FIGHTING MYSELF [ SHURA JIBUN ] by: Michelle Newcombe pre-viewed by: Joan Frazier

~Prologue~

Amu smiled as Ikuto brushed along her side, a soothing but amusingly feline expression of comfort soothed her. He stretched out next to her as if Amu was a frightened kitten to be guarded. Maybe I was, but only at the moment. Either way, sleeping next to Ikuto successfully chased away the memories from my dreams, giving me a peace of mind. For the time being. The sun felt wonderful on her bare arms. Amu could not remember the last time she had simply lazed an afternoon away in the sunlight. That tho, was exactly what she decided to do. Every one, even Amu, deserved a break. She had not slept much lately and the soft grass bed tempted her untill she finally gave in and dozed . . . .

THREE YEARS BEFORE:

~Amu~

" Stay away from me!" Amu held up her baton prepared to defend herself with Spiral Heart. "Please." The cloaked woman and shugo chara chimed through their hoods sarcastically. " I know you've been following me! I bet your EASTER's new puppets!??" Amu spat. " Ya, right! Those low lives! Well lets get to the chase. I need you for a certain project to inshore EASTER's elimination." " But . . ." " I know, I know. I picked you because you got the right DNA for project AW, and no there is no one else who has this special gene pattern in their DNA." The sly woman explained. Thinking she was just a nut case I lied, " Um . . . I'll think about it" ( Big mistake! ) " Than I will see you soon, but I'm warning you. You will regret waiting for this, " and with that she diapered into the allies shadows. Regret what? Ikuto is still missing . . . does she know where he is!
