5 An Attempt to Bring Light to a Darkened Heart

Zane~Kun and I were standing in front of Nana's house. "Zane~Kun, are you sure you want to do this." I ask. "Absolutely! Zane~Kun believes everyone can be a good person if they just try!" Zane~Kun says. "Yeah, but... I don't think Nana can EVER be a good person, Zane~Kun..." I say. "Well, maybe she just needs a push in the right direction!" Zane~Kun says, before skipping towards Nana's house. I follow him, to make sure he doesn't get himself hurt.

I hear a knock at the door. It better not be another one those girl scout brats. I open the door and see a boy with a sickening amount of pink on him. "Hello there, my name is Zane~Kun! Zane~Kun has heard that you've been not such a nice person for a very long time." The boy says. I scoff. "And what do you plan to do about it?" I ask. "This!" He then hugs me. "Ugh! Get off of me, you boy-man-thing!" I say, as I try to push him off of me. Although, I have to admit. Something about the hug feels... ever so slightly... nice. "Never!" He says. "Ugh, just get off!" I yell, as I shove him off of me as hard as I can.

I notice Nana shove Zane~Kun off of her. "What the hell is your problem? He was just trying to be nice!" I say, as I sprint toward the door. "Being "nice" never got me anywhere. Why should it get him anywhere?" Nana says. "Have you ever even tried being nice?!" I ask. "Of course, I have! Like the time I... The time I..." Nana can't seem to think of a time that she was nice. "Exactly!" I say. "This gives Zane~Kun an idea! We just need to go somewhere where Nana~Chan has the opportunity to do something nice." Zane~Kun says. "No way! I'm not going anywhere with-" Nana is interrupted by Zane~Kun gripping her arm. "Zane~Kun is afraid you don't have a choice, Nana~Chan!" Zane~Kun says, as he starts to drag her. "Let go of me! AGH!" Nana says, as she squirms, but it's no use. Zane~Kun's grip is too strong this time. I chuckle a bit. "What are you laughing about?" Nana asks. "Nothing." I say cheekily. Nana groans, as Zane~Kun continues to drag her.

Eventually, we end up at the park. "There is bound to be a good deed that can be done here!" Zane~Kun says. "I told you. I don't want to do this!" Nana says, continuing to struggle. "As Zane~Kun said... You. Don't. Have. A. Choice." Zane~Kun says, creepily. "You scare me sometimes, Zane~Kun..." I say. "Hm? What was that, Aaron~Kun?~" Zane~Kun asks. "Nothing!" I say, quickly. "Hm, well okay!~" Zane~Kun says. "Heh, scared of your own friend, Aaron?" Nana asks. "Do you even have any friends?" I ask. "I don't need 'em... I never have." Nana says. "Nana~Chan has never had a friend? No wonder Nana~Chan is so bitter!" Zane~Kun says. Then, Zane~Kun seems to have an idea. "Since Nana~Chan has never had a friend, Zane~Kun will be Nana~Chan's friend!" Zane~Kun says. "I just told you! I don't need any friends! I'm doing just fine on my own!" Nana says. "Nonsense! Everyone needs at least ONE friend!" Zane~Kun says. "Even so, why would I ever be friends with you?" Nana asks. "Because... If Nana~Chan isn't... Zane~Kun will drag her with him everywhere he goes, every day." Zane~Kun says. Nana groans. "FINE! I'LL BE YOUR STUPID FRIEND!" Nana says. "Now, can you let go of my arm?" Nana asks. "Not until Nana~Chan promises she won't do anything bad." Zane~Kun says. Nana groans. "I promise I won't do anything bad." She says reluctantly. "Good!" Zane~Kun says and lets go of her arm. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going back home." Nana says, before walking off. "Do you really think that worked Zane~Kun?" I ask. "Zane~Kun thinks Nana~Chan just needs time!" Zane~Kun says. "Whatever you say, Zane~Kun..." I say.
