Thank you to those who reviewed the last chapter! You are all amazing! YAY! Chapter 2! I hope you all this! I apologize before hand for any spelling and/or grammar mistakes!

Fumbling over his check off list, Kenji scrambled around his small one-person apartment.

Through everything with work, he had almost forgotten to pack his things, and the train left in an hour! He was going to be late!

Cramming his cloths into his suitcase, he tripped over one of his shoes that he left laying in the hall.

"Ow." He whined, pushing himself to his feet. Shacking off the pain in his skull, he zipped up his suitcase, grabbed his computer bag, and rushed out the door. Quick to lock it behind him, he speed down the stairs.

Anxiety for the next upcoming days bubbled in his chest.

How in the world was he gonna complete this!? He was lucky he had Arinna coming to help him out. Even with her though, would they be able to complete all the files?

Not to mention, Arinna has her three siblings she has to watch. He was sure she would go to check on them every once and a while. Oh wait, Kenji never really bothered to ask how old her siblings were?
Were they young kids, middle schoolers? Maybe they were both close to her age and in high school?

If that were the case then Arinna wouldn't have to check on them too much, right?

Though, Kenji didn't have any siblings himself, so he didn't know what watching a younger sibling entailed. Just looking at the younger Jinnouchi kids he could tell that watching over them must take a lot of work and constant supervision.

Oh wait, the kids! They would most likely keep coming in to see what Arinna and him were doing. Oh, they would never get any work done if that happened!

They would not doubt have to pull all nighters the next three days.

Being with Natsuki's family wont help the matter at all.

As Kenji threw his bags in his small car to head to the airport, he smiled suddenly at the though of Natsuki's family.

He was happy to be going back. He missed that eccentric family these past few months. Seeing them was always fun.

The best part was that he didn't feel so awkward towards them anymore. They were no longer strangers in his eyes. They had… well, become his own family.

These past two summers, even if the first was spent with life threatening attacks from Love Machine, were the best summer's he's ever had. Kenji never knew one could have so much fun.

The Jinnouchi family was always welcoming, encouraging, and just good people. Sure none of them were perfect, but what family was?
Even Wabisuke had a good side of him, even if he didn't always show it.

Starting his car, Kenji pulled out of the parking lot and towards the train station.

Hopefully, he could make it to the train station in time. He didn't want to keep Natsuki and Arinna waiting.

-NATSUKI-

Humming joyfully to herself, Natsuki lifted her suitcase up and nodded to herself, going over the checklist in her head one last time. If she recalled correctly, she had everything.

Glancing at her clock, she blinked to find that it was already close to eight.

Oh boy, I'm gonna be late. Well, knowing Kenji, he might just be late as well. The goof.

Grabbing any other bag she required, she headed out the door of her small apartment. It was times like these she was glad she lived so close to the train station.

It was only two blocks away. Granted it was a little loud from time to time, but Natsuki was use to the constant noise with her family.

Moving across the street, she began her walk towards the station.

She always loved going back home for the Summer. And having Kenji come with her just made things ten times better. She was glad her family and him got along so well.

She really liked Kenji after all. Like… really liked him.

He was sweet, smart, and had always been there for her when she needed him ever since two Summers ago.

He even allowed her to drag him along and pretend to be her boy friend, and not get mad at her. Plus, he saved her families lives, and the whole world. How amazing of a guy is he?

Smiling happy, the urge to see her boy friend suddenly grew stronger and she picked up her pace.

Hopefully after he was done with his work he would be able to relax for a little bit. Kenji was always working so hard since he got his new promotion from OZ.

Well, he did have Arinna helping him, so he should be fine. Arinna was pretty good with computers.

Well, Natsuki hadn't been able to see much of Arinna's computer skills, but from what she had seen; she seemed to know what she was doing.

So yeah, Natsuki wasn't too worried. Though knowing Kenji, he was probably freaking out about it.

-ARINNA, REI, VINCENT-

Arinna ran her hand through her hair in frustration. Glancing at her watch she tapped her foot impatiently. If they kept the speed they were going they were going to be late, and maybe even miss the train.

That probably wouldn't have Kenji and Natsuki in very good moods.

"Rei! Vincent! When I said we have to leave by 7:50 I mean 7:50! Not 7:58!" Arinna called from the door. There was a small pause from the almost empty apartment before a little head peeked out from the spare room.

Arinna's baby brother, three-year-old Vincent, blinked at her with wide baby blue eyes.

"I tired." He whined.

"I'm tried." Arinna corrected, motioning for him to come to her. Trudging unwillingly to her, Vincent held out his arms, knowing what Arinna wanted.

Kneeling down to him, Arinna looked him up at down.

Just as she expected.

His brown shirt was backwards, his bright neon green pants didn't match his shirt, and his shoes were on the wrong feet.

Grabbing the end of his shirt she lifted it over his head to put it on the right way. Knowing she couldn't do much of the pants she then switched his shoes around for him.

"Rei!' she called again as she tied Vincent's shoe lace.

Slowly another figure appeared from the room. Arinna's younger sister, 15-year-old Rei stood before her with an angry scowl.

"Why do we have to go on this trip?" Rei grumbled, pulling out her suitcase.

"For me it is for business. For Vincent and you, it is for fun." Arinna announced, finishing Vincent's shoes laces. Patting his head she rose to her feet.

Rei didn't look too pleased with the answer and folded her arms.

"Are you ready?" she asked the two.

"Road trip!" Vincent cheered, pumping his tiny fist.

"Yes, now go get your suit case. Are your cloths inside? Did you take them out again?" Arinna smiled at him.

"Cwoths." Vincent nodded, pointing to his suitcase, which was thankfully still full. Last night every time Arinna had packed his suitcase, he would just open it up and take all his cloths out again. Arinna had to actually put the suitcase on the high shelf in the closet to stop him from doing it again.

Arinna chuckled. She always found it so cute how Vincent couldn't say L's correctly and always changed them to W's.

"Good. Do you have your back pack?" she asked.

Vincent paused to rub his chin. Gasping in realization he ran back to his room with an empty backpack. "…No things…" he held the bag out to her. Arinna blinked at the bag, slowly pinching the bridge of her nose.

"Go quickly and grab your toys." She waved him off. Rei snickered slightly when Vincent passed.

"Hopefully you are packed, right?" Arinna gave her little sister a look.

Rei held up her suitcase and guitar case. "Got everything I need." She nodded.

"Good." Just as Arinna said that Vincent returned with a few things to put in his back. Sitting down to do his work he opened his bag.

"I need my book. I need my cwoths." Vincent began to stuff things into his suitcase. Arinna and Rei watched quietly as their little brother continued to grab more and more things. "I need my DS. I need toothbrush. I need my shoe. Only the right shoe, not the weft. I always wose the weft shoe."

Arinna tried not to laugh as Vincent placed his other left show into his suitcase not knowing that it was actually his right shoe.

"I need my juice. I need this potato."

Arinna slapped a hand over her mouth when Vincent began to place many different things into his suitcase. Behind him, Rei would reach over when he wasn't looking, and take out the things he didn't need, such as a potato.

Glancing back at her watch, Arinna screeched to find it was 8:05. Diving towards Vincent she quickly scooped up the rest of his things and stuffed them in the bag. "We're late!" she called. Grabbing Vincent's bag/suitcase and her own, and bolting out the door. Vincent and Rei quickly followed, and sprinted for the car, practically swan diving inside.

Thankfully it didn't take them long to get to the train station.

Only problem by that point though was finding Natsuki and Kenji.

"Hmm. I hope we aren't late." Arinna mumbled, lifting Vincent into her arms to stare around at the entrance.

Holding little Vincent in one hand and dragging her suitcase behind her with the other, Arinna huffed as she looked around.

"You got us lost." Rei said behind her.

"I did not." Arinna pouted. "I'm usually good with my directions and times… that is unless you two are involved. Then we are always late. "

"Usually, unless you don't have them written down on your arm." Rei readjusted Vincent's little backpack on her shoulder with her guitar and dragged her suitcase with her.

"That is the best way to remember anything, I don't understand why you have a problem with it." Arinna stuck her tongue out at her younger sister playfully.

"It is bad for your skin."

"Bad." Vincent repeated.

"Every one keeps telling me that." Arinna noted with a nod. Looking to her right, she paused from walking.

"Hey, Arinna!"

Focusing in on the closest door to her, she grinned at the sight of Kenji. "Kenji." She greeted, running up to him with Vincent and Rei.

"You made it, good. I know I've said it a billion times, but thank you for coming." Kenji sounded relieved. He paused when he saw Rei and Vincent. "Are these two…?" he trailed off.

"Oh, right. Kenji, this is my little sister Rei." She motioned to her.

Rei didn't say anything at first and stared at Kenji, as if trying to read his very soul. Stuffing her hands in her pockets, she mumbled, "Hey."
Kenji smiled nervously at her. She reminded him of how Kazuma was the first time he met him.

"Then this little guy here is Vincent." Arinna held him out a bit for Kenji to see.

"Oh, hello little guy." Kenji smiled politely at him.
"Hewo." Vincent waved a bit.

Kenji opened his mouth to say something, but his watch suddenly beeped. Looking to his, he shrieked to find it was 8:18. "We gotta hurry! Come on!" he grabbed his suitcase and motioned for them to follow.

The three siblings quickly followed, stumbling along over the freaking young adult.

Glancing over his shoulder to see if they were following, Kenji was relieved to see they kept up with him easily.

In another sort of way, Kenji was relieved to finally have gotten a chance to meet Arinna's siblings.

They seemed nice, if not a little uh… antisocial? Would that be the correct word to use for Arinna's younger sister?

He didn't want to sound rude or anything, but that is one of the main words the popped into his head when he looked at Rei. That or 'Kazuma'. Though that can't really be a way to describe someone.

Pushing through the crowds, Kenji grinned at the sight of Natsuki, leaning against the wall she usually did whenever he met up with her here.

Looking up from her phone, she locked gazes with him and smiled.

"Guys! Over here!" she called, putting away her phone. When they got close Natsuki moved forward.

"Arinna." Natsuki moved to hug her. "I'm so glad you are coming."

"Sorry to intrude." Arinna smiled sheepishly.

"Not at all. My family will love you." Natsuki paused, looking to Vincent. "Aww, hello there." She smiled at him. "You must be Vincent, Arinna's little brother. Right?" she asked sweetly.

Suddenly shy, Vincent clung a little tighter to Arinna's shirt. Chuckling, Arinna patted his back. "Come now, say HI." She coaxed.

Looking up at his older sister, he slowly held out a tiny hand. "Hewo."

"Hello to you too." Natsuki smiled, taking his hand and shacking it. Pulling away, she looked at Rei. "And you must be… Rei, right?"

Rei slowly lifted her head. "Yeah." She said, her voice void of emotion.

"Uh…" Natsuki suddenly felt a little awkward. "Nice to meet you."

"…Likewise." Rei looked to the ground, suddenly bored of the conversation.

"Don't mind her." Arinna sighed at her little sister, nudging her a bit. "Shall we get going?"
"Of course. Kenji, can you grab my bags while I go grab the lunches really quick?"

"Lunches? Will we have time?" he looked to the clock nervously.

"Yeah. Don't be such a worry wart." Natsuki chuckled calmly, clearly not as worried as her boy friend.

"Oh…Okay." Kenji nodded, reaching down for his girl friends bags while she moved to the line for lunches. When she was gone, he turned to Arinna. "So um…it is a long train ride, two actually… and a bus ride." He explained.

Arinna nodded in understandement. "Quite a trip."

"You have no idea." Kenji laughed.

"Road twip!" Vincent pumped his head in the fist.

"Got that right." Arinna chuckled.

I hope you all liked this chapter! It is time to meet the family again in the next chapter! Also, we're gonna start getting into some plot points! :D
