Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Mai-Otome, or Mai-HiME, blah blah blah, this is fanfic about Mai-Otome, with maybe some references from Mai-HiME. For all of you didn't know, hime, means princess, or lady, otome means maiden.

This is based about a couple years after Mai-Otome (Zwei), where Nina is also Mashiro's Otome. Oh and Erstin's still alive. Without further ado, Arika's *normal* day.


"Uhn…."

*knock**knock*

"Meh…five more minutes…"

*Creak*…

"MEOW!!!"

"Wah?!!"

"Arika-sama, you have a gue-" said Aoi.

"Oomph! Ehh??? Mikoto what's wrong with you?"

"Arika! Wake up! Nina is here!" said Mashiro as she threw a pillow in her face.

"AAH!"

PHOOMPH…

"Ow… Okay, okay I'm up…Who is it again?"

"Nina!" replied Mashiro with a smile.

"Ah, geez just Nin- NINA?"

"Yep!"

"AAAAH! She's going to kill me if I'm late…"

"Eh? Late for what?" asked Mashiro as Aoi-san and the other maids helped Mashiro and Arika get dressed.

"We were going to get together for a sundae!"

"Cool! Can I come along?"

"You can't Mashiro-sama, you have to finish your paper work!" said Aoi-san.

"Can't I do that later?"

"No!"

*Humph!* "I'll sneak along with you," she whispered to Arika.

Arika only giggled.

As soon as they were ready, they got some toast that Mashiro told Mikoto to steal from the chef and went outside.

Almost immediately, there was three short whistle blasts from the castle.

"Oh no, the Mashiro alarm…"

"Darn, they figured out I left again. Arika! Fly me away!"

"Mashiro-chan! You can't have me use my powers for that kind of stuff! Besides, what about Nina?"

"Fine…But please hurry!" Mashiro said as she put on her disguise.

"Yes, my Master!" Arika replied energetically.

"Hm?"

"What is it?" asked Mashiro.

All of a sudden, Arika had a mischievous look on her face.

"Nina is right over there..." she grinned evilly.

Arika snuck up to Nina and poked her in her weak spot.

"Ahh!"

Nina went into the now-country-wide-known-pose, right in the middle of the castle courtyard, were all the attendants were taking there morning break.

Nina turned around slowly, glaring at Arika, who was rolling on the ground laughing hysterically now, with Mashiro and Mikoto giving Nina the look saying "I had nothing to do with this".

"A-RI-KA!" She looked at Arika with a glare and started the famous Nina punch.

Mashiro stopped her saying, "Stop right there, if either of you get hurt, I do too. So no fighting!"

"Not even tournament fighting?" asked Arika.

"NO! NEVER AGAIN! Do you remember what happened last time?"

(FLASHBACK)

Ready…GO!

Arika and Nina jumped of the towers and started to fight,

"Bolt from the Blue, Release...III…II…I…0"

"Dash Cold Water Spout….GO!"

Arika and Nina's attacks both collided and both are sent smashing in to the wall.

"This is like a voodoo match!" as Mashiro went flying into a net as a precaution.

At the end of the battle, Mashiro Blan de Windbloom, had sustained 27 bruises, a broken arm, a missing tooth, and a dislocated shoulder to finish it off.

(FLASHBACK END)

"It took me three months to recover!"

Both Arika and Nina smiled.

"Anyhow… WHY WERE YOU LATE?"

"Geez, Nina…you know I'm not a morning person." came the meek reply from Arika.

"Whatever, lets get going before they catch Mashiro-chan."

"Okay!"

"Can we go to Garderobe first? I want to see Erstin…"

"Fine… By that look I'm guessing you want to go in THAT way?"

"Yep!"

"Fine…"

After sneaking through several alleys, they encountered their first problem.

"Eh youze pwetie litl gurlz, wanna hav sum funnnn?"

"YAH!"

"Mashiro-chan, some drunkards, just go sit over there will you? I'll ask for the certification if I need too," said Arika.

"Ok! Mikoto!"

*Meow* Mikoto jumped onto Mashiro.

"Leave us alone you drunks," said Nina.

"Ahh, noww whyyy wud weh douz zats?"

"Go away. NOW."

"Ooohh, a forzefulll oneee, I liikke zat…"

"THAT'S IT!"

"Nina-chan, don't be so harsh…"

Nina grumbled "Fine, so, what are we doing this time?"

"Eh, how about number 7? That worked pretty well last time…"

"Well there's three of them, 1 drunkard, and two sane ones. So I guess that would work but…"

"Hey! Pay attention to us!"

"Ok then… we'll do number 7 on the drunkard and then we'll overkill the other ones."

"Sure. They deserve it."

"Gokigenyou! Spiral Kick!"

SMACK!

"Aghhhhhhhhhhhhh…"

The drunkard flew into a wall.

"Why you little. Think you're so good eh? Get'em!"

The two charged towards them,

"Mashiro-san!"

"Okay!" said Mashiro.

She kissed both of their earrings and went back to playing with Mikoto.

"MATERIALIZE!"

They both changed into their robes and almost lazily, Mashiro said "Arika, use your Azure Sky…"

"Yes! Azure Sky! Materialize Zwei!"

There was a flash and Arika changed into a different Robe.

"Eh??? Otomes, get out of here!"

"That's Queen Mashiro! Isn't she supposed to be in the castle?"

"Not so fast the both of you, you made me mad, and that's not very nice…" snarled Nina.

"Bolt from the Blue, Release...III…II…I…0"

"Dash Cold Water Spout….GO!"

There was a huge explosion and the two flew off and disappeared.

"Arika, Nina! Nice!"

Arika smiled and Nina sighed and headed towards Garderobe.

"Why can't I have a single normal day with Arika?" thought Nina.

"Hey, Haruka-chan, can you do a favor for me?" said Yukino with her hands folded on her desk.

"Sure, what is it?" replied Haruka.

"Can you get these two off my table?"

"Sure."

Haruka picked up the two unconscious bodies that were lying on Yukino's desk that came from no where and crashed through the window.

"Arika and Nina are at it again," Haruka muttered as she threw the bodies back towards the general direction of Windbloom.
