Master of Teasing

"Promise"

High School

At the gate school stood Nishikata... He looked at school's windows. 
- Hm... Strange. Something is wrong around here.
Nishikata look around. In the window he noticed Amaya and tried to call her. But she didn't answer. 
- Amaya! Wait! ... Hm... I need to check it.
Nishikata went to school. 
- Is here really dark. Someone is here? Hey! Amaya! Takagi-san! Nakai! Anyone! 
Nishikata continued to go. Along the way, he saw traces of blood and pogroms. Everywhere was the darkness and the gloom. Nishikata felt the coldness and within, and outside. He had the feeling that he was being watched. No... the feeling of a familiar person...

- Huh... W-What happend here?
- ... Nishikata... - sounded very, very familiar voice for Nishikata.
- Eh?!
- Nishikata... Come to me... Please.
- That... voice... 
- I'm so cold... And lonely...
- I... heared that early... B-But where?
Nishikata continued to follow the call of voices. As he walked, he tried to remember whose voice it was.
- Do you remember when we were together? When we were happy? Isn't, Nishikata?
When he reached his goal, Nishikata he saw Amaya and Takagi tied up next to her.

- TAKAGI! What are you doing, Amaya?
- You still don't understand? You forgot me?
- What are you talking about?

Suddenly Amaya went to the fountain and washed off her make-up, took off her wig and changed her voice...
- Don't you recognize me? This is me... Kyoko!

Takagi and Nishikata were very surprised; in especially Nishikata.
- It's impossible! I am...
- You forgot about me! Our friendship! Our love! YOUR PROMISE!
-  Oh ... You disappeared from my life! I've never forgotten you! The only one to blame is you!
- Me?! You don't know what I've been through!
- I know... your parents...
- I spit on them! I'm talking about you! You chose instead of me, this... thing... Takagi!
- Wait. ... Kyoko... I understood. You killed them!

- They disturbed me. - said Kyoko with disgust. In any case, it doesn't matter. I'll give you...
 Kyoko grabbed Takagi and asked Nishikata its question:
- I can forget your transgression. Unless... - Kyoko started beat Takagi.
- AAA! - Takagi scream because of pain. 
- LET HER GO! She's not guilty! 
- AAA!!

- Stop it!!! Kyoko!
- You'll choose who you love more. Your best childhood friend or ... is it nothingness?

Nishikata looked at Takagi and Kyoko; he lowered his head and quickly raised it. 
- I said: "Let her go, now!"

- Your choice. Kyoko looked at Nishikata with disappointment and a broken heart. - Juben, get over him. 
- Huh? - Nishikata didn't understand how suddenly it began the healthy man.
-  Nishikata! - Takagi shouted as fast until it hit the stomach. 
- Shut up, stupid! - Amaya took Takagi.
- T-Taka-GI... Trait... Juben, stop! We're friends, remember?

But Juben remained silent and continued to beat Nishikata.
-  Amaya, meanwhile, took Takagi to the back room where he was lying... Tanabe-Sensei.
- Keep him company.
*door closed*

- (We have to get out of here! And, as soon as possible!)

Takagi began to look around and saw a glass jar. Grabbing her, she broke her and cut the rope with a piece of shrapnel. Takagi immediately began to awaken the teacher. 
- Tanabe-Sensei! Tanabe-Sensei! Wake up! - in a moment, Tanabe-sensei waked up.
- Argh! My head... So much pain... What... happend? Takagi-san?
- No time to explain! We need help Nishikata, he is in great danger!
- Okay. Give me a sec; and you check what's going on in there now, got it?
- Yes. Oh... and... can you break that door?
- Hm... Sure. - Tanabe-sensei kicked door with his foot and she opened.
- Thanks.

Takagi came out of the back room and fled to Nishikata.
- (Hold On, Nishikata. I'm coming.)
 But suddenly, something stopped her... It was Amaya. 
- Lost something?
- AAA! - Takagi fell to the floor and quickly got up, ran away.
- Let's play in "Hide and Seek". But don't forget, i always wins.
Takagi hid in one of the classrooms. She trembled with fear and was afraid to get out from under the desks. 
- Where are you, Takagi-chan? You cannot hide from me. 
Takagi closed her eyes and remebered her nightmare. She remebered Nishikata's dead.
- (If I'm constantly afraid, I'll lose him forever... No way! Takagi crawled out from under the Desk and stood up, she's confident voice said, I'm not afraid! I'm not afraid!!!)
-Attagirl!
- Ah! -  Takagi was taken aback and picking up a ruler, she hit Amaya in the face.
- Argh! Bitch! You're gonna pay for this!
-  This is unlikely! - said suddenly emerged Tanabe-Sensei and one blow in solar plexus, then Amaya has fallen without consciousness. 
- Tanabe-Sensei!

- Where's Nishikata?

Takagi pointed out him, where is Nishikata and Tanabe leaving Takagi with Amaya ran to him. Takagi quickly took the rope left over from Tanabe-Sensei and tied the Amaya.
- for what? why did he choose you over me?!
- Because you didn't love him... You just needed it because of your inner emptiness!
- How would you know that?

- You're yandere... don't you?
- *puts the eyes down* ...
- I thought so...
- I hate you!
- ... - I'm sorry about you. You can be a nice girl...
- AAA!
- Huh?!
- I guess Juben dealing with Tanabe-sensei. He's very powerful.
Takagi ran to where the scream sounded. As soon as she ran, she noticed that Tanabe-Sensei had dealt with Juben.  Nishikata lying on the floor unconscious. 
- Nishikata! - she ran up to him and started to feel his pulse. - There's a pulse. Glory to God! Takagi was able to Wake Nishikata by pushing the pressure point between his nose and lips. 
- Argh... T-Takagi...

- I'm glad you're okay! - she started hugging him and crying.
After 20 minutes, the school had police and an ambulance. All the victims were taken to the hospital and Amaya and Juben to prison.

Hospital

- Um... Wha?... What happend?
- Mina...?! Mina! You're a wake up! - said a joyful voice Yukari. - Sanae, she's wake up!
- Cool. I'm glad, that you okay. 
- *smile* thank you, friends. - they hugged together.

- ... Nishikata... Nishikata... 
- Um... Takagi-san? 
- How are you?
- Not bad... And you?
- Good.
- I see...
They both looked in different directions. But not because of embarrassment, but because of fear. They didn't know what to do after that. 
- Nishikata... I... i want to say you something...
- ...
- I know, that it will be make you pain, but... Nishikata... I moving...
For Nishikata this news was unexpected and even... sad.
- And when? (She's moving!? B-but... )
- Tommorow... - she said with sad voice. She really won't to goodbye with him.
- I see... (Dammit! She look so upset.) Takagi-san, you... you really need it?
- ... 
- I see... Anyway, I...
- I'm sorry Nishikata. I need to go. See you, tommorow...
- Y-yeah... *sigh* I guess, that it... -  Nishikata lay down on the bed noticed a note. It said, "Have you forgotten the last question?" 
- What it doesn mean? Hm... Ah... ("You stay with me... forever?") But she moving, then why she write this? 

Next chapter will be when it works. Place your bets! Will everything be as usual or... Takagi have to move? Well, thank you for everything.
