Hearts Alike
--Prologue--
-:Remembering Realization:-

It was as if the world was hers...

As if she could do anything...
Get anything she wanted...

Also... The warmth...
'The warmth... So... So warm...'
Her entire body felt warm...
Her lips in particular...

...
...Lips...?

Where did that come from?

Sia slowly opened her eyes, if only to answer her own question.

She was greeted with a sight that nearly made her face explode due to all the blood rushing to her cheeks.

On top of the her, an orange-haired girl with blue eyes, and a face just as red as--if not more than--Sia's, was slowly lifting herself off from the red-haired daughter of the Lord of the Gods.

Sia's brain cooled down, and began to assess the event which had just occurred...

Sia had just finished applying some vibrant pink lipstick to Kaede's lips, and crawled behind the orange-haired girl, looking over her shoulder and into the mirror they were sitting in front of. For a moment, Sia admired her work, then said to the other girl, "You look beautiful!"

Then Sia's other personality, that of her twin sister who also resided in the red-haired girl's body, came out and moved to look over Kaede's other shoulder. Giving her friend the "there-is-no-way-that-this-can-possibly-fail-,-so-I'm-very-confident-in-my-work" face, which consisted of an evil-looking grin and eyes that dared ANYONE to contradict her judgement, she commented on how no man could possibly resist Kaede.

"This is a sure-fire way to capture ANY man's heart!"

Kaede looked to the direction that she heard the voice of her goddess-friend, though that did not actually mean she could see Sia, due to the fact that Kaede was in front of her.

"It's just lipstick," she said doubtfully.

Sia, now the original Sia once more, looked shocked, as if she couldn't believe that lipstick alone wouldn't be enough! "Offended" now written all over the red-haired girl's face, she pulled her companion up by the arm, tugging backwards.

"I'll show you how effective it is! We're going to father! We'll see how he--ACK!" Apparently, Sia wasn't looking where she was going, and had simply concentrated on tugging Kaede out of the room by the girl's arm. She tripped backwards on her circular table, pulling Kaede down with her.

Sia's eyes widened slightly, in full understanding of what had just transpired. She looked into Kaede's eyes for a moment, quickly glancing at her orange-haired friend's lipstick-painted lips, then back to her eyes once more.

They had just kissed.

Words from Calaway (The author's oxygen-high, really random, insane, male personality): Yeah, I know, it was short, but DAMN. This is the BEST I've ever written fiction in my life. Pat me on the back before you start handing out the flamethrowers, because I think I did really, REALLY well, considering that I'm, well, ME.

Words from Kurito (The hyper, sugar-high, strawberries-for-brains, ALSO insane female personality of the aforementioned author): WHEE! Kuri got it done! Kuri LOVES THIS JOB! Kuri wants some pocky. Kuri thinks that anyone who replies nicely will get a Primula plushie. :D Kuri also thinks that she should lay off the sugar for about a week.

Words from Kurama (The only damn SANE personality the Author's got. A mixture of the above two. Male, polite, well-spoken, mild-tempered, and... Sorry peoples-- RESERVED.): Well, considering that I'm two-thirds insane, high on a mixture of sugar and oxygen, hyper, random, and have strawberries for brains, I do think I did well on this piece. For now, I'm retreating from writing for today.

Tomorrow, I'll write up and bring in another chapter-- if my connection doesn't go prostitutional and whore itself off to the Devil.

------Ja ne! Kurama, signing off.

P.S. Live long, prosper, and stay frosty. You never know when THEY might strike... X--(o.o)--X --Kirby w/ shuriken.
