Crux: Here you go, the long awaited update of Will of The Heart !
MewWitch: What are you talking about? I only just posted the story a few days ago.
Will: Don't mind her. Crux has a tendency to be over dramatic.
Crux: What's that supposed to mean? I do not act dramatic!
Will: It means what it sounds like. Besides, how else am I gonna characterize your abnormal behavior?
Crux: NEVER BE NORMAL!
MewWitch: I think you just proved her point.
Crux: Whatever (suddenly moody) (Again!)
MewWitch:Okkaaayy...
Will & Ichigo: MewWitch does not own W.I.T.C.H. or Tokyo Mew Mew or any of the characters in them or the song Who Knows by Avril Lavigne. She does own Crux and Mew Blackberry and several other characters that have not made their debut, and probably won't for several chapters...Hey, what are you doing Will/Ichigo? It's my turn to do the disclaimer! Nuh uh...Yeah huh...nuh un! Stop saying what I'm saying! Cut.It.Out. Will/Ichigo!
MewWitch: FREAKY TWIN ALERT! FREAKY TWIN ALERT!
Crux: Jeez, I've known Will longer than she has, and we've never done that!
Ichigo: Calm down 'Miss Jealous'... Wait a minute...Who are you?
Everyone else: (falls over anime style)
Crux: (Sweatdrop) Your kidding right?
Will: (whispers)She hasn't meet you yet in the story.
Crux: (whispers back) Then why is she here?
Will: (whispers again while looking at MewWitch) I don't know, ask the authoress.
MewWitch: Oops...
MewWitch: On With The Story, but first some reviews.
KishxIchigo Forever: I didn't know that you liked W.I.T.C.H. either!
Mewstrawberry: Glad you liked it, and here's that update that you and KishxIchigo Forever both wanted.
MewWitch: And finally...On With The Story!
Will of The Heart
Chapter 2
Breakfast
Ichigo point of view:
"Why do you look so familiar
I could swear that I have seen your face before"
I walked down one of the many vast hallways, trying to find the source of the song.
"I think I like that you seem sincere
I think I'd like to get to know you a little bit more"
It was exactly one week since my sister Will had come to Tokyo. So far the two of us had been giving each other space, only speaking when we stumbled across each other. This rarely happened due to the sheer size of the house. Pendragon Manor was it's name or at least that was what Jones had told them when they first arrived. Jones was their guardian/driver/cook/whatever else they needed, though Ryou had taken to calling her 'the nanny'. Over the past seven days, she had taken control of my life, seeing that me and my sister felt right at home.
"I think there's something more
Life's worth living for"
The moment that we had arrived at the manor, we were immediately bombarded with questions from some of the world's best interior designers, wanting to know what we wanted our rooms to look like. In truth, each of us had not one room, but an entire floor! My friends had stepped right up to the plate, handing out orders about the decor. Lettuce had been surprisingly forceful, taking immediate charge of my bathing area. The others had divided up the rest of the suite. I had insisted though, on doing my bedroom myself.
"Who know what could happen
Do what you do
Just keep on laughing
One thing's true
There's always a brand new day
I'm gonna live today like it was my last day"
Will on the other hand had worked on her area alone, and generally avoided everyone except for Zakuro. The moment that they had meet they had taken an immediate liking to each other. If I'm remembering correctly, Zakuro was the only Mew who had actually she the inside of Will's rooms. I suppose it had to do with the Goth.-like impression that they both gave off.
"How do you always have an opinion
And how do you always find
the best way to compromise
We don't need to have a reason
We don't need anything
we're just wasting time"
That's why I was roaming the halls this early in the morning. Upon awakening today, I had heard someone singing somewhere downstairs. I soon realized it was Will, noticing the slight similarity to my own voice. It was strange to hear my normally soft-spoken sister (at least that was what I had come to view her as) singing with such strength and volume. What was even more puzzling was her choice in songs. During my wanderings, the melodies being sung were a variety of artists, including, Hilary Duff, Pink, Mandy Moore, and numerous others, that, like the one singing at the moment, that I couldn't recognize.(A.N. Those artists rock! I love 'em and don't care if you think I'm a geek!)
"I think there's something more
Life's worth living for"
While I was contemplating (A.N. Oooh..big word.) whether it really was my sister singing (singing extremely well now that I think about it), I realized that I barely knew a thing about my newly found sibling. 'We're twins for crying out loud' I thought to myself as I passed the same elevator for what seemed like the fifth time.(A.N. Yes they do have elevators)
"Who knows what could happen
Do what you do
Just keep on laughing
One thing's true
There's always a brand new day
I'm gonna live today like it's my last day"
Suddenly two things came to my attention: The singing was getting louder, and there was an irresistible and unmistakable smell that had drifted to where I was.
"Find yourself
'Cause I can't find you
Be yourself
Who are you?
Find yourself
'Cause I can't find you
Be yourself
Who are you?"
The Kitchen. Why didn't I think of it before? Changing directions, I headed for entryway. Sprinting down the grand staircase, two at a time, I made my way towards the only room in the whole house whose location I had memorized. Both sound and smell became easier to find.
When I arrived I was meet with the sight of the biggest and most delicious looking Breakfast I had ever seen. Mountains of eggs, piles of pancakes, tons of toasts (plain and french), and many other items were throughout the room, placed wherever there was, no had been, room. The only space which was not food-ridden was the stone island in the center of the room. I watched my sister put the finishing touches on some pastries, while belting out the final verse of the song.
"So you go and make it happen
Do you best
Just keep on laughing
I'm telling you
There's always a brand new day!"
I decided to make my presence known, and began to clap. "That was great. You have an amazing voice."
"I...I didn't realize that you were here. Did I wake you up?" asked Will, blushing from the complement. She motioned for me to sit.
"It's alright, I don't mind. Truthfully, I'd rather wake up to you singing than my annoying alarm clock," I joked from atop a stool, " What's with all the food...um.. what should I call you?"
"Will will do just fine," she said in monotone voice, then Will smiled and added, "but you may call me 'sis' if you like." Having said that, she handed me a plate, and the two of us immediately began to load, what seemed to be two of the few none-delicate pieces of china with food.
Settling together at the island, I repeated my earlier question. "Seriously, why did you make all this food by yourself ? I would have helped if you had asked me." She just smiled and began to pour syrup on her pancakes.
Then after drowning flapjacks in what must have been a quarter of a bottle of sugary goo, she stated bluntly. " One: this is my apology for my behavior over the last week, two: I couldn't wake you if I tried (trust me, I speak from experience), and three: I didn't make this by myself, I had help.I just can't tell you who." She started on her meal, leaving me with the same option.
We ate in silence, but when we were done, Will broke the ice.
"Let's go into town today."
"Huh?"
"I said let's go into town, I've never been in a city like Tokyo before. I thought we could spend sometime together while you show me around. It's been a week, and we haven't even spent two hours with each other. Besides, when I left, it was sort of last minute...and now I don't have any clean clothes. You feel up to shopping?" The last bit she rushed out, embarrassed.
"You don't have any clothes!" I stared at her, slack jawed.
"..."
"Never mind that," I said grinning as I got up, " I'd love to go shopping sis. When it comes to clothes, you've come to the right place. I'll just call the girls and w-"
"No!"
Staring at her feet, she explained, "I thought that this could be something that we did. Just the two of us. Ya know, bonding as sisters."
I nodded, placing the phone back on the hook. "Sure thing Will. Do you wanna change-oops!"
"No clean clothes, remember?" she teased, a smirk plastered on her pale face.
"He..he...forgot."
"Well..you can just forget that you forgot that I forgot that I forgot to pack some clothes." chirped Will, with a surprisingly strait face.
We tried to hold it in, but then gave up and started to laugh so hard, both of us began to cry.
To Be Continued...
MewWitch: There you go, another chapter.
Will: It was pretty short though.
MewWitch: Sorry 'bout that. This chapter was basically a filler. I made it to explain a little of what's been going on. I know it's not much, I needed something to go in-between the first chapter, and the chapter when things begin to happen.
Crux: Why wasn't I in this part!
MewWitch: Again sorry. I thought that it would be best if I did chap 2 in Ichigo's P.O.V. I couldn't put you in because she won't find out about you until later. Besides, if you look closely, you would have seen that Will said that someone helped her make Breakfast, but she couldn't tell Ichigo who it was.
Crux: Your saying that I was the one who helped her cook?
MewWitch: Maybe. It might be somebody else, but it's most likely you.
Crux:Okay. Anyways, it's time for Review Work.
Will: For those of you that have not read MewWitch's other story, The Mew Mew Code, Review Work, or R.W., is something that Crux will sometimes assign at the end of a chapter. You aren't required to do R.W., but if you do it'll help out the authoress when it comes to certain parts of the story. Other authors have MewWitch's permission to us R.W. on their own stories, some of you will probably find it helpful.
Crux: Enough of that, let's get reviewing!
Review Work
Should MewWitch put Kish in the next chapter? MewWitch is really unsure and would love to have your opinion.
NOTICE: MewWitch is at the moment currently working on a prequel to this story called Enter The Dark which has (hopefully) been published by the time you read this. It'll help to answer some questions you have about Crux and any changes with Will and her personality(her hair for a physical example). ETD will only be a few chapters long so that MewWitch will complete it quicker. The sooner that fanfic is finished the sooner MewWitch will update this one. MewWitch hopes that you won't be mad and understand that she feels it would be best to fully explain the many changes that happen to Will and not give certain things away before they should be known. MewWitch would also like to apologize in case any of you don't understand what she meant above, her reasoning can be confusing to others.
Until Next Time
