Amber: ( comes back as decrepid skeletal phantom with working papers, a checking account, a drivers permit, and a report card saying yes, because you ACTUALLY passed your math course this year, we're letting you go on to senior year without kicking you out.)
Saren: I think she's going to die..
Kit: Noo! Ganbaru! Ganbatte! Ambie don't die!
Ambie: (sits at the keyboard likes its some ancient, cryptic typewriter) Sweet Mother of heart chakra... It's mr keyboard again... Ain't seen him since I turned in my junior thesis...
Saren: ... (pat pat) there there ambie. Just think of the story and it'll all be ok.
Disclaimers:
I am the walking dead right now. You know dern well I don't own Battle Royal, Furuba, or Azumanga Daioh.
Kagura was not really of any more use after seeing Ayame go in the way that he had. It had been completely by accident. He, being the eldest had volunteered to manuever all the corners and walk ahead of them in case they needed to run. Some shooting had occured off in the distance and they had picked up their pace.
Kagura had heard a scream and seen a puff of smoke and Hatsuharu had pulled her behind a tree. When she peeked at the scene, the girl was screaming again and trampling Aya in the same way a horse might.
When she stopped and saw she had crushed his body, she was not satisfied. With brutal finality she brought her school shoe down on his little gray head. Hatsuharu had pulled Kagura away for this part, but she had heard the terrible squishy crunch, like fishbones breaking, and had only barely been able to stifle a sickened wretching sob against Hatsuharu's shirt. In the following silence she heard only two things.
"Ugh! I hate snakes! Nasty, dirty, vicious things!"
Then there was the wiping sound as the girl walked off.
Hatsuharu didn't think it'd be good to let Kagura see, but she stubbornly went to the little crushed body and dug a hole next to it, in a place where his blood hadn't been smeared by the girl wiping off her school shoes. She buried him there, along with one of his lovely light green eyes, which she had spotted a few feet away, half squished.
After that they had continued, coming to something that was litle more than a shed, tools and all in it. Kagura sat against the wall with the half shattered window, and didn't speak. Haru sat next to her, but offered no comforting words. They didn't eat, merely sat in silence. Even after the announcement that came who knows how much later, they were silent.
Shortly after the announcement it began to rain. Neither of them moved from their place under the cracked window.
Yuki and Kyo weren't in the rain yet, but they could hear it and smell it coming towards them from the opposite side of the island. They had lost both Momiji and Hiro and had successfully killed their attackers, so the order of the night was finding a rest spot. They wandered for a bit before they came to something that could more or less be considered a hole in the ground and entered it, pleased to find that it was some manner of tunnel leading into a large cavern that had apparently had its normal entrance caved in.
A fire would be needed to see, so they dug out some of the wreckage with the help of some of Yuki's rats.While they were doing this, the death list was read. Kyo noticed an odd look pass over Yuki's face when they said Aya was dead, but it passed quickly and he didn't say anything.
When they had created a suffient passage for oxygen they brought in wood just as the first drizzle was hitting and lit a small fire. For a while they sat in silence before Kyo finally said something, while staring at his bracelet.
"Not going to call me stupid for keep Shisou's corpse...?"
"If I had someone", Yuki began, still looking into the fire. "who cared for me the way Shisou did for you and he met an end like that, I'd carry him too I suppose.."
"Oh.."
"Besides.. He seems to still be protecting you."
Yuki scooted over and pointed out the various bullet holes in Shisou's back where they should've been in Kyo's. Kyo didn't approve.
"Don't say it like that! They... they killed him enough already... I just wish thy'd stop trying to destroy his remains now!"
Against all his bidding and training and hatred for Yuki, Kyo broke down into the tears he'd promised to show only Tohru when he'd gotten her out along with himself. Yuki seemed quite surprised and even a bit flustered about what to do next. He sighed and thought to himself Old medicine is the best medicine.
"Now's not the time to cry your eyes out, baka neko."
Kyo sniffed, rubbing his eyes fiercely though his voice came in a weak child's whisper.
"I'm not crying you stupid stupid little rat..."
Yuki really didn't know what to do now. It simply wouldn't be right if he did something as friendly as hugging Kyo. Island of death or no island of death, they weren't meant to be friends. As he sat unsure of himself, Kyo laid back with his arm over his eyes, still hitching softly every now and then. Yuki thought maybe he had fallen asleep, but as soon as he moved to go to the other side of the fire, Kyo spoke with quiet composure.
"Thanks. ...Yuki. And I'm sorry about Aya. He was a pain, but he really was trying to love you.."
Yuki stared at the fire, thinking of the announcement again and the cold way Kyo's father had said it.
Stepped on
Figure it out
Yuki wanted to say "You're dad is a bastard." to Kyo, but that was an overly obvious statement that hung over everyone on this godless island. Instead Yuki just sniffed and gave a faint "yeah." before he laid down, trying to sleep.
Both he and Kyo had lost the person who most gave a damn. Between them, all they had left was Tohru and it hung heavy on the air between them that they were probably going to go insane if she died here.
Then again, that heavyness might've just been the rain.
Somewhere back on the other side of the island in an abandoned farmhouse there was the sound of heavy breathing and hooting barn owls.
"Why are you making that face at me Hatori?"
There was also the scent of hay, sweat, and sex.
"You act like we haven't been lovers before." Akito cooed in his sadistic way, then in a sudden turn of temper, grimaced. "Or are you still thinking of that bitch that made me hurt your eye?"
Right there, from his place in Hatori's lap, he slapped Hatori, screaming and generally throwing a mid-sex tantrum. "Stop fucking thinking about her! The bitch doesn't even remember you!"
Hatori continued to glare, but Akito had already become calm and was kissing Hatori, stroking fondly at his cheek and rocking in his lap.
"Or could it be that you're mad at yourself...?" he laughed. "Yes yes! It makes perfect sense! You've got poison in the bag they gave you. You could kill me right now... but you haven't got the guts to do it, do you?"
He gave a sadistic cackle as Hatori came to a completely anti-climactic climax and moved off the still glaring man. Without wasting a second he made Hatori assume the position and went around behind him.
"I may have a weaker body than you, but I can definitely show you how it's done Hatori."
Akito grabbed roughly at Hatori's hair and pulled backward, forcing Hatori to go back with it. Hatori had to bite his tongue to keep from screaming as Akito used that backward momentum to quickly, rudely, and forcefully make his entrance.
"Oh" Akito said calmly, as if to punctuate his thrust with a period, where it felt like a rather large exclamation mark to Hatori. "And I'll make sure we're the only two left."
That was the last phrase of the night and even through pain while Akito rode him like some cheap masochistic prostitute, Hatori wondered the implications of that. When Akito's breathing became labored and he finally came, Hatori lay on his stomach. Aktio lay next to him, snuggling down as though they had just got done with the first obligatory honeymoon fuck. Hatori sighed and closed his eyes.
Akito had said he'd make sure they were the ones who left. What he really meant, with that stupidly calm 'oh' included was that he was going to kill Tohru. Hatori knew unless he stayed very close to Akito in the next day or 2, that he wouldn't be able to stop it all. With that thought and a stinging, sore ass he fell asleep.
That was the end of Day 0. Tomorrow, Day 1 began and the time bomb would officially begin ticking.
Amber: (crawls somewhere and dies) Yeah, I'm not so far in the hole that I dont know Akito is really femme. But ya know what? I support yaoi. So you go away.
Saren: Already gettin back to her old self..
Kit: Nooo! She's dying agian!
