Welcome back to my ficcy. At the last chapter , I used some Japanese words. I decided to type everything in English, except for the -san, -kun, -chan, -sama, -sensei, Otousan, Okasan, aniki, , Onii-chan, One-chan and all those word you use to show honor or politeness. I figured that it sounds silly to call your older brother 'older brother', or 'brother' all the time.

Anyway this is an alternative fic. It's an H/M whether you like it or not. Sorry Tamahome/ Miaka fans. Sorry Taka fans. I really prefer Alternative Pairings since they are so unique.

And I'm really sorry about the names. I am not from Japan.

And finally, everyone here is STRAIGHT. No male to male or girl to girl relationship. Erlack!

Have you figured who the boy is? No? Then read. Remember, their last names still comes first.

Chapter 2: The new girl

"You..." came Miaka, a bit surprised, "you've grown up, Chiriko!"

"I'm sorry," came the boy, "You must be mistaking me for someone. My name is Tsukushi, Tsukushi Odou"

"I'm Yuuki, er, Akaseikun Miaka. " said Miaka shaking hands with the boy, "Nice to meet you"

"Are you new here in Akihabara University? I've never seen you before." commented Odou.

"Uh-huh. I just transferred from Tokyo University [isn't that a school for smart people?]."

"Tokyo University? Wow, you must be real smart!"

"Well not really." said Miaka, blushing from the comment.

"Anyway," came Odou, "I hope we become good friends."

"Thanks, Tsukushi-san."

"Call me Odou."

"Call me Miaka, Odou-kun"

So the two became friends. Aw. [They seem like two kindergarteners, with bright shiny faces that is quite tempting to hit]

"ODOU!!!" came a deep angry voice, "Odou wait up!"

Odou and Miaka looked at the owner of the voice. It was a tall boy [or man] with a long brown hair tied neatly in a low pony tail. The guy hit Odou in the head, while Miaka sweat dropped.

"What kind of brother are you to leave me alone with those hormonally-challenged girls?!?!" He screamed at poor Odou. The guy caught Miaka staring at the corner of his eyes and started to act decent, 'She looks cute,' he thought to himself, 'and by that nervous look, I'd say she's new here.'

"Hello. You seem quite new here." said the guy.

"Ah! I'm Yu, er Akaseikun Miaka. I'm new here." said Miaka, a little nervous. 'He looks like Hotohori' she thought

"This is my aniki, Miaka-san," said Odou, "He's Seishuku onii-chan"

"Nice to meet you, Miaka-san, you can call me Sei for short. My family and friends call me that." said Seishuku, holding out a hand which Miaka shook.

"Nice to meet you to Sei-sempai," replied Miaka.

"We best go," said Sei, to the two.

The three walked together and dropped Miaka to the administration office and went to their respective classrooms.

* * At Odou's Homeroom * *

"class, we have a new student," said the professor, " Please welcome miss Akaseikun,"

Miaka entered the classroom nervously. When she saw Odou grinning at her, all her nervousness went away.

"Tsukushi-kun kindly raise your hand so Ms. Akaseikun here can take her sit down"

Odou did what he was told. When she got near her sit, Odou gave her a high five.

* * Later, at Sei's homeroom * *

It was lunchtime, and Sei sat at his table, eating lunch.

"Hey, you know, there was this new kid, about Odou's age" he said to his three best friends, Ryu, the black-semi-purple-haired soccer captain [a.k.a. Nuriko to those of you who doesn't recognize], Paul, the red-headed foreigner who can play ten instruments [a.k.a. Tasuki] , and Kouji [well, everyone else is reincarnated, so let's have him in the fic as well], the coolest prankster in Akihabra college.

"What, do you want us to play a prank on him?" asked Kouji through a mouthful of sandwich.

"Count me in!" wailed Paul.

"Sorry, guys, I can't join. Soccer tournament would be next week. I can't risk it." said Ryu.

"No, guys," said Sei, "Not play a prank on the kid. She's pretty cute, I just want to tell you guys about her,"

"Ooh," came Ryu, "I didn't know she was a girl"

"Yeah, " came Paul, "I thought the kid was a he."

"What happened to you, Sei?" said Kouji, "Cupid finally shot you,"

"Nah, I think it's testosterone," Ryu said, sniggering.

"Puberty has come!" the three taunted Sei, despite the fact that he had his puberty just a year later than they all had.

"No, really." said Sei, blushing a little, "I mean it. She's cute, like my brother."

"Oh, you mean innocent?" asked his best friend Ryu.

"Yeah, exactly," said Sei, "but, she looks a little, I don't know, mature. You know, like she have seen everything horrible in the world."

"Really?" they all asked.

"Uh-huh" he replied.

"Why don't we take a look at this girl?" suggested Paul.

* * At Odou and Miaka's Homeroom * *

Miaka was sitting quietly by herself, eating lunch. 'It's like the first day in school, only without Yui,' she thought to herself.

She was gazing at nowhere when suddenly, she was tapped by someone, from her side.

"You seem lonely," said Odou, giving her a slice of cake,

"I guess," she said blushing, "It's a little weird to find myself in this exclusive school."

"Akaseikun is your surname right?" he asked.

"No, it's Yuuki, er wait, no, I mean yes, I mean"

"Eh? Yuuki? You keep saying Yuuki,"

"Well, I was really born as Akaseikun, but when I was three, my okasan and otosan divorced, and I had my mother's last name. I ran away from Tokyo, and, and I went to my Otousan to live with him, just last two weeks ago."

"Wow, so, it's like you had --"

Odou didn't got the chance to say what he wanted to say because the two heard screaming and wailing outside their homeroom. Instinctively, the two looked at the hallway to find the reason.

It was four guys. One of them was Sei, Odou's brother.

"Hi," greeted Odou to the four.

"Hello, Odou-chan," the four chorused [obviously, they rehearsed]

"Miaka-san," said Sei, "I figured you don't have much friends yet, so I'll introduce you to some of mine. " He pointed to Paul and said," this is Jean Paul. He's from France."

"Hello, Miaka-chan" said Paul, grinning, "Call me Paul.

"Er, hi, Paul-sempai," said Miaka, nervously.

"Don't be scared of his fangs, " joked Ryu, "he's harmless. I'm Ryu, Sei's best friend."

"Hi, "greeted Miaka.

"And I'm Kouji," said, Kouji. He leaned to Miaka and whispered, "don't tell anybody, but I'm the most wanted prankster in school,"

"Hello, " said Miaka, to Kouji.

Miaka felt at ease. She was finally surrounded by her friends. Her old friends. Even if they can't remember anything about her.

Wow, that was longer than I expected. Anyway, I hope you liked it. If ever you want more, just say so in the review. Please review. I beg you, please!!!

I have a little explanation about Akihabara University. As you see, the students stay in their homerooms, not go around, loitering the school grounds, unless it's important or they're having their break. I made Akihabara university to be jut like high school since it is an exclusive school. Meaning, the teachers go to the homeroom. They also wear uniforms. I know that in universities, you don't wear uniforms, but, I think a school looks better with uniformed students. The school is also not strict on what hair you'd like.

Until next time.
