Chapter 4: Word of Warning

The sun had only just risen and a few orange-colored beams were shining through Mitsuki's bedroom when she woke up. Today, she told herself, she was not going to be late.

Yawning, she looked over at Takuto and Meroko, who were still sleeping soundly. It was rare that they were this peaceful, and Mitsuki smiled. There's no reason I can't let them sleep a little longer…

She quietly walked over to the window and opened it, feeling the refreshing breeze of the crisp morning air. She stared at the beauty of the waking world for a moment, and then decided to sing to pass the time.

So quietly, in a voice barely above a whisper (so not to wake Takuto and Meroko), she sung the first verse of Myself.

Doushite doushite suki nan darou

Konna ni namida afureteru

Ano koro ha ushinau mono ga oosukite nani mo utaenakatta

Sukoshi hanareta basho soko ga watashi no ibasho datta

She paused, taking a deep breath. As she continued, her voice grew louder, and soon she was singing as much as her twelve-year old throat could handle

Kimi no hitomi no oku ni ano hi samishisa wo mitsuketa

Futari niteru no kana?

Kitsukeba itsu mo tonari ni ite kureta

Suddenly she had a feeling she was being watched. Turning around, she saw Takuto staring at her. Mitsuki clamped her hand over her mouth. "Takuto! I'm sorry, did I wake you up?"

Takuto shook his head. Actually, she had, but it wasn't a bad thing to wake up to. "Please, don't stop because of me", he said.

A little more nervously, Mitsuki continued where she had let off.

Doushite konna ni suki nan darou

Kimi no koe kanshii hodo hibiiteru yo

Ima made nani ga sasae datta ka

Tooku hanarete wakatta yo

With this she stopped, taking a deep breath. It had hurt her throat a bit, but she loved that song, so she didn't mind.

Takuto kept looking at her for a moment. "You know Mitsuki, you really do have a beautiful voice." Mitsuki smiled. "T…Thank you, Takuto." And for a moment the two just stood there, looking at each other.

After a moment, Meroko woke up. Yawning loudly, she looked over at the two. "What's going one? Did I miss something?" She asked, sounding grouchy (she hated being left out.)

Takuto, who seemed to be shaken back to reality said, "Oh…nothing Meroko. Nothing at all."

Later

"We're here!'" Miss Oshige announced. Everyone got out of the car, and Meroko quickly changed from a plush to a shingami. "Finally, I can have some fun!" she exclaimed.

Takuto sighed loudly. "Let's just hope you don't ruin it for everyone else…." Meroko turned red in anger. "Takuto!" she yelled. She snapped her fingers, and suddenly was holding a large pink blow dryer with a picture of her in bunny form on it.

"W…what are you going to do with that?" Takuto asked, looking a little freaked out. Meroko twirled it around a little, casually saying, "Oh, I don't know…"

Mitsuki smiled at their antics as Miss Oshige led her to the changing area.

They soon arrived there, a beautiful spot right by the ocean. Cameras were sat up everywhere, Mitsuki thought the cords stretching between them took a little of the beauty away from the beach. Never the less, it was still pretty.

"Nice spot, isn't it?" Anyway, if you could change into your swimsuit…" she pointed towards a tent with a sign on it that said "Full Moon".

Mitsuki nodded and walked over to the tent. Inside, there was only a chair and a small mirror attached to a table. Takuto and Meroko left to give her some privacy, and Mitsuki got her swim suit out of her bag.

She reappeared moments later, looking stunning. She wore a beautiful two piece swimsuit which was a delicate shade of light blue, the top stopping after her belly button. It contrasted perfectly with her blonde hair that was put into a ponytail high up on her head.

Takuto's eyes widened. "Whoa…" Meroko meanwhile disappeared for a second, returning in her own swimsuit, also a two piece a lot like Mitsuki's. It was a pretty shade of pink that matched her hair, and a while velvet ribbon was tied in a bow on each strap.

"Takuto…" she said, waving her hands in front of his face, trying to distract his attention from Mitsuki and onto her.

"Mitsuki!" Miss Oshige called. "Over here!" she waved from over near the cameras. Mitsuki nodded. "Coming!" she yelled back. She smiled at Takuto and Meroko. "Ready?"

They nodded, following Mitsuki. And with that the photo shoot began. It took a while, the camera women kept asking Mitsuki to move her head, or move her arm, or something, and Meroko was starting to get bored.

"Awww...This is boring…." She muttered. Takuto crossed his arms. "I thought you said that we "hogged all the fun"?" Meroko sighed. "I know…but…"

It was eventually decided that Meroko could go off and swim, and Takuto and Mitsuki would meet her when it was time for break.

So, Meroko sat on an inflatable swim float, relaxing as she browsed through the death spirit handbook.

Suddenly she saw something that nearly made her fall off the float. Written in the familiar letters that meant it would quicken Mitsuki's death was the word… "Water".

Authors Note: I ended on a cliffhanger this time! Anyway, did you recognize the giant hair dryer:-)

Don't forget, I need at least one review to update again!

Also, special thanks to seeklyrics(dot)com where I got the lyrics for Myself (since I don't have them memorized yet). If I was not supposed to put these up, please let me know, and I can take them down (though you can't really contact me except through a review…sorry….)

Be sure to read Chapter 5!
