Hello minna! Well, this is one is a special chappie to celebrate the korean pop group 2NE1's concert yesterday (May 17th). I have a lot of korean pop loving friends so I dedicate this to them ^_^ Please excuse me for using a non-jpop song .
This is especially for "Goddess" whom I know is a die-hard fan of 2NE1.
Please enjoy this chapter!
"Tatsuna,"
"I don't have time for your stupid jokes, Taiga-nii." Tatsuna replied with her back turned against him. Taiga sighed. "Look, I know you're upset about getting rejected, but I have to tell you this," Tatsuna felt alarmed at his lonely tone, but still refused to face him.
"I… got accepted to squad one just yesterday, and today we'll be going on a mission that could cost us our lives," The raven haired girl gasped and faced her brother.
"You… what?"
"If I come back, well, not breathing, then please put flowers on my mom's grave for me,"
"Wait, Taiga-"
"Miss Yomi, please, you haven't eaten anything! You've been staring outside the window since this morning!" a maid pleaded.
"I do not wish to eat anything. Just leave me be for today, tell the servants not to disturb me today at all." Yomi replied. With a shocked expression, the maid nodded and left the room.
"Will you be fine after this?" A girl with baby blue hair tied in pigtails asked with a look of complete worry.
"For the last time Ayame, yes I will be fine. Do not worry about me." Tetsuya replied in monotone then walked out of the large Kuroko mansion.
"Uwaah~ My baby is going to be in a dangerous mission!" A white haired Goddess cried as she hugged her "baby".
"Mom, please stop calling me your baby! I'm 18 now!" Daiki said yanking off his mother's arm off him.
"But Yuno is still 17!" She pointed to a girl with the same dark blue hair and dark blue eyes he had who was standing in a corner, looking uninterested. "Well, that's her!"
"Irryana, let go of our son. He still has a mission to attend to. And Yuno, did you lock up Yukiko in garden again?"
"Finally! Dad, where were you minutes ago when mom was strangling me!"
"I was… in the basement,"
Yuno rolled her eyes and kicked her brother out of the door and slamming it shut. 'Onii-chan, I know this is a big mission, please come back home safe…'
"Shintaro-chan~ be safe~"
"Stupid aunt, shut up for once will you?" Shintaro was really irritated by his aunt's clingy attitude. It made him wonder if his mother was also like this.
"Why would I, Tomoyo Midorima, your aunt, shut up when my nephew is in danger of dying!"
"Ugh, just… tape your mouth or something,"
"We're going after clan of strand-T demons and kill them, that sums up everything." Satsuki explained with little to no interest. Then she stood up and headed for the cell door.
"Bye, Giyo."
"Can't you call me "dad" or "father" for once?" Giyo said sighing. "Look, I'll call you that when I get you out of this… this prison. I spent nearly my entire life trying to figure out how to get you out of here and I'm not going to just suddenly stop only because I got to see you."
"I take it you already saw how this mission will end up?"
"Not entirely, it was all blurred, but at least I saw that we're getting out of it alive, even the newbie." Then Satsuki went out of the cell door.
'Because the way I see it, it is completely different.'
"Hey mom, I'm… going, I guess? I don't know why they're making us clear out an entire clan of demons but, I'll do my best! After all, I'm your son!" Ryota said laughing sheepishly. 'Well, it kinda feels lonely talking to a picture,' He told himself.
Unbeknownst to him, he had already walked past his restless mother.
"You got your gear ready?"
"For the last time, yes." Atsushi was already irritated, so irritated he was about to throw the table at the wall.
"Do not talk to your sister like that."
"Yes, Aria-nee." Atsushi rolled his eyes.
"Now then, go out the door and come back with a beating heart."
One two three
You left me
But I hear your breath from somewhere
Giyo sat alone in the single chair that was provided in for him in his cell, sipping a cup of tea. As he stared at his own reflection, he chuckled.
"I really do look like a girl, and… my daughter,"
Tears started streaming down his face when he remembered his daughter. He's been locked up in this cell the entire 18 years of his daughter's life, just watching the future to know how she's doing and never actually got to talk to her until she started visiting him.
"At the very least, I can hear you breathing in my visions of the future,"
Once again, four five six
Red tears fall down
I miss your scent that embraced me
As Yomi stared at the distance through a large window in their mansion, she remembered the younger sister that she pushed away just because she loved the said sister's boyfriend.
She touched her face and felt something warm and wet fell from her eyes. But it wasn't tears; it was blood.
She looked back outside the window, and saw her blood smeared face.
You said this was all for me
Like a lie, you coldly turned around
Why? Why? You're gone away
No…
"This is for your own safety, Tatsuna. If these pests die, then you live."
Tatsuna slowly slid down the door as tears fell from her eyes. She couldn't take away the image of how Taiga had… said that and looked so cold to her, as if he meant that he would never come back after that.
"If this is for me, why do you seem so cold?" She muttered.
She turned slightly and touched the door. "You've… gone away," She said in a low, broken voice as more tears fell from her eyes.
Come back home
Can you come back home
Don't leave me at the end of the cold world but come back to my side
"Mom, stop crying." Yuno said in monotone while lazily throwing crumpled papers at the door and leaning against the wall across it. Just as she was about to throw another one, she noticed that the one she was holding was slightly frozen. 'Great, now my frost powers are going out of control.'
"But your brother is in danger! He might die!"
Irryana dodged a ball of pure ice that was thrown at her. "I'm tired of this. I'm going to my room." As she Yuno walked around, the floor behind her was freezing into ice.
"If something's going to happen, he better come back…" She mumbled.
Come back home
Can you come back home
I'm pushing back all the pain
I'm still waiting for you like this
Now you gotta do what you gotta do
Meanwhile in the Midorima manor, Tomoyo was worriedly pacing back and forth in her room, and occasionally jumping on her bed and roll around several times before standing up again to aimlessly walk around. She opened one of messy drawers and stared at it in disgust. 'Ew, I've got to clean around more often,' she told herself. She started rummaging everything inside and brought out a dusty picture frame.
"Aha!" Tomoyo blew on it and it was a picture of Hanahime.
"Onee-chan, what am I supposed to do? It hurts! It's as if your son doesn't even care about me! Well, it hurts a lot more that he looks like a masculine you with your hair cut short so it reminds me a lot of you… back to the point, does waiting for someone really hurt like this?"
She slumped down on the floor. "As if a picture would answer me,"
I hate you for not answering
I wonder if you'll miss me sometimes too yeah
"Ryota, I…"
Minami bit her lip. 'I'm already dead, it's not like he can see me, nor answer me…' She wondered if her son thought about her sometimes, but she discarded that thought and smiled as she looked around the house that Ryota lived in with his teammates.
"Haha, I kinda hate that you can't answer me because I'm just a wandering soul but… I hope you return safely…" Minami clutched the black colored chain wrapped around her neck.
I'm trapped in a time without you
I can't see ahead, I'm so scared
"No, no, this isn't possible… This can't be happening now," Giyo held his head and was crying unstoppably. "Why now!?" He shouted and slammed his fists on the table, and noticed that they began to bleed.
"I knew that I'd lose my Intuition someday, though I never knew when, but why now, when Satsuki is away? Now I can't see ahead of time, I'm scared of what will happen to her,"
The many days that are unfinished
It seems like they'll be waiting for us
Where are you?
Where? Too far away
Aria sat in their dining room, emotionlessly sipping on a cup of tea. She stared at the half-full cup with a disappointed look. Before, it had helped ease the sadness she felt, but right now it had no appeal to her taste whatsoever.
"Hmph. Little brother of mine, where could you be right now?"
Come back home
Can you come back home
Don't leave me at the end of the cold world but come back to my side
"Yuno, Yuno open up please,"
"No, I'm not. I'm going to stay here until-"
"Until your brother gets home?"
Yuno didn't reply and hugged her legs. 'Have faith, have faith in that stupid brother of yours…' She chanted in her head. When she touched the doorknob of her room, it suddenly turned into ice. She looked around in her room and noticed everything was freezing.
Come back home
Can you come back home
I'm pushing back all the pain
I'm still waiting for you like this
Now you gotta do what you gotta do
"Tetsuya-nii, why do you push me as if I do not care?" Ayame asked, clutching a picture of her cousin. "Still, I should ask myself – why do I keep waiting for you despite how much you push me away?"
Ayame closed her eyes and sighed. Sure, their mansion was vast, as expected of a noble family, but living in it alone was lonelier than anyone would think. She had never prayed to have been born a noble blood; she wanted to be normal. But it would seem that her only cousin had already given up on the idea of being a normal citizen and accepted the reality that he'll always be a noble and that he will eventually be betrothed to someone their elders seemed fitting to continue their blood, it might even be her, despite them being cousins.
"Just so you know; I'm still waiting…"
The only thing left here is your shadow
My longing for you tortures me more than my loneliness
Seems like I can catch the sound of your laughter
But the moments weakly scatter like a sand castle
Yomi looked around. She and her sister had various memories in this spacious room; as she remembered them, she could hear the faint sound of her sister's laugh.
'Ah, why did I not do anything when you left?'
She sat down, her eyes bleeding a lot more than before, and reminisced on her memories she had with her beloved sister whom she had not seen in person for two years.
Every night, I get nightmares
Even in my dreams, I call out your name
In a time where everything changes, the one thing that doesn't change
Is that I'm your queen, you're my ruler
Kazuha woke up, panting and sweating. "Another bad dream, seriously, what is wrong with me?" She stood up from her bed, rubbing away her tears. She had a bad dream about Shintaro dying while on the mission. She had seen that dream several times throughout the day while trying to sleep, no matter what time. She suddenly remembered something he said a while back.
"I'm your queen and you're my ruler huh…"
Come back home
Can you come back home
Don't leave me at the end of the cold world but come back to my side
'It's turning cold,' Aria noted as she touched the glass of the window. 'I hope you've been trained to endure this, little brother.'
As she paced around the corridor of their house, she spotted a single snowflake falling on the floor and clicked her tongue. "Really, that freakishly white neighbor lady has to teach her daughter how to control her powers. It's like winter all over again,"
Come back home
Can you come back home
I'm pushing back all the pain
I'm still waiting for you like this
Now you gotta do what you gotta do
Whatever happens, you have to come back breathing, I'll be right here waiting for you...
I accidentally re-uploaded the unedited version, gomen! Well, I can't blame anybody else, I was really sleepy when I uploaded this that I forgot to proofread for corrections.
One of the big mistakes is my use of the name "Himeko" for Kise's mother instead of "Minami". Himeko is from another KnB fanfic I have stored in my computer... I accidentally mixed her up with this fanfic because of my lack of attention.
I do not own KnB. If I did... I'd make it crazier :)
