Ah-ha-ha, Gomenesai, I was... busy... Well, uhh, here's the next chappy.

Enjoy!

My instincts awoke me and I snapped my eyes open and sat up quickly. I looked around and everything seemed peaceful, but my instincts always awoke me when they knew something was wrong. I slowly got out of bed, then realized Wolfram was asleep in the bed. I rolled my eyes, then silently left the room. Everything seemed eerily quiet as I walked down the hall.

"Yep, something's definately wrong." I said to myself sarcasticly.

All the sudden, someone screamed and I turned in the direction it came from and started sprintong towards where I heard the scream come from. When I got to the doorway of the room the scream came from, I saw Cheri looking guilty and Morgif laying on the ground. Conrad and Josak were also in the room and they looked slightly annoyed.

"Uhh, what happened?" I asked as I walked over in front of Cheri and picked up Morgif. Something seemed different about him, but I couldn't place my finger on it...

"I'm so sorry your majesty!" Cheri suddenly exclaimed.

"Eh?" I said, completely confused.

Cheri then held out her hand and in it was Morgif's stone and she said, "I just wanted to look at him since he was such a rare object, but when I picked him up, he bit me! I dropped him and his stone just popped out of his forehead."

I sighed, then took the stone from her and looked at it. "Well, you should probly rest since you'll have a nightmare from him biting you." I said.

I then looked at the stone, then at Morgif. I was trying to think of someway to fix him, but then something occured to me. On earth, people always make stronger weapons than someone else. That's how the damn nuke was made... I resolved myself and turned towards Josak and he seemed surprised at the sudden action.

I held out my hand with the stone and said, "I trust Morgif's stone to you."

"Eh?!" He exclaimed.

"You seem to really care for this country, enough so that you were brave enough to insult me." I said. I looked him in the eyes and said, "You truly care for this country, that's enough for you to earn my respect and trust."

Everyone looked at me surprised, and Josak took the stone from me and looked at it. "And what if I betray your trust? What if I sell it to another country?" he asked.

I shrugged and said, "If you think it will help this country, then go ahead."

Josak raised an eyebrow, then smiled and put the stone in one of his pockets.

"Aww, but I thought it would've made a good jewlry piece..." Cheri said.

"Cheri." I said sternly as I looked at her.

"Fine." She said as she crossed her arms and looked away.

I smiled, then said, "Well, I'm going back to my room."

"Don't you mean your's and Wolfram's room?" Cheri said slyly.

"And who's fault is that?" I said as I looked at her. She just giggled and left.

I sighed, then said, "Why me?" I may like him, but sharing a bed before marriage is just a little too... soon... I then left the room and returned to mine and saw Wolfram was still asleep. I stood there a moment, then said, "Well this is boring." An evil idea suddenly popped into my mind and I grinned evily. I quickly and silently left and went to find Cheri's room. I found it, and thankfully, she wasn't inside. I snuck over to her vanity and grabbed bright pink nail polish and some make up. I went back to my room and grinned evily.

It was dinner time and Conrad, Josak, Cheri, and I were all at the dining table.

"Where's Wolfram?" Conrad asked.

I shrugged and said, "He should be coming soon. Anyway, how's the kid doing?"

"He's doing fine. His injuries have been treated and all he can do now is rest." Conrad said.

Just then, Wolfram walked in and it took all my willpower to keep from bursting out laughing.

He had dark purple eye shadow on, along with bright red lipstick, deep pink blush, and he had on mascara. Not to mention, his nails were pink.

Everyone stared at him in shock, and I did my best poker face of being in shock. Cheri then ran over to him and said, "Wolfy! You should've asked for my help! Those colors don't suit you at all!"

"What are you talking about mother?" Wolfram asked, completely confused.

Josak started chuckling while trying to keep himself from laughing and Conrad sighed and put his head in his hand.

"You wouldn't happen to have anything to do with this, would you Yuuri?" Conrad asked me.

"Moi?!" I asked, immitating being in shock that he would even accuse me. "I would never!" I lied.

"Would someone tell me what's going on?" Wolfram demanded as he crossed his arms.

"Oh, come on Wolfy, I'll help you find your colors!" Cheri exclaimed as she dragged Wolfram off to, what I could presume, was her room.

"And you did that, why?" Conrad asked.

"I get bored easily..." I said while trying to act innocent.

Josak finally started laughing and said, "That was a good one your majesty!"

"It's just Yuuri, 'kay?" I said as I grinned widely.

Josak contiued to laugh and said, "All right, Yuuri."

Wolfram stormed back into the room with a wet cloth and it was apparent that he had been trying to get the make up off. "Why the hell won't it come off?!" He yelled at me.

"Because you need make up remover to get it off..." I said innocently. Josak cracked up again and Wolfram glared at him.

"Oh, and nice nails by the way." I said with a smirk. He looked at his nails and his face whitened. He threw up his hands in frustration and stormed out of the room.

"You do know, that he's going to get you back for this." Conrad said as he watched his younger brother storm off.

I thumped my fist on my chest and said confidantly, "No one can out prank the prank master!"

Josak smiled and said to Conrad, "I like the new queen, she's..."

"Unpredictable..." Conrad said as he covered his eyes with his hand. To confirm that statement, I grabbed the tablecloth and yanked it away from the table, but left all the dinner ware on the table. With the table cloth in my arms I said, "Wow, it actually worked!"

Josak applauded me and Conrad just smiled and shook his head side to side.

"And for my next trick!" I announced, "I will disappear!" And with that, I unfolded the table cloth so it blocked Josak's and Conrad's view of me, then I dove under the table and quietly yet quickly crawled under it and ran out the door without them noticing. I silently chuckled to myself, then walked to the top deck. I walked over to the railing and saw Shin Makoku on the horizon. I sighed, then leaned on the rail guard and said to myself, "Just why exactly was I brought here?..."

After a while, someone tapped me on my shoulder, and I turned around, only to be greeted by a meringue pie to my face. I wiped my eyes off and saw Wolfram standing there with a smirk.

"Really? A pie to the face? That's the best you could do?" I asked boredly.

Wolfram smirked and said, "But it still got you."

I raised an eyebrow, then pointed behind him towards the ocean and said, "Whale!"

He quickly turned around and I put a note on his back without him realizing it, then ran off.

"Hey!" He yelled as he chased after me. I ran into the closest bathroom and hid in it. After I was sure he was gone, I got a towel and wiped the pie off my face. I walked out of the bathroom and started strolling around boredly. I ran into Josak and he asked, "Are you the one that put that note on Wolfram?"

I grinned and nodded. He chuckled, then said, "Nice."

"He have any any idea?" I asked.

Josak shook his head side to side and I laughed.

"Might I ask why you two are pranking each other your majesty?" Josak asked.

"It passes time when you're bored." I said with a shrug. "Any idea when we'll be home?" I asked.

"About half an hour." Josak answered.

"'Kay." I said, then I walked off. I continued walking around when I ran into Conrad.

"Wow, I just saw Josak too." I said in mock surprise.

Conrad sighed and said, "Must you two prank each other?"

"Would you rather I prank you?" I asked as I smirked and raised an eyebrow.

Conrad cleared his throat and said, "Carry on."

"Didn't think so." I said as I walked past him.

I went back to the top deck and saw some of the crew preparing the boat to be docked.

"Wow, this was a pretty boring boat trip..." I said to myself.

"Yuuri!" I heard Cheri call from behind me. I turned towards her and saw the boy I saved standing beside her. "He's completely healed and agreed to be part of my crew!" Cheri exclaimed happily.

I smiled and said, "That's good."

The boy avoided eye contact, but said, "Thank you... for saving my life."

"No problem." I said with a smile. The boat rocked some and docked.

"Well, I guess I'll see you later." I said to Cheri as I waved bye and started heading off the boat. I had gotten onto the docks when I saw Wolfram and he was holding another pie. My eyes widened as he threw it at me, so I jumped back to dodge it, but then I realized how stupid that was. Everyones' eyes widened as I fell backwards off the dock. I hit the water, then swam to the surface to breath. "You idiot!" I yelled at him.

"You're the one that jumped backwards!" Wolfram yelled down. I rolled my eyes, and was about to swim towards the shore when I felt a familiar sensation. I sighed, then said, "Here we go again..."

I was floating on my back in the river with Shiori looking at me. My violin case was floating beside me and I was dressed in my normal attire.

"Hey Shiori," I yelled up to her.

"Yes little sister?" Shiori asked boredly.

"What would you think if you saw a girlish looking guy walking down the street with a sign on his back that said, 'Bi'?" I asked.

"I'd think it was possible." Shiori said. I sighed, then grabbed my violin case and started swimming towards the edge of the river. I climbed out and said, "Next time, I'll kill you for that."

"Sure sure, want to listen to some music?" Shiori asked as she held up her ipod touch.

"Depends, what song?" I asked.

"The Game, by Disturbed." She answered.

"Sure." I said as I took the left earbud from her and put it in my ear.

*Ending of the song*

'Is she not right?

Is she insane?

Will she now run for her life

in the battle that ends this day?

Is she not right?!

Is she insane?!

Will she now run for her life

Now that she LIED TO ME!

The little b****,

She went and she told a LIE!

Now she will never tell another.

A LIE!

The little b****,

She went and she told a LIE!

Never F***ING LIE TO ME!'

"You really had to play the clean version?" I asked.

"Yep." She replied.
