The Love Life Of Yuki Nagato
Chapter 2: Magic
Strangely enough, Yuki walked up to us. Stoic, cold and calm. Her body did not retain it's lively glow as it did in my dimension, instead she was paler, physically understated, and plain. Whilst I could never undermine her as a whole.
This simply was not the Yuki I loved. No.
It seems almost stupid, that I am even here, Yuki had some Evil Time-Cracking Nemesis, that simply had to come and ruin all of this, Worst of all, I cant even remember the time leading up to Yuki's death.
Oh well, It doesn't matter now, I'm here, and I'm going to stop this foolishness, Stop Keade, And save Yuki, With or without Koizumi.
She walked up to me and Koizumi, who were rather withdrawn in our social attempts with her, letting her utter the first word.
"Morning"
Monotone, Rather cute, but dull too. This Yuki was a far cry from the one I knew. But she was still the Girl, Well, Woman I loved. And when I say woman, I mean Alien. Strange huh?
I felt as if speaking was forbidden to her, how was I supposed to know what to say? I could create a time paradox, a rift, an anomaly, End the Universe as we know it in a manner of seconds. But I guess that mean's nothing compared to saving Yuki, who in my mind, could halt such an Apocalypse with a simple flick of her magic finger.
"Morning"
Simple, sharp and warm as always, and so far, no strange object's falling from the sky, no bubbling lava or lightning cracks in the sky, but a simple Robin bird fluttering overheard, chirping merrily as Yuki walked closer.
Koizumi rested his chin on my shoulder, Speaking quietly into my ear, not letting Yuki hear.
"Say what you want...So far time is stretched, were in a blank space, Emptiness.."
"What are you on about?.."
"Much like in a Video game, where you can do what you want without fear of consequences."
I nodded with a simple Ok.
"Figures you would relate to that"
I dug my hand's into my pockets, My sleeves lifting up, letting the tail end of the Red ribbon tickle my wrist, IT was warm to my wrist, a sunny glow almost. Most likely because we just hopped through space and time..
Koizumi looked down at my wrist, Looking at Yuki right after, Her eyes widening to my horror! Since when does she?-
She gave me a look. Her eyes wide, and..I felt sheer pain rivet down my back, the look was mortifying, as she turned to me. It was just...Horrifying...
"Kyon?...W..What?"
Yuki sniffed 2 times rather loudly for a few seconds, trying to find the origin of the situation. And the rest? Well...She found the Ribbon...And Umm...
In an instant, the world turned Grey, the sky dimmed, and time stopped. The gentle leaves of the trees above us stood in time. Ever aging and never dying.
"Trespassers. You used a Time and Plane device to enter this Dimension. You will Explain."
Koizumi looked horrified, What the hell?
"Koizumi, What's happening?"
He turned to me, undoing his tie in a hurried fashion whilst staring at Yuki as she spoke.
"Both of you, Identified. You are normal...Your DNA Structure is a perfect match...Explain this.."
Koizumi looked down...Unbuttoning his shirt down 2 buttons.
He ruffled his hair and placed his tie around his shoulders, Almost as if he was a delinquent...To my surprise.
"Remember Me? Yuki?..."
Yuki lowered her guard, and stepped back, Almost as she was...Surprised?...
What the hell is going on here?...
Koizumi turned to me, it was like he was...A new person, I could barely tell it was him, a few ruffles of his hair and an unbuttoned shirt does not seem like much, but his aura, his personality, it was so different.
"2 Day's ago, Kyon, I approached Yuki dressed as I am. During that time, I altered my DNA through Space and Time manipulation, for a few minutes, I was another being. I approached her, and said that when I next appear, It will only be in the most extreme situation, my knowledge of her, and her alien heritage was easily enough to make her agree. And when the time that I next showed, I said that she must listen to me. I understand how powerful Yuki is, But not even she could know It was me. She was intrigued to who I was, and now I'm here...Things get interesting."
"Why? I thought you knew what happened?"
He looked towards me, struggling against the thick air of the Grey space.
"This has never happened before Kyon...Never before in this mission has Yuki seen the TPDD..."
Shit...
"But! Shouldn't we be dead then?"
Yuki stood in silence, looking at me and Koizumi, turning her head to each of us as we began talking. For the first time in history, the Android Yuki...Didn't know what was going on.
"I'm not sure, But we need to find Mikuru and tell her, or more so ask her what is going on. This is ridiculous..."
Yuki released us from the Grey area. Dropping us to the ground with a rather loud thud. And me and Koizumi wriggled on the ground, barely amassing the strength to lift ourselves off the ground.
"Move, Koizumi!"
"For god sake will you get away from me Kyon, I cant even get up!"
Yuki walked closer towards us, and surprisingly, Held out both hand's for us to grab.
Helping us stand? Since when does Yuki ever touch any living thing?
We promptly grabbed her outstretched arm, as she lifted us up with ease and poise. And as we dusted ourselves off, Yuki began to speak as she walked next to us, through the black school gates.
"I apologize. You must relay to me your intentions and reason's for entering this dimension. I trust, though. You have removed Yourselves from this dimension?"
Koizumi Nodded, Buttoning his shirt back up and smoothing his hair back down as Yuki walked infront of us and turned around.
"Please, Come to the clubroom to discuss this."
We both nodded as Yuki walked away without a single goodbye, she entered the school. And did not even look at us again as she walked away through the school corridor.
Koizumi turned to me.
"Mikuru is, or should be in school now, we need to find her. And tell her what happened."
Being with the old Nagato was a welcome change, i'll admit. Knowing she was around to protect us all was a very welcome fact. No matter how she showed it, or told us about it, I knew deep down. She cared for us, but she was just unable to show it. She, at this time was barely grasping the concept of emotion. And today was the day we talked about it in the clubroom. Today was the day she invited me around her apartment. And today was the day it all changed.
But Koizumi had a better Idea...Supposedly.
"Adapting to a current situation and not outwardly showing concern is something I've gotten better at, But this time it's a struggle. This is different. You were not supposed to show that Red Ribbon to her. But you did...So I'm kinda' confused, and worried about what else might happen"
"So...If I paid enough attention to Mikuru...We created another time branch?"
"Precisely"
As me and Koizumi entered the school. The smell of wooden varnish hit Koizumi pretty hard, turning his face to disgust as he hurried up the stairs toward's the clubroom, so speak to Mikuru, and No doubt, Haruhi. Who would be Sexually Harassing, or Sexually Belittling Haruhi in some shape or form...
Koizumi entered the clubroom slowly, creaking the door open, and as it opened ever more, the screams got much..Much louder.
"Suzumiya-Sa-!"
Koizumi slammed the door shut, his face red, hot and flustered.
"What is it?"
The turned to me in amazement.
"They. Are. Huge"
Figures, on the face lies a pleasant guy, but we all know Koizumi underneath all this gentleman-like face, lies the very soul of every man in the universe. Pervertedness.
We waited outside for around 3 Minutes in silence, watching the bird's flying overhead. The time almost slowed to a crawl. The ticking of the above clock almost hypnotising as I tried to guess if a second was truly just a second.
Weird, I know.
"It's Weird, Kyon...Yuki was completely unaware of us at first. It kind of make's me feel happy."
"How come?"
"She could of killed us in a fraction of a second. Yet we convinced her not to, we have her trust and loyalty...The loyalty of the strongest, fiercest, yet...Calmest person I know..."
"Well, I've seen her fight before..."
"Eh? When?"
"Ages ago, Ryoko Asakura was an Alien, As you know, they fought one another. Yuki was impaled by around 8 Metal poles that Asakura threw at her. Blood was every were, Yet she showed no signs of pain, and won the fight almost instantly...But.."
"But what?"
"She jumped into the poles to protect me..."
A few more awkward minutes passed, Before Koizumi spoke.
"It's pretty quiet inside of that room...Mikuru was screaming her lungs out a few second's ago.."
Koizumi gently pushed the door open, revealing inside the room. A warm glow reflecting fro the polished table, steaming cup's of tea.
The buzzing atmosphere of the room was killed in an instant, the life was gone. It reeked of more Time travel caused rubbish.
But in the corner, Sat one Timid, withdrawn.
Yuki Nagato.
"Kyon, This is a time-Rip, It's normal, Hopping between dimensions...Isn't easy, time get's stuck, much like a record, time will catch up to us. In around...Say..3 Minutes?.."
Yuki turned to us both, shutting her book rather aggressively.
"As I thought. You caused the Space and time Decay. We have exactly 175 Second's before the Time Matrix return's. Please explain the current situation to me."
"Why are you here? And why did the other 2 leave?"
"Suzumiya-San and Mikuru, Despite the power they possess were unable to detect or fight against the Time Shift, I was prepared, Due to my meeting with both of you. Disaster averted."
Koizumi never really spoke to Yuki, But when He did, the result's were amazing, such as now..
"But How did you stop it?"
"Magic"
Yuki looked at him. Not laughing. Was she being serious?...
"Ugh...Kyon, It's your job to tell her...Tell her everything, but be ready for what happens..."
"What could happen?"
He leaned closer to me, cupping my ear.
"Yuki could return to her human state, with all her memories. Thing's will be right as rain and we can carry on with our mission. Or...Time itself could tear in half...Your call."
Ugh...
Here we go I guess. Were going to revert time. Crack open Yuki's future.
Tell her everything.
Me and Her.
Keade.
Her Death...
Let's just hope it goes right...
A/N: Total filler chapter here, I'm simply finding it hard to write as hard as I have before, Lot'sa stuff on my mind. But some review's would of course, as you all know cheer me right up. Thank's for Reading, And I promise the "Plot" of the story will be revealed next chapter.
Au Revoir!
