Sorry for the delay but I was actually pretty busy over the past weekend. And to make up I typed this chapter in 2 hours. Plus there is a surprise aiting for all you viewers at the end of the story.

"Now let's start". Suzumi said as she sat down to eat with the others.

"So Tasuku what brings you here?" Hanako asked Tasuku anxiously. "Well… it actually a pretty long story…." Tasuku replied. "Hey Mom pass me the last remaining octopus dumplings". Gao said quickly as he saw Tasuku looking at the octopus dumplings willing to take the remaining. "Of course you can sweetie but at least ask everyone if they want some-" "No one else wants that's why they were remaining…" Gao said cutting off Suzumi.

"Goodnight everyone.. I have finished my food and I'm going to sleep." Hanae said as she stood up from the table. "I'm going too… goodnight." Hanako said as she also stood from the table.

"Goodnight" Suzumi and Tasuku said to them. *RINNGGG* the doorbell rang. "who can be at a time like this?" Suzumi said as she left the kitchen to check. Gao and Takashi were talking about something in whispers. "Come on Dad have you finished eating cause I am going. I don't want to eat with him." "Yes I'm also not eating let's go." Gao and Takashi exclaimed. "But I-" "Knew you would do so now sit down and finish all your food. And Gao I have your pudding ready too". Suzumi said cutting of Tasuku and not letting Gao and Takashi get their owns ways.

"Okay" Gao and Takashi exclaimed in a very grunting tone. Tasuku looked back at Suzumi with a very worried expression. Suzumi smiled back instead.

After a while

"Gao, here's your pud- ahh." Suzumi suddenly fell down with her eyes were closed. "MOM, SUZUMI, MRS MIKADO". Gao, Takashi and Tasuku exclaimed in horror as they stood up from their seats and going down to pick her up. "Suzumi! Suzumi! Are you okay?" Takashi asked worriedly.

"Yes. I'm okay. I think I only need a little sleep." Suzumi said trying to stand up again. Nobody noticed except Tasuku that Suzumi could not stand up straight after falling so he helped her stand up and get to her room. "Thanks a lot Tasuku dear... you're a really nice child. Your mother would be really proud of yo- I'm so sorry I really didn't mean that... I forget that Hitomiko was…"Suzumi suddenly stopped. "Wait a minute how did you-" "Did you finish your food if you have than you can go sleep. You must be really tired." Suzumi said hurriedly cutting off Tasuku before he said anything else. "Yes I have finished my food. Well.. hope you get better. Goodnight."Tasuku said ,walking out of the room in the process. "Tasuku dear please close the door.*sigh* that was a close call. But is he really?".

Downstairs

"Come on Gao , let's go" "Yes Dad we also have to ask Hanako about it!" Gao and Takashi were chatting when Tasuku came. "Hey prodigy go and sleep on the sofa now get out." Takashi rudely said to Tasuku. " O…Okay Mr. Mikado."

"Come on Dad!". "Oh yes I totally forgot about THAT". Takashi smile and went with Gao.

In Hanako's room

"Hanako if you don't do as we say then you know what will happen... the Mighty Sun Fighter will kick your butt..." Gao said to Hanako in a very scary and serious tone. "Yes I will do it *sigh* but why do you want to do it.. Auh! Okay okay I'll do it."Hanako said as she was being forced to and it was true.

Downstairs

"Looks like everyone is asleep and I really have to sleep on the couch *sigh* at least I don't get to sleep on footsteps... I should be thinking this as a miracle." Tasuku said to himself. He laid down on the couch to sleep and within half an hour he was asleep even though it was very uncomfortable for him.

Late that night

"I don't think a lot of time has passed… hmmmm… oh my It's 1!... I think I should go and check on the others if they are alright…" Suzumi exclaimed as they walked out the door. She opened Gao's room to check on him, he was okay. Next she looked in Hanako's room and she was asleep too. "looks like Takashi is still working…. Or maybe he fell asleep while working…. Oh my! What a klutz. Mom is okay too and now for Tasuku…." Suzumi kept saying this as she went to check everyone.

"Where did he sleep? I asked Takashi to give him the guest room but he is working there and Tasuku mu- Auh? Why is he sleeping on the couch? It must be Takashi's fault…. Tasuku dear wake up… please you can go and sleep in my room."Suzumi said this as she put her hand on Tasuku's back to wake him up but he wasn't waking as he was in deep sleep. "Oh my! But I can't let him keep sleeping on the couch and this couch is terribly uncomfortable when it comes to sleeping on it.. he must have a trophy for sleeping on this couch. Guess I have nothing else to do than carry him upstairs." Suzumi exclaimed with a sigh

. She wrapped her arm around Tasuku's waist and put his arm on her neck, then she took her upstairs to her room. " Looks like Hanako was right, you really are heavy. *sigh and smile*" Suzumi said as she put a blanket over Tasuku. "I should also get back to sleep…."

Knock knock. "Who's there?" Hanako demanded in a very sleepy and spooky voice. "Agg. Keep quiet Hanako or Mom would found out. It's me Gao! I brought the secret plan printouts now open the door". Gao in a very rude way. "Auh! *sigh* okay but I think it's cruel and you shouldn't do such things." Hanako said sadly. "Keep quiet Hana or should I call dad… there you go here this is your share of the plan... or to be accurate your part of the plan that you have to OBEY!" Gao said almost tripping Hanako over as he came closer to her trying to say the last word more clear to her.

"Have you given the paper to her?". Takashi asked Gao as soon as he came out the door. "Huh? Oh! Hmm.. I have given it to her now let's see what will happen; the only thing left for us to do is the part of our share." Gao replied. "you're right but now we need to see the results tomorrow and onwards… where is that no good for so called prodigy?"Takashi exclaimed. "Auh well the last time I saw him he was on the couch sleeping and the next time was when Mom took him into his room… Hey wait did you tell that person about our plan?" Gao asked in a rather précis tone. "Well I did bu-" "But I think only this much would not be enough either kick him out or you can change houses….. let him be he and the others won't survive a day without you. Hehehehe*evil laugh*." An evil voice cut off Takashi and it was the same voice that was heard at the buddypolice headquarters.

"Y...Yes! We will surely get rid of that pest and not by a single attack, it would be one by one and more accurately the thing you call TORTURE." Gao and Takashi replied. "Good! That's just what I want, I'll get rid of that little prodigy pest. He will be the one in pain and would torture himself with the hatred and depression of his AGAIN…. Like before. Hehehe*evil laugh*". The voice said with hatred in his words. "I get the whole part of the plan but again? Do you know something very painful of his?" Takashi asked. "Of course I do…. Look at this then you would understand… this paper is all yours now… I mean for the new ideas for the T plan…!" "T plan?"Gao asked confusedly. "Torture.. I need to go.. bye bye* evil laugh*." The voice said.

In the morning

"Auh! was that all a dream… Huh? Where am I ? Mikado style Aikijujitsu? Wait a minute Mikado? Means I'm in Gao's house and the things that happened last night were not a dream. Well whatever it was I hope it's all over by now." Tasuku thought as he sat up in the bed. "Hey wait a minute' wasn't I sleeping on a couch last night!? Who brought me here?"Tasuku said out loudly.

"I did dear! But I'm surprised how come you have slept on that uncomfortable couch?"

Tasuku looked up and saw Suzumi ready to go downstairs to make breakfast. "Mrs. Mikado!? Was all that happened yesterday all a dream, even if it wasn't did the others are the others back to their senses by now?" Tasuku asked Suzumi. " Well I don't know dear I was going downstairs if you want to see if it's true then come down in 10 minutes with your face washed and dress changed then I'll drop you off at your school." Suzumi replied kindly to Tasuku who was still in bed wondering about yesterday.

"Auh? Yes, as you say but i-" "Keep Queit"
