Mm 'k, I'm using this story to warn people if they don't review stories, odds are I'll never have the motivation to ever update them. Just a little warning, and that goes for this story too.

Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo Chara! or any of the characters used in this, except for the occasional Tom Riddle [random character, me and IzzyDizzyLi call all of the unimportant characters Tom Riddle] and a rare oc or two.


I yawned, waking up from my normally weird position on my bed. My pink hair was twisted all over my head, and my eyes made me look as if my brain was eaten by zombies. Here's the main point: I didn't look very well. Truth was this Summer had been really crappy, I really was not a happy camper. When the next school semester started I wouldn't be a guardian anymore and might not get to see my friends as much, plus I have to leave Yaya too. The only good thing out of this was that I'd be reunited with Kukai, but another thing bothered me... Would Ikuto go onto college? Not that I'd ever admit it, but life would be kinda weird without him there to bother me.. I shook my head, nothing about that cat! I helped him and now it's over, I'm done with him as far as I know! Now, it's just me and Tadase...., Kukai...., Nagehiko.... I started to drool, but then quickly snapped out of it. "Just Tadase, just Tadase! Need to stay focused on one guy!" I said to myself, a little too loudly. My charas heard me babbling and peeked out from their eggs.

"Nene~, Amu-chii~?" Ran asked first, looking dead tired.

"Hm?'' Had I said that out loud? Crap... "Oh, nothing, nothing.. Just thinking what it will be like next semester."

"Oh, really desu~? I haven't really thought about it at all...," Suu said, sighing.

Dia nodded and said, "Oh yeah, right, You won't have Yaya there, and the Guardians will be passed onto others."

I nodded sadly, thinking if there would even be another Joker. Wasn't I chosen just because I had three charas? "Oh well, better go downstairs and get something to eat," I groaned, yawning and slipped out of bed and into the floor.

"She must still be drowsy," Miki inquired, watching me squirm toward the door.

I slumped down the stairs, looking around before I went into the kitchen to explore my cabinents, until my Mom called me into the living room.

"Ne~, Amu-chan! Your school director gave me this pahmplet for some camping trip, would you like to go? It's free for last year students!" my Mom said happily. "I think you need to go, you've been quite glum since school ended so I think you could use the boost!"

"Do I have to?" I groaned and leaned against the wall, almost falling asleep there.

"Yes! It's a good expirience, plus you don't go camping often, so it's a good opportunity to go free!" she said, imaginary flowers around her. Was she making me go just because it was free? Who knew, but it seemed like it..

"Ugh fine, when is the bus leaving?" I asked, half yawning and the other half talking.

"Tomorrow, Amu-chan! Eat breakfast and get packed, you must be ready!" she said, sparkles in her eyes.

I sighed and moaned until I couldn't anymore, why couldn't I do this tonight? Or tomorrow morning? Why this morning when I was still a day and a half away from going? Well, there was no arguing with Mom, usually what she says goes.

"Bye bye, Amu-chan!" my Mom said, waving by with Ami in her arms, also waving.

"Bye, shister! Be back shoon,'k?" Ami said, smiling as big as her face would allow.

"Ah~! Don't talk to any stranger boys, especailly if they're way older than you! Don't forget, don't drink from other people! A-an-and don't drink anything from parties, wait! Scratch that, never go to parties!" my Dad frantically instructed, doing all sorts of weird motions including a very weird wave 'bye'.

"Ahehe... b-bye guys, and I'll remember that.. D-Dad..," I said awkwardly, waving a very low good bye as I headed toward the school, where the bus was supposedly running. Once I got there I was greeted warmly by Tadase, him and his beautiful smile... I gawked at it until I heard something way too familiar...

"Ah~, she's staring," somebody said near where I was, whenever I heard that my face went a light pink.

I whipped around and let my mouth hang open. "Why are you here!!!???" I screeched, pointing accusingly at him. Him who? Ikuto him...

Ikuto shrugged, "Tsukasa told me to be a chaperon or something," he said, stepping closer to me.

My already pink blush brightened, so I crossed my arms and swung my body around so that it was again facing Tadase. "You're the one that needs to be chaperoned!" I shot at him from behind, bold move Amu... bold move.., I tohught to myself sarcasticaly.

Ikuto just laughed at me and rubbed my head. "Oh, you wouldn't believe the trouble you get in, perverted kid."

I sulked as he pointed this out, oh why did my Mom have to make me go on this trip!!?? Is it too late to go back??
