Next chapter, I am glad that I received many positive replies to the sequel and I just can't believe I have such amazing readers! Anyway, to chapter 2!

Amu's P.O.V:

"You what?" Ikuto turned around to face me, I bit my bottom lip.

"I told Aria that she and Neron could go to human school." I repeated, Ikuto groaned, tugging at his hair with his fists.

"Are you insane?" He asked.

"You know how she is, she would never give this up." I tried to defend my actions.

"Amu, what if someone finds out about her? We still have no idea what she even is, we need to keep an eye on her at all times."

"You think I haven't thought of that? But Ikuto, you should've seen her, she thinks she is a monster." I sat on our bed.

"What do you mean?"

"She believes that she is only capable of hurting humans, you told her that they would be afraid of her if they found out about her true form." I whispered and his expression softened, he dropped down beside me on the bed.

"This is my fault." He murmured.

"It is not, she just got the wrong idea."

"If I never said that, she wouldn't think that she is a monster." He looked away from me.

"Ikuto, humans are afraid of things that they do not know about, but that is something that she is too young to understand yet." I stroked his cheek but he still refused to look at me. "We should not try to protect her from humans, even if we did make that promise."

~FlashBack~

"They're so adorable." I said, trying to rock Aria to sleep. She was only six months old, I cannot believe that she has grown up so quickly. I looked over at Ikuto, who held a sleeping Neron in his arms.

"I was blessed, Neron falls asleep so quickly." Ikuto smirked at me and I stuck my tongue out at him.

"I wonder what they will be like when they're older." I placed Aria in her crib, still watching her intently.

"Hopefully they won't go through what you did." Ikuto mumbled, kissing Neron's forehead and placing him in his crib.

"I don't want them to even set foot on Earth." I shook my head, trying to get rid of the terrible memories back on Earth. Imagining Aria and Neron go through that makes my blood boil, I clenched my fist and Ikuto hugged me from behind, trying to calm me down.

"How about we make a promise, to protect them down here from now on." He asked while kissing my cheek.

"You know that is a promise we cannot keep, they will turn eighteen one day and be able to do what they want." I sighed.

"We can try, to make sure they stay down here and that they are safe, to promise to try our hardest." Ikuto suggested.

"That is a promise I can keep then." I smiled, kissing his lips.

~End Of Flashback~

"I know I promised that but if we keep them locked up like this, they will never learn to live without us." I stared at him and he finally glanced back at me.

"To go to school, On Earth, without us?" He seemed troubled about this, I took his hand in mine.

"I can tell you this, I will still protect them, but we need to loosen the leash a bit."

"I suppose, but at the first sign of danger, we are dragging them back here." Ikuto warned me and I laughed, I rested my head on his chest and snuggled up beside him. He stroked my hair gently and it felt like so safe and comforting. It almost reminded me when he slept with me when I was eighteen, it always felt like the first time for everything with him.

"I love you." I told him.

"I love you even more."

"It's so pretty up here!" Aria ran around the snowy ground, letting herself fall on it and giggling. Neron started making a snowball with it, still seeming a bit confused with the snow. I was up on Earth to sign Neron and Aria up for school, it was a Sunday so I thought it would be better to do it today when no children are in school. We were currently in front of it, near one of the playgrounds.

"So this is frozen water? Then why isn't it called ice, and why is it soft?" Neron tried to figure the snow out and I sweat-dropped. They have never experienced snow before, since the Underworld is not affected my the seasons.

"Let's go guys, so you can start tomorrow." Aria got up quickly and ran over to me, reaching her hands up as a way to ask me to pick her up. I did so and took Neron on my other arm, loving the inhuman strength I developed.

"Welcome to Parker Elementary, you three look like new faces." The woman in the office said.

"Yes, I am here to sign them up for school, we just recently moved here." I informed her.

"I would need to see their forms and make sure they got their shots." She smiled and I nodded, letting the two down and grabbing the folder from my purse, handing it over. Luckily, Hades created fake form such as the address verification and medical forms. "It seems like everything is in order, I just need you to sign a few forms. Those two may look around the school while we handle this if you like." She suggested, I looked down at them, Aria already giving me her wide eyes.

"Promise me that you will not get into any trouble, and come back here after ten minutes." I knelt down beside them, sticking my pinky finger out. Aria curled her small one on mine, Neron followed and I nodded, getting back up and they ran off.

"Is their hair natural?" The woman asked.

"Yes." I responded as we went to the back room, we sat down at a desk and she started rummaging through papers.

"Can you believe what is going on in the new lately?" She started to make conversation, I gulped, not knowing what she was talking about.

"What do you mean? I moved here from America so I may not be caught up." I quickly made an excuse.

"There is a murderer going around, mostly targeting young kids." She brought the forms out and my eyes widened.

"Really? What are the murders like?" I asked, grabbing the pen and signing the forms.

"They just find children in random places, once they are reported missing, they find the body three days later. The last one was in a river, some people out there are just cruel." She said and the breath hitched in the back of my throat. Utau must know something about this, since she still lives up here. Something told me that I should back out, just return to the Underworld with my precious children without signing them up, but something also told me to continue.

"I am done." I slid them across the desk, she took them and checked over them.

Aria's P.O.V:

"This place is HUGE!" I laughed, running up and down the halls. They were nothing like the castle, there were paint chips in the walls and ugly tiles on the floor, but it seemed like the best thing I have ever seen.

"Aria, we need to go back to mommy." Neron looked around nervously, rubbing his arms as if he was cold.

"Live a little Neron, this is my first time in a school, I wanted to enjoy every moment." I sighed with a grin, looking up at the light fixtures, it did not burn my eyes at all. I turned around and bumped into someone, falling back on my butt, my bow falling in front of my eyes. Today it was a pink one, it matched nicely with my white dress that had pink accents.

"My, my, my, you should watch here you are going." I heard someone say, I lifted the bow and looked up, pale blue eyes that nearly matched Hades'. A wicked smirk was on his lips and I knew I should be cautious around him, I quickly scooted away and Neron helped me up. "Is something wrong little one?" He asked, I quickly examined all of his features to find any sign of wanting to hurt us. His blonde hair was spiked up, a normal blue shirt and jeans, he was bent down to meet my size, the same smirk on his lips.

I quickly hid Neron behind me, scowling at him.

"May I ask why you are here?" I raised a brow, making sure to stay polite as usual. Even though he was a stranger, there was no need to be rude without proper reason.

"I work in this school, little girl, now I can ask you the same question.

"The woman said we could explore the school." Neron spoke up, obviously wanting to stand up for the both of us.

"Well you should be careful, if you bumped into another stranger, you may have not been so lucky." He straightened his back and walked past us.

"What is your name?" I asked, stopping him in his tracks.

"Names do not matter to strangers who will never meet again or not remember each other." With those last words, he walked down the halls, turning a corner and I quickly followed, seeing no one else as soon as I turned the same corner.

"Something was not right about him." Neron quickly commented.

"Obviously, his aura was strange." I observed.

"What do you two think you are doing?" I heard a voice and knew who it was instantly, turning around, I saw my mom standing there with her hands on her hips.

"You didn't happen to see someone, did you?" I questioned her.

"Was I supposed to?"

"No, I guess not." I looked down the hall once more, hoping to find his blonde hair but he was long gone. I wonder if what he said was true, that he worked here and that we would never see each other again. Something upset me about this fact, perhaps I did want to see him again.

"Let's go, we need to stop by Utau's for a minute." Mom said and I nodded, taking her hand while Neron took her other.

Amu's P.O.V:

"Utau, we need to talk!" I shouted, letting Aria and Neron free to roam the house. I walked into her office where she was currently reading a book, she groaned and took her glasses off.

"After so many damn years, you still don't knock." Utau said and I chuckled, walking up to her desk.

"So tell me, the woman at the school said that there is a child murderer loose, any information?" I asked casually.

"A child murderer? I have heard several cases about it but decided not to meddle in it."

"Well I need you to meddle." I quickly said.

"Excuse you, I do not like that demanding tone." She sucked her teeth multiple times, showing her disapproval.

"My kids are going to school here, I rather not find out they go missing one day." I stared at her and she sighed, opening her laptop. After multiple clicks of her keys, her eyes widened.

"Apparently this case is also under review for Hell's guards." She whispered.

"So this is a supernatural case as well? God dammit." I muttered.

"The souls of the children were taken out, then to cover up for the deed and try to mislead us, they would..."

"They would what?"

"They would brutally murder them, to make it look like a normal murder case." She gulped, finishing her sentence. I raked my hair with my hands, shaking the ends of it.

"I can't let them go, this is a damn supernatural case, my children could be attacked by this maniac!" I shouted and she quickly covered my mouth with her hand.

"I am not sure you want them to overhear this conversation." She reminded me and I nodded, she took it off. "Aria will not let go, especially since she is already so close to attending school."

"I know, but-"

"I will make sure they are safe, I will force Satan to send guards down here for them." Utau cut me off.

"Thanks, you're a great friend. "I felt somewhat relieved but still worried. "Ikuto, he said at the first sign of danger, he is dragging them out." I remembered.

"Do not tell him." Utau said as if it was that simple.

"I can't lie to him, he is my husband." I reminded her.

"Just don't mention it, then it's not lying." She shrugged.

"Do you do this with Kukai?"

"Of course not, what type of girlfriend would that make me?" She smiled mischievously, saying it in a way that made me skeptical of her. Before I could say anything else, she walked out and leaving me there, still confused about the current situation.

"What creature would murder children for their souls?" I whispered, trying to figure something out. It could just be because children are easy to manipulate and to lure out? Then again, whatever this is must have enough strength to drag out an adult easily as well. There must be a larger purpose behind all of this, to abduct children and then go through the trouble to try and hide it from Hell's guards? It makes no sense, none at all.

"What are you doing here?" Someone said and I quickly turned around to see Satan standing at the doorway.

"I needed some information." I answered vaguely.

"What type of information?" He seemed concerned.

"Nothing important." I tried to shake that look off of his face, but it stayed.

"You seemed troubled, are your children involved?" He immediately knew it was about my kids, was I that easy to figure out?

"It doesn't matter." I tried to walk past him but he grabbed my arm, pulling me back.

"If Aria is going to get hurt, it does matter." He growled and my eyes widened.

"Neron is important too, asshole." I spat, pulling away. His face seemed flushed and he looked away. "Tell me, what place does Aria exactly hold in your heart?" I crossed my arms over my chest.

"Big enough." He mumbled and my mouth dropped a bit, I quickly closed it.

"She's six!" That's the only thing that I could manage to say, rather surprised about this new information.

"Every time she looks at me, with her wide eyes and that grin, she reminds me so much of..." He stopped himself.

"Who?"

"It doesn't matter, I'm leaving." He shook his head, disappearing from my sight in a matter of seconds. So Satan does have feelings for Aria, but he is far too old for her.

"Ikuto is much older than you." A voice in the back of my head reminded me. Aria is six, it's not like he would wait for her to grow up, he would probably find some girl before she reaches eighteen. Besides, there is nothing saying Aria feels the same way, the crush she has now is temporary.

Right?

OOOO, I know it is probably obvious on who it reminds Satan of, but more information will come soon :3. Hope you all enjoyed the chapter!

Please R&R!
