Story:
"Whoa! I didn't know that it was so late already!" Resha exclaimed as the group of students walked out of the school.
"It's so dark already," Kio said as she pulled her jacket tighter over her shoulders.
"It's getting very cold too… What time is it now?"
"It's six-thirty…" Yugi said as he zipped up his jacket.
"What? Why is it so dark then?" Shiho said as she shivered.
"Duh, rain… Storm clouds…" Yuki said as he knocked Shiho's head.
"Let's head home…" Rey said.
"Let's go home in pairs… I'm scared… It's so dark already…" Resha suggested as she looked towards the deserted road.
"Let's all go home together, bringing each other home starting from the nearest house, Honaka's." Hiku said.
"Good idea." Vincent said as he appeared through the double doors leading outside.
"But what about you Hiku? Your house is the furthest…" Kenji stated as he appeared behind Vincent.
"Hiku can defend herself… Didn't you see how she kicked that Krad guy?" Rio said as she cuddled into Yoshin's arms.
"Get a room…" Honaka said as she appeared from behind Kenji.
"Can we go? I'm freezing here…" Shiho said as she hugged herself trying to keep warm.
"You didn't bring your jacket?" Kio asked.
"I did… It's just that it's invisible and paper-thin…" Shiho said sarcastically as she shivered even more.
"Oh, but we are all cold," Resha said.
"Sorry…"
Without one word, the platinum haired Yzak walked up to her and gave her his jacket.
"Yzak, aren't you cold?" Shiho said as she shivered even more.
"You need it more than me…" Yzak said as he placed the jacket over her shoulders.
"Thanks…" Shiho said as she wrapped the jacket tighter around her body.
"Okay, let's go…" Hiku said as she tried to suppress her laughter.
The group walked along the road talking and laughing. After half an hour, Yuki, Yugi, Yoshin, Honaka, Resha, Kenji and Vincent had already gone home so only Kio, Rio, Hiku, Yzak, Rey and Shiho were left. Those who were left walking, were pretty quiet cause the group clown was already home.
"Okay, we're here home… Thanks for walking home with us…" Rio said as she hugged Hiku and Shiho.
"Thanks guys…" Kio said as she hugged both Hiku and Shiho.
"Bye!" both said in unison.
"Bye!" Hiku said as she waved at them.
"Bye! See you two tomorrow!" Shiho said.
"Bye, see you tomorrow." Yzak said.
"Yeah, bye girls…" Rey replied.
Continuing on their way home, Shiho and Hiku started talking. Then, they reached a crossroad.
"Hey your house is that way right?" Shiho asked.
"Yeah… Why?" Hiku asked.
"Well, mine is the other way… So I guess I can make my way back on my own. No worries." Shiho said.
Then, a drizzle started to fall.
"That will be too dangerous…" Rey said.
"All three of your houses are that way… And I know how to defend myself… No worries! Okay, I'll be going now! Thanks Yzak for your jacket, I'll return it to you after I wash it! Bye!" Shiho said as she turned left and started to run towards her house.
"Bye…" Hiku said as she waved back at the disappearing shadow of Shiho's.
"I don't think that's such a good idea… Her going home alone…" Rey said as he watches Shiho disappear into the shadows.
"I'm going after her… To make sure she gets home alright…" Yzak said as he said his goodbye.
"Bye Yzak… Take care…" Hiku said as Yzak stated to run in to the darkness just like Shiho did.
Rey waved after him till he disappeared.
"He so likes her…" Hiku said with a laugh.
"Yeah, he doesn't know that he makes it so obvious… Both of them make a nice couple…" Rey said.
"Let's go…" Hiku said as she pulled him along.
"Okay, okay…" Rey said as he walked along side of Hiku.
Walking for another fifteen minutes, Hiku was alone already.
"Another ten minutes and I'll be home… Why must we live so far away from school?" Hiku wailed.
"Hey little lady, you alone?" came a voice from behind.
Hiku turned around and saw six guys standing there smirking at her.
"Oh god, wipe those smirks off your faces! It's so old already…" Hiku said as she remembered how Krad kept on smirking.
"Aww, angry little missy?" another one said.
"Yeah, if you don't shut up." Hiku said.
"Why you little bitch… You think you can take out all six of us?" the leader said.
"No, but I can try…" Hiku said as she dropped her bag and got ready to fight.
Then from behind, she felt someone approached her. Hiku turned wanting to punch the daylights out of the guys but then the guy caught her fist and then, came the thing Hiku hated most. A smirk.
"Damnit! Stop smirking!" Hiku shouted out as she raised her other hand.
"Then what?" came the guy in front of her.
"Why the hell do you keep appearing?" Hiku asked angrily as she looked in to those golden orbs of his.
"Me? Cause people think I'm the angel from heaven…" came the guy again.
"You? Dark's other self, an angel? Ha!" Hiku laughed as she looked at the white-winged 'angel' in front of her.
Krad Hikari…
"What's so funny? Everyone thinks angels come in white clothes and have a pair of white wings…" Krad said, as he looked at the laughing girl infront of him.
Hiku looked up and saw one of the six guys who was holding a glass bottle, running towards Krad from behind.
"Watch out!" Hiku cried out as the guy raised the bottle.
Krad let go of Hiku's hand and turned and kicked the guy in the gut making him drop to the ground then the bottle dropped to the ground and broke ending glass everywhere. One of the glass shard cut Hiku on the leg. Jumping backwards to prevent me injuries, Hiku landed on to the ground with the sound of an ankle being twisted. Wincing in pain, Hiku placed the other foot down which stepped onto her shoelace which made her lose her balance thus making her fall flat on to her bum. This had made Krad laugh.
"Shut up!" Hiku said as she started to blush with embarrassment.
"You guys should run now or I won't let you go later…" Krad said as he turned his attention to the five guys.
The five guys gave a yelp then turned and ran for their lives. Krad kneed down and looked at the cut.
"It isn't very deep but the glass is still in there… This may hurt a bit." Krad said as he used his magic to remove the small piece of glass shard.
Hiku felt the pain transmit a message to the brain and wince as blood began to flow out.
"Damnit… Toshi-san and Kondo-san are going to kill me… I can already imagine it…" Hiku mumbled as she watch Krad take out a white handkerchief and tied it around the wound.
"Thanks…" Hiku said as she tried to stand.
But she ended falling down again. Krad placed his hand infront of Hiku's face indicating that he would help her if she wanted it that is. Sighing, Hiku took hold of the hand and pulled herself up.
"Hmm, you can't walk… What can I do to get you home?" Krad asked purposely trying to make Hiku irritated.
And it looks like he was getting his way very easily.
"Damnit! You can fly!" Hiku cried out in irritation.
"Oh yeah how could I forget?" Krad laughed.
Pulling her bag over her shoulders, Hiku braced herself for a bumpy ride, as she knew Krad loved to irritate her. But, the ride to her house was very smooth. In five minutes, Hiku was in her balcony already.
"That was fast…" Hiku said as Krad began to pick the lock at the door.
"I may not be a thief like the Mousy family but I am just as good as them at picking locks" Krad stated as he pushed opened the door.
Hiku looked at the clock on her bedside table. It showed 7:56pm.
"God it's late…" Hiku thought.
"Go take a bathe, I'll wait here…" Krad said as he looked around the room.
"For- for what may I ask?" Hiku said.
"Just do as I say…" Krad replied.
Hiku, feeling tired stood up with the help of her computer chair and walked over to the closet and pulled out a pair of black sweat pants and a red tank-top grabbing her undergarments as soon as Krad looked at another direction and hiding them under her clothes she was going to wear. Going in to the toilet, Hiku brought the chair along so she could support herself and to block the door just in case. Whereas, for Krad, he was walking around the room looking at the photos Hiku had put on display in photo fames. There was one where Hiku was a ten-year-old girl sitting with her five-year-old sister, by the piano smiling happily. Another one was Hiku and her friends in her first sleepover. There was one photo, which showed her parents. Her mother was a fair-skinned lady with red-hair up to her waist and had hazel coloured eyes. Her husband, a thin man with tanned skin. He had baby-blue hair with blonde highlights.
"Why is there only one picture of them?" Krad asked himself.
Krad looked around the room and saw a whole cupboard full of computer games and video games. He went closer and saw a picture of a baby-blue hair boy pasted on the door of the cupboard. He was about sixteen years old when the picture was taken.
"That's my oldest brother, Hozumi Sayo…" came Hiku.
Krad turned around and looked at her. She was still holding on to the chair for support.
"Where is he?" Krad asked.
"He died when I turned fifteen. He was only nineteen…" Hiku said as she walked towards the cupboard.
"Died? How?" Krad asked.
"He was in an all boys school… He was in some kind of student committee. They were making some kind of party in the school's old hall. But in the mist of preparing the party, there was an accident. A guy called Kyo Tsukasa; he was painting the walls when his ladder gave way. He fell backwards and he fell on to another guy who fell on to my brother squashing him to death. Tsukasa was the only one who survived that accident… He was in coma for one whole month before waking up." Hiku said as she looked at her brother.
"…" Krad kept silent.
"This cupboard's games were all his… We couldn't bare to throw them away so I kept them." Hiku said as she turned to look at Krad.
"Okay… Come on sit on the bed… I'll help you with your leg." Krad said as he carried Hiku and placed her on to her bed…
