Yea, and since kiraLi and I had a discussion from a few chappies back, and through some research, I have decided to let Kira keep his eye colour as blue and change Lacus' eye colour to lavender (which is like purple). So I will soon upload edited versions of previous chappies to change the black to lavender.
And the title. You know Katrina was the hurricane that struck New Orleans? Yeah, major storm and flooding. Go Figure.
Yep. So RER!
-------------------------------------------------
Chapter 8: Katrina 2The orange sun glowed in the distance, gradually losing its brilliance. Its rays shone, but not as brightly as an hour ago. There were little clouds in the sky, and darkness was setting in. One could almost see the pale crescent shape of the moon, and the little twinkling stars. In a school somewhere, many students were moving about, and there were lots of hustle and bustle.
It was the day of the prom, and all the students were excited. Kira, Athrun and Dearka were all waiting at the lobby of the dormitory, waiting for their three girlfriends. From what Kira heard, Athrun and Dearka each had a successful date with Cagalli and Miriallia respectively.
"Geez, they are taking long, aren't they?" complained Dearka.
"Yeah, it's 6.30pm already, and we were supposed to meet them here at 6.00pm!" piped in Athrun.
"Well, I suppose they have to make up and all that, but half an hour is waaay overkill man!"
"Hey, Kira, don't you have anything to say?" asked Athrun.
"Huh, what?" asked Kira in a bewildered and spaced-out kind of tone.
"What were you thinking of? You kinda spaced out for a moment…" enquired Dearka.
Athrun glanced downwards of Kira's body, and started laughing. Dearka caught his gaze and started laughing too.
"Oh my god, something's hard, isn't it?" laughed Athrun.
Heat crept up Kira's neck and into his face. Looking extremely embarrassed, Kira said, "All right, just thinking about somebody"
All three of them were dressed smartly and appropriately for the occasion. All three of them were wearing tuxedos, and all looked stunning. Kira, in a rare moment, spiked his hair, and it looked a lot nicer than his usual hairstyle. Soon, Cagalli and Miriallia were seen exiting from the elevator and joining the guys.
Cagalli was dressed in a flowing yellow gown which matched her sunny hair and personality. Her yellow hair curled around her ears and she was pulling a face.
"What's wrong, Cagalli?" asked Athrun.
"Well, I hate dresses, and you know that! Why do girls have to wear dresses to official functions? Can't we wear pants like the guys?" grumbled Cagalli.
Miriallia was dressed in a white top and brown mini skirt which only covered a little of her thighs, leaving most of her legs in the open. Her brown hair was curled for the occasion and touched her shoulders.
"Well well, aren't we sexy, Mir?" asked Dearka.
"Erm… I definitely am, but I'm not so sure about you, Mr Elsman" said Miriallia.
Dearka, feinting hurt on his face, said, "How can you say that Mir? Never mind, I will show you on the dance floor"
"Oh yes Kira, Lacus is still preparing, and she asked us to go off first" said Miriallia.
"Oh all right, I will wait for her here, you guys go off first then. See ya there!" said Kira.
With that, Athrun held Cagalli's hands, while Dearka held Miriallia's hands, and the four of them strolled off towards the Grand Ballroom.
-------------------------------------------------
Kira checked his watch for the umpteenth time since the four of them left first. He was feeling rather frustrated and annoyed. What could be taking Lacus so long? Unless she met into trouble? At that thought, the frustration transformed to concern and anxiety. At that moment, the elevator door opened.
All anxiety vanished, and was replaced with wonder and amazement. Lacus was standing in the doorway, walking towards him. She had let her pink hair down, and they flowed past her shoulders and cascaded around her waist. She was wearing the pink singlet and somehow, her breasts were much bigger than from a few days back. Why is this so? Huh… I must ask her someday… The lavender skirt flowed to her knees, and it swirled around as she moved. Her lavender eyes shone with glee and her pink lips curled to a smile. With her pink hair bouncing as she walked towards Kira, it completed the picture of a very graceful girl.
Kira could only widen his eyes and let his jaw drop in shock as Lacus moved towards him.
"Now now, stop gaping like a lovestruck goldfish," chided Lacus.
"Goldfish? Definitely not. Lovestruck? Any guy would be with a hot chick like you walking around."
"Well, enough dawdling. We are already so late, so let's get going"
"No thanks to you"
"Do you think you would have such an eye feast," Lacus said gesturing to herself, "if I didn't' spend an hour getting ready?"
-------------------------------------------------
The ball was glamourous enough, all right. The ballroom has been decorated to such an extent that many people were admiring the decorations. There were balloons flying everywhere, bobbing around as people danced. There were two long tables set up at the side of the room and food was placed on them. There were a variety of food and drinks, but the most popular was the red wine that Principal Uzumi and ordered and allowed the pupils to drink. The pupils all cheered when they heard that they would be allowed to drink red wine for the night (as many are below 18 so they cannot drink alcohol yet).
The main event, however, was still the central area of the room, where all the dancers are. They were all enjoying the music emanating through the room and dancing to their hearts content.
Kira and Lacus went through the big double doors and were looking for the rest of them.
"Kira, I'm hungry" whined Lacus.
"All right, let's go grab some grub first."
So they went to the refreshments table and found Sai and Tolle there without any partners. Kira could not pass up the opportunity to laugh at them.
"Dudes, no partners?" laughed Kira.
"Shaddap and go away, bastard" replied Sai.
"Yea, go fuck your pink haired slut" said Tolle.
"What the hell? I demand an apology, right now!" said Kira angrily.
"Never mind, Kira, let's go" said Lacus in a soothing tone.
Of course Kira went with Lacus, but glared at Sai and Tolle first. Kira went to get the food while Lacus went to get the drinks. Kira was holding up two plates piled full with food and saw Lacus carrying two glasses of orange liquid walking towards him.
"Lacus, you can't be serious! We have to grab the opportunity and drink some red wine!"
"But my father has forbidden me to drink alcohol before the age of twenty."
"But the law says eighteen!"
"I know, my father is just well, you know, sorta strict"
"Come on, just once. No one would know…" pleaded Kira.
"All right. Once. Just once."
So Kira passed the two glasses of orange juice to Sai and Tolle, while Lacus went to get the red wine. After the food, Kira and Lacus easily found the others dancing away on the dance floor and went over to find them.
The music currently playing was a very slow tune, much to the dismay of Cagalli. She was wearing a totally bored look on her face.
"Oh man, this dance thingy is boring. Can we do something else?" asked Cagalli.
"Alright, let's go take a walk in the gardens" suggested Athrun.
So hand in hand, the two of them strolled off in the general direction of the gardens. In the meantime, Dearka and Miriallia have already danced to god knows where, so Kira and Lacus were left alone, where they started dancing.
The tune soon changed to a fast one, and Kira and Lacus were both dancing furiously.
-------------------------------------------------
In the gardens, Athrun and Cagalli were sitting on a wooden bench, talking about stuff in general. Soon Cagalli grew bored too, and she stopped Athrun mid-sentence with a kiss. At first, it was just a sweet innocent kiss. But it soon developed into a hot and furious kiss. Both of them were touching the other person, wanting more. Athrun moved his hands down Cagalli's back, feeling her shoulder blades, while Cagalli was ruffling his blue hair, intertwining her hands into his hair.
They soon broke apart and gasped for air. Cagalli soon went back for more, pressing her lips against Athrun's like she was going to eat him whole from the face. So they spent the whole night kissing.
-------------------------------------------------
Dearka and Miriallia were at the nearby arcade, smashing the different controls as they fought each other. Dearka had told Miriallia that he didn't like to dance, so they came here instead.
"Yes!" cried Miriallia as she pumped her fist in victory. "Dearka 0, Miriallia 10! Haha! You lose, Dearka!"
"All right, you win. But I would like some compensation."
Miriallia replied by kissing him, and they were soon kissing furiously. They were interrupted by someone tapping Dearka on the shoulder.
"Hey, can you two buzz off? This is an arcade, not a hotel room. If you wanna fuck, go somewhere else. We want to play here, you know?"
Dearka and Miriallia grew red with embarrassment and went off, ultra-fast.
-------------------------------------------------
Kira and Lacus' innocent dancing soon turned to something not so innocent. They were kissing and touching each other everywhere, while dancing at the same time.
"Oh no Kira, I need to go to the toilet!"
"All right, I will wait for you by the double doors."
"Okay. Cya."
So Lacus walked over to the toilet, and just as she was about to step inside, a masked man jumped out from the corner and pushed her onto the floor. Startled, Lacus tried to scream out but the masked man put a hand over her face. She started to struggle, but the man was just too strong for her. The man started to strip her with his right hand. Lacus could only open her eyes wide in fear and feel the tears streaming down her face. She could only see the purple hair and desperate need in his eyes.
-------------------------------------------------
Hmm… Lacus is taking a bit too long in the toilet. Thought Kira as he was sipping red wine at the doors. She should not be taking so long… Maybe I should go check it out and surprise her when she comes out! Yea… hehe! So Kira went off towards the direction of the toilet. When he turned the corner, he spotted something that made him run forward.
-------------------------------------------------
The man soon dragged Lacus off into a closet, leaving her pink top crumpled up on the floor. He started working his hands lower, touching places where no man has touched before… …
-------------------------------------------------
Kira ran forwards and picked up Lacus' pink top. Shit! Something must have happened! I must find Lacus! Taking a risk, he went into the female toilet, and found it totally empty. He went back to where he found Lacus' top and spotted a trail of liquid leading off somewhere. He started to follow it and found that it ended up in a closet which was wobbling more than it should.
-------------------------------------------------
The man has just taken off Lacus' white panties and was about to take off his pants, when the door of the closet suddenly opened. Kira saw what was happening before his eyes and he immediately blew into a rage. He saw a multi-coloured seed popping before his eyes and before he knew it, he gave the man a uppercut.
The force of the blow knocked the mask away and Kira saw that it was Yuuna. Feeling nothing but total rage, Kira began to pummel Yuuna with punches at his stomach. Yuuna was soon left lying on the floor, clutching at his stomach in pain. Kira was about to continue, when he got distracted by the sound of sobs. He spat at Yuuna's face and went over to Lacus.
Lacus was lying in a crumpled heap on the floor, sobbing. He began to pull Lacus' panties and skirt back, and helped her to wear her bra and her pink top. Lacus flinched at his touch, and tried to pull away, but Kira held her firmly. Noticing that she was shivering, he took off his coat and used it to cover her body.
His own tears falling, Kira began to carry Lacus bridal style, one hand behind her shoulders and one hand behind the knees, and ran to the infirmary, with Lacus' tears still dripping on the floor as he ran.
-------------------------------------------------
A/N: Yep, that's all for now. If you do not know which part is the storm, you are either a retarded moron or a moronic retard. Yea… and I just had to end on a sad note because I thought that it matched the tone at the end (and the title). And another 2k words chapter, so be happy about it, k?
