Photobooks: Chapter 13.
"Lalala~" sang Jin as he looked for the new headquarters of Ragnarok. He then spotted a girl with brown hair walking over to a black door. He grinned, and walked up to her. "Hello~" he sang. The girl turned around.
"Who are you?" asked Yobio. Jin's happy face dropped. She didn't remember him?
"Yobio-chan? Don't you remember me?" asked Jin. Yobio rolled her eyes.
"How could I remember you when I don't even know you?" asked Yobio. Jin fake cried.
"The world is doomed! Yobio-chan doesn't remember her best childhood-friend anymore!" he cried. Yobio just stood there, feeling awkward.
"Just tell me how you know me, and I may remember" she said. Jin smiled, and stood up from his position.
"When you turned five, you were bullied by some boys. So, being the nice guy I was, I scared them away. And then we became best friends forever~" he sang. Yobio rolled her eyes again.
"I don't remember anything after I turned six…" she said. Jin's face turned serious.
"It's because you were possessed by Dark Gaia at that time, Yobio-chan" he told. Yobio widened her eyes.
"H-How do you know that I'm… Him?" asked Yobio in fear.
"Yobio-chan, as I told you before, I was your childhood-friend. Everything that made you sad back then, you told me. I'm sure you remember your mother-"
"Don't speak of her" said Yobio. Jin smiled, and nodded. "I want to forget all of that. But the nightmares still come… every night…" said Yobio.
"I told you back then to go to the doctor, right?" asked Jin.
"And I think I told you back then that I hate doctors…" said Yobio.

"Who is that boy, talking with Yobio-san?" asked Ichi. Sora grinned.
"Maybe her love~" she said. Ichi shook her head.
"No. She feels awkward being around him, I can see that. He knows her, but she doesn't know him" said Ichi. Sora looked at Ichi.
"How do you know?" asked Sora. Ichi shrugged.
"My mind" she answered.
-x-
"What should we do now? I know that Kouhei send some men to look where we are" said Luka. Meiko put her hand under her chin.
"We must attack soon as we can" said Meiko. "But, we don't have enough power"
"Nya~" said a voice suddenly. Meiko turned around.
"Neko?" asked Meiko. "What are you doing here?" asked Meiko. Neko scratched her cheek.
"I just had a suggestion" she said. Meiko nodded.
"Tell me" she said.
"What if we use Dark Gaia's powers?" asked Neko. Everyone looked shocked at this.
"Neko, you do know the risks, huh? Dark Gaia had evil intensions. We only can use Light Gaia's powers, but we don't know who she is" said Kaito.
"Then, if we make Complete Gaia?" asked Neko.
"There is a possibility that we can make Complete Gaia, but we don't know how to do it" said Meiko. "We just prepare the attack on Kouhei's headquarters" Meiko said while turning around back to the other members. Neko sighed.
"Okay then. I will be on patrol then" said Neko, and jumped out the window.
"You know, Neko-chan was right. We can make Complete Gaia with the right things" said Miku. Then Haku stood up. Everyone looked at her.
"We can make Yobio mad. She would turn into Dark Gaia. And if Light Gaia is beside her, in human form, she will turn into Light Gaia to calm her. If someone attacks them, they would get mad and turn into Complete Gaia together" told Haku. Meiko thought for a second.
"Thanks, Haku. I hope we can use that method on them with the attack" said Meiko.

"So, Yobio-chan~" began Jin. Yobio looked at him.
"What?" she asked.
"Can I join you?" he asked. Yobio thought for a moment.
"We first must ask Meiko about this. Follow me, will you?" asked Yobio. Jin nodded. Everything was going as planned… "Meiko?" yelled Yobio as she burst into a room.
"Yobio, we're busy with a meeting. Are you done with the patrol?" asked Meiko. Yobio rolled her eyes, and nodded.
"This guy wants to join us" said Yobio. Meiko looked at him.
"Ah, then he will have to do the test, just like the others" said Meiko.
"Yay~" yelled Jin. Yobio rolled her eyes.
"Then, I will show you around" said Yobio.
-x-
"What are you doing?" asked Takama from behind Sora and Ichi. Sora looked up.
"We're spying on Yobio and this other guy" said Sora as she continued to look at the two.
"Let me look too" he said. Sora nodded, and made place for Takama.
"You know, that guy is looking at Yobio like he's in love with her" said Sora. Ichi looked closely at the guy.
"Yeah. He must fall for her…" Ichi said.
"Oh! They're walking away! Let's follow them!" Takama suddenly said. Ichi and Sora nodded.
-x-
"And, here are the doctors, in case you get hurt or something" said Yobio as she pointed to a big white door.
"Ah, thanks for this, Yobio-chan!" said Jin. Yobio nodded.
"One thing, Jin" said Yobio. Jin looked at her with a smile. "Why did you join us?" asked Yobio a bit suspicious.
"To get closer to you~" sang Jin as he tightly hugged Yobio.
"J-Jin…! A-Air…!" Yobio managed to say. Jin quickly let go.
"Ah, sorry Yobio-chan~" he said. Yobio rolled her eyes.
"Well, now you know where you have to go when you do something stupid, I'll leave then" said Yobio. Jin looked at her.
"Where are you going?" asked Jin. Yobio just threw her scarf around her neck and walked off. Jin slapped his forehead. "Troublesome girl. But she's cute when she's like that" said Jin with a smile, and walked away.
-x-
"D-Did he just hugged her?" asked Kiba suddenly from behind.
"Where did you come from?" asked Sora.
"Ah, from my room. I was still sleeping" said Kiba. "But, who's that?" asked Kiba.
"We don't know. Let's talk to him. He's alone now" said Ichi.
"Oi! You!" yelled Sora as she ran up to Jin. Jin looked up. "Who are you?" asked Sora.
"Ah, new people! My name is Jin! Jin Shin Kibum!" said Jin.
"My name is Tsukine Sora! And these are my friends Sonohara Ichi, Akine Kiba and Yoshimaru Takama!" said Sora. Jin smiled.
"Nice to meet you!" said Jin.
-x-
"Ah, Yobio" said Yone as she saw Yobio walking past her. She glared at her, and Yobio glared back.
"What do you want?" asked Yobio. Yone shrugged.
"I don't trust the new guy that much" said Yone. Yobio looked at Yone with a confused look.
"Why?" asked Yobio. Yone rolled her eyes.
"Don't you feel it too? That scary aura around him?" asked Yone, a bit shocked. Yobio thought for a moment.
"Actually, yes. But he said he was my childhood-friend, and I trust him, because he had evidence. He knows I'm Dark Gaia" said Yobio. Yone sighed.
"But still…" began Yone. "You have to be more-"
"Don't tell me what to do" said Yobio with a cold glare. She then walked away. Yone just rolled her eyes.
-x-
"So, you came here to join us?" asked Sora. Jin nodded.
"Yeah! But also to get closer to Yobio-chan~" Jin said. Everyone widened their eyes.
"Do you… like her?" asked Sora. Jin nodded proudly with a smile.
"I don't really like her, I love her!" said Jin happily. Sora just coughed.
"Why do you… love her?" asked Sora.
"She is different than the other girls, I think! She is also very cute when she's mad, and I am her childhood-friend since… forever!" exclaimed Jin as he threw his arms in the air.
"Ah… I understand!" said Ichi, suddenly thinking about Kouhei.
"But, you know? Yobio-chan still doesn't accept me~" whined Jin.
"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Sora.
"She thinks I'm getting in her way!" said Jin. Sora rolled her eyes.
"She is just being grouchy again. She gets like that once in a while" told Sora. Jin's face brightened up.
"Ah, then I don't have to worry!" said Jin happy.
-x-
"Ah, Yobio! You're here!" said Yoji behind Yobio. Yobio stood up. "Let's begin the training, shall we? Ai-chan is here also!" said Yoji. Yobio's face brightened up.
"Hello, Yobio-chan!" said Ai, standing next to Yoji.
"Ai! Are you actually okay with this?" asked Yobio. Ai nodded with a smile.
"If it's for you and for me, then I'm okay with it" she said. Yobio smiled and hugged her.
"Thanks, Ai" said Yobio. Ai smiled, and hugged her back.
Inspire-chan (2012): Ah! I forgot to update again! I'm so sorry! Nowadays, I don't get good inspiration anymore, so it's harder for me to write a chapter T^T. The attack is going to start after… 6 or 7 chapters. Then, the sequel comes, and then a special, which I don't know the name yet. Maybe… Words? Letters? Or something related to Photobooks… Photos? Who knows? (:
Ah, about the sequel. If you don't want your character to participate, just tell me. Because I thought it would be fun if the same characters in PB would participate in Clocks too. Or, maybe I would add new characters? Like it's set 20 years after Photobooks? Whoa. That would be cool. And, I'm trying to draw some things for Photobooks, but I can't draw anymore, so suddenly! Ah, could you help me…? (:
If you have any questions, please ask me, and I will be happy to answer them! Also, if you don't understand something, I will explain it to you!
