AN/ I did this out of complete and utter boredom. If you don't like it, don't read it. If you have an idea, it would help me so much! Please leave anything by reveiwing! I also have another story going on right now, so if I take a while with updates it's mostly cause of that. And now, let's have Yoru do the disclaimer! Who should do the next one?
Yoru: Shay here dosen't own Shugo Chara! She dose get Yasu, Sayuri, Naomi, and Kimiko though, nya! Although, Kimiko is based on me, nya.
Ikuto: And why is Yasu based on me?
Me: Yoru, shut up and I'll give you catnip.
Yoru: Okay!
Me: Enjoy!
Ikuto: She never answered my queastion.
As the three ran around, a fourth watched. The oldest was the younger two's favorite. The blond little girl was the oldest one's little sister. The little blond boy was the youngest and a family friend.
The one watching was an odd little girl. She was the age of the youngest, but was noticeably taller than the oldest. She had blue hair in the same style as the blond girl, only longer. Her favorite tree branch was up higher than even the blue haired boy could climb. She was unseen by the others and she liked it like that. Or at least that's what she told herself. The truth was that her dad didn't want her cousins to know that she existed.
"He said that I was different, so I have to stay away. I don't think that's fair, do you?" she whispered.
"Nope! Not at all! They should at least know you, even if not as their cousin." came a reply.
"Yeah, totaly not fair!" came another.
"Well, it may be true. You do have us!" said yet another.
"Yeah, I do have you guys. That's why I don't go nuts from lonleiness. Kimiko, Naomi, Sayuri, you guys rock!" The blue haired girl said softly.
"Akiko-chan!" the voices yelled as three little floating charas came out from behind the girl to hug her. She let out a loud 'oof' as they hit her ribcage.
"Hey what was that?" said the blond girl. Utau, Akiko knew her name was.
"I don't know," said the blue haired boy "Let me see."
Akiko knew his name too. Ikuto, the oldest of the three, had the same blue hair and eyes as she did. She knew that this was the case, since she looked exactly like her mom and he looked just like her mom's twin brother, his father.
"Be carepull onii-tan!" the little one said. Tadase, she thought.
Ikuto was climbing quickly up to her branch. She wasn't sure if she should let herself be found or not.
"Hey you! Get down from there! I can see you so don't act like your not there." He yelled. To late.
"Fine, I'll come down. Just don't tell anyone that you've met me. Ever. Got it?" Akiko said.
"Sure!" yelled the younger two.
"I guess so." said the oldest cautiously.
"Okay, now look out, tree boy." Akiko said.
"Tree boy?" he said, looking kinda angry.
Akiko was already jumping down by then. She landed on the ground with cat like reflexes, her blue pigtails blowing behind her. She stood with a smile on her face.
"Hello, I'm Yasu. I seem to be pretty bad at spying on people, considering tree boy here found me." Akiko said, using her middle name instead of her first.
"Hey, don't call Ikuto that!" Utau said.
"Yeah, don't call onii-tan dat!" Tadase said.
"Fine, then should I call him Ikuto-sempi?" Akiko questioned.
"Yes, if you don't mind." Ikuto said. Then he looked confused.
"Okay. Now what do I call you two?" Akiko said, though she knew their names.
"I'm Utau." she said.
"And I'm Tadase!" he said pointing to himself.
"Alright, so is Utau-chan and Tadase-kun okay?"
"Sure! But then you get to be Yasu-chan!" they said smiling.
"Okay, that's fine." she replyed.
"Now lets play!" Utau said.
"Hide-and-sheak!" Tadase said.
"Okay. Utau, why don't you seak?" Akiko said.
"Okay!" She said happily. She turned and started counting.
Tadase ran off and hid behind a bush. Ikuto grabed her arm and made her climb up a tree with him.
"Why did you say Ikuto-sempi?" He asked.
"Because you're older than me. Why else?" She said.
That took him by suprise. "Wait, so your younger than me?"
"Yeah. How old did you think I was?" she questioned.
"I don't know, I just thought that you were older than me."
"Well, I am also younger than Utau-chan and I think Tadasae-kun."
"Wait, so you may be younger than Tadase?"
"Yeah, depending on his birthday. And for someone his age, he is quiet intelligent." Akiko said, just wanting to freak Ikuto out.
"Here I come!" Utau yelled.
"What is wrong with him?" Kimiko asked.
"I don't know, and it's not like we can ask him." Sayuri said.
"Hey, guys, you wanna mess with him as much as I do?" Naomi asked the other two.
"Heck yeah!" they yelled.
"Follow my lead." Naomi said.
They floated over to his head. Naomi's purple figure taking the lead, with Kimiko's black/blue and Sayuri's silver following.
Naomi poked him on the cheeck, speeding back when he swatted at her. They giggled madly. After about a minute of bugging him in various ways, he looked at Akiko.
"Hey, after this, I told Utau and Tadase that I would play the violin for them. Do you want to stick around?" he asked.
Her eyes lit up. "Sure! I love music." she said.
"Really?" he asked.
"Yeah. Music is my last connection to my mother. She would sing every day for everyone to hear untill I came along. She died when I was born. Everyone says that I look just like her though." she smiled sadly.
"And what about your dad?"
"He's not around. I take care of myself. I don't have any free time, really, so I don't have friends, either. But I have got my cousins." she said perking up a bit.
"What are your cousins like?" he asked, with a bored tone and face.
"Well, they are my mom's twin brother's kids. The oldest son looks just like his dad, so we look kinda like twins. You would get along pretty well with him, I bet. And there is his little sister who looks like her mom. We all enjoy music. Then there is their little brother. He is my age but a lot shorter." she said.
"Sounds like you don't know much about them." he said.
"That's because they don't know who I am. They think me and my mom were family friends. They don't know that their dad had a sister because the two didn't get along anymore. They keep to themsevles even more than I do so we haven't really met." she said.
"Oh." was the last thing he said.
"Finally! I found Tadase, now we just have to find Ikuto and Yasu-chan!" Utau said.
"I guess that's my cue." Akiko said.
She lept from the branch she was on and onto the tree next to her, landing without a sound. She lifted a finger to her lips and smiled. She then fell backwards.
"Yasu!" he whispered.
He was about to jump after her, when he saw her land gracfully on the ground. She ducked behind a bush. She peered up at him smiling. She gave him a thumbs up, showing that she was fine.
"Yasu-tan!" Tadase cried. "I found you!"
"Yep, you sure did. I guess that means Ikuto-sempi wins." Akiko said.
"Cool." He said, dropping from the tree.
"Onii-tan is gonna play tha violin!" Tadase said to 'Yasu'.
"Oh really? Sounds fun." she said.
Ikuto went and picked up the case for the instument. He pulled it out and began to play. It was one of Akiko's favorite songs. She began to sing along at the same time Utau did. The melody was unique with two voices and the violin. Akiko watched Sayuri, Naomi, and Kimiko dancing around Tadase's head. He had started to dance along to the music aswell. Akiko took his hand and danced with him as she sang. It was the most fun she had had in years. But all good things must come to an end.
"Come back tomorrow, okay? Don't hide again Yasu-chan." Utau said, eyes sparkling from the half hour spent singing and dancing.
"I'll try. If I can't I will be here the day after for sure." Akiko replyed.
She gave Utau and Tadase a hug, before turning to leave.
"Wait, no hug for onii-tan?" little Tadase said.
"Well, I just thought that he wasn't much of a hugger." Akiko said.
Everyone looked at Ikuto.
"She's right. I'm not much of a hugger. But I guess I can handle one." he said.
Akiko walked over to her sempi and gave him a hug. He whispered something in her ear. She smiled and nodded slightly, so that he knew but the other two didn't. She knew what to do. She let go of him.
"Alright you guys, I'll see you later! Be nice to each other, and Tadase?"
"What?" he said.
"I'm going to be your age in three weeks." She said, then turned and dissappered into the sunset in the direction of the park, charas folowing. She was supposed to wait for Ikuto there, by her favorite slide. He wanted to tell her something, and it sounded like it was important, so there she waited.
(Akiko POV)
Then finally, at around eleven, I saw my blue haired sempi running to me.
"Finally. I thought you weren't going to show." I said.
"Well, the kids took forever falling asleep." he said.
"So what did you want from me? It kinda wierded me out at first." I said.
"After tomorrow, I won't be there, so you need to stay away. You look like me, so it would just put salt in their wounds." he said.
"Well, what if they need someone who can be there for them?" I reasoned.
He thought for a minute. He seemed to be arguing with himself.
"Fine. You can still see Tadase, but not Utau. At least for a little while. In a few years, if you still want to see her, then fine." he said.
"Where are you going?" I asked wondering if he and Utau were just moving.
"Don't really know, don't really care." he said, then he turned around and left.
That was years ago. Now, it's nothing but memories and a dream that keeps going on and on. Today is my first day at Seiyo Elementary school. I'm more nervous than usual because this is near where the dream takes place. I haven't seen Tadase, Utau or Ikuto since the day we met. Well, I still went there every once in a while, just to check up on little Tadase and Utau is famous now so I see her around on the screens, but never in person. Well, I better hurry up or I'll be late.
(Amu POV)
I walked into the room as usual. I sat down and tried not to hear the rumors that where going on around me.
"Amu-chan!" Ran yelled "I think there are more gaurdian charas here than usual!"
"She's right. There are definitly some new faces round here." Miki said.
"Desu!" Su added.
"Really? Well, do you think I should tell the other gaurdians?" I asked.
"Okay, class, settled down." the teacher said. "We have a new student today. Why don't you tell eveyone your name?"
The girl that walked in had the long blue hair, up in a style like the new artist Utau, only longer. She had blue eyes and looked like a girl version of the cat cosplay boy. I looked at her. She was a girl version of him! Well, she may be taller than him but still! I couldn't see her without picturing him. Then I saw her chara. There were three of them. One was a purple bat, one was a silver humming bird, and the last one was a black and blue cat! She even has a thing for cats like him!
"My name is Yasu Tsukiyomi. Everyone got that? Cause I'm not gonna repeat it." the blue haired girl said. "Where do I sit?" she asked the teacher.
"Next to Hinamori-san. Please raise your hand, Hinamori." the teacher said.
I raised my hand. I didn't really want the cat girl next to me, but there aren't any other seats in the room that where empty. She walked over to me and sat down in her seat. She looked over to me.
"You have them too? Dose anyone else here have them?" She asked me.
"Yeah, there are a few people who have them. Do you want to meet them? You can come with us after school. We meet in the Royal Garden after school today." Ran told her.
"How about you show me, Kimiko, and Sayuri where it is and we can take her after class? She has to talk to the teacher for a minute after." the bat said.
"Okay! Oh and I'm Ran, this is Miki and that's Su." she said.
"I'm Naomi, this is Kimiko(cat) and that is Sayuri(bird)." Naomi said.
"Let's get going. If we're going to show you guys how to get there and back, we need to go." Miki said.
"Okay!" said Sayuri. With that they floated/flew off.
(After class in the Royal Garden)
"So, where is this new girl?" Nadeshiko asked.
"I'm guessing that she's on her way here or still with the teach-"
"TSUKIYOMI! GET DOWN HERE YOU THEIVING CAT!" Tadase shouted.
"My, my, my, little Tadase. I didn't think that I looked that much like Sempi. Or mabey you are really calling me that?" said a clearly femmine voice. The new girl dropped from the tree Tadase was yelling at, her long blue pigtails flowing back behind her, revealing black, silver, and purple highlights. Her blue tail swished and her color streaked ears were obvious. "That hurts Onee-san."
"Y-y-yasu-n-neesan?" Tadase stuttered.
"Yep! I'm back!" She said posing.
"Yasu-neesan!" Tadase yelled, running to hug her. Since she towered over him it looked like a little brother hugging a much older sister.
"Um, do you mind filling us in?" Kukai said.
"Well, Yasu and I know each other from a long time ago! She dissapered for a while, but five years ago she saw me crying, and helped me feel better! Oh and Yasu-neesan, this is Kukai, Yaya Yuiki-san, and Nadeshiko Fujisaki-san." he said, pointing to everyone in turn.
"Wow! When did you get charas?" he said finally noticing them.
"I have had them since before we met. You just didn't notice." Yasu said smiling.
"So, you alredy know each other? That's cool. But how old are you, Yasu-chi?" Yaya asked.
"Same age as Tadase and Hinamori-san. I didn't get held back or anything. Honestly, I was the top of the class last year!" She said, pretending to be insulted.
"Wow, you're tall! How can you be that tall?" Kukai wondered.
"My mom. She towered over everyone, including her twin brother, untill about junior high school when her brother grew a bit. Then they towered together! Then everyone grew." Yasu laughed. "Although, I don't have a twin to tower with, even if just for a year or two." she said, kinda sadly.
"Wait, you and cat cosplay boy aren't twins? You guys look exactly like each other!" I yelled.
"Cat cosplay boy? Who's that?" Yasu asked.
"Ikuto Tsukiyomi. He had charactor changed when she met him and she didn't know about charas yet. Well, not really." Tadase explained.
"Oh, okay. We aren't twins. My mom and his dad are though!" She said.
"See? She isn- wait- WHAT? YOU GUYS ARE RELATED?" Tadase screamed.
AN/ Thank you for reading this!
Yoru: She only gave me two branches, nya.
Me: Well, that's all I had.
Ikuto: Will you ever tell me why Yasu and I are alike?
Me: I'm more likely to later. Why do you want to know?
Ikuto: She's weird. I was right to tell her to stay away. I mean, if she can live on her own, then why is she even in this story?
Akiko/Yasu: What did you just say, cousin? Or should I say do you want to die before you kiss Amu? Ya creep.
