Spar-Well then, welcome back to Chapter 5 of I Know I'll See Your Face Again, yup, we've been able to finish this Chapter before EASTER! Anyways, once again, I've decided to return to provide support for dearest Requiem here. In fact, this Chapter is a VERY Special Chapter, as it is the FIRST Chapter I've fully written. Chapter 1 and 3 were COMPLETELY written by Requiem, Chapter 2's Makeout Scene was written by me...Don't ask, and Chapter 4 had a large amount of work done by me, basically everything but the Author Notes, the First couple of Paragraphs and the Argument with Sachi was done by me. Of course, not to rain of Requiem's Parade, but it's just a note, so if you find this Chapter to be the Written-equivalent of an Asylum Mockbuster, do tell!

Requiem-Yeah, my life like throwing a bunch of shit at me at once! xD Just ask Redemption fans, they're like KALEIGH, WHERE'S THE NEW CHAPTER? And, don't worry the smart bunch of Redemption fans reading this, it is being written and has an awesome fight scene that's totally worth the wait. Anyways, I'm also the editor of the chapters as well! Well, we're both editors for each other! xD And, don't worry, I'll try to write a make out scene later. Key word: try. Being asexy makes makeout scenes hard but not sex scenes (don't ask...it is a Saviors thing...ask about Saviors though :D)? Wow. Without further to do, let's watch the craziness commence!

Just look at the bright side, chapters are getting longer! :P And, when summer comes, this story will update like CRAZY!

The usually rigid older brother protective stance of Satoshi Mochida seems to have well and truly cracked, as the brown-haired teen hunches his head down slightly, his chin holding just below his collar as he took deep, ragged breaths, the strong brown-eyes, that had shown anger, bravery and love in that nightmarish Netherworld of a school, now shows the look of betrayal, with gentle tears running down his face. His whole body lurches as he keeps taking breaths of air, his hand clammy in Yuka's grip.

Seiko merely glances at Satoshi, her soft, loving eyes containing only a small look of concern, possibly since she had been caught making out with Naomi. She has a bunch of emotions fighting inside her, but she has to keep up her image. The girl clenches her hand, only to put on a smile seconds later. "Hey Mochida! I dared Naomi to kiss me for my signed copy of Ok Compu!" she giggles softly, making up a rather odd lie she hopes Satoshi would buy it.

He did not.

"I...It's fine, Seiko. Don't. Worry," he explains in a warbling tone. His tears are trying to not drip off his youthful face. Yuka looks back up at him with a cheerful smile, clearly oblivious to his horror at seeing the girl he loved kissing her best friend, or almost as if she was happy due to it...

Naomi turns back to face him, her blood running cold as her senses have finally came back to the cruel, harsh reality of what had been happening to them. When she begged and pleaded to anybody that she could see the face of Seiko Shinohara again, her judgement had been clouded about Ayumi, Yuka and Satoshi, all of whom cared for her, but now she realises that in her quest to save Seiko Shinohara, Yui, Yoshiki, Morishige and Mayu that she has forgotten about hurting the feelings of her fellow survivors.

"Sa-Satoshi! It's great to see you...Seiko's ju-just..." she stammers, she could feel a sense of dread, a sense of fear in her guts, ever since Satoshi and Naomi met so many years ago, she knew that he had feelings for her, but once again, the idiotic ways of Naomi Nakashima to let her emotions run free and vent frustration out on those around her, had claimed another victim's heart. That of the poor soul known as Satoshi Mochida. She had forgotten almost entirely about the Mochida's since the loop had begun. And now her forgetfulness and the blindness she had received by her love for Seiko, had come back to bite her hard. Her childhood friend is falling into the black because of one simple kiss.

"Oh! Hello Miss Nakashima...Miss Shinohara...it is so nice to see you could make it today," he speaks with a wavering but condescending voice, his vocal tone arching from low almost growling bass to a prepubescent whine as the usually warm and loving eyes of the brunette, now are filled with the look of despair and the look of isolation, as if his only two friends had left him alone, as if he has lost somebody he loved. As Naomi stares at him, she couldn't help but feel as though everything is going wrong, and the possibility of saving Seiko might end badly. In fact, she actually feels sick as he rigidly grabbed the hand of Yuka and pulled her along.

"Excuse me please. I need to take my sister to class," he sneers at the pair. Naomi's heart sinks as she saw him, not even using their names in a sign of how disgusted he is at the newly found couple. The thoughts of how he now hated her...How she had caused him so much trauma...So much pain...There is a sudden pain in her head as her mind wraps with overwhelming dark feelings.

Seiko hangs there in the rotting filthy toilet cubicle, her feet droops so her toes point at the ground as her eyes bulge from lack of oxygen, her mouth was held open, as if trying to take in deep breaths of air, although that has stopped, her usually luscious and beautiful skin now a dead pale white.

Seiko Shinohara. No longer breathing. No longer able to even smile.

Naomi, briefly replaying the most horrifying and nightmarish thing she had ever had to witness in her tormented mind, seeing Seiko there dead, and there was nothing she could do, she lets out a guttural scream and shot her hand out, grabbing the boy's shoulder tightly. "Satoshi! I...I didn't know any better! I love you! But, the thing is, I love you as a friend! I care for you! I'd protect you until my hair falls out! But I love Seiko...in a way...that just can't be explained in words. We can still be friends, more than friends...But the truth is, I love her!" she cries, breaking down in tears as she falls onto her barren knees, begging him with her wavering eyes.

Seiko merely looks on, her heart pumping as she heard this heartrending speech Naomi had sobbed, she feels sorry for the poor boy. He does not know what Naomi had been through. What she had seen, what she had done. He knew none of that! She walks over to her crying lover and gently comforted her. "Sshhhhhhhh...It's okay Naomi...It's okay..." she spoke very motherly as she hugged her tightly. "Everything is gonna be okay, I'm not gonna leave you ever again."

Naomi merely feels Seiko's soft and elegant hands wrap around her body and hold her close, almost protecting her from everything that could hurt her. She feels safe here, locked in a hug that could last forever...

Satoshi stands there, watching, listening to the pair softly embracing. His tears ran down his face freely as he turned around. He loved Naomi as a friend and then some, but now, seeing that his role had been taken by her other friend, he feels left out and let down, as if everything he can do, will do and did has imploded into a maelstrom of sorrow. He actually begins to cry much less defiantly now, snorting and screaming as he let go of Yuka's hand.

"Sis...I need some time a-alone..." he barely makes out before walking away. Yuka watches Satoshi walk away, slowly beginning to run as he left the girls alone.

"Onee-chan! Onee-chan, wait!" she yells, crying at how beautiful Seiko and Naomi are and how distraught her brother, usually defiant and protective, is. She quickly jogs after him, the clopping of her ballet flats on the tiled floor growing distant as she chases after him.

She is her friend...They all are!

Satoshi...

Yuka...

Ayumi...

Morishige...

Yui...

Mayu...

Yoshiki...

She cares for all of them! Whenever she feels down and bleak, whenever life feels like it was all against her, she could turn to anyone of them.

Seiko...her cute brown hair...her cat-like smile, her overly perverted tendencies...something about her...She feels as though Seiko was somebody who she could totally trust, as though she and Seiko could practically be long-lost sisters with how well they get along...

However, she has made a mistake that no single person, no matter how naive, could overlook.

Exactly how could Naomi know?! How could she know that the emotions she feels would mutate into a possessive urge, an intruder in her mind...Who wants everyone dead.

Did she imagine that the last time she would see her sly, slick eyes, filled with that Shinohara-like flame, that she would only see them one more time, when they were dead, bloodshot and lifeless as she felt the life leave her body.

"I...I killed her. I let my emotions run amok! If I had just kept my damn mouth shut! Seiko! Seeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikkkkkkkkoooooooo! I'm sorry! I LOVE YOU!"

Even though, it feels as though she had waken up in one of the many nightmares she constantly experiences after the incident involving Heavenly Host, she feels as though her life has been reset, she has her Seiko, she could show her one true love what is really buried deep within her heart. She could tell her all the things she had not even found the courage to say.

Seiko Shinohara. Naomi's best friend, Naomi's lover...

Naomi's life.

As Naomi feels her flaring emotions slowly begin to retreat back inside of her mind, she looks up to see Seiko, still holding her tightly, almost like she thinks Naomi would fly away if she let go. Her romantic partner smiles at her, and Seiko smiles back. "Naomi...honey...You really have a way with words, you should be a novelist later in life hon!" She gives her catlike smile as Naomi feels a familiar tweak on her behind. A soft moan escapes her lips as she wraps her own hands around Seiko's behind. She wants to stay here, locked together. Forever.

But, as usual, this passionate and lovely moment she experiences. It couldn't last. She knew it couldn't. Everything is useless, no matter how hard she tries.

"Hm...I didn't know the Culture Festival included a Gay Pride thing! Not that I'm complaining!" chuckled a male voice.

Oh for the Gods' sakes!

Letting go of Seiko's body, Naomi turns to see a rather skinny yet averaged height teenager, about a year or two older then Naomi or Seiko. He has long almost girlish brown hair that was seemingly dyed blonde near the tips, that contrast with his tanned skin and ugly moustache forming from lack of shaving. Naomi gets off the floor, looking at the boy, whose Student ID, clipped to his undershirt and not his blazer showing his scruffy dress sense, reads: TANIGUICHI, YASUKO

"Fuck off!" she yells at him, despising this student, despite barely knowing him just for how rude he is and the aura he gives off.

"Well Ex-Cusssssssssssseeeeeeee Me Miss Utena Tenjou!" Yasuko taunts back at her. Naomi, fed up with Mr Taniguichi after just a painful minute, merely walks up to him and slaps him violently on the cheek, sending his saliva over his shoulder and the wall before walking off. Seiko forces herself up and follows her, giving Yasuko a death glare like no other.

As the pair quickly hurries away from Yasuko into the long hallway near the sports hall, where large framed images of the school's past sports teams, most of whom either aged or retired, a handful even died since 1974, stands proudly on both sides to inspire students, Naomi looks back to Seiko.

"What a dick," Seiko bluntly admits, despite her relatively calm personality and having the patience of a saint, she has very little time for people who only treated lesbians as a sideshow attraction. She wants to just middle finger all of them and wish them away.

"Couldn't have said it better myself...Say, why aren't you getting to class?" Naomi replies, her voice returning to it's normal tone after the blows the argument with Satoshi gave it.

"'Cuse I wanna follow my little angel!" Seiko giggles back at her, trying to grope her behind yet again, although due to Naomi's pace, she misses and only pinched at the material of Naomi's skirt.

"Well, I'm just going to the toilet, just fix myself up...'Sides, isn't it going to be weird going to a place where you, you know, died?" Naomi asks, trying to associate the horrifying thought of Seiko's hanging corpse with a nightmare once more, she would do her best to prevent that.

"Oh. Guess your right. As much as I'd like to see these babies again, I guess not becoming a ghost comes first!" she smiles softly, pausing as Naomi keeps walking.

"I love you, Naomi!" Naomi replies over her shoulder, seeing Seiko wave adorably.

"I love you too, Seiko..."

Yuki Kanno prowls the halls of the school she had lived and died in. The soft sounds of the feet of the girl's body she possesses against the rotten and dirty halls of the school echoes out for miles. She occasionally steps over the corpse of a student, mostly those either she, Sachiko, Ryou or Tokiko had a hand in dealing with. Of course though, she searches through the bleak and desolate hallways, patrolling for any other students who had escaped her wrath, or even to see if Sachiko is up to her mysterious tactics.

It is pretty strange really, she knows that since Sachiko and her Mother had died in 1952, Sachiko has been ruling Heavenly Host with a blood-stained fist, she has dealt with every intruder, every single possible outcome on when students came to Heavenly Host, most of them to die and be completely forgotten by those outside. In fact, by the time Yuki had gotten used to her afterlife being one of the guardians of this school in 1975, she had already lost count of the amount of people who perished under her.

In fact, as she tries to count up the near boatload of dead by her no longer innocent hands, she can't help but remember one of her few memories of her old life, that she had mostly forgotten in the long years that had since gotten between the present and when she died.

In August 1971, the town of Tenjin was engulfed in outrage when a car accident occurred at traffic lights in the town. The police officer who operated the lights was convicted of murder when he accidentally signaled green on two roads at the same time. A family heading east in their car were all killed when a truck heading north collided with them. Although it initially seemed as though the officer made a gross error in allowing the lights to be at green at the same time, it was revealed that the officer's wife was hospitalised after a housefire, and he had been forced to come to work. So distraught, he believed that the North-South Junction was at red as the truck was paused, when in actuality it had stalled and the driver was restarting it. He turned the signal to green, forgetting about the East-West Road's green light. Due to the fact that he shouldn't have been on duty, the family's relatives pardoned him and he was discharged fully.

Yuki distinctly remembers that, after the first time she had killed a student in Heavenly Host, she thought back on the story of the traffic lighter, and how he had accidentally killed four people, but not out of choice, but due to an error. She realised that unlike the traffic lighter, she had killed these people deliberately, without mercy. She had thought in her head I'm going to kill him and that initially, it bothered her deeply.

Of course, Sachiko didn't care and told her to stop worrying about it.

But now, now that she feels the seeds of rebellion growing due to this whole time looping charade, and how she wonders if she needs to kill anymore. Maybe...Maybe Ayumi Shinozaki had done more to her psyche and morals then she realised.

Or maybe, the reason she thinks back on the story of the traffic lighter, is because of how similarly it followed Sachiko's own story. Even though Sachiko was one of the most horrific things she has ever seen before and after she died, she knows why Sachiko is the way she is. She is merely trying to do it for her mother's, Yoshie, attention. Of course, whether or not Yoshie likes her daughter doing these despicable acts wasn't for her to decide, but it reminds her how the traffic lighter had been forgiven by the relatives of the family he killed. Since the family were all killed, nobody could actually say what they thought of the man. For all they knew, they could have wanted the man dead.

"Why am I thinking like this? I like Sachiko..." she mumbles to herself as she stops in her tracks. She does think of Sachiko as one of her best friends, along with Ryou and Tokiko, but the thought is, how before time began to loop back on itself, Yuki Kanno had been given some of Sachiko's Power. She had become the girl in the red dress. And...the power was the most amazing feeling she ever sensed in her immortality. But now, she is back to her usual, boring ghoulish self, subservient to Sachiko. Maybe the reason she wants Ayumi and the Kisaragi Nine to succeed, is so she could take her place as the rightful ruler of Heavenly Host?

Before Yuki has anymore time to dwell, a bloody and beaten hand suddenly grabbed her ankles.

As Yuki has been possessing the body of a English teenager who had foolishly performed the charm with her equally as doomed friends, she didn't know what would happen if her mortal body died, so she lets out a horrified yelp of fear as she leaps upwards, causing the hand to loose its grip. Looking back at what grabbed her, she sees another body.

Lying on the floor is the corpse of another student, judging by his outfit, he was from the same party as the one Yuki's new body currently inhabits, he is in a sorry state however. His face unnaturally pale as he coughs up blood, his eyes drooping as he feels the life leave his body. "Muhhh...Muhhruhhh...Muhhruhhh...huhh muhhh..." he coughs, sending blood out of the floor and Yuki's shoes. She sighs with an annoyed look. Judging by the amount of blood that is leaving his maw, clearly Ryou had something to do with this Student's death.

"Sorry kiddo...Mary's busy!" she sneers evilly, her eyes dilating only in a way something psychopathic could, before violently stomping on his throat, causing a horrifying squelching sound and a cracking sound. The sounds of the dying student stop abruptly.

"...Why Mary...?" Seeing that he is somehow still alive, Yuki only responds by rolling her eyes in the back of her head and spiting off blackish blood. The boy's eyes then widen and fade.

"Ryou! Ryou! Where are you?" she yells with a bored look, looking around for her tongueless friend. Yuki wipes the blood off her lips and makes her eyes return to normal.

After a few moments of angrily looking around, Yuki is pleased to see the spirit of the five-year old boy appear, a disturbingly happy smile upon his face.

Initially, the cold dead eyes of Ryou Yoshizawa hold a brief glimmer of confusion, before the dead boy smiles toothily, showing his bloodied teeth from where his tongue was removed. "Yuhee? Wahhz uhp wheh wour bowee?" he innocently waves, his statement slurs due to the clear lack of a tongue, meaning that most of the time he spoke, he couldn't be understood by most of the students, but since Yuki, Tokiko and Sachiko had all been friends for so long, despite Sachiko being their killer, they mostly understood what he meant. Although, Yuki has to admit befriending your murderer was a weird thing for her to do.

"Ryou...am I glad to see you...something strange is going on here..." Yuki replies with a happy look, happy to see her tongueless friend at last, she wonders where Tokiko was, the grisly looking ghost usually not far from Ryou. Ryou tilted his head, his emotionless eyes piercing into Yuki's literal spirit.

"I oh...I guh duh weirhust feewin...Ah saw sumbowee Ah alweahe killed! Eh hame hoopin?" he asks again. Although to most who could understand what the spirit means, this would sound terrifying just how bored he sounds about brutal murder, to Yuki it sends her a feeling of relief. It seems that it wasn't just her and Sachiko who remembers.

"We are Ryou. Sachiko told me...Apparently she doesn't know why...I mean this hasn't happened before has it?" she questions again, knitting her brows in confusion. "It must be to do with that Kisaragi Group. Remember them? Mayu, Ayumi...the delinquent?"

"Ah rewembuh whem...Whyth thith happehwen?" he inquires, joining his hands together over his bloodstained shirt.

"I don't know Ryou...But I think it's Sachiko's doing...but why?" she wonders out-loud, she feels very confused at this. It just didn't seem right...She knows that since she died, Sachiko had near godlike powers, but the power to constantly loop a certain period of time wasn't one she knows of.

"Ah duh kha...Saheehoo muth wunt tha Ahoomee guh dhead?" he askes, Yuki gives a sudden gasp of realisation, Ayumi must have had something to do with this time loop. She had to, nobody had ever bested Sachiko. Maybe she wants some type of chance to get back at Sachiko for all eternity. Yuki feels though that although this theory made a lot of sense, it doesn't account for why Heavenly Host is looping as well, instead of merely trapping Ayumi here to be forever tortured, much like the principle who hurt Sachiko.

However, regardless of whether or not Sachiko has somehow become more powerful due to the intervention of Yoshie, or if Ayumi and the Kisaragi Students were what caused this Loop, Yuki didn't like any of this.

Although she considers Sachiko one of her best friends here in the school; granted, the only inhabitants who she isn't out for the blood of are Sachiko, Ryou, Tokiko, Yuki herself, Yoshie, Yoshikazu, who technically, is more of Sachiko's muscle, and that weird spirit in a toilet, just how callously and selfishly Sachiko had treated her three friends, she couldn't forgive that. Any of it. If and when Sachiko is to move on from Heavenly Host, Yuki would take her role as the girl in the red dress, then Ryou and lastly Tokiko...But if it seems now that Sachiko was so petty on not wanting to move onto the afterlife, going even against her own mother's wishes, she couldn't understand that.

Yuki Kanno desires to be boss. The big bad of everything. And she'll do whatever she can to get to that role finally and successfully.

"Ryou! Go and find Tokiko, see if she can remember anything...There were nine students from that British school. I know that I've got three including this body, you've gotten this guy here...Tokiko got that smoker in the toilet and his girlfriend and that guy who castrated himself...That leaves us with one more student. That means there's one more loose end who could help spoil Sachiko's fun. I'll go search for him...I think I know where he is," lies Yuki, faking the death count of the Far Water students. Yuki killed Zach, Ethan, George and possessed Mary, Ryou obviously got that guy who tried to grab her earlier, Noel she believed by the scraps of memories she got from Mary. Tokiko neatly bisected Ed and Jennifer, and Archie had fallen to The Darkening due to jealousy. Rhys originally, was killed by Yuki, but now that the time had began to repeat itself, Sachiko had that honour.

But, Ryou didn't know that.

"Uh kuh! Hee ha ahound!" he cheerfully waves back to Yuki as she walks away around a corner, back by the corpse of Noel. Hiding behind the unheavenly bloodsoaked wall, feeling the icy cold liquid against her neck causing a shiver as she hears Ryou slowly walk away, happily humming the theme tune to some Japanese kid's show he must have watched when alive. Then a grin sneaks onto her almost too perfect lips.

Perfect. Now's my time to shine Sachi!

Peering around the corner to see the eerie blue glow of Ryou fading away in the distance, Yuki sneaks over to Noel's corpse and quickly rummages through the pockets of his shirt, blazer and trousers. The smile growing weaker with each moment that passes by. It takes a while, but soon Yuki pulls out what she needs.

A metallic red palm PDA device.

Of course, when Sachiko and Yoshie died in 1952, and then Ryou, Yuki and Tokiko in 1973, the thought of using mobile phones was a pretty absurd idea and was only explored in the realm of science fiction. Most phones of the time were big bulky things that were too difficult to use daily like modern phones. But, due to the fact that Heavenly Host is completely out of reality with Earth, when students began to arrive in the late 1990's with large mobile phones, they would find much to their horror and disappointment, that their phones had no signal, and later no Wi-Fi. Eventually it would get to point their even their battery dies with no way to charge it.

But, due to a sneaky tactic Yoshie taught them about one day, Yuki knows a way for a device in Heavenly Host to get signal. Since initially, Heavenly Host Elementary School was an actual place in Tenjin, Japan, that meant that when Yoshie copied it with the Book Of Shadows to try and bring back her husband, that part of Heavenly Host that thousands of people come to die in still partially exists on Earth. If one of the Spirits used their powers on a device, like a mobile phone, then the signal could interlink with any Wi-Fi networks, or cell phone towers close to Tenjin, and get a call out.

Of course, since hardly anyone ever escapes from Heavenly Host, and all of those who die are forever erased from the minds of those who never met them, this ability is practically useless, only tricksters would find joy from it. But it seems that Yuki does have a need for it today.

She needs help from somebody who knows the supernatural.

Help from somebody who has been into Heavenly Host.

Help from somebody she can blackmail.

Help from Naho.

Spar-Well then, that was Chapter 5 of I Know I'll See Your Face Again. I must say, after writing that Chapter, I feel as though this has been my finest work! I mean, the whole Naomi Interlude was one of the greatest things I've ever written. Of course though, if any of you feel as though I wrote this whole Chapter pretty poorly, don't fret and tell us, so I can just not write for this Story ever again! Oh and don't worry, I shan't be apart of Miss Requiem's Squabbles!

Requiem-Yeah, this story will be updating shortly for a while. Until school ends. Sorry for that dear readers. I love you all for reading this and supporting me through all of these crazy times! :D Now I need to go to sleep, it is 2:00 AM and I've things to do tomorrow. Oh the wonder of not having time to do anything.

Sachiko-Ahem! You're forgetting something-

Requiem-Goodbye! And, no, this story does not have any smut...yet-

Sachiko-Forget it, I'm just gonna play some Yandere Sim or something like that. The wonder of now having the powers to connect to the internet.
