Butter: Hey, everyone!
Akihime: Can we get on with the story? It's been fricking too long.
Butter: S-shut up! I've been busy.
Akihime: Then what about Tsuki?
Butter: She's busy for her ballet recital. I think that's what it's called.
Akihime: Chiru?
Butter: He just got home from staying at our cousin's.
Akihime: Skittles?
Butter: He had an AP test coming up and it was yesterday.
Akihime: Oh... Anyway, please enjoy this chapter. -thinks Butter lying-
As Ikuto settled into his seat on his plane, he set out his laptop. "I think they are on…" As Ikuto logged onto his laptop, someone tapped him on his shoulder. Ikuto turned around to see his maid.
She had silver dust hair that fell down to her waist with crimson red eyes. She often to be mistaken as Ikuto's niece, since they both had good looks. "Tatsujin-sama, I'm going to sit next her, so do you need anything?" Her voice was mature and formal, nothing else.
"I don't need anything as of now, but I'll call you when I need something." Ikuto turned his head back to his laptop. He could sense his maid had left, because the door slid closed behind him. "Now, to see if they're on."
They were on after all. He clicked on their pictures and two windows popped up, with two women looking at him.
The one on top had long curly beige hair. Her eyes were a light gold color. She wore a small black bow headband in her hair.
The other woman had soft red eyes. Her hair was a soft orange color which was wavy. Behind her was a wig hanging on a rack.
"So Suzaku, I heard from Rima that you talked to those kids." Ikuto looked at the women who was on the bottom window, smirking.
"Don't remind me. My son was being such a brat. But I probably shouldn't bring that subject in front of him. I wonder how I'm going to face him at the party…" Suzaku was rubbing her forehead.
Laughter was heard from the top screen. "Poor Suzaku. I think I know where your son gets his attitude."
Suzaku scowled at Rima. Apparently, she was talking to Rima too. "It's not my fault. I even wonder how my husband deals with him."
"But you don't miss him? I mean it's been like nine years." Rima noted.
"Oh, you been away for that long. Are you sure that your husband is not cheating on you?" Ikuto had his smirk remained.
"Shut up! I know he won't leave me. He did marry this Suzaku after all. Everyone knew that it was going to be hard to get my heart." Suzaku nodded.
"You're right. Everyone thought that you were going to dump him, except for Ikuto… Ne, Ikuto. How come you didn't bet that they were going to break up?" Rima looked at Ikuto.
"You guys were betting?!" Suzaku was fuming and shocked.
"Yeah, but I said you guys wouldn't. I mean you did make his life more entertaining." Ikuto picked up his drink.
"True." For some reason, Suzaku's face was red.
"Ah, what's this? Has Suzaku-chan been hiding something from us?" Rima was having fun picking on her kouhai. Rima and Suzaku used to go to the same school, and Suzaku was a year younger than her.
"S-shut up! Anyway, how much longer till I have to wear that wig? It is super annoying." Suzaku pointed at the wig behind her.
"Not too much longer. After we meet up at the party, don't wear any longer. Your husband will probably think you're going bald…" Ikuto looked away.
"Okay… Wait, what did you say, you stray?!" Suzaku was off of her seat.
"Now, calm down. We still have to talk about them, right, Ikuto?" Rima was sweating at her friend's actions.
"Yeah, let's get down to business. Rima, you told her about the eye patch thing, right?" He saw Rima nodded and Suzaku got back on her chair.
"Suzaku, you will still help the Guardians, until they find their Joker."
Suzaku nodded. "I have a question about that though. What do I do with them? They seem to know nothing of what to do. They don't even know how come they were chosen…"
Rima's eyes widened. "Are you serious? I have to talk to my daughter then."
"Don't." Ikuto's voice caused them to have questioning looks.
"Suzaku, disband the Guardians." Ikuto laid back on his chair as he closed his eyes, waiting for their reactions.
"What?!" Both women jumped out of their seat.
"Ikuto, are you crazy? Then who is going to be in charge?" Suzaku picked up her seat again.
"We can't just hand over those positions to random students." Rima also picked up her seat.
"I understand. I already know who will hold those positions. They're on the plane with me. Do you know how come I said that the Guardians should disband?" Ikuto looked at his friends.
They shook their heads.
"If they disband, then they will try to find a way to get back together. Which means that they will use all the spare time they have to look up the meaning of the Guardians and seek the past Guardians, that will lead them to finding their Joker." Ikuto looked closely at each women if they understood.
"Oh, I get it. It will help them find their Joker faster." Rima looked at Ikuto if she got it right.
Ikuto nodded.
"I get you, but I wonder how those kids will react. Anyway, when do we get to meet the new Guardians?"
"They will be present at the party. That's all I'll tell you about them." Ikuto looked at his watch. "Looks like I have to go. I got to work on some paperwork for their transfer papers. Suzaku, remember what I said about them disbanding."
"Hai, hai. I will tell them. But not until the new members show themselves."
"Okay, that will work. Well, bye." As each woman signed off, he took a sip of his drink. He picked up the transfer papers and beginning filling them out.
"Tsukiyo-, no, Akatsuki Maika. That should work."
Butter: Does anyone know who is Suzaku? No one knows?...
Rima: Finally, I appear. Don't I play a main role in this? -.-
Butter: You do! How can I leave you out? You're one of my favorite! -snuggles-
Skittles: What about me?
Butter: Eh... You're okay. Raikou was made after you...
Skittles: How am I like that brat?!
Raikou: You want a fight?
Skittles: Sure. Bring it, brat.
Rima: Oi! Stop it.
Butter: Tick me, and you'll both get kicked out!
Skittles: Now... Let's calm down.
Rima: -sigh- Anyway, please review. Butter, Tsuki, Chiru, and Skittles will be working on the other stories, so they might not update as fast, just to tell you.
