-Dramatic Flashback #5-
When we got there...we saw a figure...he was dressed in a black coat with a hood on (If you ever played the kingdom hearts series, awesome game series, then you should know what it looks like). We quietly approached the stranger with caution and hid behind the tall grass. He was standing in front of Ikuto's grave, he seemed to be looking at it and was like, in a trance of some sort. I took a step forward and a twig snapped, great...he lifted his head up and looked around. We didn't get to see his face clear enough to identify him, but when he saw us, he ran away before we could ask him anything. We looked at the grave, and we saw...Yoru's egg...
-End of Dramatic Flashback #5-
*Noises of the daily city life...honk honk...blah, blah, blah...then zoom in on Amu's house*
-Amu's P.O.V.-
"ehmmmm...," grumbled Amu, she was still in deep thought about who the man in those robes were yesterday when they visited Ikuto's grave, and why Yoru's egg was there. Of course she took his egg and put it in the basket with Ran, Miki, Su, and Dia's eggs too, but she just couldn't stop thinking about that mysterious man! Who was he, what was he doing at the grave, so many unanswered questions! She was still in deep thought when...
"Amu! Someone's here to see you!" called her Mom.
"Hai!" answered Amu as she snapped out of her little trance and ran downstairs. "Who is it Mama?"
"It's Tadase and Kukai, along with Utau," she said with a smile. When a certain someone heard the names of the two BOYS...you can guess what happened next...
"AHHH AMU! I FORBID YOU TO HANG OUT WITH THOSE TWO...oh, Utau's with you...ok then never mind, at least there's another girl with you, that's fine with me..heheheh." said Papa as he started heading to the bathroom with a bag of chips.
"Papa, you'll have to come out eventually, cause I have to go potty," said Ami.
Well we can say he had to come out..ANYWAYS!...back to the little group of friends...
"So, where are we off to now?" asked Amu, she hoped that today was finally the day where they go to the new refurbished park.
"Well, I don't know, where do you guys want to go? I'm up for anything," said Tadase.
"HEY! Why don't we go to the amusement park that was just fixed up! I heard that it was lots of fun," said Kukai with a big grin on his face.
"Yeah I guess, a singer like me needs to have fun once and a while too," said Utau.
"YOOOSH! Let's go!" yelled Kukai, drawing attention to some people passing by.
-At the Amusement Park-
"WOAH!, it's so cool!, look at the roller coasters, the waterslides, the scary houses, the food stands, the bumper cars, and..and...WOOO THIS PLACE HAS EVERYTHING!" yelled Kukai with great excitement as he grabbed Utau's hand and pulled her to the nearest roller coaster. Which left Amu and Tadase alone.
"Well Amu, you want to ride anything?" asked Tadase.
"Hmmm, I'm not really sure, but, we could look around and talk, maybe we'll find a ride we'll like," suggested Amu.
"Yeah, good idea," agreed Tadase as we started walking towards the direction of the teacups...the...teacups...
"It's a really nice day out, isn't it Amu?" asked Tadase.
"Yeah, it is...," said Amu.
"Huh?...this place reminds you of Ikuto, doesn't it...," asked Tadase sadly...he also missed his Oni-san.
"...mhmm..," replied Amu. She remembered the first time she ever went to this amusement park, it was with Ikuto. This was where Ikuto and I first opened up to each other...the night where it all started...this place...*thump*, "oh sorry sir," said Amu, apologizing to the person she just bumped into. "Ah!...y-you!" said Amu pointing at the man in the black robe coat thing. "You were the one at the grave."
Tadase looked at him too, and also recognized him. The mysterious stranger started to run so Amu gave chase. Tadase followed and called up Kukai and Utau for some help. They were soon out of the park and they somehow ended up on top of a building. All four of them cornered the stranger and was about to ask him some questions when he jumped to the next building. Amu wasn't going to let him escape without answers so she CTed with Ran and jumped after him. Tadase and the others did the same and sooner or later, the stranger came to the edge of the city. They finally had him cornered.
"Answer us...who are you and what were you doing near Ikuto's grave?" asked Amu. But she didn't get an answer.
"...Are you listening! Who are you? What were you doing near his grave? Why did you have Yoru's egg? Did you used to know Ikuto? ANSWER ME! ANSWER ME!" screamed Amu, with streaks of tears coming down on her cheeks.
"Maybe if we capture him, he'll be more negotiable!," said Utau as she charged at the stranger.
Utau may have good speed, but the stranger's reflexes were too fast and he completely dodged the attack, which cause Utau to run to the edge of the roof and she didn't stop fast enough, Amu, Kukai, and Tadase started running towards her, to try to save her...but...it was...already...too...*SMACK*
Amu, Kukai, and Tadase were in shock...the mysterious stranger grabbed Utau's hand and caught her just in time!
-Utau's P.O.V.-
"Phew, that was too close...but I wonder why the mysterious stranger would rescue me, is he really not that "bad" as we thought? I mean, yeah sure, judging him like that without knowing him isn't right, but he seems so suspicious..." thought Utau. She then looked up to thank him when she saw his face... "Ah...you're!," the stranger put his finger on his lips to gesture her to be quiet.
"Utau...don't tell anyone...call me and I'll explain everything to you...until then..keep quiet...," whispered the stranger.
"Hai...Oni-sama..."
Panda: OOOO I just gave away the identity of the stranger by giving you a HUGE hint. Can you guess who it is? hmmm? give me your guess in the reviews section...but I'm pretty sure I'm going to get one single name...Other than that, I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter and that you will look forward to the next one.
