Authors Note: I just wanted to point out that some things I explain in my fan fiction may be pretty obvious to most Full Moon fans. This is because I'm writing it like someone is just hearing about Full Moon for the first time. Anyway, hope you like!

Chapter 2: The Letter

Beep! Beep! A loud noise interrupted Mitsuki's dreams. She groaned, turning away from it and telling herself that if she could just block it out she could go back to sleep.

Beep! Beep! The noise was persistent. After a last failed attempt to block out the sound by holding a pillow over her ears, Mitsuki decided she must admit defeat.

Slowly she opened her eyes and glanced at her clock. "Ah! It's already that late?" She jumped up, her braids flying in her face.

She glared as Meroko. "You could've woken me up!" Meroko, completely ignoring the comment said, "You better hurry. Takuto's waiting outside."

Mitsuki looked in the mirror and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "I'm going to go change", she announced, and left for the bathroom.

When she returned, Meroko was looking extremely bored. "Why do I always have to be the one who stays home?" she complained. "You guys leave me here for hours stuck with your mean old grandmother why you go off and have fun!"

Mitsuki sighed. "Meroko, you really don't have to say such mean things about my grandmother. And besides, you know why you have to stay here."

This was not the first time Meroko had complained. In order to make sure Mitsuki's grandmother didn't get suspicious, Meroko used her "Mero Mero Change!" powers to transform into Mitsuki and stay home when Mitsuki went to work.

Meroko sighed. "I know….I know. You go have fun." Mitsuki flashed her a smile. "Alright, see you later!"

Outside, Takuto was waiting, crossing his arms impatiently as he hovered slightly above the ground. "Sure took ya long enough", he commented. "Come on, let's go."

In only a few minute they could see the studio, which meant that Mitsuki needed to change into Full Moon. "Over there!" Mitsuki exclaimed, pointing to a clump of trees behind a wooden bench.

After making sure the coast was clear, Takuto snapped his fingers. Mitsuki felt the familiar feeling as her hair grew longer and turned blonde, and her whole body became that of a sixteen year old's.

When she was done transforming, Takuto and Mitsuki walked into the studio. As soon as they entered Mitsuki's manager, Miss Oshige waved to her cheerfully from just inside.

"Mitsuki! There you are!" she walked up to her. "Your photo shoot's starting in a few minutes, but first I'd like to show you something, ok?" Mitsuki nodded.

Miss Oshige led her down a hallway full of staff from around the studio, many you said, "Good Morning Full Moon-san!" or "Good luck today!"

Finally they made it to a small room whose main feature seemed to be a large wooden table. On top of the table sat a box that was overflowing with envelopes. "What's this?" Mitsuki asked.

Miss Oshige smiled. "This Mitsuki, is your fan mail." Mitsuki was taken aback. "Fan mail?" Miss Oshige nodded. "Letters have been pouring in since your CD went on sale. I thought you might want to read them."

Mitsuki nodded. "Thanks so much!" Miss Oshige laughed. "Your welcome. I've got to do something, I'll come back and get you when it's time to start."

Mitsuki sat down and stared at the letters for a moment. It was so great to know people actually liked her music enough to write to her!

Smiling, she selected a random letter and opened it. What she read however, wiped the smiled right off her face. "What?" Takuto asked. He leaned over her shoulder and looked at the letter. It read:

Well Full Moon, you beat me at the audition.

I don't know how, but you did.

But what I do know is that it won't last.

You may have made it lucky with one song, but in this world it's not that easy.

You really should just give now while you've still got your dignity.

-Someone

"Mitsuki…." Takuto said quietly. Mitsuki's face had gone white, and she looked like she was about to cry.

"Mitsuki! Are you ready? It's about time…" Miss Oshige stopped in the doorway when she was Mitsuki's face. "Mitsuki?" Mitsuki voice was hollow as she said, "I'm sorry, but I don't feel good. Could I please go home?"

Miss Oshige nodded. "Yes, of course, if you're not feeling well...But are you going to be alright? " she sounded worried.

Mitsuki stood up. "I'll….I'll be fine", she assured her. The note fell unnoticed to the ground as she unclenched her hand. She ran out of the room, trying not to cry.

"Mitsuki!" Takuto yelled. Miss Oshige of course did not hear him. No one besides Mitsuki could hear or see the shinigami unless they were in plush form (remember at this point Mitsuki hasn't told her about them yet).

He quickly flew after her. She was running at top speed towards home, tears flowing down her face, while curious spectators watched from the side. "Isn't that Full Moon?" someone whispered.

"Mitsuki!" as this point Takuto had caught up to her. "Ignore that note, whoever wrote it doesn't know what they were saying!"

Mitsuki stopped for a moment, they were almost to her house now. "Yes they do! They were saying I'm a horrible singer! And what…what if they're right…" more tears flowed down her face.

"Mitsuki! Get a hold of yourself!" Takuto exclaimed. Mitsuki ignored him, running all the way back to her house before stopping outside of the gate when she realized she was still Full Moon.

So she sat outside the gate, her face blotchy and red as she cried. Takuto soon caught up though, and leaned down to look her in the eye. "Mitsuki, please don't cry! You really don't need to!"

Mitsuki shook her head. "Yes I do! If I'm horrible singer…I'll have to stop singing. And if I stop singing…I'll never be able to see Eichi again!"

There was a silence filled only by Mitsuki's sobs. Then Takuto said, "Mitsuki? Let me ask you something. Do you love singing?" Mitsuki sniffled. "Of…Of course I do!"

"And do you really want to meet Eichi?" Takuto asked. Mitsuki nodded. "Well then, you shouldn't give up like this!" he exclaimed.

Mitsuki stopped crying. "I guess, I guess you're right Takuto." She smiled. "Thanks for cheering me up." She reached out and hugged him.

Takuto blushed a fierce red. "Well come on, Meroko is probably bored out of her mind by now." Mitsuki laughed. "You're right."

As she headed in, Takuto smiled. For some reason he loved it when that girl smiled. But how did he know that the person who wrote the note wouldn't bother Mitsuki again?

Authors Note: Well there was Chapter 2! I hope you liked it! It's a good thing Takuto was there to cheer her up, wasn't it? Well anyway I don't want to give any thing away about what happens next, so be sure to read Chapter 3!
