Monochrome
Character profile:
Tetsuya Nomura.
-Namine's uncle who's rich, and a famous video game endorser.
Stupid handkerchief. It needed to change my whole life!!! And here is lil 'ol me Namine, tied up ever since chapter three, with green paint dyed at my hair. But that doesn't matter now…because…
Naze?! WTF is he doing?! Why's he like this? Over some new Gray?! The Black Leader, Riku frantically thought.
"Roxas!!! What the hell are you doing?" Riku hollered, the room still silent. Roxas blatantly looked at him.
"What do you think? I'm kneeling." Angered by his cockiness, he yanked Namine's hair.
"Hey, you watch the pretty hair, baka!" but Riku seemed to focused on Roxas.
"Are you playing with me?! Why would you go far for this girl? You're the usual cold blooded guy who doesn't give a goddamn about anything!!!" Before Roxas can reply, Namine was already freed from Riku's grasp.
"Huh?"
"Hey what do you think you're doing?!" A very very angry Riku said.
"She had enough, let her go or you'll face the Keyblade Master," said Sora, who was the person to untie Namine.
"You didn't even help me you idiot!!!" Namine retorted and kicked him on the face. And then she turned the Black who snatched her and gave him an uppercut. "This is for you for bringing me in this mess!!!" Then she turned to Riku and gave him a high kick on the chin and fell of the couch. "That is for you! You worthless airhead!"
"You can't do anything without the help of violence can't you?! You mess with people who doesn't even trouble you! Stop being a kid and grow up!" She then turned around, to see Roxas on his way to the door. "Hey! Wait up!" She followed him through.
"She just kicked Nigasa-san…" xx
"Ei!" Riku, who was rubbing his chin, breathlessly, and fuelled with rage, glared at the door.
"Y-yes, Nigasa-san?" The Black stuttered.
"Find out that newbie's background and relationship with Tsukamoto right away!!!" he ordered.
"Y-yes!!!"
"Matte!!! Tsukamoto-kun!!!" she ran after him, and she stopped when he stopped right at the campus grounds. Flushed, confused, edging into tears and feelings unknown, she watched his back and caught her breath. "Tsukamoto-kun…why did you save me? You and Nigasa-san are enemies!!! Why did you save me?! Even though, you don't know me at all?" she felt her heart sank down for a moment. For no apparent reason, she was so confused, Namine couldn't realize, what she was feeling now.
"Namine…" He then turned around, and she met his eyes, a sad smile across his face, his eyes, apologetic and in pain. "You're so cruel."
"Your return is as sudden as your disappearance…so sudden…"
"But I knew it. I knew it was you. Just looking in your eyes." The girl I fell in love with. He mentally added.
"Although, it seems that you don't even have the slightest hint who I am, the memories,"
"Even though they mean so much to me, even though, those memories, are memories of you and me…that means so important me…it means nothing to you." And she was confused than before. Her heart sank, she had no slight idea who is this boy, nor did she even remember a boy named Tsukamoto Roxas.
"Tsukamoto-kun,"
"Call me Roxas."
"Ro-"
"Watch out for Nigasa. You've boiled enough of his adrenalin to kill." He turned around to leave, without even letting her speak out.
"Roxas! Wait! Who are you?!" she called out to him.
"Tsukamoto-san knelt down on front of Nigasa-san!!!"
"No way!!! This is ridiculous!!!"
"Tsukamoto-san knelt down to the Nigasa-san just for that Gray?!"
Just few minutes the whole school already knows. News traveled quickly. Just as Namine, who was running down back home. "Mimi!!!" Sora tried to call her out, but she ignored him, and exited Gakuen Tasogare.
"Nami?" What could be bothering her? Is it because of Tsukamoto-san?
I need to remember him…
I might've met him…
Somewhere…
"You knelt down?!" The vice president, Fugarisame Hayner (Heniru) slammed his fists on President Tsukamoto Roxas' table.
"Why on earth did you do that?!" Roxas, who seemed to be uninterested, turned his seat, Hayner, facing his back.
"Over some transfer student? Who is this student?!"
"…" He was completely having the 'ignoring' treatment.
"Roxas!!! Are you listening to me?! You kneeling down to Riku represents the surrender of the Whites to the Blacks!!!" he fumed.
"Before that transfer student came, everything was okay!!! But now, everyone will get stuck in your senseless antics!!! For what?! Over some transfer student!!!" He yelled, noticing, Roxas was facing the other side.
"Oi! Are you listening to me?!"
Roxas grunted.
"Baka." Hayner cried in hopelessness and anger.
"Go away. I don't need you." Calm, stoic Roxas said.
"The president doesn't have a clue of his position at all!" One of the Student Council, Ramusawa Pence muttered to Hayner.
"You're right! Voters made a terrible, huge mistake!" Hayner agreed. "But really…we really need to fix up that transfer student…"
Ring
He pressed the talk key and put in over his ear. "Moshi moshi," Roxas started and leaned on the window of his office.
"Dare ga Takaishi Namine ka.(?)" TS: Who is Takaishi Namine?
"I thought I told you not to call me here."
"C'mon…you know I'll get mad when you don't…who knows what I can do to her…"
"Anata no bijinesu nai." TS: None of your business.
"Fine. Though, the more you protect her, the higher the risk she'll get hurt. Don't say I warned you."
Roxas pressed the end key.
Hm…no Tsukamoto here!!! Namine flipped on another page of the album.
"Tadaima!!!" said Testsuya Nomura, who just got back home.
"Okaeri…" she blandly greeted. He noticed the albums, photographs scattered on the table in one big mess.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"Tsuya-chan…there's a boy in my school that acts like we know each other…I don't know!!!" she hopelessly said.
"What's his name? any detail?" he asked.
"He said that my return was sudden as my disappearance. We were friends when we were seven when I used to live here…I don't know."
"What's his name?"
"Tsukamoto Roxas. Familiar?" Tetsuya almost swallowed his toothpick upon hearing the name. Namine and Roxas…
"So, is it familiar, huh Tsuya-chan?" she asked.
"Ah…ano, no. Got memories all blurred into one video game!!!" he said, pretending everything. Tsukamoto…my apologies, for taking Namine away from you.
"Oi! Why's your hair streaked in green?" he asked. Namine fidgeted. Ack! I forgot!!! "Ah, ano…a can of paint ah…splashed over me…ahahaha…" she excused. Nomura just bought it. Tetsuya stood up and took out a basin and filled it with water. He also went to the bathroom for shampoo. "C'mon!!! Let's clean you up!!!" She put her head on the basin, her wet hair, slightly tickling her while looking at the ceiling.
"So, how's first day of school?" he sat beside her and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Well, violence is number one. It's like feudal Japan!!!"
"C'mon, it can't be that bad! Any guys hitting on you?" he sternly asked. She quickly blushed at the thought of Sora. I got my first kiss…
"Ah…yes…weird ones…" she answered back. Tetsuya smiled at her. "I won't let anyone hit you. Not someone lower than me, of course."
"Tsuya-chan, there also…bullies there…" she added.
"Oh, so, what do you want? A.) stay there or B.) Run Away or C.) Transfer again?" he kidded. She glared at him and punched him on the arm. "I'm not going to run away again!!!"
"Good for you. Don't give up,"
She smiled. "Yeah."
"Ohayo gozaimasu, Nami!!!"
"Are you still mad?" Sora asked nervously.
She glared at him. "Of course."
"Don't you really remember Tsukamoto?" Namine suddenly frowned and met her shoes.
"I don't know. But, I think, I'm not the kind to forget someone. Even if he changed."
"Namine…you're so cruel.." With such a sad, sad smile on his face .A total stranger, I can even tell, he's not lying to me.
"Yesterday, when you said there's absolutely no any kind of relationship between the two of you, he looked sad for a moment." Said Sora and went in the crowd.
Namine, who still wasn't aware of anything, just stood there. I can't remember him!!!
Then she heard mutters and noise. Also joining in the crowd to see the commotion, she looked at the board, surprised.
National Practice Exam Results:
Hayase Sora (900) Gakuen Tasogare
Tsukamoto Roxas (895) Gakuen Tasogare
Mishima Haruka (790) Midugaru Harasukuru (A/N: for certain reasons, I edited this, supposedly Kisaragi Yuffie, but due to the lack of characters, Yuffie will have her debut with the same time Axel does. )
She looked at Sora unbelievably. This idiot…aced the exams?!
"That's probably a typo." She squeaked.
"No…"
The two of them looked at each other, Namine, really could not believe it.
"NO WAY!!!"
"Thanks for reacting as I expected…" he said.
"Oh!!! Hayase! You got a perfect score at the exams again!!! You are such a pride for the school!!!" a teacher said and congratulated him. "It was nothing!!!"
"Pride? Then…that means…you're the first in Japan?!?!" Namine shrieked. Cheater!!! Real cheater!!! Her mind yelled. You can tell it! From his eyes! Her brain added.
"I see. So that's why you've got the rights even if you're gray…because people don't bully those who are superior to them…"
"You should've told me you were a genius!" So I can borrow your wasted intelligence! Namine said.
"I am not a genius. I study for my goal! That's all!" said Sora.
"What is your dream?" Probably something not smart.
"To wield and make the first ever sword that looks like a key! And I'll be the Keyblade master!!!" he cheered. Namine sweat dropped. Little did they know, a girl with crimson hair and blue eyes peeped on the wall. Namine…you're back!!!!
"What kind of dream is that?" before Sora could reply, Namine again got hit with tomato sauce in the head. Sora smiled happily. He put his index finger on her tainted head, then licked his finger. "Hmm, it's not Del Monte, but Hanz ketchup, only ¥428.50!!!" Namine shot an angry look at Sora and ran for the two Blacks. Sora eventually followed.
The Blacks hid behind their classroom door, panting.
"Damn it!!! They got away!!" Namine said.
"Gawd, she sure runs fast!!!"
"Next time, we aim at her futher away!!!"
She wiped her head and headed to their classroom with Sora behind her.
"Argh…can this get any worst…" throwing her bag on top of her table, and it opened. A group of unknown specie, with yellow bright eyes, circular head and two antennas, with a symbol on its back (A/N: They look like Shadows in KH) it scratched Namine. "WTF is this?!" Namine shrieked. Sora stepped immediately on it, showing wires, and pure metal. He gulped and so as the other students.
"T-toys…"
"Ooh…they are just toys!!!" Namine said in delight.
"No! Heartless has moved!!!"
"This early?!"
"It's starting again!!!"
The students in the room panicked.
"Who is Heartless? What are you guys talking about?" Namine said, poking the toy.
"H-heartless is someone who uses toys to harass people he/she hates, when the toys touch you, you may either get electric shocked, can scratch you, or burn you…we called that someone Heartless…because…he/she almost killed someone by a toy. The student got an electric shock and was in the hospital for weeks…"
"Every person this Heartless victimizes…ends up at the hospital…and dropping out of school." He added.
"Do you know Heartless then?" Namine asked.
"No, none of the students know who Heartless is. We don't know her gender, what grade she is in, or if she's Black or White," answered Sora.
Sora then looked at Namine with a meaningful and anxious look. "Namine,"
"it's a Gray Elimination Mission."
Namine absentmindedly dropped the toy. She looked at Sora with uneasiness on her face.
"Heartless moved?!" shocked Riku fell of his chair.
He nervously tapped his hand animatedly at the table. "This is not a laughing matter!!! She's the first thing Tsukamoto has ever shown weakness to!"
"AND SHE MIGHT END UP LEAVING SCHOOL!!!" He yelled at his fellow Blacks.
"Eh, Nigasa-san, all we know is, Heartless is a White!!!" Shirunazawa Demyx, a fellow Black said.
"Heartless has never moved this early then," he added.
"Maybe because of Tsukamoto kneeling down for that Gray Takaishi!"
"Whoever it is, just make them stop!!!" Riku commanded as he pointed a finger to them.
"But you don't even know who it is!!!" Demyx complained.
"Then find it out ASAP!!!" a hotheaded Riku retorted. Demyx sighed and was about to leave, for his search.
"And if you find Heartless…" Demyx turned around.
"Tell her not to play with that Gray." Riku finished, with another dark smile.
Question: Does anyone here would like me to put up the Final Fantasy characters? Please answer, I really need it for the future chapters, the original KH characters and some of the Org. XIII just doesn't fit some most of the roles. Please, tell me what you think.
