Chapter 1

I looked at the dog sitting on the floor just starring at the wall waging her tail like she was happy. I looked over to Yuki and Kyo and began to panic.

"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO! We don't know the dogs name-" I gasped. "WHAT ABOUT SHIGURE? What are wwe going to do this is not good not good-" Kyo rolled his eyes then looked around the kitchen.

"Sheesh calm down." I gasped trying to catch my breath again. I looked back over at the dog and smiled, the black lab was licking a wall that was in front of her still wagging her tail happily. I giggled.

"I think she's hungry." I smiled as the dog scampered across the room to sit by Kyo at the kotatsu. Kyo looked to his left and came face to face with the dog. Before Kyo could do anything the dog leaned forward and licked his forehead. Kyo jumped back about ten feet landing and glaring at the black dog.

"WE HAVE TO GET RID OF THAT THING NOW!" he yelled. I smiled putting my hands to my face to try and stop myself from laughing. Kyo sat next to me across from the dog wiping his head with the back of his hands. I frowned and looked at Yuki, he had been very quiet since we had gotten home... He seemed kind of sad. Yuki was fingering something that was on his left wrist, I smiled when I saw that it was a pretty braided bracelet. Kyo must have noticed as well because he was glaring at Yuki, probably trying to figure out why he was so quiet.

"Hey, you stupid rat; what's that?" Yuki looked up from his arm to Kyo and then back down. Yuki blushed and ripped his arm of the table and hid it behind his back.

" Oh that? Uh it's nothing..." Kyo rolled his eyes and began mumbiling to himself. I smiled it was nice to be home but I was worried about Shigure... I wonder what he would be doing now.

I sat on my bed and sighed. This couldn't get any worse. Shigure smiled at my friends and me before looking down at the pile of books in front of him. Harper stood up and smiled hopefully.

"Why don't we just try and send him home like everyone else." I shrugged but nodded along with Arielle. I stood up and my friends and I faced Shigure who was standing in front of the books now.

"Shigure go home." I waited for Shigure to start disolving but he never did. I frowned, looking back at my friends.

"What happened he's not leaving." I nodded agreeing with Harper's obvious observation. Arielle sighed sitting back down on the floor.

"What are we going to do now?" I shrugged and sat down next to her.

Knock knock knock

I turned to the door smiling a little as Miles and Justin walked in. MIles stopped in the door way looking at Shigure.

"There's someone here." I rolled my eyes as Arielle smacked her head.

"No duh." She said. Miles smirked sitting down on my bed as Justin sat down on the ground next to Harper and Arielle. Justin smiled looking at Arielle.

"So what are you guys going to do?" Arielle frowned and punched Justin in the arm.

"Why do we hve to come up with all of the ideas? You could help to ya know." Justin smiled rubbing his arm.

"Hey I'm not the one with the magic book powers." Arielle rolled her eyes and smacked Justin in the back of the head.

"Doesn't mean you can't help." I smiled and tried to think of an idea to get Shigure out of here. Harper stood up and lunged for the pile of books near Shigure and began to rearrange them into a huge circle in the middle of the room. I smiled and stood up.

"Harper, what exactly are you doing?" Harper looked up at me, laughing at her forgetfulness.

"Oh sorry I forgot to explain. Well I thought that if we all hold hands around the books it would be a little more powerful and it may work better." I smiled nodding slowly.

"That could work." I said. Harper smiled as she put the last book in place. She stood up and grabbed Arielle's and my hand.

"Everyone hold hands." I nodded and took Shigure's left hand as Arielle took his right. I smiled looking back at Harper.

"What do we do now?" Harper smiled shrugging.

"I guess we just try telling him to go home." I shrugged it sounded easy enough.

"Shigure go home." Everyone waited for a minute, starring at Shigure waiting for something to happen.

"Guys it's not working-Woah!" I looked at the center of the circle of the books and saw a purple hole that seemed to go down forever. Miles and Justin jumped off the bed and ran over to the vortex to get a better look. Harper smiled a little.

"Just like I planned." I laughed looking back at her.

"So what should we do?" Harper shrugged so I looked at Arielle to see if she had any ideas.

"Why don't we just step into it?" she said helpfully. I frowned.

"Arielle I don't think stepping into a bottomless hole in the middle of my floor is a very good idea..." Arielle shrugged let go of Harper and Shigure's hand and stepped towards the black hole.

"Well I think it is." And with that Arielle disappeared into the black hole. I starred at Harper who shrugged and jumped in after her. I frowned and shook my head as Justin jumped in as well followed closely by Shigure. I looked up at Miles who shrugged.

"Are you gonna find out where they went or not?" I sighed but took a few steps forward and jumped in with Miles following close behind.
