Chapter 5 action and reaction
back in the past, after they woke up with the hangovers haruko decided to go and blow some more stuff up, naota and mamimi just wanted to relax, haruko went out alone. About an hour later, naota and mamimi woke up to a terrible noise and a massive explosion in the distance. They decided to get onto the bike and drive to check it out...
At the scene haruko was fighting hordes among hordes of men, in front of some sort of facility. Naota overheard some conversation. Guy 1: "can you believe it, that crazy woman impacted one of the generators, we have less than an hour until the entire planet is destroyed." guy 2: "do you have any idea how to evacuate this entire world in 1 hour?" guy 1: "no, sadly, I don't" naota was filled with rage. Haruko "who cares? It isn't like this world is as good as naota here's" haruko started flirting with naota. Mamimi "stop! Don't you care about anyone but yourself?" haruko: "no, I just care about blowing stuff up, and a girl has to have her priorities if you know what I mean!" mamimi "oh why I outta!" naota: "why did you leave the bike back at the house?" haruko "I rode my guitar, the bike is for you guys to ride!" "Better get out of here before that thing blows!" naota "why don't we go get eri?" haruko "HER? WHY? She isn't anything to you!" naota "if you think that way, we'll just leave without you!" haruko "who cares I'm gonna blow more stuff up, then I'll leave, besides, you can't fly my bike!" naota "but I know someone who might, come on mamimi" haruko "why you no good--" the bike sped off, the smoke in her face. They went back to haruko's neighborhood and told eri about the generator. Eri "come on! Let's get out of here!" eri hopped on the bike and so did naota and mamimi, she took off into the sky. Jerry: "honey where are you going?" eri "you should be asking where you are going, because I don't have any idea what it's like!" they sped off towards earth and arrived back at naota and mamimi's home. Eri "thanks for bringing me back, I like earth better anyways!" "Nice house you have here!" naota "you know we're married right?" eri "really? So how can you get a house this nice?" naota "mamimi is a famous photographer." eri "I'm gonna go now, I have to find a place to get a job and settle down." mamimi "bye eri!" naota "yeah bye!" over the next couple months, they kept worrying about haruko, how she was, and ultimately if she survived, mamimi showed her signs of pregnancy, and naota couldn't believe it. Naota "I don't remember getting you pregnant, last time I did it I used protection, unless haruko screwed up." mamimi "don't say that, haruko never screwed up when she was alive!" naota "I told you she's not dead, I know she made it, she had to!" naota thought to himself: you know, it's funny, for a girl that never screws up, she sure did screw up my marriage... —FLCL ride on shooting star the pillows
