Ayumi's POV

After my dad mentioned that I had to go to school I run up to my room and Yuki hands me my jacket and oh did I mention that I had a chara to, well yes her name is Yuki but I will tell you about her later. Anyway I put on my jacket and I hop through the window and I go onto the roof. I'm lying there peacefully well technically I just want to go into my character change and yell at the one who's responsible for me going to this stupid school. About five minutes later my twin sister Rumi came up and of all things even though she may be the brains of the family she does not have common sense at all why you ask well because she asks me the most stupid question of all time!

"Are you ok?"

"Hmmmmmmm let me think about that R-U-M-I…*character change* NO! YOU KNOW DARN WELL THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL BUT NOOOOO YOU HAD TO ASK MOM AND DAD TO GO THE THIS STUPID SCHOOL! DID YOU EVER CONSIDER MY FEELINGS OR WERE YOU JUST THINKING FOR YOURSELF I MEAN SERIOUSLY WHO NEEDS SCHOOL! SCHOOL IF FOR THE NERDS LIKE YOU, SO WHY THE HECK DO I NEED TO GO!

"Well, sorry. I'm just trying to get you a good education so that you don't end up a bum on the street and come begging for a place to stay when I'm an owner of my own company and I'm mega rich and you just want to mooch off of me. Honestly you should be grateful."

"We already have tutors that teach us at 12 in the afternoon. I could sleep in! Do you really think I want to wake up at SIX in the morning just to go to freaking school?! Anyways only you and Keiko can go. I'll just bribe the teacher into letting me ditch class."

"We're going to Seiyo Elementary. That will NOT work just to let you know.

There is a moment's pause and just when I think she's going to leave, she tells me the second worst news so far.

"Ayumi we need to go shopping for things cause we are going to school"

"I don't give that crap"

"AYUMI!"

Time skip

We went into the mall which was crowded with many people today which I would expect that because today is Sunday which I rather be in my bed SLEEPING! Keiko and Rumi both went into their own little shopping places to get clothes which is really confusing because the school we are going to has a uniform but you know I really don't care.

"Uhhhhhhhhhh so they leave me oh well I'm just going to ditch them." I run, no drag myself to a nearby bed store. When no one's really looking like they care I flop down on one of the beds and sigh in contentment.

"Miss, I'm going to have to ask you to either get off the merchandise or I will have to call security."

I groan and leave, which is very unusual of me because of my usual tendency to fight back. Whatever. As I'm rubbing my eyes due to my still being restless, I see something, no someone, unbelievable.

My sister. Azure Tsukiyomi.

She hasn't changed that much. Her identical to mine hair, midnight blue, swaying as she walks. If I could get a closer look, I'd probably see her eyes that would reflect the smallest source of light in the darkest room when we we're younger. A smirk plays on her tinted but still pale face. There's something different, a scar running down from her lip to her chin. Where has she been? Her usual trench coat is tied around her waist just like Rumi. In fact, I think that's Rumi copying Azure, wanting to fel close to out missing sister. Aside from her coat is a collared shirt, first button undone and the collar is popped up. A sign of being a total bad ass. Sort of.

And she notices me, strides close to me as she can without contact. I can barely breathe. Azure disappeared three years ago.

"Hi sis, long time no see."

"Azure... where have you been?"

"Somewhere horrible. Don't tell Rumi or our parents. Then again, you won't be able to."

What? "Azure?" Something presses to my neck like a needle and I fall into her arms, conciousness slowly escaping from me.

She's still smirking.

Azure's POV

Hmm. Where should I leave her? It's not like I can take her with me, they would use her like they're using me. Sigh. Ayumi is my sister, but I really have to avoid her. Even still, I have to be careful of running into my family members. That's why I carry around the serum. It can erase the memory of the injected from the past five minutes. Of course it also puts you to sleep, but that's only the bonus. I really want to stay with Ayumi and talk forever, but the bitter world doesn't work that way. Or maybe I'm the bitter one.

My family is in danger if I don't work for them. So I signed the contract. I should never have run away. But maybe it's for the best. Maybe.

"I sensed a chara." Yuu says as she spins around my head. That's different, she usually just mutters to herself. "But she was in hiding." Hmm. We must have both taken after Mom and Dad. I wonder if Rumi has a chara as well. probably, despite my genius sister's don't care attitude, her heart is strong. Yuu sensed it before I ran away. That was when I was in my deep state of darkness and I had no way in hell of an idea what I was doing. I wish I could be back with Mom and Dad. It was a mistake not listening to them.

Agh! Shuddup! I tell myself and groan in frustration. Azure, you're protecting your family. Mom, Dad, Ayumi, and Rumi are safe. So stop questioning your choices! This is what's right! You're a disgrace to your parents anyway. Rebellious tears begin to well in my eyes but I quickly blink them away. I'm not supposed to feel sorry for myself. Worry and sadness are saved for my family. Feeling has a huge reserved sign on it. Ever since him.

My thoughts are cut off by Yuu who always seems to choose the worst moments to but in. "Azure, quit ridiculing yourself. That's MY job."

"You know," I glare at her and she shrinks back. "You may be a heart's egg, but sometimes you can be really heartless."

"Beep Beep Beep." Great, must be another call from them.

I look at the phone's contact and glower at it. I'm right.

"What do you want?"

"Azure," The horrible voice I hear quite often purrs on the other side. "You should regard me with such disrespect. I am your boss, in a regular world I would fire you."

"Just cut to it. Anyways, you can't afford to lose me."

"Really? Because as I remember, there are now many SPECIAL people in the world today so I can easily dispose of you and your precious family." There's that threat again, the very one that keeps me awake at night.

"Fine! What do you want?!"

"X eggs my darling. I need 12 approximately. Make it quick, the computers are running low." Energy. That's what they're used for. It disgusts me.

"Whatever. Now good riddance."

I press the end button so hard, I'm sure my phone is in danger of breaking.

"Yuu, it's time to round up some X eggs. Devil's order straight from hell."

Did I mention I hate my job?

Yorumi's POV

Keiko drags me into some random fashion store which I have no interest in at all. I mean, we're here for school supplies, not clothes! For goodness sake we have UNIFORMS! But I don't want my ears killed, so I follow her in, NOTE: RELUCTANTLY!

Then she goes on a haywire style frenzy. I'm actually lucky this store is pretty small, or else I might get trapped in a weird clothing section... We eventually end up in the dress section and Keiko debates on which dress to get.

"Hmm. I like this one." She holds up a light blue dress that in my opinion has thirty too many spikes on the shoulders, meaning there are thirty spikes on the shoulders. Keiko inherited the edgy style from Aunt Utau, along with the obsessive attitude and basically being a brunette version of her mother. "But this one is cuter..." Actually, I wouldn't say cute. The other dress is cotton candy pink, you would think it would be a nice, conservative dress, but noooooooooooooooooooooo. It looks like it came out of a movie set named Barbie in zombie land. That American cartoon girl has always creeped me out. She's too smiley. Anyways, the dress would be cute, if it wasn't mangled at the bottom.

I frown slightly, no extremely and intently at her choices. "Keiko, since you are my cousin and I love you, I'm going to tell you,"

"Mhm?" There's actually hope in Keiko's eyes. Sucker.

"THAT THOSE DRESSES SUCK!" I earn various estranged looks from innocent passerbys but I could care less. Oh no, I'm starting to sound like Ayumi. NOOOOOOOO! Whatever.

Keiko's lip trembles and I suddenly feel kind of guilty, tears begin to well up in her eyes and... "Keiko, I-"

"HAHAHAHAHA! SUCKER! YOU TOTALLY FELL FOR THAT!" Okay, now that definatly over did my own outburst. Now she's getting the weird glances, but that's normal...

I growl at her. Not only am I annoyed, I'm tierd, and sick of Keiko brushing off school. She wanted to go to, didn't she? "Whatever dim wit, now just give me the dresses so I can calculate the balance and tax. You know, since I'm just that much of a genius."

"No!" She pulls the dresses to her chest and looks at the price tags. "Akira! Chara Change!"

Akira floats out of her little pouch in Keiko's bag that's similar to my own. "Hai!"

Thick, dark rimmed glasses appear on my cousin's face and she scrunches her nose up in concentration. Haha, another flaw to add to my Keiko's Imperfections book.

"So, this dress," She holds up the spike one. "Is *insert expensive yen pricing here*. And this one." She holds up the Mangled Barbie one. "Is *insert other expensive yen price.* So therefore I can get both!"

I roll my eyes. "You and I both know you would have gotten it anyways."

"Yep!" Oh great, here comes the bipolar angelicness. It's a surprise that Ayumi has the demonic angel chara and not Keiko.

"Whatever." I take her by the wrist and toss her towards the checkout. "Now hurry up before I claw you."

ten minutes later

Keiko skips towards me, whistling happily. "Yay! I got two new dresses!"

"You're weird, you know that?"

She brushes off my so obvious insult and turns her gae to a table at the front of the store. "Hey, that's cute! Maybe-"

"OH NO YOU DON'T!" I take her by the wrist and drag her out of the store before she starts again.

Keiko Ai's POV

After Rumi and I leave the store, okay, so she dragged me out against my will... We head to Morning Glory (I don't own, plus I don't know if it's a store in Japan...) However, on our way there, we spot a girl around our age with flowing midnight blue hair. Huh, she looks like Ayumi. I tell this to Rumi and point the girl out to her, joking that the sleeping would totally have given it away. However, her eyes widen.

"That is Ayumi, BAKA!" We hurry over to her and shake her awake but she seems groggy.

"What happened? Last thing I remember, we separated." Ayumi rubs the sleep from her eyes and yawns. No difference there.

I grin while chuckling to myself at the comeback I'm about to use. "That's why you use the buddy system!"

"Way mature Keiko." Rumi rolls her eyes and turns back to her sister. "Ayumi, do you really forget?"

She looks blankly at us. "Yeah, it's like the past few minutes are a blur. Weird huh?"

"Noooooooooooooooooo." Our snobbish genius hauls Ayumi up and marches over to Morning Glory. "C'mon, this is the best place for pencils."

*five minutes later*

"Awe! KAWAIIIIIIIIIIII!" I hold up a mechanical sakura patterned pencil in the air like a trophy. The body of the pencil has the sakura cherry blossoms while the top has a rosette at the top and a little jingleing bell. That will annoy Rumi, mwahahahahahaha. And cue the bipolar demonicness.

Rumi sighs and picks up techy or adventure related pencils with planes and stuff on them. "You need to lower your voice. I think they want to kick you out." She gestures to the cashier who actually does look like she's about to snap.

"Oops. hehe."

Ayumi mutters something around the lines of "baka..." grrrrrrrrrrr. but whatever. In fact, not whatever. I think I'll torture them.

"Planes are crashing." I hiss into Rumi's ear. "Everything is gray, neither black or white... just boring." That I whisper into Ayumi's ear.

They both freak. "Never!" Oops, now the cashier looks like an axe murderer.

"Kay, let's go..." We head towards the checkout, only to find the murderous cashier is the only cashier.

When she sees us, she puts on a fake customer smile and holds up her price scanner. "May I help you girls?"

"Yup, now make it snappy." I'm suddenly bored... must be the bipolar thing.

She glares at me while Rumi and Ayumi stifle laughs. "Well, I'm afraid to tell you that you and your friends' items are a bit overpriced, you may have to return some."

"We're very well aware of that, but we have the money, so just charge us. Should you be happy since this store is commission based?" Rumi takes over and folds her arms over her chest. Now... she looks like a brat. A really smart brat...

The cashier with the 'tude charges us while cussing silently to herself. But when she was done ringing everything up her eyes widen and she turns the monitor around to show us smugly. "Will you be able to afford this? Everything is *insert really expensive yen price*"

"Yes." Ayumi yawns. "And we can afford it." She pulls out the money Uncle Ikuto gave us and pushes it across the counter.

Long story short, Tsukiyomis and Souma's 1, Axe murderer cashier 0

Rumi's POV

We're casually walking though the mall, NOT, we're lugging our shopping bags filled with school supplies though the mall. Ayumi seems annoyed, I'm slightly struggling, but Keiko is whining up a storm.

"Why don't we just get a cart!"

Ayumi sighs, no yawns, wow Keiko must be exhausting. "Because this mall doesn't have them."

"Agh! This sucks."

Eventually, I get sick of her and yell, despite my cat ears in her face.

"Keiko, SHUT UP!"

My pilot's jacket begins to slip from my waist and I pull it up, still annoyed.

"You know," Keikos tugs off the jacket with one pull. "You need to get a new jacket, this one is soooooooooooooooo. OLD!"

I snatch it back from her. "Is not, besides, it's authentic."

"What if I get you another one that's exactly the same except newer?"

"Haha, nope. Remember authentic." I get cut of by squeals of what seems to be fangirls, nope, just fans in general.

"IT'S THE GUARDIANS!"


Fairest: haha! done!

Rumi: Sigh, that was short and you left a cliff hanger, everyone is gonna hate you.

Fairest: Wah! *hides in Emo corner*

Mist: She'll be fine in 3...

Rumi: 2...

Mist and Rumi: 1...

Fairest: so what were we talking about? *said in bipolar excitements*

Rumi: I still don't know why you get any veiws...

Ikuto: okay, you guys all go to the same school, plus you're in the same grade. And you have one another's phone numbers. What's wrong with this picture? *Cuts off chat*
