When I left the office, I circled the school. I was looking for a Storm Rider's mark. It was a bit early to look, but I was itching for a fight. I needed something to focus on that wasn't normal. I found it behind the gym. It was a bear of some kind.

"You ride ATs?" someone asked. I didn't jump. I had heard him follow me here. It was Mike. Figures he would have poor tracking skills.

"A bit," I told him. "Who's the team?" I asked.

"Nothing much," He said. "It was just me and some other guys fooling around. The Forks Bears,"

"Not very creative," I commented.

"We were just fooling around, we don't really do much."

"F class?"

"D," His response was immediate. It took a lot of time and planning to create a Storm Rider team. And to get to D class they must have won at least a few battles. "I've been meaning to ask, but the picture on the back of your jacket, isn't it an AT team?" so some people did know it.

"Yeah, my boyfriend was a Storm Rider, Kogorasumaru is the team name."

"Was?"

"He died, murdered," My voice was cold. I wondered if he could since my blood lust at the moment.

"If you're interested you could join us, we could teach you a few tricks," he offered.

"No thanks," I said. I walked up to the sticker so it was about five inches away from my face.

"Cool isn't it?" he asked. I could hear the smile in his voice.

I pulled something out of my pocket. Kogorasumaru's sticker. I put it over Mike's. "It's not cause you're a bad guy or anything," I assured him. "Ikki just told me to take over this area."

"You're a part of…" he trailed off. He hadn't considered that I would be on such a famous team.

"It's a secret that you're on the team right? Well it's a secret that I'm on a team too," I smiled. "You can choose the time and location. D class is a cube match right? Everyone else is back in Japan, so let's have a one on one match," I said walking past him. He was still shocked.

The next day was better and in some ways worse. Better because Mike didn't let on anything about me being a Storm Rider. Worse because people were whispering about me living with Cyan.

"You can live with him," Jessica said when I asked her about it.

"Yeah, so what?" I asked irritated. Cyan wasn't the friendliest person in the world but we got along.

"Well, there are rumors about him, like he doesn't come out in the day-"

"He came to the school to register me and give them my papers," I told her shooting down the rumor.

"Also some that say he's rich, and that he earned the money through illegal ways," She said this a bit quieter.

"My grandfather owns a company, Cyan worked there for a few years doing work on technology. He made a big break through and the check was big. Now he does some computer stuff through the internet. He owns a few clubs in the state as well,"

"So you're related?" Her eyes were wide.

"That was one too?"

"Um, yeah, Cyan doesn't look like the type that has family, so people kind of figured…" she trailed off.

"He's my uncle, my father's little brother. He's like around his late twenties I think. They were pretty far a part in age."

"So if you weren't related would you go after him?" She was suddenly excited.

"First of all ew, I never thought of that, and second, no. With his personality he might be a good boyfriend but not a commitment I would make."

"So a great one night fling," she said as if committing it to mind.

"Nope, Cyan wouldn't do that. He's traditional about a lot of things." I couldn't have her getting ideas.

"Oh," she said as if I was crushing all of her dreams. I laughed.

"You just can't go for the hot ones, Jessica. You have to look into personality as well." She blushed.

When we walked into the cafeteria I scanned the room for Edward. He wasn't there. He had common since, or did he just want to keep his family safe?

Mike walked me to Biology. He leaned on the edge of the table until the bell rang. I didn't like dogs much, and he was taking on the personality of one. If Agito was with me, I wouldn't have to worry about over friendly boys. Even Ikki and Kazu, two of my best friends, kept their distance when he was around. I missed how territorial he used to be.

I looked over at the empty seat next to me. I wondered if he would come back. If he could get over my scent and treat me like a regular human. I wished he would come back. I already knew what he and his family were. It would be nice to talk to someone who was smart. Wouldn't it be nice to talk to some one who knew everything? Wouldn't it be nice to not have to hide who you were? I glanced at the seat again. Would he be brave enough to come back?

In gym I had to dress out. I played as well as the other girls, tripping my self up every now and then. It would be hell trying to ignore all the sports teams if they knew my real skills.

I felt better when I finally changed back into my jeans and Kogorasumaru jacket. I headed out to my car. It was surrounded by a bunch of boys and a few girls.

"Is that Cyan's car?" One of the girls asked. I nodded trying to push my through the crowd. A few people looked at me strange. "It's his, so there's something going on with them right?" I heard someone whisper. I rolled my eyes, frustrated.

"Do you mind?" I snapped at the crowd. I heard a few more whispers about me and Cian but they moved. Slowly. Besides the Volvo, my car was the newest on the lot. While I waited for the line to move, I saw the Hale twins get into the Volvo. Money and looks often went together. When I watched Alice get into the car I noticed they were all dressed in designer brand clothes. They were simple but defiantly designer. Well, if Alice really could tell the future and Carlisle was a doctor, it was expected that they would have money.

I headed to the store before I went home. Cyan had left a note that told me to pick up coffee and which brand. I had gone to the ATM to check the balance on the card Cyan had given me. I nearly choked when I saw the total was five hundred. As I put a few containers of the coffee in my basket, I saw a brand of tea often used in sweets. Not good. My inability to look at sweets had lessened a bit, but sometimes when I saw a specific ingredient, it had the same effect.

I looked away quickly and grabbed some raspberry tea. It was one of my favorites and it would help me calm down if I had a panic attack in the house. When I went to the check out counter the girl there stared at me. She took a good look at the card when I slid it through and then at the brand of coffee. "So you're Cyan's house guest," She said. I looked up at her after I entered the pin number. She had on too much eye liner but besides that she was fairly pretty.

"He's my uncle," I told her to prevent a misunderstanding.

"Really?" She asked surprised.

"Yes, my dad's younger brother, I guess I should start carrying around a picture so people will believe me," I laughed.

"No, I can see a bit of resemblance, you have the same eye shape," She told me. I wondered how long she had stared at Cyan to know the exact shape of his eyes. I smiled and then took my bag. It didn't surprise me that Cyan stood out. In such a small town, where people have known each other for generations, abnormalities do not go unnoticed.

When I got home I put every thing up and went up stairs to check my E-mail. Cyan was asleep. He would wake up around nine or ten. He was a night person like me. I had around seven messages, almost all of them from Japan.

Sweetness,

Have you gotten used to Forks? How was school?

Father

Father's said. I sent him one describing Jessica (all the good things) and Angela. I told him about a few of my classes too. The next one was from Emily. Being the only two girls on the team we had created a bit of a bond.

Nami,

How is every thing? Is your uncle nice? It's pretty much the same here. I'm making sure that Kazu-sama stays on the training schedule you gave him. Ikki keeps going on about having territory in another country. I looked up Forks, Washington online and saw that it rained a lot there. Shouldn't your father have sent you some where sunny? Any way I hope everything is okay and you don't get TOO wet.

Em,

Emily was nice. I sent her back an e-mail talking about the rain and stuff at school. I told her how annoying Mike was and that I got along with Cyan. I told her that I still couldn't bake or see sweets and that I still didn't have my wings. I was trying though, that had to be better than not.

The next two E-mails were from Kazu and Ikki. Kazu' talked mostly about training and he wished me a happy birthday. Ikki only asked about territory. I wrote them both the same thing.

I found a D class team. I'll have a one on one match with them as soon as they pick a time and place. I may not be able to fly, but I can kick the ass of a couple of D class.

Nami

I was stretching from all the typing when my phone rang. By the ring tone (Crow Song by Girls Dead Monster) I could tell it was Ikki.

"Nani?" I asked picking up the phone.

"You're on speaker phone," Ikki said and as if to prove this everyone started saying hi.

"I just sent the E-mails back,"

"That's how we knew you were awake," Emily said. You could hear the smile in her voice.

"Any hot girls at your school?" Onigiri asked.

"A few, but their personalities suck and the others are taken," I told him.

"You've been eating right?" Buccha asked

"I cleared my bento two days in a row and I've even been eating breakfast,"

"Good for you!" He exclaimed.

"So how much is out territory expanding?" Ikki asked.

"All you ever care about is stupid crap like that, aren't you worried that Nami isn't getting better?" Emily scolded.

"But she's going to school so she's making progress," Ikki protested.

"I don't know the details yet but I put the sticker on top of theirs in front of one of the members. The Forks Bears I think their called. D class." I said breaking up a potential fight.

"We'll look them up," Buccha promised. "You okay with out someone to shadow though?" he asked. I was the Shadow Queen. All the time I was with Kogorasumaru I was shadowing Agito. I followed him, mimicking his movements at a speed where no one could see me, creating retaliation to his attacks. It was how we got rid of small fry, or did some damage on a strong opponent. I had shadowed Kazu and Ikki a few times just to surprise other teams who knew my connection with Agito.

"You know that chain of about three hundred emblems I have?" I asked him.

"Yeah,"

"I didn't get them with Agito's help. I was alone when I fought them."

"So you had no help getting to A class?" Kazu asked.

"Agito taught me the basics, wall riding, jumping, running. I only had help in the beginning. I can fight on my own, don't worry." I told them. I had gotten my fighting skills earlier than any of them and I had just applied them to the small riding techniques Agito had taught me.

"Tell us when the battle is. Make sure you set it on a web cam so we can watch. These guys might be good followers." Buccha commanded. Besides Agito, he had the most knowledge about the AT world. Stuff like followers and territory he knew all about. When it came to kings, regalia, and other high ranking stuff, I knew the most because of my time as Agito's tuner.

We talked for a little while more about AT stuff, then, cause they had school in the morning, they had to go. I did my homework and then went to sleep, briefly wondering if Cyan would notice that I had skipped dinner.

I know it's been a while but I keep getting emails about people liking this story.

I really hoped for more reviews though. Anyway please enjoy and review. Thanks for reading.
