Amethyst: Here's chapter 7! I decided not to make you guys/girls wait because I'm in a good mood and I have free time. Also I wouldn't mind having AT LEAST 5 reviews per chapter.

Yaya: Yaya's going to be very important in this chapter.

Rima: How can you be important and you're not a spy?

Amethyst: You'll see! By the way, did any of you learn French since your next mission is in France.

Kairi: As an agent it is mandatory to learn various foreign languages so some of us already know the language and then they are OTHERS who know that we are going to France and don't even attempt to learn the basics.

Ikuto: Somehow I think Kairi's referring to me…

Amethyst: Anyway I have to start the story if you don't mind. Hey, where are the Team Royale agents?

Utau: Who knows and who cares?

Kukai: Hi blondie! Did you miss me?

Utau: No.

Amu: We are not letting 'B' fall into Easter's hands. Just letting you Easter agents know early.

Nagihiko: Dream on!

Rima: You don't stand a chance…… purplehead!

Nagihiko: Blondie!

Nadeshiko: Not again…

Amethyst: Yaya, please do the disclaimer!

Yaya: Hi everyone! Ame-tan doesn't own Shugo Chara or any of the songs mentioned in the previous chapter! Enjoy the story please!


Ikuto's P.O.V

I had gathered my team in my room and we had to discuss our trip to France. Kairi went to receive the full details on our mission from the director because if I went to him things wouldn't be pretty.

"What do we have to do tomorrow, Kairi?" I asked while trying to beat Nagihiko at a Naruto game on my Playstation 3.

"Well, it's different to missions that we have had in the past. Some parts of the requirements you all will not be in favour of." Kairi answered and his eyes still moved across the information that he was given.

"What do you mean? Explain, Kairi," Utau said.

"First of all, there are no more company planes available at the moment so we have to travel on a public plane in first class. Secondly, 'B' is located somewhere in La Rouge Palais. There will be a masquerade party being held there by the owner's daughter and Easter managed to get our names on the guest list but we have to go by our real identities due to certain circumstances beyond our control."

"WE HAVE TO WHAT?"I shouted and paused the game.

"You can't be serious Kairi," Utau looked at him in disbelief.

"We don't go anywhere in public without disguises or something to cover up what we actually look like and I would like to keep it that way," Nagihiko stated.

"We don't have a choice unless you would like to defy Easter," Kairi said calmly.

The room was silent for a moment and no one moved. Defying Easter at the moment was out of the question.

"But…… what if they see us…." I said slowly.

"According to what I have found out the other agents shouldn't be able to use disguises or fake identities either and it's a masquerade party so as long as you keep your mask on your face no one at the party will know who you are."

"I guess that's fine," I mumbled.

"We leave for France early tomorrow morning so let's get some sleep." Nagihiko yawned and left my room. Kairi left next and Utau left after she hugged me.

"Seriously when will she ever get over me?" I groaned.


AT THE AIRPORT

Rima's P.O.V

Remind me again why I'm here, at the airport at 4:30 in the MORNING ON THE WEEKEND?!? I usually don't even attempt to get out of bed until 10:00 on the weekend. Amu and Kukai were the only two sensible people who got up at decent times other than me which means that Nadeshiko is the only one who looked like they had had a good night's sleep while the rest of us looked like zombies. I sat in the waiting area of the airport waiting for our flight to be called. Why I am taking a public plane? Guardians had to send most of the private jets for repairs so we had to take the public planes. To make everything worse, we couldn't use disguises or fake identities at the party in France so we didn't bother to use any disguises at the airport.

Nadeshiko and Amu insisted on making me look "extra cute". They put my curly, blonde hair in a ponytail with two gold barrettes. I wore a white spaghetti strap dress with thick gold ribbon wrapped around the bodice. At the bottom of the dress were gold swirls and a cute butterfly pattern and I wore simple white slippers with gold rhinestones. After what they did to me all I have to say is 'I'm so glad I'm not wearing heels.' To top it all off I had a gold butterfly necklace, diamond butterfly earrings and a matching bracelet.

Amu wore a long sleeved pink and black striped top, a sleeveless black hoodie, white capris and black, pink and white heelys. She wore a black paperboy hat on her pink hair which was let down and she had plain black bracelets on her wrists.

Nadeshiko was dressed in a white V-neck top with a denim jacket, a purple, pink and black plaid skirt and black stilettos. Nadeshiko's hair was braided and she also had sparkly nadeshiko barrettes.

Kukai wore a black long sleeved shirt with a green T-shirt over it and jeans. He wore green sneakers and a baseball cap.

"Flight 726: Tokyo, Japan to Paris, France. First class passengers this is your boarding call. I repeat: First passengers for Flight 726 this is your boarding call. Thank you." (A/N: I don't remember what they actually say so forgive me if it sounds weird…)

That was our flight and we quickly boarded the plane. All of us were separated and my seat was right next to…. YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!!!! Believe it or not… my seat was right next to that purple haired boy that I had seen before at school a couple of days before. What was he doing here? His golden eyes looked up at me, he recognized me as well and he looked away in fear. I regained my usual facial expression and silently took my seat beside him.

"You can't avoid me for the whole flight y'know," I said in my outer-character voice.

He flinched and slowly turned to face me. His look of fear instantly turned into a smile. Wow, that's an instant mood change!

"I know, I'm sorry for giving you the impression that I was avoiding you. You just surprised me, is all." He said smoothly. His voice was a bit girly but it was comforting and was kind. His eyes sparkled and I was captivated by him for a few seconds.

"I… um… it's okay. What's your name and why did you run away that time when we were in the classroom alone?" I lightly blushed and briefly gazed into his eyes. He froze again and tensed.

"M-my name is… um… R-Rizumu and I uh…. ran away because….. I… was startled by y-you." Rizumu half-smiled.

"I'm sorry about that. I just had a slight problem that day," I truthfully answered.

"So what's your name?" He asked.

"My name is…. Maria." I lied. He came from Japan so he could not know my real name and he seemed shady and mysterious.

"Maria. That's a nice name. Is that your friend in the seat in front of us? She's beautiful and she seems nice," Rizumu said softly.

"That is my friend but you are not allowed to get close to her."

This boy was nice but I just couldn't let him near Amu because some times Amu could be very oblivious to the fact the many boys liked her.

"Why?"

"Because I say so."

"Since when does your opinion count?"

"Oh, haven't you heard? As of this minute, I am now the supreme dictator."

"Oh really?"

"Yep!"

"Wow, I never knew that they gave dolls such important positions."

"Shut up purplehead!"

"Make me… Barbie!"

We shot each other death glares and the plane took off that same moment. I sighed; this was going to be a loooooong flight.

1 hour later

The stupid Rizumu boy is touching my hair. Does he have any idea how long it took to get it looking this good? I smiled at him and then I reached out and yanked his hair.

"Ooooowwwwww!!!" He yelled, grabbed my hair and pulled it harder than I had pulled his.

"OOOOOOWWWWW!!!" I screamed. The hair pulling contest got worse and worse until strands of our hair started to come out and our hair was a tangled mess.

2 hours later

We got our hair untangled and I'm feeling sleepy. Maybe if I go to sleep I won't have to see purplehead's face.

1 more hour later

I can't get to sleep because someone keeps staring at me. Someone save me now….. please?


Many more hours later

"Finally! The torture is over!" I collapsed right onto the huge bed of the hotel we were staying at. Amu, Nade-chan and I were sharing the biggest room in the hotel but that wasn't a problem because it was HUGE! Kukai had his own room because he's a guy.

"I am so tired. The guy who was sitting next to me on the plane was just like Ikuto although he looked nothing like him." Amu sighed and sat in a chair.

"It sounds like all of you had a great flight." Nadeshiko said sarcastically.

"Very funny, Nadeshiko," Amu said.

Nadeshiko smiled and started to unpack. I stared at her for awhile and Rizumu's face appeared in my head. Why does that ugly monkey's face have to come into my head?

Nadeshiko looked up at me and realized that I was staring blankly at her, "Is there something wrong Rima-chan?"

"Rizumu, Nade-chan, I saw this boy on the plane who-"

"Amu, Rima likes a boy that was on the flight!" Nadeshiko cut me off.

"No, I just-"

"Really?" Amu continued and ignored me.

"Yeah, she's in denial!" Nadeshiko carried on with her story.

"I AM NOT!"

"I see what you mean," Amu was now on Nadeshiko's side.

"I never thought that I would see the day when Rima's in L-O-V-E!" Nadeshiko started to go all dramatic.

"I AM NOT. You're not listening to me."

"What's he like?" Amu asked.

"He must be the boy of her dreams: romantic, cute, sweet and caring!"

"Okay, you two have officially LOST IT!"

Amu and Nadeshiko continued to act like idiots over Rizumu. I didn't even get to tell Nadeshiko about their similarities.


Nagihiko's P.O.V

I was sitting in Ikuto's hotel room waiting for him to get ready. I was dressed in my tuxedo and my hair was combed. Ikuto finally stepped out of his bathroom in his clothes for the party.

"Nagi, help me with this tie. You're better at things like this," Ikuto sighed and handed me his tie.

"Okay," I stood up and began to help him.

"So Nagi… who was that girl you were talking to on the plane. It seemed like if you knew her from somewhere before,"

"Her name is Maria and we kind of know each other… yet we don't."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Ikuto, I saw at school once with my actual looks but we never spoke to each other. Then I spoke to her on the plane and I lied to her by saying my name was Rizumu." I finished tying his tie.

"Another fake name, Nagi?"

"Yep but she is a very interesting person." I smiled as I remember the flight with Maria.

"Nagihiko likes a girl!" Utau shouted from the doorway. I spun around and glared at her.

"How long were you there?" I asked.

"Long enough to hear about your girlfriend, Maria!"

"I don't like her! She can be a total brat sometimes." I defended.

"Oh really?" Kairi whispered.

"It's time to go, Team Midnight Sky." Ikuto walked out of his room and the rest of us followed behind him.


La Rouge Palais- 10:30p.m.

Still Nagihiko's P.O.V

We arrived at the place in a black limousine and there was a red carpet leading into the giant red palace-like building. Ikuto usually took charge of all of the missions that we went on but this time it was different. Kairi and I were the only ones who could speak French. We walked up to the building and a woman holding the guest list greeted us.

"Bonne nuit, madame." I said in a sweet voice and smiled. (Goodnight Mam./Mrs./Madam)

"Bonne nuit monsieur. Comment vous appellez-vous?" The woman smiled at all of us. (Goodnight Sir/Mr. What are your names?)

"Je m'appelle Fujisaki Nagihiko. Ils s'appellent Tsukiyomi Ikuto, Sanjou Kairi and Tsukiyomi Utau." ( My name is Fujisaki Nagihiko. Their names are Tsukiyomi Ikuto, Sanjou Kairi and Tsukiyomi Utau.)

"Enchanté madame!"Kairi said politely. (It's a pleasure to meet you Mam./Mrs/Madam)

"Merci, Monsieur Fujisaki, Monsieur Sanjou, Monsieur Tsukiyomi et Mademoiselle Tsukiyomi! Bienvenue à la fête de Yuiki-sama." The woman allowed us to get in. (Thank you, Mr Fujisaki, Mr Sanjou, Mr Tsukiyomi and Ms Tsukiyomi. Welcome to Yuiki-sama's party.)

"Yuiki? Isn't that Yaya's surname?" Kairi whispered.

"Yaya's in Japan, dummy." Utau muttered back.

We put on our masks and walked inside to find the interior fancily decorated and many people dancing.

"Usually I would say to split up but since only two of us can speak French we can only split into two groups." Ikuto started to speak and then a man on a stage began to speak in French. Kairi translated every out loud so that Ikuto and Utau could understand.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen. I hope that you are enjoying yourselves and now we would like to invite Miss Yuiki to say a few words," Kairi translated. The man walked off the stage and Yaya walked on. Yes, the Yaya that was SUPPOSED to be in Japan. Yaya was dressed in a yellow, knee-length designer V-neck dress and frilly yellow ribbon in her hair. She wore a diamond necklace and yellow lace-up ballerina shoes; she took off her mask and began to speak.

Kairi continued to translate, "Hello everyone! I hope that you're all doing well and that you're having a great time at my masquerade ball birthday party. I need help to guess my birthday present so if you have any ideas, feel free to come and tell me. The only hints that I have is that it's hard and very beautiful so anyway I thank you and goodnight."

The man came back on again and Kairi translated yet again, "Yaya's birthday present will be presented to her at midnight so guess if you want but I don't think any of you will come close."

"Change of plans. Yaya said that her birthday present is hard and very beautiful so maybe it's the jewel because her parents have to be rich to host a party like this in France. They said that would be presenting it to her at midnight and it's 10:45 now so the hiding place can't be far away and most likely there are many guards at the jewels hiding place. At 11:45 we take out the security cameras and then at midnight when they present the jewel to Yaya we knock out everyone, take the jewel and run. Any questions?" Ikuto said smoothly.

"Nope. It all makes sense." I said.

"Until, it's time to start our plan; can we join in the party?" Utau asked excitedly.

"Go right ahead." Ikuto said and walked off.


I was sitting down in a far off corner of the room and many girls tried to flirt with me or ask me to dance but I turned them all down, politely of course. I sighed and stared at the dance floor Utau managed to get a dance with a tall, messy, brown haired boy with green eyes (A/N: Sounds like Kukai. Maybe it is.) and she was laughing and having fun. Kairi was talking to a girl and he also was enjoying himself. Ikuto was nowhere in sight but most probably he was relaxing as well. Easter agents are nothing more than tools so we had to treasure this time we had to relax. Another group of girls were heading towards me but they looked like s**ts. There were at least ten of them so I got up and started to leave but they ran after me.

"Why can't I have a peaceful night," I whispered to myself and started to run away.

I finally found a small storage room and I closed the door behind me and the girls ran right past it. I was safe for now and I sank to the floor and sighed in relief.

"Rizumu? What are you doing here?"

I turned and behind me was the petite blonde girl, Maria. She was wearing a short, light blue, strapless dress with beads around the bodice and lots of pearl jewellery: pearl earrings, pearl necklace and pearl bracelets. Also she wore white high heels.

"I was invited, obviously," I answered, slightly happy to see a somewhat friendly face.

"Okay. Let me re-phrase that. Why are you hiding in here?" She asked innocently.

"Girls: They want to hit on me and get me to dance with them or something. What is your problem?"

"The boys are after me but I don't mind that much because they could be my servants," Maria murmured.

"If you don't mind, why are you hiding?"

"A fight broke out because the boys couldn't decide who would get me a drink."

I laughed loudly and clutched my stomach that was the stupidest thing that I had heard the whole day.

"Shut up! They might hear you and find me!" She whispered loudly and quickly reached to cover my mouth but…. you might be able to guess what happened… yep, she fell on top of me. Maria blushed and quickly tried to get off of me but in her haste she just fell right back down again.

"Maria, do you like falling on me?" I helped her up and dusted off my clothes.

She blushed even more, "No way, girly-boy!"

We talked and laughed together in the storage-room until the janitor found us. We went back to the party and ignored our fangirls/fanboys.

"May I have this dance, Lady Maria?" I bowed and then held out my hand for her.

"You should really ask me in French but I guess I will accept your offer," She placed her hand in mine and smiled.

"But that's what makes me different from the French boys; I can speak your first language." I led her to the middle of the dance-floor. She and I danced together and outshined everyone else. Although I was better than her, she still tried to keep up with me and look elegant while doing so. Everyone stopped dancing just to watch us. I didn't really care about anything else at this moment other the two of us; she was beautiful.

I looked up at the clock and it was 11:43. Time to carry out my job again; really it is sickening.

"Gomen Maria-chan. I have to go but we'll meet somewhere again. Adieu ma princesse."

I walked away from her and she reached to grab me back but she stopped halfway and left as well.

"Gomen Maria…" I whispered softly when I had exited the room. Ikuto, Utau and Kairi were waiting for me.

"Let's go," Ikuto said emotionlessly.

The security control room wasn't that hard to find and there were three guards outside.

"Can I take out one, pretty please?" Utau whined.

"Fine but this is a man's job," Ikuto whispered.

"Pssh! Whatever!" Utau rolled her eyes.

"I'll stay back here while you guys have your fun; 20 seconds should be enough, right?" Kairi said and Ikuto nodded because this was normal.

Kairi didn't know how to fight but he knew how to use any weapon and he was the brains of the team.

We began to walk towards them and as soon as they spotted us they stared at us and began to tell us something in French. Of course I could understand them but Utau and Ikuto couldn't so they kept walking until they were a meter in front of them and I followed.

"I don't know what he is saying so let us rid of him," Ikuto said with on his face.

"I agree!" Utau said cheerfully. We began to beat up the guys and within 5 seconds they were knocked out cold. Kairi stepped out of his hiding place and advanced inside the control room. There was one guard inside but he was sleeping so we knocked him out in his sleep. Kairi put a virus in the security camera system and he pulled out some wires and cables.

"Phase 1 complete," Kairi said in a monotone.

"Come on! We have to go now or we'll be late!" I shouted.

We ran back to the party and made it back with a few minutes left to spare but this time we were not allowed to do as we liked because the critical moment of the mission was about happen.

"I hate waiting!" Utau whined.

"Shut up Utau!" I muttered.

"As if I would listen to you, lover boy."

"Who are you calling a lover boy?"

"You! Everyone saw you with that short, blonde girl and you were all smiles and happy!"

"I don't like her! She's just a friend and it's not my fault that I'm not allowed make friends."

"You can't make friends but you just made her your girlfriend!"

"Shut up both of you!" Kairi yelled and covered his ears.

"Make us!" Utau and I shouted in unison.

"Ikuto, it's time for the usual," Kairi mumbled.

Ikuto held Utau's wrists in one hand and covered her mouth with the other hand. I knew what was coming next. Kairi grabbed my hair and began to pull on it; it was painful.

"Apologize Utau," Ikuto whispered in Utau's ear and released her.

"I'm sorry, Nagi," She said in a barely audible tone.

"Accept her apology, Nagi," he pulled even harder on my hair.

"Apology accepted," I said quickly as Kairi released my hair and I rubbed my aching scalp.

"It's time," Ikuto whispered.

Yaya walked up on stage and a sparkling gem descended out of the roof. It was the one we were looking for; it had the mark on it.

"Utau," Ikuto said.

"I'm on it," Utau murmured and pulled a string on her bracelet. The room filled with smoke and all of us pulled on masks. Everyone in the room started to cough and fell to the ground. We walked over the stage and four people were already there and were about grab the gem. The smoke cleared and I could see them. One of them was the guy that Utau was dancing with, the next one was the girl that Kairi was talking to, the next one looked like Amu from the flight and the last one was… was… Maria. I stared at her and was unable to move for few seconds.

"Don't touch it!" Ikuto said emotionlessly and pointed a tranquilizer dart gun at the boy. He took two steps away from the jewel and Ikuto's eyes never left him.

"How could you?" I said coldly. The small blonde looked up at me.

"You're one to talk. I didn't know that you were like this," She answered back.

I smirked, "Maria isn't your real name, is it? Your name is Rima; from Seiyo Academy back in Japan."

All eyes were on us. She gasped and then stared at me, "I can't believe that I actually believed you Nagihiko, it's funny, isn't it?"

"I guess it's true. You can't really fully trust anyone especially a spy." I fake smiled and walked up to her.

"Maybe but I don't think that Ikuto, Utau and Kairi liked the turn of events."

"That's okay because Amu, Kukai and Nadeshiko don't like it either."

"I guess so. Is that what you really look like or are you telling more lies?" She casually asked and looked into my eyes.

"I'll say yes but it's up to you to choose if I'm lying or not,"

"Same here," she whispered. Utau ran in front of me and punched Rima; Rima blocked it and leg-sweeped her. Ikuto fought with Amu and Kairi fought against Nadeshiko with a nearby stick. I walked up to Kukai and he smirked at me.

"Don't you want to fight for it too and don't worry I nearly always play fair." Kukai said.

"I don't see why not," I replied and punched in his face.

"ARRÊTEZ!!!!!!!!!"

All of us looked back in the direction of the scream. Yaya sat in a corner of the stage with her face tear stained.

"How did she not get knocked by the smoke?" I asked Utau.

"Beats me," she replied.

"Even those losers wore masks," Ikuto said.

"WE ARE NOT LOSERS!" Kukai shouted.

"Right…" Kairi said. Yaya began to speak in French until I cut her off.

"Yaya, we're Japanese and not all of us can speak French," I said.

"You got that right," Kukai mumbled.

"I escaped the smoke by hiding back-stage and holding my breath till the smoke was gone. Then I came back out to see all of you fighting and I…" Yaya seemed to be afraid of us.

"Look, all we want is your birthday present," Amu said calmly.

"No! Birthday presents are special and I could call the police for criminals like you!" Yaya shrieked and pulled the gem into her arms.

Ikuto grabbed her, "You better don't even think of doing that."

"Put her down," I said and Ikuto reluctantly dropped her.

"If we could somehow give you a replacement present; would you let us have this one?" Nadeshiko asked.

"I suppose but I want it now," Yaya said looking at the stone.

Kukai walked up to her and pulled her close. She wasn't afraid because he was being gentle with her and his eyes had a look of kindness in them.

"Happy Birthday Yaya," He whispered and kissed her. Yaya was shocked but when he pulled away Yaya blushed heavily and pulled the gem into his hands. Kukai turned around and smirked. He quickly threw a smoke bomb and when the smoke cleared Team Royale was gone.

"We are seriously in trouble now," I mumbled. The director will be waiting with our punishment back at home and it wasn't going to be pretty. Not at all…
