Chapter 3

I f Nagihiko was a child again

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

The Royal Garden is very silent today. It is the day after Nagihiko's turning back. Yaya sighed. "Yaya will do anything to bring Nagi back..." She said. The rest of the guardians sighed then nodded their heads.

"Um...why again am I chained up...?" Said a childish voice. They turned their heads to where the sound came from. There, in the Jack's chair, Nagihiko sat chained. "If we let you go, you'd go missing for the tenth time today." Rima sighed. "And that's a problem because...?" Nagihiko trailed off. Rima then stood from her chair then screamed at Nagi with fangs. "IT'S A PROBLEM BECAUSE WE FIND YOU IN THE WEIRDEST PLACES" The rest of the guardians laughed hysterically.

"It is a big problem but funny when you...hahaha think about it haha!!!" Amu laughed. Rima sighed then turned to look at Nagihiko. "First, we found you on the top of a 60 feet acacia tree..." She sighed.

"Then we found you riding a wild bear..." Tadase said as he sipped the tea.

"And then we saw you running around the big basketball game which was on TV...BWAHAHAHA!!!" Yaya laughed.

Nagihiko then spoke up. "That's not all! Remember I let all the lions in Tokyo zoo lose?!" (I don't know if there's such a zoo) He then pointed his index finger up to his chin. "I also remember letting the elephants lose..." Everyone sweat dropped then put their hands in their faces in defeat. "Who is Wincan's twin?! I want her to turn Nagi back!!!" Yaya whined.

Suddenly, a white light appeared in the garden. "W-what the?!!!" They all screamed. As the light faded, they saw a white figure.

"WINCAN!!!" They all said, shocked. Wincan was panting heavily. The girl gracefully landed on her feet. Her glow vanished. Her white hair remained the same but her once glittery, white gown was replaced by a uniform. Her uniform was a grey, pleated miniskirt, long sleeved polo with a green ribbon around the collar and was covered with a red violet jacket. She had knee high black socks and brown shoes. Her white hair is tied up into a ponytail with a sakura ribbon .

"Hello!" She said with a warm smile. She then looked at her hands, sighed then looked at the too-mortified-to-move guardians. "I guess I changed back to human form" She sighed still looking at her hands. Tadase was the first to shake off the shock. He then took a step towards Wincan.

"W-Wincan why are you human! I thought you were an enchantress and your sister! Your twi-" Tadase was cut off by Wincan's finger as she put it in his lips, meaning for him to be quiet. "That's why I came here" She said as she stood up then dusted the dirt off her skirt. After she dusted it out, she looked at the guardians.

"Wincan is my name in charanari. Midori Hoshigo is my real name. I am truly a powerful teenage heart's egg bearer who can transform into an enchantress in white..." She stopped. Everyone was quite shocked. "You mean...all this time we thought you were something magical and powerful...you turn out to be just an ordinary child?!" Amu shrieked. "Well...my charanari is out of the ordinary..." Midori said. "Go on..." Rima encouraged. Midori took a deep breath then said,

"I'm not supposed to tell you this, but I really want to help you. You see, my twin's base is in America...but...her charanari is dark...she is my opposite. Dark...scary... So do you still want to save him despite my warning?" She said, pointing at the clueless and chained Nagihiko. The guardians looked at him then at Midori then nodded. "What great friends!!" She giggled as she clapped her hands together. "But then..." Rima started. "How in the world are we going to tell our parents we're going all the way to America...?" Amu continued. Everyone sweat dropped.

"And I bet Nagihiko's mom is worried sick due to his unexplained absence since yesterday..." Tadase's forehead creased. Midori suddenly exclaimed, "I CAN HELP!!! I HAVE THE POWER TO MANIPULATE PEOPLE'S MINDS!!! Just leave it to Midori-Chan!" She said the last sentence with a wink.

"YAY! MIDORI-CHII, YOU WOULD BE A HUGE HELP ~NEE!!!" Yaya said, hugging the girl. Tadase then handed her the phone then whispered, "This is Fujisaki-kun's mother..." Midori took the phone.

Midori: Hello!

Mrs. Fujisaki: H-hello? You say Nagihiko is with you?!

Midori: Oh!!! Yes I do!!! Can we take him to America with us?!

~Everyone (even Nagihiko) sweat drops~

Mrs. Fujisaki: NANIIIII???!!!! THIS IS ALL SO UNCLEAR!!!

Midori: Oh sorry! It's a guardian's exposure trip. I guess he was too busy to call you last night to tell you he slept over in the school!

Mrs. Fujisaki: I would allow him to go but as long as there's an adult okay!

Midori: Okay!

Midori hangs up then looks at the guardians, tilts her head then smiles. "His mom is so easy to convince that I didn't even need to use my powers. Who's next?"

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

All the guardians (with the help of Midori) are allowed to go to America as long as there's an adult with them. You can call Ikuto an adult since he's 18 and he's the only adult not busy (because he's lazy).

"Ah! There he is!" Amu said, pointing towards Ikuto who slept in a grassy area. The guardians, along with Midori and Kukai surrounded Ikuto as he slept. "Do you think we should wake him up...?" Rima whispered. "Of course we should, Rima onee-chan. All he ever does is sleep!" Nagihiko said still in childish mode. Nagihiko then shouted "IKUTOOO!!!!" Then his eyes shot open all of a sudden.

"W-WHAT" He was so astonished. He then looked at the boy who woke him up, his face right in front of his. "Ikuto nii-san! Will you go with us to America?!" He said. Ikuto's eyes looked ready to pop out while the others sweat dropped.

"How can he say that so straight forward? He told Ikuto the shocking news without even preparing him" Kukai told Tadase. Ikuto then pointed his finger on Nagihiko's now small face. "W-wasn't he around your age when I last saw him?!!!" Ikuto said, mortified.

Rima held Nagihiko on the shoulder. "He was in a...near...death...experience back there and..." Rima flinched. She didn't quite understand the whole thing. Midori then took a step forward. "I saved him...but I can't fully cure. You see, I can't keep him in his original age and-" "that is why we want you to come with us to America!!! That's where Midori-chii's twin is!!!" Yaya exclaimed, interrupting Midori. They all giggled at the wide-eyed Ikuto.

Ikuto then turned his back then rubbed the back of his head. "So let me get this straight...You want me to go with you to America to save your little friend..." He said, flabbergasted. "That's exactly what we want you to do!!!" Amu yelled. Ikuto turned to look at Amu. "Can't go without me, Amu?" He asked a red Amu. "W-well y-you s-s-s-see w-we need a-a..." Amu stuttered then decided not to humiliate herself anymore. She pushed him away the crossed her arms. (You know how Amu acts all stubborn around him)

"W-we only need you t-to...you see..." She stuttered again and never got to continue. Tadase giggled then took a step towards Ikuto. "We are only allowed to go to America with an adult, Ikuto nii-san. And...You're the only one who could drive." He said without hesitation. (This fanfiction happened after the fight with Easter so that means that Tadase and Ikuto are friends again)

Ikuto smirked then looked at Amu. "I'll only go if Amu calls me Ikuto-koi" He said. Amu blushed more than ever and Tadase had zombie eyes. "IKUTO NII-SAN!!!" He screeched. "What? A big bro like me can't have fun with his 'lil bro's girlfriend?" Ikuto teased. "Amu-chan, just say it without meaning it!" Yaya said. Amu gulped. "L-let's go ask Nikaidou-sensei instead..." She said walking off. "Oh, Amu? You're too nervouse?" Ikuto said from behind her with his hand in his hips.

"Just say it." He said. Amu looked at Tadase and he nodded, although he was still red from anger and...mixed emotions. "Ikuto-k-k-k-ko-" "Stop it!" Said a voice from above. They then saw glittering feathers shower from the sky. They looked up and saw

"UTAU?!!" They all said. Utau then landed to her feet. Kukai walked to her side and Midori...well...she was frozen. "H-H-H-HOSHINA UTAU?!!?!?!" Midori said, still frozen. She turned her head to Amu and her friends. "WHY DO YOU NOT CARE?!?!?! THIS IS HOSHINA UTAU!!!" She stammered. "Why should I react? Utau is my sister" Ikuto said casually. She then looked at the guardians and Kukai for their reason to not care that Japan's version of Hannah Montana was there in front of them and they did not care. "Well, we've been good friends with Utau eversince. But our reason of friendship has nothing to do with her being famous." Amu said, recovering from the blush.

~~~~~~~~Midori's POV~~~~~~~~

Utau emotionlessly looked at Amu. "Amu, don't let Ikuto call you that." She said! To Amu! Amu is so cool! The guardians are so cool!!! "Only I get to call him that" Utau snickered. What.... Don't tell me Hoshina Utau is in love with her brother! Oh no...I'm hypervelating...again. I get it whenever I'm too shocked, when I see a real life pop star or if I see Edward Cullen which is a big problem because I have a huge poster of him in my bedroom.

"Amu-chan!" Shouted Amu's pink Shugo Chara. "We can sense the presence of an x egg!" Continued her blue Shugo Chara. We all looked at the direction the Shugo charas pointed and sure enough, there was a bunch of x eggs that flew above us. "Minna, let's charanari!" Said the blonde king's chair, Tadase. I saw on the corner of my eye, Utau had a devil Shugo Chara telling her to switch. What? Utau, The Hoshina Utau had two Shugo charas?! This is good!

I wiggled my strap bag a little and out came my groggy Shugo Chara named Ki She has a white, sparkling white and baby pink gown, blonde hair that was let loose until the waist and purple eyes. "What is it, Midori?" She said in a gentle yet playful voice. My Shugo Chara then caught the attention of my new friends. "Kyaa!! Kira Kira! So pretty!" Yaya exclaimed. "Midori, let's charanari!" Utau smiled at me. KYAAA!!! I nodded. "Hey, can I help, too?!" Nagihiko said. "No, Nagihiko! It's too dangerous!" Amu told him. The boy simply pouted. "Okay, minna!" Amu said to all my friends. I winked at my Shugo Chara.

"My heart: Unlock!"

"Charanari: Amulet Diamond!"

"Charanari: Platinum Royale!"

"Charanari: Clown Drop!"

"Charanari: Dear Baby!"

"Charanari: Lunatic Charm!"

"Charanari: Black Lynx!"

"Charanari: Shining Chantress!"

They all looked at me. "Shining Chantress!" Rima smiled. "Midori you're pretty!" Yaya said. I hushed her. "It's Wincan when I'm in charanari, remember!" "Why?" They all asked. I winked at them. "That's a secret!" Yaya pouted.

"Enough admiration! Let's go beat these x eggs already!" Hoshina Utau said. "Right!" We all chanted.
