here's chapter two... sorry it's so short... anyways! enjoy! read & review, please!

Disclaimer: do i look Japaneese to you? i didn't think so.


Chiyo-chan's POV

"Attention passengers, please fasten your seatbelts. We will be landing at the Tokyo International Airport shortly," the captain said. I fastened my seatbelt, and listened carefully. Yes, there was the muffled barking I had been listening for.

I smiled to myself. Mr. Tadikichi hated loud, and strange, noises. Sadly, the other passengers didn't find it as amusing.

"Somebody shut that ANIMAL up!" an irritable man in business class shouted. I flinched, visibly.

Seeing this, a kind-hearted flight attendant smiled at me. Turning to the man, she said, almost spitting venom at him, "Why don't we shut you up? That dog is probably very lonely and missing his mistress."

Sneering, the man retorted, "Oh sure, stand up for the little brat! Just because she's about nine and traveling alone, everyone's nice to the little girl!" turning to me, he added, "Let me tell you, girly. If you were a few years older, nobody would care. Enjoy your youth, kiddy!" he cackled loudly.

"For you information, Sir, I am in college. And I am most definitely NOT nine. I am twelve," I said, defiantly, almost wishing I could stand up. He looked shocked, and then looked to the fight attendant as if to ask her to back up what he had just said, but she looked at me and started clapping. One by one, everyone on the airplane did the same. I looked around, a bit startled. What did I do?

Miss Kurosawa's POV

"Hey, everyone, we're here!" I exclaimed softly. I didn't want to wake up anyone in the car. Tomo, however, didn't seem to care.

"I wanna be the first person to tell Chiyo-chan about college!" she yelled.

"AGHHHH!" Yukari screeched. So much for not waking anyone up. Now everybody was up, and we'd have to deal with Yukari's complaining.

"Tomo, why not take the time to SHUT UP!" Kagura shouted, startling everyone, including herself. "Sorry!" she squeaked, as Tomo looked at her, dumbfounded. "… I'm gonna shut up, myself," she amended. We just kept staring at her, lost for words.

Kagura often got annoyed with Tomo, but never yelled at her or anything like that. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that Tomo had kept bothering her about 'those nice melons you got there' and Sakaki playing with Maya just behind her, but whatever it was it was major. Kagura just never snapped like that!

Chiyo-chan's POV

As I waited for my friends, I watched Mr. Tadikichi sniffing the floor near a trash can. For a Great Pyrenees, he was a bit small. Then, I caught sight of a familiar head looking above everyone else's heads. I shouted…

Sakaki's POV

"Miss Sakaki! Miss Sakaki, I'm over here!" a high-pitched voice called from far below my eye level. Or so I thought…

"Wow, Chiyo-chan, you're almost as tall as Tomo!" Yomi called out to our short friend. It was true. She was much taller than she was when she had left for America.

"Let's go to karaoke to welcome back Chiyo-chan!" Miss Yukari yelled. I had no doubt as to who had put her up to that, judging by Miss Kurosawa's guilty glances.

"OK!" everyone yelled. I don't know about anyone else, but I was still wondering about Kagura's outburst, though.
