Episode 1: The Ice Bodyguard

"The night was cold and raining. I was walking in the streets alone surrounded by dirty mud. I don't know where I was heading; all I know is that I need to search for someone. I don't know how many days or years I've been looking for him. I don't know his name but I know his appearance. I don't even know who I am and where I came from and I know the one who I am searching for knows. I saw a tall man twice as old as me and he looked at me. I couldn't see his face clearly but all I know is that everyone is cruel in this world. He held out a hand and told me to follow him saying that he ill help me."

A few months passed after Toya determined and decided to go with Aya over his past, Yagami was disappointed of osing a great guard like Toya but still he had a back up. He leaned on his cozy chair and took off his glasses. He rested his elbows on his desk, thinking.

"I guess it's time to use 'her'," He massaged his forehead, "Even though it's too early." He gazed at his phone on the right and he looked quite determined. He picked the receiver up and dialed a number. "This is Mikagi Yagami, I want to see 'her' this afternoon in my office," He ordered.

" 'Her'?" But Yagami-san..." Someone paused in the phone, "It's too early to use 'her'."

"I've decided," He replied solemnly.

"Hai, Yagami-san," The phone hung up.

He replaced the receiver and turned his chair to look at a big image of Ceres behind him, "Aya, you won Toya but you won't win 'her'!" An evil grin slashed across his face.

Aya was eating and suddenly she saw the celestial Crest again and heard Ceres mumbling about her robe (Mana). She sweat dropped feeling strange. "Ceres?"

"What's the matter, Aya-san?" Chidori asked curiously. The others were worried. She looked at them. "I don't know..." She replied and felt Toya touching her neck from behind, "Toya?" Yuuhi had irritated eyes.

"If you feel insecure, I am here for you..." Toya reassured her and gave her a warm hug. Aya relaxed and nodded.

"Yagami-san, she's here," His secretary confirmed from the phone.

"Let her in," He ordered and looked at the door. A girl entered and she looked serious. Her fair face looked exactly like Ceres but her long hair was light silver and she had dark silver eyes. She was wearing a light black vest that reached to her waist inside a dark black jacket with long flat-bottomed jeans.

"Welcome, Koori-ana," He greeted casually and she didn't react.

"What? Yagami-san called Koori-ana out?" Wei slammed the table top standing, "Why her?"

They shrugged. "We heard she was called out without a reason." "Is it because I am useless?" He rushed out and headed towards Yagami's room.

Back in Yagami's room, it was quiet, quite like the burrow of a mouse. "So from now on, you'll be Mikagi Aki's bodyguard and the enemy of Mikagi Aya," He made a conclusion after explaining. He looked at her again, "If you could capture other C genomes, I will help you get your memories. I know you won't disobey me."

"Protect Mikagi Aki and be the enemy of his twin..." She repeated still with no expression, not evil nor good.

"Yes," He pushed his glasses up, "Let me show you Mikagi Aki." He ordered her to follow her and she followed from behind.

"This is not what I wanted... being an enemy of someone but Yagami-san had helped me always. Giving me a place to stay and study. For sure he will help me get my memories back," She thought following him from behind and stopped when they saw Wei.

"Wei?" Yagami questioned, "What are you doing here?"

"Yagami-san!" He puffed and pointed at the girl, "Why did you called Koori-ana out?" He felt a deep stare from her. "You know I can protect Master Aki."

"Yes you can," Yagami didn't protest, "But because you are powerless over Toya and Ceres, you wouldn't and couldn't protect Aki from them." He walked pass him; "Let's go, Koori-ana."

She passed him as he fisted. The other co-workers ran over to him asking. "I agree with Yagami-san here. Koori-ana is the better to fight over Ceres and Toya."

Aki was alone in his room looking at fishes in the aquarium full of blue water, as he was feeling blue. Yagami knocked at the door, "Aki, it's me, Yagami. May I come in?" He entered and saw him near the aquarium. "What's the matter?" He asked and saw his breakfast untouched, "You didn't eat your breakfast again."

"I don't feel like eating, I am not hungry," He leaned on the sofa.

"Well, do what ever you want but I came here to introduce you someone," He pointed at the girl, "This is Koori-ana, she will be your permanent body-guard from now on. Are you okay with this?"

He gazed at her and saw Aya smiling. He quickly stood up, "Aya?" "No. She's not Aya even though she looks the same," Yagami corrected.

"Is she my cousin?" Aki pointed and Yagami shook his head. Aki started staring at her, "Aya..."

Aki kept staring at her imagining that Koori-ana was Aya. She had a deep glare, "Why are you an enemy of your own twin?"

Aki bit his lips; "Her inner self hates me, calling me a rapist and a thief. I am in love with the inner her."

"The Celestial Ceres hates you..." She looked outside the window.

"But she is my younger sister! I have been a part from her for a year now!" He screamed back and she didn't reply.

"My work is only to protect you from her and I am not interested any other," She confirmed and sat down. "Did my cousin promise you to give you your memory if you follow his orders like Toya?" He turned at her.

"Toya..." She had a little expression of sad, "Everyone wants to know who he or she is and where they came from. If that is the deal, I would intend to do anything just to get my memories back."

"I see... so that's your opinion..." He rested her lower jaw onto his knees.

She looked at him and looked at the food on the table. She stood up and picked the tray to him. "Aki..."

He looked up at her, "What is it?" He looked at the breakfast.

"Get some energy and rest... that way, you can feel that you are helping yourself and also your younger sister. After all, you are twins," She advised like an older sister to him, "You know twins are 'One heart in two'. Share the same happiness and also the same sorrow."

He looked up at her. Her words were persuadable but her face showed like as if she didn't mean it. "You're my body-guard not my maid," He corrected, "You can't order me around like Grandpa and my cousin."

"I am not ordering you around. I am working like I am supposed to do," She placed the tray in front of him, "Get some energy... and I know you don't sleep at night." She walked away, "If anything happens, press this red button." She pointed a button, "I'll be here." She walked out.

Aki stared at his breakfast with trembling eyes and remembered Koori-ana's words. He lay his head down and started eating. He agreed what she had told him.

Koori-ana walked through the corridor heading towards the front door. She was thinking. She saw Toya in her mind; "I'll find you so you can tell me what I really am..."
