The family was waiting until their guest would awake. They had all stepped back, so that Rin was the only one sitting close enough to him to even lay a finger on him. He shifted his head from one side to another, started to mumble a few words that everyone could understand as: "No... Noooo...!"

Finally he got up, as if waking from a bad dream. Once he had opened his eyes, he sighed of relief, until he relised he was somewhere he didn't know.

"You're ok, Sutokeru!" Rin assured him, as she layed her hand on his shoulder.

Sutokeru turned his head to look at her, and sounded relieved, in contrast to what he said to her: "I'm not gonna ask how you know my name."

Rin smiled as after he said that: "You just had a bad dream! Nothing to be worried about!"

"I wasn't dreaming." he corrected her, "Can't even remember the last time I had a dream. No, I just thought I was down there again!"

"Down where?" Rin asked.

"The Abyss!" Sutokeru answered.

Rin seemed to be taken aback at the sound of that. The Ozu family on the other hand had no idea what to understand under 'the Abyss'.

"A lot seemed to have happened to you since last time I saw you!" Rin remarked.

"That's not half of it, Lunagel!" Sutokeru assured her.

"Then tell! What else happened?"

Sutokeru sighed deeply, because he had no idea where to begin. When he finally figured it out he said: "Well, for one, my foster father got transferred to some company in Sydney. So we all had to move to Australia."

"So you lived in Australia your whole life?" Rin asked.

"Pretty much, yes!" Sutokeru confirmed.

"So that's why you spoke English earlier!" Tsubasa remarked.

Sutokeru looked into the direction that remark came from, then said: "I'm sorry, but who are you?"

Kai was about to answer, but Rin stopped him by answering herself: "They're the Ozu family! This is their house you're in!"

"Oh!" Sutokeru didn't seem to care much about that. But then he saw the jackets that five of them wore, and the symbols that they all bore. It made him relise something: "Wait a minute! They wouldn't be those magicians that...?"

"Yes." Rin's answer was as fast as it was short.

"Well that explains a lot!" Sutokeru stated.

"What does that mean?" Kai asked him.

"It means that a bunch of idiots can't just meet by chance!" Sutokeru answered, "You had to be a family!"

"Why you...!" there was no way to control the family's anger at that point, especially not of the sons. Kai, as well as Tsubasa and Makito, tried an all out attack to their guest. Sutokeru, however, quickly raised his magiphone, and used it to control Isamu, Hikaru, and Smoky too, to stop them from attacking.

"Hide behind other people! You can do that pretty well, can't you, you coward!" Kai remarked.

"Smoky? You too?" Makito couldn't believe that their housecat could fall under Sutokeru's control as well.

"Am I supposed to face all three of you by myself then?" Sutokeru replied to Kai's remark, "And are you not a coward if YOU attack one man along with two more?"

"Let them go!" Rin pleaded to him, "Please!"

Sutokeru didn't need to think twice before he replied: "I will if they cool off!"

It didn't seem like Rin had any problem with that, which surprised Urara, because as far as she could see it, Sutokeru had provoked her brothers to act the way they did. Hoping to find an answer to all of their questions, she asked: "Why do you hate us so much?"

Sutokeru smirked before he answered: "Your ancestors were fools! And it seemed to me that it got worse over the generations! I really wonder why my predecesors ever wanted to return to the lot of you!"

"Our ancestors?" Urara couldn't understand.

"You don't know?" this made Sutokeru chuckle even harder, "Damn! And you think of yourselves to be too good to have me on your side, and you even know any history!"

"Then why won't you tell us!" Tsubasa shouted, "And then review you thoughts on us!"

"Oh sure!" Sutokeru sounded sarcastic, though he meant every word he said: "I'm gonna have to adapt myself to you, but you won't change one bit yourself!"

"At least tell them what you know!" Rin advised him, "Help them understand!"

It was obvious that Sutokeru was thinking about it. When he made his decission, he made one sway with his magiphone, causing the three that he had under control to fall down, taking the ones they were holding with them.

"Fine!" he said, "Here's how it is!"
