A/N: Before I start, some reviewer comments!
Prince of Dragons: I acctually like that idea, If I can't figure out what I want to do with his dating situation that very well may be what I do. Thanks for the B, it's a great start!
Nathalist: lol, Hey we may all be members of the Dark icon but we do have seperate works as well. Keitaro DOES have a backbone, I agree with everyone else that says that the tactic gets old after a while.
Tornado: Yea, he got stronger, i'm going to explain what happened over that year in this chapter here. As for the paring of Kei and Kits, it might happen. I'm not sure just yet... I acctually have deeper plans for her but who knows what might happen?
Dark-Canine69: Thanks, this chapter is coming out this quick just for you... I should be working on my other fics in my own screenname (Dimitri Plabato) but, you know how it is.
Ice Fire: Thanks! Yea, that is one crazy story! I started reading it at school and I kept getting all sorts of weird looks from my classmates... NEVER print out fanfiction and read it in highschool... it makes you look crazy.
Sci-Fi Raptor: Demon...? Keitaro? Cool... but naw not in this fic.
Anyone I forgot THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR REVIEWING! And I see that some of you read our other story "BS To THE MAX!" lol, ummm no that isn't how we write all the time (wait... umm) and as I said in the chapter... I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FORTH CHAPTER! I JUST POSTED IT!
A/N: Wow, a lot of good reviews so far and not a single flame yet. Thats not normal for me yet. Thanks! For once I don't have much to say so let me leave it on this note. Go check out the rest of the Dark Icon's stories (you can find our seperate profile addresses inside this profile) we could use the support. We also do original stories and stuff so drop us a line. And I am a HUGE fan of Akamatsu's newest work Negima so you might find a couple of references as in looks from that later on within the fic. Well on to chapter two!

Chapter Two: Moonlight Sinada pt. 1
The young man bowed in the hallways of Hinata house down towards his blade which was lying on the ground, a slight smile on his face as he said "The name is Keitaro Urashima, and i'm your manager." Time passed for about thirty seconds before anyone was able to say a thing. The silence was broken by the slight chattering of one young chef "S...sempai?" came the voice of Shinobu as she walked over to the man, not missing his looks among the way and this put a deeper blush on her face. "Hey Shinobu, been a while eh?" he said standing up straight once again and then putting his hand on the back of his neck in his normal fashion which caused everyone's mind to click back into place as they all rushed to the young man, their arms wide out as they embraced him in a deep group hug and all asked "Where have you been Keitaro!"
"Ahh, yes... that does seem to be an good question that you might want to answer..." came a lone lovely voice from a figure who was leaning against the nearby wall. Her arms crossed and a cigar in her mouth, she looked at her nephew with a stern look. "Haruka." Keitro said as she the girls let him go. "You acctually went through with it?" she asked him walking over to the rest of the group. "Yes, I thought it was about time." he responded, the same look of emotionless and hardness on his face as well "Well, either ways. It's good to have you back. Though I guess..." she paused as she did an unexpected move and ...bowed... towards her nephew "Now I have to treat you with a little more respect." Keitaro grinned as he returned the bow "That's okay aunt Haru..." he was now holding the side of his nose as he looked up at her and she said "I said a little more respect... don't push it." "Yes ma'am..." he smirked.
"Okay... now that all that's over... mind telling us what the heck has been going on? Where have you been for the past year? What have you been doing?" these were all questions that came from the girls as Haruka and Keitaro finished up their conversation. "Heh, how did I know I was going to be bombarded by questions the moment that I walked inside? Very well..." he paused to bend back down and pick up his blade "Do you mind if we go inside first?" he asked as everyone got up and then moved inside of the huge dorm. They all sat down in the living room, Keitaro in the middle. He nodded and then sat on the sofa indian style, his blade sitting in his lap. "Okay you all where to start?" he asked looking around at all the girls who had strange looks upon their faces.
' Se...pai he has grown so much... he's a lot better looking than he use to be... Na-ni...what am I thinking?' came the thoughts of the simple Shinobu... everyone else's thought among the same line ' Keitaro... wow, talk about a serrious difference... even I might have to start being a little more 'adventerous' ' came the thoughts of Su as she stopped bouncing up and down the walls for once and steadly watched Keitaro's muscles ' Kei-kun... what the heck did you do while you were gone... you've gotten so...' Kitsune trailed off, a light blush on her face 'Urashima...' Motoko thought, a stern look still on her face but a faint blush was also there if you looked hard enough 'I sense something different about your aura...' 'Keitaro... wow.' were all the things that hte mind of Naru could come up with.
Keitraro innerly grinned. He had changed alot and no it was not all just physical. He had become a master at being able to tell what the people around him were feeling... he gave himself a secret laugh as he coughed and then brought everyone else back to the real world. "You guys okay?" he asked "Huh? Oh Sorry!" they all said at the same time, looking down to the ground in order to hide their non hidden blushes, at seeing this even Haruka had to crack a laugh towards her nephew... he had grown, that's for sure. "So anyways, where we're we?" Keitaro asked, a simple question indeed, one that would cause many other questions.
"Wow, where to begin?" came the lone voice of Su, a serrious tone in her background, this caused Keitaro to raise an eyebrow, it was ...unexpected... of the young Molmol princess to act the way that she was acting. "I think that i'll leave the most obvious questions to the others, i'll ask the main one on my mind though." she stated, her light eyes burning into Keitaro's as she spoke, an evil grin played on her face as she asked "It's simple to see that you've changed... what caused that will most likely come up in another quesiton though. But what I really want to know is... what did this transformation into a man do to you?" Su Kaolla asked, the evil grin never leaving her face, and it was matched by the one that Keitaro gave to her, he knew what she was thinking and as his hand reached for his belt clip, two lone voices rang out "KEITARO!...URASHIMA!... DIE!" the two warriors Motoko Ayoyama, Samurai and Naru Narusagawa, Bruce Lee Wannabe jumped up into the air, weapons out... Keitaro grinned at Su who gave him a flat out smile, she was testing him, might as well give her a good example of what he could do now since she wanted to play that way. As the two flew towards him no one was expecting anything as he calmly said the words "Urashima Hog Tie". A short harpoon then flew from his hands, a rope around it as it circled around the two females who never reached their target since they were now tied together back to back. "Huh? Whats going on!" Naru screamed as she tried to get her way out of the rope "Let us go!" Motoko screamed, her blade no where in site.
Keitaro laughed slightly as he looked at Su who had a pleased look on her face. "So you really have changed alot haven't you?" Su asked "You could say that." Keitaro grinned at her before he turned onto the now tied up teens with a sour look on his face. "As for you two, I thought a year apart would make you guys stop jumping to conclusions..." his eyes turned a little darker as he said "I have taken it a little too long, don't expect me to take it anymore..." and with the snap of his fingers the rope around the two girls fell. "Wha?" was all that the two could say as a young voice picked up.
"Yes Shinobu, what would you like to ask me?" Keitaro asked, turning to her with a knowing look. "Yes, Keitaro-Sempai..." he voice cracked a little under the blush that she was showing at the moment. "Are you back for good?" She asked, the courage never leaving her as she spoke. "Hai, Shinobu-Chan, that I am." At that moment a soft cough came from the aunt of Keitaro, Haruka. Keitaro knew her question already... "Let me guess, you want me to tell them what I have been up to for the past year?" he asked "You know it." she said, pulling out another cigar and lighting it. "It was going to come up sooner or later anyways so might as well tell us." came the strangely calm voice of Naru as she looked at the young man who her heart (and body... but this is pg-13) had been aching for over the past year. Keitaro nodded and then said "Very well...It started that day that I left, Naru kept hitting me and I figured that I could only take so much more so I decided...
:Flashback:
Keitaro Urashima, manager of the Hinata Sou Girls dorm walked the soft streets of Tokyo, just trying to get some alone time so that he could think about what he wanted to do with his time. Go home? No, his parents didn't want him there anymore. Go back to the dorm? And risk getting hit again and getting his heart damaged? HA! yea right. Then it came to him... he took off in a run, now knowing exactly where he was going...
It took Keitaro three hours on foot to run to the place that he was headed. He paused in front of a red building which had the symbol of 'Midnight' on it. It was a dojo, and apparently a place that Keitaro knew very well. He nodded to himself as he walked up the driveway to the dojo, his eyes hiding an inner smile. He raised an hand to knock on the door but it opened before he could. "Wow..." came the voice of the door's opener. A young female stood at the door, looking at Keitaro with open eyes and mouth as her short black hair fell to the side of her head. She was about 5'6. She had a pair of light brown eyes. She was currently wearing an all black gi as she stared at the boy. The girl blinked at the boy who now had a hand on the back of his neck. "Been a while eh? Kanako-chan?" he smiled at the girl. "HAI!" The girl rushed into his arms and enbrached him in a deep hug. "ONI-CHAN!" screamed the young girl, one Kanako Urashima, the younger sister of Keitaro Urashima. "Hey K-chan." Keitaro said as he ran his fingers through his sister's black hair. She looked up at him, tears in her eyes. It had been so long since the last time that she had seen her older brother... he had changed that was for sure and she wasn't all that sure that it was all good.
She looked up at her brother, her tears stopping and being replaced by a serrious look. "What in the world have you been doing?" she asked her brother who sighed... "Its a long story Kanako-chan, a long story." Kanako grabbed her brother by his arm and then dragged him inside of the dojo. As they entered the dojo Keitaro looked around. The dojo had a simple red interior with blue flames drawn on the sides yet it wasn't the interior of the building that caught his attention, it was more or less the 'exterior' of a woman that he passed by. The young woman appeared around 25, she was wearing a red and white gi and had a blade at her side, it had a sakura tree in the hilt. She noticed his prolonged gaze and smiled at him, she was beautiful... The attention he was giving to the samurai didn't go unnoticed by Kanako though, she smiled back at her brother "Well nice to see that you still have an interest in beautiful women." "Nani?" Keitaro asked, a blush playing on his face. Kanako giggled at her brother's reaction "Her name is T.A; she's a samurai. I could try to hook you up with her if you want." "I might just take you up on that offer later Kanako." he smiled at her.
As Keitaro and Kanako arrived in her room and then closed the door, the two siblings sat down together, both with serrious looks on their faces as Kanako handed out a cup of tea to him. "Spill." she said sternly to her now sighing brother. "Where to begin?" he asked himself as he then began to tell her of his life at Hinata Sou. His childhood promise for Tokyo U. His broken dreams and destroyed heart. Kanako cried as she heard her brother's story, a deep hate developing for all of the girls that had tortured her brother's life. When he finished he was tackled by Kanako. "Why did you stay there, you should have just come here! Don't go back! Stay here!" she screamed at him. "Acctually, thats what i'm here for Kanako chan. I wanted to know if it was okay with you, if I stayed here and restarted my training as the propriotor of the Urashima style..."
