I noticed that I never put up a disclaimer…..i just figured that you people would be smart enough to figure out that I do not own anything of importance……yea……..you get to find out more about Senko and her curse in this chapter. And I bet no bodies wondering why she starts humming when she knows he's going to start a lecture. Id answer this question now but it'll give it away. Onto the story.

What happened last time

She had closed her eyes and started enjoying the playful breeze playing with her hair (get it P). She heard a thud coming from where Yuki was. Opening one eye, the one closer to the noise, she looked at Yuki, who had, undoubtedly, punched the ground with all his might. A small ditch could be seen where his fist made contact.

Being a girl, she sensed a lecture coming on, so she sat up into a more comfortable position, closed her eyes, and started humming.

Yuki turned to look at the now humming girl. The song was calm and it seemed like the wind was playing music as well. Senko could sense Yuki staring at her, but she didn't care, she hadn't done anything like this in a while and she had to concentrate. Yuki looked completely confused as the song started to grow faster yet stayed calm.

A sudden breeze rammed straight into Yuki, but it didn't seem to bother anyone else. Once he had recovered from the 'attack', he sat up and turned to Senko, who was still humming peacefully. The song slowed down again, until it finally stopped. A few moments after it stopped, Senko still had her eyes closed.

Yuki stared at her intently, like she knew something he just HAD to know. A few more minutes passed. Senko, making her first movement in over 15 minutes, took a deep breath, and finally opened her eyes. She acted like she was the only one there, just staring out at the city. Yuki was starting to get annoyed at her ignoring him, but he didn't overreact and kept his calm.

Finally, after about 10 more minutes of absolutely nothing, Senko turned to Yuki and asked, "How do you feel now?" He, of course, was confused and/or surprised by this question and sudden motion, but he answered nonetheless.

"I'm fine. Why do you ask?" When she heard his answer, she smiled. This confused him even more. He was about to ask, but was interrupted by…..laughing? yes, laughing. Nothing seemed to make sense to Yuki anymore, so he gave up and lied down, closing his eyes. To him, her laughter sounded like a beautiful serenade, making him sad when she stopped.

"Sorry. I must have really confused you." You can tell how happy she was through her voice, which sounded like laughter itself, "You see, I haven't done anything like that in a while. I never get close enough to people to need it." She laughed a little more, but was finally able to calm herself completely. Yuki couldn't help but smile at how happy she was, but suddenly analysed what she said, making him utterly confused. He still waited patiently for her answer to his unasked questions.

"Well you see, there's another part of my curse that I didn't tell you. I never thought I would have to but I guess I do." See there she goes answering everyone's unasked questions, "Every person who gets this curse, is granted a power. We of course, being as cruel hate is, don't get to chose what they are, or even get told what they are. Instead we're forced to find out on our own. But that has nothing to do with the point I'm trying to say, so I'll move on. My powers." She took a deep breath, even though it was pretty pointless, Yuki suspected that it was to add a dramatic effect, "I have the power to control the weather, and people's emotions, and people in general." Yuki was listening but wasn't hearing, "with my dancing, I can control the clouds, controlling the weather. With my humming, I can control how people feel, and how they feel towards certain things, which can drive people to act differently, and do my bidding. But I would never-"

"So you're saying you're controlling me!" Senko was rudely interrupted by Yuki's sudden understanding.

"No, that's not it at all. Please let me finish-" but, he didn't. He ubruptly stood up, and stomped away, leaving Senko to burst into tears. But Senko was strong enough to hold them in until Yuki was out of sight. Even though he was out of sight, he could still here her mangled sobs.

The second he heard her crying, he wanted to run back to her, to comfort her, but as much as he tried to turn around, something stopped him, pushing him foreword. He was pushed all the way into the hospital and up into his room. In his room, he was led to the bed, pushed in, and forced into a dreamless sleep.

back at the hill (that's where the tree was, a hill)

Senko is crying her eyes out. What a shocker. She was talking to herself. Not even she could understand, or comprehend what she was saying. She stopped talking and started sobbing harder, if that was possible. After a few minutes of silence, the silence was broken.

"THIS IS WHY I NEVER GET CLOSE TO PEOPLE! I HATE YOU YUKI! I HATE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!" she said more then that, but…….ehhhhh, I would not like to repeat. She went back to crying again.

After about, oh I don't know, an hour and a half, she had stopped crying, and was staring at the sunset. She never knew how beautiful a sunset was until now. She had been put in hospitals and rehab and all that stuff, so she never really had any free time.

The sun went down and the stars and moon took the show. She lay on her back, still under the old willow tree, recently named Tania, staring at the full moon. Slowly she drifted off into a deep slumber.

somewhere unknown

a bunch of spirits whispered among each other.

"We're making this girl's life miserable, with an added bonus. The boy." Mumbles could be heard around the….ehhhh…..place. "Settle down, settle down. Let's get to planning. If we want to make them as miserable as possible, we're gunna have to work together on this." All the spirits gathered around the table, all except one…….

If your wondering, those spirits in the last part are the ones that follow Senko everywhere. I don't know why I put that in there. I just thought id explain the whole forcing Yuki thing. P. so ends another chapter of Sky Dancer. It isn't the longest chapter, but the next one will be. I think. According to my mapy thing of the story, it should be the longest. Yes I make maps for my stories. P.
