Konata was crying… She wasn't sure when she started or for how long, but it seemed like she had been sobbing forever…
Her head was pounding and she felt a trickle of blood run down her arm, but despite all the pain she was in she knew she had to stand up… She knew she didn't have a choice right now, she had to get up. Upon standing Konata wiped the tears from her eyes and scanned the surrounding area… The sight she saw made her break…
"No, no… NOOOOOO!" A bloody and shrill scream ripped through the silence as Konata dropped to her knees, tears now clouding her vision to an extreme…
All her friends… Everyone lay dead on the gravel of that forsaken park; some decapitated lying in a pool of their own blood… Those monsters… Those horrible thugs stood chuckling to themselves, not a scratch on them…
"It seems you are the last to die, Konata…" Kurono said with a hiss as he turned to face her. "However, we are saving the honor of slitting your throat for our boss…" Kurono chuckled evilly, quickly joined by all the goons standing around.
Konata couldn't run, she couldn't even move except her mouth and eyes… Her only hope was to distract him long enough for help to arrive. "I thought you were the big boss!" Konata said with a weak attempt at a mocking tone.
Konata was shocked to see his smile only get bigger at her statement. "Oh no, there is someone higher in command… Look at that here he comes now…" Kurono laughed out loud again as he and his thugs slowly back away until they were barely visible.
For the first time Konata noticed that she could only see as far as her friend's bodies the rest was blocked by a heavy gray mist... Soon she saw a man or what she assumed was a man walk out of the strange mist and straight towards her, not even flinching as he stepped in the pools of blood…
The man was dressed in a black hooded rob like one the ghost of Christmas future would wear, but she did not feel like mocking him about it.
"It was your fault she died… You must die too…" Konata heard the hooded man speak in a tone that she was having trouble deciphering; it sound angry, yet sadness was just flowing from his voice…
"Who died? I didn't hurt anyone!" Konata shouted pleadingly as the man got closer, every step he took towards her brought Konata to a new level of terror inside.
The man didn't reply he just kept walking until he was a few feet from her… The man slowly reached up and began to pull back his hood and as soon as he did Konata recognized him immediately…
"Daddy…?" Konata sobbed; she felt so many different emotions right at that moment happiness, anxiety, grief, anger… However, the worst and most pressing feeling was that of fear; the fear of what this man would do to her…
"I am sorry…" Sojiro said with tears in his eyes as he raised a gun and pointed it straight at Konata's head… Despite the pleading and cries of mercy from Konata he pulled the trigger…
…
Konata awoke with a start as she bolted into a sitting position on the bed, injuring her head slightly due to her minor concussion; she just couldn't help it that was the worst nightmare yet and Konata had had some terrible nightmares…
"That is the eighth one tonight…" Konata sobbed quietly, Kagami had turned in her sleep and was now faced away from the small girl. It had only been three and a half hours since Konata had woken from her daylong slumber and she didn't understand how one person could have so many terrible nightmares in only three hours.
Konata's sobbing had gotten louder and the blunette quickly noticed that her tsundere started to shift in her sleep as if she were uncomfortable. "I want at least one of us to get some sleep tonight…" Konata thought as she grabbed her pillow and quietly made her way into the hallway. IT was dark in the hallway, but she could cry a little louder so Konata was fine with the lack of light…
Konata wasn't sure if it had been twenty minutes or six hours that she had been sitting in the darkened hallway, but she was soon startled out of her half sleep state by Miki who had happened to see her sitting there.
"Konata what's the matter, why aren't you in bed?" Miki said as she crouched by sobbing girl, she thought that she had heard crying from her room and this confirmed it.
"I had nightmares… Didn't want to wake Kagami…" Konata said weakly; he was tired and hurt, mentally and physically, she just wanted to curl up in someone's arms and sleep peacefully, but she wouldn't wake up Kagami because she was a pansy.
"Why didn't you come to me then?" Miki asked as she wrapped her arms around Konata and pulled her into a gentle hug.
"I…I…I…" The small otaku stumbled over her words; she would have loved more than anything to have ran into Miki's room and asked to be held, but this wasn't her mother and she didn't want to be a bother to her…
"Come on baby, Mr. Hiiragi is away on business so you can sleep with me tonight." Miki said in a soothing voice as she helped Konata to her feet and led her towards the master bedroom.
"Please don't let me be a bother, I don't…" Konata began sobbing quietly, but was stopped by Miki's finger gently resting on her lips.
"Hush now, it will all be ok, I'm here now…" Miki whispered as she led Konata into the bathroom and started to clean up her tear streaked face. "Let's make you a bit more comfortable." Miki said caringly as she removed the bandage on Konata's head so her wounds could breathe a bit.
After cleaning up what she claimed as 'her newest little girl' and placing her gently in the bed; Miki crawled in on the other side and gently, but firmly cuddled the small girl. "It is all okay now, nothing bad will happen while I'm here…" Miki whispered as she started to stroke Konata's hair in a soothing manner.
Konata felt warm all over, it was not the same as when Kagami held her it was a different warmth, foreign almost, but Konata recognized it as love nonetheless as she started to slowly nod off into the dream world.
"Hello is anyone there?" Konata called out into her dream.
This dream was different than the ones before it; in this dream Konata found herself standing in a meadow of nothing but grass, there were no trees or hills, just grass and an endless blue sky.
"Konata… My sweet baby girl…" A voice said sweetly from somewhere behind Konata.
The little otaku instantly felt tears flooding down her cheeks; Konata slowly turned around to see a petite women standing about ten feet away from her, long cerulean hair blowing in the gentle breeze and her emerald eyes filled with love.
"Mama…" Konata bit back a sob as she looked at her mom standing so close to her after so long.
"Come here… It has been so long since I last held you in my arms…" Kanata said with that tender loving tone that only a mother could have.
It wasn't real; it was just a dream… Konata knew she was going to run right through this mirage like image… So why was she running with all her might? Why did her vision become so clouded with tears at the sound of her mom's voice when she knew this was just a dream…
It wasn't a dream… Konata didn't know how, but her mom was with her and she wasn't going to pass this up for anything in the world… Konata had only gotten to tell her mother that she loved her once before she died; she just had to say it again… The first thing she had to say…
"I love you, I love you, I love you!" Konata sobbed as her she tackled her mom and to her surprise Kanata caught her rather easily.
"I know baby, I know…" Kanata whispered, soothing the hysterically crying girl as she sat them both down in the soft grass; Konata still clutching her waist to prevent her from disappearing again.
"I missed you so much, this is you right?" Konata asked as her tears more or less subsided, at least she wasn't hindered by them anymore.
"Yes Konata, I am real and this isn't an ordinary dream…" Kanata said as she began wiping the tears away from Konata's eyes, only to have new tears take their place and the cycle repeated.
"How…?" Konata managed to squeak as she laid her head in her mother's lap, enjoying the immense feeling of love and peace she felt.
"The judges, please don't ask me to explain, but they watch over everyone and they have seen all the hardships you've had in life… As have I…" Kanata said with a caring smile as she pulled Konata up into her lap. "They granted me the ability to talk to you through this dream… But this is the only time." Kanata said sadly and was a bit surprised to see her daughter smiling.
"Tell them thank you for me, it means everything to me that I get to see you again… I love you so much Mama… I have so much I want to say!" Konata said joyously, but had no idea how much time they had or what she should cover first.
Don't worry dear; you will stay asleep until you have said all you need to." Kanata said as if she read her little girl's thoughts, smiling now as well.
"Okay good, but I talk a lot is there something you want to say first?" Konata asked softly as she snuggled closer to her mom.
"Don't worry about your father…" Kanata said with a sly grin.
"You aren't gonna give him like, eternal punishment are you?" Konata asked a bit afraid for him; she still loved her dad even if he had hurt her.
"No silly, I can't say much about it, but the next time you see him tell him that Kanata said to give her the ring." Kanata said as she poked Konata's nose.
"Okay?" Konata said confused, but got a laugh out of her mom so it was all right.
"Also don't push Miki away; I know you feel like you are betraying me when you let her be a mom to you, but don't… I want someone to do my job since I can't and she is the best person for that job." The older women said still smiling that sweet and loving smile.
"What do you mean that she is the best for the job?" Konata asked in confusion not fully understanding what her mom had meant.
"Well you need a mother figure since I'm not there and since you are in love with Kagami…" Kanata said teasingly, giggling slightly.
"Wait how did you…?" Konata asked dumfounded, now sporting a bright crimson blush.
"You always put up such a tough outer wall, but you are just a shy sensitive girl inside aren't you?" Kanata teased again. "Like I said I am always watching you, and I always will." Kanata leaned down and kissed her daughter on the forehead.
"Thanks Mama… Just one thing though." Konata said as she looked up into her mom's face with a very serious expression.
"Yes dear?" Kanata said trying to suppress a giggle.
"No peaking when me and Kagami do… Well you know… That…" Konata said as she blushed again, but they were both soon laughing.
"Deal now make sure to tell me everything." Kanata said as she held her little girl close, as she talked about everything from anime she had seen to the games she had played, and her love for Kagami…
After years of training Miki woke up dutifully at exactly seven thirty she could not explain why, she guessed it was her motherly instinct to wake up and make her kids breakfast, but this particular morning she found a little trespasser in her schedule.
"It has been a long time since I have had to take care of someone like this." Miki thought as a smile made its way onto her face; Konata was sleeping within her embrace and had the cutest little smile.
"Well I can't leave her here; she was having such bad nightmares…" Miki thought, how could she go down and make breakfast, but still be with this girl who needed to be held.
"Well it is a crazy thought, and I haven't had to do that since Tsukasa was little, but since she is so small…" Miki thought with a smirk before getting out of bed.
"Hey how are you feeling Konata?" Kagami asked groggily; seeing how she had just woken up, but when she turned to see her girlfriend, she was not there. Kagami got up, looked in all the upstairs bedrooms in case the blunette got restless and went to bother someone, but she was nowhere to be found.
"Konata where are you?" Kagami asked as she walked through the hallway and down the stairs.
Kagami flushed a deep shade of red as soon as she turned the corner at the bottom of the stairs, there was her mom like always cooking breakfast in the kitchen, but today she had a little hindrance.
She was holding Konata like one would hold a baby, Konata had her arms around Miki's neck and her legs wrapped around Miki's waist and was resting her head on Miki's shoulder, Miki had an arm firmly under Konata's bottom to help support her. "Good morning Kagami." Miki said cheerfully.
"She is so cute!" Kagami squealed as quietly as she could.
"Isn't she? She keeps mumbling and it is so adorable!" Miki giggle and as if on cue Konata mumbled the word tsundere.
"AWWWWW! But why are you carrying her mom?" Kagami asked as walked up behind her and moved some hair from Konata's face.
After explaining what had happened the night before and the state she found Konata in Miki began to explain why she was holding her the way she was. "…I couldn't just leave her so this is how we ended up." Miki said finishing her explanation.
"Well that explains a whole bunch!" Matsuri said rather loudly, startling both her sister and mother.
"How long have you guys been there?" Kagami asked clutching her chest, Matsuri, Inori, and Tsukasa had come down the stairs just in time to hear the story.
"Sorry sis, I was going to say something but…" Tsukasa started to explain.
"But we didn't want to miss the chance to freak you out!" Matsuri said teasingly as she finished her little sister's explanation for her.
"But that is not…" Again, Tsukasa tried to say but it would prove futile.
"Why do you feel the need to act like an idiot so early in the morning?" Kagami asked as she crossed her arms, glaring at her big sister threateningly.
"I'll show you who's an idiot!" Matsuri said as she started to pull on Kagami's cheeks, while Kagami began pulling on Matsuri's hair, their fight escalating quickly.
"They have forgotten all about me…" Tsukasa sighed, but couldn't help giggle at her family.
"Guys' if you don't keep it down…" Inori tried to explain, but she was too late.
"Both noisy Idiots…" Konata mumbled in her sleep as she snuggled closer to Miki's neck.
Inori, Miki, and Tsukasa couldn't help but laugh at the revelation that was given to them from Konata, both the idiots in question stopped their bickering to turn away from each other and blush.
"Jeez Konata…" Kagami said with a sigh, although not really mad.
"Alright breakfast is ready you four." Miki said as she stopped her little giggle fit and began serving them breakfast. "Things are never dull with Konata around." Miki thought happily.
They had all finished eating breakfast and decided to just sit around the table and talk until the smaller girl woke up; they talked about a few different things, but the longer they talked the more Konata seemed to get restless in her sleep.
"I heard from the news last night that a storm is heading our way." Miki said casually after a small bit of thunder shook the house, Miki felt Konata tense at the sound and slowly began to rub her back in small circles that seem to help her relax.
"Yeah it just started to rain." Tsukasa said as she looked out a nearby window.
The group suddenly heard a soft whimpering noise and since Konata shifted in her sleep her tears streaked face was now completely visible. "Bye Mama… I love you…" Konata mumbled in her sleep as fresh tears started to roll down her cheeks; it didn't take long after that for Konata to finally wake up.
"Huh where am I?" Konata asked as she wiped off her face, after looking at her surroundings she immediately started to blush at the situation she had found herself in.
Once Miki and the Hiiragi girls managed to stop their giggling she explained why Konata was where she was; soon Konata was at her spot at the table enjoying her breakfast, large smile adorning her face.
"So are you done having nightmares?" Kagami asked as she sat by the older girl at the table.
"Yeah the last dream I had… It was the best dream I could have ever asked for." Konata said with one of the warmest smiles Kagami had ever seen. "I will never forget it…" The blunette trailed off as she continued to eat.
"That's good, but how are you feeling today?" Kagami asked as she placed a hand on Konata's forehead, which was slightly hot.
"I feel fine Kagamin~." Konata whined as she pushed Kagami's hand away not wanting to be fondled with so early.
"Okay if you say so…" Kagami sighed as she pulled her hand back.
"Good… Now if you will excuse me…" Konata said suddenly as she jumped up from the table and ran up the stairs for Kagami's room; before Kagami could go see what was up Konata came back down the stair as zipped right out the door.
"Oi, Kona wait a second!" Kagami called out wondering what had gotten into that girl; she was just about to run after her when Miki place a hand on her shoulder to stop her.
"I have to go out for a few things anyway, let me follower her." Miki said in a tone that Kagami had not heard in a long time, it was a tone of worry and caring; Kagami knew that her mom cared for Konata so with a nod Kagami stepped aside and let her mom run after the tiny girl…
"She still has a fever mom, please hurry." Kagami said weakly, worry evident in her voice.
"It will be okay, get Tsukasa ready we have to be at the court house in one hour." Miki said with a reassuring smile as she turned and ran into the rain after the small blunette…
Konata had never felt more blissful, yes she had a slight concussion, yes she had a badly cut arm, but none of that compared to the joy she had at seeing her mom again and being able to talk to her. She had told her mom all kinds of things, ideas, thoughts, and concepts she had that she did not trust telling anyone else, she just could not be any happier.
Konata had rounded a corner and there it was; now you would think most people coming to a graveyard would have depressed looks on their face or be crying their eyes out, but this spunky little girl defied all those images as she went bounding through the graveyard with a huge smile on her face.
"I love you so much Mama!" Konata shouted as she hugged her mother's headstone. "I miss you already; wish you could talk to me every night." Konata said not nearly as loud as before, but still with her happy little tone; unbeknownst to her she was being watched from a few yards off…
"I wonder what she means." Miki thought as she watched the small girl talk to the head stone, she had seen people come and talk to their loved ones that had passed on, but never had she seen someone carry on a one-sided conversation with a headstone so happily.
As Miki watched the smaller girl she started to feel a bit dizzy; in fact her vision was getting very hazy and sounds suddenly stopped reaching her ears, her first thought was that she had just had a heart attack, but the voice that suddenly filled her head comforted her before she could act on anything.
"Hello Miki…" The voice said sweetly and Miki could easily tell it was a female's voice, the image suddenly forming in front of her confirmed it for her. "Please take good care of my daughter…" The woman said as her form flickered, almost like she was having a hard time staying there.
"Kanata is that you?" Miki asked stunned at what she was experiencing at that moment.
"Can I trust you to protect my daughter?" Kanata asked with a smile.
"Of course, I will love her like she was my own!" Miki said with a smile of her own; she knew how much it must hurt Kanata to not be there for her daughter, but she was happy that she had proven to be good enough to raise such a little angel.
"Then I will leave her in your care… Goodbye Miki…" Kanata said with a caring smile as she started to fade.
"Goodbye my friend…" Miki whispered as the world around her suddenly became normal again; Miki caught sight of Konata again and slowly walked over to her, crouched down, and put her hand on the younger girl's shoulder.
Konata looked up at the older women and their eyes met, a silent understanding went between them.
"Would it be okay if I called you Mom…?" Konata asked a bit uncertainly, as she stood up and brushed the dirt off her skirt.
"Nothing would make me happier." Miki said as she hugged the blunette tightly. "Now we need to get to the courthouse, you are the most important person in this case!" Miki said with exuberance.
"Let's go!" Konata shouted as she and Miki walked away from the graveyard, they did not notice the shimmering figure at the top of the hill watching them walk away with a smile…
"We are coming to you live from the Hiroshima District Courthouse where the trial of a group of thugs will soon begin…" A women reporter said to the camera right in front of the courthouse.
As Miki, Konata, and the Hiiragi girl's walked up they heard the woman tell the camera operator and all the people watching at home all about the group of thugs, what they had done, and all about their past… This included Konata…
"The poor, sweet, and lovable girl has been taking their abuse for years, authority's claim they had suspicions but did not act on them; they say they will crack down harder on any developing gangs…" The women said with a slight frown as she told all the hundreds of people about Konata, her hobbies, and how she was ridiculed for them; the women then chastised anyone who thought badly about her because of those hobbies.
Konata and Miki had went home before this so they could change and Konata really regretted it, she had to sit in front of a lot of people and Kagami wanted her to be cute… Kagami made her wear the dress from the theme park. It was a white sleeveless dress with bright green trim, she wore pale green flip-flops/sandals, and had her hair tied up in a ponytail with ribbon that matched her eyes.
"I feel silly Kagami." Konata whined as she tried to hide behind the others.
"Nonsense Konata you look super cute!" Kagami squealed a bit too loud, attracting the women's attention.
"Is Miss Izumi here?" The women asked excitedly as she walked over to the group with the camera still rolling live.
"Yes Ma'am…" Konata said sheepishly as she walked out from behind Inori and Matsuri, who were trying to fix their hair inconspicuously so the people watching would not know they were not prepared.
"May we have an interview before the trial?" The women asked enthusiastically as the camera zoomed in to capture Konata's adorable blushing face.
"S-sure." Konata managed to say, she never had a fear of what people thought of her, she was always acting out, but the thought of hundreds of thousands of people watching her, well that would make anyone nervous.
The women asked Konata about everything, her past, her goals, and her personal life. Konata did her best to answer the questions without embarrassing herself to much.
"Do you have a love interest?" The women asked as the camera got a bit closer.
"I um, well you see…" Konata was a bright pink as she was trying to look everywhere but at the camera.
"CHIBI!" Misao shouted loudly; she had been standing off a ways and saw the whole thing, she knew Konata would not be able to answer that question on live TV so since she was an attention hog… "I am so glad to see you up and around!" Misao said as she hugged the smaller girl, getting an upset grunt from Kagami.
"Are you one of the girls she saved?" The women asked as the camera shifted to bring Misao into focus.
"Yep Chibi here saved me from getting knifed in the face!" Misao cheered happily, as she rubbed her cheek on Konata's getting a giggle out of the small blunette; Misao had already decided that her and Konata were going to be best friends.
"What is your name dear?" The women asked sweetly.
"Misao… Misao Kusakabe." The fanged girl said as she let the smaller girl go from her hug.
"You mean to tell me that the thug leader is…" The women gasped as the camera caught it all live.
"Yeah my older brother and speak of that devil." Misao said with a scowl as the group turned their attention to the approaching police cars.
As the cars pulled up the three thugs were brought out and lead into the courtroom, their faces full of sorrow and regret. However, not Kurono he walked out of the police car as if he was a celebrity, as the reporters swarmed him with questions as Yui and two officers led him to the courthouse.
"Of course I am not sorry." The thug boss sneered at one of the reporters. "I taught that little bitch a lesson…" Kurono looked straight at Konata as the cameras caught them both in a stare down. "…And I would do it again!" Kurono said loudly as he made a small jump toward the small otaku, causing her to scream in terror and hide behind her friends.
All of a sudden, the crowd parted as a man ran up and his fist connected with the teens face with a wickedly loud crack.
"Who the hell, I'll kill you!" Kurono said as he stood up and rubbed his now broken and bleeding nose, Konata just stared wide eyed as the cameras all backed up to catch this scene… On live TV.
The man charged and again knocked the teen down with another blow to the face, but instead of letting him get up this time, the man just crouched down and began mercilessly punch the bleeding criminal in the face repetitively.
The two police men started to advance, but Yui (Who was a higher rank then them) told them to 'blind-eye' this one.
"How dare you touch my daughter!" Sojiro screamed in sadness and anger. "If you ever touch her again I will kill you myself!" Sojiro said as he relentlessly pounded Kurono in the face.
By this time the cops stopped listening to their commander and went to break up the fight, but Yui was satisfied her uncle had done what he needed to do.
Sojiro made a few grumbling noises as the police pulled him off of the teen he had badly injured, he dusted off the jacket he was wearing and warily turned around, to be greeted with a sight worse than anything… His daughter crying…
"Konata I…" Sojiro started, but he faltered he did not know what to say to make it better; to be honest he didn't think he could.
"Don't just stand there make her feel better, apologize!" Kagami yelled at him snapping him from his daze.
"Konata I am so sorry." Sojiro said as he wrapped his arms around his daughter, to his surprise she wrapped her arms around him back. "I know I was a terrible father, I ignored you just because you reminded me of Kanata, when you said you were having trouble at school… I…" His voice faltered again.
"Swear you will make it up to me…" Konata said quietly, so quiet that the cameras that were still rolling almost did not hear her… Almost.
"I swear I will do anything, I know I can't make up for all those years but…" Sojiro said as he hugged her tighter, feeling his shirt start to become damp with her tears.
"You don't hate me anymore?" Konata asked still crying.
"I never did Konata; I was just confused is all." Sojiro said as he wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Can we go to the theme park after this…? I always wanted to ride the Merry Go 'Round with you…" Konata said softly, her big green eyes filled with a longing... A longing for a father who loved her to no end and would do fatherly things with her; Sojiro could handle that.
"Of course we can, we can do anything you want Konata because I love you." Sojiro said with a huge smile, which quickly disappeared once he saw his daughter face.
Konata's face showed no emotion as she turned around and started to walk away from him, but once she hit about ten feet she turned around with a huge smile of her own. "I love you too Daddy!" Konata yelled as she jumped in the air only to be caught by Sojiro, he understood now Konata wanted to do all the things she never got to when she was little… Yeah, he could handle that.
A huge awe went out from the crowd as the reporters started to return in front of their cameras. "And that was just about the sweetest ending you could ask for…" The women said as the camera panned from her to the small blushing blunette still being held in her father's arms.
"Cheers to Kurono for being locked away!" Misao cheered happily as she lifted her cup into the air.
"Cheers to Onee-chan and uncle making up with each other!" Yutaka cheered as she followed Misao's lead and lifted her cup in the air.
"Cheers to Konata for finally having the happy life that she has always wanted." Kagami whispered softly into the otaku ear, but everyone else heard her anyway.
"You guys are so awesome…" Konata said as she looked at all her friend's sitting around her in the tsundere's bedroom; true she had forgiven her dad, but she had gotten so used to living with the Hiiragi family that she didn't want to leave.
"I hope you guys will be my friend's forever…" Konata said sniffling a bit, as her eyes started to get watery.
"Aw time for a group hug!" Patty shouted as she ran over and glomped the blunette.
Konata could not be happier, she had gotten to talk to her mom and found a new one in Miki, she had her father's love again and had never been happier with him, and she had a loving girlfriend and was being smothered by all her friends…
"I love life…"Konata thought as she smiled.
