CHAPTER 1

-Pant Pant Pant-

"Yuzu run faster!"

The only sounds that could be heard was feet hitting the ground hard as 3 figures ran through the forest.

"I…..I, Mama, P…Papa" Yuzu spoke in between sobs as she continued to run next to her pink haired friend.

"Yuzu-chan, we are nearly there" It was the Pink haired girls mother that spoke next as they stopped, she pulled out a bright rainbow coloured stone from her pocket.

"Quickly Yuzu, I need a drop of your blood" She grabbed Yuzu's hand and made a small prick which made a drop of blood come out and land on the stone. It started to shake violently and shine bright.

The next thing Yuzu knew she was being pulled into a bright light then everything went black.

-GASP!-

Yuzu shot up and jumped to her feet, her breathing was uneven. She felt someone place their hand on her shoulder behind her, she immediately grabbed their wrist and swung them over her shoulder and to the ground.

"Ahhhh Yuzu-chan" The pink haired girl slowly sat up.

"ohhh Matsuri im so sorry, i didn't know it was you. How long was I out for?" Yuzu said as she quickly helped her shorter friend to her feet.

"Just over a day Yuzu-onee" Matsuri answered as she stood next to her friend.

Yuzu took in her surroundings, they were in someones house.

"Where are we?" Yuzu went straight to the glass sliding doors and stepped outside.

"Wow" She took in the sight and all the apartment buildings, the blue skies, even birds flying past.

Matsuri made her way next to Yuzu, Yuzu turned he head to look at her friend before she spoke again.

"Or should I say which realm are we in?"

Matsuri took in the sight as well, it was her and Yuzu's first time seeing all of this it was all new to them.

"Mum should be back soon and will explain everything" The pink haired girl gestured for her and her friend to go back inside and almost like clock work her mother arrived.

"'I'm home" The short older woman entered the apartment, she had long brown hair and the same deep blue eyes as her daughter.

"Aunty whats going on? the last thing i remember was….was…"

The older woman placed her hand on Yuzu's shoulder as she gestured for her to sit down, before she spoke.

"It's o.k Yuzu, you need to calm your mind, close your eyes"

Yuzu did as she was told, her and Matsuri had grown up together since their mothers had been best friends since they were children.

Even though they weren't related by blood Yuzu called Matsuri's mum Aunty and Matsuri did the same with Yuzu's parents.

"Now clear your mind and just breath"

Yuzu took in a few deep breaths, then images from what had happened started to flash before her eyes.

"MAMA!PAPA!"

ONE DAY EARLIER…

"And the winner is Princess Yuzuko!" The stadium roared with cheers as Yuzu took a bow, then in one leap she jumped from the ground up to the top of the stadium where her mum and dad were.

"Yuzu, you did great darling" Yuzu's father stood proud as he gave his daughter a hug.

"Your not injured are you bub?" Yuzu's mum started to check over her daughter.

Yuzu shook her head as she looked to both her parents before she spoke.

"Mama, Papa, i'm fine. Just a little hungry" The three started laughing before they made their way down to the man eating hall.

"Aunty Gaia, Matsuri! Did you see?" Yuzu spoke as she ran up to her aunty and pink haired daughter Matsuri.

"Yes darling you were amazing as always" Gaia roughed up Yuzu's hair as she started to talk with the blondes mother.

"Great work Yuzu-onee" Matsuri gave her friend a high five before they ran down the hall in a race.

"You win, again" Matsuri sulked as Yuzu stood tall with a wide grin on her face.

"Your uncle and cousin should be here any minute now Yuzu." Yuzu's dad spoke, he then gave his daughter a serious look as he continued to speak in a more stern tone.

"Could you please try to refrain from damaging the castle, and try to be nice to your cousin."

Yuzu turned to her father as she spoke "But Papa, he always starts it, he shouldn't start what he cant finish"

She sat in her chair as she took a mouthful of food. Yuzu's mum smiled at her daughter.

Even though she did come off as a hot head and a little immature sometimes. Yuzu was the top of her class academically and physically, she knew that if they needed her to, Yuzu could take over the throne tomorrow if she wanted. But Yuzu also had another side to her, a side of her that just screamed freedom, just to be a normal teenager.

She often caught Yuzu watching the other kids playing outside having fun while she was stuck either training or studying. Yuzu had a lot of friends but at the same time she knew that a lot of them were fake and only being friendly to Yuzu because she was the Princess of the entire Kingdom Rudo.

As they finished their meal screams could be heard coming from outside.

Yuzu's dad quickly ran out, Yuzu and her mum went to follow when her father was flung back through the doors and hit the wall.

"Papa!" She turned to see her uncle and cousin both with devilish smirks.

Her attention went back to her father when she heard him speak.

"B….Brother, why are you doing this?"

Yuzu could see jealously in her uncles eyes as he spoke.

"Hmph, you always got everything Brother, and what did I get?"

He moved at lightning speed and was now holding Yuzu's father up by the throat.

"You have a family" Yuzu's father spoke as he head butted his brother and pushed him back with super strength.

"Ahahahahahah Family? I want power" He wiped a bit of dirt from his face as he continued to speak.

"We are twins brother, but just because I was born 2 minutes after you I get looked down on" He then moved super fast next to Yuzu's mum and pulled her close "Maybe some loving will help me feel better"

-Crash-

"Keep your hands off my wife" Yuzu's dad started to glow golden as he sped next to his wife and knocked his brother into the wall, Yuzu knew that things were going to get serious.

More screams could be heard from the outside, Yuzu looked outside then back to the situation she was in.

"Ahhhhh" Within seconds there was over 100 soldiers surrounding them, Yuzu's dad quickly put up a barrier to protect her, Matsuri, Gaia and her mum. Her cousin came over with a sword and was pushing threw the barrier.

"Scared are we cuz?" The boy spoke as he had a devilish grin on his face.

Yuzu went to jump out side the barrier but her mother pulled her back. "Yuzu, no. leave this to your father"

Yuzu bit her bottom lip as she glared at her cousin and spoke.

"Kenzi, why are you doing this?" The tall boy didn't answer as he continued to push the sword through.

Just when the sword broke the barrier Yuzu felt herself get pushed to the side, as she looked up she saw Kenzi with his sword through her mums chest.

"Mama!" Yuzu started to glow golden as well.

"Yuzu no!" Ume looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes, her eyes then looked up at her childhood friend. Gaia nodded as tears were already falling from her eyes.

Gaia grabbed Yuzu by the arm as she spoke "We have to go now Yuzu"

Yuzu pulled her arm away as she yelled back

"No! I'm not leaving them, I can't!" Tears were falling uncontrollably as Yuzu looked at her mum.

"Ume!" Yuzu's father went to head towards then when he was held back by her uncle and all the soldiers were hitting him with their power beams, spears went flying through the air and stabbed Yuzu's dad all over his body and pinned him to the ground.

"Yuzu run" Yuzu looked down at her mother who was struggling to breathe, Kenzi pulled out his sword and pointed it towards Yuzu.

"Live my dear daughter" Yuzu's father spoke as he looked at her with pleading eyes.

"RUN!" Both mother and father yelled as they looked at their blonde daughter.

Gaia grabbed Yuzu by the wrist, she opened a portal and pulled the blonde and her pink haired daughter through.

They were just outside the kingdom. "We need to get to the enchanted forest if we want to get out of here alive" Gaia looked at the 2 shocked girls as she grabbed each of them by the hand and started to run.

-GASP-

Yuzu was breathing uneven the room was spinning.

"Deep breaths Yuzu, in and out" Yuzu focused on her aunty sitting in front of her.

The tears were falling she couldn't stop thinking of her parents.

"We have to go back, now" Yuzu looked at her aunty, but the answer she got made her anger boil over.

"Sorry Yuzu, but right now it is safer for us to stay in this realm for a little bit and-"

-BANG-

Yuzu slammed her fist on the table and it broke in half as she lost her temper.

"Safer!? what about mother and father!? we have to go back and save them"

Gaia gave Yuzu a stern look as she stared straight into those deep determined emeralds.

"Yuzu you know just as much as me that staying here is the smarter move, your mind is too clouded right now"

Yuzu went out to the verandah and leaped off in one go, far into the distance.

"Yuzu-onee!" Matsuri went to chase her friend but her mother held her back.

"Suri darling, lets give her some time and space, she just needs to process everything"

Matsuri stood their and looked into the distance that Yuzu had gone as she started to wander if her close friend was going to be o.k.

ONE HOUR LATER

Yuzu lay on a bed of flowers as she looked up at the clear blue sky.

"Thank you little guy" She lifted her hand up as the small bird flew away. One of her many gifts was that she could communicate with any living being. From a few random birds flying by and a cat that was stuck in a tree, Yuzu learnt that she was in a Realm with a planet called Earth. No one has powers here and there is not just one King or ruler on this planet but many different Leaders in each country.

Yuzu let out a sigh as she thought about what her aunty had said, she knew that she was right. Yuzu was one of the top strategist in her class and had helped her Father many times to settle wars and bring peace.

She sat up slowly, looking around and smelling the fresh air, this was her first time out of the Kingdom, although she had dreamed of leaving the Kingdom and going on an adventure she wished that the circumstances were different.

"Ohhhh come on Mei,…..Pleaseeeeee"

Yuzu looked up as she saw 2 girls waiting at one of the crossings in a school uniform.

They were pretty similar in height, one with auburn hair, hazel eyes and big boobs seemed to be bugging her friend to stop somewhere. The other girl who hadn't spoken a word, Yuzu could tell just from looking at her that she would be a fraction taller than herself as well.

She had long black silky hair, pale snow like skin and deep violet eyes. Unlike her friend that couldn't stop smiling at her, the taller girl seemed to keep a neutral expression.

'She's so beautiful' Yuzu was quickly brought out of her thoughts at the sound of a tire pop.

-BANG-

The truck driver had lost control and was heading straight towards the 2 girls.

'oh no, this looks bad'

Yuzu moved faster then any eye could see and was behind the girls in a second, she quickly grabbed them both under each arm and jumped to the side just in time.

-CRASH-

She got up slowly as she checked over the 2 girls.

"Are you 2 o.k?"

Yuzu locked eyes with the raven haired girl, who only seemed to manage to give Yuzu a small nod as she seemed to be in a little bit of shock.

Yuzu gently cupped the raven girls face as she had got a small scratch on her cheek.

"Ahh what just happened" The Auburn haired girl spoke as people started to gather around quickly. Since they didn't seem to have suffered any serious injuries Yuzu saw it as her opportunity to escape before she drew anymore attention to herself.

'I gotta get out of here'

She quickly ran off before anyone noticed.

"Are you hurt?" One man helped both girls to their feet. Mei tried to look through the crowd for those bright emerald eyes, but they were no where to be seen.

She then turned her attention to her Auburn haired friend as she spoke.

"Harumin are you ok?" Harumin checked over herself and let out a loud sigh as she answered her friend.

"Yeah I am" She looked over to the crossing, they were now on the opposite side.

She gave Mei a confused look as she continued to speak.

"Although how did we end up on this side of the road?"

Mei looked up at the beautiful clear skies 'She couldn't have? could she?'

Mei was brought out of her thoughts as Harumin grabbed her by the wrist and started to pull her away from the crowd.

"Thank you all for your concern, but we are perfectly fine and we are in a bit of a hurry, so bye"

"Harumin whats the hurry? stop pulling me" Mei pulled her hand back as she continued to walk next to her friend.

"Mei did you forget? We were meant to meet our mums straight after school. I cant believe I forgot, mums gonna kill me"

Mei quickened her pace as she realised her friend was right.

"Damn that was close" Yuzu spoke softly to herself as she sat on the edge of the tallest building in the city.

She looked back at her hand that had cupped the raven haired girls face "Her skin was so soft and her lips looked….."

"ahhhhhh what am I thinking!?" Yuzu slapped her hand on her forehead as she tried to get the images of Mei out of her head.

"Her name was Mei, wasn't it?"

Thoughts of her parents started to enter her mind and Yuzu knew that she would have to return to her Aunty and Matsuri eventually.

She sat upright, crossing her legs and clapping her hands together. She closed her eyes and started to breathe in slowly and out.

After an hour of meditating, Yuzu slowly opened her eyes, she had birds and insects all around her.

She had become one with nature and completely cleared her mind. As she stood up she knew exactly what she needed to do. She took in a deep breath and then did one giant leap into the air.

Yuzu finally made it home as she landed on the verandah.

"Yuzu-onee!" Matsuri hugged her friend, Yuzu looked over to the kitchen table that was already repaired. She bowed as she looked at her aunty.

"I'm really sorry for the way I acted aunty and-" Yuzu stopped talking as she felt her aunty place her hand on her shoulder.

As she looked up she was met with watery blue eyes.

"You dont need to apologise Yuzu-chan, you loved them very much" Gaia pulled Yuzu into a tight hug as she continued to talk.

"I loved them too" After a few moments Gaia pulled back and gestured for both girls to take a seat.

She had a serious look on her face as she looked at the 2 and started to speak.

"We will have to stay here for a little bit, we dont know how much of the kingdom was corrupted with traitors"

Yuzu gritted her teeth as the thought of people betraying her family was making her angry. Yuzu started to glow as her anger was raising.

"Yuzu you will need to control yourself, we cant use our powers here"

Yuzu took a few breaths and nodded as she waited for Gaia to continue.

Once Yuzu stopped glowing Gaia continued. "I only have 2 people in this realm that I know we can trust. The four of us were all friends since we were children back in our Realm. But when they were just your age Yuzu they decided to roam to this realm" Gaia had a sad smile on her face as she continued to talk.

"They both asked me and your mother to come but she was already engaged to your father and I wanted to stay at your mothers side in case she ever needed anything"

Gaia looked straight at Yuzu with her serious expression.

"But it is up to you Yuzu, You are the Heir to all the Realms, if you dont want to meet them you dont have to"

Yuzu held her auntys stare with her own serious face as she spoke.

"If you trust them Aunty then thats enough for me"

Gaia nodded as stood up and spoke some more.

"O.k I will get in touch with them and we will make a plan, until then. You 2 stay out of trouble and …"

Both girls answered in unison as they knew what the older woman was going to say

"No powers"

Gaia then pointed to the front door "So please use the door Yuzu-chan"

Yuzu gave a thumbs up as she watched her aunty pull out a phone and dial a number.

"So what should we do Yuzu-onee?" The pink haired girl had a devilish smile as she looked at her taller friend.

Yuzu shook her head before she spoke.

"I have a feeling that im gonna regret this but, what did you have in mind Suri?"

She gave Yuzu a wink before she disappeared, the front door quickly opened and Yuzu was out the door just as fast.

They were both moving at super speed, Yuzu had caught up to Matsuri in no time.

"You know im faster then you Suri, but I must say you get a A for effort"

Yuzu then turned around and started running backwards as she kept her eyes on her shorter friend.

"Show off!" Matsuri tried her best to catch up, just when she thought she was going to catch her friend, Yuzu gave her a salute, there was a golden flash and Yuzu was gone.

A smile was on the pink girls face as she came to a stop, she had no idea where she was but there was a lot of sand.

"We are in the desert" Yuzu quickly re-appeared behind Matsuri as she gave her signature peace sign and a wink.

"Its nice to see you smile Yuzu-onee" Matsuri gave her friend a genuine smile as she looked out at the ocean of sand.

Yuzu snapped her head around as she sensed something, she quickly grabbed Matsuri and jumped behind a large sand dune.

A portal opened and 2 soldiers came out, they looked left then right.

"Theres nothing but sand, they aren't here"

They turned and quickly went back into the portal.

"Do you think they were looking for us?" Matusri looked to her friend as she waited for an answer.

Yuzu's smile was gone and was replaced with a serious look again.

She looked down at Matsuri then back to where the portal was before she spoke.

"Theres no doubt that they were looking for us, we better let your mum know"

Yuzu picked her friend up bridal style, Matsuri blushed as she tried to get out of her friends hold.

"I can run on my own Yuzu!" Yuzu gave her a stern look before she spoke.

"Yes I know that, but we need to report this to aunty ASAP" Yuzu took off before Matsuri could say anything.

Within seconds they were back in the apartment, Gaia stood there with her arms crossed as she looked at the 2 girls.

"I thought i said no powers a-"

Matsuri cut her mum off as she explained what had just happened.

After explaining the entire situation out, Gaia placed her hand on her chin as she was in deep thought.

"We need to meet up with Azula and Suki immediately"

About 30 minutes later Yuzu, Matsuri and Gaia all stood infront of a large mansion.

"Are you sure this is the right place mum?" matsuri looked at her mum as she seemed too be thinking the same thing.

"This is the address she gave me a-"

-knock knock knock-

Both mother and daughter looked shocked as Yuzu just knocked, she turned to the 2 without any concern as she spoke.

"Well the only way to find out is if we knock, right?"

They didn't have to wait long as the door opened and revealed 2 women, a tall woman with jet black hair and soft brown eyes, the other woman was a fraction shorter then the blacked haired one, she had short dark brown hair and hazel eyes.

Yuzu couldn't help but feel as if she knew these woman from somewhere. They both look familiar to her but she couldn't quite pin point it.

Both womens eyes widened as they saw Gaia, they spoke in sync as they looked at their friend.

"Gaia, how long has it been?" Gaia hugged both woman tightly as she spoke.

"Just over 20 years if im correct?"

As they pulled away Gaia turned to the 2 young girls and introduced them to her childhood friends.

"Yuzu, Matsuri this is-"

The taller woman butted in before her friend could finish.

"Azula Aihara, its wonderful to meet you, your highness"

Azula bowed respectfully.

The other woman quickly bowed as well as she spoke.

"And I'm Suki Taniguchi, it is an honour your highness"

Yuzu quickly waved her hands infront of herself as she spoke.

"Please,please, there is no need to be so formal, it kind of makes me uncomfortable."

The 2 women looked at each other then to Gaia who simply nodded.

"You look like your mother and father" Suki spoke in a soft tone as she tried to hold back the tears.

"Lets take this inside shall we?" Azula entered the mansion with such grace.

Everyone followed the taller lady into the lounge room.

"This place is huge, dont you have maids?" Gaia elbowed her daughter for being insensitive but at the same time Gaia did find it a little odd that there was no house keepers around.

Azula took a seat as spoke "I sent all the staff home for the day, I wanted to make sure that our conversation was private"

"Thank you for your consideration" All women looked at the blonde who had her fathers blonde hair and mothers bright green eyes.

"I'm sorry that we had to meet under these circumstances" Suki poured everyone some tea as she spoke.

-Tap-

Everyones head turn towards the stairs as they heard something hit the ground.

"I thought you said we are alone?" Gaia looked to her friend who looked just as confused as her right now.

"Yes, we even sent our daughters away to ensure complete privacy"

Azula quickly stood up and started to make her way up the stairs, as she reached the top her eyes widened and she let out a sigh….

TWO HOURS EARLIER….

"Mei slow down" Harumin was running out of breath as they reached the top of the stairs.

"Quickly, dust yourself off Harumi" Mei helped her friend tidy herself up before she opened the door.

"We are home" They spoke in sync as they made their way around the room and to the kitchen where their mothers were.

"Mei, Harumin how was school?" Suki spoke first, Mei looked over to her mother who seemed to be on a serious phone call.

After she hung up Azula made her way to the young girls before she spoke.

"I'm sorry girls but something rather important has come up and we will have to reschedule for tomorrow, o.k?"

Harumin had a wide smile as she looked to her friend, but Mei wasn't convinced.

Both of their mothers were always strict on them to go to their self defence classes and after school studying, this was the first time ever that they cancelled.

"Also we will need the house to ourselves for a while, so why dont you 2 go shopping or head over to Haumin's house" Azula looked her purple eyed daughter straight in the eyes as she spoke.

on the outside she was trying to keep herself composed, but on the inside she was praying that Mei wouldn't ask any questions.

Mei looked to her mother then to her aunty before she nodded slowly. After a stare down for a few minutes, Harumin was the one to break the silence.

"O.k, lets go shopping Mei! We will have to stop at my house so I can get changed"

Harumin grabbed Meis hand and led her upstairs to change her clothes.

As soon as she closed the bedroom door Harumin spoke.

"Are you thinking what im thinking?" Mei looked at her friend. Even though they were completely different in personality and with their likes and dislikes. Harumin was very intelligent and extremely observant.

"They are hiding something" Mei finally spoke which Harumin just nodded.

The 2 said goodbye to their mothers and walked out the front door. After making sure that their mums were not watching anymore, they quickly ran around to the side that Meis room was on and climbed back up the side using the rope they had thrown down earlier.

"It must be good if they cancelled both of our after school classes" Harumin looked at Mei, she had a worried look on her face.

Harumin tried to cheer her friend up as she gave her a re-assuring smile

-knock knock knock-

Both girls eyes widened as they heard someone knocking on the front door.

They couldn't see or hear anything coming from the front door. They both waited patiently as they saw their mums leading their guests into the lounge room.

Meis eyes widened as she saw the blonde from earlier walk into the room

"Mei?" Harumin noticed that her friend seemed to be lost in some kind of trance as she just kept her eyes on the blonde.

"Mei" Harumin shook her friend which surprised her a little and she knocked an ornament off the side table.

"Shit" They both curse under their breath as they saw everyone looking in their direction.

BACK TO THE PRESENT….

"Mei, Harumin, what are you 2 doing here?" Azula scolded the 2 girls. As they stood up and headed towards everyone else Yuzu recognised the girls straight away.

"Oh no" Both Matsuri and Gaia looked at Yuzu who seemed to be in distress.

"Whats wrong Yuzu?" Gaia lent down as she spoke.

Yuzu quickly explained how she saved the 2 earlier.

Gaia placed her hand on Yuzu's before she spoke.

"It's o.k, dont worry"

Azula made her way downstairs, she looked directly at Yuzu as she gave an apologetic smile before she bowed "I'm sorry, it seems that our daughters dont like to use their ears"

Suki stood up and also bowed. Mei and Harumin both gave their mothers confused looks, they were acting like they were in front of the queen or something.

Gaia quickly stood up as she spoke.

"No need to apologise, Im Gaia, this is my daughter Matsuri and my niece Yuzuko"

'So her name is Yuzuko' Mei was brought out of her thoughts as she felt her mum nudge her.

Her and Harumin bowed as they introduced themselves.

"I'm Mei Aihara"

"And Im Harumin Taniguchi, but please call me Harumi"

"Harumin dont address-" Yuzu quickly cut Suki off as she spoke.

"Its very nice to meet you both, please call me Yuzu"

Yuzu looked at all three woman, Azula quickly picked up on what Yuzu wanted before she started to speak.

"So we can expect to see you 2 tomorrow at the Academy?"

Matsuri seemed to be the only one lost right now as Yuzu and Gaia simply nodded.

Yuzu kept stealing side glances of Mei while the older woman were talking, Mei on the other hand was doing the exact same thing.

They all sat down and started to talk about how they grew up together.

"So where is your mum Yuzu?" Harumin asked as the three woman kept saying there was 4 of them.

Gaia placed her hand on Yuzu's, she went to speak but Yuzu spoke up first.

"Her and my father recently passed away"

The atmosphere quickly changed and everyone was trying to think of something, anything to change the mood.

Mei noticed Yuzu clenching her fist's. She couldn't explain it but something about the blonde was captivating to her, she couldn't take her eyes off her.

"We should get going, I dont want these 2 to be late on their first day"

The mothers organised for the 4 girls to all walk together to and from school. After saying their goodbyes Azula closed the door and let out a sigh.

"I really like that chick, I think she's cool" Harumin spoke as she went to grab a cup.

"Harumin" Suki spoke soft, but as soon as her eyes met het daughters she gave her a serious look before she spoke again.

"That girl is very important, please look after her"

"Is there something wrong with her mother?" Mei was the next to speak. Azula looked deep into those curious purple eyes.

Her and Suki had decided to not let their daughters know of the other realms, they didn't let their husbands know either. They wanted their daughters to have a normal upbringing.

Both Mei and Harumin never showed any signs of powers or magic as well which just made it easier for the mothers to hide the other side of the realms from them.

Azula let out a small sigh before she answered her raven haired daughter.

"No nothing is wrong with her dear. She is just going through a tough time right now"

Mei nodded as her and Harumin made their way back upstairs to her room.

Back at the apartment Matsuri was nagging her mum since they had left the mansion.

"Why do we have to go to school here mum?"

Gaia gave her daughter a glare, she went to speak but it was the blonde that answered.

"Suri, this will be good, we can blend in and maybe even find out some information"

Matsuri looked at her friend and nodded in defeat as she laid down on the couch.

"Lucky you have been put up a few grades so you will be in the same class as Yuzu"

Gaia gave her daughter a smile as she waited for her to return it but instead got a eye roll.

After talking some more and making sure it was completely clear that no powers are to be used under any circumstances, all 3 went to bed.

Yuzu couldn't sleep at all, images of her parents kept popping into her mind, then Mei. The raven haired beauty seemed to have caught her attention and she couldn't explain it but she felt drawn to the taller girl.

The sun slowly started to rise 'Well guess I should just get up now' Yuzu thought as she slowly got out of bed and made her way to the kitchen.

"Yuzu, here is your uniform" Gaia handed Yuzu her uniform, she screwed her face up as she looked at it.

"Really aunty, we have to wear these?" Gaia gave Yuzu a stern look before she started to place breakfast on the table.

Yuzu went to her room and came out seconds later with a more modified version of the uniform.

"Yuzu, you will bring unwanted attention to yourself if you dont wear the proper uniform.

Yuzu turned to her aunty and gave a smile "Sorry, but I refuse to wear something like that, i wont look cute at all, you did say to try and fit in, im just being a usual teenage girl"

Gaia went to scold Yuzu some more, but looking at her smile made her hold her tongue and just smile back in return.

After breakfast the 3 left, Yuzu and Gaia were going to meet with Suki and Azula while Matsuri went to make sure the 2 daughters were on their way to school.

"Wheres Yuzucchi?" Matsuri looked at Harumi with a confused look before she spoke.

"If you mean Yuzu-onee, she had something to do but she wont be too long" The three walked in an awkward silence until Harumi broke it.

"So you and Yuzucchi have known each other for a while?"

Matsuri couldn't stop a smile from forming on her lips at the sound of Yuzu's nickname

'Shes never had a nickname before, well apart from me. I wander what she will say'

"Yeah our whole lives, we were brought up together" Matsuri quickly looked at Mei who hadn't said a word since they greeted each other. She went to say something when Harumi quickly cut her off.

"And we are here" She opened her arms to gesture just how big the school was.

Matsuri looked at the building, yes it was big, but the schools back home were 10 times bigger.

Mei noticed how unaffected Matsuri seemed to be about the Academy and it only made her wonder just where exactly were these 2 from?

Harumi grabbed Matsuris timetable, she was shocked after she read the schedule.

"Wow you must be pretty good, you have been put up 2 grades, your in our class" Mei glanced over at the timetable to ensure that her friend was correct. She quickly looked Matsuri up and down before she said her goodbye and headed up the stairs to a short girl already waiting for her.

"Where is she going?" Matsuri questioned.

"Well Mei is the Student Council President here and that girl up there is her Vice President Himeko Momokino"

Matsuri just nodded as she followed Harumi to their class.

Matsuri watched the clock as if it was a time bomb waiting to go off. The first bell had just gone off 'Yuzu-onee dont be late on your first day'

Just the second bell went to ring Yuzu came bursting through the door.

"Made it!" Yuzu threw her fist in the air as she congratulated herself.

She quickly felt a blush of embarrassment come over her face as she saw everyone looking at her, but there was one pair of eyes she felt on her the most and they were those deep violets.

"Please take a seat Miss Okogi" The teacher pointed towards a seat in the middle of Harumi and Matsuri, Harumi was in front of her and Matsuri was behind.

She just took her seat when she saw Mei raise her hand.

"Excuse me Sensei may I please have a word with Okogi-san?"

The teacher nodded as Mei stood up and headed for the door, Yuzu locked eyes with Mei, Mei held the door open as she waited for the blonde to come to her.

Just when the door was closed and they were in the hallway Yuzu was pushed back against the wall with Mei's face only inches away from her own.

The tension was suffocating, she went to speak but Mei spoke first.

"You were the one that saved us Yesterday weren't you?"

Yuzu broke eye contact as she looked to her side before she spoke.

"Yeah I guess so"

Mei raised an eyebrow as she spoke again "How did you get us across to the other side of the road so fast?"
