The room was dark, and silent-you could hear a pin drop. Ulrich opened his eyes to a strange sound in his normally quiet room.

"Ring around the rosie." a soft voice was singing from around him. It was a high voice-either a girl, or a young boy. At least, that's what Ulrich would've guessed if he hadn't known who it was. "A pocket full of posie."

Ulrich glanced over at his open window-funny, he was quite sure he had shut it last night before he'd gone to bed.

"Ashes, ashes."

No, it couldn't be her. She'd died over three months ago, he had been there, he'd seen it happen. He went to her funeral and saw her be buried. It couldn't be her.

Ulrich glanced up and saw her kneeling above him. Her face was peeling, and she looked as if she hadn't brushed her hair for weeks, but it was definatly her. She didn't look to happy-on the contrary, she looked quite mad.

"We all fall down." she hissed the last words.

Ulrich screamed.

Ultra-Moon

"Cut!" the director cried, in the middle of Mosaru screaming. "Awesome, everybody! That's enough rehearsal for one day!"

Brittany-Nina sighed before sitting down on the bed as Mosaru sat up. She peeled the make up mask off to reveal her real face as apposed to the zombie looking one she'd been wearing for the play.

"You were awesome, Brittany!" Mosaru laughed, brushing back his hair out of his eyes. "Twice as scary as anyone else could do!"

Brittany-Nina turned to glare at him, trying to wipe the sweat off her face. "I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or an insult" she smiled, before shoving the boy softly.

Katsumi came running up to them with two bottles of water in her hands. "Oh, definitely a compliment." she smiled, handing them their water. "Seriously, I can't imagine anyone better to star in my play."

Brittany-Nina rolled her eyes, blushing, before turning away from her best friend. "Flattery will get you no where." she commented. "I still get the bed closer to the bathroom."

Katsumi shrugged. "Aw well, had to try."

Mosaru glanced over at them, eyebrow raised. "What's with you two, and that bed?"

Brittany-Nina smirked, putting an arm around his shoulder. "We both have certain… needs during the middle of the night that take us to the bathroom."

"'Needs'?"

"Do you really want the details?" Katsumi asked.

Mosaru sighed. "Guess not."

Brittany-Nina was originally from America. She moved to Japan after she stayed at her aunt's one summer when she was little. Katsumi and her quickly became best friends, and ever since then, Brittany-Nina had been staying at her house during the school year, and going to Ouran with their friends.

They cut off as they saw the director making his way over to them. Brittany-Nina had never found out his name, but he knew that he was one of the senior teachers. She'd probably figure out later on.

"Brittany-Nina, Mosaru," the director said, after he reached them. "I need the two of you here during 6th and 7th periods tomorrow, for a dress rehearsal."

"Yessir!" Mosaru jumped up and saluted.

The director rolled his eyes before turning to Katsumi. "And Katsumi, I need to see you right after lunch tomorrow, to discuss some ideas I have."

Katsumi nodded. "Of course."

"Great. I've already talked to your teachers, so don't worry. So, you three go back to your dorms and rest, you've got a big day tomorrow."

"Kay!" Brittany-Nina smiled, before pulling her two friends up and moving towards the door. "See ya' tomorrow!"

"We'd better hurry." Katsumi sighed, as they made their way towards the dorm. "Asami's likely to worry if we don't get back, soon." Asami Morinozuka was one of Katsumi and Brittany-Nina's other best friends, she was sleeping over tonight along with their other friend Sayomi. They couldn't go to rehearsal due to regulations and was known to over react every once and a while "Mosaru, you'd better get going, too."

Mosaru shook his head, smiling. "Nah. Kenji and Keisuke are probably over at your house, annoying Asami and Sayomi."

Brittany-Nina rolled her eyes. "Lucky them." she said sarcastically.

"Oh, please," Katsumi rolled her eyes. "Asami and Kenji are probably making out, forcing Sayomi and Keisuke to watch."

Mosaru laughed, shaking his head. "I think you just helped prove Brittany's point." he stuffed his hands in his pockets before saying off topic: "Anyway, have you heard that Zero broke up with yet another girl, this afternoon?"

Brittany-Nina shook her head. "No, but that doesn't surprise me. He does that to every girl he goes out with. I don't even think he's heard of the word 'faithful'."

"Which girl?" Katsumi asked. "He's gone out with so many, that it's hard to keep track, now."

"Suzumi Takashima." Mosaru sighed, "He's an idiot, for letting her go. That girl is h-o-t hot!"

Katsumi slapped him over the head, shaking her own. "You boys are all the same." she sighed.

By then, they'd reached her house, and her valet was taking their coats. They made their way up to her room, where sure enough, their other four friends were waiting. And just as Katsumi had guessed, it was quite obvious that Asami and Kenji had just finished a good make out session.

"Hey, guys!" Asami smiled, "Welcome back!"

"Good to be back." Brittany-Nina flopped down on her bed.

"So, how was rehearsal?" Keisuke asked.

"Great!" Mosaru laughed, shaking his head. "Brittany was twice as scary as last week."

"Hard to believe." Sayomi smirked. She had been allowed to stay last week, and had made a huge mess of the stage which was why she wasn't allowed anymore.

"Anyway," Brittany-Nina interrupted, embarrassed from all the praise. "Have you heard about Zero's new break up?"

"Who hasn't?" Kenji sighed, as he shuffled through the papers on Katsumi's desk. "It went around faster than the flu bug."

Mosaru shook his head. "Someone has to put him in his place."

"Yeah, but how would anyone do that?" Asami sighed. "He's gone out with every girl in school, and none of the guys has the guts to tell him off."

"Well, then I guess that means it's up to us." Sayomi smirked, shaking her hair out of her face.

"Yeah," Kenji groaned. "But that still leaves the question of 'how?' Even though he broke the girls' hearts, they're still in love with him." he flopped down next to Brittany-Nina and spread one of his arms out behind him. "If we tried to hurt him, they'd kill us."

"An eye for an eye." Sayomi chuckled. "He's broken so many girls' hearts, why don't we brake his?"

Brittany-Nina shook her head "Which one of us girls would be able to make him fall for us without falling for him."

"It's obvious." Sayomi's smile turned evil, as she smiled at the blonde American. "There's only one of us that can keep their emotions under control.

Seeing where this was going, Brittany-Nina began to shake her head furiously. "No." her voice was stern. "I refuse to do it."

"Oh, come on, Brittany!" Katsumi gave her the puppy dog face, though she knew quite well that Brittany-Nina was immune to the look. "Please!"

"No."

Kenji sat up, and put her in a head lock. "Don't make me do it, Nina." he said in a jokingly threatening voice.

"Not on your life-you wouldn't dare." Brittany-Nina knew that it was a mistake to say that, but she really didn't care.

Kenji began to give her a noogie, making Brittany-Nina laugh despite the pain she was going through. "Stop!" she said after ten minutes. "Alright, alright! I'll do it!" she laughed. Kenji stopped, and smirked at her. Brittany-Nina sighed, and looked at her fri3ends. "Okay, then, what do I have to do?"

Sayomi smiled.
