Yuuko and Kuro came to the human world. Yuuko has a very long straight hair with ruby eyes and looks like a 15 year old girl. Kuro has a spiky black hair with brown eyes and he is a tall man and he looks like mid-20s man.

"At last we are here in human world.", Yuuko Chii smile.

"Indeed. So what will you going to do?", Kuro asks her.

"I need to take the test to get the chō cage.", Yuuko answer.

"Why you are going to get the chō cage?", Kuro asks her again.

"I need to get the chō cage because I need to collect four season of chōs.", Yuuko answers him back.

"Where do you get the four season of chōs?", Kuro asks her again.

"I will get them from four people who has strong powers who needs help.", Yuuko answers him back.

"Will you be able to sense the four people who has strong powers who needs help?", Kuro asks her again.

"Yes I can when the chō cage will glow.", Yuuko answers him back.

"Why do you need the four season of chōs?", Kuro asks her again.

"I need the four season of chōs so I can fulfill my wish.", Yuuko answers him.

"What is your wish?", Kuro asks her again.

"My wish is to meet someone who is very special and dear to me. So I will do my best, Kuro-san.", Yuuko answers him with a smile.

"Good. The test that you need to do to get the chō cage is to help other people.", Kuro points his index finger to Yuuko.

"I see. So should we search for the people who needs help, Kuro-san?", Yuuko grabs Kuro's hands.

So they walk to town and they saw a flower viewing or what people called Hanami. Yuuko is amaze by the beauty of the cherry blossoms and plum blossoms.

"Ah so it's spring here eh? Yuuko, I will buy something to eat so stay here in the bench and don't talk to strangers.", Kuro said.

"Okay.", Yuuko smile.

Suddenly, a three guys come near Yuuko.

"Hey, do you want to drink some tea with us?" one of the three guys asks her.

"Sure.", Yuuko smile.

When Kuro saw Yuuko goes with the three guys, Kuro uses the air to push those three guys away from Yuuko. Yuuko becomes surprise and she calls Kuro but the three guys cannot see him.

"Who are you talking to brat?!", one guy asks.

Then one of the guys pulls Yuuko's hair. Suddenly, a man who has black hair with glasses punches the guy who pulls her hair and he punches the other two guys.

"Are you alright?" the man with glasses asks.

"Yes, thank you so much.", Yuuko bows.

"Be careful, many guys are like them. Don't talk to strangers, okay? I will go now. See you around.", the man with glasses smile.

"Okay, bye and thanks.", Yuuko smile.

Suddenly, Yuuko saw Kuro who was very mad.

"Yuuko...", Kuro glares at her.

"Kuro-san, I'm so sorry.", Yuuko bows deeply.

"DID I TOLD YOU NOT TO TALK TO STRANGERS BEFORE RIGHT?!", Kuro mads at her.

"I'm sorry, Kuro-san.", Yuuko cried.

"ALSO YOU ARE THE ONE WHO SUPPOSE TO HELP TO THE OTHER PEOPLE BUT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO NEEDS HELP!", Kuro still mads at her.

"I'm sorry.", Yuuko cried.

"Geez! Now let's go. You still need to find someone who needs help.", Kuro sigh.

"Okay.", Yuuko said.

Then they saw an old woman who is searching for someone.

"Do you need help, Obaa-chan?", Yuuko asks.

"Yes. I need to find my grandson, he seems he lost somewhere.", Obaa-chan worries.

"If you would not mind, I can help you finding your grandson.", Yuuko smiles.

Then Obaa-chan describes her grandson. Her grandson has a black hair with brown eyes and was around 3'5'' tall.

"This is a good test Yuuko. If you find that old woman's grandson, you can have the chō cage.", Kuro smirks.

"Alright. I will accept.", Yuuko said.

Then, Yuuko starts searching for obaa-chan's grandson. Then Yuuko saw Obaa-chan's grandson hiding in the bush crying.

"So you are here. Your grandmother worries about you.", Yuuko hushes the child.

"I'm scared. I cannot see grandmother. I was lost.", the boy cried.

"I will sing to you then so you will not scared anymore, okay.", Yuuko smile.

"Flowers bloom in spring
Oh, the sky spreads in summer
They're engraved and sparkling
In my heart

Rain falls in the morning
Even on a day when I shut the window
The light overflowing to my chest
Is from above the clouds

Joy and sorrow
I hold everything close while I'm walking
They're things that firmly join
My hand
And your hand together

Autumn is at the waterside
Winter lurks at the treetop
There's a boundless kindness
Deep in the world

Every time when night comes
Let's offer a prayer
Let's quietly greet
The day to come tomorrow

Oh, a voice calling out from far, far away
Guides me
As if it smiles
As if it sings
The sound of wind echoes

Joy and sorrow
I hold everything close while I'm walking
They're things that firmly join
My hand
And your hand together...", Yuuko sings softly to the child.

The child stops crying. Then they walk to Obaa-chan and the grandson is very happy to see his grandmother. The grandmother thanked Yuuko and asks her name.

"Yuuko Chii. What is your name Obaa-chan?", Yuuko smiles.

"Kohane Doumeki. We need to go home now because it is pretty late. Thank you for helping finding my grandson.", Obaa-chan smile.

"Your welcome, Doumeki-san.", Yuuko smile.

"You can call me Kohane-san. See you around, Yuuko-chan.", Kohane smiled.

After finding Kohane's grandson, Yuuko and Kuro sits on the swing.

"Yuuko. Even though you do stupid this afternoon you past the test.", Kuro smile.

Then a bright light appears and the small chō cage appears.

"Wow! This is so pretty. So all I need to do is to gather the four seasons of chōs?", Yuuko asks.

"Yes and you only have one year to gather it. Now it is spring, you need to gather the spring chō before summer if not, you cannot fulfill your wish.", Kuro explains.

"I will do my best then to collect the spring chō.", Yuuko said determinedly.
