Photobooks: Chapter 3.

"Ah… Shut up, newbie!" exclaimed Yobio. Sora glared at her.

"Hey, don't you dare to talk at me like that!" said Sora as she pointed to Yobio.

"Guys, stop it!" exclaimed Ichi, with an uncaring voice. You could see she didn't even care, but was very annoyed by the two.

"Ich is right… You don't have to be so noisy…" said Yobio, and folded her arms. Sora looked at her.

"What? You call me noisy? Have you ever listened to yourself?" asked Sora. Yobio rolled her eyes. Then, they heard the speaker making some noise.

"Ichi-chan, Sora-chan and Yobio-chan. Please come to my office" they heard Gumi say through the speaker. Yobio and Sora stopped arguing, and quietly walked towards Gumi's office. When they arrived at her office, Yobio knocked on her door. "Please come in" said Gumi.

"What is it, Gumi?" asked Yobio.

"Since you three are a very good team," began Gumi. Sora and Yobio groaned. "I want you to examine the earthquake near the Northern Gate" she continued. The three nodded, and walked away. They got to their rooms, put on their black clothes, and walked away from the headquarters.

"So, an earthquake? How boring!" exclaimed Sora and threw her arms in the air.

"You're boring too, so deal with it" said Yobio, and glared to Sora. Sora immediately glared back.

"You two, shut up! It's annoying!" said Ichi. They were in a black car, going towards the Northern Gate. Yobio and Sora looked at each other, glared, and then both looked away. The car stopped, and the three got out. When they got out, they saw a big green gate, with green leaves around it. They looked around, and saw that most of the houses were destroyed.

"Ah, sad for the people who don't have a house now" said Yobio. Sora rolled her eyes behind Yobio. "Don't you dare to sigh right now" said Yobio, knowing that Sora was about to sigh.

"How the heck did you know I was going to sigh?" asked Sora. Yobio turned around to her, and smirked.

"I can predict future, remember?" said Yobio. Sora sighed, and rolled her eyes.

"Well, back to business… Why was there in heaven's sake an earthquake here?" asked Ichi. Yobio put her finger on her chin.

"Ich has a point. A natural disaster never occurred here at the Northern Gate" said Yobio.

"So, why did it happen now?" asked Sora. Yobio groaned.

"How must we know? Maybe it has to do with a dark power" said Yobio. Then, the ground began shaking. Yobio looked up, and saw a girl with black hair standing near a destroyed white building. Yobio grabbed the hand of Ichi and Sora, and ran towards the girl.

"W-What are you doing?" asked Sora, trying to get away from the grasp.

"There is a girl" said Yobio, and stopped running. She panted, and stood a few meters from the girl. "What are you doing here? It's dangerous!" exclaimed Yobio. The girl turned around, and stared at the three in front of her.

"They blew up the building…" she said quietly.

"Huh? They? Who are they?" asked Sora.

"Please, get out of here, so we can examine this rare earthquake" said Yobio as she pointed to her left.

"No" the girl simply said.

"Geez, you're hard to handle… Get out of here before you get hurt!" said Yobio, her voice rising.

"NO!" she yelled, and the ground began shaking again. When the shaking stopped, Yobio looked at her.

"You are the one who caused this… Why?" asked Yobio.

"Izumi, if you think clearly, it may have been because they blew up the building" reminded Ichi Yobio. Yobio thought for a second, and then came up with an idea.

"We have to report this to Gumi. You," began Yobio, and pointed to the black haired girl. "Come with us" she said. The girl shook her head.

"It's better if you come with us" said Sora. "We can help you" she said.

"I can't trust anybody right now…" the girl said. Yobio smiled a gentle smile, and walked towards her. She held out her hand.

"Don't worry. You can trust me. Please, come with us" Yobio said. The girl got tears in her eyes, and shook her head again. Yobio stepped one step to her, and hugged her. The girl widened her eyes. "If anything happens, you will have friends beside you. I am one of those friends!" she said. The girl nodded while trembling. Yobio extended her hand again, which made the girl grab her hand this time.

"Izumi, the car is here" said Ichi. Yobio nodded, and smiled to the girl.

"We can definitely help you" said Yobio. She led the girl towards the car, and sat beside her. Then, Sora and Ichi followed Yobio to the car, and sat in front of them.

"Gumi, we have found the cause of the earthquake…" began Yobio as she entered Gumi's office. Gumi stood up, and smiled to the black haired girl next to Yobio.

"Hello! Who may you be…?" asked Gumi. "Oh, how rude of me. I am Megpoid Gumi, the leader of The Rebellion" said Gumi.

"I-I am Shizuko Maki…" said the girl, supposedly Maki.

"We want you to join The Rebellion, can you?" asked Gumi. Maki shifted a bit with her feet, and looked at the ground. "You can think over it, if you want" said Gumi with a gentle smile.

"I'll think over it…" said Maki. "But, if I may ask, can you afford a room to me…?" asked Maki. Yobio almost forgot.

"Oh, that's right! Maki is the cause of the earthquake at the Northern Gate, and all the houses were destroyed, so supposedly; her house is destroyed to. Can you please give her a room here?" asked Yobio.

"Of course I can! I am not that cold-hearted as that Kaito…" said Gumi.

"Was someone talking about me?" asked a man's voice. Gumi looked up.

"Who could possibly talking about you, my dear?" asked Gumi sweet. A blue haired man entered the room, with an ice cone in his hand.

"Well, the only one I heard talking about me is… You" he said and pointed to Gumi. Gumi sweat-dropped.

"Maybe it is because you are the one who is cold-hearted" said Gumi. "Anyways, Yobio-chan can lead to your room!" said Gumi.

"Of course" said Yobio with a sarcastic tone. "Let Yobiokosu do the rest…"

"Oh, by the way. Sora-chan, you have to take a test. It was my mistake you got a mission without passing the test. Would you mind to do it tomorrow?" asked Gumi. Sora shook her head.

"No, not at all!" she said with a smile.

"Newbie…" muttered Yobio. Sora glared at her.

Next day.

"Shizuko Maki-chan, please come to my office" said Gumi's voice through the speaker. Maki stood up from her bed with a frown. Then, someone knocked on her door.

"Oi, Maki. Should I led you to the office?" asked Yobio. Maki nodded. A few minutes later, they stood in front of the door. "Well, good luck!" said Yobio as she walked away with a wave. Maki gulped, but entered the office.

"Ugh, Kaito-kun… Please get out!" said Gumi as she pointed to the door where Maki was standing.

"Okay, Gumi-chan!" Kaito said happily as he hopped to the door. "Oh, hi!" Kaito said, as he passed Maki.

"Maki-chan! Glad you're here! Hope you thought about joining The Rebellion?" asked Gumi. Maki nodded. "So, do you want to join?" she asked. Maki nodded again. Gumi smiled. "Oh, I am so happy we have another new member! As I said to Sora-chan, you have to take a pass to join The Rebellion officially. Do you want to take it tomorrow?" asked Gumi.

"Yeah, sure…" Maki said.

"Thank you so much, Maki-chan!" said Gumi. Gumi stood up, and walked to a small table in the back of the room. "Tsukine Sora-chan, please come to my office" she said, as she pressed a button. A few minutes later, Sora entered the room.

"YO?" she began.

"Sora-chan, I hope you are ready for the test?" asked Gumi. Sora nodded. "Alrighty! Then, let's begin!" said Gumi and smiled.

"Uh…" she began. "Can I take a shower first…?" asked Sora.

"Of course" said Gumi. Sora quickly ran away.

Inspire-chan (2011): Hello! Oh, I am so terribly sorry I didn't update the last few days. You see, I get bad grades at my school, because I sleep during class, and escape from it. And, I was moving to another building. Why? The orphanage I first lived at, doesn't really like me, so they send me to another orphanage (: (Psst. If you don't know, I am an orphan!)

So, about this chapter… Shizuko Maki is No Account's OC.

I have an awesome idea! I will make a Photobooks sequel, when I am done with Photobooks, which will take about 30 chapters… I think! All the characters mentioned in the story, will take part in the sequel too!

About the reviews, I am so honored! I just have three chapters, and I already have… 17 reviews! Thank you all for reviewing this… amateur-story (:

No Account, if you are reading this… Can you possibly tell the relationship of your OC and Izumi Yobiokosu and the others? And, would you please tell me also a black outfit you can wear during the missions? Thank you!
