"M-Majoren..." a 7-year-old Yuki started, clutching her poron. "I-I'm not so sure this will work..."
"It's alright Yuki," a majogaeru comforted, hopping in front of the beginner witch apprentice, one with a little bit of blue hair and a purple witch brooch in the shape of a simple pair of butterfly wings. "I know you have some skill, so you'll do just fine,"
Yuki smiled brightly. "Alright then!"
"Pururunu Pikapikan Chanchii! Let's make Majoren flyy!"
Majoren blinked twice as she was lifted up by Yuki's magic, yelping. The black witch looked happy but then panicked when her tutor got too high for either of their liking.
"M-Majoren! Uh... Uh..."
She lifted her poron once again.
"Quick! Pururunu Pikapikan Chanchii! Get Majoren down!"
The little majogaeru's spell wore off, and she dropped to the floor, Yuki quickly catching her.
"M-Majoren..." Yuki stammered, out of breath. "Are you alright?" Majoren nodded, sighing of relief.
"You're stronger than I expected.."
"Is that a bad thing?" the black witch apprentice asked, worried.
Her tutor shook her head.
"No, in fact it's a good thing. You have real potential."
Yuki smiled brightly.
"I'm so happy! Arigatou, Majoren!"

Hello again! I'm surprised you made it this far... WAY TO GO!! We learn about the mysterious boys from the previous part, and what they're here for! Even if it should be a LITTLE obivious...
Disclaimer: Ojamajo Doremi. Not mine. Yuki-chan-tachi. MINE.

Ojamajo Doremi Tomo-DACHI Part I
Fated Remeetings! Part III
New Friends and Allies!
"Oh Saiki-kun... How I love thee..."
Yuki sighed with pleasure as she tossed her "Saiki-kun" doll up in the air, catching it and cuddling it. "Saiki-kun..." she purred. "It must be fate that we are together again!"
Meme sighed at the sight of her crazy owner. "Yuki, you're overreacting."
"No I'm not!" Yuki snapped, blushing. "There's nothing wrong with being in pure, untainted love!"
"Oh really?" Meme floated over to Yuki and showed her a strand of blonde hair, and she turned pale.
"A SPLIT END!!"
The black witch rushed off and started raking a brush through her hair. "Nyaaaa! I've got split-ends, SPLIT-ENDS!! I gotta do something about it! Change my shampoo, brush it out, pluck it!"
"Yuki, it's JUST ONE!!" Meme yelled, getting annoyed.
"But what if Saiki-kun...?!"
Meme's eye twitched, ignoring the urge to slap the hysteric blonde who was her owner. "You would only notice if you looked up close you know... And you've always had split-ends!"
"But I haven't ALWAYS been in love!" Yuki pointed out, waving her finger.
Meme groaned. "Good point, why did you?" Yuki perked up.
Why did I..?
Placing her hands on her cheeks, blushing a light shade of pink, the black witch sighed.
It's weird... One day, I just realized I had fallen in love with him... He made my heart jump rope everytime I saw him, his gentle smile had me in heaven, and just being around Saiki-kun... made me so happy... Of course, it hurts everytime I realize he doesn't return my loving affection, he only sees me as one of his best friends...
She got up, straightening her uniform. "Meme, I'm leaving," Meme perked up.
"E-Eeto.. Have a nice day!" she called to her departing owner.
Yuki didn't even bother to ansewer.
--
"Yuki-chan, tell me!" Kurumi insisted, for what seemed like the thousandth time. "Tell me what he's like!" Yuki's eye twitched.
"I already told you, he's nice and polite, that's all there is to it!"
"But he's different from Akatsuki-kun!" Kurumi pointed out, using facts that Yuki couldn't deny. "There HAS to be a catch!"
Yuki blinked twice. "Why so persistant?" Kurumi lifted an eyebrow.
"This is my first time actually with a REAL school romance... So I'm a little excited."
"Oh," the blonde uttered. "That's understandable."
Kurumi sighed. "Yuki-chan..."
"KURUMI!!" a voice squealed. Soon Kurumi found herself in a bone-crunching embrace by none other than...
"Hana-chan! Get off!"
"But Hana-chan doesn't see Kurumi that much!" Hana protested, still squeezing the life out of the gray witch. "Hana-chan's not in Class 1-A anymore!"
"And that's my fault..." she groaned, trying to push the future queen off her.
Yuki sighed. "Hana-chan! How come it is that you greet Kurumi-chan with a hug, but not me?!"
"Oh!" Hana released Kurumi and gave Yuki a squeeze. "Hana-chan sowwy Yuki!" Yuki simply smiled and returned the hug.
"Don't worry, I'm not mad anymore... Now get going, Doremi-chan might scold you! And Momo-chan's waiting!" Hana nodded and rushed off.
Yuki let out a sigh. "That Hana-chan..."
Hana, who obiviously hadn't heard her new 'mama', kept speeding through the hall, and pushed herself around the corner...
What she didn't know however... was that there were stairs.
CRASH!!
"Itetete..."
Hana's caramel brown eyes fluttered open and gasped in shock when they were met with a pair of deep sea blue ones.
"Oh!"
Immediately getting up off the boy who had cushioned her fall, Hana quickly bowed. "G-Gomen-naisai, Hana-chan.. er... I didn't see you!"
The boy got up, dusting himself off, running a hand through his blackish blue hair. "No worries," he stated, shuffling a hand into the pocket of his school uniform. "Although face-to-face is quite a way to run into a cute girl..." Hana's ears perked up, and she let out a flattered giggle.
"Thank you! Hana-chan, I mean I also think face-to-face is quite a way to run into a nice boy!"
The boy chuckled. "Thank you." Hana smiled brightly and waved.
"Hana... I'll see you later!" she exclaimed before rushing past him, in a better mood than before.
Unknowist to her, a smirk made its way to the boy's lips.
"So that's Makihatayama Hana-chan... The future queen of the Majokai."
--
"So Hazuki-chan..." Akemi started, attempting to smile cheerfully. "What do you think of him?"
"Who?" Hazuki asked, innocently. A blush made its way to Akemi's cheeks.
"Y-You know! That... boy... Erm... Fujio-kun!"
The orange ojamajo perked up, a little confused.
"What about him, Akemi-chan?"
"A-Anou... it's just... he reminds me of you somewhat!" Akemi explained, even blushier than usual. "And he seems reslly nice! I was wondering if there was anything I should know about him so we can become good friends!" The brunette raised an eyebrow.
Is Akemi-chan...?
Akemi then laughed a little. "I know it's silly... I'm a little embarassed to admit that I want to get to know him... But..." she froze, a shiver jumping up her spine.
Hazuki perked up. "Something wrong?"
"I just feel like... someone's watching us.."
True to Akemi's word, a pair of stark gray eyes behind a pair of clear lenses observed every new expression on the crystal-haired girl's face, a smile spreading across his lips.
"How very perceptive... Suzuki Akemi-chan..."
--
"SO Onpu-chan... Tell me about him!"
Onpu stared at the look of determination on Moriko's face, sighing. "Seriously Moriko-chan, why do you want to know?"
"Because he's cute!" she retorted, quite angrily. "Unless he's your boyfriend or something..."
The purple pop idol immediately denied it, and Aiko chuckled. "Hey think about it Onpu-chan, if Moriko-chan hooks up with Tooru-kun, he'll stop bothering you!" Onpu perked up.
Good point... but...
But...
Admittingly, she liked the attention! It's an idol thing... Like Kurumi said earlier about the paparazzi... Right?
"Onpu-chan, you just want him to yourself don't you?" Moriko groaned. "Cause if that's the case, I'll catch him with my own hands!" The purple ojamajo was silent for a few moments.
"... Okay."
Moriko simply grinned in response.
"So from now on, you got yourself a rival!"
Onpu shook her head. "If Tooru-kun likes you, I'll back off..."
"Okay then..." Moriko held up her fists. "Then Tooru-kun will definately be mine!"
As the green witch apprentice laughed, what she didn't know was that someone was watching her every move... A boy with greenish olive-colored hair and sea green eyes.
"Takahashi Moriko-chan..."
He smirked.
"A fine flower she is..."
--
"Dojimi."
"Doremi."
"Dojimi."
"Doremi."
"Dojimi."
"DO-RE-MI!!"
"Dummy Bee?"
"I SAID DOREMI YOU JERK!!"
Kurumi simply shook her head at the simple argument, all Kotake had to do nowadays was call Doremi 'Dojimi', just to get her mad. Maybe it was because he found her cute when she was angry? Or...
"Kotake! Leave Doremi-chan alone!" Yuki exclaimed, slamming her hands on her desk. "She's a fairly respectable girl!"
"A respectable girl, are you sure about that Shinoya?" Kotake asked, raising an eyebrow. Doremi looked offended, and punched her first into her palm, signaling what was comming to the navy-haired jerk.
"Kotake, Kotake, Kotake... kun." Yuki said, waving her finger at every 'Kotake' and tilting her head to the side at 'kun', smiling brightly. "Didn't your mama teach you how to behave like a gentlemen?"
Kotake made a face. "Kun Shinoya?"
"Would you rather me call you Tetsuya?" the black witch asked, sighing.
He snorted. Yuki put her hands on her hips. "Don't you know anything?!" She pointed at him, trying to look more and more like a scolding mother. "Boys who like to tease girls will become... Not loved!"
Both Kotake and Doremi looked shocked at this. Yuki smiled victoriously and pulled her hand back, holding up another finger and winking. "It's no wonder Doremi-chan perfers Aka-chan over you. Even I perfer gentlemen over jerks. If you ever want Doremi-chan to like you, you gotta be nice." The soccer player blinked twice.
"Who's 'Aka-chan'?"
"Akatsuki-kun, of course! I heard all about that little spat with him you had about a year ago!" With that, Kotake flushed. Shinoya heard about that?! He didn't even expect Dojimi to blab about it... Much less Akatsuki himself, if he was as respectable as Doremi had gushed on about. Another thing, how did Shinoya even know him to begin with?
"S-Shinoya, how did you..?!"
"A little birdie told me!" Yuki said, winking. "But that's beside the point. Don't you want Doremi-chan to even consider you over friendship status level? Because I have a feeling that you two will someday become great friends!"
Kotake flustered. "Shinoya..."
"Of course, I could never imagine you two boyfriend and girlfriend..." Yuki rambled on. Doremi opened her open to say something, but decided against it since Yuki was pretty much right. Kotake huffed.
"Shinoya..."
"Kotake, a good friend of mine named Karma sent me, and I ain't going back until he's satisfied!" the black witch stated, matter-of-factly. "Besides don't you like having a cute girl like me in your life?"
Silence. At this, Kotake's eyes scanned Yuki, not caring how obivious he looked. Admittingly, Shinoya was almost as cute as Doremi herself... If she wasn't more annoying than Makihatayama ever was. That and the fact she always rushed to Dojimi's defense like her right-hand man or something...
The black witch noticed the thoughtful look now on the navy-haired boy's face.
"...Kotake? Something wrong?"
Doremi huffed. "Yuki-chan, just... just..." she shook her head. "Kotake, just don't fall for Yuki-chan alright? Don't bug her." Kotake suddenly flustered. Him?! Fall for a girl who constantly harassed him and actually tried to strangle him one time?!
"Doremi, what are you...?!"
"Wow!" Yuki exclaimed. "I didn't know you actually knew what Doremi-chan's name was! I almost never ever hear you call her that! Maybe you aren't such a big jerk after all, Tetsuya-san!"
Tetsuya glared at the blonde for a few minutes before turning his attention back to the girl in cherry red pigtails. "Doremi..."
"Okay, that's enough." Kurumi started, getting up. "Kotake-kun, Yuki-chan, Doremi-chan, Seki-sensei's almost back, and I don't think it would be good for you all to be out of your seats. Especially you Yuki-chan, get going!"
The trio perked up and just obeyed to the child model, without one protest and scrambled back to their seats, and with a few minutes to spare before Seki-sensei, as Kurumi had predicted, walked in.
"Ohayou."
"Ohayou!"
Seki-sensei looked down. "Today we have two new students... Brothers in fact." Yuki perked up.
Brothers?
"Shidoosha, both of you, come in please." Seki directed before two boys walked in, both Doremi and Yuki recognized automatically, gasping in surprise.
"Saiki-kun..." Yuki whispered.
"Akatsuki-kun..." Doremi whispered, just as soft.
The two wizard twins smiled, almost the entire group of girls in the class going heat-eyed at the sight of these two handsome transfers. "Konnichiwa!" Akatsuki greeted, as polite as ever.
"Konnichiwa!" the girls chirped.
"KONNICHIWA SAIKI-KUN!! AKATSUKI-KUN!!"
The two perked a little confused before noticing a certain blonde waving like crazy, a cheerful grin plastered on her face, her eyes closed. Akatsuki just blinked twice, and Saiki looked surprised.
"Oh, Yuki-chan?!"
"Yuki-chan?" Akatsuki wondered, staring at Saiki curiously. "That's... Yuki-chan?"
Doremi got up. "Uh, Akatsuki-kun!"
Akatsuki quickly perked up at the voice, turning to Doremi. "Doremi-chan.." he started, almost surprised.
"Oh, you all know each other?" Seki-sensei asked. They nodded.
"Yes... Actually..."
"Ehhhhh?!"
While Kotake snorted, and Tamaki looked shocked, most of the class was just curious.
"How long did you all know each other?!" Kayoko asked.
"Is this the guy you've been talking about, Shinoya-san?" Rinno asked. Yuki blushed.
"A-Anou..."
"We met Doremi-chan and Yuki-chan at different times," Akatsuki explained. "But both of them we knew for about 3... 4 years I think? Saiki-kun, what was it?" Saiki simply shrugged.
"Something like that..."
"Interesting... But to the rest of the class, would you care to introduce yourselves?" Seki-sensei asked, smiling slightly.
"Hai!"
Akatsuki quickly wrote his name down in fancy, neat kanji writing. "For starters, my name is Shidoosha Akatsuki and I moved here just a few days ago from ahhh, Kyoto... It's just family business actually, which is why Saiki-kun's with me. I hope to get along with all you," he said with a smile and a bow.
Doremi swooned with heart eyes. "That's my Akatsuki-kun, polite and charming as ever.." Kurumi made a "huh" sound.
She's in love alright...
Saiki sighed and erased Akatsuki's name, putting up his own in more fancy, neat kanji. "And mine's Shidoosha Saiki, and same goes for me. But I still have one thing to say..." He held up a finger. "I would perfer it very much if no one mistook me for Akatsuki-kun, and vice versa. And please don't compare either. Just treat us like regular students who aren't related, or look alike. Understood?"
The entire class nodded, quickly, a little confused, and freaked. Even Doremi was flabbergasted.
Yuki on the other hand, was swooning even more so than Doremi was earlier, eyes sparkly and hearts appearing. "Saiki-kun.. How independent... How bold!" Kurumi sweatdropped.
Okay well, Yuki sure was weird.
...But then again, this was SHINOYA YUKI she was talking about... So should it really be a surprise?
"Alright then, since you, Harukaze, and Shinoya are such good friends, how about you sit in the two free seats in front of the two?" Seki-sensei asked with a smile.
"Hai!" they both replied, cheerfully.
Once that was said and done...
"Doremi-chan..." Akatsuki started, taking both of the pink witch's hands. "It's such a relief we're in the same class! I knew I would be transfering to this school, but it's really lucky you're here!"
"Oh... Akatsuki-kun.." Doremi stated, both touched and lovestruck. Saiki sighed, also holding the hands of a certain black witch.
"And Yuki-chan... It's a good thing we're in the same class huh?" Yuki nodded automatically, and sighed happily, blushing with more hearts fluttering around her.
"An extremely super cool nice amazing thing that could only be described as a wonderful miracle.." she said dreamily.
Saiki looked confused. "Uh... I guess..."
"Ah, you guess!" she repeated, even more giddy. "It must be destiny that we're together Saiki-kun!"
"...Okay, then." Saiki couldn't help but state, sweatdropping. Yuki smiled cheerfully, completly oblivious. Kurumi just shrugged. School romance... Go figure.
"...By the way Doremi-chan, what made you want to change your hairstyle?" Akatsuki asked, now a little curious.
"Oh.. You noticed..." Doremi started, eyes glittering like diamonds. "I just thought I should get a change... Do you like it?" She suddenly blushed, a bit nervous.
"I could change it back if you like..."
"No, personally I perfer pigtails.." Akatsuki smiled. "They fit you."
Doremi almost fainted, staring at him in a dazed and dreamy look, like the way a hungry cat would look at catnip. Yeah... or something along those lines.
"Speaking of changes..." Saiki mumbled, eying Yuki with a strange expression. Yuki blushed heavily under his gaze, snapping her hands away to fiddle with her fingers.
"I thought this way would be easier... Um.. Don't you like it, Saiki-kun?"
Ta-thump. Ta-thump.
Please... Don't say it's bad... Saiki-kun...
Ta-thump.
"No, you look..." Saiki blushed a bit, trying to figure out what to say next. "... cute as a blonde." Yuki looked surprised and gulped.
"Ah... Thank you."
"And besides," Kurumi added, rolling her eyes. "Wouldn't it create problems if Yuki-chan walked around looking like me?"
"Exactly!" Saiki agreed, almost surprised. "It wouldn't be smart..." Yuki just grinned.
"I guess so.."
"So you two.." Kurumi started, leaning forward with a far too persuasive smile for either Doremi's or Yuki's liking.
"Mind telling me what you're doing in Misora Junior High?"
--
"Ugh, where's sensei?" Aiko groggily wondered. "The class is drivin' me insane!" Moriko sighed at her friend.
"Come on Ai-chan," she assured her, placing a hand on her hip. "It isn't that bad, so our class is a little.. noisy. I heard we have three transfer students; maybe they'll be really nice!"
Onpu shook her head. "As long as they're not fans of mine... I'll be okay... I wonder where Ikeda-sensei is..." Aiko groaned.
"She's almost as naive as Nishizawa-sensei... And not good at remembering names.."
"She still calls me 'the girl with green pigtails', I mean what is up with that?" Moriko wondered as Onpu nodded.
"And I'm still 'Murasakiko'. Honestly, is Segawa Onpu that hard of a name to memorize? Hard to believe with the fond way Yuki-chan squeals..."
Aiko sighed as well. "Hey, I'm 'the blue Kansai person', and it still sounds weird!"
"But at least she tries..." Onpu murmured, smiling a bit. "She's only a minor, so we can't blame her..." They all nodded, and then sighed.
"But still..."
"Anou saa, Class...?"
"Huh?"
All of Class-D immediately perked at the sight of a young woman with short, navy colored hair and a shy smile, and they all got in their seats.
Ikeda-sensei adjusted her throat.
"Um... Today we have some new students... Ah... Nakamura, Sokuryoku, Kounna... Please come in."
And with that, the new students walked in, one of them being a total stranger to the Ojamajos and the other two...
"TOORU-KUN!!" the green witch exclaimed, happily, her face alit with joy.
Tooru perked up. "Huh, it's Moriko-chan... And Onpu-chan!!"
"Ai-chan, too!" Leon waved. "Hey!" Ikeda-sensei looked quite surprised at this.
"Oh, you're already friends?"
Aiko and Onpu sweatdropped but Moriko replied, "Yes, yes! We're all VERY good friends! Although I met Tooru-kun a few days before, Leon-kun too.. We're still fairly friendly!"
Ikeda smiled at this. "Oh, how nice. In that case, Nakamura, since you're unfamilar with the class, why don't you..."
"On it, Sensei," Nakamura replied, quickly grabbing the chalk and jolting down his name. "The name's Nakamura Naoki, and I'm from the Hokkaido district."
Glancing at Moriko, who was looking lovestruck at the sight of Tooru, he smirked a bit.
"And I'd love to get to know all of you.."
Moriko finally perked up, glancing at him. Eh?
"Very well..." Ikeda-sensei stated, smiling. "Nakamura, please sit in that empty seat beside... Er.. The girl in pigtails."
"Her name's Takahashi Moriko-chan." Tooru corrected, a bit confused while Naoki just slyly grinned. Ikeda-sensei nodded.
"Oh, yes! Kounna, your seat is behind the purple girl... And Sokuryoku's is.. Uh.. in front of the blue Kansai person?"
"The name's SEGAWA ONPU!" Onpu called out annoyed, while Aiko just shook her head.
"And the other's name is Senoo Aiko." Leon sighed, shaking his head. The sensei blushed.
"R-Right! Then, please take your seats you three."
"Sensei, we haven't even introduced ourselves yet."
"Oh yeah! P-Please introduce yourselves then."
Tooru and Leon stared at each other, mumbled something about the 'sensei' being forgetful, and Leon wrote his name down on the board.
"Hello, the name is Sokuryoku Leon and Tooru-kun and I are from the.. Er.. Kyoto district. We moved here only a few days ago, and we'd like to get to know you all." Leon bowed slightly. "Thanks."
Introduction said and done, Leon tossed Tooru the chalk and he also signed his name.
"The name's Kounna Tooru, and the same goes for me. As Leon-kun said, from the Kyoto district and our familes have a business here.. But other than that, good to meet you."
Ikeda-sensei nodded. "Alright, Kounna, Sokuryoku, you can sit down now."
"Hai!"
And with that, they seated.
"Moriko-chan, was it?" Naoki asked, grinning slyly, taking the green witch's hand. "It's a pleasure meeting a flower as lovely as yourself." Moriko's eyes narrowed, and she slapped his hand away.
"Yeah yeah, whatever. Don't you know how rude that is?"
Naoki furrowed his brow. "Whatta ya mean by that?"
Moriko hmphed. "Introduce yourself before making a move! I don't like you!" Naoki looked surprised, but laughed. Moriko looked shocked and offended at this.
"H-Hey!"
"I think I like you even more now.." he responded between chuckles. "Moriko-chan, no one's ever looked me in the eye and said they didn't like me. Anyway, as I said earlier, Nakamura Naoki, as your service." Moriko raised an eyebrow, but smiled.
"Naoki-kun, good to meet you."
He nodded, grinning. Moriko then turned to Tooru. "Tooru-kun! Fate must of decided to be nice and put us in the same class! A true pleasure it is, to see you!" Tooru just nodded, a smile making its way to his face.
"Nice to see you again too, Moriko-chan."
Onpu faked a cough, noticably. "Moriko-chan..." she started, gaining both glances as she waved her finger. "Mm, mm." Moriko's eyes were question marks.
Is Onpu-chan...?
"What's up, Onpu-chan?"
"N-Nothing..." the idol murmured, rubbing her throat, an unsure blush on her face. "I was just wondering... What you're doing here, Tooru-kun.." Tooru grinned.
"I'd love to tell you Onpu-chan..."
"..But that's top secret info." Leon finished. "We just can't tell regular girls about our businesses in the Mahoutsukai." Aiko growled.
"Whatta ya mean 'regular'?!"
"You stopped being apprentices a year ago, right?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. Aiko flustered.
"Well... yeah. But a week ago.. We... became apprentices again."
"Really?"
The two wizards looked at each other, beginning to consider telling them the outline of the story but finally decided.
"It's still top secret. We can't tell."
"Why not?" Moriko asked, sighing. "Aren't we all friends?"
Naoki perked up, a little suspicious. "What are you talking about?"
"Oh, nothing." the green witch responded automatically.
"Hm..." the boy started, something tugging at his lips.
I wonder...
--
In Class 1-C, well...
Akemi shifted under the anything but comforting gaze of a good chunk of the class, mostly guys. Hazuki only sighed.
Poor Akemi-chan...
Murmurs of "she's cute" and "how pretty" filled Akemi's ears as she only sunk in her chair, hoping desperately that the compliments wouldn't turn into insults.
While most people would be flattered, Akemi was only terrified, scared to death at the idea of so many people hating her to the point where she just wanted to crawl under somewhere and disappear. It was days like this where she wished she was like Moriko or the optimistic Yuki she had only recently met.
Or in the very least, she wished Moriko was with her, since she had this uncanny power to silence anyone with a mere cold, disturbing glare, clearly saying "Akemi-chan is MINE, so back off."
Weird way to put it, but... Hey, it worked.
But Moriko-chan wasn't here, so Akemi just layed her head down, hoping that no one in her class was brave enough. Hazuki only sighed. "Akemi-chan..."
"Class..."
The entire class perked up and looked ahead at the new voice. Standing in front was a stern woman with short brown hair and brown eyes behind a set of purple-rimmed glasses.
"Ohayou." she greeted.
"Ohayou, Setsuko-sensei!" the class immediately responded.
Setsuko-sensei seemed to smile at this and observed the clipboard she was holding. "Today class, we will two new students, and I want you to treat them with the upmost respect. No lolly gagging you hear, or else."
"H-Hai..."
Akemi blushed lightly. "I wonder..." she mused.
"...who the new students are." Hazuki finished, silently hoping that the said students would be, in the very least, nice ones.
"Very well then," Setsuko started, glancing at the door. "Kashikoi, Hakuta, please come in." The entire class perked as two boys walked in, and both Akemi AND Hazuki reconized the first one.
"Fu-Fujio-kun!" Akemi gasped, immediately standing up. She blushed heavily, more than the usual blush that painted her cheeks. "Y-You're here... Fujio-kun..."
Hazuki's glasses fogged up as Fujio looked at them, a little surprised. "Hazuki-chan... Akemi-chan..."
"Suzuki, Fujiwara, you two know him?" Setsuko-sensei inquired, a bit suspicious. Fujio quickly nodded.
"Hai, er.. Sensei, I met Hazuki-chan a long time ago, and Akemi-chan.. well... a while ago."
"Oh..." Setsuko-sensei seemed to sigh and glanced at the other new student. "Then Hakuta, it's only fair you introduce yourself first." Hakuta nodded, and Akemi's sapphire eyes perked up.
She gulped at the sight of someone with silvery hair, like her beloved older brother, and dark gray eyes behind a pair of glasses, like that of Hazuki's. But his face seemed so cold, unlike that of her Onii-san's.. or Fujio's warm smile... All it did was make her feel nervous and uncomfortable, contrary to the strange warm bubbly feeling she got around Fujio-kun... What was that feeling anyway?
Hakuta wrote his name on the board and turned to the class. "The name is Hakuta Kazuo, and I come from the Nagasaki district. I'm willing to get along with everyone... And another thing, don't let my appearence fool you. I'm not completly unfeeling." Glancing at Akemi, he formed a slight smile. Akemi perked up, and blushed. What's he looking at me for?
"Kashikoi," Setsuko-sensei stated with a nod. "You can go up now."
"Hai, thank you." Fujio said softly before walking up and putting up his own name in light-written kanji. "Hello. My name is Kashikoi Fujio, and I'm from the... Kyoto district. My family is working in a business that had us sent here, so..." he paused. "Thank you. I hope to become friends with some of you."
Akemi's throat immediately went dry and her heart pounded. "Y-Yes..." she whispered, surprised at her reaction. "We... will definately.. become friends... Fujio...kun.."
"Hakuta, Kashikoi, your seats will be behind Fujiwara and Suzuki over there.." Setsuko-sensei directed. "And you two... Be nice." Hazuki and Akemi both nodded.
"Hai!"
Kazuo smirked as he got seated behind the crystal beauty. "Suzuki... Akemi-chan right?" he asked, holding out a hand for her to shake. "I've heard about you..."
"Oh... really?" Akemi asked softly, already flushed. "Hakuta-san, er... Nice to... meet you!" Kazuo looked a little confused. Okay, he heard the girl was really shy, but not this shy. But he was right on one thing: she was cute. Beyond cute, more like drop-dead gorgeous...
"An extreme pleasure." he stated, taking her hand and gently squeezing it, feeling how delicate, soft, and how perfectly it fit in his. "Akemi-chan..." The crystal witch snatched her hand away, looking at him with big, confused eyes.
"Um... Fujio-kun! Good to see you! Really good, in fact amazing! I'm... I'm glad! Really... really glad..." She looked down with her familar blush. "S-Sorry..." Fujio couldn't help but smile.
"No worries, Akemi-chan. It's real nice to see you too." he ansewered. "And you, Hazuki-chan..." Hazuki sighed, and adjusted her glasses.
"Yes..."
Akemi watched him with glittering eyes. "Hey..." she said in a soft voice. "Fujio-kun... Why are you here anyway?"
"Ah.. I'd love to tell you, but that's top secret info. Sorry."
She blushed darkly. "O-Oh... uh... Interesting..." Hazuki, on the other hand... Her nose twitched.
"What exactly do you mean... Top secret?"

"Momoooooo... Hana-chan's so bored!" Hana whined, sinking in her chair, arms spread out. "Make Hana-chan not bored!"
"I can't possibly do that while the teacher's out, Hana-chan..." then blonde american ansewered with a slight laugh. "You'll have to wait... Hey! I heard there's new students today! Maybe they'll be nice!" Hana's ears perked up.
"Come to think of it... Hana-chan met a nice guy earlier... Maybe he's in our class, Momo!" she exclaimed, excited.
"Now THAT'S the way to go!" Momoko exclaimed in english. "Just think like that! But I wonder what the other one will be like... Oh oh, is it a boy or a girl? I sure hope he... or she's nice... But they could be misunderstood... like Tamaki-san... Ahahaha, who knows?"
"I believe it's a boy, Asuka-san." one girl with cherry-pink hair said with a laugh. "But he's nice, I hear.." Momoko brightened.
"Really, Akari-chan?!"
"Who knows, who knows?" another girl stated, this time with dark green hair in a spiky pony tail and teal colored eyes. "Mou Kamizaki, don't you know how rude it is to lead Asuka on like that?" Kamizaki sighed.
"Y-Yeah.. You're absolutely right, Miyagi-san..." she stated softly. "Sorry about that." Momoko frowned.
"Izumi-chan, what do you know anyway? Akari-chan might be right you know..."
Izumi shook her head. "Ya never know.." Hana huffed, a bit annoyed. Miyagi Izumi... She was a bit like Moriko, or Aiko.. But just a little bit more... rude.
Not like that kind-hearted and gentle Kamizaki Akari-chan...
"Class!"
The entire class freezed and looked up at their teacher, a woman with a creamy blond hair color and dark serious blue eyes. She acknowledged them with a slight smile.
"Good morning."
"Good morning, Yumi-sensei!"
"For our lesson today, we have two new students..." Yumi-sensei was then cut off by an excited voice.
"That would be us!"
"K-Kazuki-kun, not yet!" another one yelped.
Yumi-sensei looked annoyed for a few moments but sighed. "Sasaki! Don't get in trouble on your first day!" she warned. "Either way, you two... Yoshida... Bring Sasaki with you.."
"H-Hai.." the voice known as Yoshida ansewered, exasperated. "C-Come on Kazuki-kun..."
"Akio-kun, Akio-kun! Hai, hai!" the other chirped, cheerfully, to which Yoshida sighed. The two then came in, and Hana gasped.
"Kyaa! Hana-chan was right! Hana-chan was RIGHT!! It's the nice guy!"
The said "nice guy" perked up. "Hana... I mean, the kawaiiko?" Yoshida raised an eyebrow.
Kazuki-kun... met her already?
He quickly shook his head and spoke up.
"Sensei... Can I introduce myself first?"
Momoko perked up, completly interested. Yumi-sensei on the other hand, shrugged. "If you say so, Yoshida." He nodded.
"Y-Yes..." Writing his name on the board he turned to the class, letting Momoko get a good look at him.
Chesnut brown eyes and a blonde hair color, but with a noticable brownish tint to it. He looked nice enough...
"Everyone, my name is Yoshida Akio, and I come from Hiroshima. Though, Kazuki-kun and I are good friends. We're basically here for family business, though my interests are more... Never mind. It will be a pleasure meeting you all. Thank you for letting me come here to Misora." he finished, with a deep bow. Momoko's eyes widened and sparkled. Now isn't that something?
"Okay, my turn!" Sasaki exclaimed, pumping his fist. Nearly shoving Akio over, he quickly erased Akio's name and speed-wrote his own.
"Greetings everyone! The name is Sasaki Kazuki, and I'm from Miyazaki! It's basically how Akio-kun said... And I'm really glad comming here, seeing as I already met some interesting people.. So thanks as well!" Kazuki grinned. Hana beamed. So the nice guy's name is Sasaki-kun...
"Well you two..." Yumi-sensei was quickly cut off by Hana.
"Oh! Oh! Sensei, please! Let Sasaki-kun sit by Hana-chan! BY HANA-CHAN!!" she yelled, waving her arms like crazy. Momoko then stood up.
"And if it's not too much trouble.." she started. "Akio-kun can sit by me! There ARE two empty seats so... Why not? I mean, I'll help him get settled..." Yumi-sensei smiled.
"Alright, if you two insist. Yoshida, Sasaki, you two sit over there by Asuka and Makihatayama okay?"
"Wow! How convient! Akio-kun, it looks like Lady Luck's on our side!" Kazuki said, grinning widely. "Isn't that nice?" Akio blushed a bit and nodded, then sighed.
It's almost too easy... he thought. I thought getting close to those two would be a little more difficult... I'm kinda disappointed..
The two boys then got seated, and immediately the two Ojamajos tried to start up conversations.
"So Akio-kun.." Momoko started, wearing the most friendly smile she had. "You come from Hiroshima? That's really cool, because I'm from America! You know how in World War II..." she paused. "Uh... You know what, never mind. So how do you like it in Misora?" Akio cocked his head to the side.
"I like it... It's a nice place... So.. you're from America... Asuka-san..." Akio started.
"Oh, just call me 'Momo-chan' like my friends do! And yes! Can you speak english, Akio-kun?" Momoko asked, waving her hand. The boy smiled and nodded.
"A little," he admitted. "So... Momo-chan, how'd you first feel when you came to Misora?" The yellow witch laughed.
"Oh, I was nervous. Believe me. Then, I couldn't even speak japanese! It's really hard to make friends when you speak different languages... Good thing I had Doremi-chan..." Akio made a "huh" sound.
"Really? I guess I feel a bit nervous and uncertain... Good thing I have Kazuki-kun... As annoying he is..."
Momoko glanced at Kazuki, who seemed to be caught up talking to Hana, or...flirting? The winks and giggles... Weird. She sweatdropped.
"He um... gets around real easily doesn't he?"
"A little too easily." Akio shrugged, sighing. "But what can I do? He's always been like that..." Momoko looked at him, a bit surprised.
"O-Oh..." she uttered, a blush comming on.
"So, my name is Hana-chan! It's super nice to meet to nice guy, Sasaki-kun!" Hana exclaimed, taking Kazuki's hands in her own. Kazuki looked surprised, scoffed, and snatched his hands away, confusing her. "Er... Sasaki-kun?"
"Please don't call me by my surname like that... It feels too formal." He waved his finger. "Just 'Kazuki' is fine, Hana-chan." Hana looked confused but grinned.
"Okay Kazuuuuki!" she chirped, his name leaving a funny feeling on her tougue. "Hana-chan don't want to be rude, and Hana-chan thinks... Er, I think we'll be great friends, Kazuki!" Kazuki grinned.
"Well said! I like you already, Hana-chan!"
Hana beamed. "Hana-chan likes you too, Kazuki! Hana-chan hopes we'll be really, really great friends... Kazuki!"
"You know... you don't have to end every sentence with my name.."
"Whatta ya mean, Kazuki?"
"You just did it again..."
Hana flushed. "Oh, gosh! Kazuki's right, I AM ending every sentence with Kazuki... Sowwy, Kazuki..." She then took his hand. "Hana-chan knows just how to make it up to you! Hana-chan will introduce Kazuki to her mamas! Doremi, Hazuki, Aiko, Onpu, Moriko, Akemi, Kurumi, Yuki..."
Wait a minute, rewind. Yuki? That girl he was instructed to meet up with?
"T-That sounds great, Hana-chan..." he stated, surprised. Luck really WAS on his side!
Momoko perked up.
"Oh Hana-chan... Akio-kun, then I'll introduce you to our friends too! I'm sure you'll like them..." she started, taking Akio's hands as well. Akio blinked for a couple of minutes.
"Alright... But Momo-chan, if you don't mind, could I introduce my friends too? They go here too, see..." He smiled. "Would you mind?" Momoko shook her head furiously.
"No, no, not at all, Akio-kun!" she responded in hasty english. "But... what are their names?" Akio grinned.
"Ah Momo-chan, that's an easy one. Their names are Nakamura Naoki-kun, and Hakuta Kazuo-kun."
And the plan was set.
--
(Eyecatch: Yuki's shuffling cards in front of the complete group of Ojamajos. She takes the first card and grins, and shows it to the Ojamajos who all smile cheerfully. The picture reveals to be a picture of Yuki as a human, striking a cute pose with a finger pointing up.)
"ENOUGH GAMES LEON-KUN!! TELL US WHY YOU'RE HERE ALREADY!!" Aiko yelled, officially losing it, slamming her hands on the table where they were having a picnic. "We're friends, aren't we?!"
"I told you, it's top secret. We can only share that information with Yuki-chan." he stated matter-of-factly, only this made the blue witch even angrier.
"What's so special about Yuki-chan?! I know she's our friend, but come on! We've known each other longer and..." Aiko stopped her protest, thinking for a few minutes. "Just what... could be so important that you have to transfer to our school?"
"Like we said: top-secret." Tooru ansewered, sighing. "Believe me, if we could, we would. We really would, Onpu-chan." Moriko sighed.
"But I still can't help but wonder.. Tooru-kun."
"Hey, are Akatsuki-kun and Saiki-kun with you too?" Hazuki suddenly asked, curious.
"What about Oyajide-san?" Onpu added, just as curious.
"We need some adult-guidance and he was the closest thing we got," Fujio said with a sigh, "As for Akatsuki-kun and Saiki-kun... Of course they're here."
"We wouldn't be the 'FLATS 5' without them! We supposed to be inspearable! FLATS 5 won't ever be seperated!" Tooru exclaimed, standing up. Aiko sweatdropped. Don't tell me...
"Fujio no... F!"
"Leon no... L!"
"Akatsuki no... A!"
"Tooru no... T!"
"Saiki no... S!"
"The superstars of the Mahoutsukai, the FLATS 5, are at your service!"
Silence. All stared at the newly arrived wizard brothers.
"When exactly did you two get here?" Leon asked, confused. Akatsuki grinned and fiddled with his shoe.
"Just did when we heard the 'A' and 'S' comming up... I.."
"We, Onii-chan." Saiki corrected. "We couldn't resist... So how was your day?"
"Oh wonderful. Ai-chan over here won't stop harassing us." Leon stating, pointing at his stubborn counterpart. The two sweatdropped.
"Oh, that's uh... great!" Akatsuki responded, laughing a bit. Saiki groaned.
"Onii-chaaaan..."
"SAIKI-KUN!!"
"AKATSUKI-KUN!!"
The two perked up, surprised. "Doremi-chan! Yuki-chan! We forgot about you two!" Akatsuki stated surprised at the sight of the two witches rushing to catch up with them, neither of them looking happy.
"Exactly WHAT do you mean forgot? Forgetful, much?!" Yuki shot back, peeved. "Saiki-kun, how could you?! We were in the middle of a heartfelt conversation and... and you just think it's okay to run off? I know you're super happy about finally being in your beloved 'Onii-chan's' group, but it is not polite to just..."
"Oh be quiet Yuki-chan," Kurumi interjected, shoving the black witch to the floor. "Boys will be boys. You have to remember that it's a team thing, what they just did... Hah! This might as well be a children's show!" Everyone else looked confused for a few minutes but laughed.
"Yeah I guess... Demo Akatsuki-kun, at least give me a warning before you rush off like next time, okay?" Doremi asked, shyly twirling a lock of ruby red hair around her fingers. Akatsuki gave her a cheeky grin.
"Can do, Doremi-chan."
"Can't do. Akatsuki-kun.. Face it, you're unpredictable." Saiki stated with a shrug. "Conisder me unsurprised when I learned about you being obsessed with that one show.." His older brother elbowed him in the ribs.
"Look who's talking, otouto-chan."
Saiki growled. "Don't call me that, Akatsuki." Yuki laughed, despite herself.
"That's too cute! Seeing brothers quarrel like that... So, what are you guys doing here anyway?"
Her counterpart lightly blushed before facing her. "Yuki-chan, you should know that better than anyone. The aku majoshikons..." Yuki's expression changed from cheerful to serious.
"Saiki-kun, is that it?" When he nodded, she clenched her fists. "What the heck was Jou-sama thinking...?! If you guys are here to help, then you better repack your bags and go back... It's too dangerous... Saiki-kun, I... I care about you way too much to let you in something like this!"
Everyone seemed surprised, especially Saiki. "Yuki-chan, I owe you remember?" he asked, sighing. "For that dark magic protection... Sheesh, you worried me to no end when you jumped in front... You're the reckless one, and you know... what Otou-chan says goes. I can't do anything about that, and besides... I want to protect you." He said the last line with a smile, making Yuki flush red.
"Ari... Arigatou... Saiki-kun, I'm really glad! I'm so glad... I... It's like a dream having you say something like that... but..." Kurumi cut Yuki off.
"Ah, when's a few helping hands done any harm? If having Saiki-kun here makes you happy, Yuki-chan... That right there should be a good enough reason for them to stay!" she stated, matter-of-factly. "You five better not get in our way or anything, okay?"
"Of course not!" Leon retorted. "We're only here to help, and that's what we'll do!" Tooru and Fujio nodded in confirmation, but Aiko sighed.
"Is that the top-secret info I wanted to know so badly?"
"Top-secret?" Akatsuki repeated, confused. "Oh, you must mean the Fushigi Keitai Denwas..."
Aiko blinked. "The what?"
"Akatsuki!" Leon called out, surprised. "They weren't supposed to know!!" Akatsuki looked surprised.
"Really?"
"Oh..." Yuki uttered. "Akatsuki-kun you jerk. That part was supposed to be a surprise!" Akatsuki made a "huh" sound, but Yuki groaned. "What? You're still clueless... Anyway, hey... Anyone ever know that feeling when somebody's missing... And not just one person but two... Like say, a blonde overly-optimistic American, and a blonde with caramel eyes and looks like a girl but is really a four-year-old?"
"You mean Momo-chan and Hana-chan? Come to think of it... I haven't seen those two at ALL lately.." Moriko noted. "Of course, it was hard to, with that 'Nakamura-kun' on my case..." She shook her head. "But still, it's odd. I mean, Hana-chan isn't very hard to find... Neither is a girl who apparently likes screaming 'Oh my god!' in english..."
Akemi laughed, uneasily. "Um... yeah.. You had someone talk to you too, Moriko-chan? What a surprise! Hakuta-san's nice... But a little scarey, don't you think?" Moriko huffed.
"I bet he'll be even scarier with a black eye and a bloodied nose...Hitting on my Akemi-chan... Pfft. I'll give Hakuta-kun a good reason to back off.""
Akemi then gasped, surprised. "Moriko-chan, no! Do you have any idea how much trouble you'd be in?! And b-besides... Hakuta-san doesn't ask me out all the time... or stuff my lockers with love letters, or anything like that! I mean, Moriko-chan... Fighting is wrong!"
Moriko sighed.
"Oh Akemi-chan..."
"Hey, you guys!!" an undeniably familar voice exclaimed in english.
"MAMAS!!" another uncanny voice shouted. Yuki didn't even have to hesistate to know who they were.
"Momo-chan! Hana-chan! ...Huh?"
Indeed, it was those two... But why were they with two boys none of them had seen before? Or moreover, why was Hana-chan holding onto one boy's hand and dragging him with her? Had they made friends already?
"Come on, Kazuki! Come on, Kazuki!" Hana chirped as she tightened her hand around his. "Here are my mamas and... Ah! The FLAT4 and Saiki! What a huge surprise!"
Saiki laughed a bit. "Nice seeing you, too... Hana-chan..." Hana giggled.
"Kazuki, you are just super lucky today!"
Kazuki nodded. "I... I see that Hana-chan... It's kinda freaky.." Akio sighed.
"So.. Momo-chan says you're Yuki-chan..." he stated, facing Yuki with a smile. "I thought you'd look a bit... different... Considering your name.."
Yuki frowned. Okay, so 'Yuki' was a nice name... But it always fit her ebony-haired form much more than her sunny blonde one. She always did look like a 'sunny girl'. Her personality was the exact opposite too... Sheesh.
Suddenly, Akio took her hand and kissed it, ultimately grabbing Saiki's AND Momoko's attention. Yuki blushed.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Yuki-san." he stated pleasently, stroking her soft hand.
Momoko blushed darkly. Just SEEING this made her feel uncomfortable.
Saiki, on the other hand...
"That's nice." the younger prince stated with slight sarcasm as he pulled Yuki back by her forearm from Akio's grasp. Yuki flushed when she felt his arm snake around her waist and held her unbelievably close. "Mind telling me who you are?"
Akio perked up. "Oh that's..."
"Akio-kun!! Kazuki-kun!!"
"There you two are!!"
"Ah! Kazuo-kun! Naoki-kun!" Akio called out, happily. Akemi and Moriko's mouths dropped.
T-Them?!
It took only five seconds for the two boys to notice the two childhood friends.
"Oh... Akemi-chan..." Kazuo uttered quietly, his glasses gleaming as he blushed a bit.
"Moriko-chan! Good to see you!" Naoki exclaimed. "It's really good, in fact.."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Moriko responded quickly, annoyed. "Naoki-kun, this is clearly a strange concidence." Naoki sweatdropped.
This girl... With Kounna-kun, she calls it fate... If it's possible... I think I may...
He smiled dreamily.
...like her even more...
"...Why are you looking at me like that?" Moriko asked, huffing. "You look really weird... Would you please stop staring?" Blushing, Naoki shook his head and replied with a quick 'sorry'.
"This is super strange!" Akemi yelped, dramatically as she pressed her palms on both cheeks. "I mean, Akio-kun who knows Momo-chan knows Yuki-chan... AND Hakuta-san and Naoki-kun who seems familar with Moriko-chan! I mean, what gives?!" Fujio laughed a little.
"Hakuta-kun, it is strange.. So what do you all want with Yuki-chan anyway?"
"I should be asking that..." Saiki huffed, tightening his grip around Yuki's body, who was still too flustered to speak. "Never before has she mentioned any of you..."
"Actually, knowing Yuki-chan.. It's quite unlikely any of you have met before.." Akatsuki started thoughtfully before glancing at his younger brother for a few seconds. "How would you know her to begin with?"
"Let's say we have..." Kazuki quickly cut Kazuo off.
"We've met Majoren! She told us to come looking for you and..."
"Kazuki-kun! That part was supposed to be secret!" Kazuo snapped, angrily. "You and your big fat mouth..."
"Hey! You really expect her boyfriend to believe us UNLESS we mentioned Majoren-san?" Kazuki shot back, the two of them glaring at each other with traditional lighting in their eyes.
Saiki perked up. "Majoren...? Yuki-chan, wasn't that..." Yuki's eyes widened as she snapped out of his grip and rushed up to Kazuki, taking his shoulders, her hands shaking.
"K-Kazuki-kun, you know Majoren?! I-Is she still a majogaeru? How is she?! Is she m-mad about..."
"Whoah, whoah, whoah! Calm down, Yuki-chan! Yes, she's alright... She just wanted to see you..." Kazuki trailed off, blushing a bit. "Can you... let go now?"
Yuki's grip relaxed and she released, letting out a sigh of relief. "Sou ka... I see... Thank goodness on that one..." She looked up, blushing, and smiled cheerfully.
"I'm just... so happy!"
The four boys in front of her blushed and turned around in a quick conference.
"That got me... Suddenly she's smiling so much..." Kazuki mumbled. "I assumed she was cheerful, but when we finally met her.. I was surprised since she was so quiet..."
"She was in the arms of that guy, so could you blame her?" Kazuo snapped, quietly before sighing, blushing heavily. "But... she... She's cute.. almost as cute as Akemi-chan..."
"And that smile was adorable... almost as much as Moriko-chan's stubborn streak.." Naoki murmured, sighing himself. "Majoren was right..."
The three all sighed. Akio just raised an eyebrow.
"...Unbelievable. We've all reached the conclusion that Yuki-chan's cute but.. pull yourselves together! Majoren asked us to do something, and considering all the woman's done for us... Seriously! It's the least we could do!"
That seemed to grab their attention and they looked at Akio and nodded.
"No wonder Majoren-san wanted you to take charge, Akio-kun..." Kazuki noted, making him blush a bit. "It's really..."
"Hello?"
They all looked at Yuki, who was smiling with an obivious sweatdrop.
"Um.. I'm over here, and I can hear every word you're saying... Thanks for, uh... calling me cute!"
Saiki sighed. What idiots... Of course she was cute...
"So, if you all know Yuki-chan's... uh, orriginal tutor... Do you plan on a reunion or something?" Doremi asked, confused. Naoki smirked.
"Not exactly, pink witch."
"Oh..." Doremi let what Naoki called her sink in before freaking. "What did you just call me?!"
"A witch," he repeated, dully. "Isn't that what you and Moriko-chan... as well as the rest of you little party... are?"
Now everyone was freaking out.
"Gaah! Now we'll all become majogaerus! We're doomed, DOOMED I SAY!!" Moriko exclaimed, hugging a frightened Akemi. "Akemi-chan, it was nice knowing you..." Akemi sniffed.
"It was nice knowing you too, Moriko-chan..."
"Waaaahhh... Hana-chan doesn't want to be a majogaeru!!" Hana whined, hugging a teary Momoko.
"Would you all relax?!" Kazuki demanded, impatiently. "None are you are going to become majogaerus! We're, uh... magic users too..."
Everyone stopped their little panic fest and stared at him for a few moments in disbelief.
"Well... That explains a lot.." Akatsuki started, scratching the back of his head. "Do you all know about the aku majoshikons, too?"
Naoki blinked twice, confused. "You mean those cursed gems? Exactly how would you know something only those close to the king and queen would know? Even Yuki-chan's supposed to be under oath..."
"Because we're supposed to know all that goes on in our kingdom." Saiki responded, immediately taking the offense. "That, and we're not stupid... It took us only a few minutes to figure out everything."
"Oh... Ouji-sama.." Kazuo uttered, sighing. "That would explain everything... The two twin brothers of the Mahoutsukai.. Day and Night... Akatsuki and Saiki..."
"Excuse me?" they both replied at the same time. "Fancy title, but don't use it."
Yuki and Doremi looked at each other. "So... yeah... Well... then we'll meet Majoren! Akio-kun-tachi, take us to her!" Yuki exclaimed.
"W-Would you mind... Akio-kun?" Momoko asked, in english to which he nodded.
"Not a problem, Momo-chan."
"Alright! We're going to meet up with Majoren!" Yuki yelled, holding up her fists. "Perfect! Ne, Saiki-kun! Why don't you come with us?"
Saiki perked up, looked at his friends and shrugged. "Why not?"
"Alright!" Aiko cheered. "We finally get to meet yer tutor, Yuki-chan! I sure hope she ain't like Majorika.." Onpu giggled.
"I bet she isn't."
"Well, come on everyone!" Kazuki exclaimed. "Let's go, already!"
Hana jolted her arms around Kazuki's neck.
"Right, right Kazuki!"
Kurumi winked. "Just don't let her mistake Yuki-chan for me, okay?"
Hazuki adjusted her glasses and giggled. "Who knows?"
Yuki grinned, blushing a bit.
Finally... I can see Majoren again... What a huge relief...
"Yuki-chan!" Doremi called out. "You comming?"
Yuki faced the group with a cheerful smile.
"Yes! Just wait, everyone!"
"Is it me, or does Yuki-chan look a lot happier?" Leon suddenly wondered, sighing a bit.
Saiki made a "huh" sound. "Really... I hadn't noticed..."
Glancing at her, he sighed.
Oh, Yuki-chan... she hasn't changed a bit...
"Minna-san!" Yuki chirped, rushing up to everyone. "Comming! Let's go see Majoren!"
Yes... I've forgotten the ansewers to this strange dark events.. All the questions..
Including...
...a few of my own.

Doremi: She looks really nice... But what's this about fate and destiny...?
Aiko: Who knows?
