Hi everyone! I thought our characters would like a little vacation, so in the next chapter, they're going to America!

Rima: Why do we have to go? I hate traveling!

Me: You have to go. I ran out of ideas!

Rima: What about my special condition? I don't even know what it is!

Me: That will be in the next chapter, but in this chapter you will see some signs of it.

Rima: But that's unfair! (pout)

(Nagi enters the Author's own personal writing room)

Nagi: Um… Kei, I think you should get along with the story. (Nagi points to the calendar.)

Me: AH!! School's on Monday! (June 15) I only have a day to write this! (The day I am writing this is June 14. It doesn't mean I'll put it up it on June 14.)

Nagi: (whispers to Rima) Why is her room so purple?

Rima: I don't know.

Me: You don't know what, Rima?

Rima: Nagi's asking why your room is so purple.

Me: Oh, cuz I like purple and baby pink and sky blue.

Nagi: Why is this purple and not pink or blue.

Me: Cuz purple's my favorite. Now I must type…

"Yay! We're going on a trip!" Yaya said all hyper.

I thought they were going on a trip. I was going to fake sick.

I grumbled to myself. "Why do I have to go?" I mumbled to myself.

"That's right, Rima doesn't like traveling." Nadeshiko pointed out.

Everyone looked at me. Great, now I can't fake sick.

"We'll need at chaperone though." Tadase said. "Why? We're big enough!" Yaya whined. That whiner.

"The school needs us to have one. Don't forget our purpose of going to America is to meet their Guardians of ________ (any high school you know)" Kairi said.

"Why don't we let Ikuto go with us?" Lulu said. "No, Ikuto-koi has college classes to go to." Amu said then sighed.

"Why don't we ask Tsukasa-san to go with us?" Nagihiko proposed.

"No, he's to busy writing a new book. Besides he's been loony these past few days." Tadase said.

"Who's become loony these days?!" a voice was heard behind us. Tadase turned around and saw a really mad Tsukasa standing behind him.

"Well, I'm sorry if I'm loony, so I came to tell you that your chaperone will be Nikaido-sensei!" Tsukasa said and stormed of.

"He's fine. He's fine cuz we can sneak out or do something behind his back." Utau said and looked at Kukai who gave her a thumbs up and a flashy grin.

We all sweat-dropped, they were the same as always.

"So, we'll meet at the airport on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Our flight is at 4:00." Tadase said.

"Why do we have to be so early?" Yaya whined again. I wonder how Kairi lives with it.

I looked at Kairi, it turns out he has ear-plugs. That cheater.

"So that we can check-in and go through so many security checks and things like that." Kairi said.

So he can still hear us.

"We're not allowed to bring food right? What if they think we are by bringing our Shugo Chara eggs? Will they confiscate it?" Amu asked.

"No need to worry about that. The head of the security has a Shugo Chara. If we get caught, he'll know what they are. My parents know him too." Lulu said.

"Ok, how long will we stay there again?" I asked.

"A week." Nagi said. "What?! I'll never survive!" I shouted.

"Of course you will." Nadeshiko said. "How about the time you last traveled with your parents? You stayed in China for three weeks."

"I was eight!" I said. Stares were thrown at me.

Nagi and Nadeshiko sweat-dropped. "You guys do know her well." Kukai said.

Nagi and Nadeshiko nodded.

"Pack clothes worth a week and a bathing suit okay?" Tadase said. "Why a bathing suit?" Yaya whined again!

"The guardians there are taking us to their own private swimming pool and they're also giving us a tour of L.A." Tadase said.

"Cool," Utau said.

"But there's a slight problem, how do we speak their language?" Nadeshiko said.

"That is a problem." Lulu said.

"Let me help you with that!" a voice said.

It sounded familiar.

The voice inside my head! That's the voice!

My egg floated from my bag to in front of me.

It popped open and a purple-haired chara came out.

She had short hair and was wearing yellow barrette with a little closed book on it.

She had a yellow mini skirt and a purple tank-top.

She had yellow knee-high boots with purple buckles on them.

She had a lot of Yellow and Purple on her!

"Hello, I'm Sara. Nice to meet you!" she said in flawless English.

"What did you say?" I asked. "I said, hello, I'm Sara. Nice to meet you!" She said in Japanese this time.

"Rima-chan, you had a new chara egg?" Nagi asked surprised.

"Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you." I said.

"I was born from Rima's feeling to be more capable and to be able to study and the such. Also one other feeling I cannot tell you all." She said with a wink.

"Capable huh, sounds about right." I said.

"Now that the language problem is over, everybody should go home and pack." Tadase said.

We all stood up and walked out if the Royal Garden.

I walked home and went up t my room to start packing.

My parents already knew about this America trip so they laid out some of my clothes on my bed ready for me to choose from.

I picked whatever I got my hands on. Or in simpler words, I didn't choose. I just got anything my hands touched and put them in my suitcase. Neatly, of course.

When I finished, I went to my closet in search of a bathing suit that I will be able to wear there in America. I also picked a pink sundress.

I put those two things in my suitcase and looked for decent slippers and sandals to wear.

I picked some yellow flip-flops and some blue ballet flats.

When I looked outside, I finally noticed that the moon was up and it was almost time for dinner.

"Rima! Dinner's ready." My mom called. "I'll be right there!" I called back.

"Sara, Kusukusu will tell you all you need to know about the guardians and other charas. Okay?" I told her.

"Yes, Miss Rima." She said.

From my knowledge, she just said 'Yes, Rima-san'

"That's exactly what I said." Sara said with a wink. "Oh my gosh, you're a mind reader!"

"Yes, I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner." Sara said. I nodded.

"We have to keep this a secret from everyone. It's for the best. It will be our little secret." I told Sara and Kusukusu.

They both nodded and Kusukusu started her lecture on everything that happened.

"Kusukusu start from when I transferred to Seiyo." I told her.

I went downstairs and found myself looking at my parents at the table, crying.

"What's wrong?" I asked them.

"Our little Rima is all grown up!" my mother wailed. "And now you're gonna be spending a whole week away from us!" my father continued.

"It's only a week." I said. "Besides, it's not like I'm not coming back!"

I took my seat and said "Itadakimasu" and began eating.

My parents followed and started eating as well.

After I finished eating, I excused myself and went up to my room.

When I got there, I saw Kusukusu and Sara playing games.

I saw from the score that Kusukusu frequently lost. Must be because Sara reads her mind.

"Yes, that's right." Sara said.

"When we're around the guardians, whisper your comments about our thoughts, okay?" I told her. She nodded.

"How did you finish telling her the things about my past so quickly?" I asked Kusukusu.

"She got all my memories from when I was born till now." Kusukusu said.

"What? I don't understand." "It means, I got all her memories from when she was born till now." Sara explained to me.

"Ok… you can do that?" I asked her. "Yeah, it's my specialty." Sara told me.

"Keep this a secret from the guardians too." Sara nodded.

"Now, let's get to sleep." I told everyone.

Sara and Kusukusu floated to their eggs and I went to the bathroom to change into my PJ's.

When I went out, I found Rhythm trying to sneak out of my room quietly.

"Rhythm." I said. He turned around and stiffened. "What are you doing here?" I asked him.

Sara and Kusukusu floated to my side.

"I just wanted to sat hi, I'll be on my way now." Rhythm said and flew out the window.

I looked at Kusukusu and Sara. "What did he really want?"

Kusukusu and Sara pointed to a piece of paper on my desk. Beside it, there was a white rose.

I walked to it and opened the folded piece of paper.

It said:

Dear Rima,

Meet me at the park at 12:00 midnight. I have something to give to you.

Nagihiko

Nagihiko? Why would he want me to go to the park at midnight?

"Sara?" "He wants to be the first one to give you your birthday present." Sara said.

"Gosh, I completely forgot it was my birthday tomorrow." I said.

I looked at the time. It was 10:00.

I have 2 hours.

I went to my closet and started to pick my outfit.

It was kinda cold, so I wore a pink long-sleeved dress.

I grabbed my handbag and stepped closer to my window.

"Sara, you said I could be capable right? Will I be capable to jump down from here?" I asked Sara.

"Yes, supposedly." Sara said.

"Ok, let's try it." I told her.

"Chara Change!" Sara said.

A book on a barrette appeared on my hair.

When you look at the book closely, you can actually see lots of little hearts all over the cover.

"Let's do it!" I said.

I closed my eyes and jumped. I felt the ground but the thing was that I went up into the air again and never came back down.

I opened my eyes carefully.

I saw the city below me. "What the heck?!" I screamed.

"Rima, you're flying!" Kusukusu exclaimed.

"Let's just go to the park already!" I said. Sara giggled.

"We're already here." Sara said.

I looked around. We were at the park. I faced the ground until finally my feet touched the floor.

I checked my watch; 11:45 it said.

Fifteen more minutes.

I walked around the park for some time when I heard something.

A girl singing, but it was a language I didn't understand.

"It's English." Sara said.

She must have heard Sara because she stopped and looked at me.

"Hello." She said.

"Hello. Who are you?" I said.

"I'm sorry I can't understand what you are saying. I don't speak Japanese." She said.

"Sara." She nodded. I Chara changed again and started talking.

"Who are you?" I said. "I am Jenny. Nice to meet you." She said.

"I'm Rima. Why are you here so late?" I asked her.

"I was supposed to go to Seiyo High School, but I got lost this afternoon." She said.

I laughed. "What's wrong?" she asked me.

"I am a student of Seiyo, but it's on the other side of town!" I exclaimed.

She looked at me disbelief written all over her face.

"What are you doing here so late?" she asked me.

"I was supposed to meet someone here." I told her.

I checked my watch. It was 12:00.

"Oh no." I said.

"Please come with me." I told her.

I walked away and she followed me.

I walked around the park until I found him.

"Nagi!" I called out.

He turned to face me.

There was someone with him as well.

Jenny, who was behind me, ran to that person.

"Peter! Where were you?" she asked.

"Where was I? Where were YOU!" the man shouted.

"I'm sorry if my sister caused you trouble." He told me.

"You can speak Japanese?" I asked him.

He nodded.

"That would have helped if you were with Jenny when I found her. She only knows one word, hello." I said putting my hands on my hips.

"You can speak English?" he asked me. "Sara can." I told him. "Whose Sara?" he asked me.

I pointed to my charas. "Oh! You must one of the Seiyo guardians!" he exclaimed.

"Thanks for pointing out the obvious!" I told him.

Nagihiko walked to me. "Here, the purpose of you coming here." He said and handed me a box.

I opened it and saw a beautiful pendant.

It was and anchor with pink gems. (I'll post a link in my profile a few days from now.)

"It's so pretty." I told him.

He took it from me and put it around my neck.

"Thanks, it's my first birthday present. It's what you intended right?" I told him.

He looked stunned but nodded.

"I think Peter and Jenny should spend the night at one of our houses." I said.

Peter nodded and told Jenny what I said in English.

She nodded too. "That would really help." She said.

"Ok, so Peter will stay at my house and Jenny will stay at Rima's since she knows how to speak English." Nagihiko said.

"Correction, Sara knows how to speak English." I said and smiled.

Again Peter translated. "I will be in your care Rima" she said to me.

"Of course. We should get to know each other better." I told her.

She nodded.

"Good night, Nagi." I said and kissed him on the cheek.

"Goodnight Rima." He said.

"My house is far, so it's better to fly there." I told her.

She gave me a puzzled look.

"Sara, do you think you can make Jenny-san fly as well?" I asked Sara.

"Yes, you're capable of doing that." Sara replied.

"From girls that cannot fly to girls who can, CHARA CHANGE!" Sara said.

"Ready Jenny? First jump, then you will fly, just follow me okay?" I told her.

She nodded and we jumped into the sky. She gave a thrill of joy!

"This is fun!" she told me.

I smiled.

We started our descent. We arrived at my house and we went inside.

Then, I found parents looking at me with worried eyes.

"Rima, where were you?" they asked.

"I had to go out. It was important. Then I ran into Jenny." I said pointing to her.

"She was lost and she couldn't find her uncle's house, so I told her to come with me and we'll go look for her uncle's house tomorrow." I told my parents.

"Please let her stay." I begged.

"If mom says 'it's okay', then it's okay." My dad said. "Then, it's okay." said my mom smiling.

"Thanks." I said then I led Jenny to my room. (Okay, when they speak English it will be in the same font okay? Not in italic anymore. It's tiring to keep on changing fonts)

The rest of the night was uneventful, but I know, tomorrow will be a new adventure.

---o---o---o---

Finally it's finished. Enjoy!

Here's my episode 87 rant. It's my first time doing a rant so sorry.

OMG! They found about Lulu! Dia's coming out the next chapter too! I'm so excited! I wonder if Amu will tell the others when the next guardian meeting takes place. I wonder what the others will say. Lulu and Amu were starting to become friends already and in this episode Lulu smiles a lot so she likes being with Amu. But no, Nana had to say it out loud that they were the ones extracting the ? eggs! And the Banana Yokan, I wonder how it tastes like. It's supposed to be good right? Since Nana ate sooooo many! A whole trashcan full of the Banana Yokan wrappers! That's extreme! I can't eat that many at all! Why do they have to let them find out? It could have been more ? eggs and they'd discover it when Lulu was in the scene. It would have made the story longer but it would mean more fillers! DX I hate fillers! DX When will Ikuto come back? I miss him! I wanna know if he's finally gonna get free from Easter. I want him to be free! I wonder what Dia's specialty is. Maybe it's singing cuz she has a microphone, but maybe it's something else like dancing or something. And I wonder what will happen in the fight. In the trailer, Lulu takes one jewel from her pocket; I wonder what she'll do with it. Maybe she'll be the one to wear it! I really can't wait for the next episode!

Sorry if that was long and pointless. I needed to say my feelings somewhere. Writing your feelings or typing it really helps. It makes you feel better rather than keeping it to yourself.

I'm sorry if it's bad; I had only a day to write it! School is tomorrow! I will never survive!

RnR please!
