Chapter 1: First Song
Chara Change Chara?
Summary: Amu Hinamori was the Joker. Yup, the key word, was the Joker. When an attack from Easter leaves her eggs shattered, the guardians, her so-called friends, abandoned her, even if they don't notice it. What the guardians didn't know was, when she returned 3 years later from her sudden disappearance, was the change that had taken place on not just Amu, but her Eggs as well.
Diary Entry One.
Hi, my name is Hinamori Amu, well, you can call me Amu! Ummm, I'm 13 right now and yeah! Ummm, I'll start from the beginning? No that's to far, I don't think I can remember much anyway. I'll just tell you my life from... Somewhere I guess...
"Get them!" A gruff voice shouted. He was dressed in a white lab coat and chasing the five running figures off in a distance. A group of people, dressed in the same manner as the man, ran after the five with many dark X characters.
"Guys, you ready?" A boy with blond hair and a small crown on top of his head asked.
"Yeah!" The four behind them answered.
"One, two, Chara Transform!" They spoke in unison. Bright lights filled the area.
"Amu? What's wrong?" I heard my friends ask. I brushed a part of my hair behind my ear before answering.
"My Shugo Charas,... Remember the attack with Easter yesterday?" I start off.
"Yeah, they were too strong yesterday, they must have found a way to make the X-Charas more powerful because there wasn't that many." Tadase spoke, his voice laced with worry.
"During the attack, when I was about to transform, someone hit my eggs away." My voice wavered with each word.
"Really?" They spoke shocked. 'Of course, you never notice...No I can't think that way about my friends...'
"And..." My voice chocked as I reached for my pouch were I keep my eggs, " Look." My hands cradled 4 eggs, that... that were in pieces. Ran's egg was in three large chunks, Miki's egg was in 5 or 6, Suu's was in around 9, and Dia's...hers was completely shattered into almost a powdery substance.
I felt a sharp burn across my cheek. I looked up to see Yaya with her hand in the air.
"How could you be so careless!" I looked up to see 4 enraged faces.
"How can be get the Embryo now?" Tadase shouted.
"It's all your fault we can't get the Embryo now!" Nagihiko yelled.
"I-I-Im sorry I-" My voice wavered and I felt tears stream down my cheeks.
I saw Tadase walk up to me and yank the Lock from my neck in one harsh pull, I yelped and stumbled, resulting in me falling. I landed face first because my hands were cradling my … used to be my eggs. I felt something trickle down my cheeks from my eyes that I knew weren't tears. It turns out I scarped my eyes in the bushes I fell in.
"Leave!" They screamed in unison. I looked up in horror.
"Y-Yaya Chan?" I trembled.
"Don't call me Yaya-chan! Do you think I'm your friend anymore?" I heard her sneer at the word.
"Nagihiko-"
"Don't even think about it." He cut me off. I turned to Tadase. He turned his back and spoke.
"Mail the Guardian's cape to my house, and leave, you are not permitted in the Royal Garden anymore."
I froze, then I carefully put my eggs back into my pouch and limped away. It turns out, I cut my leg to, I barely made the way to the door, my eyes were getting dark, probably from the bush I fell in.
When I finally made it home I ran to my room well, as fast as I could with my injuries. I care fully undid my pouch and I made my way to the bathroom. I washed my eyes out, and trust me, it hurt. By the time I was done, the sink was stained red. I grabbed some gauze and plopped on the bed. When I made sure I was in my bed and comfortable, I grabbed the gauze I had gotten earlier, and I bandaged my eyes closed and the cut on my leg.
A loud ring awoke me and I sat up, I slowly undid my bandages and tried looking around, to check for any damage to my eyes. To my surprise, I could see just fine! I went to the mirror and gasped. My eyes had a red ring around my usual golden color. The red was small, barely noticeable unless you looked directly into my eyes so I brushed it off. I walked to where my pouch was and opened it, I gasped.
The eggs, they were gone! No trace, ANYWHERE! After 2 hours of searching I decided to accept the fact, there...gone. I walked to where I had the guardian cape and packed it for shipping. I walked to the mailbox and shoved it in. Then I made my way to school. I remember, I felt like a empty shell. When I got in, teachers where yelling at me, saying how irresponsible I was as a student. I saw stares bored into my back as I walked to a seat I haven't sat in in a long time. The one all the way in the corner. When class was finished, an announcement was made that all students should go to the auditorium. Soon, the place was crammed with kids.
"Ahem." Heads turned to Tadase, also known as King. But when they saw the rest of the guardians on stage as well, they looked back to me.
They whispered,
"Shouldn't she be up there"
"But she was late to..."
A loud cough, more like clearing of the throat, made them snapped there heads to the King.
"We have an announcement, we have a new Joker." At this is widened my eyes.
"Mizuki Lalu, pleasure to meet you." She had short bright purple hair, cropped in a pixie cut. small grey eyes, and a petite figure over all.
"That is all." And everyone raced out to gossip and well, go home. Everyone except me.
I walked up to the group who were once my friends.
"Oh I hope you don't mind, she has 4 characters, you have 0, I think you know what this means right? I admit, we were a bit over dramatic yesterday but we forgive you." And with that Tadase walked out and the guardians followed.
The new Joker walked up to me and scoffed, "You are worthless, get the fuck out of here, mmkay?" She spoke in french. She was clearly Japanese but since she just came here, she was probably studying abroad.
I was taken aback by her, I was about to turn and walk away when,
"~change~" I heard a small voice mutter, before I found out who it was,
"Why don't you get your fucking spoiled ass to run along with your owner, being a Joker isn't as easy as it seems bitch." I glance at her belt that had 4 eggs attached. "Try getting your own damn eggs to hatch first you bastard." She widened her eyes and ran off.
I took in a sharp inhale of breath, first off all how did I learn french in 2 seconds? And why did I just curse someone out so when I barely talk at all?
"~Because of Me of course.~" I heard a voice whisper into my ear, I turned my head around on instinct. I saw a Shugo Chara? She had to low, long, pink, pig tails, a black lace dress that was cut short, with a pair of boots. And on her head was a top hat that had a large broken heart that was held together with stitches.
"~I'm Ran.~" She spoke and landed on my shoulder. "~And I'm sooo back!~"
Date: XX-XX-20XX
…...
On a plane heading toward Japan, A pink and black haired girl closed her small book and sighed.
"~Whats up?~" A small voice spoke.
"The ceiling?" She answered back.
"~Haha, real funny.~"
"Nothing really, just thinking of the time I met you, Ran, again."
"~I know, geez Amu, I remember, you were so freaked when you found out.~"
"I think I would've been, I mean the Ran then and the Ran now are so different."
"~Remember, Charas can change to, just as you do you.~"
Chapter 2: Second Song
Chara Change Chara?
Diary Entry Two
I remember the crisp air of Japan when I walked down from the plane. The wind was a bit strong for my taste so I put my hair, which had grown long inevitably because of a traumatic incident with a hairdresser that cut things way to short -.-..., into a loose braid. Once I got inside of the airport I fiddled with my key chain. I was never good at the luggage pick up. On the conveyer belt, I saw my bags and rushed to get them. I cringed at the harsh noise that indicated someone speaking on the announcer.
"Will the owner of the blue violin case please come to the front desk?" She stammered, she had a annoyingly loud voice and the fact they had to use a microphone, I sighed.
I pulled at my bags,and pulled, and tugged, and pulled, and tugged, and tugged, and pulled, and tugged,…and pulled,….they didn't move an inch!
When I was about to ask someone for help, a large hand grasped the handle on my bags and pulled them down for me. When I turned around to thank who ever it was I froze. 'Tadase...?'
Although he fully grew out the child-like phase, I could tell it was him. His hair became slightly a darker shade of blond, he was taller than me by at least 4 inches, the large eyes became slightly hawk-like, the gaze was sharp but gentle... pssssh yea right, scratch the 'gentle' part. Most girls would swoon for me, however, that was not the case with me.
I muttered to Ran, "Look, his majesty is here." I heard a snicker from my right shoulder,
"~Hello prince~" Ran spoke in fluent English. She flew to Tadase's head to see Kiseki perched on it. I chuckled when the small prince fell from his seat and onto Tadase's hands.
"~I am king!...And who are you?~" I couldn't help but snicker when Kiseki threw a fit over being called prince, had they really stayed the same, for five years? I was wearing my black tinted sunglasses and my bangs covered most of my face if I tilted it at the right angle so I got an idea. Ran seemed to catch on to. I walked over to where my bags where and pointed to them.
"Aren't you going to give them back?" He was still gripping them. He flushed at his mistake and hurriedly gave them back to me. "Next time keep your head straight." I motioned Ran to follow when he grasped my wrist. I felt a wave of nostalgia hit me but I wasn't going to fall for it again.
"Can't we get more familiar?" He was trying, even I could see that, to swoon me. He really didn't know me was me yet. I, however wasn't the naive 5th grader anymore. I spoke,
"I think we," I took of my glasses, "are way" I pushed my braid to the back at a angle where it looked like I had shorter hair, "too familiar," then finally I brushed my bangs away, "aren't we, prince?" I enjoyed the look on his face when it morphed from hope, to fear, to shock. I smirked, "I should be going now, besides, aren't your friends waiting for you?" I ,motioned to were I saw the rest of them as I grabbed my bags, walking to the taxi that I had reserved a few nights back.
I saw Ran kiss Kiseki on the cheek before flying back to my shoulder. I laughed soundlessly when I saw the shade of red he turned. Ran snickered along side me when she saw him become a tomato. When I finally reached the taxi, it drove me to Easter.
XX/XX/20XX
Amu Hinamori
…
I sat in the waiting room, squirming slightly in the black chair. I saw Ran also etching her nails into the wood out of pure boredom. I had my sunglasses back on and decided to pull out the braid. I played with the black highlights between my fingers. I heard the click of the knob turning and saw someone come in. I saw a...blue violin case? I looked up slightly to see...IKUTO? Calm down, calm down Amu! I didn't expected him to be here, well, at least not this early! But Ran however looked intrigued and walked over to where he sat.
"~Where's he?~" She spoke, in Japanese for once.
"...What?" His voice got deeper but not to deep, in a ...chocolatey sort of way... Did I just compare his voice to chocolate? I brushed my bangs over my face to hide the blood flow to my cheeks.
"~Your Shugo Chara~" Ran answered, getting agitated from the obvious reason, Ikuto didn't bother to look up from his cellphone, well, until Ran spoke. His head snapped up and stared at me, and jolted a little when he saw Ran. Did he think I was talkingto him?
"Your a Shugo Chara?" He murmured, shifting his position to meet hers. "It's not a good idea to be here, you should get far away from here."
"~Yeah yeah, Easter want to get the Embryo because of the spoiled-" Ran spoke then was muffled by my hand when she revealed a bit to much. While she started to speak that sentence I ran toward her and clamped my hand on her mouth and pulled her back, dragging her back to my seat.
Ikuto stood up and made his way to where I was sitting, but before he could get any closer, the doors slammed open and revealed two figures. "Hina-san, Tsuki-san, it's time for your jobs." Some one in a white lab coat stated.
I was puzzled when he said just Hina, from Hinamori but was thankful anyway, I don't want to reveal myself to him if I don't have to. I saw Yoru appear from the corner of my eye on Ikuto's shoulder. Rubbing his eye, it seemed that he had slept.
"Let's go." I saw Utau standing next to the man in the lab coat and had her Shugo Chara on both her shoulders. I grabbed my luggage and strained when I tried carrying it, Ran tapped my shoulder and,
"~Chara Change~" She muttered. My hair clip changes to a broken heart which was held together by stitches, and I picked it up with ease, well I was in Chara Change mode so I flung it effortlessly to the guy in the white coat to carry. Then I undid the Change. I saw puzzlement in the eyes of the siblings. Well, obviously, but I brushed it off. I walked down first, to hide my face somehow from the siblings. Right when I thought I was safe, a hand firmly grasped my wrist. I was yanked back and was face to face with Utau.
"Hina-san, just who are you?" She spat, eying me with disdain. This ticked me off, I hated people invading my personal space. "I believe is common courtesy to introduce yourself, right Tsukiyomi Utau-san?" I twitched at the slip-up but I was to pissed off to bother. "You and" I pointed to Ikuto who was stareing at me with shock, "stay away from me." With that I proceeded to turn a corner when I saw Ran. Ran was poking at something at my bracelet. I saw the usual maroon colored-broken-heart egg charm, but then I saw a dusty blue-colored one with a cracked spade on it, I gasped, Miki?
I nodded at Ran at we decided to keep 'Miki' on the down low, this is Easter after all, we can't risk them knowing this information. While Ran and I were observing the newly obtained blue charm on my bracelet, the two siblings had almost caught up to me, as well as the lab coat guy. When everyone caught up I walked up the stairs that lead me to a large stage. Ikuto and Utau walked off to the seats and I saw 3 people sitting in what looked like a judging panel before me.
"Thank you for your presence, Ms. Hina." A blond, most likely french, man spoke in a flamboyant way.
"Now then. We would like to proceed with the audition, I have star pupils" She turned to the siblings, "to attend to." he second person that spoke had obvious favoritism to the two.
"Hell yea!" The last one had large head phones on, I doubt he could hear anything of the outside world with the music blasting on high.
"Audition..." I repeated with a raised eyebrow.
"We know of your talents, but we need to confirm it." The second judge spat. I sighed, what a bother, I walked to where my suitcase was placed and pulled out a coin. "Heads, do it, tails, leave." I flicked it into the air and let it fall to the ground with a clank. "Tails it is." I took my suitcase and was about to leave when the judge screeched,
"We, took time for you to take this test and you dare leave, you brat!" I got pissed then, I flicked the coin to her direction and it cut half her hair off. I turned and smirked,
"Bye Bye~" Ran and I spoke in unison. I only went to Easter for the money but right now Miki was more important. I know how auditions are like, millions of call backs and the rest of the crap. I ran out the door with my suitcase in hand (after Chara change of course), and to my new dorm. Yup, that's right, a dorm.
Okay, I know I haven't updated for ever! But I'm not going to write about some lame excuse or something like that. I just didn't feel like typing (sorry TT^TT), but I hate typing b/c I'm so slow at it TT^TT. And this chapter is weird b/c its kind of a filler, but an important filler? There's not much interesting going on but xD I did it! Literally, I just did it today October 23, 2010 8 o'clock to 11:08 pm... Fastest chapter I ever wrote O_o. I'd like to thank everyone who reviewed xD. I do have stuff going on but the main reason is because I just take long to update...that's really my 'excuse' per say... SORRY TT^TT.
Chapter 3: Third Song
Chara Change Chara?
"~It's a funny thing really. You leave for a little bit and everything you know and love is gone. Everything. Well, until you come back and take it back, even if it means ripping their hands off with it...~" Ran had a particularly grotesque thought before going back to filing her nails. She was referencing a drama she watch on the plane ride that left a lasting memory in her mind.
I concentrated on Miki. The charm on my bracelet was becoming more and more clear, a stark contrast from the muddy blue it was when Ran first discovered it. I had been sitting at a table in the late Tokyo night's busy street, waiting for Miki to just pop out drawing randomly... But what would she be like now? After starring at the charm, I felt like I was starring at a piece of myself.
"~She's taking so long, this is so boring!~" I slumped a little in my seat, Ran did the same on my shoulder. I raised my eye brow at the way my bags, wondering how I'm going to be able to find a place to fit all my stuff, and more importantly a place to have a nights rest. I was about to stand up to pick up my bags and look around for a place to stay but Ran yanked on my hair, harshly pulling me down.
"Ouch, Ran what was that for-" She glared at me for a good minute before whispering,
"~There close~" She kept a finger on my lips to prevent me from replying. "~Those annoying 'judges'~." True to that, a long sleek black limo pulled up and the judges stepped out. I let out a snicker, thankful at Ran. I never got rid of my bad habit of reverting to a 'vulnerable' state when I get shocked, so Ran informs me of people that are particularly aggressive.
"Miss Hina, come back to Easter immediately!" I let out a grin before taking out my favorite coin. She stepped back, her right hand clutching her hair- well, more like absence of hair.
"Heads I go, Tails I run." I flicked it, and what do you know. Its tails. I took a glance at my surroundings and muttered, "~Chara Change~" I grabbed my bags and I prepared to jump, but the familiar friction on the heels of my feet weren't there when I used Ran's jump. Instead, a more flowing, liquid-like feel was there. Just as I was to say 'Hop Step Jump' I saw a blue-colored light shining from my wrist, 'Miki?'
"~You didn't expect to jump to the skies, in the middle of the streets, with people watching, in Tokyo, the New York City equivalent, right?~" An all too familiar voice spoke. I bent my head slightly, using my bangs as coverage to my reddening face, I habit I never really got a chance to break, and I probably won't.
"Miki, I-" I started, but was cut off abruptly.
"~Now's not the time, let's go~" I nodded, for the first time I saw her clearly. She had changed, wow, she changed. The beret was gone, a mini top hat was placed on her head. Her hair was pulled into a loose side pony tail The blue hair curled and were a moody purple at the tips. Her attire changed to tight ripped leggings and a long sleeved white shirt with a black jacket that was long and form fitting. Her spade had a cracked design with a hole in the top left, like someone had shot a bullet at it.
"Miss Hina!" I was shot out of my daze and glared at the judge, I grabbed my bags and nodded at Ran and Miki. '~Just run head on to the crowd~' I paused and gaped at Miki, but her nodded in a such a reassuring way I agreed. I closed my eyes shut and here goes everything!
I expected to be bombarded with people but I just felt the cool wind flow through my hair. I slowly opened my eyes to find myself gliding around the crowd of people. I remembered a vague memory of Yaya, at her ballet studio. Ballet... BALLET? I took in a sharp breath when I found my smooth steps resembled a ballerina, well a more loose interpretation but still, since when can I dance, or have any form of balance for that matter? Then I remembered Miki... Since when can Miki dance?
"~Dance is an art too you know~" I heard Miki chuckle.
"Miss Hina!" Ugh that judge doesn't give up at all.
"And where do you think your going?" I stopped suddenly at the voice, my chara change became undone, I tumbled forward, squeezing my eyes shut, expecting the hard side walk floor to greet me... But the pain never came, instead I found myself in the arms of someone... The arms...THE ARMS? I jumped back, or at least I tried to, the arms had an iron grip to them.
"What happened to you, Amu?" I looked up to see sad eyes. Sad, uniquely purple, cat-like eyes.
"...Ikuto"

remember to check my profile, I have loads to say.
Chapter 4: Fourth Song
Chara Change Chara?
Ikuto,... IKUTO? I saw no cat ears on top of his head, so I should be able to get free right? Yup, I should be able to, but why do I feel so weak, so drained... My vision was getting hazed over, and I felt tight in my chest. It got tighter and tighter before I found that it was hard to breath. I briefly noted that the lighting was considerably darker, and the sound was considerably smaller. An alley? The narrow hall, the musky smell, and the brick walls justified to be so.
"~Amu... Help...~" I turned my head, which felt heavy to even move, and saw Ran holding Miki, protectively in her arms. Miki was zoned out, her eyes where lost in the muddy Grey-blue, her breath labored and harsh, her whole frame shaking. I looked over to where she was starring, and saw Yoru, looking away, starring at the floor.
"~...You, you bastard!~" Ran suddenly screamed, causing Yoru to tremble slightly, I was shocked at the display. I mean, sure Ran cursed from time to time because she got annoyed, but this time was different. Her face turn red, not because of happiness, or being embarrassed, but the raw emotion was evident in her eyes; anger. She suddenly turned to Ikuto, flying over to where I was; still trapped in his arms.
"~You, LET GO OF HER!~" She ordered, clutching Miki with one hand she fumed. Using her free hand, she shove him off of me, causing me to tumble backwards onto the floor. Ran's main power is being the strong one, the courageous one; the leader. I was beginning to see why I always thought of her as an older sister.
I could breath again, inhaling as much of the dirty air as I could, not caring of the burning sensation it gave my throat. As soon as I relieved that weak feeling that had dawned on me a few moments ago, I saw Miki was considerably better as well. I shot a puzzled glance at Ran who was still glaring at the two 'cats'. As if she could read my mind she spoke,
"~I...I was going to keep quite, to cause as little pain as possible, but you just had to ruin our peace!~" She spat at the two. I found my body trembling, a painful memory found its place in my eyes.
.
"Ikuto~!" A pink pig-tailed girl hopped onto a azure blue-haired boy, hugging him tightly.
"...Amu..." He spoke, carefully, and softly.
"...Ikuto?" She repeated, slightly worried at the usually teasing boy's reserved manner.
"I'm so sorry..." He held her close, so close, afraid that if he let go, she'd never come back.
"Iku-" She was cut off by a sharp pain that blossomed in her throat. When she reached up instinctively to try and nurse the pain, she found the cause of it. Hands. Ikuto's hands. She tried to speak, only to find it impossible, tears ran down her face, 'why?' she thought to herself, 'why?'
She was on the verge of passing out, the lack of air causing her usual flushed skin tone to turn a pale white alabaster.
Yoru Chara Changed with him, and he elongated on sharp nail. He slowly brought it to her bruised neck and drew a small, almost unnoticeable pattern, resembling long nails. He continually repeated the pattern around her neck.
.
I felt my eyes water, I looked up, through my bangs and saw the person who I put my trust into, and the person who broke all of my trust; Ikuto. He was also shaking, eyes wide,
"...I-...I did that?" He was mumbling, as if he couldn't believe it.
"~Yes, you did~" Ran spoke, she stared at my neck, my hand went up to the very spot subconsciously. "~You know why Miki reacted like this, Yoru?~" She hissed his name, "~Just like Amu, she loved you~" Yoru and Ikuto seemed shocked at this new bit of info. "~Yea, she used to, Amu and Miki, they deserve better than the likes of you!~" She tugged at my sleeve, snapping me out of my daze, she motioned me to follow, and I did. I grabbed my bag that had been flung carelessly on the floor and clutched the handle for something, right now I just needed something to hold onto.
.
.
.
"Such a bitch, right?" A dark figure spat. "Ikuto is mine! Not hers, Utau's or any other of those bitches, He's mine!"
"~Now, now Lalu, patience will be rewarded~" They stared at each other for a good minuted before the pair burst out laughing.
"Yeah right! Your just as sadistic as me! Besides, you are my true self, the lying, memory bending side of me! God you crack me up sometimes, Nayru"
.
.
.
.
.
.
Dun dun dunnn~! Don't you just hate Lalu? So if you're confused, Lalu wants Ikuto for herself and used her Chara to morph in some fake memories! O_O! The first Chara of Lalu is Nayru (pronounced Neh-ruu, like Nail with an accent).
For those of you who know about my current conflict with Chara Change Chara, it'll be solved as soon as the other 'copy' is deleted... waiting...waiting...WAITING...-sigh-
By the way, would you like some visual art to go with this story? I consider myself a pretty good mangaka so let me know ^_^.
Chapter 5: Fifth Song
Chara Change Chara?
I found an apartment a few blocks down, and with the emergency money in my wallet I saved covered just about everything. Well, just about... The hole in my heart, the thirst for something I could never achieve, would stay like that, forever. But I don't have to worry, I got Ran, and now Miki with me... He just had to rip it out didn't he, it wasn't enough I had been thrown away by the only people I ever trusted but he had to take that chunk of my heart with him. It's funny, he told me to move on but why hasn't he gave it back then? So he could torture me, mocking me at the fact that he was still here, and I could never love again with the link he selfishly made?
"~Ran...~" I turned silently to where Miki was. She was perched on the bed for what seemed like hours now, and three hours had actually had gone by. Her head was on Ran's lap, mumbling out her name here and there.
"~Miki, Amu, we need to talk.~" Ran spoke suddenly, I jolted a little at the sound of her voice. It was quiet, and strained, after all, she screamed a lot today.
"~You, you guys know about that memory we just saw?~" I had the painful experience once more as I thought back to the 'memory' she spoke of. Miki had one violent shudder before sitting on the bed next to Ran, listening, but unsure if she wanted to press on such a sensitive topic.
"~It's Nayru...~" I looked at her, puzzled by this 'Nayru character.' Miki looked at her, eyes widening with every passing moment. Suddenly I felt out of the loop, I nodded at her to continue. Ignoring the sharp pain that echoed in my head.
"~She's...I'll start from the top~." Ran motioned to Miki who was holding up a large canvas and was sketching intently on the white surface with pencil, then switching to water colors.
"~When eggs are crushed, we don't necessarily 'die'~" Miki spoke, dragging her paintbrush fluidly across the board. "~We just, stay in this place where everyone's dreams are created. Of course, we also change to how~" She pointed to me briefly and went back to her painting. "~You, as a person changes...~"
"~We met Nayru there, she was...different to say the least~" Ran took over for Miki who was too concentrated to talk. "~She was, much, much more broken than we were. You see, the place we go to every time we...'break', is called the Void. Usually it depends on how badly we were damaged and as soon as we recover we go back, of course we may change, but we never disappear.~"
"~But, Nayru, she refused to go back, more like she couldn't. Her partner... Apparently, she died of accident, but her dream to be a doll maker was so strong, Nayru lived on, but not really. She started to change, her once curly blond locks became a dark black, her features turned sharp and angular. Her personality became cold. We soon found out she was being eaten by the darkness~."
"~We thought she'd hopefully be free after the darkness was too much. After all, a partner-less Chara is unheard of, and her weakened state we could do nothing. We thought she had joined her partner once again, her egg was missing, and so was she. But she had this one distinct trait, she could re-write memories, implant any type and sort of memory she chose. And I suspect it was Naryu who did that. And most likely her new partner is also a victim of the darkness.~"
"~..., Sorry Amu! We had to act out that we were actually affected by Naryu if we didn't want Ikuto and Yoru to get hurt!~" The two suddenly proclaimed. I jumped.
"~When the illusion is broken by the revelation of the truth, it's painful, so that's why we waited before telling you, the side effects decrease with time...~" I suddenly remembered the sharp pain I had when Ran started to talk about Naryu.
Did that... No way, Ikuto? It wasn't true?... The only other thing that stood out was the fact that Ran and Miki knew it.
Miki stared at me, a questioning look on her face.
"Do I forgive you guys? Is that what you want to say to me, Miki?" I saw her nod, a swift one, but full of meaning.
"...Would I still be here if I didn't?" I know Ran and Miki because they are me, they wouldn't do anything without meaning, I shuddered at what the pain would have been if they told me when I first experienced the illusion, it still hurt and three..., THREE HOURS passed! And there's still some pain. Then I suddenly realized,
"What about Ikuto?" I blurted out.
"~Yoru was oh-so-good at acting with Miki...~" Ran spoke, a smirk playing on her lips.
"~Ran!~" Miki flushed a pink shade all over and threw a pencil at her.
"~Owww~" Ran moaned when the pencil hit her head.
Miki grinned her lopsided grin and went back to work on , whatever her painting was going to be.
"~So this takes care of that?~" Ran spoke, rubbing at the tender spot on her head.
"What about Nayru-" Miki cut me off
"~We'll see her when we see her~" Miki drawled.
"~Sooooo?~" Ran pressed.
"I guess so...?"
"~Good, because we're going back first thing tomorrow morning~." I stared at Ran, my mouth slightly opened in shock, but what?
"~Remember? We came here for one thing, well actually two, but first of all we need money don't we? And we have a contract with Easter, if you want to pay the release fee, do as you wish but, you'll probably be paying those debts off the rest of your life.~"
I froze, damn it! I forgot about that stupid release fee!
"~Besides, we have an apartment now so shelter can be checked off. Food is to be supplied at Easter and we can be closer to our goal.~" Ran skipped onto by shoulder and whispered, "~To get closer, to I-Ku-To~"
I nearly burst out in laughter, and flushed in a bright red, momentarily forgetting all the bad things that happened, all the fake pain I saw from those 'memories'. The only reason I came back to Japan, was for the takoyaki I dearly missed and happened to get signed to Easter, which I thought, 'why not?'. But this was just like Ran, once she gets pissed off, she gets pissed off.
"~It's done!~" I turned to see Miki holding up a painting that said, "~When ever your sad, beat the crap out of the person who dared disturbed you!~" In tiny scrawl at the bottom. A large takoyaki was painted right in the middle. "~Don't forget!~" Was also written with an arrow pointing to the cluster of takoyaki.
I saw Ran and Miki 'thumbs-up' and me, I felt the corners of my mouth twitch.
I smiled, a true genuine smile. I know the 'old' Amu wouldn't ever be able to handle this. But now I can. I don't have to sulk at everything in my way. Just kick it out and eats some Takoyaki while your at it.

Yea, the story was getting a bit to depressing for me. I like the idea of a teasing but strong Amu so I added a little twist there.
Next up is when Amu, Miki, and Ran go to Easter and get signed for her first job. (BTW there is a poll about this...).
Warning: I'm not good at consistent updates TT^TT.
Possible Spoiler: Mizuki Lalu is NOT an oc. (Nayru is an Oc however.)The name is original but the actual character is a real character in Shugo Chara O_O. Well, I'm not sure on who specifically but I personally hate OCs, OoC I'm okay with but, OC's,...not so much-.- But I knew I wanted someone as the aid in the story line so I decided to look through the history of Shugo Chara to find the right character to play the role. She's masquerading for now, I suppose. I have an idea but I'm still working on it.. Shocked ya didn't I xP.
And on another note, Reviews are like candy, I swear I could live on them xD. Plus, Candy is sweet so sweets for the sweets xD.
Chapter 6: Sixth Song
Chara Change Chara?
"No No NO!"
"You're doing it all WRONG!"
"Do REALLY want this job?"
Harsh comments were thrown about, echoing in the large, much too large, dance studio. Despite it's size, the interior decorating was actually quite humble in a way. Large mirrors, a thick red curtain, a wooden floor and to the front, a desk and three chairs. Two of them which were currently seated to the , and I quote, 'oh so wonderful star pupils'.
The third chair was on its side, knocked over on the floor. The dance instructor, at least that's what she proclaims herself to be, threw it down on a fit of rampage. She was currently yelling at 39 girls who each had a circular button pinned on their shirts with their corresponding number. All of them were in the round two auditions. They all looked nervous and scared, heck, who knows what I'd do in front of that harpy of a 'dance instructor'.
"~Why don't you find out?~" I let out a yelp at the sudden voice. I cursed at Ran and myself before ducking down, trying to hide myself in the folds of the curtain. Yup, curtain. I was hiding in a curtain. I peered out to see if I was caught but no seemed to notice anything, not even the siblings did. Which was strange as they always seemed to catch me.
"~Well of course they wouldn't, this curtains basically sound proof~" Miki muttered, rubbing the fabric between her hands.
"~But why are we hiding?~" The two spoke in unison. "~We also have that button.~" Miki grabbed the number 40 button from my bag and waved it as if I was oblivious to the fact.
"I know that, but..." I paused sneaking another glance at the group. "Why are they dancing?"
I signed up for the singer job if I remember correctly, I thought back to the registration form, yup. The box next to singer was definitely checked.
"~I don't know but I don't really care, I'm good at dancing...~" Miki beamed. "~But I have no stamina... but Ran can help out in that area~"
"What?"
"~-sigh- Amu, I am you,~" Ran pointed to herself, then she grabbed Miki, "~We are you,... wait, I always wanted to try this...~"
Ran got that glint in her eye that meant she was experimenting and I always ended up as her guinea pig... I shuddered at the vinegar incident.
"~It's good for your voice!~" Ran held up a cup of liquid that smelled all to similar to vinegar to my face.
"...What...?" I eyed her.
"~Drink~" She spoke, with a innocent smile...yea right.
- 5 minutes later-
"~What happened?~" Miki gasped at the twitching figure on the ground. Yea, that twitching figure was me, and guess what Ran said?
"~After effects of too much vinegar.~"
"w-w-Wait!"... too late TT^TT.
"~Chara: Ran, lock in~" Ran spoke with a smirk.
"~Change~" My hair pin glowed that nostalgic pink light."~Change~"
"~Chara: Miki, lock in~" Miki chuckled and winked at me.
"~Change~" Then, the hair pin was engulfed in a blue light.
"~Duo Chara Change~!"
"~Chara Change Chara Lock:2~"
The hair pin went in a frenzy of blues and pinks until a purple color took over. Ran's signature heart and Miki's Signature spade were clasped into my hair. The hair tie pulled my hair into a side pony tail and when I grabbed my hair by instinct I gasped. On my wrist was in clear scrawl,
C.C.C. L2 RM
It was on a bracelet I don't remember ever owning and ever putting on for that matter but I didn't have much it to question it as another, much harsher glaring light came into my field of view. The curtain I thought in shock. It was pulled away, revealing my hiding spot.
"~(Apparently our light show gave it away)~"
Yeah, apparently it did.
"Oh look who came to join us, Miss. 40" I was about to stand up but froze mid-way when I found my clothing had changed too. Instead of my usual attire, it was replaced by a long sleeve shirt that reached right above my knees and a pair of ripped leggings underneath. Black sneakers completed the outfit.
"(Ran!)" I shouted in my mind.
"~(Yes?)~" I did a double take at the extra voice.
"(Miki?)"
"~(What?)~"What, WHAT?
"(WHAT? Explain, right now!)"
"~(Look, we don't really have the time right now)~"
"(What do you mean we don't have time! we... oh)" I gulped nervously at the sudden presences that was glaring at me. I'm still in the Studio. I slapped myself mentally that I forgot that fact.
"Well, Miss. Number 40 let us see how high your dance skills must be for you to decide to skip our audition, twice." She hissed at me with an arrogant tone.
I bit my lip, I so close to a mental breakdown over here!
"~(Amu, we'll take it from here)~"
.

A/N: Hey my lovelies xD. Ehee heh heh _. *nervous glances* Ummm I know I haven't updated for a while, I've been getting some messages I could live with out so yeah T^T. Any whoo~ For all those who voted, AMU'S JOB IS GOING TO BE … complicated(?). XD, Actually I know how her jobs going to go about but it'll be a nice loooong chapters until her true job is revealed xD.
Now, all of you now I'm a horrible multi tasker so updates aren't that frequent TT^TT, but if you want to know about the basic outline about Amu's jobs, IM me n I will tell the first few xD Don't worry no spoilers, just enough to get you interested (I hope -.-').
And to my readers from my earlier fanfic writing times, do you remember my Gakuen Alice FanFic 'Did You Really Forget?". I'm not sure if anyone remembers that story so I'm hesitant on re uploading/ continuing it? But guys, did you really forget? (Ironic, isn't it -.- T^T)
Chapter 7: Seventh Song
Chara Change Chara?
I took a deep breath before walking to the center of the stage. Suddenly, the stage felt too big, my legs too short, my heart started to beat with haste and I became aware that the gazes I was targeted with was filled with more malice then usual.
"~(Whoa, take a breather there Amu)~" Ran spoke in a amused tone and I can swear I hear Miki giggling in the background.
"(Easy for you to say, I don't know what the heck you two did but I feel the same! The stage fright didn't disappear at all!)" I shot back.
"~(That's because you haven't done a Chara Change in a long time. Remember, when you Chara Changed all that was different outwardly was your hair pin? When you drew that portrait, did you feel like your mind or personality changed in any way?)~"
"(But then, how does that explain my outburst on the first day of school?)" I felt blood rush to my cheeks in at the memory, though the resentment and hate followed soon after the thought.
"~(Skills.)~ The two countered. "~(To put it bluntly, all the enhancements are focused on your skills in specific areas when your in Chara Change.)~"
"(But if I was more skillful, and I should be right now, why am I ...uh.. you know... FREAKING OUT?)" I was on the verge of hysteria as the dance harpy clucked her tongue, signaling for me to start.
"~(Remember yesterday? At the the side walk? You danced through the crowd like it was nothing, just... you know what? Lets do this. Hear the music?)~" I murmured a yes when I heard the music start playing, echoing through the room. "~(What's the first thing you thought of when you heard it first play?)~"
"(A break up.)" I whispered almost instantly. The music was upbeat but the lyrics filled the room with questions of 'why are you like this?' and 'it hurts?'
"~(Then let that be your guide, and DANCE)~" Miki spoke in an excited tone, obviously happy with the chance to dance.
Then I saw it. The dance moves played like a moving picture in my head, it was me in that motion picture. It's a strange feeling, like on the brink of having a vision of the future but not quite that either. But I know one thing for sure, I got the dance routine down.
"~(It's my turn now.)~" Ran chimed in. "~(We forgot to mention this but, in Dual Chara Change, you can only unlock our powers one at a time, so now that you've gotten over Miki's hurdle, it's my turn.)~"
"(You kind of forgot to mention EVERYTHING! Seriously I-)" My inner rant was cut off by a abrupt halt in the music and a arrogant voice screeching in.
"If you can't do this, why bother hmmm? Cool N' Spicy Entertainment really doesn't know talent from the dirt it seems. If you're their best talent, they must really have a bad eye at this."
"What, did you say." I felt the anger rush to my clenching fists, "Don't you dare insult CNSE ever again!" Everyone seemed to be taken aback by my outburst, even those siblings let out a shock expression onto their faces. Cool N' Spicy Entertainment was founded by my dad and later given to my mom when he fell ill. Soon after, the CNSE got into financial debt. Sure, my mom was good as an editor of the articles printed, but she just wasn't suited for being a CEO. Then my dad's condition grew worse. We put a halt in CNSE and used the money to pay for my dad's medical expenses. My younger sister stayed back in America to earn some cash with her fashion line while I came here, to somehow make some money. And what's the fastest way to gain money?
Easter. The answer was plain and simple, Easter is currently the top Entertainment Company in Japan. And that was enough reason for me. But I have no intention of staying if they plan to insult my parents every time they see me.
"~(Amu, take another breather, don't make rash decisions.)~" Ran murmured in my head, the words echoing in my ears. "~(Don't give up your one shot at getting the chance for money just cause of some old harpy.)~" Miki added. "~(Use that emotion against her, I've seen her dance a couple of times behind the curtain and I've got to say, she has probably never seen anyone as good as you.)~"
"(Wha-)"
"~(Don't try to play dumb, I've always seen you dancing along to your favorite beats Amu.)~" Ran started.
"~(Yeah, in CNSE you may have been just the sound developer, but you have the talent, go for it Amu.)~" Miki edged on.
"~(And remember, you're not alone. You'll never be alone.)~" They spoke in unison, loud and clear.
"Start the music." I surprised even myself at my voice, it had a bold daring hint to it, a voice I'd never imagined I'd have, especially in the middle of a stage.
"Fine." The harpy muttered.
…*
It's a strange experience. I felt like I could feel the music notes, taste the lyrics, and swallow the rhythms whole. My body moved to the beats, deviating here and there, but stayed pretty close to the envisioned routine I had a few moments before. When the song was coming close to a close, I slowed down my dance steps slightly, before speeding up abruptly and ending on a powerful note. Impactful. An important aspect my dad would always say, 'You want them thinking about you even after the performance is long over, imprinted in their minds. Wow them.'
And it did, especially to two certain people. One blond, and the other blue. But of course, the two's thoughts however was on entirely different notes.
One with anger and jealousy, and the other with attraction, and... a strong pang of fear, of what is going to come later on.
HIIIIIIIIIIII~ xD
It's been a while huh -.-', sorry about that TT^TT. I've been working on some other things like my new story (Gakuen Alice) I posted a while ago, as well as another story (Fairy Tail) that's coming up ^_^!
...*= I do have a particular selection of songs I felt fit to the music Amu was dancing to but I didn't want to put it up as it's Korean and the song looses some of it character when translated. (If you know what I mean -.-'). To end on a good note, expect a more AMUTO in the following chapter.
Another note, don't worry, Utau isn't going to turn all villan-y, shes just jealous at Amu, nothing too evil...yet...
Another Another note, check out my profile on Saturdays at least once every few months for any info regarding my stories.
Sort of a Teaser-y thing: Jealous and overprotective Ikuto and an almost to naive Amu xD. Expect OVERFLOWING EMOTIONS next xD, annnnnd drum rollENTER SKY JACK xD! (You see where this is going /).
PLEASE REVIEW XD, Kukai is going to need some love~ (Yes, he is one of my bias, next to AMUTO of course so he's going to be mega-awesome ^_^).
Chapter 8: Eighth Song
Chara Change Chara?
"Hey King, I finished securing Lovely Skye, I'll be heading home now~"
The line repeated itself multiple times, echoing through the walls of Tadase's head. The constant string of words resulted in him calling an immediate meeting of the guardians. Nagihiko, Yaya, and Tadase sat down in their respective seats while Lalu leaned on the top frame of her chair in a bored manner. Tadase looked around for a bit before speaking,
"As you know, we are all in either our 2nd or 3rd year of high school, and this meeting concerns our Jack." He spoke, glancing around for the reactions to come.
"Jack...Jack?" Lalu pursed her lips and repeated the foreign name back and fort, obviously out of the loop.
"You're...You're joking, but that would-!" Nagihiko stuttered.
"Really? Kyaaa, Kukai is coming back!" Yaya screamed, jumping up and down.
"K-Kukai...Jack...Who?" Lalu did not like not knowing what was going on, she loved knowledge, it helped her use it when...needed.
"Are you an idiot? You know Kukai just as well as the rest of us, what do you think he'll do when he finds out about Amu?" Nagihiko yelled back.
"Well I don't! Care to let me in the loop?" Lalu flared.
"But...NO! You're wrong! Kukai loves me! Not her!" Yaya retorted, ignoring the enraged Lalu.
"HELLO~? Are you guys DEAF? Who the hell is Jack, and the same goes for this Kukai character, who the hell are they?" Lalu spat. The three broke out into a verbal fight. Insults being thrown around the room. The only quiet one was Tadase, his headache only grew worse, rubbing his temples he bent his head slightly and squeezed his eyes shut. 'This never happened before. Why-' He stopped himself there, he was why. He was the reason why not a day goes by with out a fight in the Royal Garden. He was why Lalu came to be so arrogant and demanding as he let her mistakes go slate free. He...he was why she left. Now everything is coming back to bite him in the ass.
Kukai and Tadase had this rivalry for Amu in their elementary days. But only a fool would be blind enough to not be able to see the click between the two. Sure Amu was close to Tadase, but it was just so awkward compared to when she was with Kukai. And the darkness with in Tadase swelled, he had to get rid off Kukai so he did.
Kukai was sent to a different Guardians unit in the northern area of Japan. 'Lovely Skye' was the unit's name. With the increase of trouble in Japan, the guardians decided to branch out, sending one member of the already existing unit throughout Japan in hopes of securing a larger defense zone. It was a good enough excuse. Tadase sent Kukai out, to never return. Kukai was offered a position as King, the leader of Lovely Skye. All in courtesy of Tadase's attempts of blocking him out forever. He was sure it would work, it was King's chair! However, Kukai did the unthinkable, he rejected. Why? Because, he had a pink haired angel waiting for him back home...
...
It was 5pm, the sunlight became a bloody yellow, and the fighting ceased in the Royal Garden, but the tension remained. Lalu was somewhat up to speed to who Kukai was, and why he was coming back. But then again, so many secrets were being kept in the dark. Then, at the strike of 5:15, a large bang vibrated through the walls of the Garden.
"Hey Hey Hey~" A smooth voice spoke. Kukai. The three did a double take, the last memory of Kukai was when he was still a child, but now, he was different, to say the least.
Kukai's hair grew somewhat longer, the caramel locks twisting in short curls around the base of his neck. A black jacket and deep blue pants that resembled a uniform was worn on his tall frame. A bright red arm band with the words 'Earl' was printed in bold.
Tadase was about to question the reason for him being here but another voice interjected.
"Is this the place you were talking about?" A baby like voice muttered. Behind Kukai, a small girl peered out. She had long curly blond locks, a black head band, and similar attire to Kukai but a skirt was worn in place of the pants. On her left arm, an almost identical band was worn, but instead of Earl, it stated 'Lady.'
"I do not wish to reside here." Another voice spoke. He had emerald hair and a pair of spectacles with the same uniform as Kukai. However, his arm band had 'Knight' written on it.
"Hey~ Come on guys~" Kukai laughed, his eyes looked around for the head of pink hair he had grown to miss over the years. "Come out Joker~" He called, waiting for his angel to come dashing out from her hiding place. Except, instead of his angel, another stepped towards him.
"You are?" Kukai asked at the girl.
"You called me so I stepped forward." Lalu stated simply.
"Huh?"
"Joker, you called the Joker."
"Yeah, OH! So you know where Amu is? Come on tell me~" Kukai smiled widely, he would finally see Amu again.
"So sorry, but it seems you don't know what happened do you?" Lalu smirked.
"Lalu." Tadase warned, he knew Kukai enough to know what would happen.
"'Amu'" Lalu stressed the name, in disgust, "is no longer here, she's lost her Charas so she was deemed unsuitable for guardian duties."
"LALU!" Tadase yelled, he opened his mouth to scold the girl but found his air ways suddenly cut off. Kukai. Kukai was choking him.
"Hey, Tadase, what is that girl over there saying." He spoke in a low dangerous tone.
"I'm saying that AMU is GONE, and I'm the new Jo-" Lalu was cut off. A harsh wind sliced through the garden, cutting gashed into trees and shattering the windows.
"You," His voiced cold and harsh, "Shut up." Kukai's eyes turned a pitch black color as he looked over Tadase, "How could you? We agreed that we would fight for her on equal grounds! But what? Did she reject you? So are you the only one who could have-"
"SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!" Yaya screamed out. She was holding it in, she really was, but at the constant mention of the reason why she couldn't be with her love angered her. "She became incompetent for guardian duties so we kicked her out! She doesn't have Charas anymore!"
The air calmed, but the temperature dropped heavily.
'Oh no.' Kukai ran out from the Royal Garden...Or the remains of it and ran straight to the place he knew he could find her...his angel.
...
The other two who came in with Kukai stayed, unmoving. They hurt Kukai and that could not do. He was their Earl and he was the one who saved them after all.
"Let me introduce myself, I'm Lady and this is Knight" The blond one spoke, dragging her gaze around the room, "And we don't know who you are or who this Amu is but we don't care."
"But you hurt our Earl, and we can't have that know can we..." The one with the glasses finished.
…
Kukai was out of breath, his chest was burning, his legs were shaking, his vision blurry, but he wouldn't stop, no, he couldn't stop. He didn't lower his running pace, nor did he heed any of the traffic signals, but he didn't care. He need to get there, to that park.
Louisa.
Louisa Park, the park Amu would always go to when she was distressed. Kukai would always find her there, crying alone in the fifth bench from the row of Sakura trees. When he got there, his legs wobbled and leaned against a tree for support. His gaze was locked onto the nostalgic bench and true to his memory, someone was there, hunched over, shaking. Crying. Kukai forced his feet to move and little by little he got there. He tapped the persons shoulder, and pushing all doubts from his mind, he waited to see those big doe eyes once more. The person on the bench was wearing dance wear, had long pink and black hair and was much more grown up than the Amu in Kukai's memory but somehow he knew. That this was indeed Amu, and once he saw those teary eyes he collapsed onto her.
"W-what the heck!" Came the shocked voice, which was indeed Amu's. Here she was, crying her eyes out, and some one just falls on her? She searched for an alarm, a noise maker, something, while calling out to Ran and Miki who weren't responding.
"Amuletta..." Kukai buried his head into the crook of Amu's neck, calling her by his nick name for her, snaking his arms around her waist. Doing everything he could to make her remember.
"...Kai?" Amu whispered, uncertain, hopefully but reserved. As if, if she got to close, she would get hurt again.
"I'm so sorry, I should have known... How could I be so stupid! You called me that day, but I just shut you out when you-" Kukai stopped, not quite sure how to word this, "when you said you lost yourself..." He finished, gripping onto her tightly.
Amu struggled at first, but found herself leaning into the sudden warmth, the almost forgotten warmth. But snapped back to reality, no, she'd get hurt again. She fought at the arms holding her, struggling to break free. But Kukai held on, ignoring the hits, the scratches, the kicks, that Amu was unintentionally giving him. Only when he let out a groan of pain did Amu stop. She was so into getting away that she didn't notice the damage she was causing him. She froze, she saw Kukai clearly for the first time. He had grown beautifully, but now he had a split lip, multiple scratches, and pale bruises forming on his skin. Gasping, Amu tried to get away, though this time more gently.
"Do it again." Kukai whispered. Amu looked up in horror, 'What did he just say?'
"Do it as much as you like, take it out on me, let it out, because no matter what," Kukai finally released his hold on Amu and knelt on the ground, "I'll never betray you." He took Amu's hand and kissed her palm softly.
"Are you some kind of sick freak? Do you enjoy pain? You bastard!" Amu raised her hand high in the air, aiming of Kukai's face. He visibly tensed, awaiting the blow, but the harsh hit never came. Instead, a gentle touch trickled down in liquid form. Tears. Amu threw herself around Kukai's neck, and whispered so that only he could hear, "I'm warning you..., if you even think of betraying me,... I'll kill you." Her words were harsh, but her voice quivered.
Kukai only smiled at her, "The day I betray you, will be the day I die."
"Ikuto? Why are you crying Nyaa~?"
"It's nothing, go back to sleep Yoru...go back to sleep..."
Hey Hey Hey~
So I know, horrid update sorry TT^TT. Okay, so I was in the mood for writing some serious jealousy, angst, drama, love, scenes so I rushed Kukai entrance xD. Kyaaaaa, I think I outdid myself with Kukai here xD So coooool Kyaaaaaa *fan girling* So I also added in two other characters, (I think it's probably obvious... Rima and Kairi~~~The two also have an underlying plot line so they are pretty important, not like a minor one shot deal or something like that~) So, I wrote this in one sitting so its sort of jumbled so forgive on that part but everything is going to be explained as the story progresses. But I think it's getting lengthier, don't you? O_o? While rethinking this, the characters are in their late-ish teens so I tried kicking it up a notch as it just seemed some what naive for their age.
Big Question: Why was Amu crying in the first place? Why was Ikuto crying? To be explained in the next chapter PLUS the drama of a love triangle finally forms xD, MAJOR tug-of-war between Ikuto and Kukai for Amu coming soon~
P.S. I'm warning you again but, I literally write my chapters in usually one sitting. And I just plan out the ideas as I go. Yea that chapter up there, literally just thought of it as off 10:04PM 3/31/2011. So, it may get confusing so thus the delays. I think of the ideas in bits and just mush 'em all together in a chapter so eheehee -.-; Bad habit, I know.
Do you like it? No? Either way...Tell me...with a REVIEW~
Chapter 9: OMG GUYS OVA HERE!
YO! *cough cough* oh my lord, look at all the dust that has been collected in this poor account OAO! Haha, well~~~~ my lovely little fruit cups I AM BACK!

Ahhh yes, I STILL haven't gotten a working personal use computer and I am now going into the 2nd year of my high school career… -_- ANYWAYS… I don't know why, but I've gotten a sudden urge to begin writing again :3 I am thinking of re-doing my stories as my writing style has changed… dramatically. And for some of you, you may like it, and some of you may absolutely loathe it, however this is how I plan on executing my stories from hence forth!
