Chapter Four: Desicion

Himeno woke up from a nightmare and grabbed her blanket and looked around in the dark room. Turning her head she picked up the clock and it read two fifty-two a.m. She groaned and got out of bed and walked to the door. Opening it she walked out into the hallway, going down she went down the stairs and into the back yard. Waking up from her daze she looks left to right several times, confused she putted on her sandals and walked out in the night air. Deciding on the garden she walked through the garden with the path lights showing her the way. She saw a shadow on a bench down the winding path. Crouching, she hides behind a bush and studies her little prey before pouncing.

In 1..2..3..she jumped from the bush onto the shadowy figure and landed with a thump and a moan. Looking down she saw it was Hayate that was sitting on the bench. "Ha..Hayate! What are you doing so late at night?" blushing she lowered her head to hide her cheeks. "I would be saying the same to you!" he turned his head and rolled his eyes at her.

"Sheesh! You are such a klutz Himeno! You can't even tell your enemy from your allies!" he flicked a finger at her forehead. "Well! I'm sorry for being the klutz I am! But I can't help it now can I?" with that she flicked a finger at his forehead back.

With the silence they turned their backs against each other and gazed out. Himeno leans her head on his back and closes her eyes. thought "That damn Hayate! He makes me so damn mad! ARGH!" Still thinking on it she turns her head slightly and looks at his face.

"Hayate?"

"Hmm?"
"Do you really love me?" after saying the question he turns around and wraps his arms around her and brings her close to him.

She thought of pushing away these comforting hands but decided to let them hold her in a warm embrace. Seeing him nodding she sighs as if a heavy burden has come off her shoulders, Hayate's finger lifted her chin and she was now staring straight into his eyes and he gave a look of trust and respect. "Do you love me Himeno?" he asked.

"Y..Yes, I do."

"Good. Then I love you too."

Just as he was about to bring his lips down unto hers, a big shake caused them to come back to the reality. The big shake, barely lasting a few seconds, stopped and stilled the world. As the shaking stopped Kei came flying down.

"Thank goodness you guys are alright?" landing he walked toward them. "You guys we have major trouble in Leafenia! Most of the leaf are gone!" yelling Hayate and Himeno turned and looked at the portal to the other realm. Looking at each other they nodded and Himeno and Hayate prêted. Himeno flew into the portal and Kei followed soon after.

As they flew over Leafenia they saw that the land was mostly covered in rotting decaying trees, water and animals. Hoping to save some of the land, Himeno released some leaf to the living part and putted up a barrier. "That should hold it out till we figure out what's going and how the place got so bad!" flying toward the portal Hayate spoke."Himeno."

"Yeah?"

"We have to first know how it started and began."

Nodding she answered, "Yeah I know."

As soon as they got through the portal Himeno unpreted and Himeno started to fall from giving too much leaf at once. "Himeno!" Hayate reached and caught her and rocked her like a doll. Lifting her he carried her back to the main house and he turned his head toward Kei. "Kei, do you know how it started and when?"

"Not really but I do have a hunch about this. I'll look into it more thoroughly and tell you anything I find helpful." And flew off.

"Thanks." Hayate walked up the stairs and into Himeno's room and set her down on her bed. He took off her shoes and pulled the cover up and tucked her in. She fidgeted and opened her eyes into Hayate's face. "Hayate?"

"Yeah?" sat on the edge of the bed.

"Stay with me tonight." She whispered and pushed her self up and wrapped her arms around him. And they fell to bed and fell fast asleep together in their own thoughts of happiness.

Next Morning

"Hmm?" Rubbing her eyes she got up and stared at the clock. "Oh my gosh! I'm going to be late again!" Flinging the blanket aside she ran to the bathroom and came out brushing her teeth. While she was brushing and looking for clothes, Hayate looked up from the bed. "Why are you so loud in the morning?"

Looking up from the closet half dressed she said, "Well maybe because I have school in about lets say thirty minutes?" Turning her head she started looking for her skirt. After finding what she was looking for she ran back to the bathroom and started brushing her hair. After finding her hair clips she grabbed her bags and bolted out of the room toward the dining hall. Getting up he walked over toward the door and leaned against one of them and smiled down the hall. "That crazy girl."

Rushing to the table she grabbed bread and a bottle of milk. "Sorry! I'll see you after school?" Running down the steps she races toward the gate. Chewing and gulping down milk and bread she races toward the school gate to make it on time. (DING! DONG!) The bell rang and Himeno races in a frenzy toward the gate. As she got in class just as the teacher arrived she sat in her chair and waited for school to begin. Talking hushed as the teacher banged on the desk with his book. "Listen up students! We have a new student and she came all the way from England! So please make her feel comfortable and welcome to our school."

"Yes, teacher!"

Moving his right hand toward the entrance of the room enters a girl with long flowing brown hair and deep hazelnut eyes. Walking so gracefully and skin as light as peaches. And ones beauty that surpasses ones own. Facing the students she bows and looks up, spotting Himeno she flinches but regains control. "Hello! My name is Yuhii Janho, I hope I can be good friends with you all." She walked toward the seat the teacher gave her and sat right next to Himeno.

During break Yuhii walked over toward Himeno and Yayoi and introduced her self. "Hello I'm Yuhii. Nice to meet you."

"Hi! I'm Himeno and this is Yayoi. So…I heard that you came from England?"

"Yes I did." Answering she saw a man with blue hair and blue eyes by the door of the classroom. Himeno spotted Hayate and walked over and greeted him with people staring at them with a snicker and a glare.

"Hey Hayate, what are you doing here at school?...Don't tell me that they sent you here?" glaring at him she points a finger at his chest and pushes hard.

"Ehh! Tetete! That hurts you bozo! And nobody sent me here! I sent myself!"

"Really?" suspiciously she eyed him.

"Yes!"

She smiles and hugged him. Tugging toward Yayoi and Yuhii, Hayate felt a tingle ripple throughout his entire body. Stopping he grabbed Himeno and stopped halfway. "What's wrong Hayate?" Quietly he brings his mouth to her ears. "I feel strange, there's something here that's not right."

"Like what?" tense with anxiety she looks around the room in search of the strangeness. But nothing in the class room looked strange to her. Standing up straight she holds him close. "Just try to act normal and we will find out later." Over by Yuhii and Yayoi, Yayoi whispers to Yuhii, "They look so good together don't they?" Still staring at the couple Yuhii smiles and answers, "Yes, they do…"

But instead Hayate stops grabs Himenos arm and drags her instead Himeno dragging him.

"Hayate! Where in the hell are we going?" tugging on his shirt he drags her off toward the school gate when the school bell rang. "I still have school you know!" yelling at his ear he grabs her arms and kisses her on the mouth hard. Releasing her he looks at her face and pushes away strands of her hair. "We're going to the portal!" Lifting her he flies over the gate and toward the Awayuki mansion. Passing by the front yard and then the fountain roses, Hayate slowing comes to a land in front of the portal. "Come hurry! We have to get to Leafenia before its too late!"

Tugging at her wrist she got free of Hayate's grip and stepped back, "What do you think your doing Hayate?" moving back she tapped against pole. Rubbing her wrist she looked at him and yelled, "Why are you so much in a rush? I just putted up a barrier only a week ago!"

"Yeah?"

"YEAH!"

"Well think again princess!" reaching for her hand she moved but on the second try he caught her arm and dragged her through the portal and took her to where the leaf still were barely surviving. Looking in shock and dismay she walked around and caught a look at what was happening to Leafenia and touched a large dead oak tree and leaned against it. "What in the world is going on here?" speaking quietly she moved around to explore the surroundings. "I..I just putted up a barrier a week ago! A WEEK AGO! How can this happen? Who and what is doing this? Could it be a new Princess of Disaster? But I thought only previous pretear's, on the dark side, can become Princess of Disaster! A new villain or evil lurking behind the scene's while we work? But how can something this strong exist?" crouching she huddles up and covers her face and cries and tears drip down her face leaving a puddle of tears on the ground. Hayate moves in and kneels beside her and wraps his arms around her and cradles her. Lifting her, he carried her toward the portal but on the way he noticed a strange mark on one of the trees. The shape looked like a star but without getting a better look he decided to study it after dropping Himeno off on the other side.

Weary of what lurks right on them is a shadow of a mysterious figure behind one of the trees and bright glint bounce off and a star shows on the medallion. "Those stupid fools, they can't even see a queen when they see one! AHAHAHA! At this rate I'll take over the world then the universe! Those knights and their precious prêtear will all suffer under my hands of wrath!"
