Inuyasha: Yeah woman! Give me the clue!

KawaiiDragon82: *sigh* What ever happened to chivalry?

Inuyasha: Chival what?

Yami: It's when…*cough* men were courteous to women for no apparent reason.

Inuyasha: GAHHH!!!!! THAT'S SCARY!!!!

KawaiiDragon82: Well??? What ever happened to it?

Yami: He grew old and died from cancer.

KawaiiDragon82: *slaps forhead* Why do I even bother???

"I want to marry him," Shizuka thought pleasantly. "I want to be with the man of my dreams for the rest of my life," Shizuka smiled and the thought of it. "I love you, Prince Seto Kaiba," Shizuka murmured aloud.

"What did you say, Shizuka?" Sanmi asked hearing a mumble.

"Oh uh…I said nothing…nothing at all," Shizuka bluffed. Kikyo could tell something was up.

"Oh really? Well…you better go do your chores or---" Kikyo started. Ding dong! Kikyo sighed. "Go get the door, would you?" she hissed at Shizuka. Shizuka nodded afraid what would happen to her if she didn't.

"Hello and---Shizuka!" a voice cried. Shizuka looked up and blushed embarrassed at her rags.

"Hey Anzu…not so loud," Shizuka whispered afraid that her stepmother and stepsisters would here. Anzu nodded. "So what did you come here for?" Shizuka asked.

"The prince has missed his darling so much," Anzu grinned with her eyelashes fluttering. "He's ordered me and Tristan to go find his sweetheart," Anzu smiled. Shizuka blushed.

"Well…could this wait? As you can see…I'm not in the best attire. Plus, my---" Shizuka started just about to start talking about her stepmother and stepsisters but an ugly voice rang out.

"SHIZUKA!!!!!!" Kikyo called. Shizuka and Anzu both covered there ears. If they hadn't, their eardrums would have probably broke. "Who is it at the door?" Kikyo called out more calmer this time.

"It's a guest…from Prince Kaiba's castle," Shizuka said. A shriek was heard, and in an instance, Kikyo, Sanmi, and Nikore were all out to greet Anzu.

"Hello…I'm so sorry you had to have a disgusted looking pheasant greet you," Kikyo apologized. Anzu cocked an eyebrow up.

"Is she talking about herself?" Anzu mouthed at Shizuka. Shizuka giggled quietly. She gave Shizuka another look that asking what was going on.

"I'll explain later," Shizuka mouthed out to her. Anzu nodded.

"It's no problem…really…" Anzu said.

"Well now…what can we do for you? Would you like to come in?" Kikyo rushed all these questions out. Anzu stared in disbelief. She finally recovered from the shock.

"Uh...sure…" Anzu said. Kikyo and the two dancing stepsisters led her to a room.

"SHIZUKA!!! Go get our guest a glass of lemonade," Kikyo ordered. Shizuka bowed and rushed into the kitchen.

"I'm here on official business…the prince's request," Anzu said. Sanmi and Nikore giggled hoping whatever it was that they would get picked. Anzu eyed them curiously. She cleared her throat and continued. "The prince has sent me and his other advisor, Tristan, on a search for his true love---" she started once again only to be interrupted. "Ahem…" Anzu said glaring at Sanmi and Nikore who started shrieking again.

"Girls, calm down, there will be plenty of celebrating," Kikyo smiled.

"Well…anyways, he has found her…and she lives in this household," Anzu smiled. Sanmi and Nikore once again started freaking out.

"Sanmi, I know it's me!" Nikore screamed at the top of her lungs.

"No way sis! I'm the one with the hair!" Sanmi yelled back. Kikyo, on the other hand, wasn't so stupid. She glanced at Shizuka and wondered why Shizuka wasn't affected by any of this.

"Well if you don't mind, I need to have a private conversation with Shizuka," Kikyo started. "Come," she ordered as she walked towards the stairs. Shizuka shrugged and headed off with Kikyo. "You first dearest," she smiled wickedly. Poor Shizuka wasn't aware of this. As soon as she entered her room, Kikyo locked the door and snickered to herself. Shizuka heard a slam and turned around. A gasp escaped her mouth.

"No please! Stepmother! Please, let me out!" she cried banging on the door. She fell on her knees, sinking to the floor. "No…" she mumbled.

Kikyo headed back downstairs. Anzu turned around anxiously to see Shizuka only to not see her. "Wh-where's Shizuka?" Anzu asked.

"Oh? You know her?" Kikyo smirked trying to get an answer from Anzu. Anzu gulped.

"I…I…The prince has a list of every girl in the city, I checked the list before heading here…so there are three girls in this household, isn't there?" Anzu asked.

"She said she wanted to stay in her room for a while…she'll be right down…" Kikyo frowned. Anzu sighed and slumped in her seat. She had a feeling that something bad has happened.
