The Truth
…………………………………………………………………………..
Haruhi heard the sounds of stabbing but when she didn't feel the pain she was sure to feel, she opened her eyes and almost got sick from the sight before her. "YUKI." Nagato Yuki was there suspended in the air in front of her. Metal spikes were sticking right through her chest and abdomen with blood every where. She was going to die. Yuki was going to die right in front of her – killed by her classmate. "Are you crazy Asakura? Stop this at once." Haruhi stood up and extended her hand towards Yuki. "Are you alright Yuki?" She asked a little spooked.
"Hm. There is no permanent damage." Yuki said that with her usual tone as if she hadn't just been plunged through. She pulled the spikes in her body with ease and her feet touched the ground again but she staggered and Haruhi found her arms reaching out to steady the smaller girl. Yuki looks up at Haruhi with that same face she wears but somehow, Haruhi knows she is being thanked. "What is the purpose of acting without orders No. 50745 codenamed Asakura Ryoko? You're under my jurisdiction. I have no records of permitting you into direct contact with the subject. Explain yourself or you will be forced to meet your judgment."
You would think that something alike said by the always motive Yuki would shake anyone in their boots but Asakura Ryoko just continued smiling. "I was expecting your arrival soon enough 'Nagato-san'. I felt the little data you put in this place I created so that you may be able to enter it but that was a very bad mistake. You see I used that little amount to devise a way to stop you erase you from this plane of existence. "Ryoko continued looking her knife over and over in her hands all the while smiling. Things were, as the humans say, in her favour. "You are actually the reason that I decided to come after the test subject knowing that you won't be able to get in my way. This space was basically created for a different reason."
"Whatever your reasoning is, I will not allow you to harm Suzumiya Haruhi." Yuki said after a few silent seconds. Very rarely, Haruhi just stood there behind Yuki saying nothing though anyone could see a million things going through her head through her stormy eyes. She wasn't sure what the hell was going on but it looked to her that Asakura was going to kill Yuki and then come after her seeing as Yuki was protecting her. She decided to just settle and watch what is going on and get a better understanding. She saw Ryoko's mouth move then but at the rate that was definitely not speaking any known earth language. The scene around them started to change. The floor disappeared and when Haruhi looked down, she could see the little reflections that she could make out were houses.
Seeing that, made her come to a conclusion that they were in air but the pressure was still the same as what was in the class room. Where the windows and walls were, now there was nothing but the huge half set sun. It was a beautiful sight and it was then that everything that had happened in the last moments registered to Haruhi. The classroom change that she was sure was Asakura's doing and the way Yuki seemed completely okay after that stabbing she just went through. This was by far not even remotely normal which meant, "You are aliens! You are, aren't you?" Haruhi couldn't comprehend her luck but fuck luck. She had finally come into contact with what she sought. She knew that there was something really off about Yuki Nagato from the first time they met but to think that she was an alien.
"Ah I see you've finally grasped the truth subject Suzumiya Haruhi. Yes, we are bio engineered beings made by another planet's civilisation far away from this solar system. Rest assured though that we aren't the only abnormal ones in this..." Ryoko was interrupted when Yuki charged her with a baseball bat made of steel but where it connected with her arm, the arm just phased through the bat and returned to normal as fast to deliver a left hook to Yuki's exposed cheek and send her crashing back. "As I was saying, we aren't the only ones, well, we are the only aliens but there are quite a few espers and a certain time traveller that you know very well." What was she talking about? Haruhi didn't know any time travellers or else she wouldn't have spent all this time looking for answers.
"Your eyes tell me that you don't know as to whom I'm referring to. I will clarify – it's Asahina Mikuru." Shock this is a joke, right? There is no way that cute Mikuru-chan is a time traveller, yet still Haruhi had many times wished she was a time traveller from the future hence why she had cast her as such in the Adventures of Mikuru-chan. Now that she thought of it, Yuki had been cast as the evil alien. This was just a coincidence right? She couldn't though ignore the shaking of her heart at the sheer excitement she was feeling at the moment. If the rules stayed the same, this would mean that cool Koizumi-kun was an esper? "Koizumi Itsuki-san is the esper just so you have not figured it out yet. You see all the things you have been looking for have been right there under your own nose."
"Well, that is all good but I have to get proof that you are who my creators think you are. I don't like working in the dark so to speak but before that..." Ryoko turned to the now standing Yuki and they squared off. The knife she had in her right hand transformed into a Japanese sword and in a whisk of air she was upon Yuki. She brought the sword down and Haruhi was only able to see that first movement only. The strikes that followed that were too fast for the eye to see. The sounds of denser and light steel clashing could be heard in all the light flashes going on. It was like a real movie and Haruhi was almost flying with amusement for her part.
Real live aliens were right there in front of her eyes duking it out. Why they haven't told her yet of their real identities, she didn't know. She had been thinking of getting to see or meet something as exciting as this and they were right in front of her. Did she have some strange power that she didn't know of? It was her after all that brought them together. Well, since that fateful day in her earlier years she knew she was different from everyone else but to think that this would happen. God indeed was in heaven and all was right with the world. Oh, she could just think of the exciting things she is going to be doing from now on. Who knew happiness as huge as she felt existed?
Haruhi was forced out of her thoughts however when something came crashing near her. She focused on the present and saw that Yuki's ass was being handed to her. Just as Yuki got to her feet with a little difficulty, a kick connected with her waste and sent her flying, again, a few meters away. Haruhi was getting frustrated by this crazy girl. If she wanted to fight then she might as well pick on someone her own size. Suzumiya didn't know where her fears went but seeing her brigade member being kicked around didn't please her in the least. She was the Commander of the S.O.S Brigade and she would be damned if she let one of her member get made an ass of. She was a member of the martial arts club once so she knew ways of how to defend her self and attack if need be.
"Look here class-rep, I don't know what your beef is with us but stop messing up my Yuki and come pick on someone your own size." Ryoko who had been going over to the downed Yuki stopped and turned that still smiling face towards Haruhi. Just then Haruhi realised that she didn't have a weapon and was meaning to fight a superior being who wields a sword! "Hey Yuki, get off your butt and throw me a weapon, hurry." Yuki got up from the floor with a bit widening eyes. She wondered what Suzumiya Haruhi was thinking by going up against someone who was far stronger than her but when she saw Ryoko move, she used as much strength as she could and through a chair that was nearby.
As the chair made its way through the air towards Haruhi, it turned into a pole as long as Haruhi and around 2.5cm in radius. Haruhi caught it with less difficulty than what would normally be seeing as how much force Yuki had used to throw it. Haruhi pinned one of its ends on the surface and lifted herself in the air to dodge Ryoko's vertical slash but just as she had landed, the sword was already on to her and she used the pole to deflect the blows that were so fast yet her body reacted as if on automatic and defended her. Now the awe was switched to Yuki who had started healing her wounds completely but it was a difficult task seeing as Ryoko had used the little data that she placed in this space to allow her entry and devised a way to make serious wounds that would pose a great deal of pain even to her.
She was not appointed leader for the Milky Way team for nothing though. A vaccine to Ryoko's virus had already been put in effect and now it had completely wiped out her underling's tempering. She relaxed a little as her systems went back to normal operation at the sae time watching the battle going on. Ryoko was moving with even more speed now than she was when fighting Yuki but her opponent was even quicker. Suzumiya looked like she was playing with her favourite toy at the moment as seen by the smile gracing her facials. Maybe it was Yuki but it looked to her like Ryoko was being pushed back though the girl was smiling even more than her opponent.
Haruhi was having the greatest time of her life. She felt like she was in a movie and was the heroine who kicked major butt. This made her even more excited and she increased her assault even more and got rewarded by matching three hits on Asakura's body. The hits were first and she used them wisely but hitting her where they counted. After the third one, Ryoko fell on her knees and hands having been hit in very sensitive points. Haruhi brought the stick down on her head which had much force in it considering the speed at which they were fighting but she stopped right in Ryoko's temple. "Have you had enough now class Rep? I don't know what is going on but since it was interesting I will not say anything. Besides, Yuki isn't hurt and that's all that matters."
Asakura Ryoko was speechless at that. She didn't confirm that Suzumiya Haruhi was indeed the God of this realm but she learnt that she wasn't human either. No human would've been able to defeat her this easily. She watched as her subject went over to her superior and helped her to her feet. This was getting interesting and very complicated at the same time. "Nagato Yuki, tell Suzumiya Haruhi of what is truly going on seeing as things have now gone out of our hands." The girl nodded her head and Asakura sighed to herself. Her creators had been watching all this and by now they might have come to the conclusion that Suzumiya Haruhi was indeed one of the four ultimate beings in the four universes.
It wouldn't be long until the other three sent out their trusted forces and capture Suzumiya Haruhi while she had not awoken yet to her true self. It seemed that Suzumiya Haruhi and the other three were not on agreeing terms to the point of siding against her and destroy her. Well, she still had her duty of following her superior's orders so she would do just that. It wasn't like what she had said was true before. She didn't desire to eliminate her partner, it was an order from above to confront the subject and dispose of Yuki if she posed a threat. "She returned the surroundings back to normal at the whisper of the codes and she stood up to go home all the while thinking of what she should have for dinner.
"You okay Yuki?" Haruhi still had her arms around the smaller girl. The room had turned back to its usual state but what had transpired was still like a photograph in her mind. Yuki passed her tiny fingers over her eyes and said only one word – Glasses. Haruhi looked around the room and saw them smashed in the corner. She hadn't noticed when Yuki lost them. "You can see without them, can't you?" The smaller girl nodded her head and her eyes now no longer hidden behind the frames were even barer than anyone else's to Haruhi. She found that she rather liked to see her like this. It wasn't much but without her glasses Yuki looked a little more normal. "I think you should not wear glasses if they aren't advantageous health wise. You look more beautiful this way too."
Yuki looked to her downed pair of now glassless frames and then back at Haruhi. She nodded again to show that she wouldn't need another pair. The glass was abstracting her vision by 0.0543 less when she was reading so it is all good. "Could you tell me clearly what Asakura-san was talking about and yourself?" Yuki pushed gently out of Haruhi's arms and started heading for the exit. The ever spunky girl thought that she might have broken the dam too soon. Yuki paused then in her tracks and looked back to Haruhi. She didn't say anything for a second then she turned her head away from the girl but she didn't move just yet. Haruhi was getting puzzled by the action but then Yuki turned about and came back to where she was standing. She took Haruhi's hand in hers and started walking again leading her towards the door.
Haruhi was surprised by this action. She wondered how much anyone else would pay to see this sight but that would be kept to herself. Haruhi followed in silence and didn't voice the thoughts that were running through her head worried that she might scare Yuki from whatever she had decided to do. It was only ten minutes later that Haruhi came to the light of what was going on. Yuki was leading her to her place and maybe explain to her what she wanted to know. This day was proving to be the most exciting she had had so far in her no longer boring life. Meeting Yuki's parents was an experience she was looking forward to among others. Were they humans simply brain washed to think her their daughter? Were they also aliens disguised as human like Yuki? She couldn't wait for the revelation.
Yuki lived in one of the apartment buildings around there and at least that was normal. She unlocked one of the doors on the fifth floor and entered. Haruhi couldn't hold in her excitement any longer so she pushed past Yuki to go in and meet the parents but found...nothing – Absolutely nothing but a kotatsu in the middle of the room they were in which would be the sitting room. No TV in sight or any other electrical machine that was supposed to grace the said kind of room. Haruhi went to scout in the rest of the rooms and apart from the one set of crockery in the kitchen, it was empty. The bedroom was not better of. She came back into the living room where Yuki had stayed standing there as if on guard.
"There is nothing here Yuki. Where are you stuff? Where are you parents? Don't you have mates?" This was unbelievable yet she didn't know why she was surprised when Yuki shook her head in negative. Okay, she was an alien but still, while in Rome... "Haruhi had seen tea bags in the kitchen and a kettle so maybe Yuki was addicted to tea. Well, she was a tea freak too so she was in no position to talk. "Take a sit Yuki and think about how you are going to explain everything and in simpler terms. I will go make us some tea." Yuki went to the table and sat patiently waiting for the tea that she never thought she would ever taste.
A few minutes later and the tea is set on the table with Haruhi on the other side of it. Yuki sat very gracefully as if she was native but maybe she had ready that in a book somewhere. Haruhi was a little more than happy when Yuki started her tale. "I am an Artificial Intelligence designed to observe life on foreign planets and initially, I have no form of my own. I am made of a far more complicated gene build up than the humans and my initial appearance is that if the metal known on this planet as Silver in its liquid state. Once we settle on the target we are to study, we take on the shape of the more advanced of species on it and that makes our data collection much easier." She pauses to take a sip from her cup.
Haruhi finds her brain grasping this story so far easier than reading a Sci-Fi novel. This doesn't disturb her in the least though. In fact she is eager to hear more. "Asakura Ryoko is the same and she is the other who was placed on this planet but we both were given a different task. Where the others were to study the life on this planet, we were sent here for a completely different reason – You." Haruhi didn't know what to think. Was she that famous as grab the attention of off worldly more intelligent beings? Well, she was very smart and had a different view of the world but still, this was cause for more attention to this story that would win countless Armys in her own world.
There are four known Universes at the present and each Universe was created by a powerful single being that the earthlings refer to as God. I am not aware of the real facts but there was a misunderstanding between one of the Gods and the rest. This God was the one that created this Universe than we you know of. The other Gods conspired to kill the God of this world but they failed and instead sealed away his/her power and memories. This being is believed to be on this planet and living as one of the Homo sapiens here and that brings me to the reason of my presence here. I was sent to observe this being and report back to my creators of any changes or sightings of their power awakening." Another sip of tea and awaiting some questions on Yuki's part followed.
"So you mean to say that God is here among us right now but he doesn't know he or she is a God!" Yuki nodded and Haruhi couldn't help but just 'Wow' having been rendered speechless. How cool could it be to find this God and play divine games with them! The world would be a much more exciting place. Yuki continued however having concluded that there were no more questions. "After I report my sighting of the subject, then my superiors would send their retrievers and take the creator of this Universe into the custody of the other Gods of the rest of the three Universes while the god of this one is still not fully awakened. We have enough evidence to know that we have found the missing God of this Universe here at this school."
"NO FUCKIN' WAY! Are you serious Nagato Yuki?" Haruhi all but jumped on Yuki and grabbed her collar and should her around. Yuki just nodded her head trying to keep her cup steady and not spill her tea. It was good tea. "Who...Who is it? Tell me please." Yuki gain just nodded and Haruhi got a hold of herself to return to her seat. "Suzumiya Haruhi – You are believed to be the creator of this Universe." Crash that is the sound of Haruhi's cup hitting the floor and breaking into tiny wet pieces of tea and china. "You...You are of course referring to a different Suzumiya Haruhi, aren't you Yuki?" The girl shook her head and set her eyes dead on the Haruhi sitting right in front of her.
Haruhi opened her mouth and closed it in instances. No one would know of what thoughts were going right now. Needless to say, it was surely not what she said next, "I demand evidence." It seemed like Yuki was the nodding girl of the day as she again nodded her head and continued her tale. "We began to get clues nine years ago. This is the time, according to your conversation with classmate Kyon that you began to have a different view on the world around you. A different dimension opened up due to your change in emotions at that time and it was when the eliminators were sent here to get rid of it."
"I am guessing that one of these 'eliminators' is here at school too?" Well, it would make sense seeing as everyone in the circle was here for this God in exile and seeing as she was here at there school, then they were here too. Still, her, a God! What was even stranger was that this was not having the effect it should have had to anyone else. Was this all true? Well, there was no way that a person like Nagato Yuki would tell lies. "Koizumi Itsuki is one of the eliminators and he is the leader of those placed here. Their role is to erase any kind of evidence that would leak the far more advanced knowledge of the future to the present time line."
"The group here on earth is in two as well and the one led by Koizumi-san is to erase the 'closed spaces' that are created from your subconscious mind due to emotion changes to the negative side." What was she talking about here? "What do you mean?" Yuki stood up and went to the kitchen to get another cup for Haruhi and after powering a new one for her, sat down to continue explaining. This was against her orders – all of it but she found herself unwilling to disobey Suzumiya Haruhi's requests. "Closed spaces are like the basic mappings of the Universe and within these spaces exists another world like a mirror to this one. This world is made ready to replace the one we live in after it is destroyed by you to turn it into a more exciting one having rendered this one boring or less interesting."
"We have been destroying these spaces in your ignorance and doing everything to make you less bored so as to not get this world destroyed. Koizumi-san Is the only one among us with the power to enter these spaces. Those are our duties as to what Asahina Mikuru's purpose is here, I am not aware of." Yuki finished her tea and this was a sign that the story telling was coming to an end. "My superiors might have given orders to my underling Asakura Ryoko without my knowledge to attack you and by now they know that you are what they were searching for." Yuki saw the puzzled look Haruhi was giving her and explained. "If you were any ordinary human, you would be dead by now having faced her in battle. The fact that you are alive is enough for their equations to come to a complete balance."
Yuki took the now empty cups and cleared the broken shards from the floor with Haruhi's help and after that Haruhi was seen to the door. She wasn't done though. "What are we going to do now?" To be truthful, this was to much for even her. She would need a lot of alone time to come to grabs with this striking news yet she still felt at the same time those butterflies of excitement in her stomach. "I am not sure but I know of what will ensue. As of now, the other Gods have been informed and they are coming for you. I...We will not allow them to take you." Yuki added the last comment after seeing the slight fear on Haruhi's face.
So, all the members of her Brigade were this exciting? Wait, there was one person not mentioned. "What about Kyon. What is his role in any of this?" Yuki seemed to have forgotten about him too. She hesitated as if she didn't want to say which made Haruhi correct herself that maybe she hadn't forgotten but just didn't want to mention him. "I believe that Kyon is like Asahina-san. Unlike me and Koizumi-san, they were brought here by your subconscious. You already had an alien," here Yuki pointed to herself, "and an esper – Koizumi-san. Asahina-san was brought to you by your will alone as the time traveller and as any female needs a male mate, the part of you that is human brought Kyon as the ideal partner."
"That is all." Yuki closed the door in her face but Haruhi was already far gone. She wished for that stupid Kyon to be her mate! That was no possible but considering in the factor that is Mikuru-chan, then it might not be so unreasonable. Haruhi looked up to thank Yuki but found the door in her way instead. "Oh well, I will thank her tomorrow. Hmm, maybe be I could buy her a cell seeing as she doesn't have one as a present. That way we will be in constant contact with each other. Hm but this has really changed my view of the world and me. I have to think about this carefully and what to do." Haruhi went home with her mind working 60 more than what the normal brain of a scientific genius is supposed to go - not that she knew of this fact of course. The future was promising to be a very bumpy one.
To be continued...
