troublesome days are troublesome.

Chapter 1: The Return of the Devil

This story takes place in Japan, the place where all troubles and weird aliens are gathering together, troublesomely. "haah.." a brown-haired 18-year-old boy is closing the door of his house and prepares to leave. It's been a year since Lala leaves them to return to her home planet, Deviluke, for administrating their marriage. That is never going to happen. ^_^;. "fuuh.. Why does she even have to go?" he grumbles again while walking through the streets he used to pass each day he went to school. But what is he doing now? It's Sunday and he didn't have to go to school at Sunday. "Riing, riing.." his phone suddenly rang, and waiting for him to pick it up. "hello? What is it, Mikan! I'm on my way right now!" that boy answers the phone with pretty high tones. "Just don't forget to buy the things I told you to!" the girl named Mikan answered him back. "Fine, fine!" he answers and hang the call up. He then puts his phone back to his pocket and keep going again. Looks like he's on a shopping duty again today.

When he reached the town center in about 10 minutes from then, he finally made it there and tired; which leaves him no choice but to sit in a café for a short rest. "haaaah…." He complains again, grumbling about how he made it to the town center in 10 minutes. "gulp", he gulped as he stands up, and survived from Golden Darkness' nano slice attack, which used to happen each time he went here. "Ya… Yami!" the boy shouts with fear and cold sweats, trying to escape her attacks which she gives him once (or more) in a day. "Yuuki Rito, if you think you can walk through the town without me knowing it, that would be a waste of time for you to do. You are still my target and I won't take my eyes off you until you've been assassinated." The girl that named Golden Darkness (or Konjiki no Yami) with a sharp red eyes, and a slightly long, blonde hair which can turn into many different forms with her nano machine in her body, is been sent to Earth in order to kill him, Yuuki Rito, and decided to stay on Earth until she can do so, or until she have settled things with him. "I… I'm just here to do grocery shopping for daily living!" he answers with another sweats going down from his face. "No matter what you are doing here, you're still my target and I have to assassinate you." She answered him instantly. Then she moved her light body up in the air and prepares some more cool forms to assassinate him. "wh.. Whoa!" he screams and managed to avoid her attacks well while trying to escape from the town centre. They play chase and people are all staring at them. Up in the sky while all that is going on, a devil-tailed girl silhouette with devil wings are watching them, and seems to be smiling at them. In the same time, Sairenji Haruna, a classmate of Rito's and the girl Rito have a crush on, was also walking in the town centre, and accidentally saw Rito and Yami chasing each other. "Yuu… Yuuki-chan?" she sighs. Suddenly, Rito is running and heading through her direction and… "THUMP!" Rito and Haruna crashed each other.

"un.. Unh…" Haruna moans. "H… hwaaaah!" Rito yelled back, realizing where his hands landed, perfectly on her breasts which is smaller than Lala's. "I… I'm very sorry!" he yelled again with a doubtful notes. "I…it's okay, Yuuki-kun, as long as you don't do that on purpose…" she answered to him with her shy, and pretty low voice.

Just a minute after a hence of silence, Golden Darkness came back again and this time, she brought another weapon! The nano hammer!

"Yuuki Rito, you might be in a good situation right now, but I will not allow such pervert stuff happened here while you're still my target.."

She shouted to Rito with her placid face waiting for him to realize she's there. "Y…Yami!" another sweat dropped out from his long, pale brown neck into his shirt's sleeves. "S…Sairenji! I gotta go!" he shouted to that deep-blue haired girl while running like a crazy being chased by Yami.

"Yu…Yuuki-kun…" she then murmured with another low and "don't-know-what-to-do" face.

While all that was happening, in the Yuuki's residence, Mikan seems to have a little surprise she might want Rito to know about. In the dining room, where all the facilities like TV, sofa, even gaming device like P*2, is there. And in the sofa, there we have it!

A long, pink-haired girl with a devilish tail waving here and there is also her trusted Dress Form costume robot, Peke!

Yup, Lala Satalin Deviluke, a.k.a the first princess of Planet Deviluke is sitting down on their sofa, waiting for someone to be home.

"Hey, Lala-san, can I get you something to drink?" Mikan asks with her happy face she can't cover. "Ah? No thanks Mikan! I'm waiting for Rito to be home!" She then answered with her usual, kiddy voice she used to had. Glad to hear that voice is spoken again…

"Ho….Hooooahh!" Rito screams while Yami is still chasing him mercilessly. "Yuuki Rito, if you still refusing for me to kill you, this will only take longer…" that blonde with her hammer on her hand is murmuring. "H…How can I stop when you show that giant hammer in front of my face!" he answered fearfully, hoping that this assassin from space will stop chasing him for a while. Even if it's just for a while. He then saw an alley on his runway, a small alley that directly links him closer to his house. He then runs there with no doubts, the jumps off the wall which is about 4 meters tall, and made it to go to the other side of the alley. Yami can't just run there, so she also decided to jump off that wall and also made it.

He then made it to go to his house, and just when he is about to enter, he heard that high-cute, and straight voice from inside his house.

He tries to open the door fast and take a look who's in there.

"Lala?" He yelled in thoughts.
