Author note: Yes, I'm back. I'm done with midterms and finals. Also, I apologize for the gigantic chapter, but I was writing this before I went on break for my academics. Now I got three weeks to make like four months of updates. Well, I hope you like this story is about to be a wild ride. If you're ready to laugh? I hope I can make that happen. While there is a plot there is a lot of its more focus on the nonsense and on-going year instead of sporadically jumping around in time. I'm not one to make it sound like translation adding Japanese terms like calling a character sensei, senpai or using the honorifics or the things that have become memes like Nani or Baka. I rather the characters say what or moron, idiot or dickhead. Lol, I just rather do things my way. I hope that doesn't rub anyone the wrong way, that just do thing my own way.

Thanking the deity's listening above, she was able to get her hair back to its natural color. Hoping the dye job didn't have permanent side effects on her powers. The salon was amendable got to back to her quickly about getting the temporary dye out of her hair. As it was interfering with her powers. She was too used to New York and the stylist not seeing you the last minute, that didn't mean they didn't have an issue dealing with curlier then there used to hair. And it was a great feeling to be back to looking like herself again. God, it was way too early to be thinking this much. She looks at the alarm and it was six am.

Wait its early enough that Kusuo won't be up!

They have a terse agreement as it is and with the brainwashing wearing off? She needed to make the area easier live in. The house doesn't feel like home just yet much less truly safe. She needs to change that. She turned her computer on she was just hoping he doesn't wake up in the middle of this. She turns to Spotify she looks longingly at the rock and alternative genres knowing she won't be playing that for this ritual. Looking at the list noticing every song was hip-hop, rap or incredibly explicit. For mom and Valeria and their safety, god what I'm willing to do for family? She felt herself suck up her pride knowing this was a public good.

Playing the first song on the list Ghetto Musick by Outkast she starts dancing provocatively gyrating her hips sensually. Which is part of the ritual for this one particularly? The way this ritual works it leads evils ghost in. The more provocative she dances the more they show up in droves. Like tempting a predator by sending out the smell of a fresh kill. With the bright innocent soul, she was born with. She was a beacon regardless of the time day. She might as well have a siren saying she was an easy kill, something they could corrupt, that they could influence. A soft prayer to send them off to their afterlife. She can see the spirts both rising to the light and sinking below. There was the glow from both directions the light from the ceiling was golden glow and below and eerie red. Making clear where the worse are going. The more into it you get the faster the process becomes. The dirtier the song the faster they show up. She felt her shim her and body roll, bring the horde of a ghost coming like bugs to a zapper none lasting more than a second. Especially when u and dat by E40 started playing. She rather no one came in and saw me twerking right now.

Right as she thought that Kusuo was waking up and he can tell his neighbor was already doing something she didn't want to explain. Let me just pretend she can't hear her and get through her daily routine.

You know the music sucks but its great work out.

I'm not listening to this. This is not happening right now. Shaking his head focusing on his father sleeping through his alarm. And his mother was puttering around the kitchen. She can help her making breakfast. Pretending her neighbor isn't dancing provocatively in what she believes in the privacy of the bedroom. She still has to call her brother and let him know that she needs to make a visit. That the pins are liable to start malfunctioning and she needs his assistance. As much as it sucks it's better than being here while they start shooting. They already made an advisory person knock on the doors to let everyone know they will be shooting a show in the area tomorrow. Whatever "Mikoto" doing is her business and none of mine. He had better things to do today.

What's my band from d12 doing in here? Technically counts okay let's finish this up.

"All evil spirits who come within 5 feet from her home will be cut from the teeters of this earthly plane. Let them find the sense of peace in whatever afterlife a wait for them."

She could hear the familiar howling of ghosts being forcibly pulled from this world. Cursing her name and calling me a whore. Nothing she hasn't heard before especially once it's done, they can finally move on to whatever's next. Finally done! She can go get breakfast. She got a full day ahead of with her little sister bonding and adjusting. This is a big switch up from New York there are a lot more rules on etiquette. The brainwashing gives a basic rundown. Like she now knows how to hold chopsticks properly and she has an idea of what's expected from me. The only positive of it but things like appropriate small talk is out of the depth of the brainwashing. Well, that's why Valeria (Sara) and she are going to the beach. We can people watch and get used using Japanese. Since neither of are used to speaking it. The only way to learn anything is to live it as her mom says.

She walked out of her room, her little sister is rubbing her eyes giving me quizzical look.

"Mia does she even need to ask?" She had smirk because she knows very well, she was she doing in her room and she wanted to tease me for it. She rolled her eyes at her knowing that she needed to remind her since she can tell she forgot already. She didn't need to look the future to know she forgot she didn't have the ability to see the ghost so why bother knowing that?

"Val, she had to do the ritual. Last time she didn't half of our building got possessed. She won't have to do this again unless we are forced to move again."

"I really miss New York sis." Valeria for her part was getting watery eyed.

"Me too, sis." She misses the chaos, the ability to just blend in because anything strange was atypical of New York.

"Come on mom is making breakfast it's your favorite chocolate chip pancakes."

Climbing down the stairs they could smell the aroma of buttery goodness wafting in their direction as we walked into the dining room, they could see their mom in the kitchen.

"Good morning mom!" We chorused together. The radio was playing something made it felt more like home, but she doubts that the neighbors would think so.

"It would be even better morning if you two got to work." Her mom is using her silly but bossy tone was always a welcoming tone first thing in the morning. It's familiar and made her feel comforted.

We went to the cupboard to get all the plates and silverware. She carried a jug of milk and juice. As her sister placed the silverware in the correct order. Her mom brought the stack of pancakes in the center as it always is for breakfast free for all. Enough for everyone but fluffy and perfect and their maple syrup! But when she cut up the pancake without syrup perfection all the same. Like entering heaven as a way to start the day.

"Can't we go to school under our own names? I don't want to be "Sara" I can barely keep the cover story they gave us straight in her head mom. It's not as if the people who want to kill us are Japan too right?"

"Well, honey we still need to keep cover you know the court case against Salinas gang is still ongoing. So no using your real names, no English and no Spanish either try not to bring unneeded attention to ourselves. I'm still having a hard time with all the things given in our cover story too and as misguided and idiotic as the guard cover story and alias? It's only until the case is over just see it as an adventure sweetheart."

Her mother was strong she can see the visible emotional pain in her aura, but she didn't have the heart to call her out for it. She had a fake smile when she mentioned the cover story and that we need to follow it. her mother didn't like this any more than either of us.

One of the hardest things was reminding her mother what happened. Reminding her mother how our lives got so upturned and messy. She was just a top-notch attorney one of the best. Her powers of telepathy, she can talk to animals and plants alike hearing the thoughts. Which more than once helped client or helped put a defendant away. But with being the best means death threats constantly. Especially with our background, we're a dime a dozen Hispanics are everywhere we fit right in most places. Racism against us is always bound to happen especially with the wealth her mother gained and the life we used to lead. In Japan, on the other hand, we stand out like a sore thumbs, unless we are disguised as something else. her mom's law firm was connected to a lot of organized crime and her mom sense of justice rang and she blew the whistle to both the government and to the DA's office to the surprise of no one. But considering the strings of crime syndicates and the people who have gone to jail and all the evidence the entire court case was ironclad and her mother gave her whoever is taking those people to jail are working with the giant file of evidence her mother left. But for us, as a whole family was put in the crosshairs. We were stuck in a rock and a hard place with not one but four attempts on lives foiled, true luck and bystanders. Which is why witness protection was given forcibly to us. It wouldn't be so bad if the people who were sent to keep up safe actually did their jobs and allowed us to go to the Midwest to some Podunk town instead of out of the country and brainwashed. So, they can save themselves the work of having to protect us. But changing names, making fake identities and brainwashing us to believe we were people were not. her mom now is running a business she started now. She must overhaul it and find someone to partner with since she rather be a lawyer again. But changing names, making fake identities, actually brainwashing us into a new identity is such a bad plan. There are so many factors of it going wrong, like us outing ourselves as she did in all the prior times. She had an active Instagram as her brainwashed persona 10,000 followers and rising. Anyone with half a brain would figure out I'm not a ganguro and the skin complexion is natural and not fake, notice the eyeliner and makeup. It's a mess of epic proportions and it makes me terrified that they could be so careless.

We are here now so all we can do is muddle through, so she can't take S. back home. She won't be able to study the way she normally would. Maybe she can find a workaround online somewhere, so she can still go to a university back in the states. Which she thinks will still count if she takes it within the year were back home by 2017. More than anything. But she hopes she's wrong. And the point of today of trying to get used to the way people behave and atypical small talk conversation. If we have stayed in hiding for the next ten years instead. That means her life is completely uprooted, finishing not only her junior but also her senior year in PK Academy her, going to college in Japan, going to work in Japan. I'm under no assumption she was going to get married in the next ten years or even engaged for that matter. So, getting used to everything here? What is and isn't appropriate is key to being able to get by unnoticed and safe.

"Alright, my darlings! I have to get the house stocked with food, I doubt I'll find everything we need in the market down the street! Enjoy your day trip to the beach and in public only call yourselves by your assigned names and in Japanese only. At home were still us we can speak in English and Spanish, there are no barriers and we will find a way to be able to contact our relocation officers. since we have no guards, no contact, and they did something completely stupid! They'll be lucky I don't sue for mismanagement and reckless endangerment. What if one of you two exposed us, or worse our abilities? I'm glad we are ourselves again."

Mom for her part seemed to be just over thinking and planning. She knows that she would ask Valeria for her expertise her being a hacker, she swears she's a technopath, but we weren't completely sure. Otherwise, I doubt mom, or I would have no clue how we are would be to get in contact with everyone we left behind and what happened to our apartment our stuff all we had was our clothes and some start-up money. We still need to figure out how to get home or give the guards a piece of our minds for throwing our safety for essentially throwing us to the wolves.

We gave our mom a wave goodbye let her know we would be back in the afternoon. She had the daypack for the beach with our bikini she under our clothes. She had some pocket money she and her sister were chatting away in conversation Japanese while we walked to the train.

The walk she knew was going to be filled with problems. her sister was a lot of things and she brought a lot of attention to herself when we go out back home. She would always have to keep an eye out for her. While she can take care of herself, she was telekinetic and hydrokinetic. If she wants, she could wash a group of men away like she was the ocean in human form, but she was so nice and didn't realize someone's intention and she had to be overprotective. Since she was so trusting, one of us has to be. Taking that proactive step by sending a wave of boredom to all the creepy and lustful men around us to have a peaceful walk. She had two goals today get a feel for the way peoples interact here and mimic their customs and make sure no sleaze bothers her little sister while we're trying to enjoy a warm day outside. It was great to see all these men who couldn't stop gawking at a baby sister? We're now bored out of their mind staring off into space trying to find something to entertain their minds if their constant staring at anything, everyone and anyone that wasn't me and her sister. The trip didn't take long. And the beach was a little more crowded than she expected so lowered the boredom feeling in everyone that wasn't me or her sister. And the attention was back on her. her sister is like the hope diamond or doe every idiot thinks he can touch like they are worthy, but she just doesn't want to see her hurt. Girls younger than her have been hurt a lot worst. She refuses to let her go through it when she can prevent it. It's not like we have a dad. Dad passed away when she was three, six months after Valeria was born. He was killed in a shootout in a sting operation gone wrong. He had just moved up to vice detective too.

The beach was so much more crowded than she expected! Apparently, everyone was up for taking in summer sun too. If all the families and pockets of people tanning were anything to by. She places the blanket down with a picnic blanket the attention on her sister was getting oppressive. Especially when she notices the crowd of young men encroaching behind us. She turns around and gives them a very mean glare, she swears she sees some guys drooling. With one look they seem to scurry away from a distance. They were looking in our direction and they are keeping space. It's all she can ask for apparently. Telling her sister stay right there, that she would get the beach chairs and the beach umbrella.

"Can you get the sunblock out? We don't need to get a sunburn today,"

She says looking at her sister who got started looking through her bag and the picnic basket to find it. Hoping her glare was enough to keep the creeps away from sister while she got some rented beach chairs to lay in. Even if we go swimming, we need a place to lay out and take a break and the blanket just won't cut it and being covered in sand on the way hope is not how she want to go home. She noticed a familiar face who did a double take as she walked past. She noticed his bandaged hands and the spiky hair. He didn't know me, but she did know him, and she also knew he wouldn't talk to me. He was shy and splutter under any attention of any girl kind of guy. But she sent a smile his way regardless, he was blushing bright red making me raise an eyebrow, as she passed him. Getting closer to the rentals building. His belief in dark reunion and his wild imagination is something she will eventually call him out on. But today wasn't the day. Especially since his little brother was with him and she didn't want to completely crush fantasy in front of his little brother. There are real conspiracy theories that are taking place right here right now. Honestly with the imagination and how inventive the ideas are he can make a manga based off those ideas he has. Hopefully, she can make him see that too.

the rental clerk was acting weird too there was a line for most of the other customers it was business usual then when it came to me?

A big dopey smile spread on the clerk's face and the other workers seem to stop what they're doing and watching me apparently.

"Well hello, miss! How may she help you on this beautiful day?"

The clerk's voice had a kind of dopey sound to it too. There was lust in his aura and she noticed there were similar romantic inclinations simmering in everyone's aura she looks behind me quickly taking note of the people behind me noting the pretty girls behind me feeling some relief that they were really focusing on the girls behind me she doesn't need guys creeping on her. Not like they ever actually do anyway.

"She needs two beach chairs and a beach umbrella please?"

"Right away miss and may she say miss if I'm not being too forward you are looking lovely in your swimsuit miss."

Well, now I'm self-conscious about her body in this bikini! This guy is really looking for an up sale through pointless flattery.

"That will be fifty yen altogether." She raised an eyebrow thinking for all of that I'm renting for the next few hours that's the equivalent of 50 cents back home. But I'm not going to argue. Cheap prices are great for me and bad for them.

"And I have these fine gentlemen help you take your things to your spot on the beach."

Three men came out from the back of the rental shack. They were different sizes lanky, bulky and the tall and muscular. The teal haired lanky one was flushing with a smirk in her direction as he held the umbrella. The pink haired bulky, one was completely red-faced almost like a tomato was clashing with hair. Then tall muscular purple haired guy seemed to have a dopey look similar to the clerk who helped me.

"Come along guys my spot is this way,"

She sounded chipper to anyone who was looking. But she was incredibly perplexed because she was wondering how she would drag all that stuff the chairs were easy, but the umbrella might get awkward. Though expressions on their where surprising just who had them acting so enamored? Probably some model on the beach or a pretty girl. Why do men fall over themselves for a pretty face, I'll never know? She notices she was going pass Kiadou again she waves even though he didn't know her yet. She kind of couldn't help it he's worked better but she knows she will be setting up her bestie up with him? she might as well be friendly to be a good wing woman, right? She notices the spot on the beach her sister and herself are sitting on was getting crowded. A bunch of guys of various shapes and sizes to standing around two of them with palm leaves fanning her sister who was slathering on sunblock as the guys parted and seem to drool more upon seeing me. There must be something in the water she swears. I'm going to actively ignore them. She needs to save her empathy powers for later.

"Hey, sis, I got the beach chairs!"

"Miki! The guys have been so sweet here! they noticed you walked away and decided to keep me company. One of them even ran off to get me a sun hat from the beach store isn't that great?"

"Yeah, Sara, that's great!" Inside she was thinking about how weird it is that all these guys are waiting on her sister like she's a princess. As her sister stood up to allow the guys to set up the chairs and the umbrella

"Do you need anything miss Sara? We will get it for you! How about you miss are you thirsty? No, but you are. What's your name?" It reminds me piranha feeding frenzy the way the guys were asking her sister and me twenty questions and we can barely keep straight who asking what.

"Really take it easy guys one question at a time please."

She was saying that with a chipper voice that sounded false even to her own ears, but they were making me nervous. She truly doesn't like this much attention but there is nothing she can do about for some reason the guys were just interested in me as they were her little sister. It's like her memory she showed Saiki, men would be attracted to a ham sandwich if they thought it would allow them to get out their urges. They must not realize her sister won't like them any better if they act like their interested in me. But she noticed she became the focus of the guy's attention. Dear lord is the lust in their aura palpable like fog of the pinkish auras the color of lust. In all the men surrounding me and her little sister men, young male teens are usually mindless to their hormones and desires.

"What is your name, lovely angel?"

"Me? I'm Aiura Mikoto. Well, I introduced to myself to all of you it's only polite you introduce yourselves to me." While she was curious, she was stalling because she felt uncomfortable with this much attention on her. Even if it is some weird convoluted way to date her sister and not her. Not that any of them are her type, to begin with, her visions. she could see her future with any one of them and all it pales, or saddening filled with mistrust or be treated like a prize. If that's not enough she knows none of them is her soulmate. In a lifetime every human being has six people in all the world who can complete you. Sometimes you never meet. Sometimes your sexuality isn't compatible. She knows two of her soulmates are women. She has no desire to be with a woman. Or you have an issue she has now with Saiki. He has no interest in anyone. And the idea of humoring them it seems cruel but, she was taking note of their introduction "accidentally" tapping a shoulder picking up their etiquette and how to behave whether as a woman or man its good way to pass it on too her sister and her mother too.

She noticed some of their names are familiar classmates that she knew she would run into at PK Academy her some people that are new to me. She swears her sister is drawing a crowd of guys the likes of a famous actress. She decides to get into the beach chair putting her feet in the rest as the clerk placed the beach umbrella in just the right way. They seem like they wanted to stay but the walkie-talkie had their boss telling them they needed to get back to work the register. They left with their head hanging. She barely noticed with the crowd of guys around us "Sara" passes the sunblock bottle to her. with her bikini designed as it is, makes it easier to cover herself slowly and meticulously in sunblock. She swears she saw some nosebleeds as she covered her legs, she gives a discreet eye roll "boy" as she lay back spread sunblock on her chest and neck and face waiting on it to dry, she planned to go swimming it isn't a day at the beach without that. She noticed on a commotion coming from the other side of the beach.

The guy who went to get her sisters sun hat was running back making long powerful strides as he ran, and it was impressive. She knew right away who it was there was no mistaking him his aura and guardian spirit. Even he can submit to her sister's charms? She may need to teach her little sister how to read other people intentions because her beauty is stronger than Teruhashi Kokomi. If even Hairo Kineshi, the boy who is all drive and no distractions? Is under her baby sister's spell of attraction. No one is immune, and she needs to be cautious in the future.

"Here lady Sara, I have but a simple token of her affection and let your radiance continue to show. She hopes that will be enough to show her care for the welfare of your body to protect it from the sun." He said with a strong voice that only a shining knight could pull off successfully. He ruins it by sweating like a hog the spot he looked like it was wet with the ocean wave.

"thank you that was very kind of you and thank for caring for her wellbeing. This is her big sister Mikoto!" her sister was making a face in a sense her aura was giving her way it showed her discomfort and slight annoyance and embarrassment.

He turned to me if she thought he was attracted to her sister? His aura almost gave me a heart attack because it wasn't lust there wasn't a drop of lust in his aura not what was in his aura was love like the first spark of it when he looked at me. It rocked me to her core. Trying to mentally collect herself like what she saw was just a part of her day to day and not the rarity that it was. Most guys are beings that are slaves to their own hormones and their desire to get naked and fool around. It was shocking to see romance brilliantly sprinkled in his aura if he was in love with me it would be a full inferno red when he would look at me. No, he had the first spark of falling in love, but it can't be directed at me. But her own eyes saw the difference in how his aura reacted to her sister and how he reacted towards me. With her sister, it was a concern and some attraction. The difference was palpable she felt her heart race well almost. He's not the first person to have the sparks of love at first sight, but it's the first time it's happened to me. Usually, it's just lust and greed that would swirl in the aura of most young men she met, not the spark of genuine romantic intentions. Hmm even if he isn't her soulmate? He would be a nice friend after all soulmates aren't set in stone. Just like the future it's ever-changing and expanding.

Before now she would say the future is bright and full of hope, but something changed this summer and now the future is filled with hatred and dread something she is upset by. But there is not much she can do. She needs to live for the here and now. Especially since she was miles and miles away from the epicenter of the worst, she hopes.

"Hello, miss I'm Hairo Kineshi she nice to meet you! I'm actually one of the lifeguards for the beach!" He wasn't being flirtatious but his spark of romantic feelings for me seemed to be rising the more he looked at me. Well someone has a legitimate crush on me, while she didn't want to fuel him, though she noticed she had forgotten one part of her body needs sunblock. She didn't want to burn her back I'm still susceptible to getting burned under the noon sun she may not turn red or become unable to move but her skin will peel painfully. And painful to the touch.

"If you don't mind and you put sunblock on her back, please?" He started blow steam out of his nostril his face impossibly red.

"Anything for you milady I would be honored to help you." His blush was rose red she flipped over on her back. She could hear the grumble from all the guys in the circle through the guy with the palm leaf was fine with the arrangement since she gave him her thanks. Attention is enough to keep someone placated, she guesses.

He got the squirting a liberal amount he was massaging her back. She wasn't worried about him getting handsy or touching what he knows he isn't allowed to see. This the same guy who carried a giant log by himself in order to not disappoint his fellow classmates. Finally finishing she felt a weight lifted and she was kind of grateful. He's probably one of the few guys on this beach she trusts not to pull anything with her sister much less me.

"Thank you so much Hairo!" She rolled her shoulder he unintendedly massaged her back. Not that it was in pain, but everyone has stress boy does she have some. Finally loosening a tension stress from she has over everything she has to get done. Taking out her phone as she leans over to her day bag.

"Hey, I know it's kind of sudden, but you seem nice can she get your cell number? She knows you need to get back to guard duty, so she doubts you'll have any more time like this. Plus, I'm planning on swimming she knows I'll be safe with you out there!"

She didn't mean to sound like she was flirting because she can see the crowd fuming and turn tail to get their own phones. What has she done?

"Don't worry miss Mikoto I noticed your number and I have it memorized."

As he got up, he tripped on his feet the swim shorts dropping showed us all his ass. which caused me to giggle she forgot he did that. He picked up his pants and ran to the lifeguard station. She notices his focus while on the swimmers he would look back at me every so often. She lay back letting the sunblock dry enough which was becoming easier since that guy was fanning me. And she thanked that guy every few minutes which caused the guy to kick the sand under his feet and get bashful. Man, even politeness riles these guys up! What is up with these guys. No one is that desperate for the consolation prize that is me. I'm pretty on a good day, not melt into a puddle beautiful like these guys were acting like that. That was her mother and sister. She spent a lot of time protecting them with that thought in mind. Her mom doesn't need her protection she's a telepath and hypnotist anyone wants to hurt her mother will believe they are most upstanding and hardest working prima ballerina the world has ever seen. Mom is no joke nor pushover. Now she needs to make sure the creeps to molest her baby sister the job her mom tasked me with when she was seven years old and punch a group of guys on the playground who tried to take her away older boys. She realized she would she always defend her little sister after that she decided to put me in martial arts and gave me a talking to for actually fight those guys.

She felt right at home swimming for as big as her loner streak is? She was her schools swim team. It was a good way to get a scholarship and the only thing that loves more than water was freshly baked cinnamon bun. She floated lazily her sister was subtly messing with the surf creating surfable waves. Making her lazy float more like laying out at sea. She can hear a rush as the guys from earlier, getting excited. The guys had stopped crowding us and instead decided surfing to get our attention would be the way to go.

"Hey, sis?" She opens an eye to see "Sara" is having a ball playing with the ocean currents.

"Yeah?"

The show is about to begin if she cramps up from laugh will you carry me? She uses her silliest voice. The vision was hilarious, and she just had to see it with her own eyes.

"In your dreams ask the boy toy to save you."

She sticks her tongue out at her little sister not really knowing who she was referring to.

The first fool started paddling out to the waves calling out, he was grinning like a loon as he yelled out

"Mikoto, Sara I'll ride this glorious curl in your honor!" This blonde dingus is confident this is gonna be good. He really seems to think he's the hottest thing since the sun. She could hear the giggles coming from her. The suppression was contagious as she treads the water hoping her sides don't split from trying to stop laughing. She needs to see this with her own two eyes. He paddles out a little further her sister summoning a large wave like out of a movie. It was huge the guy wasn't ready for this and the wavering smile on his face. She could stop the giant smile on her face that was a mile wide.

"Hey, make sure he doesn't hit the rocks?"

"Gotcha."

The wave came but his shaky legs he took the position his stance wobbly like a newborn calf he tries to turn the board only spectacular wipe out. The yell was hilarious and couldn't help the mocking laugh one after something similar would happen some succeeded trying honestly, she was all but busting a gut at their pathetic at impressing her little sister she swears someone from the shore tried a boogie board in our honor and got a face full of sand and he walked away head hanging in shame. It's mean to laugh at them but at the same time she just wanted to spend a day uninterrupted with her little sister and this parade of guys were ruining it and she can even distract them long enough for it sticks. And she can't push her powers right now if she did, she would draw a lot of looks from the passersby and everyone in general. Making her wish winter was here. So, she can ignore that little side effect and use her powers unrestricted. If this how much attention, they get at just the beach? She doesn't even want to imagine school. Considering we are in different grades she can't watch out for her sister if some doofus pushes her boundaries. But watching these idiots go out of their way to impress her little sister? Is hilarious all the same plus if all else fails mom can always a hypnotic suggestion on her little sister, we really don't need the world taking notice of her or us for that matter.

She was doing lazy swim laps. As some of the guys that had been left behind on the beach had followed us into the water. Who thought it prudent to get closer to us in the ocean allowing her sister to copy her movement. But not let the surf carry them away while they stayed where they were. It was a fun day filled with laughs between the two sisters laughing at the guys making idiots of themselves especially considering they forcefully got both their numbers I doubt either was texting any of them. The only person she actually considering texting at all was Hairo himself since he would be the ideal work out buddy while shooting is going on. She needs to keep in shape somehow before she tries out for the swim team and keeping her legs in peak form is a good way to do just that.

That's how the day was spent just watching a bunch of random guys making fools of them for the affections and attention. Only to sabotage them for the most part. But at the same, some didn't need that at all since they were a bunch of gawking teens if Sara so much as waves at them, they pass out from the shock of the action. They had a fun chat with each other and having a splash fight like they were kids again. When we got out of the water the crowd of guy jumped from their position picking up our bag and our stuff asking us where we were heading, some offering us rides in their cars, but I really didn't want these guys showing up at house at all hours serenading the house and Kusuo setting off the sprinklers or worse she couldn't stop the mental wince of them being petrified and placed randomly around the city closets because they are being annoying to me and everyone. I mention we are taking the train and they helped us take our stuff there. I started emitting the feeling of boredom something my sister shrugged off and the guys dispersed quickly as we made our way to the train. making the ride nice and relaxing at everyone was ignoring us.

She felt a sense of relief finally making it to the house the first thing put the basket filled with stuff in the hall closet. The swimsuits already in the laundry because only one thing was truly calling her name more than anything after a day spent on the beach. There's nothing more suit then was taking a shower to get all the sea salt and sand off her body scrubbing all of it off her body. Making sure to get all the crud was in her hair from a day spent having fun with her sister even though she knows it wasn't as fun as she thought since the crowd of guys who were entranced in her little sister and wouldn't stop bugging us and would follow us everywhere.

She could hear her sister happy screams, there was a secondary reason. She took her sister it would give her mom enough to get rig similar to the one her sister had back home since for all we know the government sold her rig or took it for some stupid reason. Who knows? She knew one thing her little sister wanted to question her friendly than the normal attitude towards a certain enthusiastic redheaded lifeguard.

"Hey, big sis?"

"Yeah Val."

"Is that sweaty red-haired guy whose ass we saw? Really, that's you're Mr. Right?" Valeria wiggled her eyebrows suggestively.

"No."

"Then why give him your number and promise to text him?"

"I've seen how nice he is in a pinch remember she knows."

"Mm, big sis just remembers," She turned to me, she was sighing like she was exasperated wiping her face. In that moment, she realized her little sister wasn't as naïve as she thought she was. She was well aware but doesn't want to overly complicate her own life by being a downer. Her powers didn't make people seem to be black and white like mine or mom could, so she tries to do her best and believe the best in people.

"Don't lead a guy on, if you aren't interested. You're a pretty girl you don't want to seem trashy. we still don't know all the rules here you know being flirtatious or super friendly can give the wrong idea. We're not back home being socially reclusive is the norm here. You know the numbers. Hell, you see the future if you don't see one with this guy? Why dangle a carrot of one in front of him? What are you hiding sis it seems like you know something the and haven't told the rest of what it is?"

"Sis, he may not be a soulmate but he's a sweetheart. And a solid friend to have, you know who her soulmate is, and the other options are unreachable currently. We have as much stake in our destiny as the clouds shape it never stays the same length or shape and it changes on whims. I'm going, to be honest, we could end up staying here for a long time, if mom meets her soulmate which I'm going, to be honest, is very likely and none of us going to like this very much, or if you never get in contact with the higher ups. With that in minds, we might not want to go home in the next few years. Better to be and make some friends she knows she can trust then making others force themselves upon me like at Eleanor Roosevelt High."

Valeria (Sara) could feel a shadow just fall over Amelia (Mikoto). She knew sounded dreary but seeing the future sometimes means knowing the worse futures. Her sister seemed to accept that explanation with a raised eyebrow like she wanted to go on about her supposed love affair with Hairo and why him, she is being nice to him. When she usually only nice to family and little kids. Probably wanting to ask her who mom's soulmate was so she can prepare for that if it comes to pass. But her sister was too excited to get started the computer was her first love maybe we should just admit she's a low level technopath because the way she just bypassing the security and somehow already contacting the head of the witness protection with her mother feeding her the legal terms and the fact we can bring up a suit of negligence citing that eventually she would be needed her to be court and they need to send a guard for when that time eventually comes for starters. It was a back and forth with her mother taking no prisoners and telling the head of the department her demands. While reasonable made me proud at how ruthless she was. He mentioned that she needed to be in court in late September for the testimony and it should be wrapped up and resolved by the second week of October. They're more asking about how much breach of protocol and there would be a few people would be fired and the fact that you were asked or even given a choice about location and names goes against the typical procedures and relocation. And the rogue agents in question will never be hired by our government again since there is something very wrong suspect to the method involved since they are something done to innocent civilians

Though they did something even more tricky. They've merged the fake identity with the real one meaning that their so entangled that even if our whole family was free to go home? our last name and our fake names are connected they have borderline erase our actual identities something that irked me when I realized that me being called Mikoto was accurate since it is my name now officially as well as Amelia so it's now contentious about what I call myself at all times.

Her own thoughts were rapidly coming going and going but all a part of a whole as her thoughts. where on the position she was in and the one she left behind. the person she would love to be and the person she was forced to be. And the memories of the year I didn't live. If the kind of person she was She would rather be a loner and spend the rest of high school on the fringes. Someone overlooked and unnoticed that's what she wanted since other people, especially with aura reading where easy to figure out. How someone felt about her child's play. if someone hates her in, she could read it if they find felt about her whether boring or whatever they feel about me was easily read. But PK academy had two routes and the irony of meeting Kusuo cemented you either avoid friendships and they are forced upon you or make your own and assimilate. if I had no powers, I would be able to blend in even be forgotten like the person Kusuo aspires to be the perfectly average student someone who so unremarkable his name would be being called John Smith so plain and forgettable.

My thoughts turned to the so-called 'love' I left behind. Though I never dated him, and I refused to, but my sister would tease me about since she met him. Dylan's interest was more in a desire of conquest nothing long-term or true. His aura gave him away. He was a miasma of teenage hormones and lust. He tried to join that inner circle of friends that had been forced upon me. But in that way, he was like Kokomi. They think their interest is pure in others. Like their doing the world a favor by showing interest in someone "unpopular" and their attentions would make them happy. But they are morons and dickheads, their attraction is superficial once they get the reaction or action, they were hoping for they move on. She was thinking she's sweet, but she sees herself as God's beloved. Who knows maybe Kusuo is right. She, Amelia Vista was more beautiful than Teruhashi Kokomi. It would be just desserts to get her down a few pegs, you don't say God loves you so much without thanking God for such fortune as her grandmother taught me. It brings bad things and luck. She wasn't overly superstitious or religious for that matter. But her grandmother taught me everything she knows about dealing with ghost seeing spirits and auras. Her grandmother taught me the rituals she uses. She's never steered me wrong before. So, her saying to thank god and make sure do so constantly for any good thing that comes your way? She wouldn't say it if there wasn't a grain of truth to it? Right, this is the same woman who knew how to advert fated symbols like the mark imminent of death. Her grandmother was the strongest psychic I've ever met.

Until she met Kusuo who blew her own metrics of psychic power out of the water. Making her own powers feels insignificant and weak in comparison. He was in a class all his own almost on the level of a demigod with the number of powers he contained. Teleport, time travel, telepathy, hypnotism their things like turning people to stone and the ability levitate and borderline fly by doing so. He's too much power in one person she can get the desire to tell everyone screw off. Since they wouldn't get it. She knows that she thought she was uniquely overpowered until she met him. And she comes from a family of psychics. her sister her mom and her cousins all inherited psychic abilities. Different ones but not as much as me. Or as unique. her youngest cousin Margarita used her aura reading and cytokinesis to make her life a little easier. Her brother Franklin was a technopath he and my sister were the same age their more most her first cousins had a variance of powers some of her aunts and uncles, on the other hand, the genes skipped them entirely.

But their some hope of seeing them now that her sister contacted the boss man in charge of witness relocation. maybe we'll all be home by next year then again with what I know is coming. But compared to the wave of insanity and stupid I'm better off staying right here for the time right here at this rate might as well find a way of having citizenship under her real name. She can talk to the rest of her family at this rate! they assume all of us are dead. they knew we are in danger, but they were told we would be able to contact them. that as well I knew I had a lot of things to think about.

My thoughts are rapid fire and I need to calm down I have a lot of time. Plus, I need to relax for tomorrow. I'm going jogging then school shopping tomorrow and I already saw what happened if I go alone to jog. Since I don't want to be harassed by a mob of strangers I don't know. Plus, I want to get away from the shooting of that show and I really don't want to deal with the movie star. Mom is opening her business tomorrow. begrudgingly and I want to show my mom support in her new business. I have no doubt my little sister will find out what has happened to our stuff and finding some way to communicate with everyone. So, inviting Hairo is the best option plus he wouldn't let some idiots mob me. Though I have to be clear I don't know the town and that his help would let me get used to it. That isn't a date and I was interested in friendship thankfully I can foresee how to do just that.

Final note: The concept is simple. I'm essentially doing a character rebooted to a stronger more knowledgeable person. That's interacting with the world, without the main character taking the show. Since the story is from both of their perspective and not just Kusuo's. Mikoto because that's who she is, she is a main character, who both need a lot of attention and development. Maybe I just really like dual the main perspective. Where the main character isn't just one person but two people. Who have personalities while similar are very different people. I'm trying something different using third person perspective something I've never done constantly since it takes a lot longer because it's not my style and I honestly feel like the chapter is lackluster because I changed my format to try something different. I'll probably update this next month. mostly because I'm playing catch up with all of my fics not just this one.
