She walked home in the middle of the night, not a very smart thing to do, even within the confines of the elite academy of Ohtori. She was humming along to a new tape that Miki had recorded for her of his piano playing. She so loved to listen to the rich sounds of the piano, and Miki was the best player she knew, except, he said, for Anthy Himemiya.
She heard a sound from her left as she stopped to turn the tape over to the other side. She slowly removed one earphone to better hear where the sound was coming from. She listened for a full minute before shrugging, about to replace the earphone.
...But there it was again. A sort of rustling sound from the bushes surrounding the rose garden. She turned towards the sound, curious as to who would be out so late at night besides herself.
"Hello? Is anybody there? It's not funny, whoever you are. That better not be you, Yohiki! This isn't funny!"
But then the person presented themselves. She gasped. The person she saw made her blood run cold.
"N-no...how did you get here? I thought you couldn't-"
"Shh...That doesn't matter now. I'm here to take back what you stole from me."
In a flash, the shadowed person had her by the arm, twisting it behind her, the other leather clad hand covering her mouth. She tried to bite and kick and scream, of course, but it was no use. They were too strong for her. They dragged her into the rose garden, and Wakaba Shinohara was never seen again.
...Not alive, anyway...
