It's me! And with me today is...

Kukai-Yo people!

GDMFG-Kukai is here so it JUST got fun in here!

Kukai-We're going to do this and that and the other!

GDMFG-But before that! Kukai, you know what to do!

Kukai-Yes boss! Shugo Chara belongs to Peach-Pit and Kenji Yasuda. GirlDeMoFanGirl only owns her OC, her Charas and the story. If she did own it than I would be the champ at every sport and would NEVER have to leave the Guardians!

GDMFG-I never wanted you to leave!

Kukai-Well I'm here now so let's play some ultimate frisbee!

GDMFG-Oh heck yes!

Kukai-Alright! Everyone enjoy Chapter 2: Seiyo Academy! All Hail the Lone Royal Part 2!

What does Lone Royal mean exactly? Yuriko thought as she walked through the halls. She could hear someone talking next to her about where everything is but she stopped listening a long time ago. She already memorized the school's map during the summer.

It seems that you awed the kids so much that they gave you a title Miss Kazumi answered before making a little giggle. Only you can impress everyone on the first day. I don't expect anything less from you Milady.

Oh Miss Kazumi I need to ask you something. May you please give me a hint for the riddle you told me? I'm afraid I still don't have a complete understanding of what…

"Hey" a voice called out and a hand touched her shoulder.

Yuriko looked at the hand in disgust.

"I know we didn't get off to a good start but I'm showing you around so you won't get lost so…"

Yuriko wasn't paying attention to the voice. Instead she was looking at the hand that interrupted her important conversation with Miss Kazumi.

"Hey are you even listening…"

"Who are you again?" Yuriko interrupted.

When Amu realized that Yuriko wasn't listening to her, she tried to call her name but got aggravated when she was ignored. Honestly why did the teacher make her show Yuriko around? It was clear that she didn't like her. Maybe this could be a chance for them to start over? But looking around a lot of students was watching them in wonder so she has to play her Cool & Spicy character.

"Hey are you even listening…"

"Who are you again?" Yuriko interrupted.

Amu was taken aback by the girl's bluntness but was able to get back into character quick. "You already know me Usagi–san"

"No I don't. I've never met you until now"

Was this girl serious? How could she forget who she was so quickly? They just left the class about five minutes ago.

"We're in the same class and I sit right next to you. I'm Hinamori Amu, the girl you argued with, remember?"

Yuriko pulled on Amu's sleeve to lift her hand off her shoulder. "Well then, Hinamori–san, please don't ever put your hands on me. I don't want any dirt on the clothes my aunt worked so hard to get"

Amu looked at her like she grew two heads. "It's not my fault! Maybe if you were listening to me…!"

Yuriko scoffed as she wiped her shoulder with her hand. "Think about it, Hinamori–san. If I wasn't paying attention to you, then you clearly had nothing interesting to say"

Amu was shocked at just how mean this girl, the same girl whom Nadeshiko sang high praises about since this morning, was.

"The score is: Yuriko–2, Amu–chan–0!" Ran suddenly yelled out.

"Amu is frozen stiff–desu" Su said as she poked the girl.

"Do you not bathe?" Yuriko asked.

Amu thawed out and looked at Yuriko confused. "What?"

"Do you bathe? You probably don't. Why else would such strange insects hang around you? You must smell like a dumpster"

The pink–haired girl looked at the pale blue–haired girl shocked. The only things that were around Amu were her Shugo Charas; the beings that are invisible to everyone expect those who have them as well. The fact that she's acknowledging them means one thing…

"She can see Shugo Charas?" Tadase asked.

Amu was able to get all the Guardians out of their classes and into the Royal Garden. It wasn't easy and she owed a lot people and lot of favors, but she did it. Amu nodded her head. "Well she called Ran and Su insects and suspects that they follow me around because I don't shower but yes"

"Only Ran and Su? Where was Miki?" Yaya asked as she looked at the blue Chara.

"I was hiding beside Yuriko drawing her choker"

Ran tilted her head at her little sister. "What choker?"

"The black one with the white charm on it, Ran. It's the only one she had"

Nadeshiko nodded. "I remember it. Riko–chan told me her mother gave it to her"

Kukai put his elbows on the table. "Now that you mention it, we don't have any info on her parents…"

Nadeshiko looked to the side. Truth is…Yuriko's mom have been missing since she was 3…

"Who's that?" a six–year–old Nagihiko Fujisaki asked.

He and five-year old Yuriko Ichijou just came to Yuriko's home after Nagihiko's performance. He was so happy to be sitting on his friend's bed in a regular T–shirt and sweats with his hair down. It felt good to not be dressed like a girl after he had to for a whole week. His mom allowed him to stay over for two weeks and Yuriko has an indoor basketball court. Oh yea Nagihiko was going to take full advantage of this situation.

"Who's who, Nagihiko–onee–tan?" Yuriko asked back as she changed into her white pajamas.

Yea Yuriko's changing while Nagihiko's in the room but he knows she trust him. He never peeped once…Well except that one time but he was curious and she doesn't even know it and besides he liked what he…Wait…What did Yuriko say?

"It's not onee–tan! I told you its aniki!"

Yuriko smiled at him as she grabbed her comb, brush and some hair ties. "Sorry Nagihiko–aniki–tan"

"That's not even a…Whatever, just come here, Yuriko" Nagihiko gave up as he helped the girl climb her unnecessarily big and tall bed, sat her between his legs and started doing her hair.

"So who was aniki–tan talking about?"

"I was talking about the woman in that picture. The one that's on your new dresser"

Yuriko looked at the picture he was talking about. It was of a woman with long pale blue hair and ocean blue eyes sitting on a stone wall.

"Oh that's Riko–chan's mommy"

Nagihiko stopped combing Yuriko's hair. "Your mom? But…Isn't Harumi your mom?"

"Harumi–chan is Riko–chan's nursemaid. Riko–chan's mommy doesn't live here. You're so stupid Nagihiko–aniki–tan" The girl laughed at the boy.

Nagihiko looked at the back of the laughing girl's head. He had no idea that Yuriko's mom didn't live with her. He always thought that Harumi was her mom. Hearing that she's not…It made him feel sad for some reason.

"Aniki–tan what's wrong? Why'd ya stop?"

Now that Nagihiko thought about it, Yuriko always called his mother mom. He didn't think any of it but now…

"Aniki–tan, are you there?"

Yuriko, Harumi and Rokuro are the only ones in the mansion. If Harumi isn't Yuriko's mom then…Is Rokuro not her dad?

"Aniki–tan?"

Is Yuriko, little cute and happy Yuriko who lives her life without knowing any pain or hardships, an orphan?

"ANIKI–TAN!"

Nagihiko jumped and looked at Yuriko who was next to his ear. "What?"

Yuriko looked at him worried. "What's wrong, aniki–tan? Aniki–tan left for a long while. Is aniki–tan good?" She put her hand on his forehead. "Aniki–tan's head feels good. Maybe aniki–tan has tummy troubles?"

Nagihiko gently held Yuriko's had that still rested on his forehead and smiled at her. "Onee–tan"

Yuriko looked at Nagihiko confused. Nagihiko chuckled. "I'm saying that you can call me onee–tan"

"But won't aniki–tan get mad?"

The boy shook his head. "Calling me onee–tan makes you happy right? Then please call me that as long as it makes you happy. But in return…"

"What do you mean by in return?"

"In return, I get to call you imouto–hime"

Yuriko tilted her head and smiled. "But that's two different things silly"

"But look at that smile. It makes you happy when I call you that. I'm gonna do it even if you say no"

Yuriko shook her head. "No it's ok. Onee–tan can call me imouto–hime and I call you onee–tan!" Yuriko jumped on him and gave him a big hug. Nagihiko hugged her back and smiled. He didn't know if Yuriko knew a reason that her mother didn't live with her and was trying to be strong or if she was blissfully ignorant to it situation. He probably would never know. But, if he can keep that smile on her face and make sure it never falls…

"Onee–tan let's play game!"

If he can protect her from all types of hardships then…

"Onee–tan, help me!"

"I'm coming!"

Then maybe he doesn't need to know.

After that Nagihiko has always stood by her side and protected her. No matter what, he was always there for her and in return she was there for him. But hearing just how rude she's been to everyone lately…

"Nadeshiko!"

Nadeshiko jumped and looked at Tadase's Shugo Chara, Kiskei. "Huh?"

"Are you ok?" Nadeshiko's Shugo Chara, Temari, asked.

"You spaced out a bit–dechu" Yaya's Shugo Chara, Pepe said.

Nadeshiko laughed a bit. "Oh sorry about that, I was thinking. What were we talking about?"

"We were talking about having her join the Guardians" Kukai's Shugo Chara, Daichi, answered.

Kukai pointed to Amu. "And Amu over here is confused and throwing tantrums"

"I'm not throwing anything! I just wanna know why?"

Yaya propped her arms on the table and thought for a while. "You know I think I saw something in The Heart's Egg but it wasn't talking about Amu–chi being the Joker. It was talking about someone else"

"And this someone else is…?"

"The Heart's Egg named her the Angel..."

GDMFG-Boom baby! Kukai give me my money!

Kukai-Aww can't I give it to ya tomorrow?

GDMFG-Hmmm...Fine I'll allow this. Hey I think the story's over

Kukai-Hmm seems like it

GDMFG-Well I'll start cleaning up. Kukai if you would be so kind

Kukai-Yes ma'am! Comment and rate. Criticism is welcomed as always. If you do I'll give you a BIG kiss -.^

GDMFG-Kukai stop flirting and help me!

Kukai-Yes ma'am!
