Chapter 3

Time passed really slow as the two boys sat inside the room, safe from all the other people outside. They had not exchanged one word since they last spoke and there was nothing else that Sora hated most. He was never fond of silence and it bothered him. Hence, Sora broke the silence that filled the room.

"Ne, Fujimori, I really don't want to get caught by any of these freaks…" he sighed and looked down with a disappointed face. Why did Matsuri make him do these kind of things? He should be the one suffering instead of them. It's not like they were going to get paid for this or anything.

"Well, I don't think anyone in our place would like to be caught…unless they lost their sanity" Sunao said as he stood up and began pacing up and down the room, adjusting his dress. "At least you won't have to run around wearing a dress"

"Oh? Well, I think that the dress suits you very well" replied Sora with a smirk.

"Urusai Hashiba!" exclaimed Sunao who sat back down with his arms crossed against his chest.

It was amusing for Sora to see all those people waiting outside for them. He shivered at the thought of himself being caught. What sort of sick thing would they make him do? As he began thinking more and more about the various things that some of his fellow school friends could make him do, he began to get into a dense state of semi-depression. Sunao noticed this and stood up, trying to make Sora's mood better without actually letting Sora know of such intentions.

Sunao turned towards him, a deep, evil grin on his face. "You know what we should do?" he began

"Hm?…what?"

"Make a plan"

"A plan?"

Sunao sighed. "Yes Hashiba…a plan"

At that moment the door slammed open and Shinichirou walked in followed by a not so happy Nanami. He stared at the two boys inside and became weirdly shocked by Sunao. He looked good in that dress…and shameful of him to say, if he was a really girl he would go out with him any time. Shinichirou's thoughts were interrupted by Nanami who walked in front of him hitting his head slightly.

"You know, it's rude to stare."

"Ah- mm…gomen"

Sunao felt his cheeks become warmer and warmer. It was uncomfortable to have all these people staring at you with a dress on. He tried to look away and just listen to what they had to say.

"Ni-chan? Nande omae wa koko ni?" asked Sora, who had joined him in the Sunao staring contest.

"Oh, Matsuri was just in my office informing me of what's going to happen today."

"Damn Matsuri, making us do this again"

Shinichirou laughed at this but was stopped shortly after by Nanami's hand, which was placed on his mouth to attempt to shut him up.

"Sora-kun" he began "Why is it that Matsuri-chan came up with this again?"

"Oh, so your bothered by this too Nanami-chan?" Sora began to make believe he was crying…which was really a bad attempt. "It's awful…"

"Well, I'm bothered because everybody out here is skipping class and the people that were resting in the infirmary are now out here."

"-….-"

Sunao couldn't help but laugh at Sora's disappointed face. Just when he thought he could get away with this, everything failed. Sora had to keep trying. Maybe…since Shinichirou was now in charge of everything the "Do-it-alls" did, he could convince him to make Matsuri cancel everything. He slowly walked towards Shinichirou and hugged him. He was now trying to make himself cry so that it would seem….sadder. Maybe Shinichirou's heart would be moved.

"Ne…can you please do something to cancel things? I mean, we've already suffered through this before. Please…please don't make us do this again!"

Sunao looked at him and sighed. He was such a cry baby. Although he had to admit, he was also not too happy with doing this all over.

"Sorry, but everything's already starting…" Shinichirou replied as he pointed out the window.

Sora turned around and saw Matsuri with a microphone in hand. He ran towards the window and stared, with his mouth open, as Matsuri began talking.

"Thank you for waiting everyone! Today is the day when you get to chase the beautiful Fujimori Sunao and Hashiba Sora!"

There were huge cheers going on outside as Matsuri spoke. Every cheer seemed to weight 100 pounds on Sora since every time he heard one, he sank lower to the ground.

"Now, I will repeat the rules for those of you who don't know" continued Matsuri "The goal is to catch either one of them, or both. If you succeed you will have the opportunity to use them for a whole day to do as you please. In a few minutes they will be released from that room and the whole thing will start."

Sora was already on his knees at this point listening to everything his blonde friend was saying. Sunao, Shinichirou and Nanami were also by the window watching everything from inside the room. Just when they thought that Matsuri was done talking, he smiled and began talking again.

"Now, since last time there was complaints that Fujimori-kun and Hashiba-kun shouldn't be able to catch themselves, this time, that will be against the rules, so you have to be the ones who catch them. Also, last time there was a time limit. This time, I will let you go for as long as you want until midnight. You have a good 12 hours for this. Good luck!"

With that, Matsuri disconnected the microphone and walked through the crowd of cheering students towards the room where Sora and Sunao waited. Everybody outside turned towards the room and watched as Matsuri entered. Everybody's faces seemed possessed, some of them had a huge grin on their faces while other people had plain freaky complexions.

Matsuri opened the door to the room and headed towards the bunch inside.

"Are, Shinichirou-sensei? Nanami-sensei? I didn't know you would be here"

"Yes well, we just came to check on these two before the whole thing got started" replied Nanami.

"I see. Well, Nao-kun, Sora, shall we?" he asked as he pointed towards the door.

Sunao and Sora stood next to each other and stared at him. Matsuri sighed and walked to them grabbing their arms and dragging them outside. Complaints were heard from both of them until they were finally outside.

/Oh no…that's it. We're doomed./

/I don't want to do this! I don't want to do this/

Sora and Sunao opened their eyes as Matsuri stopped. There was nothing around but an empty field and some trees, bushes and rocks.

"Where's everybody?" asked Sora. He had expected to be in front of all of the people that had been watching them from outside the room.

"They're back there" replied Matsuri while pointing back to the way they came from.

"but I thought…" began Sunao "Weren't we supposed t-"

"I wasn't going to let you guys get caught so easily" interrupted Matsuri with a wink. "I'm not that mean, you should at least get a head start and try to hide somewhere."

Sunao and Sora looked at Matsuri, then at each other and nodded.

"Well, then. Good luck not getting caught. You'll start to see people over here in about 5 minutes so get as far ahead as you can" with that and a swift wave of his hand, Matsuri turned around and headed back.

It wasn't long after that the two boys began running on the opposite direction trying to find a place to hide where it would be hard for the others to find them. After about two minutes looking, they found a small cave near some rocks by a lake. The so called cave was not necessarily big enough for two people but they were thin enough to fit without so much discomfort.

Sora headed in first to make sure there was nothing in there. Once he had made sure, he called Sunao in. The pink-haired boy crawled in carefully trying to avoid hitting himself with the sharp edges. As he went in, his hand landed on something sharp and removing his hand due to the pain, he lost balance and fell on Sora.

At first, Sora didn't do anything because he was trying to figure out what had happened. Sunao on the other hand was still on Sora, his head on Sora's stomach. His blush was growing redder and redder. Thank god the cave was dark.

Sunao quickly got off of him once he realized what had happened and positioned himself a bit further from the other to avoid any other accidents.

"G-gomen Hashiba.."

"A-ah..it's fine. Are you alright?"

"Yeah, just…my hand" Sunao touched his injured hand "Ite!…"

Sora heard him and unconsciously moved closer to the other and grabbed his hand trying his best to see where and what he was touching. Bringing Sunao's hand up to his eyelevel he was able to see some amount of blood on the palm of his hand. Sora tore off a small piece of his shirt and wrapped it around Sunao's hand.

"H-Hashiba?.."

"We can't let it get infected." replied Sora confidently.

Not too long after that they began hearing voices and sounds of people running around. Sora looked at the small whole in the cave where they came in. He was able to see a couple of moving feet though the hole.

"Looks like it started…"
