Chapter 3: Royal Garden

Me: Morning, I am soo sorry for the super long wait. I kinda got distracted with my other story and I have started another one! Which is exciting but I have gotten very distracted from this story which is starting to get more popular!

Yumi: You Bastard you have abandoned us!

Me: Excuse me, I ended up drawing your transformation with Chim but with that attitude I'm not adding it to my profile.

Chim: Wasn't the explication enough?

Me: Apparantly not, and to make up for almost giving up on this story I promise to reach five thousand words!

Katena: Admin has no life

Me: Yes I do... I have so much Anime to watch so little time..

Yumi: Baka

Ikuto: Please R&R

Su: Thats my job!

Ikuto: Not anymore!

Su: (。-_-。)

Me: Wow that is a long introduction chat thingo...

*Yumi's POV*

'WAKE UP YUMI-CHAAANN' What time was it? I groaned shifting to my side, was it worth opening my eyes? Oh well, I forced my eyelids apart to see Katena's face well in my face. She grinned like the Baka she was and tugged on my arm, the floor was getting abnormally close. Bang!

'Oucchh, God Kata-chan ((A/N: Nickname)) why did you have to fucking wake me up!'I grumbled gathering myself, my cheek really hurts. Memories of yesterday flooded my mind, how could I forget! Yesterday I woke up in a random bed in the city, found some eggs, I was enrolled in a huge school met a really princely guy also know as Hotori Tadase,I slapped him, confessed to him and then found my self in a hole in a construction yard on top of that perverted cat ear cosplay guy Ikuto!

I do annoyingly know that, that guy is Ikuto, I did read Shugo Chara to Katana when she didn't understand the kanji, so I pretty much knew the whole story.

Over on our desk was little basket with four coloured eggs, it wasn't a dream. Ran and Miki were awake, Miki had hatched just last night, I guess because Katana believes so strongly that she didn't need to wait for Art. My most recently born egg Chim had already awoken from the noise, Su hadn't hatched but I knew exactly what was going to happen, I was going to make a tart base, it breaks and she floods the place with dough what fun.

'Oh my god Yumi, it wasn't a dream!' She squealed and hurried through the wardrobe filled with Amu's clothes.

'I wish it was' I groaned and pushed myself out of the refuge of my, I mean Amu's bed towards the wardrobe. Katana ignored my retort and continued her morning rambling.

'We are living the Otaku's dream!' she chipped shaking me back and forth.

'Katana fuck off, lets just get today over with' she pouted and shook me harder.

'Now, now Yumi be nice to your sister' tutted Chim crossing her arms in disapproval.

'But today we are going to go to the royal garden!' She chirped and skipped out of the room with Ran following close behind cheering her on.

'The royal garden, I forgot...' I murmured, I quickly packed my things away and placed Su's egg in a lime green flannel I found. Downstairs Ami was singing like usual on a small stool with our dad, I mean her dad taking loads of photos.

'Mama, Papa, Ami-chan we are leaving now' bowed Katana.

'Oh Sayonara' peeped Ami who suddenly broke into a song about saying goodbye.

XXXX

I heard whispers around me, I knew I never should have come to school today. I waved goodbye to Katana who happily skipped to class, when In my room I found my seat and stared out the window.

'Yumi-San that was so amazing hat you did yesterday' a girl with brown hair and her friends surrounded me and fired compliments at me.

'That was so brave'

'Yumi-chan likes the prince!'

'Can I call you Yumi-chan?'

'Sure' I managed and they giggled excitedly. The door opened suddenly and everyone turned to see Nadishiko standing at the door, she walked to me and handed me an invitation to the royal garden.

'Come to the Royal Gardens after school with Katana' she lowered her voice 'It's about the guardian Characters'. I sighed as more girls them before cornered me firing questions and chatted away.

'Maybe they are going to invite you to be a guardian!' They will.

'That would be cool and maybe they will make a whole new position for you!' Spot on.

*Katana's POV*

'KATANA-CHAAAN' screeched the ace grabbing Katana by the shoulders. I jumped and laughed at Yaya, we not surprisingly had become great friends after the first day and we are even in the same class.

'YAYA-CHAAAN!' I Mimicked grabbing Yaya's shoulders and giggling like crazy.

'Katana-chan, Nade-chi gave me this invitation to give to you!' Chirped Yaya handing me the invitation I was waiting for. My invitation to the Royal Garden.

'Thank you Yaya-chan' chirped Ran who was hiding in my bag.

'Katana-chan you have a Chara!'

'I know'

'Whaat?! Since when?'

'Since I read the mang- wait never mind...'

'Hmm ok, but Yaya still suspicious'

XXXX

*Yumi's POV*

We are here, the Royal Garden. I quickly fixed my hair in the reflection of the glass and headed inside, it was prettier then in the manga. Flowers and trees growing around the path, a small fountain to finish it off. At the end sat Tadase, Nadeshiko, Yaya who waved at Katana and Kukai with his usual goody grin.

'Please come in Hinamori sisters, we have been waiting for you' said Tadase holding his hand out, now that I think about it he is really creepy. We sat down and waited for someone to speak.

'Now don't be tense girls' soothed Nadeshiko, seriously the crossdresser is telling us not to be tense.

'I love Nadeshiko's scones!' Squealed Yaya taking five scones from the plate and shoving them into her mouth. I looked across at Katana, she was about to burst into a massive fangirl fit this is not good. I tried to stop it but it was to late.

'I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO TRY YOUR SCONES NAGIHIKO-KUUNNN!' She screamed, too late. Everyone turned around half creeped out half confused, and stared at her hug him crazily.

'That is a fucking secret Katana!' I shouted which didn't seem to stop her.

'What did she say?' Managed Kukai pointing as if she was an alien. Which in this situation we kinda were.

'Gommenasi, it is a very lo-'

'AND TADASE-KUUUUNN WHY DO YOU HATE IKUTO HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG, I HAVEN'T READ THE NEXT ISSUE OF SHU-' before she could continue I shoved a bucket over her head a skill I learnt watching Rima, which after a few seconds she calmed but sat in a far corner.

'Why does she know so much about us' said Tadase, by the looks of his eyebrow twitching he was pretty creeped out. I sighed and stood up.

'Please like I said it is a long story, but because of certain circumstances we can't tell you Gommen' I said bowing, the others swapped glances and gave us a second chance.

'We will save that question for later then' said Tadase sipping his tea. After the conversation got back together we spoke freely and Katana returned making sure not to break out again.

'Oh Temari-San is so cute' smiled Katana holding Temari in her hands, even Chim, Ran and Miki came out to play. The other guardian characters came over mingled excitedly with the trio. Tadase coughed slightly gathering the attention for the table and announced.

'We would like you to join the guardians' Oh hell no that fricking cape goes way over my style, that is a big no no! I looked over to Katana, you could see in her eyes all she wanted to say was Yes but that would go completely against the story.

'No' I said simply, looking over at Katana her soul was escaping.

'What!' Screeched Yaya 'BUT WHYYY!'

'Its the cape, it is fucking terrible' I said simply

'Is that...it?' Questioned Kukai

'What do you fucking mean "Is that it?" That cape is completely put of my style, that is defiantly it'

'Hahaha! This kid is hilarious' chuckled Kukai 'Success' I growled as he flicked Katana and I on the head. We sat in silence until Katana tapped me on the shoulder and whispered.

'We are meant to run away Yumi-chan' oh yeah, I put my stuff away in my bag and told Chim to follow Katana out.

'I am sorry but no' I said and left with my bag over my shoulder, easy peasy.

XXXX

*Katana's POV*

Yumi and I walked to school with the usual Hinamori Amu attitude and crowd, in the corner of my eye I saw a small boy. Ah, that's Amu's fanboy. He held a not with a large red heart on it, he nervously approached. Suddenly I felt two hands grab my wrist, I turned to Nagihiko-kun. Yumi stopped and glared.

'Gotcha! Shall we walk to class together?' She gleamed winking.

'Nagihiko-kun, what do you want?' Replied Yumi coldly, Nagihiko was a little shocked and held a hand up to my ear.

'How do you know my secret?'

'Like I said it is a long story, but I promise to keep your secret safe' I chirped and put my hand on his shoulder 'We know everyone's secrets' I added. He smiled and pulled Yumi to class and I went to Yaya who was chatting with Tadase.

*Yumi's POV*

Nagihiko dragged me along until we stopped outside the food tech rooms, I stared his in the eyes for explanation.

'You know Tadase's birthday is coming up' he smirked

'Yes, why do you want me to make something for you to give to Rima' I covered my mouth, I shouldn't have said that!

'Who is Rima?' He asked innocently.

'No one, you will meet her next year' I said covering it up, he nodded and pulled me into the room where he put on an apron and handed me a recipe.

'I am going to help you make a tart for your Tadase-kun!' I blushed like crazy. I don't want to make this tart but I will have to because it may well ruin the story. A specially when Ikuto listens to him confess...

'F-fine' I stuttered.

She helped me make the tart base and we placed it in the oven and when it was finished I took it out and placed it on the bench. Katana came in with Ran and Miki and gasped when she saw the tart.

'You made the tart already!' She giggled and danced around it.

'Katana-chan do you want to come with me to pick some fruit?'

'Of course Nagi, I mean Nadeshiko-chan!' They hurried out of the room so I sat and watched Miki draw the base. She was very good, it even had shading.

'Yes, the end' I looked up and saw Ikuto sitting on the window ledge with Su's egg in his hand! I stood up and got ready for Amu's best line in this issue!

'You're the perverted cat eared cosplay guy!' I screeched

Hey you.. Cospl-' he stumbled but I butted in

'How did you get in!'

'Cause I am a cat' he said simply, he put out his tongue and licked Su's egg! What a fricking creep! 'The third Egg, this must be the embryo'

'Fucking give it back!' I said taking a leap to grab it from his hands which failed and we landed with him on top his arms on either side of my head. I blushed, we were so close it was incredible.

'Why are you trying to steal my eggs?' I said 'What is the embryo?' He smirked, what a hentai! I swiftly kicked him where it hurts and shuffled across the room away from him. Nagihiko and Katana ran into the room, Katana gasped and looked on the verge of fangirling.

'Thats far enough! I see you have left yourself in you thieving cat!' He turned to me with a smile 'Are you ok Yumi-chan?' I was about to reply until Katana blew it.

'IKUTO IS NO THEIVING CAT HE HAS BEEN THROUGH A LOT DONT BE MEAN, HE HAS TO PUT UP WITH HIS SISTER WHO HAS A MASSIVE BROTHER COMPLEX' she paused and looked up at Yoru 'OH MY GOD IT'S YORU!' She screamed chasing Yoru around the room to Ran's cheers. The egg that was once on the floor had risen into the air and out popped Su!

'Su is here, Thanks for waiting!' She chirped 'Chips, Syrup, Whip!' Suddenly a large beater appeared in my hands and the place began to flood with dough carrying everyone away, including me. Slowly the character change diced down and I looked up, it was Utau! She turned to Ikuto and scowled him.

'Ikuto, what are you playing at?' She said pointing a finger at Ikuto.

'Utau..' Ikuto said slowly 'the sisters last egg was not the embryo'

'We have business to attend to, lets to Ikuto' she turned to me 'don't play dumb you are after the embryo too, sorry but we are going to find it first. It will grant Ikuto and I's wishe-'

'Dont say so much Utau, lets go' he said pushing her away and put the door.

'Yumi-chan, the tart is broken' sniffed Su inspecting the remains of the tart with Nagihiko.

'Its so cruel after how hard we worked on it. And we don't have enough to make another' added Nagihiko. Strangely I began to tear up.

'Its not like me to do this anyway' a tear drop falling onto the ground 'He probably doesn't even like tarts...'

'But we have enough mixture to make cookies!' Chirped Katana holding the mixing bowl under our noses.

'Character Transformation a different snack!' Shouted Su, a green clover appeared in my hair.

'It's not a tart but..' Mumbled Nagihiko

'Cookies!' Sung Katana 'And thanks to Miki it comes with a picture of the cookies!'

'We did it!' We sung together

XXXX

*Katana's POV*

'Pink!' Said Ran in a high pitched tone

'Blue!' Chirped Miki

'Green!' Pipped Su

'Purple is a very royal colour, so shall do very well as a colour for Tadase' debated Chim. She was very good at getting her way.

'I think we should do red' I said to Chim's disappointment. Yumi came in with a bottle of milk in hand, I sighed. She really was like Amu, except Yumi would resort to violence. She skulled it easily and when finished wiped her mouth.

'I agree with Katana, red would be best' she smiled, I tied the box with a red ribbon and couldn't help but smile too.

'It looks really good!' Sung Su fixing the bow and admiring it.

'Don't forget a note with it!' Complained Chim pulling a sheet of paper and pen. I took it and thought.

'Become a girl that is simple and cute!' Shouted Ran, next thing I knew I was writing a super sappy note.

"Dear Prince,

I really do love you so, think about me when you eat these.

From the shy Hinamori Sisters, I Yumi will be waiting for your reply 3"

After my character change stopped I read the note, WHAAAT! Yumi looked over the note laughing like crazy.

'You know you only said that I will be waiting for his reply!' She gasped.

'Like I would send this!' I yelled chucking it onto my desk. 'You guys a-'

'Gwate' I turned to the door, dammit it's Ami!

'AHHH! AMI!'

'Gwate!' She lunged forward grabbing Ran 'Big sissies wat is dis?'

'These are Guardian Characters' Yumi said stepping past the desk dropping a paper into the open bag with the box, she had Su in her hands.

'Gwadian Cwacter?' I nodded and showed her Miki and Chim.

'Now this is a big secret from Mama and Papa, so don't tell them anything' Yumi added putting her finger on her lips.

'Yep!' Chirped Ami saluting and marching around the room with all the characters in her arms.

'Yumi-chan, Kata-chan help us' they shouted desperately.

XXXX

'Sorry I am late Nagi, umm Nadeshiko-chan!' I called, I was pooped all this running just because Yumi wouldn't get out of bed. Yumi caught up behind me panting heavily.

'Oh that's ok, let's go' after a few minutes of walking we found ourselves outside of the Hotori household.

'Woah, it's massive' I gasped.

'Its traditional Japanese style, I guess we will just ring the bell'

'Wait!' Yumi shouted, too late he rung it. I dropped the bag and pulled Nagihiko and Yumi behind a bush, I peered around the corner. Tadase peered out and looked around he shrugged and took the bag, when he was gone I realised my grip from Nagihiko's mouth.

'Sorry about that, I panicked' I admitted.

'Thats ok, but you almost chocked me!' Whined Nagihiko

'Thanks Nadeshiko-chan for coming' mumbled Yumi

'That's ok Yumi-chan, I have to go'

'Bye Nagi...Nadeshiko!'

XXXX

Me: Cutting it short today, I am unsure wether to have her sneak into house!

Yumi: Me or Katana?

Me: Well I am unsure, because I want Yumi with Ikuto. But for a major Amuto scene she needs to have this happen!

Ikuto: Oh Yumi is mine *licks lips*

Yumi: Σ(゚д゚lll)WTF

Katana: Who do I end up with?

Me: That I don't know, not Kairi he is Yaya's, either Kukai (even though I do ship Kuau) or Tadase even though I am sure he is gay

Tadase: I am sure of my sexuality that I defiantly am not homosexual ( `∧´)

Me: You can tell yourself that, but it can't change the truth.
