~Chapter 2~
Me: Why shouldn't I?
Kashino: I told you, you CAN'T post this!
Me: Give me a good reason not to!
Kashino: You're degrading our dignity by posting this!
Me: No I'm not! It's what I like to call a... comedic strategy.
Kashino: You monster! I'm gonna—
Me: (sees reader) Oh! Hi again! How is everyone? I hope you're fine. Kashino and I are just having a teeny tiny misunderstanding with one another. Don't worry. Oh and I'm soooo sorry for making Hanabusa-kun sound too much like a narcissist and a mirror addicted maniac in the last chapter!
Hanabusa: Wait... What?
Me: H-Hanabusa-kun?!
Hanabusa: That was your image of me in the first chapter? That was already close to my normal self!
Me: I-I'm sorry...
Kashino: I told you so Rose Prince! You are a mirror addicted maniac! (turns to me) I can't believe how exact your words were.
Andou: Ma-kun, don't be so harsh.
Me: Oh and another thing. I never told you guys when the timeline is. It happens after the World Grand Prix and everyone returned to St. Marie Academy in Japan for a few weeks of vacation before they go back to Paris.
Ichigo: I love vacations!
Hanabusa: Ichigo-chan, do you think I'm a mirror addicted maniac?
Ichigo: Of course not, Hanabusa-kun.
Hanabusa: Thank Y—
Ichigo: You can act like a narcissist even without a mirror. (No bad intentions)
Hanabusa: (a giant wok drops on his head) You're so mean...
Ichigo: Huh?
Kashino: Pfft...
Me: Um... okay? Let's just let the readers enjoy the story. You can fight later. Okay. 1,2,3 GO!
All except Hanabusa and Kashino: Enjoy the story!
Hanabusa: E-Enjoy the story...
Kashino: WHAT?! NO!
Me: I don't own Yumeiro Patissiere.
I love to laugh. It's the perfect stress-reliever, and with all the stress Ichigo has been experiencing, this would be the best cure.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Kashino and Hanabusa blushed and shouted, "SHUT UP!"
Vanilla couldn't breathe and Ichigo was already on the floor, dying of laughter. Andou was forcing himself to stop laughing. Chocolat was laughing like a Miya. Going, "HOHOHOHOHOHO!" Caramel was red all over, her mouth gaping. Cafe was smiling at what everyone was laughing at, obviously amused.
A photo.
A very entertaining photo to be exact.
A photo of Hanabusa and Kashino, dressed like a cute married couple.
It was Cafe's doing.
He was so irritated of the fight the two had he wanted to stop them in a way that he would gain something as well. He put up his spoon and waved it in the air saying, "Magic Macaroon, Prettyennu Change! Make up!" With that, Hanabusa's and Kashino's clothes transformed. Hanabusa's uniform transformed into a white wedding dress, decorated with pink roses and white ribbons. A long veil appeared on the top of his head wear a longer set of green hair replaced his short one. Kashino looked down to see he was wearing a black suit, inside he was wearing a white polo with long sleeves and a black bowtie. He wore black slacks and a corsage on his left suit pocket. They were both wearing pink heart-shaped diamond rings. The cosplayers turned into complimenting shades of red as they yelled out in embarrassment. Cafe was laughing at his work, patting himself on the back. "I should say, it does look good on you." How insulting. The two were about to strangle him when the door slammed open. The three froze. Kashino spoke first.
"A-Andou?!"
After that the picture taking started. Chocolat took out her fork and took pictures, Caramel did the same. They printed it out like cards in the library's printer. Then they showed it to Ichigo the next day.
"I'm sorry." She apologized finally after long minutes of laughing. Kashino went, "Hmph." And Hanabusa buried his humiliated face in his hands. "But I do admit, you guys do look like a cute couple."
Crack.
Kashino put up his hands like claws of a predator, ready to attack. He tiptoed closer to the quivering brunette.
"AAAAA-MAAAAAAA-NOOOOOOO!"
"Eek!"
Andou stopped him just in time. "Calm down Kashino. It was my idea to have the pictures printed." Kashino escaped from his grip and pointed an accusing finger at Andou's face. "Don't think that I'm not mad at you either! And..." He grabbed Chocolat and aggressively pointed at her as well. "...YOU! YOU NO GOOD EXCUSE FOR A SWEET SPIRIT!" Chocolat laughed even more, it seems like she's oblivious to her partner's anger. "Oh, I'm very sorry Kashino." She said in a very sarcastic voice. "That's for making me sleep on the floor last night Kashino." She whispered. After Kashino drastically destroyed her bed, she had to sleep on the floor since the desk was too messy as well. None of them bothered to clean up.
He was about to hit her when Andou stopped him once more. "Hold it right there. This wasn't the reason why we came here. Right Amano-san?...
...Amano-san?"
Ichigo wasn't listening to him. She was too preoccupied, talking to Caramel. "Hey, Caramel. So I can I have a copy of this? Wallet-size please." She gestured to the picture Caramel was projecting. "Sure-desu. I have one right now." She took one out of her pocket. ((How did that fit in there I wonder?)) Kashino gritted his teeth.
"AMANO!"
Ichigo jumped in fright. "EH? Ah sorry Kashino." She rubbed the back of her head shyly.
Everyone sat down, Ichigo was on the one side of the table with the other three on the other side. ((They were in the cooking lab an hour before class starts by the way.))
"So..." Ichigo paused. Her hands were shaking, she gripped them into a fist to make them stop but no avail. She had no choice but to ignore them and continue. "I have an announcement to make. Regarding my talk with the Chairman."
The Sweet Princes and their Spirits looked at her surprisingly, then that expression quickly turned into an eager one.
Ichigo gulped.
"I... decided to cooperate with the Chairman."
EHHHH? WHAAAAT? ARE YOU AN IDIOT? NO WAY!
Screaming there, disbelief there, shock there, sound of betrayal there. Kashino, Andou and Hanabusa surrounded Ichigo and the spirits did the same with Vanilla.
The interrogation has officially begun.
Kashino went first. He hit the table with his fist and asked the first question. "IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT SUGAR-FILLED HEAD OF YOURS?!"
((What a nice first question Kashino. *applauses*))
Ichigo scooted her chair farther away from the "devil". She was feeling sweaty. Hanabusa was scolding Kashino for screaming to a girl while Andou was gently patting the frightened girl on the head.
Ichigo shouted back. "There's nothing wrong with my head! Besides, the sugar I get from sweets go into my stomach! Not my head!"
Kashino took a deep breath, trying to calm down. He sat down on the table across her. "Hanabusa, next question."
Hanabusa's question: Why did you agree to be the prize for the competition?
Ichigo gulped. What do I do? I promised myself that I wouldn't tell them since I am 100% sure that if they find out I did it for them they'll never forgive themselves.
She had so many excuses to choose from, but sadly, she chose the worst one.
"Ah... I just... wanted to...get... the... free... sweets." Her face quickly turned red in embarrassment, almost like she was telling the truth.
The rest fell in shock. Even Vanilla, telling herself that that was the worst excuse anyone could ever use.
I completely agree.
Kashino clenched his fists, then, he threw the chair, making it hit the wall.
"YOU CAKE GLUTTON!"
He was on a rampage.
Ichigo stood up and ran away, they chased each other in circles, Kashino's hair was practically standing on its ends. Ichigo's pigtails were bouncing like scared snakes running away from a male version of Medusa.
"COME BACK HERE AMANO!"
"WAAAH! I'M SORRY!"
"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE 'SORRY'! YOU'RE GOING TO GO ON A DATE WITH A COMPLETE STRANGER FOR A BUNCH FREE SWEETS?!"
"I JUST WANTED A BOYFRIEND LIKE RUMI-CHAN DOES!"
She stopped. What an idiot! What on earth did she just say?! However, the more important question is why did those words unwelcomingly come out of her mouth?
Ichigo turned to look at their surprised faces, she started to play with her fingers before she tried of thinking of a way on how she could take back what she said.
"I mean..." – She bows her head – "I just..." – She raises her shoulders – "I don't know!" She falls on her knees. "I don't know! Maybe it's because I just want to learn how to fall in love. I really like reading or hearing stories about them and we even make cakes about them. I was just interested I guess."
The Sweets Princes and Spirits stared at her, their eyes not attempting to blink. I am surprised myself. Not only because it just seemed like she successfully lied to her friends, but also because she was actually telling them the truth. She did want to learn what it feels like to like, like somebody.
Kashino walked towards the door, Chocolat right behind him, and banged it once he got out. Hanabusa looked like he wanted to say something, or maybe he just looked like wanted to believe that he was just dreaming and he was begging for someone to finally wake him up. When he realized he was fully awake, he gave Ichigo a hurt look, then Cafe tailed him out the door, which he was too lazy to close. Andou was the last one to leave. Like I said, he was going to leave. He tried to put on a small smile for Ichigo but that was the one thing he couldn't do right now. His tried his best but the deep emotion in his eyes gave his true feelings away. In the end, he did the same thing as the other princes did except that he closed the door gently. Caramel flew after him.
Ichigo was left alone with Vanilla. Vanilla tried to smile and make Ichigo feel like she didn't do anything wrong. (She didn't do anythingwrong actually...) Vanilla pat her partner's head. "Don't worry Ichigo, I'm sure they'll understand that you did it for them, and for the WHOLE school."
Sniff...
"Ichigo..." Vanilla flew to the front of Ichigo's face, which was quickly being covered with salty tears.
"I'm *sobs* such a h- *sobs* horrible person Vanilla." She cried. She covered her face with her hands, her attempt to stop herself from crying hopelessly failed.
Into the mind of Amano Ichigo...
I lied to my best friends.
I even had the nerve to tease them over that stupid little photo.
I'm such a cruel person.
"Didn't you see how hurt they looked?" I asked Vanilla. She didn't answer me, instead, she hugged me tight on my wet cheek.
"Don't cry Ichigo. You know how much Kashino, Hanabusa and Andou care about you, they'll never stay angry at you." I felt a little reassured. I let the tears pour out of my eyes, not caring if anyone saw me. I tried to smile and be optimistic, but an awful thought kept popping up in my head.
"I betrayed them..."
Back into reality...
Ichigo sat on her bed. Vanilla insisted she would stay on her bed until the next day. Rumi also suggested the same thing. Ichigo would've probably said no, but she was too depressed to fight back. She did seem tired from all that crying and running around all evening the day before made her catch a small cold.
"Now stay here Ichigo-chan. I don't want that cold to turn into a fever." Rumi ordered. Ichigo buried her body (except her face) with her blanket and nodded. "I will Rumi-chan." Rumi smiled and gave her friend some pills she had to drink. She grabbed her bag and stopped by the door when she heard Ichigo call her.
"Yes Ichigo-chan?"
"You're not mad at me?"
"At what?"
"At my decision regarding the – ACHOO!"
"Haha! Of course not. Whatever decision you make is alright with me. And don't worry, if the winner tries to hurt you," – She cracks her knuckles – "I take good care of them. Now go back to sleep and rest okay? Bye!"
Ichigo nodded. She watched her roommate close the door in front of her. "Bye..." She whispered. Vanilla popped out from under the blanket. She was fanning herself with her hand. "Hot..." She whined. She felt Ichigo's forehead. It wasn't too warm, but still a few degrees to high. "It doesn't seem too bad." She pointed out. "Now don't get yourself stressed Ichigo. You'll get yourself even more sick."
Ichigo smiled and coughed a little cough. "Thanks Vanil–"
Someone burst the door open.
Let me give you a hint or hints.
It wasn't Rumi.
It wasn't the dorm adviser.
It wasn't Kashino.
It wasn't Andou.
It wasn't Hanabusa.
Then who?
"Amano Ichigo! You better give me an explanation or I'll hit you with my fork!"
It was the Sweet Spirits, Chocolat, Cafe and Caramel. Well the one who shouted was Chocolat.
Chocolat stopped. She looked around. A thermometer, a hot compress, some medicine and a red-faced brunette buried under her blankets even when it's hot already.
"You caught a cold-desu?" Caramel asked worriedly.
"Yeah, I ran around last night and got myself all sweaty in the cold. Teehee." Ichigo said, trying to act as casual as possible.
"It is serious?" Cafe also asked.
"No. Just a small cold. She'll be better tomorrow." Vanilla answered him like nothing just happened a half hour ago.
This annoyed Chocolat.
"HAVE YOU GUYS FORGOTTEN WHY WE ARE EVEN HERE?!" She shouted at Cafe and Caramel. They were almost blown away by that scream. They answered with a small "No."
Chocolat nodded, "Good." She said. She flew closer to Vanilla, not liking at all where things were going. Chocolat gazed at her immensely. "So... Vanilla. Would you mind telling me the real reason why Ms. Cake Glutton here joined Amore Destinia?" Vanilla swallowed the lump in her throat. "W-What are you talking about? That w-was the real r-reason." She failed at lying.
"I'm NOT an IDIOT,Vanilla. Now tell me!"
"B-But..." Vanilla was cornered, Ichigo was watching nervously on her bed.
"Please tell us." Cafe pleaded.
"PLEASE-DESU! Andou seemed really sad-desu!" Caramel said, tearing up.
"But I can't!" Vanilla protested still.
"YES YOU CAN!" Chocolat was getting impatient now.
"Yeah but I won't!"
Ichigo watched helplessly from the sidelines. Even if her throat was achy, she shouted:
"JUST TELL THEM ALREADY VANILLA!"
Vanilla turned and gave her an "Are you serious?" look. Ichigo nodded. "J-Just do it..." she said.
Vanilla gave her one more glance, Ichigo's eyes were so serious. She sighed.
"Okay. I'll say it."
Chocolat calmed down, she sat down on Ichigo's desk, her legs crossed.
"Finally! I just hope that your real reason isn't as selfish as the excuse you used earl—"
Vanilla slapped Chocolat in the face. Ichigo's, Caramel's and Cafe's mouths were wide open. Chocolat's eyes widened. She touched the sore part of her cheek.
"WHAT WAS THAT F—"
"SHUT UP!"
Chocolat obediently followed.
"JUST SHUT UP!" Vanilla was crying. "You have no idea how much Ichigo cares about you guys. She was planning to put her own dignity on the line just to SAVE THE SCHOOL!"
Caramel spoke, "What are you—"
Vanilla didn't give her a chance to finish.
"The school is in danger of getting shut down because of the Chairman's debt! He planned the contest so he can earn more than two million yen so he can save the school. Ichigo didn't want to do this of course but she thought about your dreams and the dreams of her fellow school mates. Yes we may be going to Paris but she couldn't bear to see the school where she grew get shut down. So what if Kashino and the rest are hurt?! Didn't any of you think how Ichigo would feel?! And yet all of you are calling her a selfish, idiotic and prideful Cake glutton!"
Vanilla couldn't talk anymore, her tears were stopping her from speaking. She hugged Ichigo, who was thanking her while crying as well.
Chocolat blushed in utter embarrassment and guilt. She did something you wouldn't expect her to do.
"S-Sorry Ichigo." She bowed in front of her.
Cafe followed. "I'm very sorry Ichigo-chan. We didn't know."
Caramel sniffled. "WAH-DESU! I'M SO SORRY ICHIGO-DESU!" She hugged the brunette tightly on the cheek.
Ichigo hugged the three of them tightly and pat their heads. "Don't worry. I was never mad. And I'm sorry for lying too."
"Vanilla's sorry too."
Chocolat finally cried as well, Cafe did too, so he hid his tears using his hands.
"You idiot pair... why are you both saying sorry?" Chocolat giggled as she dried her eyes with her dress.
They laughed. Ichigo smile was faint though.
I hope the guys are alright...
Meanwhile...
"Okay class, we will be studying how to make banoffee pie. One of the classics. First you have to melt some butter. Make sure to not let the butter boil too much. Then mix crushed graham crackers with the melted butter in a 2:1 ratio respectively. Next we..."
Ameya-sensei was discussing on the not-so-normal class. I don't mean it in a bad way. Okay, okay, maybe I do.
The A group is incomplete because Ichigo is sick right? But that's not the only thing that's weird about them. A dark aura is emitting from the work area, like it was ready to swallow them alive. "A-Are they okay Rumi-chan?" Kana asked Rumi, who was melting the butter. "I don't know. Maybe it's because Ichigo-chan is gone. They're not used to them being only 3 in a group anymore." She made great amends to make sure she wouldn't let anyone else know Ichigo's decision until she says them herself.
"I-I guess so..." Kana looked at them worriedly, then she quickly turned back her attention to the cup crushed graham crackers she was trying to level. She was about to take another cup when she realized they didn't have anything left. She approached each table except for the A table but unfortunately, they were all out too. She had no choice but to approach Group A. She walked slowly until her feet lead her somewhere she didn't want to be. She asked shyly, "M-May I have some graham crackers?" No one answered, so she asked once more. "May I have some graham crackers?" No reply once more. "MAY I HAVE SOME GRAHAM CRACKERS?!"
Kashino gritted his teeth.
"WHAT ARE YOU? A BROKEN RECORD?! STOP BOTHERING US!" He grabbed the pack of graham crackers and tossed it to her. Let me repeat, tossed. Kana got hit in the face. "THERE'S YOUR CRACKERS! HAPPY?!"
Kana's eyes started to water. "That isn't how you should treat girls? Right Hanabusa-kun?" She asked the green-haired boy. He was nice to girls, she was sure he'd agree with her. Hanabusa didn't seem very nice when he answered though.
"Don't talk to me please. Leave me alone... you... creature."
Kana looked at him in disbelief. How did the most princely guy among all the sweet princes say that?! She turned to Andou. "Andou-kun, they're bullying me!"
Andou took a quick glance at her, then he put his attention back to his work. She was ignored.
Sniff...
"WAAAAH! AMEYA-SENSEI!" Kana cried. Ameya-sensei quickly went to her, asking her why she was crying.
"T-The sweet princes were being mean to me! Kashino threw the crackers on my face then Hanabusa-kun called me a creature then Andou ignored me! WAAAH!"
Ameya-sensei glared at them immensely. "What do you think you boys are doing?! Making a girl cry like that! I'm ashamed of you three!" Ameya-sensei gave them minus 10 points for improper attitude inside the cooking lab after she made them apologize. Kana apologized for being such a cry baby as well. Ameya-sensei whispered a few words she didn't intend for anyone to hear as she walked back to the board. "No wonder Amano-san is down with a fever today." She saw the boys look at her with hurt expressions and clearly they were caused by her last sentence. "Eh? Uh, boys don't misunderstand okay I didn't—"
Andou cut her off. "Amano-san is down with a fever today?" Rumi answered him.
"Yes. She came back to her room last night all sweaty and tired and she slept in without changing her clothes. I was fast asleep when she came home so I never had a chance to remind her to change."
Kashino flinched. She got sick because she ran away from him last night. It was his fault.
"Where is she right now?" Kana's worried words sliced into his thoughts.
"Don't worry, she's in our room. I let her sleep." Rumi pat her friend's shoulder and handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears. "Thank you." She said, using the hanky at once.
Kana thought of a great idea. "Should we visit her?" She asked Rumi. Rumi, in turn, smiled and said, "Of course you can!" She turned to the sweets princes. "Will you guys come too?"
They stayed silent for a moment. Rumi looked at them confused. Did they have a fight or something?,She thought.
Kashino, to break the awkward silence, lied saying, "I don't care about that Cake pig. We already used her to win the World Cake Grand Prix, I don't have to tolerate her presence anymore."
Everyone looked at him. I know he can be mean at times, but that was going too far.
"Kashino! What are you saying?" Rumi shouted at him, mortally offended for her best friend.
"I'll say it again for you. I. DON'T. CARE."
Ring...
The bell rang. Kashino walked out, trying to fight back tears. He didn't bother to clean up his work place nor did he care about the toffee burning in the oven. (Don't worry, Ameya-sensei took it out quickly.)
I'm such an idiot...
Rumi turned to Hanabusa. "What's wrong Hanabusa-kun? Did you guys have a fight with Ichigo-chan?" Hanabusa hesitated to answer, until he decided to not answer at all. He started cleaning, ignoring the orange-head asking him the same question over and over. Andou did the same with Kana.
"Guys!" Rumi and Kana shouted in unison as they followed the princes out of the room. Hanabusa slammed the door, Rumi and Kana took a hint and decided not to follow them anymore. The class didn't say a word and they ended class like nothing happened.
They three boys confined themselves in their rooms. Hanabusa and Kashino being roommates, they decided to forget that the other person didn't exist. Andou hid under his bed again.
They thought about what they felt like, why they were mad and why they felt so guilty when in their point of view, they didn't do anything wrong.
I guess that's how everybody is, they think that they are always the victims when in fact, they were the ones that caused their own pain.
Meanwhile, three sweets spirits were making their way to go to their partners. They split up after they left Ichigo's room and they were carrying important news for their partners, however, they couldn't tell them.
FLASHBACK:
"We have to say something!" Chocolat protested. Ichigo was left in her room to sleep and Vanilla was begging them to not tell the guys the real reason on why Ichigo agreed to be the "prize" in Amore Destinia.
"But won't it be bad if they find out from someone else?" Cafe asked.
Vanilla was still begging. "That's the point! Please! Don't say a word about this until Ichigo does. Please, I'm begging you!"
The girl kneeled in the air in front of them. Caramel sighed. "Okay Vanilla-desu. I won't tell Andou even a syllable-desu." She turned to the other spirits. "We have to trust Ichigo-desu."
A mature Caramel. They could tell that she was serious about this so, Chocolat and Cafe agreed but with one condition.
"If there comes a point that our partners are practically begging and crying for us to tell them. We will tell them. Deal?"
Vanilla didn't think this through when she agreed with their condition. She thought that since they were boys, they probably wouldn't beg nor cry just for that.
"Deal!"
END OF FLASHBACK
Ichigo fell asleep with Vanilla behind her.
In Paris...
A man with golden strands for hair and sapphire jewels for eyes is shouting angrily on the phone.
"YOU WHAT?!" He shouted in disbelief, or was it anger? I'm not sure.
He was talking to an old man who loved to fish. His moustache flew in fright when he was being scolded. "Yes. But she agreed with only a few hesitations—"
"HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THAT CHAIRMAN?!" He was having a fit now.
"But I—"
"I never gave you permission to do any of this! I could've given you money." He finally calmed down. He angrily sat down, his elbows on his knees.
"The question is, do you have that kind of money?"
He was stumped. The man wasn't that rich, even ifhe was a famous patissier.
"Look who's all quiet now." The Chairman teased.
The blonde slammed the phone down, not wanting to hear the Chairman's voice for the rest of his life. He grabbed a picture frame on his desk. Inside the frame was a picture of a smiling young brunette in a brown uniform, her curled pigtails were flying and her hands were making victory/ peace signs. (I don't know which.) Next to her was a yellow-haired spirit, she had blue eyes and wears a pink and white dress. Hen – I mean, The man touched the picture of the brunette. He sighed a tired sigh.
"What was he thinking? Putting an sweet and innocent girl in a position like that." He knocked on his table. "Mousse. Come here." At once a small shaggy turquoise-haired boy with wings flew into the room. He had dandelion yellow eyes and pale skin. He was wearing a lavender vest and a white polo shirt with sleeves reaching the tip of his elbows and for the bottom, he was wearing black slacks which were a few inches too long so they were folded at the bottom. He was holding a long spoon on his right hand. He went to the man and asked, "Yes master?"
The man wiped a tired hand across his face. "It's no use. I was too late." He looked at Mousse eagerly. Mousse began to feel scared. "M-Master. Don't tell me..." Master nodded. Mousse gulped. "Are you sure? We talked about the consequences yesterday didn't we Master?"
Master stood up and he banged the table while doing so. "I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES, MOUSSE! Just do it..." He gave him a pleading stare. "Please..." Mousse sighed in defeat. He smiled actually. I've never seen him care about someone so much. He thought.
Mousse raised his spoon in the air. He chanted:
Magic Macaroon! Prettyennu Change! Age change!
Mousse's spoon began to glow red. The master began to shine (literally). He floated up into the air slowly and he spun around. He fell asleep on his bed. His head grew smaller, his arms and legs became shorter. He woke up. His eyes became slightly bigger and shinier. He looked like a kid in baggy clothes.
Correction: He was a kid in baggy clothes.
"Good job Mousse." He said, observing his body. "T-Thank you master." Mousse bowed nervously. The master grinned.
"It feels so great to be 14 again."
END OF CHAPTER
Ichigo: Who's the master?
Me: Really Ichigo? Really?
Ichigo: Huh? But who is it? And why did he turn 14 again?
Me: I just got the idea from this original story my friend made about a guy who can change his age. He turns into a kid to get close to a 14-year-old girl when he's 21.
Ichigo: What story is that?
Me: I can't tell you. She never posted it in the internet.
Ichigo: Too bad...
Kashino: There you are...
Me: *gulp* Oh no...
Kashino: YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR THIS YAMI!
Me: ACK! AH! HELP ME!
Ichigo: K-Kashino... _"
Me: *running* Bye! See you in the next chapter!
Kashino: *chasing* YAMI! COME BACK HERE!
Me: I DON'T WANT TO DIE YET!
