Summary: A flash fic. Fan prequel to the video game’s events.
Misa and Suzuka, best friends and Blade Templars, go shopping together.
I am waiting for Suzuka after school. Suzuka promised to go shopping with me after school. As soon as I see her, I wave to her.
"Suzuka, this way."
Suzuka joins me and we go shopping. While my best friend looks at clothes, I look at fashion jewelry. A barrette with a blue butterfly catches my attention. I take it.
"Hey, Misa." Suzuka calls me. "Come see what I found."
I go to Suzuka. My best friend shows me a white top with black pants decorated with red flowers.
"I'm thinking of buying it. Did you find something to your liking in the jewelry?"
"Yes," I reply, showing Suzuka the barrette.
"A blue butterfly, huh? It symbolizes the passage of time, change, transformation."
"Wow, I didn't know that. You know a lot of things, Suzuka."
"Well, it's nothing. Really. I just read a lot of books."
We pay for our purchases and go home. I remember that day very well. It was 3 days before Suzuka took the Demon Blade. Oh Suzuka. Why did you do that?
