Joven: Alright… Chapter 7 for 'The key that matches my lock.' Is up! For those who haven't read it, please review and give me some comments, if you want that is.
Some mistakes in chapter 1,
-Aruto's assets should have been US $10 billion.
-He invests in entertainment, food and drinks, constructions and etc.
I actually wanted to wait for five reviews, and then put up chapter 2, but since there were four positive comments, I'll update chapter 2 earlier then planned.

Chapter 2, Conflicts between brothers.
-Flashback
They soon reached their destination. The seven boys were amazed at how spooky can the place they live look like at night. Soon, Tsukasa went towards them.
"Looks like I'll be sending you up to here. I wish that you all success." Tsukasa said with a smile as he 'floated' away. The seven boys were spooked up and suddenly, the thunder roared. They looked at each other. Slowly, they walked towards to their new villa.
They walked towards the doors of the spooky villa, and another thunder roared. They stood still, as no one dared to make another move. Just then, one of the seven boys stood out.
"I'm going to open the door." Daichi said, hiding his fear.
"Better not~nya!" Yoru warned. Daichi went on ahead, ignoring Yoru's advice. Just as he took his first step, all seven boys saw a shadow floated infront of them. They were stunned at what they saw. The door suddenly made squeaking sounds as the door starts to open and a figure appeared infront of them.
"What the f, Ghost!" Rhythm said, shocked by the appearance of the figure.
"Ghost?" The figured said as she revealed her orange hair, and tilted her head sideways.
"The ghost spoke!" Rhythm said again, hiding behind Daichi.
"Look carefully, dumb ass." Ikuto stated plainly.
"What's with that look…?" Kukai asked, wondering what had she been doing.
"Look…? Oh, I get it! Let me go change!" The girl said cheerfully. She then disappeared somewhere and came back within seconds with a new outfit. "Young masters, please come in." She said, as she invited the seven boys inside.
As they entered, the seven boys looked around their new house. To their surprise, the villa was not as spooky as the exterior. The villa is neat and tidy, leaving no speck of dust on the furnitures. Ikuto saw some of his dad's portrait on the wall and thought, 'Crazy old man.'
"The old master may look serious and stuff, but he actually is a fun loving person." The girl told Ikuto, as though she read his mind.
"Hey, you called us young masters… then who are you~nya?" Yoru asked, wondering who the girl is.
"I'm the housekeeper, and you can call me Dia." She introduced herself. "It's a pleasure to meet you all, young masters."
"What a cute housekeeper…" Rhythm thought aloud, allowing everybody to hear what he just said.
"Where's my room?" Ikuto asked. He would rather sleep than standing and listening to talks.
"Your rooms are on the second and third levels, and your names are on the door." Dia said, with a smile. Ikuto then went up to look for his room, followed by Kukai, Nagi and Kairi. Then, Yoru went towards Dia.
"Since you're the housekeeper~nya, I'll leave this to you~nya!" Yoru said, passing Dia his luggage and went up. All Dia could say was, "But…"
"Thank you, Dia-Chan!" Daichi passed her his bag and took his bicycle up. Rhythm stood there, being a bit angry on the inside. He went up to Dia and to her surprise, Rhythm said, "I'll help you out."
"Thank you, Rhythm-sama!" Dia said as she passed him the luggage. "You can do it!" Said Dia, as she passed him the last luggage and left Rhythm taking all the luggage to his room.
Ikuto's and Kukai's room.
Kukai was trying his best to tidy his part of the room to be as clean as possible. However, the cleaning was not as neat as he expected and soon, he attempt to get along with Ikuto.
"Hey, you like cars?" Kukai asked, as he recalled Ikuto having one of the limited edition's BM. He was waiting for Ikuto's reply but Ikuto himself was to busy making his bed and he did not want to reply the question. Kukai was pissed on the inside, when he said something that caught Ikuto's attention.
"Hey, wanna race?" Kukai asked, with a smirk.
Ikuto's eyes widened. He slowly sat up from his bed, turned to Kukai and asked, "You challenging me?"
"You sure catch things fast. Up to it?" Kukai gave Ikuto another smirk, challenging him once again.
"Bring it." Ikuto said, as he got off his bed. Just as they were about to step out of their room, Dia stepped in.
"Where are you going, Young masters?" Dia asked, wondering where they would be going this late of the night.
"Drag-racing." Ikuto said, and pushed Dia off the way. As they took the first step out of the room, loud noises could be heard from above their room stung their ears, making the three fall on all fours.
"Who the hell would be playing the guitar this late!" Kukai asked, hoping Dia can give him the answer.
"Must be Kairi-Sama and Naghiko-Sama. Ikuto-sama and Kukai-sama, stop fighting alright? Be good boys. I will go stop them now…" Dia said, as she struggled to get out of Ikuto's and Kukai's leg-fight, since the two are unable to race…
-Nagihiko's and Kairi's room.
Inside the room of the third and the last, drums and guitar could be heard. However, both instruments were playing to their own tune and hence, causing the sound to be disruptive instead of pleasing.
Dia stepped into the room, her hands still covering her ears. She went up to Nagihiko.
"Nagihiko-sama! Please stop playing! You'll alert the neighbours!" Dia persuaded. However, it was of no use and none of her words went in his head. Dia let out a scream, before reaching for a frying pan out of nowhere and knock out Nagihiko in a strike. She then turned around and gave a death glare at Kairi, who was still playing his drum. She appeared behind him and gave him a knock on the head with the pan she had on her hand, knocking out Kairi in a single hit. Dia was proud of what she had done but that moment lasted not for long, for she heard the voices of Kukai and Ikuto quarrelling. She then rushed out to stop the two from racing. As she rushed out of the room, Yoru was coming from the staircase, looking for her.
"Dia~nya!" Yoru called out.
"Something the matter, Yoru-sama?" Dia asked, as she turned around.
"Can you remove the thing Daichi placed at our door? It's troublesome~nya." Yoru said.
"But, I'm kind of busy right now. I'll clear it later okay?" Dia assured Yoru.
"Since you're so busy, let me handle it. Do you have a tool box~nya?" Yoru said.
"Yes. What do you need?" Dia asked.
"Screwdrivers!" Yoru said. Dia reached for one out of nowhere. Yoru wondered where did she take the screwdrivers from.
"Hammer?" Yoru said again as Dia jumped and a hammer appeared out of nowhere again.
"How did you get these things…?" Yoru asked, aloud.
"Yoru-sama… do you still need anything? I'm a bit busy right now…" Dia said.
"Pliers!" Yoru said.
"Pliers…? Oh! I think it's at the fridge. Can you go get it your self? I'm in a rush now…" Dia said, as she rushed down to the lobby.
"If the Pliers are in the fridge, where will the ice-creams be~nya?" Yoru pondered, and soon shrug it off and went back to his room.
As Dia walked down the stairs, she thought that Rhythm, Yoru and Daichi are the best, since they did not create any trouble. But why would Yoru need a pair of pliers? She soon shrugged off the thought when she heard the noise of Ikuto and Kukai fighting.
-Lobby
When Dia arrived, Ikuto and Kukai were pinching each others' faces. Dia tried to persuade them to stop, when ikuto let go of his hand and pushed Kukai away.
"Let's go." Ikuto said, walking out of the villa. Just then, Daichi got back. He was spun around by Ikuto and Kukai, who was right behind Ikuto.
"Daichi-sama! Please help me stop them! They're going to race at this late of the night! Something might happen to them!" Dia pleaded. She did not want Ikuto or Kukai to get into an accident. After hearing what Dia said, Daichi got the wrong idea.
"You know, a bicycle depends on manpower. It can't compare to huge vehicles like cars and bikes. But since you trust me so much, I believe I can outrace them, and break the world record!" Daichi said, full of confidence as he ran up to get his bicycle.
"Huh…?" Dia said, as she wondered what Daichi meant when he said that. She soon shrugged off the thought and went to the kitchen.
-Yoru's, Rhythm's and Daichi's room.
Daichi ran up excitedly. As he stepped into the room, he saw his bicycle, only separated into different parts. He knelt down infront of it and cried, saying "Oh! My bicycle! Even though we have not been together for long, but we've been to many beautiful places… everything is in our hearts…"
"Why do you have to leave me!" He said, loudly and still crying. What he knows nothing about was that Yoru was the one who did this, and Rhythm saw everything.
-Outside.
Kukai and Ikuto walked out thinking of their destination. A place suddenly came into Ikuto's mind.
"There is a bakery almost twenty kilometres from here, in the town of Saiyo. Whoever has its Chocolate cake first will win." Ikuto stated, as he stepped into his car.
"I know where it is. Their cake there is one of the best in Saiyo, especially banana flavoured." Kukai replied with a smirk, as he sat on his bike and starts his engine.
"I don't like bananas but whatever. Whoever bought the bread or cake there and eats them first is the winner." Ikuto said as he started his engine, while Kukai placed his helmet on his head and sped off, leaving Ikuto behind.
"Think you can win by having a head start?" Ikuto thought aloud, smirking. He then stepped on the accelerator and sped off.
-Highway.
The race was intense and until now, Kukai was still leading. A smirk formed on Ikuto's face.
'Even if your skills are better than mine, two wheels just can't win four wheels.' He thought, placing his gear at four. The car then went beside Kukai, who was stunned. Ikuto showed him a smirk, and stepped harder on the accelerator, giving him the lead.
'Teasing me…? Not a chance.' Kukai said to himself in his head. He too, increased the speed of his bike and overtook Ikuto. The race has been like this, the two boys overtaking each other.
'Interesting.' Ikuto thought, as he came to a stop, allowing Kukai to overtake hime. He then slowly chased him from behind.
-Town of Seiyo.
In the busy town of Saiyo, a bike sped towards the bakery he was heading for. To his surprise, a familiar BM was parked there and seconds later, a guy with midnight blue hair and sapphire eyes stepped out, eating a piece of cake.
"I…Ikuto!" To his surprise, his brother won.
"You're slow."Ikuto said, as he ate his cake.
"Congratulations then…" Kukai said, unwillingly.
"Dia sent us a message. Read it yourself." Ikuto said, as he took another bite of the cake he had in hand.
"Why?" Kukai asked, wondering what could be in the message.
"Just read. I'm going to fix my car." Ikuto said, as he walked towards his car.
"Alright then… I guess I'll go home." Kukai said, and he sped off.
'Impatient as ever…' Ikuto thought and stepped into his car and sped off.
-With Ikuto.
Ikuto drove his way to his friend's garage. To his surprise, he saw a pink haired lady with bright pink eyes instead.
"Where's Kenji?" He asked the girl, who was shocked from Ikuto's presence.
"He went to the army to re-service. Need help?" The girl smiled at him.
"It's okay… I'll come by another day." Ikuto said. He was about to reverse his car when the girl walked up.
"Can't trust me?" She asked, furiously.
"Okay, fix it then. My car's"
"Speed is unstable, right?" The girl interrupted him.
"How did you know?" Ikuto asked plainly.
"The engine of the sport's car must be checked regularly, don't you know?" She asked Ikuto.
"Whatever. Just fix the car."Ikuto said, as he stepped out of his car.
"Don't you want to know the price first?" The girl asked.
"Nope. Fix my car." Ikuto stated plainly.
"You're quite different. Most of my other customers would bargain to lower the price for just spare parts, and their driving skills suck at the same time." She said and thought of asking him a question.
"Hey, are you good at driving?" She asked, as she started to fix Ikuto's car.
"Nope. Average driver." Ikuto said, as he thought of how he won Kukai.
-Highway flashback.
'Interesting.' Ikuto thought, as he came to a stop, allowing Kukai to overtake hime. He then slowly chased him from behind.
Ikuto knew that they were about to turn. With that, he placed his gear at three, slowing down his speed. And when they are about to turn, Ikuto placed it at two, and did a drift. He then slowly increases his speed. Kukai however, failed to realise that Ikuto was in front of him as he was too busy turning his bike around.
-End of flashback.
"Hey, what's your name?" The girl asked, as she pushed down the cover for the car.
"Ikuto. How much is it?" Ikuto asked. He is getting impatient and wants to go home, immediately.
" $3000. And I'm Ran." She replied, with a smile. Ikuto passed ran the money and stepped into the car. He started the engine and get out of the village, and head back for the villa.
-Villa
When Ikuto reached home, Kukai was already sitting on the sofa with the others. He wondered what happened, but never spoke.
"Welcome back, Ikuto-sama." Dia greeted, with a smile.
"Hey, go tap your finger at the clock thing." Nagihiko instructed Ikuto.
"Huh?" Ikuto stated plainly. Why would he need to tap his finger on some clock?
"According to the contract page 253 rule number 3, all seven boys have to tap their finger on the clock, and they can't leave the house after twelve. This is because Aruto-sama believes that "Sleep early, Waking up early" is good for health."
"You memorised the whole book~nya?" Yoru asked, amazed.
Dia simply gave a nod wile Ikuto went to tap his finger. He was about to go to his room when Dia said, "Chotto!"
Everybody looked at Dia, expecting something good to happen, or at least something that is worth waiting.
"You have to hug each other before you sleep." Dia said, with a smile.
"No" The boys said in unison, except Rhythm.
"But page 522 contract number six stated that you have to hug each other, so that it will increase your bond as brothers, or else you will not be able to inherit Aruto-sama's US$10Billion…" Dia said, panicky. Rhythm, seeing Dia unhappy, came up with an idea.
"Hey! Look! US$10Billion!" As he point towards the top. All the seven boys looked up, imagined that there really is ten billion dropping from above. They were all so overjoyed that they broke into hugs, not realising that they hugged each other.
"Very good! Now everybody can sleep peacefully! Good night, young masters!" Dia said, smiling and left for her room, leaving the seven boys to hug each other.
