Blackimi: HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!

Amu: Agh! The retard is back! (cowers behind Ikuto)

Blackimi: WOOHOO!

Ikuto: What the fuck is wrong with you?

Blackimi: I JUST HAD A WHOLE FUCKING GLASS OF AUSTIN POWERS (it's an alcoholic cocktail) AND I GOT DRUNK!

Ikuto: Oh my god! I've found myself a drinking buddy! Tell me all about your first (drunk) time!

Blackimi: It was so weird! After i drank it, my head began to hurt! Then, since we (my mom, sister and i) were at a birthday party, we began to get food from the buffet. I was feeling kinda ok. But when i sat down to eat, everything began to warp! It's the feeling you get after the room stops spinning. You're still tipsy but the room is still... IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN! EVERYTHING WAS WOOZY!

Amu: You sicko... What happened then?

Blackimi: Well, i was eating shrimp and i was like swaying in my seat. I was so disoriented that i ate a shrimp without removing the shell. I mean, the head was gone. So was the tail and those puny insect legs but i didn't peel off the shell... No wonder it was crunchy...

Ikuto: Oh wow...

Blackimi: Anyways, after that, everyone was talking. I got up and staggered to my mom who was seated at another table. Then, i whispered to her and i quote "Mom, i think i'm slightly intoxicated..." She said, "What?" and i said, "Mom! I think I'm drunk!"

(Ikuto and Amu burst out laughing)

Blackimi: Then she gave me that 'Mom' look. Like where she bugs her eyes out and her jaw clenches and she gives you the death glare... "You see? That's what you get for drinking alcohol! You're still under aged!" then she made me sit down and i wan't allowed to even get out of my seat...

Ikuto: THIS DRUNK BASTARD WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL OF THOSE WHO FAVORITED, REVIEWED AND ALERTED HER AND HER STORY! (hands out Austin Powers cocktails)

Amu: What the hell? Are you trying to get everyone drunk?

Blackimi: I DO NOT OWN SHUGO CHARA CUZ IF I DID, I WOULD GET EVERYONE IN THE SERIES DRUNK AND THEY WOULD ALL HAVE KILLER HANGOVERS TOMORROW! JUST LIKE THE MOVIE HANGOVER WHICH I DO NOT OWN EITHER!

Ikuto: Here Amu, try it! (makes her chug an entire glass)

Blackimi: BOTTOMS UP! OH, BY THE WAY, I AM NOT MAKING UP THE STORY OF WHEN I GOT DRUNK! IT'S TRUE!

Amu: (drunk) ZIGZACTLY!

Blackimi: AMU! (embraces)


Madness In Wonderland…

The Dusk and the Dawn…

Black_kimono_otaku


-*Ikuto's P.O.V.*-

I stood there with my mouth gaping.

"Am I really back…?" I whispered.

Kukai suddenly disappeared, only to materialize in front of me. He punched me playfully on my arm, "Is this real enough for you?" he laughed.

My arm stung slightly but I knew that it was all real. I was back in Seiyo. I was… home

I grabbed Kukai by his shoulders, "Where's Amu?"

Rima rolled her eyes, "Typical. Lovesick loony…"

"C-Calm d-down-n, Ik-Ikuto!" Kukai's teeth rattled.

"Where is Amu?" I asked again, easing my roughness.

"Why don't you have some tea first?" Tadase offered as he tried to distract me.

"Oh, leave him, Tadase. Even I think he should see my sister-in-law. He's been gone for a week!" Utau rolled her eyes.

My eyes widened, "I was gone for… a week?"

Rima nodded, "Yes. And it was during that week that I've never seen Amu so depressed before…"

I could feel a lump in my throat form. "Please tell me where Amu is. I need to see her."

Kukai pointed to a far corner of the garden. There was a small grove of trees. "She's there. That's where she's been going ever since we arrived here."

But I was already running to it before he could even finish.

I burst through the low hanging branches and right into the grove, "Amu!"


-*Amu's P.O.V.*-

I was back at my usual thinking spot.

It was right in the middle of a circular grove of trees, hidden by low hanging branched and vines.

I was just standing in the middle of it all, with my head raised up to the sky, when I heard the sound of thudding feet approaching…

Suddenly, a familiar voice cried out my name, "Amu!"

My eyes snapped open but I refused to turn.

Was it…? Could it be him…?

"Amu…" his voice spoke softly.

I dared to turn my head, my heart hammering against my chest, threatening to break my ribs.

My eyes welled up with tears as soon as I saw the familiar midnight blue hair and cobalt blue eyes. He was as handsome as ever…

"Ikuto…" I whispered…

Without saying a word, Ikuto ran to me, capturing me in a bear hug. I pulled away slightly and pressed my lips to his own…

Ikuto kissed me hungrily, as if he had been starving and I was his favorite meal. I wrapped my arms around his neck and tangled my fingers in his hair. I hooked my leg around his waist. Ikuto lifted my skirt slightly, revealing my thigh. He began to rub my skin selfishly as I pulled away for a breath.

Ikuto, with his other hand, grabbed some of my hair and gently tugged my head down so it revealed my neck. I moaned out with pleasure as Ikuto began to suck on my skin greedily. I worked my hands down and began to unbutton his shirt, showing of his perfectly toned six-pack. I ran my fingers along the planes of his warm chest and smiled when I heard him groan out.

We kissed again and Ikuto slid his tongue into my mouth. I moaned out again when I felt his tongue lick my own.

"I love you." He whispered when he pulled away.

"I love you too." I nuzzled my face against his.

"Don't you dare send me back. I belong here with you… forever…" Ikuto murmured in my ear as he embraced me.

Tears streamed down my face, "I'm sorry… I don't want to be away from you either…"

Ikuto chuckled.

I kissed him gently and he kissed back.

In the distance, I heard Utau yell, "Ikuto! I allowed you to see Amu but you've been in there a few minutes too long! Get your ass out here right now or I myself will drag you off by your freaky blue hair!"

A low growl erupted from Ikuto's chest and I giggled.

"Over-protective demon." He muttered under his breath. "Hm." I smiled as I planted a kiss on the crook of his neck.

Ikuto shivered with delight and licked the skin of my neck, making me moan.

"I'm warning you, Ikuto!" Utau screeched…


-*Normal P.O.V.*-

Ikuto had an arm around Amu's shoulder as the two exited the grove.

Rima smiled a little to see that Amu was emitting a lively aura, a huge change compared to the way she was for the past week…

"Good to see the two of you still dressed." Utau muttered.

Amu blushed darkly while Ikuto smirked. He leaned down and kissed Amu on the side of her head, whispering the words "I love you" discreetly in her ear.

The pinkette turned her head to him and smiled.

"Ah, Hinamori-sama, it's nice to see you in a wonderful mood!" a soft voice that sounded like wind chimes called out.

Standing between Tadase and Rima were two completely identical people. Twins…

The two of them had chocolate brown eyes and waist long purple hair. The girl had hers in a high pony tail.

The boy was wearing a white ski cap; a lavender long sleeved shirt under a white one and a blue vest. He had purple shorts and high cut sneakers. He also had blue leather gloves on and wore a set of headphones around his neck…

The girl had a knee-length white kimono with pink floral frills and lace edging around it. She had the same type of cloth wrapped around her stomach. She was also wearing white boots…

Fujisaki Nadeshiko laughed, her wind chime voice floating in the breeze like sakura petals. Amu smiled at her, "Yes, I've never been happier…!"

Fujisaki Nagihiko chuckled; the sound of it seemed lively and pulsing with energy, "Is it because of him?" Nagihiko nodded in Ikuto's direction.

The two love birds looked at each other with affection in their eyes. "Definitely..." Amu whispered before Ikuto leaned down to give her a brief; passionate kiss.

Utau's eye twitched angrily. Surprisingly, Tadase didn't seem completely affected… the blond haired boy was too mesmerized by Nadeshiko…

"Get a room, you two. Keep your shows of affection down until you're alone." Rima sighed.

Kukai and Nagihiko chuckled.

"So," Nagihiko turned to Rima, "it's been a while since we last saw each other, wasn't it?"

Rima choked on her tea and began to cough violently.

Amu abandoned her make out session to tend to her half-dying friend…

"Wh-What are you," Rima hacked, "t-talking about?"

"Don't you remember? I was walking in a park one day and suddenly, I hear furious screaming! I look around and see this blond girl shrieking her lungs out at a couple of cowering kids: "You mere uneducated mortals! You are a shame to comedy! It's not 'Balance!' alone! It's 'Bala-Balance!'" Then before I know it, the girl is striking a hilarious pose with a proud look on her face…!" Nagihiko smiled at a furiously blushing Rima…

Kukai snickered but shut up when the petite blond girl shot him a murderous look.

Amongst it all, Ikuto stood with a slightly confused expression on his face.

Tadase decided to take pity on him and began to explain.

"After the ambush, Rima told us about Fujisaki-san's hidden dojo. We decided to take refuge here for the mean time…"

Ikuto nodded as Tadase continued:

"Well, I bet you would have guessed by now that these twins aren't exactly normal… They are known as the Dusk and the Dawn…"

At the mere mention of their titles, Nagihiko and Nadeshiko's heads snapped up at the same time, their brown eyes flickering with that slight hint of madness…

"I am the Dawn, bringer of light, pace and tranquility…" Nadeshiko stated in a melodious voice.

"I'm the Dusk, the time when hidden energy pulses to life!" Nagihiko grinned.

"Would you like a demonstration?" the two of them asked at the exact same time, their voices amazingly blended in together, making them sound like one person…

Utau raised an eyebrow in interest and Amu looked excited, "Of course!"

Nadeshiko smiled as Nagihiko stepped away to the side. Suddenly, soft Japanese music began to fill the air. Nadeshiko started to dance slowly and gracefully, her body bending and moving so easily, like a petal floating in the wind.

Tadase stared at her in awe. The girls seemed mesmerized by the beauty of the dance…

But they all noticed that as she danced, the sun seemed to shine brighter than ever. Until it was nearly blinding…!

The light bended and twisted magically with Nadeshiko's every move, as if she was somehow controlling the light…!

The Japanese music began to fade away and Nadeshiko's dance slowed down until it came to a halt. The bright light dimmed and retreated until it was normal again.

"That was so cool, sis!" Nagihiko grinned, "Let's trade!" he breezed past his sister, their hands colliding in mid air in a high-five.

Now, Nagihiko stood at center stage. Hip hop music blasted through the calm air, yet it somehow seemed to go with it perfectly…

Nagihiko began to break dance. It wasn't like one of those amateur dances. His moves were fluid like: smooth and ever changing. It didn't matter what the move before it was, they all seemed to fit together like a jig saw puzzle…

Like his sister's, Nagihiko's dance seemed to have a peculiar affect with the light. It began to dim until it was nearly dark. But instead of sunlight, energy seemed to take form as wisps of light. They pulsed with life and seemed to awaken something within the small group. Nagihiko controlled it easily, shifting it from vibrant and alive to gentle and silent. But the energy was still there, flowing around as if it was alive…

The music slowed down but suddenly ended with a bang, along with it, Nagihiko did a couple of cool moves. The energy gave one last vibrant beat before fading away. Sunlight poured in again, filling the garden with light once more…

Rima seemed stunned. Nadeshiko clapped softly for her brother and Kukai cheered, "That was so awesome!"

Nagihiko gave him a thumb's up sign, a glint of triumph in his eyes.

"Interesting, you can control light," Utau looked at Nadeshiko "while you control energy." She turned to Nagihiko.

The twins smiled. Nadeshiko looked at the sky thoughtfully, "Well, I do believe that it's time for a rest. It's getting quite late and I think the new addition to the group needs rest."

"My name's Tsukiyomi Ikuto." Ikuto introduced himself.

"Pleased to meet cha'!" Nagihiko smiled at him.

Amu looked at the sky and frowned. It was still light. How could it be late?

"Allow me to finish my dance." Nagihiko said. His music came on again and his dance started once more. The sky dimmed and everyone headed inside as the Dusk set out to do his job…


Coming soon on Madness In Wonderland...

"You idiot!" I giggled as I wiped away tears from my eyes. He chuckled and lay down on his side next to me.

With a sigh, he lay his head down on my chest, closing his eyes as he wrapped his arms around me.

I reached out and ran my hand through his silky midnight blue hair, tangling the strands between my fingers.

Ikuto began to trace circles on my skin. I giggled because it tickled a little…

"Amu, what happened during the fight in the observatory? You know, after I left?" Ikuto mumbled against my skin.
