Ohayo Minna~ This is Rinny speaking!… Or better yet, writing! Sorry that I haven't been writing at all in a very long time desu~

However, now that I have gotten my energy back (from eating yummy cookies) Rinny is here to write Desu! Let's begin with the story! *Drum rolls*

Naoki: Are you sure you have explained everything?

Rin: Yep~

Kai: She probably forgot something…

Ren: So you're saying to leave it be?

Miwa: Rinny's dense Ren. She's dense, well sometimes and that's most of the times *chuckle*

Suiko: It's the disclaimer Rinny-san… You forgot the disclaimer

Rin: Oh…

Aichi: Since she forgot, I'll just do it then. Rinny-san doesn't own CardFight! Vanguard!

Suiko: All she owns is the story! Enjoy!


Chapter [1]

"Your parents probably never liked you. They probably hated a stuck up, cold jerk like you. Heck I don't think they even wanted to give birth to you. Maybe your mom had no choice. It could be the reason why they died together leaving you all alone in this world."

After those words from Morikawa, the whole trip felt awkward. Non of them spoke as they headed toward their destination. Everyone just kept quiet after Morikawa yelled those words at Kai.

Kai for one looked out of the window. He closed his eyes as those memories flashed back to when he was a child. They were happy that time. They were happy together. But then everything had to come to an end. Suddenly all he saw was blood. On his hands and his face. Not his blood but his parents.

Kai opened his eyes. Everything was over. It ended for him that day. He looked at his hand and clutched it tightly. 'Kai. Kai. Kai, why aren't you answering?' He could hear faint voices calling out to him. Begging for his answer. True it was them, he knew it.

But he wasn't stupid. He knew they were long gone. There's nothing that could be done. There was never anything that he could have done in the beginning.

"Kai." Kai mentally shook his head to shake his thoughts off from his head. He turned around to see red predator eyes examining him.

"Hn?" He answered usually. He tried not to let Morikawa's words get to him. After all they were only just words. They wouldn't bite... Would they?

"You look quite pale, Kai. Anything bothering you?" Of course something was bothering Kai. Ren knew that much. He knew what was going through Kai's mind. He knew them all. But he just had to ask.

Kai eyed Ren for a while. Everyone took a sneak look at Kai as they haven't heard from him after Morikawa ran his mouth. "I'm fine." Kai replied as if it was a mumble. His tone was cold. Everyone could feel the coldness around him.

Miwa and Ren shared a look before they sighed. It can't be helped. Morikawa already said that and they can't just rewind and stop Morikawa from saying that. They can't travel back in time to change it. But, they wished they could. If they had stopped Morikawa, it wouldn't have turned out that way.

It didn't take long before they reached their destination. They were on a trip to visit Mr. Mark's house that summer. They had nothing better to do that summer, so Mark gathered everyone around and decided that they will be going to his house for the summer.

Not that but Mark, had lots of things he needed to do that summer so he needed their help. That summer, Mark moved to another house, so they had to paint the house and bring the furnitures in. Lucky for them, the house itself was quite big enough for them to fit in there.

"So here we are my fellow shinobis, at my house." Mark smiled as he showed them the house. It was huge house they could tell.

"So here's the pairs who'll be sharing in the rooms." Shin smiled as he took out a list from his pocket.

"Misaki is with Kai." Misaki and Kai rolled their eyes.

"Miwa and Ren." Both Ren and Miwa just grinned. But then Ren heard Shin say. "Aichi will be with Asaka." Ren and Kourin just gaped at that while others chuckled.

Soon the whole list was announced. Everyone went to their respective rooms with their respective partners. They kept their bags inside and rested for a while. It was a good thing that the house had beds in each rooms or they would end up sleeping on the floor.

Not long, they were called out by Mark and Shin who told them to get ready to paint the house and bring the furnitures in. Kai, Ren, Naoki, Suiko, Morikawa, Kamui, Eiji and Reiji were assigned to the third floor. While Miwa, Aichi, Kenji, Asaka and Izaki were assigned to the second floor of the house. The rest were downstairs helping with the furnitures and painting while others were preparing lunch.

"Hey Morikawa," Morikawa turned around to see an orange head who was painting a wall of the room.

"What is it?" Morikawa asked. They could tell Morikawa was really irritated with Kai not that Kai had ever done anything wrong to him.

"Why did you speak to Kai that way?" Naoki asked as he frowned a bit. Sure he knew Morikawa hated Kai, but Kai was still his friend. He can't let anyone of his friends get hurt. He just hated that.

Morikawa looked at Naoki in a manner and growled. "He deserves it." He said before marching off.

"What had he done wrong?" Suiko asked as she painted the other side of the wall. She couldn't understand why Morikawa hated Kai that much.

Hearing that Morikawa stopped dead in his track. "What had he done wrong?! My mom almost got herself into an accident because of him!" He shouted. They couldn't tell whether they were lucky or not that Ren and Kai were painting the balcony and can't hear the conversation.

Is Luck even the right word for what they heard just now?


Rin: One chapter of NTS (Never The Same) finished! Sorry if there is any spelling errors or anything! Finally, time to eat cookies Desu~

Kai: I wouldn't do such a horrible crime to kill ones parent…

Ren & Miwa: I don't think Rinny even cares about anything other than her cookies right now…

Morikawa: Once more, Rin doesn't own CardFight! Vanguard! And dang you Kai!

Suiko: All Rin-san own is the story!
