Chapter 1 - We're Moving??

"We are WHAT??" cried a 15 year old Mikan incredulously. She couldn't believe it. Here was her beloved grandfather, springing upon her a very, very surprising piece of news AND of all things he expected her to be excited about it.

HOW was she supposed to be excited? Especially if she was going to move away from her friends, and the school, that she had come to love? And not to mention, it wasn't another school in America, they were moving back to JAPAN, which was like, how many hours of flight away. A place she left when she was four. A place she had forgotten.

"We are returning to Japan. My work here has been completed and it's not safe here anymore. THOSE people have tracked us here," said her grandfather.

Mikan sighed resignedly. "When do we leave?"

"At midnight."

"Can I call my friends out for a farewell dinner then? And have my things been packed and my school informed?" asked Mikan.

"Yes, the maids just finished packing up and I personally talked to the principal. You can go out with your friends but come home safely. A bodyguard will accompany you, but at a distance."

"Hai, jii-chan. But don't worry, the training you've given me won't be put to waste if someone does try anything. There is also these," she said, gesturing to the expertly concealed poisoned senbon needles which were encased in a beautiful silver cover and engraved with cherry blossom petals, oranges and were entwined with lifelike vines which held her long luxurious hair up in an elegant bun, and her two daggers with the same design were tied onto her belt. The daggers were the type that slides into shape when she released it from its small, deceiving form and all were part of the numerous weapons she had, but these were the simplest to carry around.

"Alright, get going. I want you to be back by nine."

And with that, she left the house (mansion more like it), with her most trusted bodyguard trailing in her wake. She got her car keys and flipped out her phone and made a few calls to her friends.

"Hey….I just found out I'm leaving for Japan…….When? Oh, I'm leaving today…Yeah, I agree it totally sucks……So can you come out to the pizza parlour now…Spread it to the gang for me…Meet you guys there," said Mikan. She turned to her bodyguard. "Daisuke, you're welcome to join us.."

"…Thank you oujo-sama…OWW!!" he said as Mikan slapped him.

"Listen, I'm leaving tomorrow and I want to eat with everyone and you're included!" snapped Mikan, jabbing at his chest enough to make him feel slight pain.

"Hai, ouj--" Daisuke started to say but was slapped by Mikan.

"And NO formalities!!"

"Hai, Mikan-sama!" he saluted.

'Sigh…Why oh why couldn't he just call her Mikan or Mikan-san or Mikan-chan? Oh well, it's the best I can get out of him…' though Mikan.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Mikan got into her sports car and revved up the engine.

Daisuke snapped out of his musings and got into the passenger seat. He was going to miss his lil' boss. He never had any boss like her and her grandfather.

Mikan released the brakes and drove to the parlour at top speed. It's a wonder she didn't get caught by the police for speeding.

'The gang are already here, judging by the cars I see,' thought Mikan.

And in the parlour Mikan and Daisuke went.
