Chapter Two – A Deadly Encounter with Haruhi Suzumiya
There wasn't anywhere for me to go. I didn't dare go back to that place I used to call home. Everyone there would be strangers to me now.
So does that mean that I'm the new Taniguchi? I thought, scratching my head. That version of him seemed too...nice. He definitely must be the me of this world. I sighed and found myself walking along the dark streets, unsure of what to do next.
I guess I should check out the clubroom, and see if Nagato might have left anything for me, I thought. So I headed back to the school and snuck back in to the SOS Brigade clubroom, where I was glad to find that the power was working.
I walked over to the computer and turned it on. It booted up normally, with the long list of text that I never bothered reading, followed by the blue screen with Windows 95 on it. After a few moments, the desktop came up, and I began my search...
But after an hour of looking through the tons of files on the computer, I could see that there wasn't much hope. So I got up and started to look around the room. I looked all through Mikuru's various embarrassing costumes, the books that were left from the literature club...But nothing came up.
I kept looking in the same places over and over again, before finally giving up and sitting in a chair, laying my head down on the table. As I stared at the other side of the room, my eyes started to close, and sleep caught up with me.
I guess it couldn't hurt to get some sleep... I thought before succumbing to a welcoming darkness.
"Kyon..." a faint voice called. "Kyon!" It began to get louder...And I then felt a sharp pain in the back of my head.
"Yahh!" I shouted, lifting my head back up, and looking around. Haruhi was standing beside me, glaring at me. "Kyon! It's about time you woke up, jeez." she said. I looked at her and sighed. "What time is it?" I asked, rubbing the back of my head.
"Well, morning classes are almost over." she said, and my eyes widened. I stood up quickly and exclaimed, "W-Why didn't you wake me up sooner? And why aren't you in class?" Haruhi shrugged, and walked up to the window, looking outside. "Something doesn't feel right...I saw Mikiru in the hallway, but she acted like I was a stranger!" she said.
Maybe because you were going to sexually abuse her again, I thought, But knowing that this world is changed...she probably is a different Mikuru. "Kyon," Haruhi said to me in a serious tone, "Do you remember that bizarre thing that happened last night?"
I bit my lip and wondered if I should tell Haruhi what had happened. Would she believe me? I wondered, She hated it when I told her about how the others weren't human... I scratched the back of my head and said, "Um...well...yeah, I do remember it."
"Aha!" Haruhi exclaimed, surprising me, "I thought it might have been a bad dream or something...What happened exactly? Why does everything seem strange?" I opened my mouth to answer, but she slammed her hand on the table and continued, "Well, that's what we need to find out!"
I closed my mouth and raised an eyebrow at her. Great...here comes one of her attempts at solving a mystery, I thought with a sigh. "Come Kyon!" she said, grabbing my tie and suddenly dragging me to the door, "Let's go to the cafe and see if we can think of some answers!"
"W-Wait! Why the cafe?" I asked. Haruhi shrugged. "It's peaceful there...especially since you're paying." she said. I was about to object, but stopped myself, and sighed. I guess I'll oblige... I thought as I followed(or should I say,'was dragged behind') Haruhi and we left the school.
We split ways first so that Haruhi could go change out of her school clothes. Seeing as though my clothes were now property of Taniguchi, I simply waited for her at the cafe. There I waited for an hour, the feeling in my feet starting to fade.
It's...cold... was all I could think as I breathed onto my hands and rubbed them together, trying to get as much warmth as possible. Eventually, I could see Haruhi bounding happily along the sidewalk towards me, wearing a pink scarf and her white acket.
"You didn't change into something warmer?" she asked me. For a moment I thought she was concerned...But all she did was look at me like an idiot. "Uh...no, I'm f-fine." I said, unable to stop myself from stuttering from the cold.
She smiled and said, "Alright! Let's go in." She went in, and I followed. As soon as I entered the cafe, I was blasted with a wave of warm air. Ahhh, I thought, I can feel my hands again! While I was getting caught up in the moment of warmness, Haruhi impatiently said, "Kyon! Stop day-dreaming!" I looked down and saw her already sitting at a table.
When I sat down across from her, Haruhi suddenly spilled out, "Alright Kyon, the best way to start an investigation is to wait for the right moment, and-!" She stopped as my phone suddenly beeped. Haruhi glared at me, and I raised an eyebrow, then sighed and opened my phone.
My eyes widened as I read the message:
Unknown Sender
Kyon? Where are you? We need to talk about something. -Koizumi
I gulped. Could Koizumi have noticed something was wrong? I wondered, Hopefully he's still the same. I glanced up at Haruhi, who was giving me a funny look. "What is it? Who's it from?" she asked. I closed my phone and shook my head. "No one..."
I could tell she didn't believe me, but she shrugged and continued with her explanation. Since it was obviously long, and idiotic for that matter, I found myself spacing out, and her words started to fade away.
"and- KYON!" Haruhi suddenly stopped, stood up, and shouted at me, "Are you listening?" I looked around at the other people in the cafe, who were staring at us. "Y-Yeah, I'm listening." I assured her. She sat back down and sighed. "Fine. Then we should wait until school is over, and let the plan start, okay?" she told me. I nodded, even though I had no clue what she was talking about.
There was silence for a moment, while Haruhi sipped at a vanilla milkshake she had ordered. "Um..." I began to say, "I actually need to be somewhere. Just for a little bit." Haruhi looked up at me with a suspicious look, then said, "Fine...Just be there on time." I nodded and stood up, walking out of the cafe. "Ehh? Wait! You forgot to pay!" I could hear Haruhi shout as I left.
After that, I found myself starting to run. I took out my phone again and asked Koizumi where he wanted to meet up. A few moments later, he responded:
Unknown Sender
There's an empty building over near the school. Let's meet there.
I raised my eyebrow for a moment, wondering why he'd pick such a place. I guess it's close by, I thought, shrugging and continuing to run. In a few minutes, I arrived, and I looked around. Nobody was in sight, and, looking through the windows on the doors at the front, there was only darkness on the inside.
This building's a ghost town... I wondered, opening the door and walking in. I left the door open to allow some of the light to come through, so that I could see. I looked around the dark room, and scratched my head. "Hey, Koizumi!" I said, trying to figure out where he was...
Then, suddenly, the front door closed, and I was swallowed in the darkness. What the hell? I thought, turning around and running towards where I could barely make out the doors. However, the more I ran, the farther they seemed to me. What's going on? I thought.
"Hehe..." a laugh echoed around the room. I turned and looked around. "Who's there?" I asked. "Ohh, just a friend." a familiar voice came, and my eyes widened. W-What the...what is she doing here?
Suddenly, the room lit up, and the darkness was replaced by an eerie glow that illuminated the room. Ahead of me, I could see the person whom, to that day, probably scared me the most.
"Ryoko..." I muttered, stepping back. She gave me her fake, innocent smile as she walked towards me.
I eventually backed up into the wall, and I could only watch as she drew closer. This...can't be happening! I thought, This girl was going to kill me, in this dark, forgotten building...I'd never be seen again, and nobody would care...but...
Ryoko stopped a couple of feet ahead of me, and tilted her head. "What's wrong, Kyon?" she asked. I gulped, and glanced over at the doors. Maybe I can make a break for it... I thought. Ryoko giggled, and said, "That's not possible."
And then, as I had expected, she pulled out that large, deadly knife that I had seen twice before. My heart started to thump, and I wanted to run, but my feet stayed glued to the floor. She leaned towards me and ran the cold steel of the knife along my cheek.
"It's alright, you don't have to be scared." she told me with a smile. An innocent looking girl and a knife...yeah, nothing to be scared of, I thought, gulping. Ryoko pulled the knife back, and set a hand over my heart. Then she leaned in closer and whispered, "It'll only hurt for a moment..."
No...I thought, closing my eyes, Somebody...SOMEBODY HELP ME! I started to imagine the blade coming towards me, getting ready to feel the sharp pain of it...But, there was a creak as the doors to the room opened. I opened my eyes, and Ryoko turned her head. I was hoping for Nagato...or Koizumi. Anybody who could save me from this nightmare...
But the person standing in the doorway...was Haruhi.
