Please enjoy my completely fan-made work of FICTION!! :D
Sparkles of Youthfulness - Seriously? A zombie? xD Thanks for motivating me to update! Now if only I could think of something to write for Three Delivery...
Hiro touched the cover of the leather bound book tenderly, wondering if this was really what he had been waiting for, that this text would be the one thing to reunite him with his master after years.
It no longer would matter if Tatsuki Miyabe had been left alive anymore, as soon as he found out how to bring her older brother back from the Spirit Realm she would die anyway. He flipped through the pages of the tome, admiring the neatness of it all as he searched for the enchantment he needed. His eyes fell upon it and he smirked, laughed even; causing the nearby Arashi to shiver at the sound of its pure sinister intention.
Arashi curled and uncurled his fingers in a spastic way; he still didn't understand how he had gotten entangled in this mess. He wanted out so badly, but could never come around to make an official escape. "This is it Arashi." He heard Hiro say, "Soon, Lord Sousuke will be with us again!" Arashi cringed with fear; Sousuke was finally going to be back in the living world.

Taki dropped the pen she had been using to do the crossword, something was very wrong.
It had been an hour since Billy finished the translation and went to give it to Martin in Italy. It had been thirty minutes since M.O.M. went to retrieve the teenage agents and the caveman. "Hey, Taki!" and roughly one second and forty-three milliseconds since the agents returned to the Center. The bad feeling Tatsuki had dropped to her stomach as she forced herself to smile at the agents.
"Hey guys!" she said with a tiny trance of uneasiness, she needed to find out why she felt that way.

Hiro tapped his foot in boredom as he waited for Takakura to retrieve the ingredients needed to successfully perform the ceremony. In a matter of hours, our Sousuke-sama will be with us again.
Arashi cleared his throat as he pulled on the collar of his shirt, "S-sir." Hiro looked over at the timid Arashi, "M-may I ask what I'm do-doing this for?"
Hiro looked up at Arashi, an amused leer upon his face. "Of course, Arashi." Hiro said then waited patiently waited for Arashi to ask what he was doing.
Arashi repressed the urge to roll his eyes; Hiro had his moments. "Wha-what am do-doing this for?" Hiro did not repress the eye-rolling urge. The older man stood and walked over to the much younger man.
"Komatsuzaki Arashi-kun," Hiro began by placing his hands on the younger man's shoulders, "Your father left you in my care after his tragic passing, did he not?" Arashi said nothing as he nodded, "and I have been kind to you, yes? I even treat you like my own son, don't I, Arashi-kun?" Hiro smiled as Arashi nodded again.
"Ha-hai." Arashi affirmed.
"Then please, Arashi-kun, trust me." Hiro said, Arashi sighed and nodded once more; Hiro smiled and went back to his chair, sat, and began to pour himself over the younger Miyabe's book.
Arashi turned away from Hiro, but high school? What's the point of sending me there? It's already been established that Miyabe Tatsuki-chan can't do anything thing that could potentially stop Hiro from bringing back her brother… Arashi walked out onto the apartment's small balcony/porch. His lips pursed, unless Hiro-san is being extra careful…

Much was shared about the mission Martin, Diana, and Java had gone on as the four returned to school, "Really? That's so cool!" Tatsuki grinned up at the three (being only thismuch shorter then Diana). Martin seemed ecstatic that Taki was into the story, despite his stepsister raining on his parade whenever he gave the details. ("That didn't happen, Martin!" or "That girl wasn't in love with you, and she didn't kiss you either!")
"Hey, Taki!" a familiar female voice called, "Taki!" the group turned to see Jenni Anderson running toward the group. With sparkles in his eyes at seeing his crush coming his way, forgetting that her interest was really in Taki.
"Jenni!" Martin called out dreamily, running toward her with his arms stretched out ready to embrace her. Seeing this, the popular girl sidestepped Martin, avoiding his embrace completely and causing the blonde boy to fall on his flat on the ground. "Ow…" Martin muttered as he peeled his face off the tile floor. Taki, Diana, and Java sweat dropped at the event.
"Taki, have you heard, there's another new boy from Japan!" Jenni sounded excited; Diana raised an eyebrow at the news. Taki blinked in surprise.
"Really? Another student from Japan?" the shock was written clearly across her face.
Jenni nodded excitedly, "Mm-hm, and I've been told he's pretty cute, too." Jenni winked at Diana.
"It's unusual for us to have another new student so soon." Diana thought out loud. Java nodded in agreement.
"So, who cares?" Martin had fully picked himself off the ground. "We'll probably never see him anyway!" Martin grabbed Taki's hand and stormed off.
Jenni looked to Diana confused, "What's gotten into your stepbrother, Diana?" Diana shrugged; she didn't really want to know anyway.
-
"Martin!" Taki squirmed out of his grip, once free she placed her hands on her hips, "I can walk on my own you know! What'd you drag me off for?"
Martin blinked and struggled for words, why did he drag her off? "Uhhh," was all that would come out as he scratched the back of his head.
Taki sighed irritably, "You're so weird." She said, "I'm going to my room now, Martin." And with that she headed in the direction of her dorm room.
Once Taki had turned the far corner Martin crossed his arms, "Well what's her problem?" he asked aloud to no one in particular.
-
Taki was muttering to herself in Japanese when she literally ran into someone. "Go-gomen nasai!!" she said and leaned over to help him up.
"Re-really, it's no problem." Her victim slightly stuttered in Japanese. Taki blinked and gave the boy a once over. The boy was of Japanese decent as well with short black hair and dark chocolate colored eyes. "My name's Komatsuzaki, Arashi." He continued in his native tongue.
Taki smiled, sure the kids at Torrington were great, and Martin, Diana, and Java were really nice, but it couldn't beat speaking with someone who knew your native language. "You must be the new boy that Anderson-chan was talking about." She said, the boy blushed, "I'm Miyabe, Tatsuki." The boy's eyes went wide after Taki introduced herself causing Tatsuki to cock her head to the side.
"Oh, I-I'm sorry, it's just I—," Arashi began.
"Nah, it's okay, I'm used to being stared at." Taki grinned. Arashi sighed, Saved, He thought.
"S-so, where are you headed in such a hurry?" Arashi asked, Taki sweat dropped.
"I was headed to my dorm, I guess I've been on edge for awhile now, I didn't even realize where I was going! I'm so sorry by the way!" Tatsuki apologized again. Arashi merely chuckled.
"Seriously, it's okay!"
"I should probably apologize to Martin, too, it really wasn't his fault…" Taki was musing to herself now. It was Arashi's turn to cock his head to the side in confusion.
"Who's Martin?" he asked.
Taki blinked, she hadn't realized she had been talking aloud to herself. "Oh, he's just a friend of mine, anyway, I'll be seeing you, Komatsuzaki-kun!" Tatsuki said as she continued onward toward her dorm.
-
Tatsuki felt dread pile up in her stomach as she opened the door to her dorm room. Upon seeing it, her jaw dropped, "Oh my…" her room was completely destroyed. "Who could have done this?" she asked to no one, "and I just cleaned this room a few days ago!" she added as a side note. She stepped over some debris, "I guess I better get to cleaning again…"
-
Taki looked over her work, pleased with how quickly she was able to fix the mess, Something's missing, though she thought as she went to her drawer and pulled out a mp3 player to listen to her Jrock music she had stored on it. The bad feeling wouldn't ebb away, causing Taki to pace back and forth in her room, trying to figure out why she felt that way. She suddenly stopped, "My book." She whispered in dismay as she bolted out the door. But I didn't tell anyone about that book, except maybe mentioned it to Billy, but, still, there's no way…
It wasn't long before she caught up with Arashi again, "Whoa, what's the hurry. Miyabe-san?" he asked, "Are you late for class, too?" This caused Taki to look down at her watch.
"Dang it!" she said in frustration, "wait, shouldn't you be running, too?" she raised an eyebrow, to which Arashi chuckled nervously.
"Well, I'm new, so I kind of have an excuse." He said, "Do you know where this class is?" he had taken his schedule out and pointed to the class he was trying to get to.
Not wanting to be rude, Taki glanced at the spot where Arashi was pointing. At least when I meet my end I'll have 'helped new student' on my side she thought sarcastically. Her eyes widened, "That's where I'm headed, too, come on!" she grabbed his hand and switched to GET TO CLASS mode.
-
Arashi was a really interesting person, and it was really nice to have someone to talk to in Japanese, Taki deduced, she and him had quickly become friends, "Taki-chan, we really have to stop meeting like this." Arashi joked as they met for the third time that day in the lunchroom. Taki smiled and laughed lightly.
"Three times in one day? It must be destiny, Arashi-kun." Taki joked back, not noticing the small pink that graced the boy's cheeks.
"Yea-yeah."
"Hey, Taki!" Martin appeared from nowhere and stepped in between Arashi and Tatsuki. "Where have you been, Taki, me and Diana have been looking for you!" Taki blinked at the blonde's statement,
"Really?" she asked, to which Martin nodded then realized she had forgotten about Arashi. "Oh, Martin, this is my friend Arashi Komatsuzaki."
"Uh, yeah, nice to meet you…"
"Martin, don't be rude." Said Diana, appearing along side her stepbrother, "Hi. Arashi, right?"
"Aa, Hai, boku wa—I-I mean yes, I'm Arashi!" the boy quickly recovered from his mistake. "Sorry, sometimes I forget…" he sweat dropped.
Diana smiled politely, "It's okay, your English is better then Martin's, at least."
"HEY!"
-
After lunch, Taki managed to corner Diana and tell her about her ransacked room and missing book, "Taki, this is serious, why didn't you tell us about the book?" Diana was more then a little upset with Tatsuki.
"Because I wasn't supposed to have brought it to this country in the first place." Taki said solemnly
