It was an ordinary day
at Ohtori Academy. Wakaba bounded alongside Tatsuya smiling and laughing
happily. Jury watched the Fencing Team practice, calling out her usual
criticism and er, encouragement, Shiori leaning over the railing to see.
Miki sat beside Mitsuru on the piano bench playing along with him while
Kozue stood by the door. Inside the kendo room, Touga and Saonji practiced
with each other and Nanami made tea for them. No one remembered Utena Tenjou
or Anthy Himemaya. No one except Akio Ohtori. They were the only things
on his mind. He was planning a deviously sweet revenge on his little sister.
She had humiliated him and she would pay for that. He would make sure of
it. He just needed a little help…and that wasn't going too hard to get.
Akio's slender fingers
twirled several silky strands of Touga's hair around slowly. Touga sighed,
lying back on the couch beside the chairman and smirked a little. Akio
smirked back.
"Now…about that favor
I wanted to ask of you…"
Touga closed his blue eyes.
"Hmm, I suppose that
was worth at least one favor… What is it?"
"I can't tell you everything
just yet. But I'm going to need you to gather the rest of the Student Council…Kyouichi,
Kaoru, Arisugawa, the whole gang."
Touga opened one eye and nodded.
"Easy enough. Is that
all?"
"For now, yes," Akio
said, sitting up and running a hand down Touga's chest and stomach, then
bent down to kiss his skin.
Touga smiled and reached over to turn off the
light.
Miki Kaoru, Saonji Kyouichi,
Jury Arisugawa, and Touga sat at the small round table at the Student Council
building. Saonji held his chin in his hand and looked at Touga.
"I hope you have a good
reason for bringing us all here, Touga. I have better things to do, you
know."
"I'm sure you do, but
I'm in need of your assistance," came the sultry of Akio the chairman as
he came walking towards them.
The members of the council, except Touga, jumped,
slightly startled at the important man's entrance. It was a very rare thing
for them to see Akio Ohtori before them. He came to a stop in front of
the table, his hands resting on the table, as he leaned towards them.
"I'm sure you all will
be willing to help me?"
"Oh, uh, of course,
Mr. Ohtori," Miki said, nodding his head.
Jury and Saonji nodded lightly.
"Very good," Akio murmured.
He stood up straight and put his hands on hips.
"Now…do any of you remember
a girl named Utena Tenjou?"
"Utena…?" Miki and Jury
started to repeat.
"Tenjou…?" Saonji and
Touga finished.
Akio smiled a little and gave them some time
to think. After a while, Miki spoke up.
"I seem to remember
a Utena…"
"Yes, the name is vaguely
familiar," Saonji agreed.
"But I don't remember
anything of importance about her," Jury said.
Akio ran a hand through his hair.
"Well, she was a very
important girl…very important. She still is, in fact."
He paused for a moment, and then smiled.
"You, the Student Council,
are going to accompany me on a little…outing."
"An outing?"
"Yes…an outing…outside
of Ohtori Academy."
The members let out a collective gasp.
"You mean go into the
Outside World?!"
Anthy's green eyes gazed
outside the hotel window. Her hand held her chin and her hair blew gently
around her pretty face in the wind. ChuChu climbed up onto her lap and
looked up at her.
"Chu?" he squeaked,
tugging at her sleeve.
She looked down at him and smiled.
"Oh, hello, ChuChu.
I was just thinking."
"Chu?"
"About my brother,"
Anthy replied, reaching a finger down to stroke ChuChu's little head. "I
wonder what he's doing right now…"
Little did she know,
he was looking out at the very same sky at the moment, outside his bedroom
window.
"Anthy, my little mouse…I
know you are out there. You've probably already found Tenjou, haven't you?"
He paused as a smile spread across his lips. "Well, that will make it easier
for me. Anthy…I won Utena over from you before, and I will do it again."
To be continued…
