Ichigo: This is your longest story ever Mikashi!

Me: I know!

Kashino: I'm actually very impressed Mikashi, I hope you can contiue to impress me in the sequel.

Me: Don't worry, I will. I don't own Yumeiro Patissiere or Shugo Chara! If I did, this would be a series ;D

Yumeiro Chara Doki-Doki!

Chapter 20: Moving On and Beyond!

Amu watched the blinding light spread far over the campus. It burst in a fusion on black and white feathers. "What the..." Lulu whispered. Kashino and Ichigo emerged from the light hand in hand, their free arm up in the air.

The 2 large X-eggs looked up in confusion, "Useless?" A black and white feather softly touched its surface. The X-egg lit up so brightly it blinded Amu, Ikuto, Hanabusa, Andou and Lulu. The heart eggs were in a large cloud. They lifted up and circled around Kashino and Ichigo, and were soon joined by the other large amount of heart eggs. Ichigo and Kashino looked happily at the hearts eggs. Slowly Ichigo blew gently at the heart's eggs and they scattered, returning to their owners who began to come to. Lulu watched as two feathers, one white and one black softly landed on the palm of her hand. She felt a cold chill run down her spine. She fell to the ground, shining brightly. The X-egg emerged from her turning into a heart's egg. Lulu returned to normal as well.

Everyone undid their character transformations. Kashino picked Ichigo up in a victory hug, "We did it!" He cheered.

"We did!" Ichigo smiled, pressing her lips to his happily.

Kashino blushed, "I-Ichigo! That was our first kiss!"

She laughed, "It was wasn't it?"

Lulu stood up, "Hey um... Amano-san?"

Ichigo looked at Lulu who looked nervous, "What is it Lulu?" She asked gently.

"What you said earlier... About being alone... I..." She swallowed, "I realized just how much I was hurting everyone for my own selfishness," She looked at both Ichigo and Amu, "I'm really sorry."

Both girl smiled and tilted their heads to one side, "No problem!"

Lulu's eyes brightened, "I'm going to head back to France," She looked at Ikuto, "Ikuto... I'm really sorry for the way I treated you, blackmailing you..."

Ikuto nodded, "It's alright, just never do it again." He brought Amu closer to him, "You never mess with me and my Amu."

Lulu laughed nervously, "Right right..." She turned to Kashino, "Makoto-kun, I'm really sorry to you too. I really used you and I'm sorry. Can you every forgive me?"

Kashino's face was blank. He released his grip from Ichigo and walked over to Lulu, he raised his hand. Lulu braced herself for a hit. He put his hand up and gave her a thumb up and a gentle smile, "Don't worry about it, it's all better now isn't it?"

She smiled and gave him a friendly hug, "Thank you Makoto-kun."

Lulu looked at them all, "I'll be going now! Bye!" She ran toward the door and then she disappeared down the stairs. Amu had a serious look on her face, like she was thinking of something important.

"What're you thinking of?" Ikuto asked her, taking her into his arms.

"N-nothing, I just... I think I need to call Tadase."

Ikuto raised his eyebrows, "What's that all about?"

She smiled, "Nothing you need to worry about." She reached up and kissed him on the lips.

"Amu, you realize that was our first kiss right?" He smirked.

She returned the smirk, "Yes it was you pervert."

Doki! ~

A few days later Ichigo was sitting by the lake. It was a beautiful day, the sun was shining and the wind blew lazily. Vanilla was by Ichigo's side, pacing back and forth. "Neh Ichigo?"

"What is it Vanilla?" Ichigo asked.

"I received a message from the sweets queen the other day."

"Oh really? What did it say?"

Vanilla bit her small lip, "She heard about character transformation."

Ichigo smiled, "Really?" She noticed her spirit's downcast face, "what's wrong?"

"The queen wants to investigate character transformation, she wants Chocolat, Caramel, Cafe and I to come back to the sweets kingdom for research."

"For how long?"

"About a year or so." She whispered sadly.

Ichigo smiled softly, "You know what? I want you to go for it, it's an amazing opportunity for you and I want you to take it."

Vanilla nodded, "I'm going to miss you Ichigo."

"I'll miss you too, hurry back after okay?" She smiled.

Vanilla laughed, "I will!"

Doki! ~

Chocolat finished giving Kashino the news, "Is that so?" Kashino asked smiling.

"You're not mad?" Chocolat asked.

"Why would I be?" He raised his eyebrows.

"I just thought that you might..." She shook her head, "nevermind."

"Have fun okay?" Kashino asked, holding up his pinkie finger.

Chocolat laughed and wrapped her small hand around pinkie finger, "I will."

Doki! ~

"I don't have a problem with that Amu-chan, if they're capable of that much I don't mind."

Amu smiled as she talked into the phone, "And your okay with Ikuto and I..."

Tadase sighed over the phone, but his voice sounded happy, "I'm happy for you two."

Amu laughed, "Good! I'll see you in a few days alright? Tell Rima, Yaya and Nagihiko I said hi!"

"Sure thing Amu-chan, I'll tell Kukia and Utau too."

"Okay, bye!" Amu closed the phone and smiled, she was excited of what the future would hold.

Doki! ~

Ichigo and Kashino gazed at the starlit sky from their blanket, "Isn't it beautiful Kashino?" Ichigo asked.

Packing away the rest of their small picnic Kashino smiled, "Yes, it's beautiful."

Ichigo sighed, "I can't believe Amu's leaving next week."

"I know it's going to be weird without her around."

"Yeah."

Kashino sat beside his girlfriend and wrapped his arm around her, "I love you Ichigo."

She smiled, "I love you too Makoto." She leaned in before a familiar pink headed girl interrupted.

"Hey love birds!" She called happily.

Kashino rolled his eyes, "Hey Amu, what's so important that you have to interrupt out date?"

"It's very important." Amu nodded her head.

"What is Amu?" Ichigo asked.

"Well, I saw your fighting skill and power when we were battling Lulu. I talked with the head of the guardians and I was wondering... Did you want to come back to Seiyo with Ikuto and me? You could be official Seiyo gaurdians!"

Ichigo and Kashino's eyes widened, they looked at each other than back at Amu, "You want us to go back with you?"

"That's right!" Amu smiled.

"But... Vanilla and Chocolat went back to the sweets kingdom." Kashino said, "We couldn't character transform..."

Amu smiled mischievously, "Stranger things have happened."

Ichigo and Kashino exchanged another look, "You know what?" Ichigo replied smiling, "I think we might just go with you."

Doki! ~

Ichigo tightened her grip on her suitcase handle, "This it it!" She whispered to Kashino.

He smiled back at her, "Yup!"

They waved to Andou and Hanabusa. They exchanged hugs, "We'll see you again soon Ichigo-chan, Kashino." Hanabusa said a smile on his face.

"That's right!" Andou laughed, "We'll see you again!"

"Bye guys!" Kashino and Ichigo waved goodbye for the last time.

They walked out of the gated campus of St. Marie. "You guys ready?" Amu asked, she had on her Seiyo uniform and she had her luggage. Ikuto was beside her with his.

"We're ready." They smiled.

They all boarded the bus, Ichigo stared out the window watching the school disappear behind the trees. She turned to Kashino, "We're all moving forward." She smiled.

Kashino nodded, "To have new beginnings."

Ichigo grinned, "Yup! Atrashii Hajiimari."

Yumeiro Chara Doki-Doki: The End.

Me: Thank you so much for reading! Thank you for your lovely reviews and everything!

Next Time in the sequel: Yumeiro Chara Atrashii Hajiimari!

So this is Seiyo Academy? Ichigo wondered, staring at the equally large school. She fingered the skirt of her new uniform, a white shirt, red tie, black long sleeve and red checkered skirt. Amu had even let her borrow a pair of her red checkered legwarmers. "Do I look alright Kashino?"

Kashino smiled. He was in the boys uniform, a black long sleve, white shirt, blue tie and blue checkered shorts that went to his knees. "You look beautiful," he smiled.

She blushed, "T-thanks."

Amu ran up to them, "Ichigo, Kashino! Before we go, I want to give you these!" She presented them with gaurdian capes. One red, one blue.

"What are these?" Ichigo aksed putting it on.

"An official gaurdian cape!" Amu smiled.

"Why aren't you wearing one?" Kashino asked, pulling on the material.

"Does it matter?" She asked, playfully sticking out her tongue.

"Guess not." He laughed.

Amu grabbed their hands, "Okay! Here we go!"

I hope everyone's looking forward to the sequel! :D
