Again, Mitsuru found herself pondering her reasons to fight, or even to live. Until that point, she only fought to protect her father, though she said she was atoning for her grandfather's sin. It was afternoon already, and she was on gekkoukan's rooftop. The twilight seemed to have a strange sadness that filled her heart.

- There you are. - said a voice behind her. It was Yukari. - I've been looking for you. It's rare for you to miss a Student Council meeting.

- I take it someone asked you to find me?

- Well, yeah, even though I'm not a member.

- ... Sorry about that.

- They seem pretty busy, with the class trip and all. I bet you have your hands full, since it's both for juniors and seniors...

- Hmph... The class trip, huh... Even if I went, I'd only spoil the fun...

- You're not thinking of skipping the trip, are you? - Mitsuru kept silent. - You can't do that! ... Ya know, I've been meaning to talk to you...

- Is that so...?

- To tell you the truth, you're not the easiest person to relate to. But, I know what it's like to lose a father...

- Takeba...

- I decided that I should be more up front with you from now on... - but a voice interrupted them.

- Ah, there she is... - it was Ryoji. - Heeey! I've been looking everywhere for you.

- Ryoji-kun - said Yukari, as she sighed. - Why are you here... ?

- Huh? But I was doing the same as you. I was trying to find Mitsuru-senpai. Some girl I've never met before asked me to look for her...

- What?

- I wasn't the only one she asked, either. She said if we don't find her, the class trip might get canceled...

- Sounds like the Vice President has the whole school looking for you... - said Yukari.

- But I'm the lucky one who found you, Kirijo-san... You're quite stunning, if I may say so. Would you like to go out sometime? I know this one restaurant: it's on the top floor os a 3-star hotel... The view at night is almost as breathtaking as you.

- ...Huh? - she replied.

- S-senpai! You better get back to the meeting! - Yukari interrupted.

- I-I suppose so... Takeba... Thank you for your concern... For now, I will attend to my duties. - and she left.

- Hey, she didn't answer my question. - said Ryoji.

- "For now," huh. I don't like the sound of that...

- Um, Yukari-san... How 'bout you? Would you like to join me for dinner? I know this place on Shirakawa Boulevard... - Yukari glared at him, and steped on his feet. - OW!





well, if I were her, I'd punch him the face lolz or not, dunno
That's it for today, I wanted to practice some dawn/dusk scenarios, next one will be the same deal, you'll see...
