Olya / cardcaptor girl's notes: Hi! Me again! Feeling all better and ready to go on with my story! I have to apologize for Azuma though. I didn't pay much attention to him in the show, so I'm sorry that he is OOC. I'll try better! Now, I have an answer for one of your reviews:

  Dear galabad, (thank you for reviewing all this time by the way), you wrote:

//The relationship between Ikhny and Mick is getting interesting. It seems that Ikhny gets annoyed with him sometimes, in much the same way Hiead used to get annoyed with her. Could it be that Ikhny is starting to see things from Hiead's point of view?\\

   Well I must say that I wouldn't-

   Hiead: "You're giving away the plot dammit!"

   Olya: "I am?"

   Hiead: "Yes you do, sweetie."

   Olya: "So? I can do whatever I want, 'cause it's my story!"

   Hiead: "Do you want me to do the *pushy-pushy-against-the-wall-thingy* and make you wish you were never born, my honeybunch?"

   Olya ('.): "And we're on with the story!!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   "Um…y-you're h-hurting m-me…"

   "I know."

    Ikhny yelped again, this time louder, enough for Hiead to hear, and for Mick to shudder in fright.

   "P-please…s-stop!" Tarria just smiled sweetly in return.

   "Why?" The smaller girl's eyes went wide, and before she had time to reply, the other teen squeezed her hand even tighter. Ikhny let out a sharp gasp and tried to pull her hand away, but obviously failed. Ikhny had nothing to do, except to struggle against the grip of an exceptionally strong girl.

   "That's enough. Stop it, both of you." Hiead sounded somewhat concerned, although it was very well covered by his great irritation.

   "B-but Ikhny doesn't do anything! It's only your par-"

   "Shut up." The ruby eyed boy shot a cold glare toward the little partner of Allecto. Then, Hiead turned to look at Tarria, who obviously was just begging to have a good time. "Hidgi, stop it." His partner, however, had other plans.

   "Don't tell me what to do, Gner…besides, who are you to object an abuse of your ex-partner? I thought you were into it…" Ikhny shuddered slightly, as she heard the two people talking.

   "Hidgi, I don't have time for this – now stop, let go of her before anyone sees you."

   "Go to hell." But surprisingly she decided to let go.

    The brown eyed girl rubbed her palm in a swift motion, as she felt the blood flow return to normal. Ikhny sensed tears coming to her eyes and she wondered how come she didn't start crying before.

   "Ikhny! Are you alright?!" The blue haired boy came up closely to study her hand. After a brief dose of examination, Mick looked up at Ikhny oddly. The girl got confused by his expression; she could never read her new partner's thoughts after all.

  "Wha-" 

  "Oh you poor thing! You're hurt! We need to get you to the emergency room as soon as possible!" Ikhny didn't even get the chance to reply, when the much caring Mick picked her up in his arms and hurriedly carried her out in the hallway.

   "Ah! Mick, stop it! I can walk by myself, I'm not *that* injured!"

   "Oh yes you are! I will save you Ikhny, you'll see." The she struggled violently, causing the boy to stop and let go of her.

   "No, I can walk by myself. Seriously Mick, I can." Several moments of uncomfortable silence passed by, and the grey eyed boy bowed his head in apology.

   "Is, is, is that the thing that I do, that you are always so annoyed with?" he looked at the girl with the puppy-dog look. She instantly forgot her frustration toward him and smiled brightly. He was sorry.

   "Yes, but don't worry – I still like you." The chocolate haired girl watched his eyes widen.

   "Y-you what?" Ikhny just caught herself saying something…something she didn't mean to say…well, she meant to say it, but apparently Mick took it in the wrong way.

   "I – I…nothing…" She smiled lightly. "What I meant to say was that…you are still my friend." Yes, the word "friend" would be a much better choice, but it was too late. She had already put the idea into his little head, and the idea, perhaps would grow to other levels.

    But…maybe the things weren't as bad after all. Maybe it would be nice if the two of them would…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "Ooh Gner, I must say I never thought that your personal mission would be to spy on your ex-repairer…or should I say your ex-repairer and her newfound boyfriend?" A quiet sneaky voice slightly startled the young candidate.

    "Shut up, Hidgi." His cold glare met her sardonic one. Tarria chuckled lightly, as she watched Hiead, and was amused at what she saw. The silver haired boy was leaning against the cold GOA wall and gazed upon the couple of teenagers walking away, *hand in hand*. Tarria heard him clear his throat in contempt, as he narrowed his garnet eyes.  

    "Jealous?" She asked playfully.

    "No," was Hiead instant response, while he continued watching the pair.

    "Oh really?"

    "This is none of your business Hidgi." His stern voice got more dangerous.

    "Okay, okay! I never said a thing. You are NOT jealous." She emphasized the last words, so that it sounded like an opposite of what she said.

    "Go to hell." Idiot. Tarria smiled in satisfaction.

    This was ridiculous. He wouldn't possibly give that Tarria-bitch her pleasure of humiliating him. Hiead frowned, as he continued watching the sickening sight before his eyes. Allecto and her stupid, idiotic, and pathetically jumpy little partner, who she seemed to adore. Idiots. And that Mick guy was the stupidest. Surely Hiead wouldn't be *jealous* over some dumb ass. Hell! He wouldn't be jealous anyhow! With Mick, or without. All because of Allecto? HA! This was too much. What in the hell was he thinking, when he even considered Hidgi's idea? Watching the two most pathetic people in the universe should make him envious? Surely not.   

    Just then, a very frustrated Azuma walked up to the pair. "Candidate Repairer 87, Tarria Hidgi." The black haired girl turned to salute him.

    "Sir."

    "We've got to talk, there's a problem."

    "With who, sir?"

    "With you."

     TO BE CONTINUED…

    Olya / cardcaptor girl's notes: Dear Chevira Lowe, thank you for such nice review you gave me. And now I'm proud to say: 'I don't suck'….well…not completely, at least. Thanks for all the encouraging; it meant a lot to me.

   In this chapter I also say thanks to Babyshiro, AnimeObsessed, obsession 117, and to Kaiyo-henshin for getting time to review all the previous chapters, even if you didn't have to. Thank you all. I'll thank the rest in my next chapter. (^_^)
