Amu: Okay...After valleys or mountains of papers the author finished the next chap!
Tara: Poor Author-San, we rely on you too much...What the?! What's a cat-dude here for?!
Ikuto: Mreow?
Tadase: TSUKIYOMI IKUTO! HOLY CROWN!
Tara: Seriously?! Some kitty cosplay dude?!
Chapter 3: First Encounter of the X-Kind?!
'Yaya-chan! Wake up or you'll be late for school!' Yelled a voice from downstairs. 'COMING MAMA-CHI!' Yelled back Yaya resulting in the crying of her younger baby brother Tsubasa. Yaya let out a slight frown and pouted at her brother who was in his cot before she stamped downstairs. Her mother was frying eggs in a hurry and she turned and gave her young daughter a weary smile. 'Papa-chi went to work?' Asked Yaya. Her mother nodded before letting out a deep cough.
Yaya was rather grumpy as she stomped into the Royal Garden. 'What's wrong Yaya-chan?' Asked Tara who was sketching. 'Nothing! I wish my parents weren't so busy!' retorted Yaya. 'Eeh? You called her -Chan?' Broke in Amu. Tara blushed, 'But Yuiki-San isn't is better to have busy parents than none at all?' She questioned. 'Mama always at work, Papa always away leaving me to TAKE CARE OF TSUBASA!' Yelled Yaya rolling on the floor.
'But still Tara-San has a point...' Broke in Tadase. 'YOU SHOULD BE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE PARENTS!'exclaimed Kukai with his usual grin. 'Lucky, huh? What if I said I didn't have?' Asked Tara. 'You'd be unlucky...wait...you don't?' Asked Kukai. Tara nodded lost in thought. All was silent for a few minutes. 'Ehm...why didn't you tell us?' Asked Amu. 'You didn't ask...' 'ARE YOU CRAZY HOW DO YOU LIVE?!' Asked Yaya. 'Alone basically, I'm in the company of Mira, my dogs and my fox...' Shrugged Tara.
'Umm...Amu-chan, bad Chara presence...' Broke in Miki. 'Go Amu-chi, Chara-Narii!' Cheered Yaya as Amu transformed into Amulet Heart. 'Wow...Amazing...' Gasped Tara. 'Isn't it? Hinamori purifies the corrupted egg when we corner it!' Grinned Kukai as he Chara changed with everyone else
'Amu-chan! The playground!' Exclaimed Ran from within the Humpty Lock. 'Got it!' Answered Amu with the others close behind. In the playground there was an X-egg along with an older guy next to it. He had midnight blue hair and bluish eyes as well as a sinister aura around him. He also had blue cat ears and a tail.
'Well, well well, look who it is, isn't it the kiddy king?' Teased the dude. 'TSUKIYOMI IKUTO!' exclaimed Tadase gripping his scepter tighter. 'Oh, new recruit into the side eh?' He asked advancing towards Tara whose face was emotionless. He touched her chin and pulled her face up, while the others were too panicked to do anything. Tadase's grip tightened and his eyebrows arched.
To their surprise Tara looked really angry when she looked up, 'Kitty cosplay...' She murmured as she took off that eyepatch which covered her golden eye. Her eyes became narrow and breath slowed down. She parted her hair neatly revealing a golden mark on her forehead. 'Time to get serious...' She murmured as the mark began to glow brighter and brighter. Tara was now wearing a white coat edged with gold that parted into a style at her waist. 'Ready for a showdown Kitty?' She asked boldly.
The others looked flabbergasted, 'Help her if it gets critical, Tsukiyomi is powerful even without a Chara. Change...' Whispered Tadase to Amu. Amazingly though they didn't need to step in, Tara dodged every attack just in time and left Ikuto panting. 'Next time...we'll be prepared...' He mentioned darkly before vanishing. 'Now Amu-chan!' 'Negative Heart, LOCK ON, OPEN HEART!' She yelled performing the purification method...
'Hmm? How did you know when he'd attack?' Though Kukai aloud. 'Oh? The eye helps me detect when he attacks and how' smiled Tara. 'I smell competition...' Said Amu. 'Wha? NOO... None at all...' Blushed Tadase. 'Hm? Tadase-kun is...?' Amu began but she wasn't able to finish as Yaya clamped her mouth shut. Everyone began to laugh.
