Years and years,
I'm still waiting here.
I don't know how long I've been here,
But what important to me that
You'll keep your promise.
-The Flower Princess
I've been battling out so many years,
I'm desperate to see you again.
Even if I tried so hard to fulfill my promise,
All I think is you.
-The Prince
It was such a beautiful day as the birds were chirping so happily and it enlightens everyone's heart. The sky was getting bluer and bluer that also set on a good mood for all the people who adored the nature very much.
In Tsukiya Hana School, the students are getting too busy preparing differently decorations around to their classrooms at the courtyard. Some of them are practicing or discussing of this year's culture play that they want to perform. Yet some of the others are doing the carpeting for their stalls.
In our main heroine's classroom, the whole class and their homeroom teacher called Ichigo Migaya, were discussing about their class' performances for this year School's Cultural Festival. It was their favorite even of the year that the students loved to do and excited for their classes' activities.
"So in other words our class will perform a Play." Migaya announced.
Everyone got too thrilled and excited at the Play. This were their most favorite activity of the school Cultural Festival, it also determines for the audience to get a chance to see how well their acting skills to the event's play. Of course it also determines how they are fitted in their role to the play too. Migaya settles them down, which made them to pipe down.
"This class, we will do a medieval play of romance and tragic story called, 'Moonflower Legend.'" She added.
As their teacher announced the title of the Play that they were going to perform for their class. Everyone got surprised on that story, as they knew it very well. They began on chatting on how great, exciting and romantic the story it was for them. While Takuya, Kouji and Kouichi went as pale as a white sheet of paper hearing the title of the story.
"Okay since I know few of you class had never heard of this story. Let me tell you that Moonflower Legend was written of a young nobleman who believed of the Moonflower's origin. This story's about a young princess named PrincessLuna have gone all the hardship on her love between her two best friends princes. Who both of them are in love to her." Migaya explained.
"Why does the story look familiar to me?" Izumi whispered.
"So sensei who is going to be the main roles?" the girl asked.
The blackish raven-haired woman gave out a sinister smile that was showing on her lips, which made her students to backed out, with vertical lines across their faces added with few sweat-drops were rolling down above their heads. Their teacher is in her scary mode that they are most afraid of. So beware of her sinister smile. For a while she was already back to her normal mode that the class were relieved to it.
"Don't worry I've already put your assign role everyone." She said, "For the main Princess Luna will be role play by… ORIMOTO IZUMI!"
"Eh?" Izumi got shocked, "Demo nande atashi wa?"
"Your kindness and the look are fitted well for PrincessLuna that's why you're suitable." Migaya answered.
Izumi was still shocked at Migaya's announcement; she can't believe to herself that this was happening to her. Not to mention that she got the main heroine role of the story she was given for her. It was a dream for every girl to have the main heroine role; this was a lucky day for the blonde haired girl. The teacher continued on telling her class' roles.
"As for the three main princes will be… Kanbara Takuya will be Prince Astral, Minamoto Kouji will play Prince Kenn, and Kimura Kouichi will be Prince John." She announced again.
"WHAT?" the girls screamed.
The homeroom teacher gave out a small sighs with the smile that was still sticking on her lips. She just knew it would surprise and upset the girls that the three new boys also got the main prince role of the story. But not only the girls also the boys who were all surprised to the announcement of the lucky students who get to role play with someone.
"I know you're all wondering why I choose them for the main prince role. I just have thought those three fits well enough for Orimoto-san." She answered then her surrounding turns scary, "If you have any problem I would suggest you to go out and…"
"NO! NO! We agree with you, sensei. We're not complaining." They said.
"She's right. Sensei's the best one on choosing a perfect person." Another one answered.
"That's great… then I'll continue to tell your role." She said.
Migaya-sensei continued on telling her students' role one by one. Some of them got the supportive roles while some will do the minor or the extra character of the story and some will do the stagehand. Some of them were too proud to have the role or things that they all loved, Izumi took a breath relieving that everything's all right. As for Takuya, Kouji and Kouichi, they all looked serious that everyone didn't noticed.
-In Takuya's Place
"IT'S FATE GUYS! I'M TELLING YOU IT'S NOT A COINCIDENCE!" Takuya's voice exclaimed.
"For the last time, Takuya, it was Migaya-sensei's who have set up this role play." Kouichi told him.
"Also there are good explanations why we're chosen." Said Kouji.
"Why is it them?" the brunette lad asked.
"He means we're chosen by our looks and personality that's why." Answered the elder twin in chibi.
Takuya fell down from his seat in anime style with a large sweat-drop appearing above his head. Kouji stared at his twin brother with dotted eyes and a large vein popping stared to appear on his temple. Then Kouichi stared both at them confusedly at their actions yet the bandana head lad could only sighs.
"But then it was strange ne?" he said.
"Yes… first was that portrait, second her familiar actions, and the role play for our school's Cultural Festival." Takuya admitted.
"Things are getting out of the hat." Kouji muttered.
"Yeah…" Kouichi agreed.
While the boys are talking seriously, to where Izumi was in Tsuki Hana Apartment, she was busily herself studying her lines in the script that Migaya-sensei has given it from their discussions. She was having a hard time to understand what feelings in the lines that her role Princess Moon would say.
"Huu… This is harder than I thought. I know this role is very important so I have to concentrate well. Everyone's depending on me… I mean us main role of the play." She said.
-Flash back
"Since Orimoto-san, Kanbara-san, Minamoto-san and Kimura-san had the major role, we are all depending on you guys." Migaya told them.
"She's right you guys have the bigger role. We all know you can do it!" the boys support Migaya's words.
Then her classmates started to supports on telling Izumi and the boys to do their best for the play. The blonde haired girl was beginning to feel tense seeing most of her classmates started on keep telling her. Until…
"Alright I'll do my best!" she exclaimed so excitedly with stars around her.
"I think they're pressuring Izumi." Kouichi whispered Takuya.
"Yeah…" answered the brunette lad.
-End of Flash back
Izumi's eyes suddenly verted with few veins popping starting to appear above her head after she recall back from her classroom. She was about to explode but she didn't instead she plop herself in her couch just to clam her down.
"Really why things happen like that?" she whispered. "But at least I've got a great role… A romance of a young princess to her two friends, huh?"
The blonde haired girl began to sink down in deep thoughts thinking about the play suddenly the image of two young princes wearing an ancient kimono. They looked so familiar for Izumi except she could not see their faces so clearly as it was blocked by the darkness. Then she got shocked as she was about to see more to the mysterious princes but she suddenly fell down unconsciously.
"Wha— That was weird, yet what that's about?" she wondered.
-Next day
Izumi and Takuya were standing across at each other's sight. The brunette lad had a sad expression that was on his face, while the blonde haired beauty had both of her hands held together against her chest with a happy expression.
"At least now I'm not alone anymore for I have you as my most precious friend." She said.
Takuya was shocked at her words yet he was only shocked when he was staring at Izumi's beautiful pose. He simply could not take his eyes off seeing at her beautiful face, but he was loss at words, as she could not say the exact words to describe her. Then his hand started to reach out for her.
"Izumi-chan, I…" he said.
"CUT!" someone yelled.
"Dame da yo, Kanbara-san. Izumi-san is Princess Luna you should call her role's name. Man…" the girl told him.
"Sorry…" Takuya muttered.
"It's alright, Takuya-kun, you've almost had it all." Izumi encourage him.
"True but the only problem is calling the play's name." Kouji answered.
"HEY!" the brunette lad exclaimed.
The two lads began to argue once again in front of their classmates. Everyone stared at them with dotted eyes and major sweat-drop rolling above their heads. Izumi had her left hand placing over her face with few veins popping. Then Kouichi stared at both Takuya and Kouji amusing at them also a majority sweat-drop.
"They might end up fighting with bruises." Kouichi commented.
"Yeah and Migaya would not really like it." Izumi agreed.
"Anou…"
Izumi was about to ask the short blackish blue haired lad again, yet she didn't as she saw Kouichi's face turned as pale as white as a blank sheet of paper. Kouichi also had his mouth opened very wide or you might say it was really long. The blonde haired girl stared at him curiously, she wondered what made him looked so pale. She turned her head staring at the same direction where Kouichi was looking at. Then she also got pale too. Guess who? Migaya sensei who was now fuming into anger.
"Oh… this isn't good…" Izumi whispered.
The others are about to tell Kouji and Takuya to stop arguing and remind them that their worst teacher has arrived back. But it was already too late for them to stop the two arguing boys as Migaya was already heading to Takuya and Kouji. The duo teen lads stopped arguing and felt something was heating up the atmosphere.
"Hey why does it feels hot in here?" Takuya asked,
"Umm.. Takuya." Kouji whispered while tapping at the brunette lad's shoulder.
Takuya turned his head to the silent and cold long blackish blue haired. Kouji was pointing at his life side with an irritated look yet his expression looks scared. The brunette lad had three or four question marks appearing above his head.
"What's with you, Kouji? Cat got your tongue?" joked the brunette lad as he turned his head.
As the brunette lad looked as he follows the same direction that Kouji was pointing at it with a smile. But then his smile faded and his expression turned into a frightening look. Oh yes, he was frightening seeing Migaya's return. Except what frighten his pants off was her scary look.
"Hi… Migaya-sensei, you're… back so soon." Said the young lad.
"If you two don't stop arguing and focus on your practice… I PROMISE THAT I WILL SEND YOU BOTH TO YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE!" she yelled at them.
"We get it now, Migaya-sensei." Answered the blackish blue haired lad calmly.
"Just please don't do THAT!" pleaded the brunette lad.
Everybody were staring at Migaya-sensei yelling or(maybe I should put) scolding at Takuya and Kouji very sacredly seeing the evil side of their teacher. Before their teacher was about to continue on doing something drastic she was up to for the poor two important boys, Kouichi and Izumi manage to pull out Migaya's sadistic mode. That's right the most terrifying one that they should not mess up with her, even if it's a small part. Everyone must be very aware of that mode.
"If you do that, Migaya-sensei then who will be the Prince Astral and Prince Kenn?" Izumi reason out.
"Oh that's right without them, the play would be cancel." Said Migaya. "I won't let that happen to it too!"
"Phew!" the classmates whispered.
"However… if one of you don't practice this play seriously. You all know well what'll happen to you, ne?" she continued
Her students gave out another frightening look, as they all knew very well what Migaya-sensei was talking about. Their thoughts clouded on their minds, imagining what scary thing or torture will she going to do her unserious practicing for their play. They all nodded their heads violently which hurts hard enough on their necks. Migaya smiled happily seeing her students understand and got everything under control(and I know one scary teacher I used to know back there).
"Well then shall we continue on practicing?" she asks them.
"HAI!" they exclaimed.
Izumi and Kouichi stared at everyone's fast reaction and their so-called serious practicing on their role's lines. Both of them had vertical lines under their skin and few tiny sweat-drops starting to appear on their heads.
"Those guys really don't want to end their lives…" Izumi whispered.
"Migaya-sensei sure reminds me someone I know back then." Kouichi told his mind.
"YOU TWO ORIMOTO-SAN, KIMURA-SAN! WE'LL START OF AGAIN ON PRINCE KENN ABOUT TO CONFESS HIS LOVE TO PRINCESS LUNA!" their classmates ordered.
"Okay already, sheesh!"
The blonde haired girl was about to piss of completely but she did not show it in front of everyone as she remembers Migaya-sensei was also there to watch the rehearsing(and you all know why). So she did not dare to show it and she kept it inside.
"Alright so how is it again?" she asked nervously.
-Later on
"Ahh I'm bushed!" Izumi whispered
The popular blonde haired girl was plumping herself on the rooftop of the school's. For a little while she felt a cold wind greeting to Izumi. The wind made her feel so ease and relaxed a little as it almost drifted off to sleep. Her eyes are starting to close down a little, until it drifted off to sleep.
"IZUMI! The guys need you to be back!"
Kouichi had appeared behind the door, he was carrying along a big box, which looks very heavy for him to carrying it alone. As the short haired
"Strange… I swore I've saw her coming in this place." He whispered
The shorthaired lad was about to leave the place then the wind suddenly blew past from him, which made the lad to stop. He turned behind his back but he saw no one was there. Only the wind's ease breeze was there.
"I thought I heard a familiar voice somewhere before." Said Kouichi, "I wonder who might be?"
"NH!"
Kouichi suddenly backend out as he heard a sudden voice out of nowhere this made him feel nervous this time. He was about to leave right now yet for somehow he just heard clearly that something's telling him he must not leave the place now. This made him curious on what the wind is trying to tell him. He put down the box and looked around in the rooftop. Then he found the blonde haired girl who was sleeping so peacefully and beautiful. Kouichi felt the heat was increasing up, which made his face goes red like a tomato, as he had saw Izumi's beauty sleep. And he shook his head mentally so roughly.
"Ahh! Don't think something pervert!" he said in his mind.
After shaking off his own thoughts, he managed to calm down a little as his own thoughts were cleared away. Yet he still had the crimson shade on his face as he looked at the sleeping blonde haired girl. To his amazement, he was too stunned seeing at Izumi's beauty in her sleep. He was too amazed seeing her beauty in such peaceful sleep that he had ever seen in a girl's sleep.
"Why am I feeling that way?" he wondered himself
When Kouichi looked back at the sleeping beauty, he could also feel his own heart was beating faster and faster as his heart was about to explode anytime. He could not help himself staring admiringly at her beauty. Without realizing that he was leaning to Izumi closer and closer until…
"KOUICHI! IZUMI-CHAN! DOKO NI IRU DESU KA?" Takuya's voice louder out.
The shorthaired lad got shocked hearing Takuya's loud mouth that was heard very clearly and loud enough. Then he just realized to himself that his face was about five centimeters away from Izumi's face. This made him blushed much deeper as he realized that he was doing something unthinkable. Also this causes to wake Izumi's sleep. Kouichi was panicking then he positioned himself sitting next to Izumi and pretended himself that nothing happen.
"Oh hi there Kouichi-kun. How d'you got here?" she asked him.
"Just awhile ago." Kouichi answered.
"Man… I wonder where they are?" Takuya's voice wondered.
Takuya was already on the rooftop, he was scratching behind his head using his right arm. The lad was sweating a little. He looked around the place until he saw Kouichi and Izumi finally.
"Hey Takuya-kun." Izumi greeted.
"Finally I've found you both. You'd better get down now guys. Break's over." He informed, "By the way, what're you doing?"
"I guess I fell asleep… For Kouichi-kun I just saw him sitting next to me when I woke up." She answered.
"WHAT? You didn't do anything pervy did you, Kouichi?" the brunette asked.
"NO WAY! I'M NOT THAT PERVERT LIKE YOU!" Kouichi yelled while blushing madly in chibi size.
"Oi, oi! It doesn't mean he did 'that'." The blonde corrected.
"Oh… sorry 'bout that."
Kouichi felt relieved that Izumi saved his butt this time from some misunderstanding that Takuya might have thought. At least the brunette lad did mistaken when the blonde beauty explained to him clearly.
"Anyway better get down now or you know what'll happen if Migaya-sensei noticed we're not here." Said the brunette lad with a pain look.
Of course as Takuya mentioned Migaya's name, Izumi and Kouichi's faces began to feel as pale as white with vertical lines were showing on their faces. Yep, they know well of their teacher's quick reaction once she notice of their missing attendance on their classroom. They could imagine how scary she looks and how she'll do to their classmates. And Takuya could see the looks of their faces and he barely read their minds.
"Come on guys…" he said,
"Yeah…coming." Izumi whispered.
Izumi goes back first very fast without noticing that she bumped right to the door that Takuya forgot to close there when he got in. Takuya and Kouichi stared at the blonde haired beauty with sweat-drop. The blonde beauty continues walking her way back to the classroom while she was muttering few curses of the door that they could hear it clearly.
"Tell me Kouichi you didn't do something monkey?" Takuya asked him.
The short blackish blue haired lad gasped as his hair were shadowing over his eyes. He was speechless at what Takuya said to him. Then few veins popping were starting to appear above his head while staring at the brunette lad angrily. And Takuya looked at Kouichi's expression confusedly with a sweat-drop above his head.
"I'M NOT THAT PERVERT LIKE I'VE ALREADY TOLD YOU!" Kouichi yelled at Takuya.
"Okay, okay! But can you tell me why you appear when Izumi-chan's asleep?" he asked him.
"That's because I was also trying to find Izumi and I ended up here. I was about to leave until I heard a mysterious voice within the wind." The shorthaired lad explained.
"? 'Mysterious voice within the wind,' you say?" the brunette lad repeated.
"Yeah and the voice sounds awfully familiar to me. It sounds like a girl was trying to tell something important or that may sound like." Kouichi answered.
The way that Kouichi have spoken to his answers, Takuya felt uneasy the way he describe to it. It doesn't feels right for him. Hearing a voice in the wind? Was it really a joke for the elder twin or was he really serious to that? The brunette lad looked at Kouichi, to his expressions, he could tell that the elder twin is really serious to what he had just told him.
"I see… but that can't be right isn't, Kouichi?" said Takuya seriously. "Was it another imagination?"
"Yes but sometimes imagination can be real unless you also hears or sees the exact one that I've encounter." Kouichi answered back, "It may happen to you soon."
The brunette lad gave out a small smirk, "Let's see about that Kouichi." He said, "Speaking of it, we better get down soon or you know what might happen again."
Kouichi gasped again except this time he was terrified again at the words that Takuya had mentioned the 'it' again. Then he dashed out quickly and headed back to the classroom very fast leaving the box alone to the brunette lad. And Takuya stared at his pal in a cute chibi form in a surprise expression.
"Well… I might head back also…" he said.
As Takuya took some small steps towards to the door while carrying the box that Kouichi have forgotten it. The wind suddenly past through the brunette lad, his expression changed as he looked surprise feeling the wind's cold breeze. He looked around but he saw no one.
"It was… true then. Kouichi was really serious." He whispered.
Takuya left standing next to the door motionless still on his surprise expression that was on his face. Then the wind's breeze appeared again continuing blowing against the atmosphere.
Far away from Tsukiya Hana School in the two apartments, there stood a young boy who looks about in age of fourteen. He was wearing a cap over his head, which hides his face. He was staring at the map and the two apartments that he was standing right in front of him.
"This must be it." He whispered, "This is the place where 'he' lives."
