A/N: Ok, I apologize for not updating this in... a long time? XD I don't even know how long it's been since I started this, but I was sick today and I didn't go to school so I got in the fanfic writing mood and was like "Hey, I think I have an Amuto fanfic still waiting for me to continue it!" and well, this is the result :D Hopefully I'll start updating this fanfic more often but I can't promise anything because I'm currently working on another Amuto fic with my friend, and that's the one I've been focusing on. Don't worry though, I'm sure I won't let this one die! (Even though I technically already did... =w=; )
I don't own Shugo Chara! If I did, Amuto would've happened already and Utau would get more love D:
R&R please!
Beep Beep Beep
The sound of the alarm clock ringing began. Amu shifted around in her sleep and moaned in discomfort
"Come on, just a couple more minutes!" she said moving back towards the alarm clock that seemed to be getting louder and louder. Amu forced her eyes open and glared at the alarm clock
"Stupid thing" she said reaching out and turning it off.
Yawning, she sat up in her pink covered bed. She rubbed her eyes and glanced around the room, trying to see if her Charas were up yet.
Apparently not.
Slowly, she continued to force herself to get up and get ready for another day of school. Walking into the bathroom she looked at herself in the mirror
"I have terrible bed head" she thought to herself. Quickly brushing her hair and her teeth she returned to the bedroom and began to put on her daily uniform, making sure she added all the accessories that helped her pull of her "Cool and Spicy" look that she was so well known for. Clipping her small, laced box to her belt she gently placed her sleeping Chara's eggs in and closed it.
"Amu-chan! Hurry up or you won't have time for breakfast!" Her mother called up from downstairs
"I know! I'll be down in a moment, Mama!" she replied. About to leave her room, she stopped in the bathroom for one last look in the mirror
"Whatever." She muttered before leaving.
Eating breakfast, she made her way to school and her day began like every other day. Classes were boring and nothing exciting happened. Finally, she was on her last class of the day, English.
"Today we'll be learning about some of the most famous poets!" Nikaidou announced in his usual happy tone. The class sighed but took out their books without a complaint. Amu gazed out the window, uninterested by any of the events they were learning. In the pit of her stomach, something told her that something was going to happen. She didn't know what, but she knew it was going to happen.
"Amu? Something wrong?" Miki, her blue spade chara asked looking at Amu with a soft worried expression
"Hm? Oh, no. It's nothing" she said putting on a fake smile. Before she knew it, the day was over and it was time to go to the Guardian meeting.
"Amu-chi!" a high-pitched voice called. Amu turned to see Yaya and Rima waiting for her outside of the classroom
"Hey" she said giving a small wave. Quickly putting her books in her bag, she joined them and they all began walking the Royal Gardens
"Ne, Amu-chan! Did you hear the news?" Yaya said, catching Amu's attention
"News?" she said tilting her head slightly
"Yea, apparently there have been a lot of reports of children going missing." Rima said apathetically, as though it was just something that happened every day.
"However all of the ones that are taken, are found a couple days later" Yaya added
"A lot of people say that even though they come back in one piece, they're a lot more quiet and apparently are completely different with their attitude!"
Rima nodded in agreement. Amu had a slightly shocked look on her face
"Do you think it's Easter? I mean, for all we know they could be taking the kid's eggs and then just tossing them aside" Rima and Yaya sighed
"We don't even know. Apparently none of the kids remember anything that happened to them, like their memories were completely erased when they were found." Rima replied.
Leaving the conversation at that, they arrived at the Royal Garden and took their places at the small table.
"Welcome, Hinamori-san" Tadase said softly as Amu took her place. Amu looked up and blushed softly. How she longed for him to call her by 'Amu', and notice her for the person she actually is and not Amulet Heart.
"Let the Guardians meeting begin" Nagihiko announced.
Time flew by as they talked about the regular things they dealt with everyday; students, new rules, upcoming events, and all the other works. Pretty soon, the meeting was over and the guardian's disbanded.
"See you tomorrow, Amu-chan!" Nagihiko called as he and the rest of the guardians left the school, heading in the opposite direction.
Amu gave a soft sigh
"Apparently nothing interesting is happening today" she said quietly to herself
"Don't worry Amu-chan, something will pop up eventually!" Ran said smiling at Amu. Amu smiled back and nodded
"Hopefully" she added underneath her breath.
Amu glanced up at the sky; the sun was starting to set.
"It's getting late, we should hurry home desu" Suu pointed out. Amu nodded and they began to quicken their pace
"Hinamori Amu" a deep voice called. Amu stopped and was about to turn around when both her arms were pulled behind her back and bound
"We need you to come with us" a man in a black suit said as he forced her over to a nearby van
"Amu-chan!" her charas called out as they were forced into a bag
"Ran! Miki! Suu! Somebody he-"her cry for help was cut off by a hand wrapped around her mouth.
"Mmph!" she cried, wiggling around trying to shake free of the grasp. Amu glanced up to see an older man with an evil smirk looking down at her
"Hush, Amu-chan" he said. Amu didn't like how he said her name, it was if it was being dipped in poison.
"We need you to come with us. You're going to be good, right?" he said smiling again. Before she could give another muffled reply she was hit from behind and her world began spiraling.
Before she could do anything, she fell into black.
Ikuto opened his eyes, his long eyelashes moving away to reveal his blue eyes.
"You're finally awake, Ikuto!" his cat-like chara, Yoru, moved off from his chest and stretched on the grass around them.
"That was a longer nap than usual, nya" he said rubbing his eye. Ikuto sat up and dusted off some of the grass that had stuck to his black, school uniform. He stood up and ran a hand through his hair
"It's already this lateā¦" he thought to himself. A smirk crossed his face
"Haven't seen Amu for awhile, might as well go check up on her" he said softly in his deep voice. Yoru floated up beside him
"So we're going to her house, nya?" he asked looking up at Ikuto. He gave a slight nod and soon disappeared, making his way to Amu's house.
Ikuto soon arrived on her balcony, where he had visited so many times already. He jumped over the railing and landed on the soft pavement in front of her window. Glancing inside, he noticed the lights were off and there was no Amu
"Must not have gotten home yet" he thought to himself. He looked at the clock inside her room, 8:00pm exactly. Though it was late and unusual for Amu not to be home, Ikuto let it go and turned away
"Perhaps I'll pay my little Amu a visit tomorrow instead"
And with that, he jumped down from the balcony.
Little did anybody know, that Amu wouldn't be showing up.
