"Tadase-kun!" Hikaru called sweetly. Il laughed, watching from a distance.
"Oh, Hikaru!" Tadase said in relief. "I really need a break from... Them."
Then Hikaru said the word that struck fear into every one of the Guardians.
"Prince!"
Tadase slowly looked up, and a crown appeared on his head. "What?"
"Prince!" Hikaru repeated. "You are the prince. Prince, prince, prince."
"Do not dare call me the prince!" Tadase roared. "I am nothing short of a king! Now get me some tea!"
In the distance, Il laughed."Ooh, this keeps getting better and better!"
Hikaru snatched the crown off of Tadase's head and ran away. "Bet you can't catch me!" He threw Tadase's precious golden crown into a bush and ran straight into Nadeshiko.
"Hikaru!" she said in surprise. Hikaru frowned. "How do you know my name? We've never met before.
"Well- I - um..." Nadeshiko stammered. "That doesn't matter!"
Il's and Hikaru's eyes gleamed at the same time. "Dancing is stupid!"
Nadeshiko twitched. "WHAT THE HECK?!" She spun around a bloodstained naginata, and Il wondered if she had gone too far.
"I'M GONNA KILL YOU! I'LL SLICE YOU UP INTO LITTLE BITS! COME BACK HERE, YOU LITTLE- "
They ran around the entire school, and Nadeshiko caught a glimpse of Amu's surprised face. "Oh, Amu...! Uh..."
Amu glared at her, her eyes in the shadows. (You know, it's an anime effect.) "Nadeshiko... Temari..."
Hikaru and Nadeshiko gulped.
