Chapter 3: I hate this Village

Megumi Shimizu, almost all the guys at school had a Fanboy crush on her, including Masao Murasako—though he was a little more extreme. One might think that Megumi spying on Natsuno was creepy, but Masao did a Peeping Tom on her in the shower, before Natsuno even arrived to the village. To make matters worse, Masao couldn't stand anybody—not even his own family. But that'll be for another chapter.

It was clear as day that Megumi hated the village, and for good reason. Ever since birth, she was an unfortunate misfit—every bit, from what she wore, to the way she thought—making her the laughing stock of the entire place.

Megumi's Point of View:

Who cares about Buddhist statues?! These are just plain rocks!

I hate this Village!

As you can see, there's nothing here...As much as I hate to admit it, this is where I was born.

There's not even a single clothing store around...not even a place to have a cup of tea!

Once I graduate, I'm definitely going to college in a big city! Then I'll be discovered by talent scouts! And at night, I'll hang out in clubs!

Connor:

So far, I've seen no sign of Soul Edge. However, it is definitely here.

Wait...did I hear someone say they hated the village?

Huh...that must be the Megumi Shimizu girl the Yuuki boy told me about.

I don't get it...how can he hate someone as beautiful as her just because of a bad "Stalking" habit?

"Hey..." Megumi turned and saw a white-haired young man looking right at her, "Are you Megumi Shimizu?"

"Um...yeah." She responded in a nervous tone, "Why? How do you know my name?"

"First, tell me...do you hate every single thing in this village?"

"Actually, there are two things in this village that I care about."

"Like..."

"One is a big, European-style house, which was suddenly built on some land"

Connor turned to where Megumi was looking, and saw a huge mansion up on a hill—it looked like the ones from his home, except darker in tone, and not because of Soul Edge.

"It's beautiful..." She continued, "I wonder what kind of people are going to be living there."

"It looks like a place Count Dracula would call home!"

"True...but at least it's a change in this place!"

"I see..."

"The other thing is the city exchange student, Yuuki!"

So the Yuuki boy is from the big city...Connor thought to himself.

"He's so cool! It would be a dream come true if I could live with him in that big beautiful house!"

"Speaking of which, I actually met him earlier, and that's where I heard your name."

"Then you know that he must hate me, don't you?"

"Actually he didn't say anything, except that he wishes you would stop looking through his window to learn his secrets."

"He knows?!"

"What secrets do you know?"

Megumi paused for a moment, "I only do it to catch a glimpse of him. I don't know anything."

Connor reassured her, "I was personally curious! But tell me, what is his first name? It's just confusing calling him by two last names."

Sorry for the cliffhangers, I just want to build suspense.
