Stupid typing summer homework, it takes big part of my time to write useful things, like this chapter. Anyways, I suppose you don´t want to read my rambling so, on with the story!

Ami POV

I yawned for what would be the millionth time that morning I´ve been up since dawn stuffing the house with mikes and hidden cameras around the house where Hotori might hide. I looked like a complete mess. I had black circles around the eyes and the bruise on my cheek looked a little black, still blue, but I covered it with some make up. Today our parents come back from their business trip, and also is the same day we´ll tell Amu about our plan.

I finished a simple, yet tasty breakfast for her, so she gets all the energy she will need. I will be okay with coffee with extra caffeine. I headed to her door and slightly knocked.

Amu POV

I woke up from a restless sleep after hearing someone knocking at my door. I checked my clock. 6:30 am. Who the heck wakes up at this hour?

"Rise and shine my beloved sister. Today is the day our parents come back!" Ami came through the door with a tray on her hands. The sweet scent suddenly overflowed the whole room. Ami left the tray on my legs and sat on a corner of the bed.

"What is all this?" I happily asked. It´s has been a while since she did something like this.

"Just a small breakfast I made for you. You know, us being sisters doesn´t mean we always have to hate ourselves." She playfully said and smiled. I smiled and ate a small piece of the heavenly treat. As expected from her. Tasty. I gulped and saw her face. Why is one of her cheeks a little blue?

"Ami. You have something on your cheek." I saw how her eyes widened when I noticed. I took the napkin and tried to clean the spot. She winced and backed up holding the spot.

"Ami, what´s going on? I promise I won´t get mad if you tell me." I said with worry evident on my voice. She sighed and put on a sad smile.

"It was Tadase. I saw how he harmed you and destroyed your computer. I couldn´t stay with my arms crossed, so I gathered up with Utau, Rima, Kukai, Nagi and… Ikuto, so we can figure out something to help you out and put Hotori behind the bars. I was recording a secret conversation with his secret lover. I was careless enough to let something fall over. He noticed and came to my room. Utau and Rime were with me at the time. They hid on my closet while he beat me up. They took the recording and left a note notifying me." I carefully heard everything she said. I couldn´t believe what she actually said. I do believe he´s now a complete psychopath, but I can´t believe he´s an actual thief.

"The plan was to tell you later, but looking at the circumstances, I´ll call everyone here to tell you. I´ll leave so I can fix myself, you should do the same after finishing breakfast." She smiled and closed the door.

I sighed and finished my breakfast. I left the tray for a maid to pick it up and headed to my restroom to take a bath. I opened the water and waited until it warmed up. Meanwhile, I looked at the mirror, and instead of my usual cheerful face, I saw a zombie. The shine on my eyes was gone, my hair was almost lifeless and I had black circles around my eyes. I giggled a little while I stripped down my clothes and entered to the bath. I decided that I would choose my own future from now on.

Ami POV

I already took a bath in the early dawn, so I just washed my faced and applied a stronger layer of makeup. I also switched clothes to something more formal, for my parents too.

Once I finished, I picked up my cell phone and dialed Rima´s number first. She answered before the last tone.

"Ami, I know we have to go to your house later and stuff but, IT´S FREAKING SEVEN IN THE MORNING! Why the heck are you calling me so early?!" I had to get the phone away of my ear to prevent deafness.

"Amu discovered the plan. Besides, we have to tell her before our parents come back. Can you drag Utau with you? You are the only one besides Amu that can handle her." I carefully said. A sigh came from the other line.

"Alright, alright. I´ll be there with Utau in twenty. Bye." And she hung up without another word. Next one, Nagi. He answered after two beeps.

"Good morning Ami-chan. What are you doing up so early?" I smiled. Nagi is always so kind.

"Morning Nagi. I´m fine thanks. I was wondering if you can come here with Kukai as soon as possible? It has to do with mi sis. Well tell her the whole thing."

"Alright. I will be there with Kukai as soon as possible. Expect us to be there in around fifteen minutes."

"Okay. Bye." I hung up. And last but not least, Ikuto. I would have asked Nagi, but I wanted to tell him myself. He answered me after some tones.

"Hello?" He sounded like he just woke up from a nap.

"Hey Ikuto, it´s me." I could hear stretching from the other line.

"Hello Ami. How are you and your sister? Is your bruise better?" He started with the questions.

"Yeah, we are okay, and thank you. My bruise is a whole lot better than yesterday. Hey, can you come here as soon as you can? We´ll begin plotting with Amu before our parents arrive." I said as calm as I could be.

"I understand. I´ll be there in five. See you." And he hung up. I went to the kitchen to grab a snack from the fridge and I sat to watch some TV on the living room. I can wait until my sister comes down.

Amu POV

I came out from the shower completely refreshed. I didn´t feel pain anymore, I felt… bright, like everything on the world is fine… when it isn´t. I dried up my body and dressed up on a cute, yet formal outfit. My parents can arrive any second from noon, and they won´t wait for me if I get at least a second late.

I saw in the mirror and what I saw from before I went into the shower really surprised me. I was my old self again, the cheerful girl who loves to hang out with her friends and have a good time. I added some finishing touches and went downstairs.

All of them where here, and when they saw my, if I can say so, radiant face, their faces went from worried to astonished, then to happy and glad.

"Amu-chan! I missed you so much! I hope you didn´t have a bad time when we were gone!" Rima hugged me like there was no tomorrow, and it didn´t take long for everyone to follow suit. Oh how I missed this good times.

"I´m way better. So, is there something you want to discuss with me?" I cheerfully said. Everyone started rambling about their different point of views from the last days´ events.

Nagi POV

We were all filling up Amu-chan with the latest info from Hotori´s actions. She was taking it pretty good on my opinion. I mean, she hasn´t even shed a tear for all that we were telling her. But she did get worried at times.

"Here are all the memory cards that contain useful data to put that bastard behind the bars." Rima put over the table four memory cards, one from each device that has been used.

"Then we must protect them with our lives." Kukai added. That´s when we heard a loud crash that came from one of the upstairs room. We all went to see what had happened, It turns out a maid just broke a vase. We came back, and that´s where the real problem begins…

"THE MEMORY CARDS ARE GONE!"

I´m so sorry that it took this long to update! I´ve been busy with some tests for school and it´s a big pain on the neck. I´ll update as soon as I can!
