- >You are Anon, the perfectly normal highschool student, and you are currently going about your perfectly normal morning routine which is as follows.
- >Wake up.
- >Lounge in bed.
- >Contemplate getting up.
- >Continue lounging.
- >Finally decide to get up
- >Lounge for 10 more minutes.
- >Get up.
- >Eat breakfast.
- >Shower.
- >Brush teeth.
- >Get dressed.
- >Collect school supplies.
- >Walk to school.
- >As you complete part 12 of your early morning ritual you glance at the calendar.
- >Wednesday, April 17.
- >It's been four months since Ryūko joined your class, and got pared with you on that stupid research assignment.
- >About three and half months since you received a 'B' on that same assignment.
- >And about two months since you started to realize that Ryūko occupied your thoughts more than most other people.
- >Something about her set your heart a flutter.
- >But you simply go on your merry way, the numbers on the calendar simply being tucked away as auxiliary information as you hurry out the door.
- >You are the coiled mass of life fibres clinging to Anon's scalp.
- >Unlike your unwitting host you actually take note of the date as it has been 4 months since that idiot godrobe had broken the picture frame he and you had been trapped in.
- >4 months since you had attached yourself to Anon's scalp.
- >4 long months of being scrubbed with shampoo, and hosed with water all while trying to hold on for dear life.
- >4 months.
- >And in two days you will finally have enough strength to finish your regeneration and give that bitch Ryūko what she deserves.
- >If you had a face your smile would strike fear into the hearts of children everywhere.
- >"Yo, Anon!"
- >Ryūko's voice grabs your attention, interrupting your slow walk to class.
- "Morning Ryūko, Senketsu."
- >You say tiredly as you stifle a yawn.
- >Ryūko and Senketsu exchange glances.
- >"You alright Anon? Ya look a little tired."
- >You give a dismissive wave as subvert another yawn.
- "I'm fine, it's just early."
- >"Eh, if you say so. Maybe you should go to sleep earlier."
- "Who are you, my mother?"
- >Ryūko points to the eye sewn to her uniform's neckerchief.
- >"His suggestion." She says with a chuckle.
- >You roll your eyes.
- "Whatever. Hey, what class do we have first?"
- >Ryūko thinks for a second.
- >"Uhh... I think it's history."
- "Great, I can sleep through that."
- >You say with smile.
- >Ryūko gives an exasperated sigh as the two of you resume the walk to the first class of the day.
- >You are Senketsu, a perfectly Bro-tier godrobe.
- >And you can feel something in the air.
- >Not just the boredom from listening to droning voice of the history teacher.
- >"And so the German forces were trapped in Russia at the mercy of the soviet troops..."
- >There's a malevolent force that permeates your fibres and gives you the feeling that something isn't right.
- "Ryūko?"
- >"Hmm?"
- "Do you feel... Strange at all?"
- >"Eh! What kind of question is that?!"
- >You roll your eye.
- "That heavy feeling. Are you getting it too?"
- >Ryūko casts an awkward glance in your direction.
- >"Should I be?"
- "..."
- >Ryūko smiles as she turns her attention back to the front of the class.
- >"If it's got you so troubled I'll keep my eye out."
- >You hope that last comment wasn't intentional.
- >Anon-O'-Vision™
- >(In stereo where available)
- >The loud chiming of Westminster Quaters over the school PA brings a smile to your face.
- >As the teacher excuses the class you begin collecting your materials.
- >After less than ceremoniously stuffing your supplies into your bag you make a bee-line for the door.
- "The sooner I get home the quicker I can sleep."
- >You mutter to yourself.
- >Despite napping through two classes today you still find yourself feeling fatigued, perhaps more so than before.
- >All you can think about is getting home and going to sleep.
- >In your single minded quest to return to your bed you weave in and out of the crowded hallways on your way out of the school building and into the sunlight.
- >You stop to give your eyes time to adjust to the light when you feel a tap on your shoulder, as Ryūko steps into your view.
- >"You ran off a the instant we we're let let out, you feeling okay?"
- "Uhh. Yeah I'm fine. Just eager to get home and take a nap."
- >Ryūko gives a concerned look or what looks like one, it's a tad difficult to tell with the sun still scorching your retinas.
- >"You sure you're sleeping enough? You slept through two periods today."
- >You half smile and nod your head.
- "I'm sure."
- >"If you say so. See you tomorrow." >Ryūko waves as she walks away.
- You wave in response and start walking.
- >You fail to take more than five steps however as you lose your balance and stumble forward falling face first onto the ground as you pass out.
- >Your eyes slowly peel open.
- >The blurry image your bedroom ceiling meeting your gaze as your mind slowly wakes up.
- >With a low groan you sit up and wipe the crust from the corners of your eyes.
- "Shit... What happened?"
- >You mutter to yourself as you look around.
- >Your bedroom surrounds you which puts you on edge.
- >The last thing you remember is the ground getting uncomfortably close to your face.
- >How you returned to your house is beyond you.
- >Cautiously you run your hands over your face, thankfully nothing seems swollen or out of place.
- >As you flop back onto your bed the door swings open and collides with the door-stop the loud thump startles you.
- >"You're awake!"
- >You turn towards the doorway to see Ryūko beaming at you.
- "Ryūko?"
- You say.
- "Did you bring me here?"
- >"Yeah, you're heavier than I expected."
- >You blush slightly and turn away from her to hide your reddened cheeks.
- "Uh... Thanks."
- >"No problem."
- >Turning back to face Ryūko again you give her an inquisitive look.
- "Did you really carry me all the way here?"
- >"Yeah, why? Would you've preferred I'd dragged ya?"
- You smile and laugh.
- "No, I'm fine with being carried, just didn't expect it is all."
- >Ryūko smiles.
- >The both of you sit in awkward silence for an uncomfortable length of time before Ryūko breaks the silence.
- >"Well... If you're awake now then I guess I'll get going." Ryūko says as she heads for the door.
- >"Try and get some proper sleep Anon, I don't wanna carry you home again tomorrow."
- >With a wave she's gone, seconds pass and you hear the front door open and close.
- >With a sigh you get up and head for the kitchen.
- >Passing out works up an appetite ya know.
- >Sitting on the table is a plate covered in tinfoil and a note.
- >"Was saving these for the walk home, thought you'd need them more than me.
- >-Ryūko"
- >Peeling back the tinfoil reveals four breaded croquettes.
- >With a smile and a sigh you stuff one of the fried pockets of heaven into your mouth and chew.
- "Ryūko..."
- >Nvidia GSenk technology
- >There it was again.
- >That ominous feeling.
- >It hadn't really gone away from earlier so much as it had faded, but it had become more noticeable now.
- "Ryūko tell me you can feel that."
- >"Barely, is that what you were on about this morning?"
- "Yes."
- >Ryūko breaths out heavily.
- >"Do you think we should be worried?"
- "We should be on guard. Worrying will only make us paranoid."
- >"I suppose you're right." Ryūko says with a sigh.
- >The rest of the walk home is spent in silence.
