Hey guys! The results of the last chapter are in and Arashi's lucky girl has been decided (Note: You will not find out by checking the reviews for some people PM-ed me their vote and others just messaged me on FB and MSN)
I tried to make this chapter more exciting for you guys so you'll be satisfied for a while. There are a lot of anime references. I will mention them in the ending Author's note.
BUT!
If you want to take a guess at what the references are then ignore the ending note and leave your answer in a review!
Five young teenagers, all lined up with floating things beside them. Staring up at what was in front of them, gulping in fear and gazing up at the monstrous nightmare that is:
"An amusement park."
The five all gave a nod in unison. Four of these people had never seen this amusement park but for Amu it had some significance. She'd been here many times with Ikuto, she'd fought with Ikuto and she'd even been here with Tadase... And Ikuto.
But of course these new Guardians wouldn't know about that. This park would just serve as the battleground for their first fight. Hopefully it wouldn't be their last.
Amu and the four new Guardians: Arashi, Suki, Ryu and Yukiko, headed into the ominous park, wondering what awaited them within...
Deep into the Amusement Park, stood on the tip of the stripy tent was Sayashi. All five of them shivered in fear at the cold Queen. Was this girl really right for the position of the Queen? The previous Queens, Nadeshiko and Rima, would have never pulled a stunt like this. Rima may have been cold at first but she wasn't evil and Nadeshiko would never pull a stunt like this in a million years-this girl was very un-Queen like.
"Welcome... Tonight the Guardians will be rid of once and for all. Then there will be no-one to stop us..." Sayashi smirked.
"Sayashi! Why are you doing this? And what do you mean 'us'?" Yukiko yelled.
Sayashi smirked at the young Joker, she raised her arms and closed her eyes and...
Amu and the Guardians gasped as Sayashi exploded into a giant horde of...
"X-Characters?" Amu gasped in confusion.
"Yes..." The X-Characters chorused. "You've seen what happens when X-Eggs join together but not X-Characters. With the power of X-Characters and this..." Sayashi held up a sparkling necklace that Amu recognised to be the magical jewellery that Lulu had used a few years back. "We've taken this form with the mission to get rid of the Guardians once and for all..."
So Sayashi wasn't real, she was just the incarnation of X-characters and magical jewellery. So the X-Characters that made Sayashi formed back together into the blank faced Queen who was now finally showing some emotion. But it was rage, depression, fear- all the negative emotions that X-Characters stood for.
"Now it's time to be rid of the stupid Guardians. Starting with you, Yukiko." Sayashi growled.
Then she sent a jet of dark energy at Yukiko screaming the X-Characters famous phrase 'Nothing' as she did. But she didn't say it in Sayashi's normal voice, she screamed it in the voice that the X-Characters have.
Then time seemed to slow down as the jet of dark energy shot out at Yukiko. Suki gasped and covered her mouth, Ryuhei pulled her out of the way and began to run up to save Yukiko but he would obviously never make it in time. No-one could. Ryuhei felt helpless: he was meant to be a hero. Suki felt guilty: she was meant to be Yukiko's friend and Arashi felt like he had to help. But why? He never felt motivated to do anything.
Then a bright light began to shine and Arashi began to glow slightly. He realised what was going on, he smirked as he held up his index fingers and thumbs and did the obligatory routine.
"Boku no kokoro... Un-lock!"
Then his clothes disappeared and were replaced with his transformation clothes. He wore a lab coat like Takeo and he took off his Takeo-like transformation glasses as his attractive pose for his transformation.
"Chara Nari: Cyber Saviour!"
Then he landed in front of Yukiko and he put his hands in front of him and it somehow deflected Sayashi's attack.
"How is he deflecting that attack?" Suki asked.
"Firewalls duh!" Smiled Takeo as he appeared in a spirit form.
"Wait I thought that was computer stuff?" Ran asked.
"It is!" Takeo beamed.
"So that's Arashi's dream? Computer stuff?" Asked a very eager Miki.
"Arashi's sparkle comes from computers. Computers make him shine and he wants to spread that shine to everyone." Dia explained.
"Yuh-huh." Arashi panted, struggling to form a sentence. "You gonna change or what?"
The question was directed at Yukiko who was dazzled just by the sight of the shining saviour in front of her.
"O-oh." She managed to say.
Then she held her thumbs and index fingers up to her chest. She flicked them as she repeated the following words:
"Atashi no kokoro... Un-lock!"
Then her clothes disappeared and on her reappeared some new clothes. She wore an anime-styled sailor outfit and pretty much every cliché anime and gaming item here and there. A cat tail appeared from behind, yellow fluffy rabbit-like ears with black tips, an armband that said 'Brigade leader', a locket that looked like the humpty lock but actually had a golden eye on it which seemed to look like a familiar symbol from a popular show based around children's card games and her hair was tied up into two high pigtails, looking like the mascot of a company that revolves around computerised voices and robots.
"Chara Nari: Gem Otaku!"
"Eh? An Otaku?" Yukiko exclaimed. "I'm not an Otaku!"
"Well it's really the best way to describe you. You're not a full Otaku. This all comes from your love of anime and gaming." Misa reassured her as she reappeared in a wispy, spirit form.
"Come on help me out here..." Arashi panted weakly.
"Okay!" Yukiko nodded vigorously.
She jumped up and a magical girl staff appeared in her hand. She pointed it outwards, blocking the attack.
"Magical sceptre!" She cried.
Arashi breathed out a sigh of relief. Yukiko tried to maintain her guard but Sayashi's power was very overwhelming and Yukiko couldn't keep it up for long.
"Yukiko! Don't do this!" Arashi yelled.
"I'm... Fine... My king..." She panted.
"No you're not! Get out of there! You're not strong enough!" Arashi pleaded.
"Wrong... My lord... I am strengthened by the support of the Guardians." She smiled.
Suki gasped slightly and Ryu smiled at the kind words of their Joker. Suki clutched her hand to her chest and looked down. The feeling she was experiencing... It was new to her.
"You guys... Are my friends..." Yukiko smiled weakly as she looked back at her newfound friends.
"A friend?" Suki whispered.
Ryu and Suki's chests began to glow and they both transformed. Suki looked like Yuzuki, her Shugo Chara who seemed to be dressed as a witch but with some slight modifications. She wore a dark blue sleeveless dress that came halfway down her thighs and turned into a see-through material that covered the rest of her legs. Her hat was light blue to match her cape and her hair was down.
"Chara Nari: Ominous Explorer!"
Ryu didn't look that fancy. He just looked like a mash-up of superheroes. He looked kind of like Batman but also like Superman and possibly a few other superheroes in there.
"Chara Nari: Super Ryu!"
"He said it again..." Miki facepalmed.

The cat tail... Is just a random cliché anime item though I've only ever seen one once in Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu but still it's cliché. The yellow, fluffy rabbit like ears with black tips... Come on guys, you should know. The armband is from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, the golden eye is Yu-Gi-Oh (and so is the friendship speech). The computerized voices and robots is referring to Vocaloid (not an anime but still epic) also Yukiko said "My lord" referring to Black Butler I think even though I don't watch it.
Thanks and please, please please review! It'll make the next chapter come out faster!
