DD: Whooh, thanks people for all the reviews on the first chapter!
Amu: Thank you!
Ikuto: …
DD: I also corrected any misspellings I made aswell.
Ikuto: Moron.
DD: (Ignores) Also I already know Ikuto sounds kinda gay on that last line…
Ikuto: HEY!
Amu: (Giggles)
DD: …but hey, there was a whole lot more lines worse than that in the script I was reading. I doubt we'd like Ikuto talking about flowers and birds, would we?
Amu/Ikuto: …
DD: Exactly!
Amu: Please can you finish this already.
DD: Anyway this is the part you were looking forward to, the auditions!
Amu: I wonder what part I'll get? – Innocent question.
DD/Ikuto: (Sweat drop)
Ikuto: You're so clueless…
DD: Anyway here it is! And merry Christmas by the way! I'll be posting an Amuto one-shot on Christmas Eve.
Amu: DD does not own Shugo Chara or any of it's characters
DD: Begin!

Amu frowned, "Where the hell is it!?"
"Amu-chan?" Suu asked worriedly as Amu's guardian chara's floated in her bedroom watching her.
Amu was currently running around the bedroom throwing clothes all over the floor, finally she fell onto her knees with her eyebrows knitted together, "If I don't have it, I can't learn my lines to audition. I need to learn at least some! My name's down for today…"
"Can't you ask for another?" Miki asked.
Amu ducked her head lower, "But that might mean asking for one infront of loads of people… if they find out I'm auditioning there will be an ugly sight." (Note she's not saying she'll hurt anybody who finds out, she's basically saying she knows everyone will make a fuss of her acting because it's so different from her usually personality)
"Amu…" all the three guardian chara's said backing away slightly at the miserable aura surrounding Amu.
x-X-x
As Amu walked through the school gates she spotted the guardian's waiting for her, smiling she walked over to them.
"Hey guys!"
"Amu!" Rima and Yaya cried squeezing her in a hug for a few seconds.
"Hello Amu-chan!" Nagehiko greeted walking to meet her.
"Hey!" Amu said high-fiving him much to the jealous eyes of Rima.
"Hi Amu." Tadase finally said.
"H-Hey…" Amu said blushing.
Amu smiled as they all began talking; she had the perfect friends…
"Oh Amu, did you recite any lines for the play?" Yaya suddenly asked.
…
Well most of the time.
"Huh, you're rehearsing for the play?" Nagehiko asked.
Amu nodded, trying to hide her embarrassment, "Y-yeah…"
"Me too." Tadase said with a smile making Amu blush further.
"I'm auditioning aswell then if Amu is." Rima said tugging on Amu's sleeve.
"I'll give it a try." Nagehiko added.
"Me too! Yaya too!"
Amu sighed… somehow they were all auditioning now.
But… sparing a glance over to Tadase Amu began thinking; Tadase was easily like a prince so he would get Prince Charming most likely. If she got Cinderella…
She turned red just at the thought of them kissing.
"Come on Amu-chi!"
"O-Okay." Amu cried running up to catch her friend's who had walked ahead whilst she had been daydreaming.

Later that day Ikuto sat in a tree within Seiyo's perimeter, in his hand he held the script he had been reading. At first he had wondered how he would be able to audition if he was from a different school… wearing Seiyo's boy's uniform in disguise?
Even so… it turned out that anybody between the ages 12-16 could audition, however it would be mostly students from Seiyo auditioning due to other schools not hearing about it.
Checking his watch he found it to be four, perfect, the auditions would be starting now. He had spotted Amu still in the Guardian's Garden so she would be there for another half an hour before she had a chance to go audition…
In case you're wondering, Ikuto didn't wish for Amu to know about him just yet. He was the type for surprises.
Jumping down from the tree he walked straight into the mostly empty school and wandered the corridors, turning a corner he found a small queue leading to a room where people were auditioning.
Frowning he leaned against a wall with his arms crossed, although he wasn't keen on this idea if it meant getting a reaction from Amu then it was worth it.
But first… he'd have to get the roll.
Sighing he closed his eyes to block out the bickering coming from the people around him, no doubt they were wondering why an older kid was here.
Annoying…
After about twenty minutes of queuing it was finally his turn, walking through the doors he went into the classroom and stood at the front with a table with three teachers sat at it before him. They were the judges.
The middle being Nikaidou…
"Name?" Nikaidou said not yet seeing him due to him peering at some sheets on his desk.
Ikuto grinned, "Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
At this Nikaidou's head shot up and his eye widened, "I-Ikuto?"
Ikuto smiled, "Yo!"
"A person from another school…"
"How old is he?"
Ikuto ignored the whispered being passed around the class from the students sat around, the pupils in the class were the one's who would be doing the lighting and such, Ikuto sighed, "Can we move this thing along and let me audition already?"
"Y-yes, of course. Um… on you go." Nikaidou said, obviously surprised.
Ikuto let out a deep breathe and closed his eyes, as much as he hated doing this he knew he had to. Remembering the lines he had memorised he straightened up his body and allowed himself to become his character.
When he opened his eyes once more, the lines flowed from his mouth…
"Am I dreaming? For I must be, I have never seen such beauty before."
As he spoke he took a step forward allowing the words to go forward, he had to admit this was pretty out of his character and very humiliating… but he refused to show that.
When he finished speaking he immediately returned to his normal self and stared at the three teachers with an unnerving stare. If one person even thought of laughing he'd strangle them, the one person who he was staring at the most was Nikaidou.
"T-that's it?" Nikaidou asked.
Ikuto nodded, "You expected more?"
He was definitely not reciting more lines…
"N-no of course not. V-very good, you may go Ikuto." Nikaidou said.
Ikuto nodded and with that said strided out of the classroom, at least it was over. With that he walked down the halls only to meet a pink-haired someone. (You know who…)

Amu was glad when the guardian meeting finally finished after school; it meant she could get the auditions over with.
As all the guardians walked out Amu walked besides Yaya, "Thanks by the way for giving me another script, I really don't know where that other one got too." She said.
"It's okay. Yaya loses things all the time!" Yaya cried.
Amu sweatdropped, "Why do you say that like it's a good thing?"
"What's Amu auditioning for?" Kukai said.
Amu glanced at him, "Why are you here again?"
Kukai grinned with his hands held behind his head, "To audition obviously!"
Amu sighed, "I dunno who to audition as… their all not my character."
As they turned a corner in the corridor Amu's eyes widened, "I-Ikuto!" she cried with disbelief.
Ikuto who stood there seemed surprised at first but he quickly masked it with a grin, "Hey!"
"What are you doing here thieving cat!?" Tadase yelled.
"Just came to check up on my Amu." Ikuto said standing besides Amu and wrapping an arm around her.
"E-eh!?" Amu said blushing a furious scarlet.
"Get your hands off her!" Tadase yelled chara-changing with Kiseki and pointing his golden staff at Ikuto.
"Relax." Ikuto said removing his arm from Amu, "I only came to stop by for a second, I have places to be. See ya kiddy king!" he said walking past them, before he turned the corner he glanced towards Amu and with a smirk said, "Bye Amu.."
Amu blushed and as Ikuto disappeared she quickly said, "Well let's go audition!"
x-X-x
Meanwhile at the school gates Utau stood, as Ikuto walked out she ran up to him, "What were you doing in there Ikuto?" she asked.
Ikuto grinned down at her, "Auditoning."
Confusion swept Utau's face as Ikuto passed by and walked on, "Wait Iku—" Utau cut off when she turned around to see him not there, standing for a second she glanced back at the school, "Auditioned huh?"
Smiling she began walking towards the school.

DD: Another chapter finished!
