Cross Alliance—Mission One—Rosa "Double Delight", Rainbow Hybrid Tea Rose

Operation: Meeting

"Onchou-chan!" Kekka cried out, breathless. Onchou cocked her head slightly to face Kekka, her fraternal twin. "What is it?" she called back, stopping in her tracks. Kekka finally caught up to her sister, panting. "Geez, can't you wake me up in the mornings too?" she whined. Onchou turned on her heels and began to walk away. Kekka rolled her eyes and thought, She can be so dramatic.

Onchou was gorgeous; her orange hair, in their usual pigtails, and matching eyes were truly stunning. Kekka was beautiful as well, with long silver hair in it's usual French braid, and her matching sharp, silver eyes. Both were wearing the mandatory Omonaru high uniform—a white monogram bow tie pleated blouse and a plaid button mini skirt. Kekka added her own style to the uniform with her black choker, black, stitched leather gloves, tweed beret, and 'Orla' O-ring pumps. Onchou, on the other hand, wore a golden blazer over her blouse, cap-toe high heeled oxfords, and a cascading faux pearl necklace.

They lived up to be fraternal twins, with their oh-so different personalities. Onchou was calm yet theatrical. Kekka was tough, yet quiet. Onchou was a straight A student, while Kekka proudly obtained the worst grades in their school history. Onchou was brimming with positive energy, while Kekka was brimming with negative energy. They were both the physical images of Ying and Yang.

"Ready?" Onchou asked her twin. "Yeah, yeah," Kekka muttered in reply, and both entered the school's gates.

Hinamori Amu sighed. She had had a strange dream that kept haunting her throughout the day. Ikuto, her 'soul mate' woke up from his small nap and peeked at Amu. "What's up?" he asked her. "Nothing much," she replied. Ikuto raised his eyebrows. "You've been sighing like that all day, you keep looking like you just saw a ghost…need I go on?" Amu glared at him, but her brief moment of annoyance faded. She gently stroked the Humpty Lock that sat oh her chest. Closing her eyes, she remembered the dream.

~ "Amu-chan!" a voice had called. "Go away, I want to sleep," she had muttered in reply. But, instead of being undisturbed, Amu heard a flute being played, that inevitably woke her up. In front of Amu was a Shugo Chara, one with silver hair and eyes, wearing a goth Lolita dress. She was wearing a top hat that had a silver cross accessory on it. "Wh-who are you?" Amu stuttered. The chara did not answer. Instead, she said, "You shall see us again soon."

"What?" "I'll finally get to meet you, Amu-chan!" the chara whispered jubilantly. Suddenly, the same flute began to play again. The chara's head snapped up at the sound. "Sorry, Amu-chan, but I'll see you later," she whispered to Amu. All Amu could do was stare after her.~

Amu opened her eyes. Why do I get the feeling that dream had something to do with them?

Onchou and Kekka sprinted to the observatory. The double doors flew open as the two panting girls entered their 'second home'. "You guys are late again…what a shocker," a male voice said. "Oh, shut up, Shiriasu-senpai!" Kekka snapped. Out from the shadows came a young man with olive green hair and glasses. "Nice to see you too, Kekka-san," he replied flatly.

"Give them a break, Shiriasu!" A girl with navy blue hair spoke up. "I agree with Souzouteki-chan!" A boy with royal blue hair commented, stepping up besides Souzouteki. "Th-thank you, Koumyou-kun," Souzouteki gushed quietly. Koumyo only smirked. Onchou's expression turned from exhausted to infuriated. She slid her way in between both of them, and made a motion as if to shoo Souzouteki away. "Would you stop being all rabu-rabu with MY Koumyou?" she snarled. "Your Koumyo?" Souzouteki growled. "Did I stutter?" Onchou spat.

"People, please!" a new voice cried. Immediately, Onchou and Souzouteki shut up. "Thank you, Mitsukai," Kekka breathed. "Would you shut the hell up?!" a girl with chin length, dark hair shouted, and kicked Mitsukai. "Oh boy…" Kekka sighed. "Ijin-san, you shouldn't hurt you own sister-desu," another girl said. "I thought it was funny, Karen," Warai, the girl next to Karen, giggled. "You think everything is funny," Youji, agirl with copper pigtails, muttered.

"You children are acting so immature," Miyabita said. "I can't believe I'm saying it, but I agree with my sister," Odori interjected. Kansei and Tawamure ignored everyone and just talked about the upcoming basketball game that night.

"Everyone! This is not a child's game! We don't come here to talk casually!!" a voice boomed. Everyone looked up, only to see Kiza, with his light purple hair and snobby blue eyes. Almost instantly, everyone began to talk again. Kekka groaned and took out her silver flute. She began to play a gentle tune. Gradually, the room became hushed again.

Once Kekka saw everyone had quieted down, she stopped. "Thank you, Kekka," Onchou said to her sister quietly. Kekka nodded, and began to speak. "Alright everyone. We've all gathered here for a reason that concerns us all. From this day, we shall all address each other as we once knew each other. Let the Cross Alliance victor in their second chance of knowing what this world is like!"
