"Megumi, what is all this?" A very horrified prince asks his sister.

"J-J-J-Jun, it's not what is looks like" Megumi struggles to up.

"Y-yeah, this is... all of this is for a-a play, yeah" Sakura says as she helps up her friend, "You see, we have this cool stage thimg we're doing and it's called finding human objects an-"

"Sakura, you're in this to?"

She backed away.

"Megumi, explain this, haven't I told you a million times already not to collect these... these dangerous weapons!"

"They're not dangerous! If you'd just listen to me for once then you'd be able to realize that-"

"I've heard enough and I'm telling father, you've doe this too many times"

"Jun no! Just look at this" Megumi picked up a random object from the floor and showed him the same fork she'd found that same day, "tell me, does this look dangerous?"

His eyes were filled with fear as if the object could actually harm him. "Megumi get away from that thing!" Jun pushed Megumi to the ground making her let go of the item. "What's wrong with you, you're out of control!"

"Me? I'm out of control?"

"With you just tackling me to the floor like that do you really think we can determine who's out of control here?"

"What do you-" Before he could reply, he looked at the clock behind her and realized that they were late for dinner.

"You know what, we don't have time for this" he turned around and headed for the door, " we're gonna be late, mom and dad will be looking for us"

"Wait! Jun!"

He stopped.

"You're not gonna tell are you, please don't!"

"Megumi, I'm trying to keep you safe-"

"And I'm trying to show you that I don't need protection"

Megumi pleaded as the protective Prince thought long and hard about his situation.

"If you promise to clean all of this up and stop collecting these... things by next week, then I won't tell"

Megumi smiled and hugged her brother. Although, she didn't keep her promise, instead, she crossed her fingers behind her back. "Thank you, Jun, I promise". As they walked out of the messy room, Sakura ran up to her friend with curious yet almost glad eyes.

"Did you really just promise to stop collecting human things?" She whispered.

"Of course not"

"Oh, for second there I actually thought you weren't out of your mind for the first time"


Megumi and her family sat at the dining table as they ate in awkward silence. It's only been a while now since Jun found out about his sister's big secret and he was already having trouble keeping it.

"So, anything new happen today?" thier stepmother asked. It had only been three months since Jun and Megumi's father, King Ryuu, had gone into a relationship with thier new stepmother, Finn. They didn't like her though. Probably because she completely took him away from them. Ever since she'd come along, they haven't gotten a chance to spend time with thier dear old dad.

Silence filled the room.

"Umm, okay, so anyone hear about the loud noise that was heard under the palace today? All the guards are talking about it". The twins jerked at hearing this. Jun nearly choked on his food. "What's wrong Jun, are you okay?"

They shot a suspicous smile at thier stepmother.

"Alright then, I heard some guards talking about it near the garden and they said it sounded like someone was under there". Although Megumi was calm but cautious, Jun was struggling not to spit out his food.

"Jun, sweetie, are you sure you're alright?"

"Look, can we just quit this topic" Megumi looked down to her plate.

"What's wrong Megumi?" The king asked his daughter.

"Yeah Megumi, what's up?" her brother teased her, urging her to tell them.

"Umm, dad, may I be excused for a second, I'd like to talk to my brother for a second", Megumi pulled him away from the table.


"Jun, what do you think you're doing!"

"Me? I can't take it anymore! You've gotta tell dad"

"But... you promised"

"Megumi... I don't trust you"

"What? Jun..."

"Okay, you two are acting pretty weird" The two could hear a voice behind them. Of course, their stepmother always had to intrude.

"What are you talking about? We're not acting weird. What did you hear?"

"See what I mean?" Finn looked toward them with curious eyes. They turned away from her. "Listen guys, I know it's hard with me around". Jun and Megumi jerked up. "I know it's hard with all the things going on with your dad and I but-"

"What things are you referring to here?" Megumi shot her eyes at Finn. Her glare was curious, too curious.

"Okay, umm, so really, I just want us to get along alright. So, can we just forget about it and go back to the dining room to have some family time".

"Whatever, can you just let us talk for a second" Megumi replied turning away from her stepmother.

"Of course..."

"Jun, please, you know how much I need you to keep this secret. You promised me..."

"Megumi, it's hard okay, your secret is driving me crazy"

"Just try okay, you can't let this slip" Jun was feeling unsure about whether he should've kept her secret or not.

Megumi and Jun were back in the dining room and their parents looked like they had something to tell. During the entire meal it seemed as if the two were sending each other messages to each other. Of course, the twins recognized this but they couldn't comprehend why. At the end of dinner the family was about to leave the room when someone stopped them.

"Megumi, Jun, we have something we want to share with you" Ryuu and Finn held their hands together and faced them.

"Can't this wait till morning, we're tired" Jun grumbled.

"No, it can't wait till morning", the couple smiled at each other.

"Fine what is it?"

"Finn and I... we're getting married!"

Jun and Megumi were shocked. Finn? Dad? Married!?.

"Isn't this gonna be fun guys!" Finn hugged them, "we're gonna do all kinds of things together. And Megumi! Maybe you can help me get ready for the wedding and we can have some mother daughter bonding time!"

"No! You can't do this dad!" Megumi pushed her new mother out of her grasp.

"What?"

"You can't marry Finn, don't you care anything about mom?"

"I do, but..."

"I don't care anymore, just leave me alone!" Megumi swam out of the room. Of course, Jun followed her trying to calm her down. At this, Finn's face grew sad and sorry.

"Dont worry Finn, they're just a little overwhelmed as all"

"I don't want them to hate me, maybe this isn't such a good idea..."

"No, no, I'll talk to them, everything will be fine"
