Sorry for the long absence and everything. I got kinda bored with my story so I took a break but after having two dreams including Ikuto and my oc, I started having this weird feeling start up in my stomach. I thought it was the feeling of inspiration again so I started writing this chapter. Turns out I was just hungry that day.

I mainly put this story out because I was bored so, if I get enough reviews, I might want to put up more chapters. ^-^

Important Note: Mika and Kukai are going to be in 8th grade both at age 13 because the gap between Ikuto and them are nearly child molestor level. The class that they have to do the project on is Japanese Folktale. I hope that works for ya'll.

But I also started another entirely different story and I just might put it up too. But, it all depends on the swing of my tail… yeah, I just used an Ikuto phrase. Deal With It!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Shugo Chara characters, only my Oc's and the plot.

Fin.

… Wait, that's French for end…

( insert French word for Start)

Recap:

Backing away from the edge, about to turn around, Aya hissed and Sora gasped. That's when I felt an arm snake around my waist and a hand grab both of my wrists. Hair tickled my neck and I felt breathing at my ear.

"Seems like I've caught myself a little kitty."

~~~~~~~~~Chapter VI~~~~~~~~~

The voice was husky and unique all on its own but sounded rehearsed, as if the sentence had been thought of before hand or said before to a different person.

"No you haven't! I'm the kitty you numbskull! Now let Mika go right now!" Aya yelled as she repeatedly kicked and scratched the guy's face. Then another chara popped out of nowhere and started pulling Aya away from the guy, which caused Sora to try to help her older sister by pulling the chara's cat ears. (Poor Yoru :C )

"So it's Mika, huh?" the guy said, again with the rough voice.

"So, it's creepy pedophile, huh?" I mocked.

He chuckled but groaned in pain as I stomped on his foot and elbowed him in the stomach. He released me and I stood at the other side of the roof.

"Seems she's a frisky one too. I like that in a girl."

"Would you shut up already." I said, part of Aya's chara-change persona slipping out.

I ran away from the guy, jumping rooftop to rooftop, but he also had the abilities of a cat and caught up to me in no time. We were at one of the tallest buildings when Aya's chara-change wore off. Out of all of the times to wear off, why now?! I could become a pancake if I fell.

"Sora. Chara-change."

I watched from the corner of my eye as she twirled around in the air with a confident look on her face.

"Finally! Flip-Flap-Flutter!"

White wings slowly started to form behind me, protruding from my back. I felt the wings attach to my back and I flapped them open to make sure they worked well enough to fly. The wings were small, only reaching to my fingertips if my arms were outstretched. They gave off a dim enough light to not be noticed by the people down on the streets but bright enough to allow me to see the guy.

He had short midnight blue hair with bangs coming over his eyes, a few strands astray, while his eyes glowed a deep blue almost purple. The guy wore a high school uniform adorned with crosses hanging from his collar, sleeves, and black choker. The guy stood tall and lean with cat ears protruding from his head and a tail like mine were; except mine were better because they were black and his are blue.

His chara floated above his shoulder with his chara's tail swishing back and forth. The chara had bright yellow cat eyes and the same color hair but a bit more tussled looking. He wore a black shirt with a white cross coming from a choker, black knee-length shorts while his hands and feet were that of a cat.

"So, what do you want that's so important that you have to stalk me?"

He glared at me, pointed to my messenger bag and said, "I want to know why you have the Humpty Lock."

The Humpty Lock dangled from the strap that I had connected it to on my bag and seemed to brighten up by the mention of it.

"Are there any other pointless questions that I won't answer that you feel you need to ask?"

He seemed to be getting annoyed. Good! Now you know how I feel right now. I'm hungry and I get pissed when my stomach isn't happy.

"That belongs to Amu."

"And? You could give it to her but it wouldn't be of any use." I smirked as he walked closer, interested but still not happy.

"Why is that?"

"I mean, it doesn't work for her anymore."

He seemed stunned but quickly got angry.

"Ikuto, you need to calm down," his chara said.

"Be quiet Yoru."

Ikuto just glared at the lock but lost focus when I began to step away.

"I can't say it's been a delightful chat and all but, I gotta fly."

I stepped towards the edge of the roof as Ikuto grabbed my arm. A ball of light formed in my hand and flashed brightly in his eyes, stunning him enough to let go of me. I fell backwards, flapped my wings and flew away.

"See you again Ikuto Yoru."

In a few minutes, I was in my room with the lights out, curled up in my bed with Sora sitting on a pillow and Aya already having gone to her egg to sleep.

"That was really awesome Mika. We should come home like that every day!"

I wasn't paying attention to her as I thought about Ikuto's reaction to Amu and the lock.

"Mika-chan, are you even listening to me?"

"Nope."

"What are you thinking about? That Ikuto boy?" Sora grinned at me, knowing she was right but only in Hell would I ever admit it.

"Never in my life. Why?"

Sora's grin slowly vanished and she looked sad.

"I noticed that when he mentioned Amu, he had a special connection to her, more of a friend than anything else. But..."

"But? Come on out with it."

"I don't know. I can only tell what people feel when there's romance or love involved. Nothing more and nothing less but something about him was off."

Yeah. There was something off about his reaction to the lock and it's abandonment of Amu. Then when I left. Is there more to the story than just owning a huge sparkly locket that looks like it belonged in a Lolita ad?

I thought of Ikuto's face when he realized the lock now belonged to me. I saw shock. Then, I saw interest. And when I flew away, I saw… something else. Oh, who the hell am I kidding? I messed up interpreting Orochimaru's feelings for Sasuke as just 'I want your body so I can live longer' when he really meant 'I want your body so I can pleasure longer'. (Oh the horrible images!!!!!!!)

I eventually fell asleep as the moon was high in the dark sky.

Sora looked at Mika and giggled but shook her head shortly afterwards.

'It can't be…could it?'

The sun blared down at us as Kukai and I walked over to the shrine of the Goddess Yasu. The shrine was located at the edge of a forest centered in a small plateau, overlooking the ocean. The edge of the plateau went down about 10 feet or so and waves crashed against the rocks. This was the original shrine from way-back-when but there was a trail that led back to the temple for prayers and such.

Kukai grinned at the sight but still looked bored. I was too. Having to spend a Saturday out researching for that stupid, dumb ass project, a waste of lifetime.

I took a picture of the shrine as Kukai took notes and translated for me. The shrine was not as corroded by the water as I thought it would be and looked fairly decent for being over hundreds of years old.

The shrine had a statue of the Goddess Yasu, who reigned over the moon. She was sitting in a kimono looking out over the distant ocean.

"What does it say Kukai?"

For someone living in Japan, I can't read worth shit but can speak perfect, fluent Japanese. Kukai knelt down in his green shirt and brown shorts with his skateboard in hand.

"Just says 'Yasu looking out into the open sea. Waiting for whom only a select few would know.' Weird." He mumbled.

'"We'll get more information if we go to the temple. Come on."

"But I wanna go play soccer and ride my skateboard."

"Hey! I don't want to be out here any more than you do, but I'd rather get this thing done today rather than waiting and listening to your ass for any more than I have to." I walked down the trial with Kukai following behind.

"Maybe this is the reason why you don't have any friends."

I stopped and turned around, furious at him.

"You turn them against yourself so you don't have to deal with them. So they can leave you alone in your own little world."

No. That's not's it. Just nobody seems to like-

"Shut up and mind your own business."

Kukai stared at me for a second as I looked away.

"I'll prove you wrong. You can't drive off everybody."

I continued walking to the temple but Kukai stopped me.

"So I'm gonna be your new best friend! I'm up for any challenge and I accept this one!"

Kukai grabbed my arm and pulled me into a hug, grabbed the camera, and snapped the picture before I could do anything. The light made me dizzy but I got over it.

"Now come on! We got a project to do!!"

I sighed. What the hell is with this guy?

I was riding my bike home that evening watching the clouds float by as if their only care in the world was if a bigger cloud got in front of them and blocked the sun.

"That was a very interesting day today, wasn't it?"

"You can say that again."

I screeched to a halt on my bike to see Sora floating out from underneath my hat.

"Out of the two of you, I thought Aya would be the one to sneak out from watching the third egg." I groaned.

Sora floated there and bit her lip.

"She did."

"WHAT?!?!"

People stared at me for my outburst but returned working after a glare to mind their own business. I started off on my bike again, agitated.

"I came to look for you so you could help find Aya but then I saw the guy and…I got interested." She said sheepishly.

"Fine. Where'd you put my third egg?"

She pointed to my head and suddenly I felt something move on my head.

I breathed in and out like the yoga lady did on the TV but it only made me feel light headed. Sora quickly moved it to my backpack.

"Well, since you're here, read over the notes Kukai sloppily wrote about the Moon goddess." She got the memo book from my small backpack with Matt from Death Note sitting upside down playing video games and smoking.

"Here goes… Mika-chan and Kukai sitting in a tree-"

"Do you want to be the first chara to see if they can breathe under water?" I asked, harshly.

"Okay, okay. Goddess Yasu, meaning tranquil. Named for her peaceful nature. Reigned over the moon and watched over night Earth. Married to Jomei, God of sun. Had no children. Was known for her intellect and beauty among other things. Some believe she died when the eclipse came. Others believe she still live. The end."

Sora put the book back and started yelling.

"Mika-chan! X-eggs again! There's only one but it's strong." Sora said worried.

"Let the guardians worry about it then."

"But I sense Aya near it too!"

My eyes widened and Sora raced in front of me. We got to a park and, in the middle of a huge fountain, was an x-egg that suddenly hatched. It spoke in a squeaky voice and started to suck up the water.

I saw that Tada-gay and Amu were already there and Ikuto was too, but on the other side next to the x-chara, smirking already chara-nari'd. (Is that right?)

"Stop this Ikuto!" Amu yelled tears about to come from her eyes. Great, another reason to hate her, she's a crybaby.

"I don't think I will." He said nonchalantly.

The x-chara started to grow bigger and bigger.

"Hey! Tada-gay! Are you gonna wait for the x-egg to get stronger or are you gonna fight?" I said walking over to them, not really caring what he says anyways.

He seemed shocked at the name and Ikuto chuckled at it. Not like he hadn't heard it before.

"I hate being small!!!" The x-chara screamed, getting louder.

"I guess your gonna wait then. Fine, I'll start. Sora, chara-nari!"

The Humpty Lock glowed a dark blue and Sora went into her egg to disappear into my chest. The feeling was entirely different from when chara-nari'd with Aya. I felt weightless and my skin felt like it was being surrounded by feathers. The feeling slowly went away as I felt wings come from my back again and floated above the ground.

My long black hair was slightly wavier than it already was and my light blue dress flowed out to mid-thigh, where it was cut on one side to show a darker blue underneath. It was long-sleeved and the top part was old Victorian style. A single white ribbon wrapped itself loosely around my waist over to both of my arms. My almost knee high dark blue boots were worn over knee-high socks, the same sky blue color the dress was. 4 silver wings projected out about twice as long as the chibi wings when I chara-changed, the two wings higher than the lower ones coming out just a smidge wider. On my neck was a black choker with the Humpty Lock hanging from the middle.

"Chara-Nari: Sky Breaker!"

Tadase looked amazed at the transformation while Amu still looked sad and angry.

A silver staff materialized in my hand as I flew over and wacked the x-chara. I'm guessing it got royally pissed because the next thing I know I was dodging water here and there!

"Mika! Come over here!"

Tadase had a crown on his head and a staff in his hand. He had chara changed and I went ver there.

"Come on Amu-chan! We can do it! Just try!" A pink chara said to her. Tadase smiled at her, looking confident now that someone else was here to help.

I stayed hovering in one spot watching as the x-chara shot out the water from its mouth.

"Holy Crown!" Tadase yelled, thrusting his staff out in front of us, creating a barrier. The water was deflected and the barrier vanished. Amu finally got the courage and finally transformed into her disgusting cheerleading outfit. She jumped into the air and I got a panty shot. Revolting! I nearly choked on my throw-up! Could it be any shorter for a 5th grader?! It's a beacon for pedophiles… maybe that's how Ikuto became friends with Amu…

Anyways, Amu and Tadase started fighting with the x-chara and I became bored with it since I wasn't fighting.

Come on Mika! They won't make it and you know it!

But its fun watching the munchkins fight, they hardly make a dent. I chuckled as they fought.

That's why we have to fight!

I came here to find Aya and she isn't here anyways.

She isn't here! I lied to get you to help, so come on!

I was enraged at Sora for yelling at me and she would here it later, but as much as I hate to think it, she is usually right.

"Shorty x-egg! Come and get me!"

That got its attention and it charged at me, shooting water simultaneously. One hit my new bike and I got mad again. I waited for it to get close and wacked it again, sending it to the ground. That helped with my anger. But you'd think it would learn how to dodge?

I drove the end of my staff into its body and it struggled to break free but couldn't. A part of my staff broke off and formed to a flute. I grabbed it and the x-chara kept discharging water slowly, shrinking in size as the water exited the body.

I put the flute close to my lips and softly blew into the instrument. The sound was beautiful and mesmerizing, gripping the x-chara and everyone's attention. The tune was similar to something I had heard of before coming here but I couldn't place it. The x-chara yawned and an egg appeared, closing itself around the chara. It slowly turned from black to white and vanished.

"That was definitely worth the wait."

Ikuto stood at the top of a light pole, still chara-nari'd, and suddenly dashed towards me with his claws out. My flute dissipated and returned to my staff. I blocked his claws with it while grabbing his other wrist and flying up into the sky.

He kept his cool and started to shake himself loose. I dug my fingernails into his arm.

"Tell me about the Humpty Lock." I said.

He grunted but kept trying to be released.

"Tell me or I will drop you so far out in the ocean, no one will ever find you!"

He stopped struggling and I stared into his eyes. He sighed.

"I guess since I don't have any other options."

"You never had any options to begin with."

I smirked at my triumph but suddenly felt the air rush at my face. That's when I realized my chara-nari had worn out. Sora flew down with us as Ikuto kept a hold on my arm.

"I'm gonna kill you when we get home Sora!"

The ground was coming at us fast when I felt Aya's chara-change kick in. I pushed away from Ikuto as Tadase's barrier stopped us from being creamed. I bounced of it and leapt for the light pole. Aya was floating there and we went home. I didn't want to deal with Amu or Tadase anymore than I already had today. The sun was setting and layered thunder clouds were at the horizon near the moon when I got home. I could already here the thunder when I finally fell asleep that night.

Fin ~

Wow, this is my longest chapter ever! 9 pages and I feel like a billion bucks!!

Again, I'm sorry it has been so long since I lost updated.

I might put up scans of my pictures for the story to make compensation to all of you.

I don't think they're good, but friends/family say they are.

Have a happy rest of summer! And remember to review! 3,322 words.
