"Risa-san, may I speak with you for a moment?" Satoshi asked, walked up to her after school. The younger Harada sister was among her friends from Azumano Middle and High School. Risa spun around and pointed at herself.
"Me?" She said, wide-eyed. Her friends began to whisper things to each other like 'Satoshi's gonna ask Risa out' and stuff. Satoshi and Risa walked away from the group to a street across a café, where other students from their school were hanging out.
"Satoshi-kun…what is it exactly that you need?" She asked as Satoshi slowed down. People's heads began to turn. Female ones to be exact.
"I don't exactly need you…" Satoshi replied. Risa stepped back and gave him a weak glare. That glare of hers didn't seem to affect him.
"If you don't need me, why are you talking to me in front of everyone!" She paused, "Your fans are going to get me!"
He looked at her with his cold and emotionless blue eyes that should have frightened her, but didn't. Risa felt a little uneasy as she spoke again. " What is it, then?"
"I've looked through the whole school…And you have the most feminine appearance. I'd like to use you for a research project. By the way, you know the public is required to help in criminal investigations, don't you?" He answered.
Risa blanked out at first, before she grasped the concept of what he was saying. 'Hmmm….a feminine "appearance" does that mean I'm not really feminine? That's a rude thing to say!' She thought, getting a little angry at him.
She closed her eyes and brushed some of her hair off to the side. "So…you're saying that for the sake of research, you want a date? I'm sorry, but I don't have time for-" She cut herself off.
Satoshi ran his fingers through his blue hair. One of the girls behind him couldn't help but stare at him as her friend was telling her not to. Risa, then saw two other girls from a different school stare at him. She noticed he was getting a lot of attention.
She began to think to herself. Satoshi was pretty cute. But she never glanced at guys who wore glasses like Satoshi. Now, that she thought about it, he could be. Then, Risa asked him to take off his glasses.
"Why? Nothing special happens when I take them off." He said.
"I just want to check something." Risa responded. Satoshi took off his glasses and something happened. He dropped his glasses and felt a quick pain within his body.
"Satoshi-kun, are you all right?" Risa asked, picking up his eyeglasses. Satoshi leaned his head against the glass window of the shop they were in front of.
"It's nothing." He said, trying not to show that he was strained. He knew that he was finally there, going to surface pretty soon.
"I'm sorry. I didn't realize that your eyesight was that bad." Risa apologized. Satoshi turned his head to his left side and looked at her. "Huh? It's not that."
"I don't think they're broken. Here." Risa said, giving him back his glasses, "Well, I've got a lot of stuff to do. I'll see you tomorrow."
The younger Harada twin waved goodbye and ran ahead. Satoshi clutched his glasses and watched her go. " 'See you tomorrow' she says."
He spun around and walked away. The Supreme Commander of the Police Force chasing Phantom Dark had no clue that he was being watched carefully. He was being watched by two girls from the café. They smirked as soon as Satoshi was out of sight.
"That's him. I can sense it. The power of his Hikari DNA." The girl with the shoulder-length blue hair said. She wore the school uniform of Azumano Middle and High School like the girl with long, violet-colored hair.
"I can see that too, Seira. The girl he was talking to was Risa Harada-sempai (1), younger twin of Riku Harada-sempai. Both are the granddaughters of Rika Harada, the lover of Phantom Dark." The girl across from the one with blue hair.
Seira looked back at the table. Her friend was placing cards face-down. Seira already knew what she had to do. Her light blue eyes stared at the cards. She knew her friend was an expert at card-reading and wanted to teach someone.
"Chikage-san, can't we do this later?" Seira asked her friend. Chikage shook her head and placed her hand over all the cards. Her ruby eyes sparkled with a bit of power and Seira felt a shiver go down her spine. Chikage was trying to get Seira to use her untapped supernatural powers.
"No, Seira-chan. We can't. You have to awaken your power's potential before you meet him face-to-face. You have to at least do one card-reading on Satoshi Hiwatari and Risa Harada." Chikage snapped. Seira glared at her best friend. Chikage sighed and slapped her forehead.
Seira cocked an eyebrow and shook her head. She closed her eyes and muttered the names 'Satoshi Hiwatari' and 'Risa Harada'. She pointed at three cards. Seira chose the three going across on the third row, in the middle. Chikage picked up those three cards with her left hand and looked at them. The expert card-reader gasped.
"What is it, Chi?" Seira asked, opening her eyes. Chikage gave her best friend a 'look-for-yourself' look as she handed Seira the cards. The blue-haired girl stared at the three cards. The first one was the one with two children, standing back-to-back. Those children looked similar. The second was the one with two winged figures, an angel and the angel's shadow. The last card was a heart with an arrow.
"The two children standing back to back and look similar means…one has siblings. Actually, both of siblings. The Winged Angel and the Winged Angel's Shadow means has another self, an alter-ego. That was probably meant for Satoshi. After all, he is a Hikari. The last card, the heart with the arrow means…cupid shot an arrow through their hearts, making them fall in love." Seira said, thinking 'why did the Hikari make these cards?'
Chikage looked out the café's window and took a slip of her hot chocolate. Seira put the cards away into her school bag and took a bite of her cake. She hung her head as she felt her best friend's gaze back on her. Chikage smiled. That smile made Seira feel more uneasy about meeting him the next day.
"Are you ready to met Hiwatari-san tomorrow at school?" Chikage asked. Seira shook her head as she took the last bite from her cake. The blue-haired girl took a slip of her own hot cocoa as her friend sighed.
Seira didn't think she was ready to meet him. After all, he might not even believe her. He lived alone for the past fourteen-years of his life like her. But unlike her, Seira knew that Satoshi had never known that her had one close family relative still alive.
"Are you ready to go, Seira Midori..errr…Hikari-san?" Chikage suddenly asked, pulling her best friend out of her world of thoughts. Seira looked up and nodded.
Satoshi's only living relative was her. She, the thirteen-year-old girl known as Seira Midori for her entire life was the last Hikari other than Satoshi alive. She knew this. He didn't.
If this chapter has left you wondering about some stuff, some of that might be answered in the next chapter. Sorry if it sounds sucky. Seira, Chikage (Chi) and another OC that'll show up play a role in most of the plot.
(1) Sempai means upperclassmen people in school. Like if you an eighth grader, you'd add that honorific to a ninth grader or anyone above that grade.
