CHAPTER 4
"Come back here!" Amu yelled as she ran after and "x" egg.
Out of nowhere Kukai came up with a large canvas beg and nabbed the egg. "Now's your chance Hinamori-san!"
"Amu-chan!" Miki said as she came up behind Amu.
"Right. My own heart, unlock!" Amu transformed into an artist with her white blouse and blue shirt over it, and her blue stockings and blue hat. "Character transformation: Amulet Spade!" She jumped into the air and, using her giant paintbrush, screamed, "Colorful Canvas!" An explosion of color erupted from the paintbrush bristles.
Quickly Kukai released the egg, only to have it trapped in the colorful canvas.
"Ok Amu-chan let's finish this!" Miki sad from inside her egg, inside Amu.
"Yes. Negative heart, lock on! Open heart!" Soon the egg was cleansed and was returning to its owner safely.
"Well done Hinamori-san." Tadase scared Amu as he walked up behind her.
"Miki you did so well!" Ran and Su flew up to Miki to congratulate her for another job well done.
"Thank you Tadase-kun. It's getting pretty easy though…" Amu trailed off when she saw the faint look of sorrow on Tadase's face. "What's wrong?" Before she could get anything more out Tadase hugged her and he began to cry. "What's wrong?" She asked again.
"I have to admit something." Tadase started.
"What?"
"My parents and I are moving…… to South America. My dada got a research job there about the Amazon Rainforest. I can't do anything about it, I have to go." Tadase began to cry even harder (Haha crybaby!). Finally he let her go and just stared at the ground, tears falling from his eyes.
"Tadase-kun. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I only found out last night. It's still a shock to me as well. I really don't want to leave you Hinamori-san because….. well… I love you. Amulet Heart isn't you. You are you." Tadase backed away from Amu slightly.
"Oh Tadase-kun, I love you too." Then Amu began to cry as she hugged Tadase. "What will happen to the king's chair?"
"I'm meeting the new king tonight." Tadase broke the hug so they could talk face to face. I think you should come too." Tadase explained. "Meet me at the planetarium tonight at about 7:30."
"Of course I'll come." Amu said. She didn't want a new king but also knew that there was nothing she could do to keep Tadase from moving to South America. "When do you leave?" She asked suddenly.
"In a few days."
