an Adolescence Apocalypse Story.

It had been three years.

Three long years.

She now knew that they were wrong. The outside world wasn't what everyone was looking for. How could they be?

Utena would have given nearly anything to be back at Ohtori. To be cradled from responsibility.

To still believe that she was a prince.

The outside world was not kind to princes. Everything was cold here, cold, grey and impersonal. She had been living in the same apartment for three years and still she knew no one else in the building. No one cared about young girl with pink hair. No matter who she was or what she had done.

Anthy was gone.

The Princess had left her Prince, to return to Ohtori. She had treated it like a grim duty, but Utena disagreed. She wanted to be back where everyone knew her. Wakaba and all her friends. Even Juri, and Miki.

Even Touga, in his own way.

She had been having the visions again.

Twice now she had seen a man with long red hair. On the street, and in a cafe. Each time it tore at her heart. The truth was, no matter how much she had loved Anthy, she had loved Touga more. He was her whole world. Her prince.

It was all too much.

Before she knew it, teardrops were falling down her face, into the mug of now-cold tea.

It was all too much.


***
Touga shivered a little as he walked at a brisk pace down the Tokyo street. He hadn't expected it too be so cold out, and therefore had not thought to bring a jacket. He gnawed at his lip, knowing that he was going to pay for it dearly. Ever since nearly drowning when he was twelve, he had been terribly prone to colds, which more often than not turned into bronchitis, or worse-- pneumonia. He had been hospitalized twice this year alone, and more often than he could count during his childhood.

Briefly he closed his eyes against the pain thinking of his childhood caused. Until he had 'died,' and come to the outside world, his life had been a living hell. His new parents, here, had been wonderful.

There was only one thing he could ever need or want, and it was something his parents couldn't provide.

He breathed into his cupped hands as he went past the small coffee shop. It was only by chance that he looked inside the window.

***

Utena looked up as the door opened. She immediately regretted it.

Another vision.

This one had to be the worst. This man, whoever he was, looked exactly like Touga.

And he was coming her way.

*No...go away, please go away,* she thought. *Don't torture me...Touga is dead*

"Utena?"

Oh God...now she was *hearing* things...

"Go away," she said, turning away. "I don't know you."

"Utena..." Now the man sounded hurt. "Its me..."

She turned back around. "But you're dead..." she whispered, her eyes filling with tears. "You can't be here..."

Touga gently took her hands in his own, smiling at her gently, that special smile that was just for her. "I am here. I died in the old world...and I came here...to the Outside world."

She kissed his warm hands, then moved up to his face. The face she never thought she'd ever see again.

"But you died...I came to your funeral...I saw you in the coffin...you would have liked it...there was...all kinds of roses, and you were dressed in your uniform..." She could barely speak for crying so hard.

"Shhh...that was all an illusion. We're here. This is the truth. This is the outside world. Please don't cry. I can't bear to see my prince cry."

"Who' crying?" she laughed breathlessly. "Now that we're together, I'll never cry again."
