A.N- Thanks so much for all the reviews, follows and favorites! You guys are awesome! I just wanted to tell you I'm not going to be following the anime mainly because I can't watch it on my computer and my tv isn't hooked up to Netflix T.T. I'm a poor baby right now, so I can't get it on my xbox either. I do know about the sad ending for Mikoto though. Inspired by the nightcore version of The Wolf by Phildel. I'm rambling, I'll get to the story now!


Stepping into the store, I grabbed a basket and made my way through the aisles. My left hand held my phone as I texted my roommate, wondering if we needed anything other then the usual things. Though I doubt she'd be able to answer as by now she would be at work. I grabbed some green tea, spices, and some bread. I hummed quietly as I moved down the baking aisle.

"Ah!" I cried as I bumped into someone and barely keeping myself from falling onto my butt. I looked forward and saw him. My body froze as my mind processed the white hair. It was him. The one who shot the boy. I stepped back as I tried to calm my panicking mind. My mind was screaming for me to run away but the logical side was telling me to not run, for it could cause him to run after like a predator would run after their prey.

"S-S-Sorry," I stuttered out as I continued to back away slowly. I could see the confusion on the boy's face but something must have clicked in his mind before he began to make large gestures.

"Oh, no! You got it wrong! It wasn't me! That was somebody else, I swear!" He cried waving his arms around in the air. I shook my head as I turned and quickly bolted to the check out lines. I usually wouldn't run from someone but the feelings I got from him really freaked me out. It was like there were two people in that body. Something really dark and crazy hung around him like a second skin. I didn't want to stick around to find out just what that thing was. I looked back to see him coming this way as well and hoped the check out person would go faster. I didn't want to be around him any longer than absolutely necessary. Quickly paying for the items, I grabbed the bag and sped walked out of the building.

Looking both ways, I crossed the street and headed towards my apartment. I ignored anyone else on the sidewalk as I tried to put distance between us. My body shivered as it released the tension when I got a good distance away. I gave a tired sigh as I walked down the sidewalk.


*Hours later*

I sat on my couch reading a book while occasionaly sipping on some green tea when I heard the apartment door open. I turned to see my roomate walk in with a few people I recognized from the confrentation a few hours ago.

"What's going on, Kasumi?" I asked as I marked my page and closed my book. I set it on the table and stood up to face them. I saw Anna hiding behind the men and watched as she pushed them around. She barreled straight over to me and I gave a small smile as I put my arms around her.

"They saw me coming back and asked if they could come up," She said and I sighed but nodded in consent. I moved Anna around so I could sit back down with my legs apart then pulled her in between them. She leaned back against my chest as I watched the small group get comfortable in my apartment.

"What really brought you guys here?" I asked staring at them. There were only five of them, including Anna, which was weird to not see all of the group but it seemed normal. You had the King, the second hand man-Izumo, the vanguard-Misaki, Tatara who was the main caretaker of Anna, then Anna-chan herself.

"Anna-chan wanted to come see you," Tatara replied. I nodded as I leant her forward so I could fish-tail her hair.

"Kasumi, can you bring out some drinks and food for our guests then?" I asked my roomie polietly. She gave a groan but went to do as I asked anyways. She knew if I really wanted, I could order her to do anything as she was one of my clansmen. I only have three so far like Kasumi, her younger sister Natsumi, and Kali. We weren't a clan of fighters, but healers instead. Kami knows we need healer clans when the other clans go battling against each other.

She set drinks and snacks on the coffee table before disappearing into her room for a few mintues. I watched her enter the hallwaybathroom with a bundle of clothes and towels. She was going to take her daily unwind baths. Using one of my many hairbands on my wrist I tied the fish-tail braid and smiled at my handy work. She reached behind to pull it over her shoulder to see it. She turned and gave me a hug.

"Your welcome," I murmured as I watched the group talk quietly amongst themselves, well except for the King who was watching me.

"Go show him," I urged her and she nodded standing up. She walked over to him and began to show him her new hairstyle. I gave a grin as I stood up and walked into my room to grab somethings. I grabbed a not-yet-released cd and a few books that had music notes on my music. I brought them into the kitchen where I grabbed a sharpie and wrote a small note to Tatara before signing each one.

Walking over I waited for him to finish explaining something before handing the items to him. His eyes lit up with joy as he took ahold of the items before leaping up and hugging me tightly. I chuckled as I patted his back.

"Thank you so much! Is this you new cd? It hasn't even been released yet! And music sheets on your music! Awesome! Thank you thank you thank you!" He cried gushing over the items I had given him.

"Thank you for being such a big fan of mine. I love seeing you guys enjoying my music," I said giving him a motherly type of smile.


A.N- I guess my link to the pic of her apartment never showed up, so if it didn't here is the link to it. www. royalcourtsapts images / floorplans/ 3br_ lg. gif
