::Fade in to somewhere out in the country where Kozue kneels by a set of railroad tracks, completely intent on the task at hand: tying Reanna to them::
"I told you to stay away from my brother," Kozue says as she tightens the final knots:: "But you wouldn't listen. So no I have to kill you."
"Rghups dkgis fli bul sgings dkeigsielgussi?"
"What?" Kozue asks... "Oh. Gomen." ::Kozue removes the piece of duct tape from Reanna's mouth:: "What was that again?"
"I said, I suppose," Reanna answers. "But isn't this a bit melodramatic?"
"This is Utena, remember? Besides," she says, "there wasn't a flight of stairs handy to push you down, so I figure this is the next best thing."
::Reanna nods, as if this is a perfectly reasonable concept::
"Nanami wanted to come along and watch your demise," Kozue tells her, "but she never would have been able to take it."
"Of course."
::A train whistle is heard in the distance::
"There's the train," Kozue grins evilly::
"Wow, and on time, too." Reanna adds::
::The two watch the train appear over the horizon. Kozue growls:: "Listen, you're not making this any fun!! Aren't you going to scream or anything?"
"If you want me to."
::Kozue screams instead, and almost immediately, Touga shows up::
"I'm sorry, Kozue-kun, but I can't let you do this."
::Kozue looks as if she were a child who was just told she couldn't have just one cookie before dinner:: "Why not?" she pouts.
"Because I'm chivelrous."
"Didn't what we did in the piano room last night mean anything?"
"WHOA..." Reanna interrupts. "Too much information!..."
"SHUT UP!"
"Wait just a minute!" a new voice yells. Utena enters:: "*I'm* going to rescue her!"
::Touga looks incredulously at Utena:: "Why you?"
"Weren't you listening to the introduction? They play the thing at the beginning of almost every episode..."
"Uh... guys..." Reanna says, "that train is getting awfully close..."
"Just a minute, Reanna!" Touga says.
::The train's whistle sounds again, much louder this time::
"Well, I think Reanna would rather be rescued by me," Touga says.
::Utena bends down by Reanna:: "Who would you rather be rescued by, me or Touga?"
::Reanna attempts to shrug her shoulders:: "Kamaimasen."
"Well, you're a lot of help." ::Utena stands up and turns to Touga:: "Why don't we duel for it?"
::Reanna screams. Utena glares at Reanna:: "Just a second, Reanna. You're not the center of everybody's universe, after all." ::Utena and Touga begin dueling::
"TASUKETE!"
::Miki wanders onto the scene, followed by Anthy. Reanna sighs in relief::
"Thank the kami! Micky, you'll save me, ne?"
::Miki clicks his stopwatch:: "Miss Reanna, what are you doing down there?"
"You should get off those railroad tracks before you get hurt, Reanna-sama," Anshi smiles pleasantly.
"Oh, I would... BUT I'M TIED TO THEM!!!" ::Reanna looks at the train. She now has to shout to be heard:: "SO WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE UNTIE ME?!"
::Reanna suddenly realizes that she has already been untied. She realizes with surprise who her rescuer is:: "Kozue...?"
::Kozue shrugs:: "Hey, I realized that this has been a lot of fun! But if I let that train run over you, I can never do this to you again... or something even worse."
"Oh, good..."
::Reanna and Kozue look down the tracks, and the train is practically on top of them. Kozue pulls Reanna off the tracks just in time::
::Reanna lets out another sigh of relief:: "Now I can introduce my shrine to Miki!" ::Reanna notices that Kozue has a very viscious look on her face. Reanna laughs nervously as everyone facefaults::
"Heh heh heh... ?"
