Episode 05: Hot Spring!

The college students walked up the long stairs heading towards the Hot Spring Inn that they had been planning to go to for ages. A sweat drop formed on Aino's head and more formed on the others head when they found out that Himeno was already on top. She was hyper as always and wasn't tired like everyone else. Her muscles were too strong!

"Woeh…" Krad reacted and glared towards Dark, "She's energetic today!" Dark harrumphed and walked faster. Smoke began to appear under his sport shoes. He felt like he was being challenged by Himeno, indicated by Krad's crooked, unchanged and unpleasant expression. More sweat drops formed behind Daisuke and Satoshi's head. Yes, the Middle High School tagged along too but only the ones chosen, apparently they were lucky.

Himeno blinked when Dark was already at the top standing in front of her. He was puffing deeply and his eyes were scary. Himeno raised an eyebrow, "What are you doing running like a kid?" A vein popped out from Dark's temple as black vertical lines formed above of his head. "Is this your first trip?" Himeno began to look evil with long cat ears popping out from her head and started laughing hysterically soon afterwards, taking it as a very funny thought.

"Yosh!" The third one reached the top and they saw smiling, shinny, trilled Ryouma. A sweat drop formed between Dark and Himeno. Ryouma was a bit strange; no human could reach the top that fast. The others were still at the bottom half of the stairs. Ryouma started running in chibi, "So what are we waiting for?"

"I have been wondering since the day I joined the college," Krad's voice rose, "Who is that annoying pest?" Aino's eyes transformed into irritated slits, she was bothered with him so much that she could throw him off the mountain but she just sighed, unlike Himeno, she doesn't have 'super natural' powers. Krad was talking about her friend there. Yutaro Ryouma, the cleverest, cutest student in the college. Frankly speaking, she used to 'adore' him too but when she got close to him, deep inside Ryoma wasn't really fun for her.

"Yutaro Ryouma," Aino replied at last, "He is one of the richest student in our college but his intelligence is another thing to talk about." Aino was already tired, why does she have to tell the guy she despises? If it wasn't because he 'was' once 'a part' of Satoshi, she would just have to think of him as Satoshi's older brother.

Krad looked at Ryouma in the distance, as he was talking vigorously to Himeno, his eyes were narrowed and had am eerie feeling about the guy. "I don't like this guy…" He said out loud. Even though he was looking at a normal human being, Ryouma looked like as if he shone. He was different from the others. "We should be careful about him…" He warned Aino but she was nowhere in sight, she was already at the top holding Dark's arm tightly in happiness with blushes on her cheek. "You weren't even listening…" He talked to his classmates about 'Aino' instead.

--

Risa opened the bedroom window wide whom she shared with Riku, Aino and Himeno. She enjoyed the wind breezing at her and smiled, "I haven't been here for a while…" She transformed into chibi, holding her palms together with her eyes sparkling, "I can't believe I am in the same inn as Dark-san!" Her cheeks became red when she began to imagine she was with Dark in the spring, "Aaa… This is the life…" She was drooling.

Himeno had irritated eyes from where she was laying on the floor, "Stop drooling! Since you like him, why don't you share a room with him?" Risa started to swirl around in embarrassment. She was irritated, even though it had been 2 years, Risa still 'loves' Dark. What does she see in Dark to begin with? She blushed. What was she thinking? She loves that perverted guy too. What does she see in him too? She doesn't even know. She began to smile innocently and alone. Could be about his charms, cuteness and over protective nature… Everyone looked at her, although it was just 'a' smile, Himeno looked like she was smiling in craziness.

Himeno flinched and looked up. The twins began to worry, "What's the matter, Himeno-san?" She stood up immediately with her eyes wide. The girls were a bit scared of her reaction. Without wasting time, she jumped out of the window and made them confused. She peeked in again with an innocent smile, "Tell Ryouma that I am not here, okay? Okay!" She vanished, literally flying to the top of the roof. The girls shared the same sweat drop, what was she scared of anyway? Ryouma wasn't there…

"Himeno-san! I have something to-!" Ryouma opened the moving horizontal door unexpectedly and all eyes grew wide. "Where's Himeno-san?" They didn't reply; they were still surprised. They shook their heads left and right and a tall, huge figure stood behind him that the girls shared the same sweat drop. Dark quickly grabbed onto Ryouma's neck and began choking him in chibi, violently.

"I told you not to leave the room and stop disturbing Himeno!" He might have been influence with Himeno's techniques because Ryouma was being beaten up. Ryouma was whining, hurt, crying and he complained. "You are supposed to watch over our stuff while Krad, Daisuke and Satoshi aren't inside." More heavy tears stream down his cheeks, as a weakling.

Riku stood up with her hands on her hips, "Dark-san, you shouldn't bully the weak!" Dark stilled and both of the boys looked up at her. She looked like a 'mother figure' while the other girls saw a mother scolding and preaching at two small boys. She was enraged; she despises those who bullied the weak. She crossed her arms over her chest and Dark had a sweat drop when she looked way more dangerous than the bats, "So back off, Dark-san before I do something."

Dark smirked innocently and dropped Ryouma on the ground, "What ever you say, sweetie." He smiled like a 10 year old kid while Ryouma was still crying, hurt. A sweat drop formed on Dark's head, Riku was way dangerous than Himeno. Risa was better compared to her.

Ryouma revived and started having light balls of tears in the corners of his eyes while holding a red rose, "Oh where art thou my love?" Everyone could see him shining, and he moved around with a spotlight on him coming from the ceiling, "Oh you must be 'desperate for my love' for being away from the great Ryouma…" He began to recite poetry that made no sense and luckily he stopped when Aino threw at him the small table right on his face.

"Shut up!" A bolded vein popped out from her temple. That was actually her first time 'hitting' Ryouma. Risa and Riku shared the same sweat drop. Finally Aino was getting to show her real self other than the perverting and fulltime crazy over men person. "Himeno is outside if you need her," She looked out the window and immediately Ryouma ran out childishly in chibi.

"Himeno-san, here I come! I will confess everything today!" He was excited and looking forward to tell and see Himeno. Dark saw him walk out and felt strange, not because of Ryouma but the thing Ryouma had for Himeno. Ryouma deserve Himeno instead of him. He is just an art created by the 'Hikari', he doesn't deserve anyone. He left the room depressed.

Himeno was flying through the sky and landed on the inn's roof, she wanted so much to be away and alone from Ryouma. Between Ryouma and all the other men; he was not a guy she would spend time with all her life. Ryouma is a great guy, she doesn't deny it but he was too persistent and doesn't give up. Her ideal man? Well honestly ever since Dark came to her life, she realized that she liked strong and laid back men, not sure why she does but she knows that Dark would always be the man for her. She sighed and looked at the sunset that will be gone in a few minutes time.

"Heh… I didn't expect you here!" She snapped and spun around. Her eyes narrowed right after she saw the white wings of Krad. Why was Krad there to begin with? At least, it was better than with Ryouma. She sat down on the roof and enjoyed the pretty orange sunset. Krad's eyes were set on her. Honestly, Krad did have feelings towards this 'unfeminine' one because she was a Guardian. He wanted to have a Guardian of his own too. Being with someone who would protect you with all her heart and at the same time protecting her was very... intriguing. Himeno wasn't like any other 'ladies' that he knew. He pondered; actually Aino might be Himeno's mirror image sometimes. He began to smirk.

"I don't know what you mean…" Krad's eyes narrowed as he looked at her. He had almost forgotten that Himeno had this ability in reading minds. "Aino might be like me. Hot-tempered, pig-headed.." Somehow, she did admit it, "And even different from any other girls around. However…" Her eyes became dead serious; the sun had already set, "compared to me, her life is very complicated. She became like that because she wanted to hide everything that is 'her'… that shows the real her…" Krad listened. "I, on the other hand, have to be like this because I am a guardian. And so you see me... the girl who is... 'Unfeminine'." That word was difficult to say.

Aino was happy-go-lucky and somehow she managed to cope with the things that go wrong in her life. He never met her parents before nor did he know any of her siblings. He did hear she said something about an isolated mansion, it was similar to Satoshi's, for being a wealthy child, it was obvious but what problem does Aino have? She's pretty, talented and even clever… well in some circumstances. Satoshi didn't even say anything.

"Aino's parents main objective is only work and money," Himeno moved her legs on the roof, feeling sorry for her only friend, "They almost never meet each other and almost forgot that they actually 'owned' a 'daughter'." The Shirono family is very wealthy, related through blood of the Hikari, and both husband and wife, at least they are supposed to be, owned many companies around the world. "Aino had been deserted since she can remember. If it wasn't for Satoshi taking her in, she would become insane living with only the cold-hearted maids in the mansion." Young version Aino stood inside the huge room with a brown teddy bear in her arms looking pale and the door was shut tight. She could only hear 'silence' around.

Krad understood more about this Shirono Aino. Yes, barely any of the guys in the class like her but even if she loves flirting and dating, she hasn't gone with anyone, no matter how handsome they are. Krad had irritated eyes, at the moment; her eyes are set on Dark Mousy almost all the time. Himeno began to giggle, "If her eyes are on Dark it means that her eyes are also on you, Krad." His eyes glared at her with a 'what-the-hell-are-you-talking-about' face. "I told you, you 'are' the twin brother of Dark and you two looked exactly the same... well almost, hair color as an exception." Krad's eyes were wide and looked at her with the first shocking expression ever seen by Himeno. Flushes began to appear on his cheeks.

Himeno smiled innocently and playfully, Krad and Aino deserved each other compared to her and Dark. To Himeno, Rika was still her priority and she will not take Dark from her, even though she insisted. There were shed of tears in the corner of her eyes, she needed to show more 'hate' towards Dark.

Himeno walked outside the inn, absorbing the pretty shiny stars in the sky and shrieked, almost jumped, after she saw Ryouma catching sight of her. She turned in a jolt and had a crooked look. She shouldn't have left the 'roof'. Her eyes were irritated and she wanted to step back one by one but immediately Ryouma caught her shoulders and their eyes met. "Himeno-san…" He looked dead serious, not even the Gods could stop him.

"Wh-what?" Himeno reacted with her eyes wide, surprised. It's not that was the first time Ryouma had been serious. Dark, on the other hand, was heading outside to find any valuable stuff he could steal. He paused when he saw Himeno in Ryouma's arms. For some reason, his heart began to beat faster and it felt like as if it ripped apart. His eyes grew wide and the shredding increased once Ryouma confessed his feelings to Himeno trice.

"I love you! I love you! I love you the moment I saw and met you!" He said out loud and obviously Himeno was blushing for like the umpteenth time. His confession was actually uncountable for the past, what? 2 years and Himeno didn't get the chance nor want to love this guy. Yes, he might be a 'perfect' guy for some people, his clumsiness as an exception, a part of him can be considered as an ideal human on earth. On the contrary no one is perfect in this world.

"What are you talking about, you klutz?" Himeno immediately retorted and pushed him but at that time he was stronger than before. She was surprised and looked at his serious eyes; they were unlike the times he confessed. He won't give up! "Ryouma?"

"I won't take no as an answer," Ryouma demanded deeply and sharply, "What do you see in Dark that you don't see in me!" He screamed and his eyes were hidden by his brown fringe while Himeno's eyes widened immensely. She blinked and pushed him harder now, with her eyes hidden by her hair when she lowered her head, only her lips moving can be seen.

"What on earth are you talking about? There's nothing I see in Dark…" She bit her lips, surely there IS nothing but actually there are many things and she hasn't and doesn't know what they are yet. "Dark is just… my best friend's lover and nothing more than that!" She looked up determined, "And even though she has vanished from this world, still I would never steal that special man of hers! I respect Rika with all my heart!" A wind lifted.

Ryouma had an unusual smile and walked pass her, "Like I'll take that. Himeno, I know you love that man as much as Rika did however I will try to make you love me even it would take me a hundred years." Himeno's eyes were wide and she felt useless and unmatched with anything. She looked down and her lips were shaking.

Dark was still inside and saw the golden and blue eyes close, scared. Himeno should make a decision and Dark decided he had made his. He walked and Himeno paused when she saw legs standing in front of her. She looked up and saw a proud yet disappointed, "Dark?" She looked from side to side, "You heard it didn't you?" Her eyes transformed into irritated slits, bothered by his unexpected appearance, she was actually trying to 'mask' and hide the fact that she was going to cry.

"Everything," He smiled wider and her eyes grew wide, he took it as nothing happened and instead of feeling only hurt, she also bit her lips. His smile was different, showing that he accepted all this. "As your master, you are allowed to love and be with that man!" Her eyes grew wider surprised, even her mouth was agape. She had never been surprised with Dark's decision before. Regardless of it, this made Himeno felt hated by the man she forever loved. "That guy confessed his feelings for you and he looked very serious about it. He deserves you, you know." He sounded more like a brother instead of a teaser.

Himeno had her eyes closed and clenched her fists tightly. She jerked her head up and stared at him, "Confessing his feelings towards me doesn't mean he deserves me! Even then it doesn't prove his loyalty and you should know it." She was enraged, "Although I said you are my master not long ago, you have no right to 'allow' me to love someone!" Dark's expression was still smiling, she couldn't see his reaction. "And finally, that wasn't his first confession…" She walked away with him behind her entering the inn's entrance, "that was the umpteenth time and honestly it is difficult to love that type of guy." She entered the building and Dark could smell the scent of her hair.

Dark opened his eyes as his lips lowered down into sadness, "Umpteenth? Is it really easy to confess your feelings to another?" He looked up at the sky and gazed at the sparkling stars, "Rika?" He looked down after a smirk, "It took me forever to confess my feelings towards Rika, how about to Himeno?" The breeze lifted.

Himeno entered the room and saw them chatting about the twins. All faces were shiny except for Aino, she was a bit irritated that Krad was praised instead of Dark. "I have had enough listening about what Krad is…" Aino faced the opposite way, "Compared to him and Dark, Krad's way annoying."

"Not at all," Himeno sat down respectfully with a smile, "Krad isn't annoying as you think. He's just snobbish and proud of himself." Both of the twins had irritated eyes. Is she praising or criticizing Krad?

"How can you tell much about Krad when you used to be his enemy?" Risa asked annoyed as she pouted and snapped happily, "Don't tell me you like him since you understand him?" Risa felt she had a chance for Dark but dark vertical lines appeared on Himeno's head. Instead of her defending herself, Aino began to defend Krad. All eyes were set on Aino, eventually Aino was talking positive and good spots of Krad. She snapped later on as her cheeks turned to red.

Himeno smirked and pointed at her childishly, "You guys just met and you understand him more than I do!" Aino blushed redder while she pushed down her palms on her knees; she began to deny it, shaking her head left and right. Shirono Aino had never panicked about anything before especially guys! Krad and she must have something!

"She's blushing!" Risa pointed out loud and they began to laugh together while Aino screamed loudly at them with uncountable veins popping out from her temple and head.

Dark looked out through the window that late night. Krad, Satoshi, Daisuke and Ryouma were soundly and comfortably asleep. Dark couldn't seem to get his eyes closed. He wasn't as tired as anyone. His eyes were narrowed and he felt hurt through his heart. It was the similar pain like the time when he heard the death of Rika more than 40 years ago. Dark felt the same love towards Rika and Himeno, to begin with, they were friends and he couldn't make any differences between them. Rika insisted them to be together however Himeno eventually refused her offer because of their past friendship. Dark couldn't make the right decision! He took a deep breath and started to mess up his hair, why do humans have feelings?

The girl's bath corner was noisy. Risa, Riku and Aino were splashing the water to each other and laughing with the other classmates. Himeno was in the other corner, preoccupied. She had been sighing for the past few minutes. Her long violet hair was knot up like Aino's and Risa's.

"What are you thinking, Niwa-san?" Her classmates closed in on her, "Love problem?" They giggled and Himeno began to steam up, in denial. They hit her back and her eyes turned into dots. "Don't fool us, Niwa-san! From the look of your face, you do have problems with love!"

"What are you talking about?" All the girls had sweat drops all over when they realized Himeno was in one far corner that was opposite of them, shaking her right palm, "I have no time for Dark!"

"Dark?" All eyes became deadly sharp, including Risa. Riku and Aino shared the same sweat drop while a bigger sweat drop formed behind Himeno's head, "Who says anything about Dark, Niwa Himeno?" Black Vertical lines appeared momentarily on Himeno's forehead. Why did she say the word 'Dark' anyway? The girls began to scold and scream at her about the guy of their dreams, Dark Mousy.

On the other side of the Hot Spring, the boys shared the same sweat drop, pondering about what the girls on the other side was doing. It was a bit disturbing. All eyes were set on Dark but the most deadly stare was from Ryouma. He was in chibi but staring at Dark with full gauged hatred. Daisuke and Satoshi could feel his hatred through his eyes. Both Dark and Himeno sighed at the same time from the opposite sides.

To Be continued…
