Konichiwa!
I'm back! Man! It feels so nice to sit again in our computer and type this thing. You see, even school has started, my mind is still floating over this fic, thinking of new craziness to add. I don't have much time so I'll do the review response next chapter.

Chapter 10Day 3: Waking up
"Do you know that Kirishima Yuta is now a gay?"
"What the-!?"
"How could it be?!"
"Mr. Kirishima, is that true? How could you?"
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"Kirishima Yuta woke up in cold sweat. Panting, he clutched the shirt he was wearing. That dream he had was so weird to the point that it scared the hell out of him.
"Do you know that Kirishima Yuta is now a gay?"
"ARGH! Stop replaying that in my mind! OUCH!" Due to his desperation, his head accidentally hit the headboard.
After massaging his head for a while, Yuta cracked open an eye and stared around his room.
Sunrays filled the room with a golden hue. Birds chirped merrily outside the huge French windows.
'That's strange. I couldn't remember anything that happened after lunch... but... why do I feel so alive? As if I was born again..' Yuta wondered in his head. Shrugging the thought off, he sat up and continued his gaze around the room.
He really doesn't know the reason but it seems that there's something in the room that should not be there, something peculiar. As if there was an Eskimo, complete with his suit, standing in the Sahara desert at 12 noon. And he didn't have to turn the room upside down just to find it.
It was right in front of him.
"Okay, this is definitely not my room," Yuta remarked with an eyebrow raised.
Who wouldn't be? Imagine you are in Yuta's situation right now. He woke up refreshed and all...just then, a pile of used make-ups littered all over his room.
"What are these things doing here on my room?" Yuta asked to no one in particular, trying to remain calm. Instinctively, he got out of bed and examined each.
"Mascara... blush-on.." he started reading the labels, "Lipstick..." veins started appearing into his temples. His eyes suddenly fell on a heap of mismatched clothes piled up into his table. Out of curiosity, he got up and examined them also. Picking up the top pink cloth, he screamed in utmost terror.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" his scream echoed through out the whole mansion that it was almost enough to wake a sleeping vampire.
"Yuta!? What's wrong?!" Mito arrived in a flash as the door almost cracked due to force. She was still dressed in her nightgown, hair wildly covering her face. Behind her, Nina yawned, dragging her feet towards Yuta's room.
"Wha's 'rong 'uta" she asked sleepily.
Yuta was shaking with terror. The pair of brown eyes was wide with shock. As he opened his mouth, no sound came out. He raised his arm and pointed at the innocent pink cloth that now fell to the floor.
Mito raised her eyebrows. She picked up the cloth and surveyed it for a moment. It seems that she was also utterly shocked by the material.
"Whacha heck is goin' on 'ere?" Tsujiai asked sleepily, rubbing his eyes. Behind him, Mikami-sensei, Kaji, and the prince appeared. Nina shook her head, signaling that she knows nothing.
Tsujiai turned his head towards Mito, who was still holding the pink cloth with an indefinable expression on her face, then to Yuta who was in the verge of collapsing. He then refocused his attention to the pink object and remarked the obvious.
"That's a bikini, isn't?"
Yuta began screaming again at the top of his lungs. "I KNEW IT! WHY IN THE WORLD WILL I HAVE A BIKINI IN MY ROOM! AHHHH! WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING HERE!"
Yuta turned sharply towards his companion, pleading that they may help him in his dilemma but what they did was just whistle.
"M-maybe it j-just got mixed up your c-clothes, Yuta," Mito explained carefully. 'Can I tell Yuta that she wore this bikini with uttermost grace a few hours ago?'
Yuta turned to his sister. "You mean this is yours...?" he asked barely above a whisper. "But... THE SIZE OF THIS IS SMALLER UNLIKE YOURS! WHY IN THE WORLD IS THIS IN MY ROOM! I WANNA GO HOME! ALL THAT HAPPENED TO ME HERE IS JUST FULL CRAZINESS!"
"How dare you!" Mito suddenly stood to her full height. Eyes blazing, she narrowed them. "Do you mean that I don't have a figure...?" she asked dangerously while Yuta gulped. "No good, my dear brother."
"Erm... Mito-chan, I think tha-that's not what Yuta really meant," Mikami-sensei reasoned out as he tried to calm an angered Mito.
Mito narrowed her eyes further as she turned them to Mikami-sensei. And then, she smiled; the twinkle in her eyes glowed even more. "Don't worry, Mikami-sensei, I could never get angry with Yuka- I mean, Yuta," Mito said cheerfully as she made her way out of the door. "Oh, I heard that we'd be going to town today so better go down for breakfast now. La la la la la" Mito sang.
The remaining people in the room cocked their heads to their sides. "Okay, that was weird to the fullest."
----------------------------
The beautiful scenery of the morning greeted Yuta as he made his way down to the dinning hall.
'How dare my companions! Leaving me there in my room full of... full of... EVIL THINGS! Things that are bad for me!'
Fuming, he stopped at the door leading to the hall.
'What if there's something crazy going on the other side of this door? What if something bad would happen again?' Yuta shuddered remembering the incident yesterday.
'Strange, though, I can't seem to remember a thing...'
"Yuta-kun, what are you doing here?"
Yuta turned around swiftly, ready for any attack from an evil entity but instead; he faced a girl with long dark brown hair.
"Phew! Don't' scare me like that, Ayu," Yuta sighed in relief.
"Erm.. Yeah." was the only words Ayu uttered.
"Is there something wrong?" Yuta asked after noticing how uncomfortable Ayu was. Add also that she was smiling rather strangely.
'Hmm... What's wrong with all of you, people! Why do you look at me with that kind of expression!'
"N-nothing really... hahaha!" Ayu nervously answered. 'Can't tell him he was a gay yesterday.' "Um.. Shall we go inside now?"
"Um.. Okay," Yuta responded, shrugging the suspicion into thin air.
-------------------------------
Luna paced the corridor leading to the guest's room. She kept flexing her fingers over a flask. Glancing at her clock she whispered, "They should be here any moment."
She was waiting for Nina and Tsujiai, the two troublemakers, together with Yuta. Why, you ask? Well...
===Flashback===
It was a few hours after the Jusenkyo Potion lost its effect and Luna was watching the moon in the balcony. She sighed. She knew she has fallen for the prince but she doesn't have any time to talk to him.
It's either he hides or he dodges.
Simple.
Knowing that fact, Luna became more depressed. She also knew that Maya's parents' were setting her up for the prince. It was hard but Maya is her best friend so she must accept whatever her decision will be, even if it meant losing the prince.
"Hi, Luna!" Luna turned to see who spoke. It was Nina. She was glancing nervously at her mutual partner in crime, Tsujiai.
"What do you want?" Luna asked dryly.
"Erm.. well," Nina started. Inhaling deeply, she faced Luna, face determined like a soldier willing to die for his country. "Luna, we know you do have something for the prince. We would like to help you."
Luna was caught off-guard. Nina and Tsujiai were willing to help her? Amazing? Weird? Something's fishy? Whatever it is, Luna decided to play with them.
"What do you get in return?"
Nina looked at Tsujiai, asking for help. He spoke in a calm voice, "A wedding maybe between Kirishima Yuta and Orihara Maya?"
Luna broke into a soft laugh. Setting up Maya and Yuta? Impossible! And how does she come in? Really, this is weird... or maybe weirder than she thought.
"You're joking."
"Not really. We just want to make a happy ending between those two. Of course, also with you and the prince, that is if you cooperate with us," Tsujiai answered intelligently. Nina silently congratulated him.
Luna was speechless. It seems these two are serious. Hmmm.. maybe setting the two up may not be a bad idea after all. And there's a chance that she could be with the prince. Hmm... good enough.
"Okay. Count me in. So, what are we going to do?" Luna said.
Tsujiai and Nina faced each other and a mischievous smile appeared on their lips.
"Here's the plan..."
===End of Flashback====
Luna smiled mischievously. The plan was simple -very simple. And she has all plans to cooperate with it.
However, no one warned them that danger would soon arise.

So what do you think? Please review!!!
Ooh! What is the plan? And what did the last statement mean?
I won't spill it of course.
Anyway, I know this is short 'cause school is really getting on my nerves. I wish I could skip school even for one day but no! I can't miss 9 subjects in a day! Argh!
But I only have one thing to say: PHYSICS RULEZ! YEAH! It's my favorite subject.
