Chapter 5: Ready, Set…

Aneko's pov

It's spring again. And you know what that means! A new school year. Finally, I'll be a first year in high school. I believe that means less rules!

I was just about to close my eyes again when my mom knocked on the door.

I groaned and pulled my pillow over my head.

"I wanna sleep." I thought. Amu just walked in anyway.

"Wake up little kitty." She said softly. I felt her pink hair on my face as she bent over me. I could feel her relentless golden eyes on me and knew she had nothing better to do than stare at me until I got up.

"I'm awake, Amu." I told her. She just stayed there for a while longer. Then she backed up. I smiled.

"Get up or I'll drag your tail downstairs and stuff breakfast down your throat." She threatened. Her voice didn't even change from the last time she'd spoken. I huffed and sat up. I opened my dark blue eyes. The first thing I saw was myself because my full-length mirror was right across from my bed.

I stood up and pulled up the top of my black tank top. Then I brushed the wrinkles out of my blue shorts. "Happy now?" I asked Amu as I walked toward my "bookshelf." Calling it a bookshelf isn't actually right. More like a manga shelf. I am incredibly picky with normal books so my parents stopped buying them for me. With manga the pictures make up for the boring parts.

What was I talking about again? Oh yeah. So I walk over to my manga-shelf and pick up a red egg with a pattern of black kittens doing different poses like head stands and holding flowers. I rub my left hand back and forth across it like Aladdin does with his magic lamp.

"Nya. Five more minutes, Mom." Kyoko whines, cracking her egg. Why she always calls me that in the morning, I still don't know.

"Planning on skipping breakfast this morning, Kyoko?" I ask. Well I don't know if you'd really call it asking. But, whatevs…

By the time I'd eaten, brushed teeth, showered and got to the stairs Amu and Ikuto were ready. Katsumi was already gone. He was a going to be a third year and didn't really care about the first year assembly. Can't say I blame him. I'd ditch, too. Only problem is that Mom and Dad are coming.

"I'm so excited!" Mom told Dad. "I haven't seen Rima in forever! And I know you secretly want to see Tadase again." Mom smirked.

"Why do you think everyone's gonna be there?" Ikuto asked Mom.

" I have my ways and my reasons…" She said smirking harder.

Wow. This is gonna be awkward as heck.

Another house. (see if you can figure it out)

"Hurry up, Ikuto!" I heard my mom scream from downstairs. Sometimes she is really annoying. I opened my bedroom door and heard my mother's stiletto heels clicking as she ran around on the wooden floor of the kitchen.

I got downstairs and leaned on the wall.

"Wallet… wallet…" my dad mumbled to himself running around the house. He gave up and scratched his head. "Oh well. Sorry Ikuto. Guess Mom's driving I can't find my license." My dad told me.

This is annoying. This family has issues. I just shook my head. Great. My first day of high school and we're all gonna die! I thought. Mom drives like a maniac when she's anxious. And today she definitely is.

She was singing some super old song I heard a long time ago. It was something about a butterfly… Whatever it was called the song was by someone called Hoshina Utau. The girl was like fourteen or something and disappeared just before her international debut.

Mom has a beautiful voice. She was trying to put her long blond hair into ponytails, but—of course—the rubber band broke.

"Stupid rubber band…" She muttered under her breath. I pulled out one of the big ones that I would've used as a sling shot from around my wrist, under my long sleeve. "Thanks." She said. My dad rubbed my head. My mom finished her second ponytail.

"Ready, Utau?" My dad asked my mom. I grabbed my backpack. I was really starting to wish I had left earlier like my brother, Kukai.

"Ready, Kukai." She said containing in her voice the excitement which shone through her eyes. Then I opened the door and strolled out, my parents marching out behind me.

Another "mystery" character's house (mystery character pov)

"Temari, I'm not afraid to leave you! You need to hurry up, too Rima!" I heard my oldest son call to his siblings. "Nagi, we're running out of time!"

My black-haired oldest son came down the stairs, almost tripping over one of Temari's books. "That's what you get, Inconsiderate Jerk!" My daughter's shrill voice rang out. At times like these I really missed Amu-chan. I wanted someone to laugh with. I gripped my mug tighter. My ring clinked against my white coffee mug.

Then I remembered Amu has kids, too. Maybe she'd be at the school. Probably not at the ceremony for the incoming first-years. But, I mean, she did marry Ikuto and the last time I talked to her was 15 years ago and she had a little boy and girl at the time. So maybe she'll be in the office. But you never know…

I was torn from my thoughts when my husband, Nagihiko Fujisaki Senior, reminded me that we had to leave. "The kids are already in the car."

"Alright." I said, pulling my robe off to expose a beige pant-suit with a black shirt and black –pointed toe shoes.

As a final touch I add my signature black ribbon headband.

I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. "Thank you God." I began my morning prayer, "For not letting Mom cook…"

Chitose, my chara, laughed when I finished because I thanked God for keeping Mom out of the kitchen.

"Yaya's good at a lot of things. She's my mom. Plus, she's, like, my best friend. Cooking just isn't one of her strong points." I said. she laughed so hard that she tipped over and just fell on my bed, laughing her head off.

I huffed, pouting.

"That's…" Chitose said between laughs, "the… under- (insert fit of giggles here) understatement…of the… year!!!!"

"Whatever, Chitose…" I said coldly.

"Aww, come on—"

"Miki, breakfast is ready." Mom said from the door. I turned to her. Chitose looked, too. Yaya looked really pretty. She had her long brown hair in a ponytail with one big black bow in the top. It was flipped at the bottom. Yaya was wearing a short black dress to match my uniform. She wore a round-toed, black boot with a stiletto heel.

"You like?" Yaya asked, posing.

"Kawaii!" I responded.

"After breakfast Momma will do your hair!" She said pointing at herself.

"Thank you!" I exclaimed walking out of my room. Yaya held the door open for my pouting chara to fly out. Chitose floated beside me as I walked down the stairs.

"Miki, Yaya!" My father called from the kitchen. "If you two don't hurry up you'll miss breakfast."

I ran into the kitchen, ate quickly, brushed my teeth and got dressed. Mom gave me bangs and a pair of side ponytails. I did her lipstick because if she had done it herself it would look like a three- year-old had gotten into her mother's lipstick.

"Miki, guess what!" Yaya said as I sat down in our car.

"What, Momma?" I asked, inspecting my black-and-blue slip on Vans.

"I bought you a first day of school gift!" She said handing me a shoe box wrapped in her favorite kind of wrapping paper. Christmas paper.

I opened the box. Inside was a pair of shiny black pumps with buckles. "Wow." I breathed. "Thank you, Momma and Poppa."

I rubbed my hand along the shoes and slipped them on.

"Miki don't loose your glasses today." Papa warned.

Man, I hate wearing glasses. It's so embarrassing. It's not like Momma wears glasses. But then again she has perfect vision. Why can't I just get contacts? I thought.

Oh, well…

"We're almost there!" Mom squealed. I looked out the window. Here we go.

Chitose giggled. "Yaya is acting like a little kid."

I glanced at Yaya and sighed. High school… Guess it's time to grow up…

Another mystery household (I have a feeling this one will be easy to figure out…)

Mwhahaha!!!! Now my master plan goes into action! Operation: explain myself and Make amends with Nii-chan! (a/n: what a long name…)

The kid is eating breakfast. I'm reading the newspaper and wearing a black suit. He's wearing a black uniform just like Nii-chan's high school uniform. Why, you ask. Well that's because he's going to Nii-chan's old school.

"Dad," my son interrupts my thoughts. "Dad, you're talking to yourself again."

I feel myself blush and realize that I have one foot on the table the other in the chair. Guess I went into Kiseki mode again… -sweat drop-

"Tadase!" My wife screams. "what are you doing to my brand new imported kitchen set!?!" I sweat drop again.

"…So that's where all the new car money went." I say out loud, remembering when my check bounced for the custom-made yellow Lexus. This woman is really getting on my nerves again…

"Can we just go now?" Chiko asks standing up.

"Wait, I gotta do my make-up!" Saaya says pulling out a tube of lipstick from her fur coat.

Did I mention that she's REALLY GETTING ANNOYING!!?!!

"We're out of time. Just do it in the car Saaya." I say dragging her out of the house.
