Let me start off with the bad news. This story officially will have two more chapters after this one. I'm sorry, but it needs a proper ending, and not just a random story that goes on forever off of crappy ideas. Anyway, I own nothing, and enjoy!
Soft footsteps walked in the birth of the new morning. Mr. Toshiro was mowing his lawn. He looked up, noticing a presence in front of him. "Can I help you?" He asked the hooded figure.
"It's been a while, Toshiro-San." The voice whispered. Toshiro looked at the hooded figure curiously. They pulled off their hood, revealing a face of a familiar girl.
"T-Tsukiyomi Utau?" He exclaimed. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm surprised you remember who I am…" Utau muttered.
"I could never forget you." He whispered. "You have the same eyes as your father, a man who helped me discover who I am…" He smiled at Utau. "How can I help you, Tsukiyomi-San?"
"Before my father left, he left you with something." Utau said. "He entrusted you with something very important." Toshiro nodded. "I seek that very treasure he gave you."
"Why is that?" Toshiro wondered.
"I need to take down an organization that detested my father." Utau explained. "I need to free someone important to me; my brother." Toshiro smiled.
"Ah, Tsukiyomi Ikuto? I remember him." Toshiro exclaimed. "Your father always did say it would be used for an important cause. Hold on, let me find it… you can come in." Utau nodded, following him inside. She sat at one of the chairs.
"While I find it, would you like a drink? Care for some coffee or tea?"
"I'm good." Utau replied. Toshiro smiled, and left to find the treasure.
"What are you doing?" Il wondered. Utau ignored her chara. Toshiro came back, holding the small box carefully.
"Be careful…" Toshiro whispered. Utau took the box and left. She started walking to Yukari's house. She stopped outside, waiting patiently.
"Utau, what are you-" Utau smiled carefully at El.
"Wait and see." She muttered. Utau knocked on the door. Yukari got the door, and nearly started screaming.
The alarm began to beep loudly. Rima wanted it to stop. She opened her eyes, and pressed the snooze button. Kusu-Kusu peeked her eyes out of the egg.
"Good morning Rima!" Kusu-Kusu said happily. Rima sighed, and got changed and showered. She walked downstairs, and saw Nikaidou, Yukari, and…?
"Hello Mashiro-San." Nikaidou greeted.
"What's she doing here?" Rima exclaimed, looking at Utau. Utau looked at Rima.
"Utau-Chan never betrayed us!" Yukari said happily. "She was only trying to save Ikuto-San!"
"Why didn't you tell us that in the first place?" Rima wondered, her eyebrows raised. She sat beside across from Utau.
"I thought I needed to save Ikuto myself." Utau muttered. "However, I was mistaken. I need to go to your guardian meeting. You see, I have a plan. It involves you, as a matter of fact." Rima stared at Utau.
"What makes you think I want to save that idiot?" Rima muttered. Utau sighed.
"I understand why you're annoyed at him." Utau muttered. "However, we aren't only going to save Ikuto, but we're going to stop Easter. We'll purify those X-Eggs you created." Rima looked at Utau.
"I have to purify those X-Eggs…" Rima whispered.
"Calm down. You will." Utau said. "Well, let's go to the guardian meeting." Rima nodded, surprised, as she followed Utau out of the door. Utau looked like she was playing with something in her pocket.
"Do the others know about you…not being a traitor?" Rima wondered.
"Not yet." Utau admitted. "They will though."
"Why did you attack us?" Rima wondered.
"Easter was going to crash your dance. However, my little warning given to you in the Royal Garden wasn't enough to warn you, so I had to come myself to stop Easter." Utau explained.
"So, it was you who ruined our Royal Garden?" Rima exclaimed.
"Well, I happened to be fighting X-Eggs inside your Royal Garden…" Utau explained. "So, naturally, your Royal Garden was destroyed. Realizing that X-Eggs attacking the Royal Garden and your dance that day weren't a coincidence, I decided to give you a warning." Rima looked at Utau, surprised. They got to the Royal Garden, the last two arriving. When they walked inside, the other four stared at Utau in shock.
"What are…?" Amu started. Utau explained before Amu could finish her sentence.
"Utau-Chi is innocent?" Yaya exclaimed.
"I suppose." Utau muttered.
"That's great news!" Amu exclaimed.
"YAYA NEEDS TO MAKE A PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT! OH MY GOD, YAYA NEEDS TO CALL KUKAI-TAN AND TELL HIM HE ISN'T SINGLE AND, AND…"
"What do you mean, 'he's single…?" Utau wondered.
"Uh, well, he considered that as a breakup…" Yaya admitted.
"I guess I can't blame him…" Utau muttered. Yaya was on her cell phone, calling Kukai and going hyper.
"So, what's the plan, Utau-Chan?" Tadase asked.
"After you finish school, we're going to finish Easter." Utau explained. Everyone's mouths opened.
"How exactly are we going to pull that off?" Nagihiko wondered.
"Well… We will be using a little jewel my father gave to one of his old friends." Utau said, holding a gem.
"What is that?" Rima wondered.
"It's a gem full of a special type of power that we can use to stop Easter. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but we can figure out those details later." Utau explained.
"How do you know it will work?" Nagihiko wondered.
"I don't know for sure, but it will at least save my brother." Utau said. "It will also help you purify those X-Eggs." She added to Rima.
"But…how will…" Nagihiko was interrupted, by Kukai's sudden entrance.
"What's this surprise you are talking about Yaya? I have to get to class; I can't afford to be late… Holy shit!" Kukai looked like he was going to pass out.
"AHHHH KUKAI-TAN CURSED!" Yaya moaned. Kukai ignored her.
"U-Utau?" Kukai exclaimed.
"That's my name." Utau muttered. Kukai's eyes widened.
"Why…what…you…what?" Utau sighed, and explained. Kukai hugged her. "I knew you weren't really bad! After school, me and you ramen now!~"
"No." Utau muttered.
"What? How could you ever back down a ramen eating challenge?"
"Because, we're going to stop Easter." Kukai stared at her, as if she was crazy. Suddenly, the bell rang. "Shoot! Well, I'll meet you guys later!" Kukai grinned, and jogged off. Everyone else left for their classes, except for Utau.
"See you guys later." Nagihiko said, as Rima, Amu, and Tadase left for their class. Rima waved to Nagihiko, making some fan-boys glare at Nagihiko. Rima sighed, and left for her class with Amu and Tadase. Nikaidou greeted them, as they took their seats. He opened his mouth, beginning the lesson.
After school, the three of them made their way to the Royal Garden. Rima trotted behind Amu and Tadase who were talking and holding hands. However, there was a strange expression on Tadase's face; it was almost…guilt?
"WAHH! YOU GUYS ARE LATE!" Yaya screeched loudly.
"Since when was there a set time besides after school?" Amu wondered.
"Anyway, we need to get to business." Utau said. "I could care less about your school days. Now, our main focus is stopping Easter. We need a plan." Everyone looked at each other. Kukai, who was also there, raised his eyebrow.
"Utau-Chan… I know you want to save your brother, but… we can't really stop Easter completely now…" Nagihiko started.
"You underestimate me." Utau hissed.
"But, no one can come up with a radical plan in one day." Nagihiko pointed out. "Yes, we did want to do something major before graduation, but this is pushing things. We can't stop Easter, not now…"
"Like I said, the power comes from this jewel!" Utau said.
"We don't even know what power this jewel has." Tadase pointed out. "We can help Ikuto-NiiSan, but I agree with Fujisaki-Kun; we cannot take down the whole entire company yet." Utau opened her mouth to speak.
"Why not?" Rima interrupted. Everyone looked at her, confused. She immediately regretted speaking. She knew that a part of Utau's plan contained Rima purifying those X-Eggs. Suddenly, Rima noticed the jewel, and she had an idea.
"Let's get cotton candy!" Yaya moaned.
"Cotton candy? That's a new request!" Kukai said.
"Yaya wants it now!" Yaya moaned. Rima tuned the others out, and turned to Kusu-Kusu.
"Kusu-Kusu, do you think you can steal the jewel from Utau without anyone noticing?" Rima whispered to her chara. Kusu-Kusu looked stunned.
"W-What? Why?" Kusu-Kusu exclaimed.
"I need to borrow it for something." Rima hissed. Kusu-Kusu looked at Rima as if she was crazy, but she nodded. Rima gave her chara a small smile, to motivate her. Kusu-Kusu floated behind Utau, without the others noticing.
"Look, can't we just think of a plan? I assure you guys; this plan will work!" Utau said.
"We don't have a plan…so how can it work?" Nagihiko wondered. Utau glared at Nagihiko.
"Anything Utau does will work!" Kukai said, siding with Utau. Nagihiko looked at Kukai, sighing. Rima watched as Kusu-Kusu grabbed the jewel carefully, and flying underneath the table, flew it to Rima. Rima smirked, as she pocketed the jewel quickly.
"Ah, Sanjou-San mentioned me coming home early. So, I'm going to go. See you guys later!" Rima said, standing up. Even though it was a lie, it still stung when Rima referred to Sanjou-San's house as "home."
"Good-bye Rima!" Amu called. How did Amu fall for that lie? Nagihiko looked at her with clear suspicion in his eyes, as Rima quickly left.
"Now, let's go to Easter." Rima said, leaving the Royal Garden.
"Rima, what exactly do you have planned?" Kusu-Kusu asked.
"I think I can possibly use the jewel's power to purify the X-Eggs!" Rima said. "I hope Utau doesn't need it for her plan…" They got to the back of the Easter building, and saw the usual groups of the so-called unpurifiable X-Eggs. "My own heart, unlock!" Rima yelled. She transformed with Kusu-Kusu, creating Clown Drop. Rima landed, and took out the jewel.
"Now what?" Kusu-Kusu asked from inside Rima.
"Uh…" Rima hesitated. "Jewel!" Rima tossed up the jewel, hoping something would happen. The jewel simply came flying down, and Rima quickly caught it. "Great, now what?" The X-Eggs stayed motionless. Rima tried wrapping ropes around the X-Eggs and throwing Juggling Pins at them, but it was all useless.
"Maybe we should have thought this out more…" Kusu-Kusu said.
"No… I'm ready now!" Rima snapped. "I will purify these X-Eggs!" Rima held the jewel in her hand, when suddenly, someone tackled her to the ground. Rima gasped in surprise.
"Give it back!" Utau screamed, trying to snatch the jewel from Rima.
"No, wait, I need it!" Rima exclaimed. She was left struggling on the ground.
"You stole it from me!"
"I need it… the X-Eggs, they can be…"
"You have no proof!"
"You don't have any either!" Rima yelled. "Now, can you just get off?" Utau stood up, but still made an effort to steal it back. Rima stood up quickly, pivoting to the side quickly.
"Guys, stop!" Amu called. "Rima, it's Utau's; you should give it back."
"But Amu, I need it for the X-Eggs!" Rima exclaimed.
"Well, I guess you have to live in pain with the X-Eggs being X-Eggs forever." Utau said. "It's your fault anyway, for not listening to me…" Rima was very close to tears.
"Guys, just…" Tadase was interrupted by the sudden glowing of the jewel.
"IT'S GLOWING!" Yaya exclaimed, narrating the situation.
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious." Utau muttered. It floated out of Rima's hand. Rima stared at it. How could a jewel start floating? It floated towards Rima. Rima watched it, as it spun around her.
"Why is it going to her? That was a gift my father gave to a friend!" Utau exclaimed.
"So…the jewel isn't really yours?" Nagihiko questioned. Utau ignored him. Rima reached for the jewel, when she heard a sound that sounded like glass shattering.
"What was that?" Amu exclaimed.
"The X-Eggs! Their protective barrier is gone!" Nagihiko exclaimed. "Now they can be purified, probably." Rima smiled, as she jumped up, and closed her eyes.
"Grand Finale!" Rima yelled.
"Wait…she can purify X-Eggs?" Kukai exclaimed, his mouth dropping open. Rima watched as the X-Eggs were shining, and they floated away, to their owners. Rima could only see brightness. She watched the jewel crack into many different pieces. She knew Utau would be mad. The transformation ended, and Rima felt herself fall to the ground, the world turning black.
