Guess whose back?

JacquesA: Jackie-sama is!

JacquesB: Along with her two muses, JacquesA and me.

Jackie: After a short holiday (from writing fanfics) I decided to go ahead and start a new project. I was going to write a sequel to one of my previous fics (Schwarz Sie Läufer-go read it if you haven't!) but due to some unfortunate circumstances, that project was abandoned. Maybe after I get another fic started I will decide to go back to that project. For now I will be "Wo ist mein Bruder?" Which is this fic your about to read.

JacquesB: Jackie-sama was a little upset on how Gluhen ended so she decided to write this post-gluhen fic to tie up some lose ends. She is not however taking in any events that have happened in the dramatic cds as she has never been able to see them. ::sigh::

JacquesA: I know Jackie-sama would appreciate this greatly so I am going to do this. I am going to say the disclaimer for this chapter. In fact, I am going to say the disclaimer for this chapter and this same disclaimer will apply to all other chapters. Just so you know. Any who, Jackie-sama does not own Weiss. This fiction is made purely for entertainment and is not made for the profit of money or anything of that sort. Got it? Do I have to repeat it again? Well too bad! You'll just have to reread this paragraph if you want to hear it again.

Jackie: Okay my muses I think they get the idea.

JacquesA: Just making sure.

Jackie: Well this story will be written in first person all through. However, the person from whose point of view it is may change. This chapter will be in the point of view of Aya-chan. I will let you know if that changes. That is, if I feel like it.

Wo ist mein Bruder?

It has been five months since I last heard from my brother. Even then he didn't say much. I always remember telling me that he always wanted to see America. I know that's where he went. I only wished I could have come with him. Of course, if I did go with my brother, he would probably be over protective and wouldn't let me do anything.

Still, I had waited five months for him to contact me. Sadly enough, I hadn't received any news from him. By now I would have at least gotten a phone call, a postcard, or something! Why hasn't he contacted me?

Many people get the impression that Ran is a man of few words. Well, ever since I woke up I believe that statement true. However, I remember times when my brother and I would take long walks talking about our in most secrets. I really do miss the way things were. However, I know that things can never go back to that wonderful bliss. Ran has a different life now, and I am no longer part of it.

Please, do not feel sorry for me, or even for Sakura-chan-who was abandoned by Ran-but sympathize for my brother and all that he bears around his neck.

Ever since I have been awake and out of my coma, I notice that whenever I see Ran he always tries to run away from me as if he was trying to hid something from me. This worries me. He should be able to come to me and ask me to help him. I will help carry some of his sins if I have to. I am his sister!

The thoughts of my brother still lingered in my heart, but I still had to carry on with my job. I was able to complete a total eighty different flower arrangements within the day. Can you believe it? It seems like a lot, but when something troubles your heart, time slows itself down.

Momoe-san noticed the great progress I had done. She was so happy! The smile on her face makes me forget on my troubles for that moment. Even if it is only a moment, it is a moment I cherish! With her big smile on her face, Momoe-san let us close the shop early and have ourselves a little break.

"Momoe-san?" I desperately needed somebody to talk to about the weight on my mind, "Can I have a word?"

"Of course dear," the sweet old lady replied taking a seat at the kitchen table.

"Well I wanted to talk to you about something,"

"About your brother?" How did she know? Was I that transparent? Does she know what troubles me? "As an old lady, I seem to pick up a lot of things about a single person. Especially one I have been living with." Even though Momoe-san said that it was her old age that made her wiser, it felt to me like she just grew twenty years younger. It is not a normal thing to have an actual intelligent conversation with her. I had always tried before, and she would only go on about a totally of subject. Perhaps she knew something I didn't.

"Hai, I wanted to know if...if...you knew anything about...him." I was trying to speak as quietly as I could. I knew she knew something about Ran, and I know now that she has been trying to hide it from me. Momoe-san keeping secrets put me in a very uncomfortable position. I didn't really want to talk with her anymore. She was a very dishonest person! How else was I going to find out about my brother? I knew Sakura-chan wouldn't tell me anything. It seems like she knew less about the whole situation than I did. Momoe-san was my only choice.

"Well, I am only going to tell you a little bit about him. All the rest you should hear from Ran himself." I wasn't able to comprehend any other part of the interview, because Momoe-san's voice was droned away by my pounding head. I wanted to know what happened to my brother! Why won't she tell me?! I tried to regain my composure only able to catch a few names...Yohji Kodou....Ken Hidaka...Omi Tsukiyono....

Jackie: Wow! I actually got started on another story! Snaps for Jackie!

JacquesA and B: ::snap snap snap snap::

Jackie: Thank you, thank you. I couldn't have done it without my muses.

JacquesB: Of course you couldn't have! And you can't do without reviewers either!

JacquesA: So basically, no review, no chapter. Got it?

Jackie: Calm down! We don't want to threaten our readers now do we?

JacquesA and B: YES WE DO!

Jackie: Why? Why? Why am I doomed with such horrible vermin as muses? Why?!
