This story is based on the third installment of the manga of Pre'tear. It gives you a closer look at Himeno and Hayate's thinking during the time. It's mostly Himeno's feelings. The time line follows the third manga all the way up to the end.

The Nightmare Garden
That night Himeno dreamt about a large lush garden with all kinds of flowers and breathtaking fountains like none she had ever seen before. The Princess followed a small creek, which lead to a water fall. The cool clear water felt so nice on bare feet the Princess could not help but smile about this. Himeno set up a picnic by the waterfall quietly humming to her self. She knew she was supposed to meet some one she cared for however; she could not remember who it was. Himeno sat by the water fall until the sunset waiting for that special person to arrive sadly no one came. "What makes you think that some one cares for you?" An unseen voice called out into the distance. "Who is there?" The Pre'tear called out. "There is nothing special about you. Why would any one want to love you, especially him?" The voice sang out. 'Him? Who do they mean?' Himeno thought. Memories of her Knights flashed into her mind but one person in particular appeared the most. It was Hayate. "Hayate? Why would I care if Hayate loved me or not? I mean I would like it if we were friends but I wish to be friends with all of the Knights." said the Pre'tear. This made the voice laugh not just a normal laugh but a laugh that made Himeno's blood freeze. She screamed out as loud as she could, and with that she woke up covered in sweat and crying.
Himeno quietly made her way down to the kitchen and made herself a cup of tea to calm her nerves. Unknown to her there was someone watching over her every move that night. However since Himeno's nerves were so frazzled over the dream that she was having she did not even notice the person hiding in the shadows. Himeno sat in the kitchen for a while reflecting on the dream, then returned to her room tea in hand. A man with long dark hair stepped out of the shadows when the coast was clear and muttered the name of his Princess, "Himeno". He watched the young girl go back to her bed and fall asleep. As soon as he knew she was asleep he walked up to her bed and kneeled down so he could whisper into her ear, "I'm sorry I was so harsh on you today, my Princess." Himeno gave a sweet smile as she slept. This made the man's heart race. He held his hands to his heart and left the room of his Princess.
The next day Himeno ran out of her class right in the middle of her English exam because of a Demon Larva. Mayune caught wind of this. "I must tell mother." She mumbled as she snuck to a telephone. By the time Himeno destroyed the demon larva class had long since ended so Himeno started to walk the long walk home. Once Himeno got home she was confronted by her step mother about cutting class. Once again Himeno was grounded and sent straight to her room. Shortly after Himeno walked into her room she ran straight to her bed and began to weep. 'I wonder why I am even here. All I do is get in everyone's way.' Himeno remained there and hugged her pillow. When all of a sudden there was a knock to the door it was Himeno's maid. "Miss Himeno, I brought you dinner." The maid said as she wheeled in a cart carrying the food. The Pre'tear thought to herself "Food doesn't taste good when you are eating it all by yourself. I don't want to be alone right now.'
