Rima was walking home when it happened. It was the second last day of middle school, she felt happy and had good reason to. Her parents were in counselling now and they were fighting less, and when they did it only lasted for an hour before her father would get her mother flowers to apologise.

Ikuto had come back and he was spending more and more time with Amu, who was still in denial about having any feeling for him other than friendship.

Kukai and Utau were going out, Tadase had finally gotten over Amu and was going out with a girl who had a queen Shugo Chara.

Rima was now good friends with Nagihiko, though she still got jealous when he hung out with Amu. So whenever that happened she would ask him how Nadeshiko was doing and if she was coming back soon or when her next visit would be, making him uncomfortable.

"Rima, Rima Look," Her Chara KusuKusu said, pointing towards something. Rima turned and gasped in surprise. It was a poster of her favourite gag Manga. It said that it was going to become a short movie and it was coming out in a week.

"Rima, Can we go? Can we?" KusuKusu begged.

"Of course, maybe Amu would want to come," Rima exclaimed, her eyes sparkling. or maybe Nagihiko. she shook the thought away. No, he was only her friend and nothing more. Well, a friend and a cross dresser. She giggled at the thought.

"If it isn't Mashiro-San," a voice sneered.

Rima tuned and saw a girl she knew from school. She had long, straight black hair in two pigtails on either side of her head. She had ice blue eyes that were full of hate and disgust. Behind her were three of her friends. One had short brown hair and eyes, one had red hair and green eyes, the last had bleached blond hair and weird grey eyes. They all wore the same uniform as Rima.

"What do you want Hanau-San?" Rima asked emotionlessly, her happiness from earlier gone.

"You think your so damn cute and innocent, and that you can have every guy in the school, well, I've just had it with your attitude," The girl snapped.

Rima looked at her, not saying anything at first. Hanau Ruka didn't care before about the guys liking Rima. Especially when they started to back off when they found out she like Comedy.

Then she remembered something.

"Are you sure your just not jealous that Nagihiko rejected you?" Rima asked her.

Ruka froze.

"That's it, isn't it? He rejected you 'Cause he said he liked someone else," Rima remembered when it happened. She also felt upset when she found out that Nagihiko liked someone.

Ruka took a step towards Rima, her eyes like blue fire. "learn some respect Mashiro Rima, you never know when someone might kidnap you for being so rude," she laughed when she saw Rima go pale. It's been almost four years since her kidnapping, and it was just a few hours, but she still got terrified at the thought of it happening again.

"How the hell did you know about that?" She whispered.

"Oh, I have my ways," Ruka sneered. "So stay away from Nagihiko-Sama, Got it,"

Rima instantly felt angry. She wasn't going to let this girl intimidate her!

"No I won't, he's my friend, why should I stay away from him just because you told me too!" Rima said/yelled. Then she felt something hard hit the back of her head and everything went black.
