Chapter 2: The Guardians

Rrrrring The bell rang for break time, and about 25 students ran out of the classroom. Amu pulled the earphones out of her ears and ran her fingers through her shoulder-length, bubble gum pink hair. "Hinamori-chan, are you ready?" Yaya asked, poking Amu's shoulder. She put her I-pod away and pulled out a box of strawberry flavored Pocky, and a bottle of green tea. "Okay, Yuiki-san …" Amu said quietly, getting up from her uncomfortable plastic seat. "No, call me Yaya- chan!" Yaya corrected cheerfully as she skipped out the door. Amu smiled for a moment at Yaya's excessive childish happiness.

Amu felt the eyes on her from all of the students at the High School. "Only if I was… normal, I guess…" She thought, staring down at her uniform. She had rolled up the skirt to make it shorter, put on a belt with tiny skull rhinestones on it, and accessorized her jacket with X's and two little buttons on the right side of her collar. (I am really bad at introducing visualization, sorry~) "Come on, slow poke!" Yaya yelled to Amu grabbing her hand and running. "Y-yaya!" Yaya ran all the way down the stairs, across the fields, and straight to a beautiful glass dome looking thing. She stopped running, causing Amu to bump into her. "S-sorry…" She muttered, taking a few steps back.

"This is the Royal Garden! Welcome!" Yaya winked at Amu. "Royal? Is this some kind of joke?" Amu thought, feeling her stubborn side possessing her. "Come one, Amu- chi!" Yaya called, running into the big doors of the Royal Garden. I followed her, keeping my cool. "AMU- CHIIIIII STOP BEING SO SLOW!" Yaya's voice echoed around the building, startling her.

That's when she entered a room where four students (including Yaya) were sitting like they were royalty. A boy with orange hair and an ear piercing, a girl with long black flowing hair, Yaya, and a boy that looked like a prince, he had yellow hair that leaned into his face, shining eyes, and a crooked smile. "Hello, Hinamori- san," He said his voice was like a million Christmas bells. I could feel myself burning. "H-hello…" I said, bowing. The girl chuckled. "Tadaseee let's introduce ourselves!" Yaya suggested, acting like a little toddler begging for food or something. Tadase nodded seriously. "My name is Tadase Hotori, King's chair." The black haired girl said in a sweet voice, "My name is Fujisaki Nadeshiko, Queen's chair." Orange hair, "Soma Kuika! Jack's chair!" Yaya said in her childish voice, "Yuiki Yaya! Ace chair!" "Hinamori-san, we want you to be in the Guardians with us. We can tell you have them." Tadase said firmly, pointing to my book bag.
