Senketsu remembered some of the manga Ryuko would read the very brief, and few times she went to the library at Honnouji Academy.
Sometimes one of the protagonists would (through a series of odd and often improbable events) somehow end up within an alternate world. A place similar to their own but also different in many ways, most specifically people the character knew the most.
Going off of that knowledge, perhaps Senketsu was transported to an alternate world. One where Ryuko and Satsuki were very close. But what early events that shaped his original world were different in this world?
Whatever it was, it doesn't seem like there're life fibres here. At least not in Ryuko and Satsuki's lives.
As he thought about this, Senketsu suddenly felt very happy about it. Ryuko and Satsuki were living what he could only assume were peaceful lives because of the lack of life fibre interference.
More like, I hope that they're living peaceful lives. Those are two are sweet by nature, they deserve peace.
Senketsu could hear the conversation between the Kiryuin sisters happening outside of the school bag.
"You say you found this on the side of the street?" Satsuki asked Ryuko. The younger sister nodded.
Satsuki sighed.
"That's such a shame. From what I can tell it would look beautiful if wasn't torn apart like this. I really do hope that it will be salvageable."
"Yeah me too. I would hope to see it the way it's meant to be." Ryuko agreed.
Me too Ryuko.
"Alright. Now, let's enjoy this lunch break. C'mon." Satsuki proclaimed as the three girls turned to leave the council room.
It was after the school day had ended.
Ryuko and Mako were both walking out the school gates alongside the other students of Honnouji.
"Hooray! We have a week off from school!" Mako exclaimed happily.
"Mm hm." Ryuko replied with a smile. "Hey, you wanna come to my house today Mako?"
Mako made a sad face.
"I so sorry Ryuko! I can't! My mom wants me home when she tries out the croquettes. Not to mention dad has a bunch of patients coming tonight!"
"Hey hey. It's okay Mako. I'll see you tomorrow then."
"Okay. See you Ryuko-chan!" Mako exclaimed with a deadly hug before she ran off.
At the Kiryuin manor...
Ryuko handed Iori, who was their butler Soroi's nephew, and a good school friend of Satsuki's as well as being one of the most promising intern couturiers for the Revocs company.
"So what do you think Iori? Can you salvage it?" Ryuko wondered.
"Hmm..." Iori spoke with his hand to his chin. With the other he felt the threads and pieces of what remained of the garment lying on the table before him.
Uuuuuggggghhhhhh...
Senketsu looked up at Iori, who he knew to be the President of the dangerous sewing club back on his world, as he inspected Senketsu's remains.
Isn't there any way you could do that without feeling me up like this? If only you could understand how awkward this is for me. Gaa-ah.
Iori was now putting his fingers around Senketsu's eyes.
"So what do you think Iori? Can you salvage it?" He heard Ryuko speak.
"Hmm...perhaps. It looks like most if not all of the threads and fibres are here...in fact it kind of looks like they're almost all where they should be." Iori picked Senketsu up from the table and held him up to the light, before putting him back down.
"I'm thinking some basting, one hell of a lot of binding and hand sewing. We could get this thing back together."
Ryuko smiled, and if he could Senketsu would have heaved a huge sigh of relief. He was being put back together, he was going to be whole again.
"That's great. Thanks Iori. I'll leave you to do your thing." Ryuko replied as she left the headquarters of the Academy's Sewing Club, which just so happened to be stationed at one of the vast wings of the Kiryuin manor.
"Alright then." Iori spoke as he picked up Senketsu's remains and walked into the sewing lab. "Let's get to work on you."
Ryuko had changed out of her school uniform into a comfortable pair of shorts and a shirt covered with her sweater jacket.
Ryuko played around on her phone until Soroi knocked on her room door.
"Lady Ryuko."
"Yes Soroi?"
"Mister Mikisugi is asking what you would like for dinner tonight."
"Oh, um...I'm actually in a croquette mood today."
"Very well. What would you like in your croquettes ma'am?"
Ryuko smirked. "Tell 'im to surprise me."
"Of course Lady Ryuko."
"Thanks Soroi!"
There was another knock on Ryuko's door later, which came from her sister who apparently just came home from her after school council duties.
"Hey sis." Ryuko greeted. "How was the last council meeting before the break?"
Satsuki left her bag at the door and plopped down onto the bed the spot next to Ryuko.
"A bit dry. Nothing new, just a few clubs needed some things sorted out but that was it." She answered. "So, did you ask Iori about the sailor uniform?"
Ryuko nodded.
"Yeah. He said that he could get it back together." Ryuko replied.
Satsuki smiled. "That's good news."
Before anything else could be said, Satsuki's phone rang.
The older sister picked it up and saw that she had a text from fellow member of the student council, Information and Strategy Chair, Inumuta Hoka.
The read: Satsuki, the boxing clubs demand to know the whereabouts of their finances. I am trying to calm them down but they won't back down. Help needed ASAP.
After finishing the read, Satsuki sighed as she rubbed her temple.
"You okay sis?" Ryuko asked.
"Meh. There's a club being difficult. I need to aid the council." Satsuki spoke as she got up and walked towards the door. "I'll be back."
"See ya sis."
Two hours later...
Ryuko was watching TV on her bed when Iori knocked.
"Come in." Ryuko spoke and Iori came walking in with a dark mass being held in his arms.
"Is it finished?" Ryuko asked excitedly.
Iori smiled and held up the sailor uniform. Ryuko stared at it incredulously. It was indeed a black sailor uniform, with red trim. However, it was even more unconventional with the stomach being able to be shown with a pair of clasps holding the top and the skirt together. The final and most notable oddity on the uniform was the collar. The right side looked like some sort of yellow and red eye,while the other side looked like a dark eyepatch.
"How do you like it?" Iori wondered.
Ryuko stepped forward and took the outfit from Iori.
"It looks perfect Iori. You did another great job." Ryuko praised.
"Ah, yes well, it's not entirely completed just yet." Iori dug into his pocket and pulled out several dark threads. "There are still some loose threads here. I'd recommend that they'd be hand sewed in. I thought that you might want to do the honours?"
Ryuko smiled wider. "I'd love too."
Ryuko took the threads from Iori and waved goodbye to him as he left.
"Alright you. Let's finish you up and make you whole again."
Oh yes this is great!
Relieved, positive thoughts flowed through Senketsu's mind as Ryuko brought him over to her desk and placed him over it.
Ryuko brought out her sewing tools and began sewing the last few of his life fibres back into his being.
He was finally going to be whole again, but there was one problem: he still couldn't move. He needed blood for that, and he would have preferred Ryuko's blood.
At this point it looks like the taste of your blood will soon become nothing more than a distant memory of mine.
Ryuko was on the last thread, which she was sewing in between Senketsu's eyes. She was being careful not to lead it into his eyes, but then she moved too fast and the needle pricked her finger.
"Ah! Crap!" Ryuko hissed under her breath as she pulled the needle back.
Oh no way. There is no way. My luck can not be this good.
Fortunately, it would seem that Senketsu was wrong as bits of blood was wiped on him from the needle, and more dropped on him from Ryuko's pierced finger.
"Oh no, now it's gonna stain!" Ryuko exclaimed disappointedly but Senketsu was ready to scream with joy as he absorbed the blood.
Senketsu then felt his life fibres come alive and he could feel all of himself once again. The he widened his eyes and jumped up.
"RYUKO!" He screamed ecstatically as he latched onto Ryuko.
"H-HOLY SHIT!"
He's alive!
