And just a reminder after I had finished this I just went on ahead and posted it. Meaning I didn't check through it for mistakes and for illogical stuff I'll let you, the reader, do that for me, just this once...ok? I'm just tired...I'm taking a nap. Zzzzzz.

Crystaline: Yay! *glomps Henry* And now on with the ficcy!

Henry: I doubt you'll ever stop doing that...-_-;

Chap. 7

"Sigh..." Samantha looked out the window in her room. It was 5 'o clock, one more hour before she had to go to the reunion. She had some thoughts about not going, many worries, would the people she knew remember her? Would they welcome her or will they reject her? Would they remember she was a very mean bully who only cared about herself? All of these concerns and more clouded Samantha's mind.

"What's wrong, Miss. Samantha?" Brass asked as she entered the guest room that Samantha was in. Samantha noticed that Brass was holding a tray that had a single cup of tea on top of it. "You don't look so good."

"Nothing." Samantha said flatly.

"I brought you some tea, I hope you like it." Brass nears Samantha and holds the tray up to her.

"Thanks." Samantha brings the warm cup of tea to her lips and takes a small sip. "Think we'll see everyone there?"

"Of course!" Brass said optimistically.

"Oh." Samantha looks out the window again and begins to drift off into her own deep thoughts.

"Is something wrong?" Brass looks at Samantha. "...don't you want everyone to come?" Brass looks at Samantha as she drifted off into her thoughts.

'...oh, Kenichi.' Samantha thought, she sits down in a chair and puts her head down on the desk infront of it. 'I don't want you to be there but at the same time I want to see you.'

"Are you ok?" Brass said. When she gets no response she then decides to leave her alone.

'...why can't I forget you?' Samantha hits the desk frustrated and begins thinking about all those broken promises Kenichi made to her back then.

~"I'll never leave you."~

~"We'll be together forever."~

~"I promise I'll give you all the love I can give you!"~

~"I'll never leave you for another person..."~

These promises kept on repeating and repeating itself in Samantha's mind over and over, causing her to get more frustrated and angry all at the same time.

"Maybe I shouldn't go..." Samantha says after awhile.

"I think you should." Erika was standing at the entrance of the guest room. "You need to see all your old friends again."

"But-"

"No buts! You came all the way here to go and then you decide not to go?" Erika said with her arms crossed. "Your going and for whatever reason makes not want to go just ignore it and have a good time! You can't be sad for the rest of your life for that reason, you need to move on and stop living in the past, so get up and lets go to that reunion!"

"...thanks." Samantha smiles and gets up. "You know, you should really be a motivational speaker."

"What! Look, I'm just saying that cause I'm worried, that's all." Erika blushes and remembers all the other times she was told that.

"*ding dong*" Erika's doorbell rang throughout the house. "*ding dong*" This continued until Erika opened the door. Behind was Spyke and Sloan, Spyke was carrying Peppercat in his arms, the medabot was shining like a brand new medabot.

"We brought Peppercat's new body!" Spyke holds the medabot up. "I hope Peppercat like's what we did with her body."

"I'm sure she will." Erika gets out of the way so Spyke and Sloan could enter. "Spyke, Samantha's in the guest room, it's the very first room to the right!" Erika points to the room Samantha was in.

"Ok, thanks!" Spyke walks over to the room. Sloan is about to follow but gets stopped by Erika.

"Where do you think you're going?" Erika says in a giggle. "...Spyke and Sam need some alone time together."

"Um, right." Sloan says getting the idea.

"Besides, we still have thirty minutes before the party!" Erika heads into the kitchen and gets a coke.

~*~

"Boss?" Spyke slowly opens the creaky door. Samantha was looking out the window, she was again in her little world thinking. But after Erika's speech she really wasn't thinking 'much' about her worries. "I brought Peppercat's body back, she's as good as new!"

"Huh?" Samantha turns around. "Hi, Spyke!"

"My, body?" Samantha's medawatch said. "I hope it's ok." Peppercat's voice sounded as if it were waiting for the worst to happen. Samantha pops the medal out of her medawatch and inserts into the medabot.

"Mewrow?" Peppercat's once lifeless body begins to fill up with energy. "...I feel great!" Peppercat says surprised. "As if I had been barely been taken out of the box."

"Yea, well, I'm sure weren't expecting me to make it worse than it used to be..." Spyke says a little offended about the fact that Peppercat was so surprised about him doing a good job.

"...oh, don't get so insulted!" Peppercat said. "I'm quite grateful for the great tune up!"

"It was nothing!" Spyke said now more cheerful and sits next to Samantha. "So are you almost ready to go?"

"Yea." Samantha says flatly.

"Ok..."

After awhile of just sitting there doing nothing, the doorbell rings once again and Erika answers the door once again, the door reveals a woman in her late 20's, her hair was a light orange and behind her were two guys arguing about something, a third more younger looking guy takes this as an advantage walks beside her, and behind all of that a cute couple waiting in the limo, the guy seemed awfully familiar to Erika.

"Hi, Erika!" It was Karin, and she seemed as cheerful like she was 17 years ago. "I thought maybe we could take you to the reunion!"

"Huh?" Erika looked confused. "How did you know where I live?"

"Well, technology is highly advanced today! And besides I see you in the news everyday!" Karin said in a giggle.

"Right...and I take it that's Ikky and Koji, and the one beside you is Rintaro..." Erika says now recognizing everyone.

"Right on!" Rintaro congratulated.

"But is the couple back there...is that who I think it is?" Erika looks harder at the couple. The woman was hugging him so hard that he was turning blue.

"Yea, it's Henry, you don't know Crytaline yet. They make such a cute married couple!" Karin looks at the two back there.

"I get to stand next to Karin!" Ikky yelled.

"No, I will stand next to Karin!" Koji yelled back.

"Ikky and Koji are getting along so well!" Karin said happily.

"Like I said before...If you see that you need glasses." Erika crosses her arms and strangely stares at Karin. "Well, let me get Sam."

"Sam?" Karin says confused. "You mean Samantha?"

"Yup! The one and only!"

"That's wonderful!" Karin says happily. "Everyone is going! I was a little saddened when I knew that not everyone could attend but this is great!"

"Yea, and you don't have to go thru the trouble to look for Spyke and Sloan either cause they're here!" Erika moves out of the way so Karin could look in. Sloan and Alexandra were playing video games and you could here some muffled voices in the guest room.

"That just wonderful!" Karin starts heading back to her long pink limo. "Well lets go! We can't keep everyone waiting!" After that, Erika went and got everyone into the pink limo. While they were riding it occurred to Samantha that Karin, Koji, and Rintaro never went to their school.

"Karin?" Samantha said as she held Alexandra in her arms. "How did you know about our reunion?"

"Ikky told me! After that, I told Koji and Rintaro! They were glad to come, especially after I told them who I was invited by!" Karin said in a giggle. She then started adjusting her pink dress that was just above the knees. "And Samantha, how's the weather in Osaka?"

"Huh?" Samantha says surprised that Karin knew where she lived. "...it's fine."

"That's good." Karin looks at Ikky and Koji arguing. "Those two get along so well!"

"...sigh." Erika sighs as she looked at Ikky. 'I wish Ikky would give more attention to me.'

"C-c-Cystal!" Henry finally choked out. "Your choking me!"

"...oh, sorry!" Crytaline lets go and blushes letting her brown hair with red streaks fall infront of her face. "...Henry!" Crystaline begins to snuggle Henry, she begins to whisper something in Henry's ear making him a little disappointed about something.

'Kenichi...' Samantha again looks out the window. 'Will I see you there?' Samantha thought. For some reason she was hopeful that he'd be there and at the same she hoped that he would roll down a hill with barbed wire wrapped around him and that he falls off a cliff.

"Sam...we're here!" Karin said snapping Samantha out of her thoughts.

"Metabee...you've been quiet this whole time." Ikky said finally noticing the silence in Metabee. Samantha had barely noticed that he was there.

"...huh? N-n-n-nooooo! You just made me lose! I was on the thirteenth level!" Metabee was just about ready to choke Ikky. Samantha would always find Ikky and Metabee's arguments quite amusing.

"Hey, I told you not to bring that!" Ikky makes an attempt to grab the mini- game that was in Metabee's hand parts.

"C'mon you two!" Erika says annoyed. "You both haven't growed up a single a bit!"

"Ok, ok. But I get to dance with Karin first!" Ikky announced as he got out the limo after Karin who came out after Henry and Crystaline who came out after Rintaro. Spyke and Samantha were the only ones left.

"No your not! You keep your dirty paws off Karin!" Koji growled.

"...even after all these years." Samantha said after she got out. "You'd think at least one of 'em would have gotten over Karin."

"Exactly!" Erika said now more annoyed than ever.

"Boss...I mean Samantha?" Spyke said, he was sitting at the edge of the seat in the limo. "...I was hoping that maybe when they start the music and stuff...maybe you could dance with me?"

"...sure." Samantha saw the hopeful look in Spyke's eyes turn into the most happy and gleeful eyes she had ever seen.

"Really?" Spyke immediately gets up hitting his head on the roof of the limo. "Ouch...um, well, then lets go! What're we waiting for?" Spyke excitedly grabs Samantha's hand and begins dragging her to the school.

"Mommy and Spyke, sittin' in a twee! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Alexandra said in a giggle.

"Oh, Alexandra." Samantha says in a blush.

"Samantha?" Peppercat said finally not stuttering to say her name. "Want me to take care of Alex?" Peppercat offered as she held her hand part's out.

"Ok," Samantha gives Alexandra to Peppercat. "just don't lose her like last time."

"Don't worry!" Peppercat reassured. "Nothing's going to happen now that I got a tune up!"

"Good!" Samantha said when she entered, she was surprised by who she saw when he strolled past her.
