What happens when a girl that is blood related to Yuki grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, her parents never felt she was any good, and they treated her twin sister better? What happens when she tries to escape her past, and yet her past comes back to bite her? What happens when everyone sees the true her, not her fasana she put up around her self? What will happen if people from her past reappear and want to hurt the ones she loves? Will they still accept her, or will they turn their backs on her, like everyone else has? Will she have to put others before herself, and do very risky things in order to save the ones she loves, or will she be the one to turn her back? Will her other friends be able to help, or will they turn cowardly and run when she needs them the most?

A/N: I don't condone smoking, it kills, just like drinking and driving. My spelling sucks and so does my grammar :P Also the more reviews I get, the more inspired I will feel to write. :)
Chapter one: You have a cousin?
Suichii had just escaped from K's grasp. Despite for a break, him and the others made a dash for it. This is how it was when an album was nearing a dead line. Suichii looked around a corner, signaled Hiro and Suguru that the coast was clear. They hide in the back of the café. They all but collapsed in their seats, and sighed. They ordered food and drinks.
"K is going to kill us one of these days!"
"Suichii your over reacting."
"Easy for you to say Hiro. You only play an instrument, not singing." He pulled out his phone.
"What are you doing?"
"Remember what K did to my other cell phones? Anyways, we leave each other messages, so this way if my phone 'accidently' goes flying out the window, or 'accidenly' finds a ways down flight of stairs, we know what each other is doing, so Yuki doesn't do ballistic again, and I don't get worried." Hiro patted his shoulder, "How can you put up with the ass? Why don't you leave him for me?" Hiro wiggled an eyebrow suggestively, that only got him pushed off the chair, and onto the floor, "Gross!"
"Uh guys be quite, people are stairing at us." Suichii looked at Suguru, "Whoops." And sat down. Hiro put himself in his chair. Suichii listened to messages, "This is really strange, there's a girls voice, and she keeps calling Yuki her cuz. And she sounds agitated…..angry…..frustrated……..furious……….pissed…….extremely pissed……this girl definitely knows how to cuss. Now she's speaking different languages. Who is this girl?"
"Obviously his lover. She's just covering it up by calling Yuki her cousin." Suichii punched him, "Not funny."
The girl hung up the phone, with a sigh of aggravation, 'Where is that bastered?' She sat by a phone booth, cell phone in hand, 'Bastered.'
Mizuki looked over Yuki's latest work, "This is probably the most amazing story I've ever read. Than again, so like you, despite the fact your like a porcupine, your romance stories are amazing." He gave no reaction. Mizuki grinned and said, "So how are you and Suiichi? You haven't made him cry lately have you?"
"Our relationship is no concern of yours."
"So how's your cousin?"
" Who?"
"You mentioned a cousin a while ago."
"Don't know I haven't seen her in ten years." Than the cell phone rang, "What-"
"Damn bastered! I called fifty times for your sorry ass to pick me up. I actually had to do some asking before I found out where you were!"
"What are your talking about? No one even told me you were coming."
"That's apparent! Don't you ever check your messages?!?!?"
"….."
"Figures! Stop what ever your doing and come pick me up you ass!
"Well it would be nice if you or someone else called me and tell me your coming."
"Likely excuse!"
"Sky, it's not an excuse."
"Ya right!"
"Fine I'll come and pick you up"
"'bout time!"
Sky met her cousin outside of the airport. She got in the passenger side door. She began to fume at him, "Do you know how long I've been waiting here?!?! A friken 24 hours! That's-"
"Stop ranting before someone really thinks you've lost it."
" I lost it ten years ago!"
"That's apparent."
"Why I ottah-"
"Listen, I'm going to pick up Suiichi, and pull him out of the clutches of the monster formally known as K." Sky got a smile on her face, the one that read, -I'm going to start singing!- He shot her a glare, she kept smiling, "That doesn't work on me. So stop wastin' your energy. Now where was I? Oh yes, Yuki and Suiichi sittin' in the tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g, first come love than comes s-e-x!" Yuki groaned inwardly, she wouldn't shut up, until he shut her up himself. Sky has some annoying tendencies, one was being obnoxious as hell, another was she could knock down a full grown man with five punches. And she usually started the fight.
K had subdued Suiichi, and was trying to hull him back in, but Suiichi had caught the door frame. He was much stronger than he looked. And Suiichi wasn't about to be let go, "Let me go!"
"Hell no! Not until the song is done!"
"We've done it a trillion times!"
"Tohma doesn't think the trillion times is good enough!"
"Screw him!" Than a black Mercedes pulled up. The girl kept singing, until the driver hissed, "Shut the hell up Skylark! Your more obnoxious than Suiichi!"
"Don't call me that!" Yuki simply looked at her with a dull look. Suiichi had let go of the door frame. Before K could regain himself, Suiichi was long gone, just like the rest of the band. When K had let his guard down, they had bolted, faster than he expected or could catch. They must have been desperate. Than something caught his eye. The girl did. He almost began to drool, "Angel of heaven! God does have mercy upon my soul! He sent me Solar Sister Star!" She gave him a look that just told him to go to hell. He ran up to her, "Pleasure to meet you again." He grabbed her hands, "Who is this freak? And he better let me go." Suiichi looked at her, "That's K."
"Oh, the psycho manager I've seen on T.V.. You look different. It's been a long time huh Americano."
"Stop calling me that."
"Let's think for a moment, do I give a hell what you think….no. Do I have obnoxious tendencies…..yes. So that should be your answer."
"Why did you quit?" She took out a cigarette and lit it, "Money changed everything. No one was the same," She inhaled and exhaled, "I was sick of takin' shit. So I left. Pure and simple. So I see your managing a second rate band, Bad Luck is it? Your luck really is shitty huh? You go from a top band, Solar Sisters, to bumbling morons, that if they didn't have you as a manager, would have screwed themselves over a trillion times." She looked at Suichii, "Listen to the Americano, we were a garage band, than he turned us into a top band, one of the top ten in the world. But I have advice, if everything goes bad, cut your losses. It's better to have nothing, than be painted green, and look at every single second on how to make more money." She inhaled again, "It's better to remain your self, than be someone your not. Ask the Americano, he knows a lot about me and the group. Can we leave yet, I'm starved." Her cousin gave a sarcastic reply, "They have restaurants, or don't you know how to order?"
" Ha ha very funny," Than she turned back into her nasty self, "It's kinda hard, not to have, oh I don't know what it's called, oh yes, TO HAVE ANY MONEY! WHAT WAS I GOIN' TO DO? ROB THEM?!?!?! You really are a bastered," She looked at K, "Done torturing the wanna be?" He smiled and said, "Since I know you, yes I am done."
"Good. Let's go and cuz can feed me," Her stomach than growled, "Before I pass out from the lack of food." She hopped into the back seat. Suichii grabbed the passenger seat. He turned around and looked at her, "So you used to have K as a manager?"
"Duh! And now your gonna ask me if I sang as well right? Cuz, how can you stand him, he really isn't observant is he?" Her cousin closed the driver side door, "Nope."
"You really are related, your both mean!" She looked in between the seats, "I can be a whole lot meaner than the bastered, who left me at the AIRPORT FOR A DAY!" Yuki looked at her out of the corner of his eye, "You really need to learn to forgive."
"Ya, like you!" They glared at each other full on, "How long are you going to be here." She shrugged, "Don't know. Depends if my parents will allow me to come home."
"What did you do?"
"I ain't have ta do nothin' and I still get my ass kicked out of the house." He looked at the review mirror and gave her the and-you-expect-me-to-believe-you look. She gave him a middle finger salute, "Buzz off." But Sky knew it was between no so legal drag racing she had been involved in, to not being a 4.0 gpa like her sister. She had used the drag racing excuse that they wanted her to do extra curricular activities, so that was what she used. Unfortunately the police –nor her parents- bought it. But she had gotten a whole lot smarter, street smart that is. She looked at all the fancy buildings, "Geeze I really did grow up in the getto. Look at all the nice buildings. Rent's probably about fifty bodies per month. So cuz, how long have you and freak here, being doing some dirty dancing?" She wiggled her eyebrow. The car came to a screeching halt, "WHAT?!?!"
"Take a chill pill cuz. Jeez, can't you take some dirty humor? And let's just say I know all about your lives, thanks to the stalkerotsey, and the internet. And let's just say some very interesting pictures" She could see she was getting under her cousins skin. And she just couldn't stop it, "And I look at them every night-"
"SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!" She jumped, "Jeez, lighten up, your wover –kissey face- isn't embarrassed- wow, new shade of red, me likey! Meaning I got to the both of you in less than an hour, my skills have improved." She nodded her approval. The car started again –after many honks, and cursing people- he glared at her, "Don't tell me you will be staying here until the end of time." She gave a Siamese cat like grin, "Maybe I will, just to irk you."
The car was pulled into a parking lot, Suichii looked at Sky, "So your really related?"
"Duh! What kind of dumbass question is that?" Yuki looked over at his lover, "You learn to ignore her. Everyone does…..eventually." She gave him the birdie, and stuck out her tongue. He rolled his eyes, "Mature, really mature." They got out and proceeded to the elevator.
"Ya, like ya should be takin'!"
"Are you looking for a fight?"
"Verbal or physical? Because right know I want both."
"To bad, your not getting one or the other."
"Fine than, how about a good bar fight? It's been awhile since I was involved in one."
"No."
"Food fight."
"No." They entered the elevator, and when they got out, "Sparring match between me and you,"
She stuck her tongue out, "No?"
"Because I know you fight dirty." She shrugged her shoulders, "Point?"
"Point being you're a menace to society."
"Yay! He just called me a menace to society! Woohoo!"
"Are you positive that you haven't been smoking something illegal."
"Like….."
"Dragon eye or dragon tongue or what ever you used to smoke."
"Cuz, ya need to get your drugs straight," She looked over at Suichii, "If you want me to, I can get you some so you can tolerate dumb ass here."
"What did you offer him?" Yuki said deadly calm voice
"Shutting up know." Even Sky knew his limit. And if she didn't want to find herself on the streets she had better be quite. She entered the apartment, and looked around, it really was nice. She turned on the T.V. to see if her former 'friend' was saying crap like she normally did, 'She's up to something. She hasn't said crap about me in a week. Something smells like fish, and it be the kind I don't like.' She saw the dragon emblem on the bottom of the screen, and soon a guy and a girl appeared, 'Uh no, they have their own shown! Since when did they get their own show? Why didn't I have my own show? I hate them.' She knew them from the hood she grew up in. In fact she even knew their unique quirks. The guy introduced the show, "Welcome to JMTV, where we discuss the old and new artists of the 20th and 21st centuries! I'm Johnny and the pretty Janney."
"You are such a flirt!"
"As everyone knows Solar Sisters lost their main singer three years ago. Despite the fact
they are still hot. Their not as hot as they were."
"They are know known as Solar Sisters Galaxy are number one in Japan, after their clear verbal bashing of Solar Sister Star this week. This is what S.S.G. Sun has to say this, 'Youwant to know the real reason why S.S. Star quit was because she was out all night, she did drugs, she was never cooperative, she didn't do anything! Other than sitting on her lazy ass! I'm glade she's gone.' There ya go the video!" Sky's eyes twitched, 'Don't let her get to you. If you cave, she knows she just got under your skin……yep she just got under my skin. She is going to pay.' Than Sky gave a vicious smirk, 'And it will be on the air. I will paint her as a different person she really claims herself to be. And she's so stupid, she'll fall right into the trap.' Suiichi looked at her and asked, "Are you alright?"
"Just peachy." The evil look still on her face. She called up the show, and they put her on the air. What could be better than an ex singer for a hot band? And they also knew how she reacted. They could all smell a verbal smack down about to occur. Janney looked at the camera, "And on the phone we have Solar Sister Star on the phone! What's shakin' girlfriend?!"
"Nothin' same old boring shit. Well except that I'm goin' to tell the truth about who the true bitch is. And that would be Solar Sister Sun. She was the one that stayed up all night, she drank more liquor than a whole bar full of dumped bastereds! She's the one that did drugs! I wouldn't be surprised if she's drugged out know! She's the one that did nothing. And when she did she tried to boss us all around, including trying to get us all to practice at ungodly hours. Morning and night. If she would like to lie again, she can, on air! So everyone knows how easily she can deceive people!" Sky needed to let out steam, and what a more perfect opportunity than to take her anger out on her ex 'best' friend. If Solar Sun wanted to play. They would play, and there was only one person who would win. And it wouldn't be that witch of a bitch. Janney seemed to concentrate on her ear piece, "And we have
Sister Solar Galaxy Sun on the air!"
"What I have said is so true! If she was to pass a lie detector test, it would be the sign of the apoctolypse!"
"I have an idea, why don't you take one." There was no answer, "See silence provides the
truth!"
"Why don't you start telling the truth you whore!"
"You can't control me, so stop telling me what I can't and can say! But there is one thing you can do, and that is to tell the truth!"
"Now you listen to me you road racin' whore! You are the one who had better stop lying and to start telling the truth!"
"I don't know what shit your trying to pull, but it probably has somethin' to do with money, but you had better start telling the truth!"
"Or what? You'll run me over in that hunk of crap of yours you call a car?"
'Oh she just didn't call my Phoenix 8 a hunk of crap.' She looked over at her cousin, "Did she just call P8 a hunk of crap." Her cousin shrugged. "That's it! I was being nice, or trying to, but listen up you mariwana smoking hoe bitch, if you ever try and accuse me of somthin' I've never dine, ya will be goin' down in a flaming wreck, comrade?!"
"So scared."
"At least I know how to race, I don't get conned into doing stuff for free, I don't drink more than a sailor does in one year and than proceed in doing a strip tease on the bar. And I don't smoke or huff substances and get caught like you do!"
"At least I don't drag race illegally!"
"So?"
"And than killed someone in the process!" Sky didn't even bat an eye. Everyone knew this. How could they not. Most believed that she wasn't the one that actually killed the person, it was the other driver. Which was never found. But people on the under ground street racing, knew who it was. And they didn't feel like ending up dead. "I wasn't the one that actually hit that car. You and everyone else knows that. Come up with something better"
"Who cares. Point being you hit the car, thus the murderer."
"Really than why was there purple and black paint chips, not to mention 'gifts' from the other driver? Huh explain how they got there, while my car was bronze shades?"
"Point being, I'm not a murderer "
"Than where is this second person?"
"Still on the streets."
"Not likely."
"At least I attend to the sick!"
"What are you blabblin' about you psycho?"
"Do you honestly think that I wouldn't find out about your parents and grandparents funerals?"
"I was working and not passed out like someone."
"What about Blue, your dog, that got killed? Everyone was there, we buried him, and yet you
were no where to be found. To not even say good bye."
"Working again"
"How about food poisoning? And I laid on the floor dying. You couldn't even be reached because your cell phone was turned off. If it wasn't for Comet, I would be dead!"
"Working."
"How about your little sister rehearsal? We all made time to see her perform. You weren't
even there."
"See, you care for no one but yourself! I've made resisution in my life. You have a lot more
than a killer could ever have to do. I've even stopped racin' bitch! "
"Right. And I can't sing."
"'bout time you admitted it."
"Fuck off bitch."
"You really are a piece of work. You really are pathetic, ya know! Your a sad, pathetic
excuse of a human being, and yet a perfect example of a self absorbed 'human' being. And just
to let you know, I've done nothing else wrong. So stop trying to aint me worse than you have
painted yourself. Get lost. I hope when you are all alone and no one wants to be around you,
just remember you had everything. But because your a self centered whore, and you just can't see it!"
"Ya like you!"
"I have one of my mfany friends, and one of my cousins at my side. I don't need my mother or father. It's because I have other backin' me. They look past my bad dominion, road racing, drinkin' drugin' and everything else. It's because they know, no matter what, I'll still be me. You have no family left by your sides and your slowly losing friends. So stop being' big and bad, because ya ain't bitch! Peace out!" She hung up and went for the cigarette.After awhile Yuki actually had to open up a window to let out all the smoke Sky was producing from smoking. She chewed on a butt of a cigarette, and threw a arm over her face. Nothing got to her more than egoistic people who though they were better than everyone else. When in truth, they weren't even close to being better than anyone else. If anything they were worse than everyone else. Her cousin sat across from her in one of the leather chairs,
"Tell me what happened."
"'bout what?" He gave her a hard look
Sky smirked, "What are you smirking about?!"
"Because your a fool," she looked at both of them, "Some people still believe I kill that person. Despite the fact there was another car, and left 'gifts' on the mangled car. I barely made it out of the ball of flames, formally called Phoneix 6. Since the coppers proved that I wasn't the killer, all I was charged with was reckless driving and driving under the age. Noting more, nothing less." She put her cigarette in the ash tray. Suichii asked, "Why didn't you tell them the person's name?"
"What good would that have been.""
"What?"
"You want a fake name when ya be doin' something illegal. My case was illegal drag racing. You don't go around sayin' and usin' your true name. If you do, your really screwing yourself over. Everyone knows it. You use code names, mines Phoenix dragon, no one knows I'm related to that bastered. And no one ever will. Anyways, you do this, so when you, someone else or a group of people get caught, we can't rat on each other. And also, if your really smart, for every illegal thing ya do, get a new code name. This makes the coppers think." She sat up and said, "I rarely see this person anyways. Even if I knew their true name I wouldn't tell the coppers."
"Why?"
"There are just some people you just don't cross. Especially every powerful people. Either they have money, influences and sometimes both. If you cross them, you just screwed you and everyone else around you. " She got up and looked at Suichii, "I know I'm going to kill myself for this, but come on, I'll teach you how to actually hold notes. Since the Americano will make me anyways, I would rather do it myself, rather than having his stupid gun aimed at my head." Sky watch with amused eyes, as Suichii gave her cousin a kiss on the lips, she began to sing the song, she sang in the car. She knew her cousin was glaring at her back. But she didn't give a shit.
