~~Amu's POV~~

Suddenly there was a bright light of gold emanating from Amu. The light lit up the sky and caused Tadase to pause in his rant and glare at her. Amu lunged into the sky with a determined expression on her face.

"Amu-chan" Dia whispered from inside her. "Focus on Kiseki"

"Eh? Kiseki? Why?" Amu asked

"He's fighting this. He's trying to break Tadase's transformation but he's losing hope. Encourage him and he'll be able to stop Tadase."

"Hai!" Amu shouted. She flew behind Tadase and shouted, "Kiseki!" Tadase turned around and smirked at her.

"What are you trying to prove Amu-chan" he said her honorific with a sneer. "He cannot help you." Amu ignored him and shouted,

"Kiseki! Listen to me! You have to keep fighting! You're the only one who can stop Tadase!"

"A-Amu-chan" She heard a small voice whisper.

"Yes! Kiseki I'm here! I'll help! But you have to fight him!"

"Y-Yes" she heard the voice whisper. Tadase stopped mid-sentence and doubled over in pain. His transformation was fading in and out.

"What is this?!" He shouted. "What are you doing to me?"

"Amu I can't hold him off for long!" Kiseki's voice shouted. "Please… help me!"

"Hai!" Amu shouted. A small golden globe appeared in Amu's hands and she pointed it at Tadase. "Starlight Navigation!" She shouted. Stars began shooting out of the globe and flew around Tadase. They held him in place, so he couldn't attack. "Tadase-kun!" Amu shouted. He looked over surprised to hear his old honorific flowing from Amu's mouth.

"Tadase listen! You have to stop this! Look around you! This isn't love! It's destruction! If you give into this than you're no better than Easter!" Tadase looked around at the girls he had put spells on. They were still attacking Ikuto, eyes glowing red and mouths twisted into evil smiles.

"No…" Tadase whispered. "I didn't want it to be like that. I-I just want someone to love me. I thought you would Hinamori Amu," he said looking at her with dull eyes. "I-I thought Ikuto-nii loved me… but you both abandoned me." Amu looked down to see that the girls had frozen and Ikuto was staring up at Tadase with… sorrow. He jumped into the sky and flew next to Amu.

"Tadase…" He began. "I didn't abandon you, or my sister. I left because I knew Easter was looking for me. I saw some of their goons roaming your neighborhood. I knew that if I stayed then they would hurt you and your family. I left to protect you and Utau." Amu looked over at Ikuto and smiled warmly. She then turned her attention back to Tadase.

"Tadase… you're my best friend. I'm sorry I can't give you more than that… but I just can't. Someday you'll find a girl who will love you romantically but it's not me. I'm sorry."

"I… know" Tadase said. He looked up at Amu and Ikuto and smiled. "I know." An X egg aura surrounded Tadase and his eyes went blank.

"Negative heart, lock on!" Amu shouted pointing at Tadase. "Open heart!" She cupped her hand to shape a heart and golden light flew from her fingertips. It surrounded Tadase and his transformation was broken. Tadase floated gently to the ground and Kiseki appeared beside him. The hearts broke off the girl's foreheads and shattered on the ground. They stumbled around confused and tired. Amu and Ikuto flew to where they landed and broke their transformations as well. Tadase and Kiseki opened their eyes and looked up at their friends.

"Amu!" Kiseki shouted and hugged her. He then realized what he was doing and backed off blushing and stuttering. "I-I mean… uh… thank you servant for aiding me in battle." Amu laughed and grabbed him, pulling him into a tight embrace. Ikuto extended his hand to Tadase, still on the ground, and Tadase took it gratefully.

"A-Amu-chan…" Tadase looked away blushing. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to cause all this. I just-" He broke off as Amu embraced him.

"It's ok Tadase-kun" she said smiling. Tadase hugged her back and then let go.

"I'll be going then" Tadase said turning around.

"Wait!" Amu shouted.

"What?" He asked surprised.

"Do you know who did this to you?" Amu asked.

"What?" Ikuto and Tadase said together.

"Well… I think someone is doing this to people. It's not just happening randomly. It seems to be mostly… my friends." Amu said looking at the boys. Tadase nodded.

"Yes… that is true. But no, I don't remember anything before I transformed. Except… a necklace, with a ruby pendant." Tadase said. "Sorry I can't help more."

"It's fine Tadase" Amu said with a thoughtful expression on her face. Tadase walked off and Ikuto looked at Amu quizzically.

"What is it Amu?" Ikuto asked.

"That necklace Tadase mentioned. It feels like… I know it. But I can't remember how."

"It will come to you in time" Ikuto said.

"Yea… hopefully." Amu then took Ikuto's hand in hers and smiled. "I'm proud of you" she said.

"What? Why?" he asked surprised.

"For what you said to Tadase. For admitting your feelings." Amu said giving him a quick peck on the lips. He stood shocked for a moment then blushed slightly.

"It was nothing."

"Why, Tsukiyomi Ikuto!" Amu exclaimed in a fake falsetto voice. "I do believe that is a blush on your cheeks, is it not?" Ikuto pushed her playfully and mumbled,

"Shut up" He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close to him. She gasped slightly and a blush appeared on her face as Ikuto began kissing her neck.

"Hmm and you were teasing me about blushing" he teased. Amu gave out a little,

"Humph" before turning around and kissing him fully on the lips. After a few seconds they pulled apart and began walking hand in hand through the park. Suddenly a bright light appeared in front of them. Amu shielded her eyes and tried to see what the cause of the light was. The light receded and a small white egg floated in front of her.

"The embryo nya~" Yoru said in amazement. The charas gazed at it in wonder.

"The embryo?" Amu whispered. Suddenly she heard a small voice in her mind,

"Well done chosen ones" The light disappeared and so did the embryo.

"D-Did you hear that?" Ikuto asked completely shocked.

"You mean, it spoke to you too?" Amu asked. Ikuto only nodded. "What did it mean by chosen ones?"

"I don't know Amu" Ikuto said shaking his head. They began walking again, neither of them noticing that the Humpty Lock and Dumpty Key were glowing slightly brighter than usual.

~~Lulu's POV~~

"That was a close one" Nana whispered as Amu and Ikuto passed where Lulu was hiding. Lulu was furious.

"Damn it!" she screeched. "Hinamori Amu always ruins everything!"

"Lulu… you need to be more careful." Nana whispered almost hoping Lulu wouldn't hear.

"What?!" Lulu shouted. Nana looked at her seriously and said,

"Hinamori Amu is catching on. Try to stay away from her friends for a while eh Lulu? It seems kind of… stalker-ish."

"You-" Lulu cut off as a bright light appeared in front of Amu and Ikuto.

"The embryo" Nana whispered in awe. Suddenly it disappeared leaving behind a baffled Amu and Ikuto.

"It got away…" Lulu mumbled. She began walking in the opposite direction of the couple, deep in thought.

~~Unknown POV~~

"Damn" a man whispered from behind a tree. The embryo had disappeared before he could take any action. He eyed the pink and blue haired couple in front of him and smiled evilly. "Well Tsukiyomi Ikuto, it seems you've been hiding something from me." He whispered. "We'll just have to have a talk with that little girlfriend of yours who is so buddy-buddy with the embryo." The man straightened his suit and walked off dialing his cell phone. "Boss" he said in his deep voice. "I have a new idea"
