PROLOGUE :
Belldandy was sitting next a pond, meditating. It has been some time since she had been reassigned from the Goddess helpline. Her current reassignment was.... Standby relief. Her sisters, Urd and Skuld were also reassigned to Standby. Whereas Urd relished the chance to do nothing and hang around bars and restaurants and Skuld could devote more time to designing new inventions (the last one she designed and created helped Yggdrasil run more efficiently than it has ever done before.), whilst eating Ice Cream. However, she also had to study and go to Goddess training classes.
Belldandy, on the other hand, found it to be.... disconcerting. She was the Goddess of the Present, one of the Norns. And to be stuck doing nothing, felt anathema to herself, she wanted to DO something, anything. But, she and her sisters had their orders. Their father, Odin, or more simply known as "Father", had ordered them into their current state. The only reason he gave them, was he had a special project for them, one which would be theirs for quite some time. Urd had shrugged and walked out of the throne room saying she didn't mind, nor care. Skuld, whilst happy for being given a high profile assignment, didn't like the idea of being on Midgard for any length of time. Belldandy, had an inkling as to what it entailed.
Belldandy sighed as she remembered what she had learned from her predecessor, a failure which another, who wore the mantle of Goddess of the Present, had made. The person in question had failed her charges, they had died their destiny unrevealed and their souls left wandering the myriad timelines. Belldandy, being the ever-resourceful Goddess she is, had uncovered some information, pertinent to her current situation. These two souls had been reborn on Midgard, and drawing her own conclusion, she had guessed they were part of the 'special' assignment Father had waiting for them.
She would not fail them. Where her predecessor had failed, she would succeed.

The atmosphere of the Hinata Sou, usually is one of happiness, shenanigans and the kanrinrin being sent into the atmosphere. Usually, by this time in the morning, Keitaro Urashima has been sent flying through numerous walls and ceilings. However, it was different, this time. No beatings, no shouts, nothing. All the residents were gathered in the lounge room as Haruka Urashima stepped down the stairs and approached them, her signature cigarette put out.
Mitsune "Kitsune" Konno looked at her.
"How is she?"
Haruka looked at her, then turned her gaze on everyone there.
"Obviously upset. She wants to be left alone, and for the time being, I think that'd be the most appropriate thing to do."
Shinobu Maehara, clutching the squid doll Keitaro had won for her at the beach festival, spoke.
"Will Naru-senpai be alright?"
Before Haruka could reply, a black cat flew down and landed on the table. The cat looked at Shinobu.
"She'll be alright. This is Naru we're talking about, nya."
Motoko Aoyama, master kendoist, stood.
"Kuro, firstly, this is a matter which concerns everyone here, so we have a right to be concerned. Secondly, why are you here? You were with Kanako."
"I came back early Motoko. Seems it was the right thing to do."
Motoko looked towards the door and saw Keitaro's younger sister, Kanako, standing there. Next to her was Seta Noriyasa and Sarah McDougal. They made their way towards them.
Seta looked at Haruka.
"We heard on the radio what had happened. Kanako, remembered that Naru had family in that location thought it'd be prudent if we got back here in a hurry, so...."
Haruka nodded.
"Thank you."
Su came running in with the mail, and deposited it on the table.
"Mail call." She said, softly.
Keitaro glanced at the mail, three letters. One from the power company, one from the water company and one from....
"Australia?" He held up the letter and looked at it. It was addressed to Naru.
Haruka saw the look on Keitaro's face, and glanced at the letter.
"If it's from Australia, and it's for Naru, it's her penpal, my cousin's son."
"Shall I take it to her?"
Tamago, also known as Tama, flew over to Keitaro, and snatched the letter from his hand. She turned and flew upstairs. Mutsumi Otohime smiled softly.
"Fu, fu, fu, it looks like Tama will deliver the letter instead Kei-kun."
Everyone looked at Mutsumi.

In room 304 :
The blinds were pulled tightly shut, allowing only the barest trace of sunlight into the room. The room's lone occupant, sat in a corner, her knees drawn tight against her chest. Her long hair cascading down her shoulders and partly obscuring her tear stained face. Haruka had told her devastating news. Her mother and stepfather had been killed in a car accident in Hokkaido. Her stepsister, Mei, was in the hospital, in a coma.
Before she was told about what had happened, she had been studying hard, to pass the entrance exams to Toudai. She had failed once, and had made a promise with Keitaro to get into Toudai this year. They had dated a couple of times, but when Mutsumi moved into the nearby apartments, Keitaro and Mutsumi started to date. Seeing as Naru didn't want to date Keitaro on a regular basis and be his girlfriend, Keitaro and Mutsumi got together and have been together ever since.
Now, all Naru wanted was to be alone. In a flash, she had lost everything. Around her were pictures she had of her parents and stepsister. She regretted not going back home, even for a visit. For not even speaking to them when they rang the Hinata Sou on her birthday. She had cut them out of her life, and now regretted it deeply. She reached out and picked up a picture she had of her and Mei, before she came to the Hinata Sou. As she looked at the picture, tears sprang from her eyes, and she bowed her head.
Tama quietly flew in and landed on the kotetsu, looking at Naru, the letter she dropped on the surface of the heated table.
"Myuh."
Naru looked at Tama, through tear stained eyes.
"I can't play with you now Tama-chan. **sniff, sniff** Please, go away. I just want to be left alone."
Tama, still looking at Naru, motioned to the letter with her left flipper. Then she bowed to Naru and flew off, into the tunnel which she had flown through to get into Naru's room. Naru watched the turtle leave, before looking at the letter sitting on the table's edge. She bowed her head, and cried.
