Chapter 2: Memories
Thank you for your reviews! I will carry on as per the Major's order! =D


Winter had settled in Takaoka, Toyama... the cold winter weather was bitter and (obviously) really cold.

"Kyoko!" Akari whined as the blonde (near enough) dragged her around the shopping centre that was local to Takaoka, Toyama. "Haven't we been through enough, clothes ,shops already!?"

Kyoko shook her head rapidly, "Nope, we need to find an outfit that makes you stand out!"

Kyoko then stops in front of one shop, and her eyes light up. "This is so...CUTE!"

Akari who had been looked around at the other shoppers the entire time, looks up and her face grimaces. 'I don't really want to go in...' She thought sadly as Kyoko pulled her into the shop. "Kyoko..."

Kyoko looks back at Akari. "Yes?"

Akari looks at Kyoko, dead serious as the blonde stops moving forwards. "I would rather go home then we-we-wear"

"WELCOME TO COSPLAY INCORPORATED!"

Akari nearly jumped out of her skin and grabbed ahold of Kyoko around the waist, so which the blonde turned several different shades of red.

"N-n-not here... Akari, Did you hear me?" Kyoko whispered as Akari only grabbed her tighter, to which the blonde was losing breath. "L-let go!" Kyoko then did the only thing that she thought would make Akari let go...

Kyoko slapped Akari across the face, making Akari let go and drop to the floor. "Kyoko... why?"

Kyoko turned around and glared at Akari as she looked down at her. "I'll tell you why, if you really want, you have been a pain all along this trip! Ever since Yui and Chinatsu left Toyama, you've been complaining that you didn't get to go with them!" With that the blonde was getting really angry as Akari started to cry. "Further, you are...you are..."

Akari looked up at Kyoko as the blonde was struggling to come out with it. "Go on... Say it..."

Kyoko took a deep breath in and moved closer to Akari, bending over the distressed girl. "You don't exist in my world! You're a horrible friend and I wish I didn't know you!"

Akari looked down at that point, trying to comprehend what Kyoko just said to her. 'I...don't exist?'

Kyoko smiled as she turned around and walked into the shop, looking for interesting designs that she could make Chinatsu and Yui wear, should they ever return to Toyama that is.

Little unbeknownest to Kyoko, a certain purple haired girl had been watching the scene unfold in front of them. Ayano turns to Chitose. "You handle Akari... I'll go talk to Kyoko..."

Chitose nods her head. "I got it"

'I miss you Chinatsu... please... come back...' Akari thought as she began to slip into depression, more so then just crying randomly. She looked at the floor of the shop until Chitose pulled on her shirt. "Akari?"

Akari looked up at Chitose and stood up slowly. "H-hey Chitose...wait- what are you guys doing here?"

"Lets just say, Ayano needed to get some food and we ended up spotting you guys"

Akari smiles sadly as she turned around, her back to Ayano and Kyoko. The latter of which she did not call her friend... not anymore.

"Come on, lets go and get a coffee... I think you need it"

Akari nods slowly as the two exit the shop and head for the nearest coffee shop.

[Meanwhile with Ayano and Kyoko]

'How could you do that to Akari, Toshino Kyoko! We all like Akari! You heartless...piece of-'

"Oh Ayano! What are you doing here?"

Ayano blinked as her thoughts were stopped, she then walks over to Kyoko who (at the time) was standing about one metre away from her. "You should know that by now Kyoko!"

Kyoko blinks, "Wha-" Ayano grabs ahold of Kyoko's shirt and looks her in the eye. "You listen to me, you piece of garbage! How could you do that to Akari? What gives you the right? Huh?" Ayano pushes Kyoko a little hard so that the blonde hit the floor.

By this point, several shoppers had noticed and the police had been called. "You are horrible, selfish, and I don't even know WHY I have to say this to you of all people but..."

Kyoko stood up as she could see that Ayano was burning with rage, but Kyoko was starting to get angry herself. "What? You think I actually liked talking to Akari!?"

[Meanwhile with Chitose and Akari]

"Easy Akari..."

Akari sat down, but she was in floods of tears as she starred at Chitose. "What did I do to her? Absolutely nothing!"

"I understand... but there is another question I have for yo-"

"Can I take your orders?"

Chitose looked to the male waiter and nodded. "Yes, can I get a black coffee... what about you Akari?"

Akari went to open her mouth but then closed it again. Chitose shook her head and looked to the waiter. "Can she have a coffee, milk and two sugars?"

"Of course" The waiter then began to walk away, having the orders to give to the chef team.

Akari's eyes widened. "How did yo-"

Chitose simply smiled at Akari. "Simple, you had a coffee with milk and two sugars last time we came to a coffee shop..."

Akari smiled as she looked down. "Th-thank you"

Akari then remembered something. "Hang on, you wanted to ask me something?"

Chitose nods her head. "That's right"

The waiter then came and gave them their coffee's and went back to serving the other customers.

"What's that?" Akari asked as she held her coffee in her hands, trying to warm up.

"Do you like Chinatsu?"

Akari's face went from normal to red in a matter of seconds. "W-wh-what kind of a q-q-question is that?"

Chitose smiled again. "I asked you that, because I know you're not happy with Kyoko... are you?"

Akari nodded as she looked down again. "T-T-that's right"


How did I do? Good? Bad? Horrible?
