Knock.

Knock.

"Hello? Oh hi! Please come in!"

"I'm just here to deliver your letter ma'm" I replied. I was tired, wet and bleeding. Do you think I wanted to go in? HELL YES! But that's not part of the job, now is it? My dingo, Bandit-the-ferret, rubbed against my cheek, asking for us to go in. I patted his little head and sighed.

"Oh please do come in! Lag, Niche! Please heat up some tea!" The wheel-chaired girl yelled back into her house.

"Okay!" A male voice answered. She gestured me in and I complied sighing. The house was normal, more like a cute, petite cottage though. 'It's nice' I thought, smiling a bit. Bandit worriedly licked my cheek that was slowly being covered in blood from the gash in my head. I patted his head again, telling him to calm down.

"Please sit down! My name is-"

"Sylvette Seude. I know. I'm the one with the letter, right?" I said smirking. She blushed, embarrassed. 'I'm surprised she lives alone here.....oh yeah those people making tea. But she can't be anymore than my age. I mean, I'm 12 and all....'

"Here's the tea! Oh! A letter bee?" An albino boy said, walking the room. I gazed at him, slowly losing consciousness, but remembering something.

"Lag Seeing! LAG SEEING!!!?!?" I yelled, standing up and shaking him.

"Y-yes?" He said in between shakes. His dingo, I presume, threatened me with golden swords. I let go of Lag and turned to her.

"It's okay! I-" I started losing balance and held onto the chair, before sitting in it.

"I KNOW! I know!!!!!!!" I said, going in and out of darkness. Blood oozed from my head and I thought I heard Sylvette yell. Lag kept staring at me. Willing me to finish my sentence. I pulled his face so my mouth was near his ear.

"I-I know Gauche!!!!" I whispered, before coughing up blood and pulling back. He froze in his spot and I looked at the tea.

"That smells like lovely tea, but a gaichuu.... bit my h-head," I said, dizzy in my seat. I felt the blood dripping down my face again and I fell off the chair, darkness surrounding me...


"I think she's waking up!" A girl said. I groaned and sat up. I looked around and saw I was in a bed. Lag's dingo was curled up into a ball at my side.

"What's your name?" Sylvette asked.

"Kirei. Yes I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS!!" I yelled at them. Lag and Slevette both blushed at the name. (A/N: 'Kirei' means beautiful in Japanese) *Poor girl!*

I petted Lag's Dingo's head, then started panicking about my own.

"Bandit? Where's Bandit???" I asked, looking around. Lag and Slevette were sitting in chairs next to the bed and Bandit stirred in my lap.

"Oh..."

"You know Gauche????" Lag asked me, getting all up in my grill. I growled and pushed him back.

"Know him? I'm his daughter!" I shouted, frustrated at him. Slevette and Lag exchanged shocked looks.

"EHHHHHHHHHHHH?" Lag yelped. His dingo shot up and in defensive position. I sighed. 'These people don't catch on very fast. I mean, I look like him! Don't I???? Long curly white hair???? Except my blue eyes were from mom....'

"WHERE IS HE???" Lag asked anxiously. I put my hand on my waist.

"Where's my mail bag twirp?" I asked him. He sighed and handed it to me. I searched through it and pulled out the letter. I got up from the bed and Bandit assumed his position on my shoulder. Lag went red and fainted. I furrowed my brows in question.

"What?" I looked down, only to see me in my bra and underwear. I covered myself quickly.

"WHERE IN HELL ARE MY CLOTHES????"

"They were covered in blood so I washed them....."

"GOD DAMN!!!!"


"He's waking up! Oh Lag! Are you alright?"

"LIKE HELL I CARE IF HE'S AWAKE!!! LITTLE PERV!!!!!"

"He is not!"

"Is too!"

"IS not!"

"IS TOO!"

"What's wrong.." A tired Lag asked. I frowned, but was happy I had my uniform on.

"What's wrong is that you shouldn't see that stuff kid!" I shouted, furrowing my brow and blushing. I drank more of Sylvette's oh-so wonderful soup and grimaced at Lag.

"But I'm twelve....like you!" He said. I sighed.

"Here's your letter from Gauche!" I said, handing the letter to Slevette. She grabbed it and opened it hastily. She read it quickly and then read it again. She then handed it to Lag and he read it as well.

"It just says....that he's okay and he wishes us all well, especially me and Slevette," Lag said, sounding a bit disappointed. I frowned and searched my bag again. Once getting the right piece of paper out, I handed it to Lag and looked away in embarrassment.

"H-Here! It's a map!" I choked out. I'm just not good with helping people......

"A MAP TO GAUCHE?!?!" He yelled, grabbing it. His smile was so bright and tears were in his eyes.

"A....ARIGATO!!!!!!!!" He cried, tackling me to the ground and hugging the guts out of me. I tried pushing him off when someone walked in the room. I didn't look up to see who it was, but I yelled,

"PLEASE IN THE NAME OF THE LORD, COULD SOMEONE GET THIS KID OFFA ME???!"

"K-Kirei????! IS that you?" A familiar voice yelped. I turned my head and my eyes widened. I know that voice from anywhere......

"Z-Zaji-koi?!?!" I yelped, quickly covering my mouth after the suffix. Both of us blushed and looked away. Sylvette looked as confused as ever and Lag was still crying against me. He stood up and looked from me to Zaji, then back to me.

"You to........dated?" He asked. I flinched and held his throat in my hand. Zaji was blushing.

"You WILL regret that....." I threatened. Everyone sweat dropped except Zaji. He sighed.

"Still are Lag," Zaji answered, picking him up off of me. I breathed in and out dramatically. Zaji laughed and Sylvette gave me a questioning stare.

"What? He's fat!" I accused, pointing at Lag. He scoffed and turned away. I smirked truimphfetly and stood up, only to be found back on the floor again. My eyes were all anime swirly and I tried standing again.

"OW....." I complained.

"What the hell happened to you?" Zaji asked, anger in his voice.

"A gaichuu ....b-bit my head......OW OW OW!!!!" I yelped, holding my reopened wound. Zaji cursed under his breath.

"How come every time I see you, your always....." He took a look at me.

"Dying, I guess?"

"HA HA!!! Your head is all fluffy, Zaji-koi!" I cooed, stealing his hat.

"Wow, I know her head is bleeding but she's only drunk like this when she's having an allergic reaction...." Zaji confirmed.

He looked towards Sylvette and pointed at her.

"Your fault."

"WHAT?"

"The soup. She's allergic to soup."

Sylvette cursed and wheeled out of the room. Lag and Niche followed after her and I sat up from the floor, still groaning. Zaji picked me up bridal style and placed me in the bed again. He gave me a concerning look and began to walk away, but I grabbed his hand. He turned.

"Yes?" He questioned, raising a brow. I pulled him down to my level and batted my eye lashes cutely, just like I used to. And then he blushed, just like he used to.

"Nice to see you again, Zaji-koi" I said, and kissed him right on the lips.

Just. Like. I Used To.
