GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN!!!!!I am so sorry this took so long; I've had a horrible
writer's block as well as not a lot of time to write and get it gone! As I
said in the review part I totally overloaded myself with clubs at school.
(Thinking they'd look good on my college résumé) So here it is, it might
not be long, but it's something to continue with!

"Umi-chan, Fuu-chan" Hikaru said, dangling her legs over the porch they were sitting on, poking her head through the railing. "how do you think we got here?"
"well Hikaru-san." Fuu started "I think it's most likely the way we got to Cephero."
"wait Fuu, the was we got to Cephero is because of the pillars will, unless this world has a pillar too, then it probably wouldn't be the same way." Umi said, propping her head on her hands which rested on her knees.
"yes, Umi-san but what other ways would there be?" Fuu asked.
"I don't know, but there must be others we don't know about, just like we didn't know about this world." Umi said.
"like what Umi-chan?" Hikaru asked.
"I don't know, maybe.ah I don't know that's more of something to ask Fuu Hikaru." Umi said, a little annoyed at herself for not having a good reply.
."well Hikaru-san." Fuu started, fiddling with her glasses as she thought. "maybe there are little rips all over the universe that lead to other universes."
"I.." Umi started, but was interrupted by a very loud yelling.
"Rath!" the voice yelled, it seemed feminine. "you thought that was funny didn't you!"
They soon saw Rath come running across the garden, ducking behind a large boulder. As he had just gotten hidden a girl with pointed hears and purplish hair came stomping into the garden, rage in her eyes.
"Rath, where are you?!" she yelled, looking around.
Umi sniggered, and pointed behind the rock where he was hiding, and franticly motioning for her not to tell the girl he was there.
"wind!" the girl yelled and a gust of wind pelted Rath with small stones. She smiled, her quest finished, as Rath dusted himself off, and stomped up to the porch. "well, it was funny, you falling down stairs happens to look ridiculous." He said and walked away.
Hikaru and Fuu watched after him confusedly, as Umi laughed silently.
"thank you." The girl said, walking over to Umi who was currently trying not to hurt herself by holding back the laughter. "I'm Cesia, and I see you've met Rath the was you're laughing."
"yes." Umi said calming herself. "I'm Umi, this is Fuu, and this is Hikaru." She introduced them as she spoke. "and thank you for that, he seems to be getting on my nerves for some reason." She told her.
"Rath's good at that." Cesia told her.
"he doesn't seem that bad to me." Hikaru interjected . "well, he is." Cesia said, looking at her. "you haven't had to live with him, constantly wanting to find yokai to fight."
"yokai?" Fuu asked.
"yes. He's a bit obsessive over killing them for some reason." Cesia answered.
"Really?" Umi questioned, a bit interested.
"yes he's.." Cesia was cut off by approaching footsteps.
"girls?" a deep voice said, it belonged to a blonde man with glasses.
They looked at him, and saw that three other boys were following him.
"I am Kai-stern, I would like to show you to the room you will be staying in while you are with us, I am sorry that it couldn't be the lord himself but we currently don't know where he is."
"Thank you Kai-Stern-sama." Fuu said, guessing he deserved the royal title . "please, just call me Kai-stern." He told them as the other two stood.
"alright, but may I first ask where we are, Kai-stern." Umi asked as they walked into the palace and through many winding halls.
"you are in Draqueen, at Lord Lykouleon's palace." Kai-stern said as they rounded a corner. "here are the rooms you will be staying in, I'm sure the boys will be happy to get you situated, I have some other business to attend to at the moment, please excuse me."
With that he turned and left. Umi made a face at the answer she had received.
"well that doesn't help me much." She huffed. "I don't know where Draqueen is."
As she was putting Hikaru and Fuu were being shown their rooms by Thatz and Rune, that left Umi with Rath. They stood and scowled at one another for a few minutes, until Umi asked, with more then a little bit of snip in her voice.
"well are you going to show me my room?"
Rath sighed inwardly, he could tell this girl was as demanding as Cesia.
"sure." He said, and motioned towards a door, he then moved to open it when Umi scowled at him for a second time. "this is your room, make yourself at home."
"thank you." Umi said curtly, Rath took this as a cue to leave and hurriedly retreated from the doorway.
"sheesh, she's not a happy person." He said when he was sure he was out of earshot.
"Umi-chan, Fuu-chan" Hikaru said, dangling her legs over the porch they were sitting on, poking her head through the railing. "how do you think we got here?"
"well Hikaru-san." Fuu started "I think it's most likely the way we got to Cephero."
