[Sorry this chapter took so looong! School work and such, but I finish school this Thursday! Feel happy for me. It's my brother's birthday the day after we break up and then the day after that, there's this cosplay meet-up I'm going to, in the East Midlands of the UK. It's in Clumber Park, Saturday the 24th of July 2010, if you are interested. BUT COSPLAY! You don't have to, but you know, it would be nice. (I'm one of the people who helped organise it)

I'm thinking of changing my pen name, please help me come up with ideas. So far, it's between, Whispered Dreams, Broken Reflections and Narulin.

Another reason this chapter took so long: Severe writers block. Anywho.

Sapphire: No-one wants to read this. They want to get on with the story...

Me: Um, okay. Please enjoy. I don't own Ouran at all. Something happens in this chapter! So exciting. Anyhow, enjoy!

Amaya watched the blue butterfly go from flower to flower. There was no-one else on the hilltop. It was almost magic. The silver flowers and the full moon only added to beauty and mystery of the place. It was unnaturally quiet. A wind started, gentle at first, but getting harsher and rougher until it became a full blown storm. A single tree stood on the hill and lightning struck it, setting it on fire.

"Amayaaaaaaa!" She thought she heard someone shouting her through the rain and thunder.

Sapphire opened her eyes. She'd been sleeping. It was raining heavily. She looked at the digital clock next to her bed and watched as it blinked from 00:03 to 00:04. As she sat up, the room lit up for a second and thunder growled. Sapphire realised that the storm had woken her up. She got out of bed and walked out of the room she was staying in. She went downstairs (A/N I don't actually know if this place has stairs. It wasn't shown in the anime so I'm just assuming there is) and unlocked the back door. The sound of the storm got louder as the door opened and Sapphy could hear the sea thrashing. She liked storms, she like the way they made her feel safe, but scared at the same time. Normally she would stand outside and let the rain soak her, but something was different. She felt uneasy, like something bad was about to happen. The wind pulled at her hair and snatched at her clothes as the sky was lit up by a crack in the sky that healed itself after a second. The thunder sounded almost straight after the lightning had struck. She looked over to where the lightning had struck and saw a hill in the distance. On top of that hill, Sapphire saw a fire in the shape of a tree. Shivering, Sapphy closed and locked the door. As Sapphy walked out of the room, a little blue butterfly fluttered around the kitchen, looking for a way out.

Someone was crying. Sapphire could hear them behind one of the doors. She knocked on the door and let herself in. Haruhi was sat in one of the corners with her eyes closed and her hands covering her ears.

"Haruhi?" everyone else was still asleep so Haruhi was on her own. She opened her eyes look at Sapphire, but quickly closed them again as lightning struck. Haruhi was sobbing and shaking. It was obvious she was scared. Sapphire sat down next to Haruhi and put her arm around Haruhi's shoulder. Sapphy didn't know what else to do or what to say. Haruhi relaxed slightly and the knowledge that someone else was there, but still jumped whenever she heard thunder. They sat there like that for about an hour until the storm ended. Sapphire got up and walked to the door.

"Sapphy?" She turned around when Haruhi spoke her name and smiled.

"Get some sleep Haruhi, you need it." She said gently and walked out of the room. Haruhi stood there for a minute then got into the bed. Sapphy stood against the closed door thinking about the burnt tree. She sighed and went back to the room she was staying in and went to sleep.

Tamaki, Haruhi, Hikaru and Kaoru were all downstairs having breakfast when Sapphire found them. Kyouya, Honey, and Mori were still upstairs probably asleep. Tamaki was already moping in a corner and everyone else was ignoring him.

"Saaapphy!" He began, but Sapphire cut him off.

"Tamaki, whatever happened, you probably deserved it." She poured herself a bowl of cereal while Tamaki went even further into woe.

"Wow. You're painfully blunt and to the point today aren't you?" asked Hikaru. Sapphy glanced at him and answered him in between mouthfuls of cereal.

"No. I'm just not a morning person. Once I've had breakfast and a cup of tea, I'm much nicer." She looked at everyone and spoke again. "I take one sugar, please." She said to no-one in particular. Haruhi sighed and started making tea for herself and Sapphy. An awkward silence fell except for the clanging of spoons against bowls and knives and forks against plates and the kettle boiling. When the kettle had finished boiling, Haruhi poured the tea and gave one cup to Sapphy.

"Thanks." Sapphire mumbled through her cereal. Honey came in riding Mori's shoulders. They glanced at Tamaki and ignored him. Everyone was used to his sorrowful moments.

"Morning everyone!" Honey shouted. Mori grunted. Sapphire sipped at her tea to make sure it wasn't too hot, and then gulped it down. Kyouya was the only person not awake now. Sapphire stood up and started putting on her shoes.

"I'm going for a walk. Anyone who wants to join me is very welcome." Sapphire stood up and went outside. She hoped no-one would follow her and no-one did. She started off towards the hill when she heard someone calling her name. She turned around and saw Kaoru running to catch up with her. Sapphy sighed. She had wanted to go on her own, but she smiled. He caught up with her and they started walking. They didn't say anything for a while. Kaoru wanted to know where they were going so he asked her after 10 minutes of walking.

"Where abouts are we going?" He asked. Sapphire pointed towards the top of the hill they were walking up.

"Only up there. There's something I want to see." They didn't say anything else until they got to the top of the hill. The grass was still wet from the rain last night and a burnt tree stood on its own. Sapphire had gone up to it and was walking around it.

"What burnt the tree?" Sapphy answered him without stopping walking around the tree.

"There was a storm last night. Lightning hit it." She paused and looked at him curiously. "You didn't hear it?" Kaoru shook his head and Sapphy reached out for the tree. She closed her eyes then opened them again. Smiling, she beckoned Kaoru over then held his hand with her hand still resting on the tree.

"Close your eyes and open your mind. I'm going to show you the tree's memories." She said, softly. He closed his eyes and a rush of memories washed over him. He couldn't see or hear because this is what the tree would have felt, but he was aware. He was aware of colours, of the sun, of the rain. Many people had sat under the tree's shade, picnicking. There had been a few who had even confessed under it. And always, always, there was the little blue butterfly. Even at the end, it had been there. Now there was two people standing hand in hand underneath it, one human and one not quite human.

Kaoru was brought back into himself. He opened his eyes and saw that Sapphy had taken her hand away from the blistered trunk.

"Amaya." She whispered to herself. Sapphire Mizuiro hadn't heard that name in a long time. To hear it in a dream about his hilltop – it must mean something. Something bad was coming. Sapphire and Kaoru were still holding hands. She looked at their clasped hands, and then at view that could be seen from the hill. The wind blew gently through her hair.

"Sapphire?" She looked up at Kaoru. He was looking forward with a gentle look in his eyes. He tightened his grip on her hand as if scared she would pull away. "Sapphire, I love you."

[*Fangirl squeal* Kaoru said 'I love you'! Even if it wasn't to me, but it's still soooo cute! :D

It's not fair. I want Kaoru. Why does my OC get him and I don't? ):

This is creepy because today (which is the day after I wrote the beginning of this chapter with the tree) we watched the start of the colour film of 'the lord of the flies' in English class(we're doing about lord of the flies for our english exam) and there's a single tree on a cliff or hill and it sets on fire. creepy...
