'Tsukasa-kun said, "So about Amane and (Y/n), I hope you can do a good job of killing them..."

"Eh?" Yashiro Nene tense up. 'Why would Tsukasa-kun say something like that..?!'

"Yashiro-chan? Are you alright?" (Y/n) asked concerned, noticing that her daikon legged friend was not following them at all.

The twins stopped and glance at the girl behind them, they were already a bit far infront.

"I... I.... I'm gonna change!!!" Yashiro dashed pass them towards the classroom.

"Yashiro-chan?" (Y/n) tilted her head in confusion along with Amane. Tsukasa sweatdropped but kept the grin on his face, knowing what was going on.

"'Kay!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'I need to get things sorted out soon...' Yashiro sighed as she finally reached her desk.

'This place is a world inside a picture, drawn by Mystery #4.... Also known as Shijima-san. Shijima said that if we want to go back to our original world, We would have to kill Amane-kun, (Y/n)-chan and Mitsuba-kun....It seems...' Yashiro fixed her uniform. '....No definitely. That's what the school mystery girl said.'

All of sudden, (Y/n) opened the classroom door and peaked her head inside. "Yashiro-chan? Are you done?"

"Ah! (Y/n)-chan! Were you waiting for me?" Yashiro asked, a little startled by her sudden appearance.

(Y/n) noticed that the daikon legged girl was already wearing her uniform and entered the classroom. Walking towards her, she nodded. "I was standing by the door. I don't want any perverts peaking on you, Yashiro-chan! Especially if it was those twins!"

Yashiro sweatdropped as (Y/n) puffed her cheeks in anger. The (h/c) haired beauty knew the fact that both Amane and Tsukasa are closet perverts, she knows very well that one of them might barge in on Yashiro by 'accident' and pretend to be innocent.

"I-is th-that so?" Yashiro gave her a nervous smile. Just then a thought came into her mind. 'Tsukasa-kun!! But why would Tsukasa-kun know that?!'

Yashiro remembered what Tsukasa whispered to her earlier, she began sweating furiously as she mentally let out a scream.

'Could those two be cahoots?! What do they know?! Are they trying to... GET ME KILL HANAKO-KUN AND HATSUME-CHAN?!'

"Um...Yashiro-chan?" (Y/n) gave the girl a worried look when she saw how frantic she looked. "Are you alright?"

'That's right, Tsukasa-kun... Was killed by Hanako-kun...' Yashiro's eyes widened. 'But... Tsukasa-kun killed Hatsume-chan too... But what do that even means?!'

(Y/n) blinked as Yashiro gasps in realization.

'Could it be....Revenge?! But what does it have to do with Hatsume-chan?! I know she's innocent! Why do he have to drag her into this?!' Yashiro then deadpanned. 'But yet....'

"Yashiro-chan? Are you really alright?" Yashiro looked towards (Y/n) who was now four desks away from her, cowering in fear. "Your facial expressions.... are scaring me...."

The daikon gasps and turned red in embarrasement.

'NOOO!!! SHE THINKS I'M WEIRD NOW!!'

"(Y/N)-CHAN! It's not what it looks like!" Yashiro frantically run towards her as she stuttered an excuse.

The two girls stopped what they were doing when they heard footsteps coming towards them. From the open door, they could see Tsukasa being held by Amane as he tried to approached the classroom.

"Can we go to the classroom?"

"No! Yashiro-san is still changing! And (N/n) will kill me if we entered, uninvited!"

'He doesn't look like he want revenge...' Yashiro thought as she stared at Tsukasa. 'What is Tsukasa-kun really after?'

"They're here already..." (Y/n) sighed. "But atleast, you're done changing...."

The twins then peaked over the slightly open door after Amane knocked. The older twin flinched and laughed nervously when he saw the menacing glare (Y/n) send towards him and his twin. "Um...Yashiro-san? You're done changing, right?"

"Oh, Yes!" Yashiro answered before looking at the twins then to (Y/n). "Sorry for making you wait!"

"We don't mind, right boys?" (Y/n) send an innocent chilling smile making the twins slightly flinched.

"Y-yes, Ma'am!"

"Yup!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Woah!" Amane gawked he entered the rooftop with (Y/n), Yashiro and Tsukasa. "There's a lot of people here!"

"Everyone is here." Yashiro commented.

"Because it's the perfect weather for observing the night sky." Amane explained.

Just then a group of boys appeared, each have their own version of their love strucked faces. "(L/N)-SAMA!"

'(L/n)-sama?!?!' Yashiro frozed as the boys all crowd her (h/c) haired friend. This made Amane frown and Tsukasa's wide innocent smile to appear.

"Oh! You guys are from the lower years, right?" (Y/n) gave them a gentle smile making them swoon. "I'm so happy that you all considered to come!"

"Most of the students here only came because they knew (N/n) was going to be here... They're only interest in her." Amane sighed. Yashiro watched him in sympathy as Tsukasa went through the crowd of fanboys towards the Student Council Secretary.

'It's not fair.....How come (Y/n)-chan be so popular?! It's not fair!' Yashiro mentally cried.

Yashiro know the fact that (Y/n) is quite beautiful, even when she was Hatsume. The daikon legged girl couldn't accept the fact that she was quite popular with the boys. She couldn't help it that her two friends, (Y/n) and Aoi was quite popular.

"Yashiro-san, what do you want to see? Stars or Meteors?" Yashiro snapped back from her thought and look at Amane who was adjusting his telescope. The boy look at her with a curious smile.

"Eh? I h-haven't give it much thought." The daikon legged girl waved her hand nervously. 'To be honest, I'm not really here for Astronomy...'

"I got (N/n)-chan back!" Tsukasa exclaimed as he ran over towards the two holding hands with (Y/n) as he dragged her.

"Tsukasa! Please so down!"

"Ah! (N/n)! I set up our telescope already!" Amane cheerfully exclaimed, grinning widely as he proudly presented the telescope.

"Great! I know a perfect spot, Amane!" (Y/n) smiled. "Perfect for stargazing!"

"Yugi-kun!" The four turn to see Akane running towards them.

"Ah! Akane-kun!" Yashiro exclaimed. Akane was back in one piece.

"Eh? What is it?"

'Earlier he fell apart and broke... But now he's back to normal!'

"I'm so glad..." Yashiro stared at the vice president with so much sincerity making him look at her weirdly.

"About what?"

"So what's up?" Amane placed his hands in his pants' pockets.

Akane look back to the textbook he was holding then back to Amane. "Oh! Could you adjust the telescope for me? I want to see Venus but it's not working."

Amane then approached Akane's telescope and began adjusting it.

"Is it possible?"

"Just leave it to me."

Yashiro watched their interactions, she then noticed (Y/n) staring at Amane with a fond smile. She approached her. "(Y/n)-chan?"

"Oh, Yashiro-chan!" The Student Council Secretary jolted up suprised. She managed to calm herself down. "Do you need something?"

"I just noticed the way you stared at Amane-kun." Yashiro started. "He's more lively than usual."

"Astronomy is what always makes him like this. He got me to love it." (Y/n) answered. "Back then, it was just the two of us who were doing things like this. We usually do stargazing every night.... I guess, having more people out here makes him all giddy to have more people share his love for the stars."

Yashiro nodded in understanding. (Y/n) then smiled, muttering something that Yashiro heard loud and clear.

"I'm glad he can show how he really feels just by doing the things he love with other people..."

"Okay, there it is!" Amane said as he finally fixed Akane's telescope. "Do you want to see it?"

"Yugi-kun! Over here too!" Yamabuki Lemon called out.

"Just a minute!" Amane answered back s he adjusted Akane's telescope even more. Tsukasa however, seems wanting to do want Amane was doing, decided to run towards the blonde to help him.

"I'll do it!"

"Not you!- I meant yout brother!"

"I can do it too!"

"(N/n), Yashiro-san. I'll be right back!" Amane exclaimed, jogging towards where his brother was, before he could break anything.

"Okay." Yashiro answered while (Y/n) sweatdropped.

"Nene-chan~! (Y/n)-chan~! Over here~" The two girls turn to see Aoi waving at them as she sat with Yokoo and Satou.

"Aoi!" Yashiro didn't hesistate to hug her bestfriend.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm so glad... You're all better~"

(Y/n) approach the two girls and decided to join in. "You should have seen her, Aoi-chan! Yashiro was so worried, that she literary started crying!"

Yashiro blushed in embarrassment as Aoi started giggling. The violet haired girl then took a pouch of cookies. "I'm fine as ever. You're so silly, Nene-chan."

She then gently pushed a star shape cookie into the daikon legged girl's mouth. "Have a cookie~"

Aoi then gestured towards the table with tea and cookies next to her. "Would you two like some tea while you do your astronomy observation?"

"With us!" Yokoo and Satou cheered from the other side of the table.

"What type of tea is that, Aoi-chan?" (Y/n) asked, pointing towards the teacup.

"Oh~, It's earl grey. Just the way you like it, (Y/n)-chan~!"

"Thank you!" (Y/n) happily sat besides Satou, who sighed dreamingly as she poured herself a cup. Yashiro approached the table and gasped at the sight of the cookies.

"Wow! So many cookies!" Yashiro exclaimed in awe.

"Don't they look good! We all made it together!" Aoi smiled. "I did the star shapes, Yokoo did the boats and Satou did the stain-glass cookies." She then picked up a unusual cookie with her face painted on it. "And this one is Akane-kun's work."

Yashiro sweatdropped as she took a closer look on the cookie. "Amazing, Is this icing?"

"Oh? Who did these ones?" Yashiro picked up a pouch with planet and moon shaped cookies. She held up a saturn shaped cookie. "Woah! These look realistic!"

"Ah! I made those!" (Y/n) raised her hand up, excitedly. "Actually, I made those for Amane. But I made too many so you guys can have the rest~!"

"Wow, (Y/n)-chan. You're talented." Yashiro commented making the said girl blush. "These are too good to be eaten."

"Thank you, Yashiro-chan...." (Y/n) look down and stood up, she began stuttering. " Umm.....I b-better g-go.... I-I ha-have to find A-Amane..."

'There's the Hatsume-chan I know...'

Yashiro waved bye to the (h/c) haired girl as she took a pouch and dashed away, probably towards where Amane is. The white haired girl then look back to the cookies and saw a bunny shaped one. "A bunny, how cute! Who made this?"

"That's Mitsuba-kun's." Aoi answered.

"Mitsuba-kun..." Yashiro muttered as she look at the cookie. She then looked around.  "Now that you mention it, Where are Kou-kun and Mitsuba-kun?"

"Now that you mention it, they're not here." Yokoo said as he stood up and look around the rooftop. Satou did the same.

"Maybe they're lost?" Satou asked, getting worried.

"Kou-kun...." Yashiro muttered. 'Earlier he went running after Mitsuba-kun... He couldn't be planning to kill him?'

Yashiro shook her head furiously, trying to get the thought off of her mind. She slapped herself. 'It's definitely not that! He's finding another way to get us out of here!! I have to do my best too!'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Still motivation is a thing...' Yashiro stood with her classmates as they all did their observation. 'What should I do?'

Yashiro hasn't seen Amane nor (Y/n) since they've arrive at the rooftop. But She knew that they might be somewhere.

The daikon legged girl spotted Amane's telescope from the exit roof, she then climbed the ladder. "There's no one here..?"

Yashiro thought that Amane or (Y/n) was here. She decided to use the telescope.

"Wow.... I can see the stars..." Yashiro moved the telescope and saw a constallation. "This one is..."

"Scorpious."

Yashiro jolted up suprised and moved to see Amane laying on (Y/n)'s lap as she sat near the edge of the roop. They were actually stargazing.

"Huh?! Amane-kun, (Y/n)-chan! You two were here?!"

"Amane's been here since I left the table, Yashiro-chan." (Y/n) smiled at her and patted an open space next to her. "You can seat here with us if you want."

"See that red star in the middle?" Amane pointed out towards the sky. "That's the brightest star in the scorpious constallation."

"It's called Antares, right? A red giant?" (Y/n) asked her childhood friend.

"Yup! You got that right, (N/n)." Amane grinned.

Yashiro smiled at their small interaction. She look through the telescope to see the star, Amane was pointing at.

"Yashiro-san, can you see it?" Amane asked.

"Yeah..."

"It's actually a twin star. But it's light is so bright that you can't see it's companion star next to it through this telescope." Amane started.

"The light of Antares is 100 times brighter than our sun." (Y/n) added. "It's really far away, so we don't perceive it as much as the sun. But it's a really bright star."

"I didn't knew you know a lot about stars, (Y/n)-chan." Yashiro said, smiling softly at her.

"Well if you have a childhood friend who's love for astronomy is off the chart, you'll learn a lot due to their constant ranting." (Y/n) said, blushing slightly. Her answer made Yashiro giggled and for Amane to sputter.

"Wh-what?! I don't rant that much about the stars!"

"Yes you do!"

Amane sighed. Knowing that he won't be able to win this arguement, he decided to continue where they last stop. "But step that aside, the light we seeing now is atleast 600 years old. The red giants are stars that are soon going to die. So we might not even seeing the real Antares."

"So...Even if it's visible...It could be already dead." (Y/n) finished, seemingly able to read what was on Amane's mind.

"Yeah. In way, it's a bit like a ghost."

'A ghost...' Yashiro stared at the two. "Um... Amane-kun, (Y/n)-chan, do you two want to look?"

"No. Thanks for the offer anyways, Yashiro-chan." Yashiro watched as (Y/n) gave her a smile. But knowing Hatsume for a quite a while now, she knew that the smile was fake. It was not genuine but most likely a depressed and sad one. "I already saw it a hundred times now."

"How about you, Amane-kun?"

"Um...I'm good."

"But..." Yashiro look back at the telescope. "It's so pretty..."

"Exactly!" Yashiro look back at Amane who the sat up from (Y/n)'s lap. "If I look at it too much, it makes me want to go there. And I've made up my mind now. I'm not going anywhere."

Yashiro's eyes widened as she remembered the same boy in a memory said the same thing.

"...After all, going to space is impossible!" Amane added, joking.

"I'm staying here, with Amane." (Y/n) added. "He can't be trusted alone, where ever he goes, I'll follow. I promised to stay by his side."

Yashiro started having flashbacks of the same little girl, she asked to make a promise to.

(Y/n) started giggling as Amane began to whine. "(N/n), I'm not a little kid anymore! Stop treating me that as if I can't take care of myself."

"But you are! You can't last without me, A-M-A-N-E~"

An image of the two ghosts began to appear into Yashiro's mind.

"....Hanako-kun.....Hatsume-chan...."

"Eh?" The two humans paused and stared at her.

"I mean, Amane-kun, (Y/n)-chan. You two are Hanako-kun and Hatsume-chan, after all. Aren't you?"

The childhood duo stares at her with wide eyes as they started sweating.

"...No..." They said in unison. Yashiro gave them a sad stare.

Amane look down and took (Y/n)'s hand in comfort. "What kind of person are they?"

Yashiro gave him a confused look.

"What Amane meant is.... how are we similar to this Hanako-kun and Hatsume-chan?" (Y/n) asked. "Are we that similar?"

"......Yeah...." Yashiro said. "You two are similar."

Amane and (Y/n) watched as Yashiro stood up, her back facing them. "Hanako-kun... He does various annoying things. He's always overprotective over Hatsume-chan, acting like a complete perv and making dumb jokes."

(Y/n) snorted and quickly covered her mouth as Amane gave Yashiro a hurt look. "That guy is similar to me? How?"

"And Hatsume-chan...." Yashiro ignored his question as Yashiro sat behind (Y/n) and leaned her back against hers. "She's awfully nice and too guillable. She can be really reckless and too motherly, but she's only like that to protect the ones she loved."

"Too guillable? Reckless? Motherly?" (Y/n) sweatdropped as Amane snickered in which she slapped the back of his head, hard. Making him whined at the pain.

"But...I don't hate them." The two stopped and stared at Yashiro who now facing them with a determined expression. "So let's escape together! To the real world!"

Her determined look didn't waver as the childhood duo stare back at her with a confused but serious expression.
