.
