At Hidashi House.

Hidashi Invited Karatsu to play with him on his house.

"Yo! Hidashi!"

"Great. You're here. Look. I have my new gadget again! The PK4!!" Hidashi shows his PK4 to Karatsu.

"Eh? Amazing. You're a real gamer, Hidashi" Kisara suddenly showed up and Hidashi shocked.

"K-Kisara!?.. I only invite you Karatsu. Why did you bring that girl here? She's not a gamer like us." Hidashi said.

"How rude... I'm Karatsu's Girlfriend! So i will go with him whatever he goes!" She holds Karatsu's hand then look at him.

"Tch! Fine. Since today is our day off. Let's have a duel! Kisara Daisuke. You know this game before. We played it before you leaved Japan." Hidashi looks at her seriously as he gave the controller to her.

"You mean? Tengoku? The History game?" Kisara quickly sits and picked her favorite character.

"Tch! History game or whatever is still game!" As he picked his character too and the fight started.

Karatsu watched them.

"That idiot. He said that Kisara is not a gamer. Actually he's enjoying on this game with her." He said on himself.

The match ended and Kisara won the game.

"I'm not a gamer but i can beat you! Hahaha" Kisara laughs at him as she give the another controller at Karatsu.

"Let's play together!" Kisara smiled at him.

"Okay!"

-------------------------

Meanwhile, The Girl named Natsuko Tokugawa enters her apartment. She put her bag in the table then sits on a chair.

"What should i do..? Hidashi is ignoring me.. He don't even know me. He already forget me."

"He don't want to see his sister.." She looks on the photo again.

"If we can turn back the past we can still continue the days we spend together. That day.."

[Flashback] (12 years ago)

At Hidashi's house. Karatsu and Kisara leaves on his place and he saw a black haired girl standing beside him.

"Who are you?" Hidashi asked.

"I-i'm N-Natsuko." She replied.

"Natsuko? Are you here to be my friend?"

"Y-yes.. I-i don't have many friends too.. S-so l-let's be friends" Natsuko looks at him seriously.

"Understood! We are Friends now. I'm Hidashi Koto. Nice to meet you" Hidashi shakes her hand then let her enter to his house.

[Natsuko's POV]

That day. We spend time each other playing his favorite game. He always invited me on every event on his house. I meet another friends again and i'm happy to have them.

But.. One day...

Hidashi's Parents passed away. He and his sister Chihiro are the only person who survived on that accident.

The Cheerful Hidashi i meet before has changed. He forget about me and his past. Also his sister he hates her so much.

"Get Out of this house!! I don't need you! You're just a nuisance!" Hidashi shouted.

"This is not your house, Hidashi! Try to respect me once. I'm your sister." Chihiro gets mad at him.

"Respect? Tch! No way!" Hidashi added then closed the door.

Chihiro grab her bag then walks away. Natsuko tries to go on his house but Karatsu arrived.

"Hey? Hidashi? Are you okay? If you need help me and Kisara are here for you."

"Shut up! Get Lost!"

"Jeez.. Don't be like that. I will back tomorrow, I hope you're okay." Karatsu walks away then Natsuko tries again but she decided to go home.

-----

He never know about the past. He don't remembered everything. He just do that in order to escape the reality.

[End of Flashback]

"Hidashi..." Natsuko lays on her bed then starts to sleep.

Meanwhile at Hidashi house. Kisara fell asleep on Karatsu's lap. As they continue to play.

"I heard that your sister wants to see you." Karatsu said when playing

"My sister? That Chihiro?"

"Yeah."

"Teaching me about the nonsense history of this world...? I refuse. I don't want to see her." Hidashi kills the boss on the game then stand up.

"I'm done already. You can go home with Kisara" He added.

"Huh? Why are you mad? I'm just saying that your sister wants to see you" Karatsu responded.

"If my sister dies on that accident. I will be happy to be alone. Tch! I'm happy as a member of Scarlet Dream. I don't need everything now just that career is enough.

Taking back the past are just a waste of time." Hidashi closed his PK4 then looks at him.

"I know you do the same. You hate the past. Those bastards... you treated like a friend are the person who leave and forget you in the end. They're plague in the world they deserved to die just like my sister.. No.. that Chihiro."

Karatsu holds his necktie and looks at him seriously.

"What the hell is wrong with you!? Why are you saying those things?" Karatsu said as Kisara saw them.

"Tch! Hearing that name... was pissing me off. Being a gamer is better than being a slave of your own sister. You may leave now." Hidashi looks at him madly.

"Karatsu... Hidashi.. Don't fight please..." Kisara stopped Karatsu and Hidashi.

"I don't know what's going on to you Hidashi. You're not the Hidashi i know." Karatsu moves backward and holds Kisara's hand then went outside.

Hidashi closed the door and sits on floor. He punches the floor many times.

Kisara is worried about Karatsu and Hidashi after what she saw earlier.

"Idiot... Is there something wrong with you..? Why are you acting up like that. Why do you hate your sister?" He asked himself why Hidashi is being acting like that.

As they leave the place. After that, The class started. Karatsu noticed that Hidashi is absent. He never attend the meeting of Scarlet Dream.

"You're Hidashi's Friend?" A white girl approaches on Karatsu.

"Ahh. Yeah. I am. May i help you?" Karatsu shocked when she saw A white haired girl

"I'm his sister. Chihiro Koto"

"Ehh? Hidashi's Sister? That white hair, Cute Outfit... You looks like my sister. Laura." Karatsu said.

"Ara.. It's Ka-chan. You're Laura's Little brother. I knew about your sister. Laura and I are Friends. We always hanging out when we have a day off." Chihiro replied.

"Sister..?" Karatsu thinks about it then Chihiro asked him.

"What's wrong?"

"Ah! Nothing. By the way, Why are you here?" Karatsu sits on the bench.

"How was Hidashi? Is he doing well?"

"Yeah. I know you're worried about him right? Hidashi's fine. He spend his time on playing game" Karatsu replied.

"I see. Did he still mad on me?"

"I cannot answer you. Hidashi changed when i talk about you. I don't know the reason why.."

"I should visit him sometimes. Let me change the topic. Do you know the girl.. Natsuko Tokugawa?" Chihiro takes a picture of 4 kids. It was Karatsu, Kisara, Hidashi and Natsuko.

"Natsuko Tokugawa? It's a familiar name. I heard it to somewhere before.."

Chihiro showed the picture to him. Karatsu took it and he get shocked after seeing the picture.

"Are you kidding me? That girl is also our Childhood Friend?"

"Yes. Natsuko-chan was invited on Hidashi's birthday. You're always teasing her with Kisara. Haha.. You really forget it huh. Natsuko treasure it. It's a good memory she said." Chihiro smiled at him then touches his shoulder.

"Hidashi start being a loner after our parents died on a accident. Me and Hidashi are the only survivor. That incident called "The Nagasaki Tragedy" Hundreds of people died including my parents.. I don't believed that i survive." Chihiro starts looking at the sky then showed him the scars on her neck.

"Why Hidashi is mad at you?"

"He really loves Mom.. He was on trauma after realizing that Mother died. He thinks that i don't care about them since i find a job for his future. Since then.. He never wants to see me. I am right? He wants me to die as well." Chihiro cries after saying that.

"She cried..." He said on himself.

-------------------------

At Music Club. The Scarlet Dream are preparing their Halloween Costume for their next performance. Hidashi appeared all of a sudden. Wearing a suit like "Sanada Yukimura" of Basara.

"Woah!! What kind of outfit was that?" Yukihara asked.

"S-sanada Yukimura!! You told me that you hate History?" Kisara added.

"Sanada Yukimura??" Yukina thinks about his brother.

"Shut up! I just want to wear this clothes for our Halloween Party" Hidashi replied.

Karatsu arrived on the club as he seen Hidashi and then...

"Unrivaled Spear of World Domination, Sanada Genjiro Yukimura! Is here" Hidashi pointed his spear on Karatsu.

"What!? What the hell are you doing? Point down that Spear to me!" Karatsu said.

"Wow! He looks good on that outfit!" Ayami said.

"You're right. I want to wear some clothes like that" Fumi added.

"Ehh? I should act like him huh?" Ishida take a sword on a box that Hidashi brought.

"Woah!! Ishida Mitsunari?" Marika said as she comes at Ishida touching the sword he holds.

"I don't understand at all. I thought we are going to wear Halloween Outfit.. but you actually wear a Warrior suit.." Yukina said when looking away from them.

"You can wear those Halloween Outfit but i'll still wear this one." Hidashi went outside as the other are speechless.

Karatsu wears a black tuxedo and put some scary cosmetic on his face then he holds a sword. He looks like Undead Swordsman.

The others are finish on wearing their costume.

"You looks good on that outfit" Natsuko said when sitting beside him.

"What are you doing here? Did my sister tell you to followed me? Don't be her slave and don't waste your time on me." Hidashi looks at her seriously.

Natsuko looks back at him as she shows a banner of Tokugawa Ieyasu on her hand.

"This is the proof. That i was the granddaughter of Tokugawa Ieyasu. I just came here to see you." Natsuko smiled at him but Hidashi ignored it.

"Fine.. You're his granddaughter of that guy." He replied.

"You look like Sanada Yukimura."

Hidashi stands and he noticed that Natsuko wears a Shrine maiden outfit (Tsuruhime)

"Ohh.. Tsuruhime? It looks good to you." Hidashi said when start walking away.

"Really?" She blushed.

"Yeah. So leave me alone. I have some business to do."

Natsuko stands alone. She feel upset on Hidashi's reaction.

"Hidashi..."

After leaving Natsuko. Hidashi's sister arrived.

"It's been a while. Hidashi" Chihiro said.

"I don't want to see you. So get lost." He replied.

"...."

"So you're the one who ask that Tokugawa girl to stalk and followed me huh? You pissed me off."

The rain starts to fall and Chihiro get her umbrella to share it with Hidashi but he pushes her away then he start to walk away.

"Better to leave me alone. You're just wasting your time"

After the Halloween Party of Scarlet Dream. Karatsu and Kisara decided to go on Hidashi's place to talked with him about the party. He saw him and Natsuko having an argument.

"You're a liar. Stop talking about your nonsense family!"

"You're wrong! Chihiro didn't ask me to do that. I just want to see you. We are friends right?"

"Friend? Tch! I don't remembered you."

Natsuko tries to touch him but he already pushed her.

"What the hell are you doing, Hidashi!?" Karatsu said.

"Natsuko-chan? Are you okay?" Kisara asked.

"Don't worry about me. I want him to remembered me" Natsuko replied.

"That's enough Hidashi! You're hurting someone! Be yourself!" Karatsu shouted.

"Shut up! It's none of your business."

"I'm your bestfriend! That's why i won't let you to hurt someone."

"I don't have a friends!! Game is!"

"Hidashi! You pissed me off!"

"Wanna fight me, Karatsu? Will you take me down?"

"I don't have a choice."

Karatsu and Hidashi looks angrily to each others. The rain gets stronger.

"Karatsu? Hidashi? Please don't fight!" Kisara said.

"Please don't do that." Natsuko added.

"You're not the Hidashi that i know! You completely changed! That makes you look idiot!" Karatsu shouted.

"You too. You act like different person after entering a relationship with Kisara. You love someone before right? Before switching on this school. You love Haruka!? She rejected you because you're a sensitive jerk and attention seeker! After that you tried to confess to Shi--"

Karatsu punches him right on the place.

"Haruka and Shizuka has nothing to do with this. I already forget that painful past of mine. So don't ever talked about them anymore."

"If you don't stop being like that! I will never forgive!"
