Chapter 16 A "Great" Day at the Park

I own what I own; all official characters belong to Capcom. Zoey and Abrie (the twins) belong to my friends.

Yeah, sorry for not updating as much, for those of you who actually read this. I started liking Bleach and started getting lazy at updating. I thought I should update before school starts…

For some reason, I thought Abrie Suchie (from NEASOM) looks kind of like Yachiru Kusajishi (11th division vice-captain for those of you who watch Bleach)

OoO-scene change

"What are you still doing at home?" asked Rosesade. "Surprisingly, no one attacked at five am like the last few times," replied Searchman.

"Did you hear what happened at about three last night?" asked Knightman as he came into the room. "Hai, it was weird. The others returned, but we're still having navis as the operators."

"Well, what do you guys want to do today?" asked Pride from her pet. "Well, I practiced fencing with Searchman at five since I woke up thinking Madi was going attack, but she didn't so I just went to train."

"How about we just go to the park?" suggested Pride as she looked over at Rosesade, "Why are you so tired?"

"I stayed up until about four or five last night," replied Rosesade as she sat on the couch. "Why were you up at five in the morning anyway? You told me that you were getting a glass of water when you went back to your room," said Laika from his PET. Oh, well, my back really, really hurt…bad, it still hurts now. So, um, let's go to the park. What time is it?" asked Rosesade as she headed back to her room. "About noon, you slept in kind of late," replied Knightman.

"Kind of?"

OoO

"Elite, what happened last night?" asked Abrie as she bumped into him in one of the hallways. "Midnight came and tried to save a few of the net saviors last night. She managed to get them back, but they're still here. She got a lot of damage though, thanks to me."

"Wow, did she bleed a bit?" asked Abrie as she looked up at Elite. "Not exactly a bit, kind of, more then a bit, though," he said as they walked down the hall.

ELITE'S FLASHBACK

Midnight screamed as Elite jumped down and slashed her arm with his sword. "Looks like you came. It may be late, but there's a hidden camera in this room, idiot." Midnight jumped and started running to a different room. Elite was quick to follow as he readied his sword. He tried slashing, but cut her skirt a bit. "What are you doing here?" he asked as they ran into the next room. "What do you think idiot?" replied Midnight as she stopped and tripped Elite. He was quick thinking and grabbed her ankle before she could keep running.

Elite picked up his sword and managed to get a small cut on her leg before she ran off into the room where they had the main computer that ran the status of the white chips. Elite got up and ran after her. It took a while, but after a few hours of chasing her, he found her in the room with the main computer. She had managed to get Razal back and was typing something in. Elite snuck up on her and slashed her across her back. Midnight screamed in pain and fell to the ground. She turned around slowly to face Elite as he looked at his blade. There was blood on it.

"Well, whenever I kill someone, I slash an X on their back. When I complete the X, they will most likely be dead," said Elite as he wiped her blood off.

"W-what are you going to do now? Kill me?" asked Midnight in pain as she tried sitting up. "I would, but I want to see who's under the mask and hood."

He forced her to stand up and put his hand to her throat, "Now, I'm going to let you take it off your self. Either that, or you are going to die in my hands." Midnight didn't move. After a while, Elite pushed her against the wall.

Instincts kicked in and Midnight tried fighting back, but Elite just let her drop to the ground and he kicked her back, knocking her out from the pain. "I guess I get to be first to find her identity," said Elite as he picked her head up. He was about to pull off the hood and mask when Edward jumped in and kicked her back.

"What the hell are you doing up, baka?!" yelled Elite as he dropped Midnight and faced Edward. "I felt like I had to kick someone from getting a bag whacked to my face a few days back," replied Edward.

Midnight gained conscious, but they didn't notice. She quietly escaped as the two kept yelling at each other.

END FLASHBACK

"Well, we better be going now. Tell Saiba that I better not have to kill anybody when I get back."

OoO

"Well, we're at the park, too bad Princess Pride and Knightman had to do some paper work," said Searchman as they got to the park. "Pride had a lot of paper work since she was about eight. It use to be more simply when some of the council helped her," said Rosesade as she put a hand on her back, "She has a lot of paperwork, she hates it, and yet she acts like it's normal and does it without slacking off."

"She's a bit like Enzan-san and Blues if you think about it, or Laika-san," said Searchman with a laugh, adding the last part quietly. "Are you talking about me?" asked Laika with a hint of annoyance in his voice.

"No, Laika-san, Rosesade-san and I were just joking around a bit," said Searchman as he slapped Rosesade on her back.

"OW! And it's just Rosesade," said Laika's sister as she fell. "Gomen, does your back hurt that bad?" Rosesade nodded as she sat up. "Aren't you a bit young for having extreme back pain?" asked Laika as Searchman helped her stand up. "I don't know, I'm just going to sit down while Searchman can experience what it's like to be human by going down the slide a few hundred times like a six-year-old."

"Hey! I heard that!" Rosesade grinned as she sat down, "Of course you did. You're not deaf and I wanted you to hear it." Searchman just glared at her before sitting down on the bench next to her.

Jay sat down next to Rosesade and saw she was spacing out, "Rosesade?" She looked over at him, "Oh, hi Jay. Who's that?" she asked, pointing to a little girl with blonde hair. "Oh, um, this is Kit. She's my cousin and I have to take care of her today," said Jay as Kit smiled and bowed.

"Konnichiwa! I'm Kit! Nice to meet you, nii-san's girlfriend!" said the little girl as the older two sweatdropped.

"We're not dating," corrected Jay as he smacked her head. "Oh, it looks like you do, since you're blushing and all…" Jay started turning a light shade of red as he smacked her again, but this time, harder, "Sh-shut up!"

"Nii-san has a girlfriend! Nii-san has a girlfriend! Nii-san has a girlfriend!" chanted Kit as the two sweatdropped, again. "Uh, Kit-chan, we really aren't, uh, dating. We're just good friends," said Rosesade as Jay fixed his cap. "Sooner or later, you're going to like each other," replied Kit with a grin on her face. Jay smacked her head once again. "I only took her to the dance, and that's all!" Kit's grin went wider, "Nii-san took a girl to a dance!" "Hey! I didn't like anybody so I just took her instead, since she's one of my best friends," said Jay, "We're only friends, Kit, got that?!" Kit starting laughing, "Then why are you blushing?" she asked as she started rolling on the ground from laughter.

Rosesade looked over to say that the little twerp was right; he was turning a light shade of pink. "He's blushing because of the embarrassment you're giving him."

Kit stopped laughing and stood up, "That's a very good point, nii-san's girlfriend. You're smart, maybe even smarter then nii-san!" Rosesade sweatdropped, "We're not dating, and I'm not sure about that. I do know that I'm sneakier, though."

"Nii-san's girlfriend, what's your name?" "Rosesade." "Oh, well, I'm going to play on the swings, see you later, nii-san and nii-san's girlfriend!" said Kit as she ran off. "Sorry, about that, Kit is very stupid most of the time." Rosesade laughed, "I see that! Well, what do you think NEASOM is going to do next?"

Suddenly, a gun shot was heard from behind her and all the little kids ran away from the play ground. A dimensional area formed as Searchman cross fused with his navi.

R Coder sat on the bench waiting as Jay and Rosesade went behind another bench, trying to get out of the line of fire. "Didn't expect me, did you, Laika?" asked R Coder as she shot her gun in his direction. He stepped out of the way and it hit a tree.

"I thought you were coming at five like the others. Scope Gun!" He shot it at R Coder, didn't damage her much. "You know, Laika, when I'm done beating you, I think I'll make Elite-san proud. I think I'll kill someone that you care about."

"You are not killing my sister, no matter how much I hate her at some points," said Laika from the inside. "I thought you would appreciate someone who killed your sister. She is the one to blame for the death of your mother."

"What?!"

Behind the bench, Jay looked shocked, and Rosesade, she thought that she would kill Madi if Laika hated her after this.

Back with the older two, R Coder smirked as she shot her gun, landing a hit on R Lieutenant's side. "How is it Rosesade's fault that my mom died?" asked Laika from the inside. R Coder smirked again, "You have to ask her to find out. I know she blames herself at times." She shot her gun again, this time making the scope gun disappear.

"Battlechip, Long Blade!"

"Battlechip, Aqua Sword!"

They started clashing swords until R Coder landed a hit on R Lieutenant. He tried to get up when he saw that she was heading toward Rosesade. R Coder gave him a small, but damaging cut to his neck and headed toward the others. The two started running, but R Coder caught up, since navi abilities can be useful in cross fusion.

She grabbed the collar of Rosesade's shirt and pulled her up, "Alright, Rose, if you try anything here, then consider yourself dead," said R Coder as she dragged her along. R Lieutenant got up and found Rosesade being dragged over. "Alright, now let's have some real fun. Let's what can be done faster, me beating Laika, or me getting Rose on the edge of death. Hmm, maybe I'll do the second one first to see what you think," said R Coder as she pulled Rosesade off her feet.

"Hey! Ugly! Why don't you pick on some else, like your current foe, Laika," said Jay as he kicked her head. R Coder let go of Rosesade, making her fall on her back. She started trying to cut him, but he just dodged. He helped Rosesade get up and ran back to a tree.

"I just thought of something," said R Coder. "Is it another wonderful idea like how you tried to kill Rosesade-san?" asked R Lieutenant sarcastically. "Yes it is! I will kill you, Rose, or her little boyfriend with a signature move that Elite has." She formed a Long Sword and tried slashing R Lieutenant's back. "We're not dating!" yelled Jay from a tree branch.

"Elite-san uses his sword to make an X on the victim's back. When he finishes the X, he or she will most likely be dead." R Coder slashed him and landed a hit close to his symbol. She started slashing really fast and cut him in a bunch of places. "Well, looks like I can say I won. I'll just knock you out and move on to your sister."

R Coder kicked his head and he crossed out. "Looks like you're out." She brought out her keyboard and typed something in and disappeared. She appeared behind Rosesade grabbed her collar. She threw her into a bench, making it knock over. "Well, I'll just make the finishing blow and leave."

She walked up to Rosesade, who was knocked out from hitting her head on the metal. She formed a canon and was about to shoot when Jay jumped in front of her. He glared at her and drew something in the air. She just shrugged after a bit, crossed out, and left, without doing anything else. (That was weird and stupid, but I can't tell you what it means)

"Rosesade? Are you okay?" asked Jay as he shook her lightly. No response. He tried putting her in a sitting position, when he felt something wet on his hand when he touched her back. He looked at his hand and saw that there was blood all over it. His eyes widened and he carefully turned her over, seeing that she was bleeding really bad on her back.

"Rosesade, please wake up," he said worriedly as he shook her lightly. She stirred slightly, but didn't wake up. Searchman walked over and saw the blood, "What the hell happened?!"

"I think the bench made a cut on her back, but I don't get how it made it so big and bloody," said Jay as he lifted her up. He looked around and didn't see Kit, "I guess she went home," he said to himself. "Jay-san, if I got your name right, can I trust you to bring Rosesade-san back home? I need to tell Knightman this and my PET is down from the battle, so I can't email him."

Jay nodded, "I'll stay there to make sure she's okay until you come back." Searchman nodded and ran off. Jay started off to Laika's house, careful to not hurt Rosesade. He arrived after a while and unlocked the door with her key in her pocket. He tried waking her up again, but she didn't wake up.

"I guess I have to help with the bandages," he said to himself as he picked up a bunch and started unrolling them and cutting them. He shook her again, "Rosesade, please wake up, I don't want to be the one that has to bandage you up." She didn't move.

"No one else better find out about this," he muttered as he grabbed the bandages. He gently set her down so that she was on her stomach. He slid off her shirt, turning very red in the process, and wiped up the blood. He looked at the cut and saw something odd. Across her back was a huge cut that went from her left shoulder to about the right side of her waist. He quickly and carefully wrapped the bandages around her, turning redder then the apples that were in the kitchen.

He found a clean shirt and put it on her, sighing in relief that no one walked in. He picked her up again and put her on her bed in her room. He pulled a blanket over her and sat down at her desk. There were papers and other desk top things all over her desk. One letter that caught his eye was in a drawer that was a crack open. He took out the letter and read it. His hand shook while he read it and his eyes were as big as plates when he finished. He put the letter back and closed the drawer. "I-I can't believe this," said Jay, with his voice cracking. He walked over to her bed and looked at her for a bit.

Jay suddenly pulled her into a hug, even though he didn't know that she had just woken up. "I am so sorry, Rosesade," he whispered as silent tears ran down his cheeks. He ran his hand carefully down her back, tracing the huge cut on her back.

After a bit, he heard, "It isn't your fault, with whatever you're apologizing for. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be here right now," said Rosesade softly as she wrapped her arms around him. "Rosesade, you don't understand," said Jay as he pulled away and looked at her, "I found that letter in your desk drawer! I know you're not a thief, so don't say you took it!"

Rosesade looked shocked, but after a while she looked confused, "Why are you apologizing? I should be the one saying sorry for not telling you." Jay just hugged her again, then he whispered in her ear, "This is the last time that I'll see you after I tell you this."

He whispered something else and Rosesade's eyes went wider then they ever have. "If you tell anyone, then I will kill you." He pulled away and saw that Rosesade was crying, "All I have to say is: Why?" she asked quietly.

"Because I want to that's why," said Jay as he stood up. "Sayonara, Rosesade Antovich." He reached his hand down her shirt and pulled off the bandages with a strong yank. She screamed in pain as she started bleeding again. Jay threw the bloody bandages on the floor and left.

Rosesade lay there, "Sayonara, Jay, I'll miss who you were," she said to herself as she closed her eyes.

OoO

END CHAPTER

I guess kind of cliffy-ish, huh? Well, here are the questions you probably want answers to.

WHAT DID JAY FIND IN THE LETTER?

WHAT DID JAY SAY TO ROSESADE?

WHY DID HE SUDDENLY JUST HURT HER AND LEAVE?!

Sneaky Peaky of the next chapter:

"Rosesade should come with us!" said Drop, "I know! We'll invite her friend Jay, too!" Pride quickly stepped in, "Uh, I'm, uh, not sure if that's the greatest idea." "Why not?"

"Who's Rosesade?" asked Net. The others glanced at each other…

OoO

"Well, I guess you guys are going to Ameroupe. Meet us at the Densan International Airport next week at 6 in the morning. Princess Pride, can you tell Laika, Rosesade, and Jay about the trip? Thank you," said Mejin as the oldest two left the room.

"Rosesade is going to kill me," muttered Pride as Knightman headed back.
