Author's Note:

ddwZ: I'm sorry I haven't been updating. I really have a lot of school work , so sorry!!

'Seven more days. No, cancel that six more days. I need to find my holy ring before then to return to my rightful place, heaven. And leave this dirty place inhabited by filthy, greed, and self centered humans. Where could I find it?' Thought Kari.... It's going to be a long week.

"Ohayo Ken-san!" greeted Kari.

"Ohayo Kari" replied Ken unenthusiastically.

Ken had just reached home after a tiring day in school. Of course without Ouka glomping on him when he reached, nearly cutting off his supply of oxygen.

"Ne, Ken-chan aren't you going to take me to the circus? They just came to town this morning. I want to go! I want to go!" Begged Ouka as she jumped onto the already exhausted Ken. Causing him to crumble onto the floor ungracefully.

"Hai. You won; I'll take you to the circus. Now get off me before I die." With that Ouka jumped off Ken in joy.

Kari watched this with amusement. 'This reminds me of TK and me when we were still young. We had lots of fun in those days. But good things can't always stay. And now I have to find my Holy Ring before they banish me,' thought Kari a grim smile plastered on her face.

"Ken managed to stagger back and sat on the dining table observing Kari's mood changes from an amused face to a sad one, which doesn't match her. After living with her for a few days, he had grown to like the beautiful girl more than a friend. Is not only her physical appearances that attracted him to her, but also her kind soul that have moved his usually cold heart? Come to think of it, he had never communicated with any female without getting fed up with them. Could this be.love?

"Hey Kari would you like to join us?" asked Ken

"Ano. I'm not sure I can go. I have other plans. I'm really sorry. I really want to go with you guys I knew it would be fun." Replied Kari a sad smiled on her face.

"Oh. Okay then, well I guess I should get going with Ouka then," Ken said with a tinge of sadness in his voice.

And so Ken and Ouka went to the circus leaving Kari all alone in the house.

'Hm, I should get going now, before my time runs out.' With these thoughts, a bright pink light glows around Kari enveloping her. And in place of those lights, wings sprout from her back.

"And the hunt is on" Kari spread her wings apart and flew out of the window and into the cerulean sky.

She had been flying for a few hours. Kari had flown to China where the Great Wall stood tall and proud, across the Great Barrier Reef of the Outback, and covered most of the continents in Asia. But without any luck, she saw no trace of her holy ring.

'What should I do? Where can it be? I'm quite sure it dropped around here somewhere.' Kari thought silently as she flicked her soft hair out of her view. 'This place sure is cold' she told herself as she flew around Mount Fuji before going back to Ken's apartment.

Kari landed in one of the alley where no one would notice her before crossing the streets onto the main street. From there she just have to walk three blocks down and there, stood her "home" for now.

It was already late, around 9 pm when she reached Ken's warm apartment. All the while she had been talking to herself. 'Now I'll be safe and warm in the house. Where Ken and I would talked about his life and families. Hmm, I never knew human beings could be as kind as him. Wait, what am I talking. Could this be what the High Ones talked about, what they have been talking all the time, love?'

With a confused mind, she entered her "home" and went to the kitchen to get a glass of warm chocolate to warm her from her cold journey. The lights were on and Ken was slumped on one of the chairs of the dining table, staring at the clock.

Kari decided to wake Ken from his daydreaming by clearing her throat. Ken nearly fell off his chair and quickly regained his footings and stood up, finnaly noticing Kari's presence.

"Where were you? It's late." Inquired Ken in a somewhat concerned voice.

"Ah, I went to visit some of my freinds," lied Kari

"I see" Said Ken with a tinge of sadness in his tone.

He knew she was lying, her facial expression told him everything. But why would she want to hide some things from him. Does she trust him?

"Well I'm really sleepy, oyasumi" said Kari, breaking Ken's train of thoughts.

"Aa, oyasumi" replied Ken
