Sorry for the very, very, very late update, been a bit busy with a lot of stress and writers block! I really wish I had "Ikuto" ha-ha! I bet most of us do! Special thanks to my reviewers: Bibliotaku748, Suigintou, Crimson-Midnight-Moon, alchemistlover14, and RomanticaKH1! Thanks for sticking this long with me! :) Well now that Tadagay is finally died *celebrates with confetti* now it's time for Jack to get what's coming for him *sharpens knife while grinning madly.* On to this chapter!

Ikuto finally made it to where the map said for him to go. He stood in front of big golden gates. They slowly opened for him. He walked in with precautions. He had to walk a long way before he finally reached the doors that opened to the mansion. Those too opened by themselves. He stepped in slowly. The doors closed behind him. When he turned around to face the front he saw that there were people there. And not just any people. But students from Amu's high school!

He walked slowly past them until he bumped into a small person. She turned around and Ikuto saw that it was Rima.

"Rima, where is Amu? Do you know where she is? Is she okay? Why are you guys here?"

"Oh silly Ikuto, we're here for the wedding! Isn't it exciting?" She said as she started dancing.

"Wait, who is getting married?"

"Well Jack and Amu of course!" She said as she left him there standing to dance around the room. He's going to force her to marry her? I won't let that happen! Amu belongs to me and only me! I need to find him quick and end his life! Ikuto turned to walk past by the people but was blocked. Everyone that was there just chatting were now all lined up beside each other and behind each other.

"Ikuto." Yoru said inside of Ikuto. Ikuto was about to reply back saying that it was going to be okay until he heard someone clapping. He looked on top of the stairs. Ikuto clenched his hands in a fist and started shaking with anger.

"Look at what the cat dragged in." Jack said as he was sitting on a chair on top of the stairs.

"Jack!" Ikuto shouted.

"Shhh, you don't want to wake up my lovely fiancée from her sleep now do you?" Jack said as he placed a finger to his lips.

"If you touched her I swear I'll…"

"Save it Ikuto! I have not touched her…yet." He said with a big grin on his face. "That will come after you are dead. When she awakens she will have no feelings for you, or any memories of ever loving you. All the love that she had for you will be channeled to me." Jack laughed.

"You bitch!" Ikuto yelled as he started running towards him. But everyone there took out a sword out that was hiding under their coats.

"Ikuto!" Yoru yelped!

"Damn it! Why can't you fight me yourself! Why are you cowardly using others to do your dirty work?"

"Well, I wouldn't want to get blood on myself right before my very special wedding day now do I?" he turned to the right where a big grandfather clock stood. "Well it should almost start soon. My beautiful fiancée should be waking up soon. I better go and help her into her wedding dress." he said with an evil smirk on his face.

"Don't you dare touch her with your filthy hands! Do you hear me? I will kill you in a slower death if she has a scratch on her!" Jack just laughed and waved goodbye as he turned and walked away, still laughing and with an evil grin. "Jack! Do you hear me? I will kill you, you ass-hole! You murdering bitch!" Ikuto rushed after him but someone swung a sword at him. It nearly missed him. He hissed at the cut on his cheek. Damn, he thought

"Ikuto, look over there." Ikuto looked and he saw a statue.

"Yoru looking at a statue isn't going to help me out here." Someone else swung a sword at him. This time Ikuto was able to dodge it.

"Well maybe if you looked better you would see why!" Ikuto looked back at the statue. He didn't see anything until he took a step forward. A sword!

"Thanks Yoru!" Yoru mumbled something to himself as Ikuto jumped high, avoiding the people that were victims of Jack's powers. He made it to the statue and pulled out the sword and then looked back at them.

"We have to knock them all out without killing them."

"That's going to be hard."

"I know but we have to. It's not like they chose to do this. I mean I know Rima hates me because I love Amu and she wants her all to herself." A couple of students charged at him. They weren't that strong so he was able to knock them down easily. A couple more came at him swinging their swords.

"Maybe you can snap them out of it!"

"What do you mean?" Ikuto said as he avoided another sword that would have stabbed him in the shoulder.

"I mean that maybe if you try you can wake them out of the spell. You can probably free the rest of the guardians and they can help you defeat Jack!"

"You're right!" Ikuto had already knocked out most of the students. He looked around for the other guardians. He sensed someone behind him. He turned around quickly to move out of the way but he wasn't fast enough. The sword had cut him on his left shoulder.

"Rima!" Ikuto looked back at the still little girl. Her eyes, as he ways now able to look closer, were red. He looked around and he saw that everyone's eyes were red as well. He jumped and landed on the stairs. Rima slowly turned around and faced him. Her face showed no emotion. "Rima, please listen to me! You have to snap out of this! Jack is controlling you! He is controlling everyone!" Rima didn't seem to hear him. Instead she just jumped to his side and swung the sword again.

"I am order to kill anyone that stands in Jack's and Amu's wedding day. You are interfering and now you must die." She lunched again and was able to make another cut on Ikuto's leg. Ikuto lunched at her with his sword blocking her sword trust with his sword. Ikuto swung left and right quickly and was able to knock the sword out from her grasp. He pinned her down on the ground.

"Get off me, you neko-cosplayer!" Ikuto froze. Only Amu called him that.

"Ikuto she might be almost free of the spell Jack has on her!"

"Rima, wake up already! Amu needs you!" Rima kept wiggling from under him. He looked up and noticed that the other guardians we're coming. "Rima wake up! Amu-Chan needs you!" Rima stopped wiggling and looked at Ikuto. Ikuto saw the red from her eyes disappear. She looked at him and blinked a couple of times.

"Ikuto?" she asked.

"Thanks for coming back to us Rima!"

"Wha-what happened?"

"Jack turned everyone into his slaves and his forcing Amu to marry him! He killed Dia already!"

"What? I always knew that something was wrong about him!"

"We need to free everyone from his magic. I'll explain the rest later."

"All right, let's go. We'll avoid the other guardians and knock out the other students that way we can worry about them later."

"Alright, let's go." Ikuto and Rima fought against the weaker students and avoided the guardians. The weaker students were much easier to take care of.

Only Yaya and Nagihiko were the only ones left standing. Both Rima and Ikuto stood catching their breaths. Rima got a few cuts on her arms and cheeks.

"I'll take care of Nagihiko. You get Yaya."

"But…"

"No 'buts' Ikuto, I can take care of him!"

"Fine…just be careful."

"Thanks." She then lunched toward Nagihiko in a sword fight. Ikuto turned to Yaya. She looked like she was ready to kill him.

"Maybe if we baby talk to her or something she'll come through!" Yoru suggested.

"I'll try." Yaya came after him swinging her sword. Ikuto stood still. When she got close enough he pointed behind.

"Yaya! Look! A ghost!" Yaya yelped and started crying.

"No! Yaya, is scared of ghost! Waaahhh! Get them away!" Ikuto walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Ahhh!" Yaya screamed as she looked up at Ikuto. Ikuto saw that her eyes were back to normal.

"Ikuto?"

"It's okay now Yaya. I need your help in getting everyone out of here. Can you do that?"

"Yes sir!" Yaya yelled. Ikuto smiled.

"I'm gonna go and help Rima now okay." Ikuto said as he turned around. That when he saw it happen. Rima and Nagihiko were fighting and Rima was yelling at him trying to make him snap out of the trance he was in. That was when Nagihiko swung his sword one way but quickly swung to the other side.

Rima wasn't fast enough. Nagihiko stabbed Rima on her right shoulder. Her eyes opened wide. Blood escaped from the wound and landed on Nagihiko. That's when finally Nagihiko woke up and his eyes returned to normal.

"Rima!" Yaya cried out, she took a step forward but Ikuto stopped her. We'll take care of her. You go help everyone out of here."

"But…"

"No buts' now go!" She nodded her head with tears in her eyes and started gathering the students with her rubber ducks. Ikuto ran to Rima and Nagihiko.

"Rima!" Nagihiko cried out as he brought Rima to his chest.

"Don't do that. It might injury her more!" Ikuto yelled. Nagihiko nodded his head and laid her down again. Ikuto ripped a piece of Rima's dress and placed it on the wound. "Hold down on it. It'll help slow down the bleeding." Nagihiko pressed down on the wound. Rima whimpered in pain.

"I'm so sorry Rima. I'm sorry." He said as leaned down and kissed her forehead.

"You are such an idiot. I'm," she took a deep painful breath, "I'm not going to die from this wound." She looked towards Ikuto. "You need to go now. Amu needs you more than us. And you need to finish Jack." Ikuto nodded his head and stood up and walked towards the stairs.

"And Ikuto," Ikuto turned around a glanced down at Rima. "If anything happens to Amu, you'll be the first to meet my fist." She said with a grin. Ikuto gave her a small smile.

"I promise I get her safe to you. To us." He said before he jumped up the staircases and through the door that Jack went through.

So there! Finally that is the end of this chapter! I finally got it finished! . Again I am sooo sorry for it being really, really late. I'll try and not be so late on it again. :( But please review! :D
