Then, there was the stuff other than Nabiki’s personal items that had been altered in a flash. Luckily the morning newspaper gave plenty of information in that regard. Being pretty much completely motivated by money, the Rivalson Corporation had been the first thing to catch Nabiki’s eye. From what little she could gather from the paper and a lot of guesswork, it was some mega-corporation that must have sprung up in the past twenty years and seemed to be the lead producer in, well… everything cutting edge as far as she could tell.
“So Akane… what’re you doing after school?” Nabiki asked as she walked beside her sister towards school.
“Huh?” Akane replied before stopping suddenly and looking over to her sister in confusion. What was up with the curiosity? Nabiki hadn’t taken an interest in Akane’s life since… well… ever, actually. “Well, I’m going home like always Nabiki. Although, I guess I could stick around with Yuka for awhile, or we could stop off at Sakura Inn to visit with Sayuri for awhile I guess. Why’d you ask?”
“What? I can’t be a little curious about what my little sister is doing nowadays?” Nabiki replied with a shrug. Sakura Inn, the name didn’t ring any bells. Although Nabiki didn’t know what Akane’s friends did after school anyways, and the name Sakura was pretty commonplace, so that bit of info was useless. She had already learned from the previous day of school that Furinkan was the exact same as when she left it, complete with the crappy merchandise shop in the basement. In fact it seemed that everything within the district was just as it was yesterday on the outside.
Then a few minutes later and after a bit of thinking, Nabiki finally found a way to phrase her second question without sounding too suspicious. “So Akane, I was thinking-”
“I HATE BOYS!”
And was thus cut short as her little sister stormed ahead in her old –and unfortunately- normal routine.
