`Shadow: Yo! Welcome back minna!!!

Yoru: -stretches- Nya! I'm tired…

Shadow: Go to sleep and I'll crush you.

Yoru: What?!? I can't sleep?!

Haruko: Apparantly…yes…

Hiro: Shadow. You spelled apparently wring… -looks at what he said- and also wrong.

Shadow: Shut up! I'm tired! –sighs- I need to sleep… -walks to the corner and sleeps curled up-

Yoru: Yay, nya! I could sleep too the- -cut off by a pencil flying over him- Who did that, nya? –looks at Shadow who just lowered hand- Nya…. T.T


"Crap…what's he going to do…?" I mumbled and bit my lip until it bled.

"Don't hurt yourself." Ikuto said. He walked over to me and wiped the blood off with his sleeve. I moved away.

"Don't touch me!" I snapped. "Besides, why are you here? You're not the one tied up, so you can leave me."

He lowered his arm. "If I leave, who knows what they'll do." He looked at me with caring eyes. "So please don't make it hard for yourself."

I looked away. "You're not acting like your usual self. Why are you even concerned?"

"Because. I like you." He lifted my chin. I looked into his purple eyes that were glistening in the light as he looked into my chocolate brown ones. I blinked and averted my eyes.

"Don't…" I whispered. I shook my head and buried my head into my knees.

"Haruko…" he murmured as he stretched an arm out. I moved back.

"No…" I kept backing up, and he kept moving forward. Pretty soon, my back was touching the wall and I could go no further. Ikuto hovered over me, one hand was on the floor holding himself up, while the other was gently grasping a lock of my hair.

I squeezed my eyes shut and nervously looked away. I gasped as Ikuto grabbed my chin again, making me look at him. I timidly looked at his hypnotizing eyes as he leaned in.

Suddenly, the door busted opened and Ikuto moved away from me. The person who just entered was Kazuomi. "Ikuto… you said you wouldn't get close to her." He shook his head. He smirked as he laid his eyes on me. "I guess we really have to get rid of you if you keep interrupting our plans, neh?" He took a step forward.

Ikuto put his arms around me. "Don't hurt her." He said, glaring at his father.

"Ikuto…" I whimpered. He hugged me tighter. Kazuomi scoffed and took out some kind of mini pitchfork(okay, I recently just learned that the real fork was a gigantic one, but before, I said it was a small one, so I'm going along with my kind of fork).

"What the hell is that?" I asked.

"Hmph. I guess it's time then." He smirked. He pressed a small red button that was on his fork. Ikuto's eyes widened, and then lessened as his eyes lost their shine. It was just like last time.

Ikuto let go of me and stood up. He picked up his violin. An egg suddenly appeared next to him. "Wha-what is that?!"

The egg glowed a darkly color and Ikuto and it character transform into Death Rebel. "Just why the hell does Ikuto have a new transformation?! What are you doing to him?!" I stood up. Ikuto slowly walked beside Kazuomi. I tried walking forward, only to have the chains be pulled back again and making me fall.

"You know what to do." Kazuomi whispered. Ikuto nodded and walked out the door with his violin in his hand.

I glared at Kazuomi once the door closed. "What are you going to make him do? What's going to happen to my friends?"

He laughed. "We're going to get the Embryo, and destroy the guardians once and for all. But to lure them here, we have to use Ikuto."

"What are you going to do once you have the Embryo? Are you going to discard Ikuto like trash?"

"Maybe…" he smirked. I glared hard. Kazuomi simply snapped his finger.

"Take her to the tower. Once the Embryo is purified, we may need her." Men dressed in suits opened the door. Two held me so I wouldn't escape as another one was unlocking the chains.

"LET ME GO!!!" I tried to get out of the mens' grasp as they dragged me out of the room.


"Nagehiko! Minna! Where are you?" Kukai yelled out as he stopped in the middle of the park. Amu panted beside him.

She looked up. "Eh? Where are they?" Ran wondered.

"Heh… you actually came?" a voice said smugly. Kukai and Amu looked at a tree and saw Hiro smirking in his character transformation. His hand was twirling a cell phone by the strap. "Kids are so easy to fool these days." He put his cell phone in his back pocket.

"Hiro! Where did you take Haruko?!" Kukai hissed. Hiro smirked as he got out his scythe.

"I don't know…where did I take her? But are you sure you should be asking me? Shouldn't you be asking the real person?" Hiro asked. "Like…Ikuto?"

As if on cue, the hypnotized black cat appeared beside him. "Ikuto!" Kukai growled. Ikuto simply looked back, dazed. Soon, X eggs started appearing and flying around everywhere.

Hiro looked around, disgusted. "Eh? You gathered X eggs with out me?" he sighed. "Damn. When you're a zombie, you sure are irritating…"

"Zombie? What do you mean?" Amu asked. Hiro stuck his tongue out.

"If you want to know…" he aimed his scythe to the two. "You have to try and keep up! Hell's Flames!"

Amu and Kukai swiftly chara transformed and dodged the fire. When they looked back, Hiro and Ikuto were already making a run for it. They were about to follow when the X eggs held them back.

"Crap!" Kukai yelled as he dodged the eggs' attacks. "We're losing them!"

"Juggling Party!"

"GO! Go! Little Duckies!" Ropes wrapped around most of the eggs while the others where pounded by rubber ducks. Amu and Kukai turned around to see the Guardians.

"Minna!" Amu yelled.

"You guys go on and get them! Don't worry! We'll handle the eggs!" Nagehiko smiled and started commanding Yaya and Rima on what to do.

Kukai nodded. "Right! Thanks guys! Amu! Let's go!" the pink haired girl nodded back and was about to go when Tadase grabbed her hand.

"I'm coming with you guys." He stated. They both looked at him for a second, and then nodded.

"We better hurry up then." Kukai said as he went ahead with the other two following.


"Eh? You came here pretty quick." The man who was carrying me said as he stepped out of the elevator. Hiro scoffed as he held his scythe triumphantly.

"Whatever…" he smirked when he saw me. "Hey little imouto. How's it been?" he walked over to me. I scowled as the man set me down.

"Why the hell did you take me here…?" I glowered.

"Just because…" he said.

"That it.. I'm leaving…" I said as I shoved the man away and headed toward the elevator. When I was just one step away, a dark orb engulfed me. I turned back to Hiro, who just lowered his scythe.

"Sorry. You can't do that imouto." I pushed the wall(can a sphere have a wall…?), trying to break it. I rammed my elbow into it, but nothing got damaged. Except my arm. "It's no use trying to get out. Besides, don't you want to see your precious little friends be crushed by Easter's wrath?"

I lowered my head as I felt tears trying to make their way out. "….Hiro…why…?" He looked at me confusingly. "Why did we change…? Why did we become like this…? …why…?"

Hiro blinked, confused. He lowered his head and growled. "Shut up!!" he screamed as he raised his scythe. When he was about to attack me, a gust of wind blew by and Ikuto appeared with dark glitter fluttering around him.

"Ikuto…" I whispered. Hiro turned to him.

"Are they coming?" he nodded. Hiro held his scythe in both hands. "Okay. You know what to do." Ikuto nodded again and positioned his violin.

"Well, it's time for the final battle." Hiro smirked as Kukai, Tadase, and Amu arrived at the top of the tower.


Shadow: Sorry if it's been a long time since I updated! Gah!! Life is being troublesome for me nowadays!! .

Haruko: Like you have it hard, I'm being held captive by Easter again!

Shadow: That's not the problem. You aren't real. And besides, I think I'll end the story in about 10 or less more chapters. Shugo Chara's near their end too, right? Or am I just thinking that? :/

Yaya: Aww!! It'll be your first finished story! Yay! –hugs Shadow-

Shadow: Wasn't Unlock Me From This Cage my first finished one? –sighs- Well, technically since this is a continuation, I guess it's a nevermind…

Ikuto: So…in about 10 more chapters, this is it huh…?

Shadow: Pretty much. I'ma miss you peoples. T-T But I think I have problems with my stories now…

Kukai: What do you mean?

Shadow: Well…I think I put the kidnapping thing too much. I mean, Haruko got kidnapped twice, my future character for another story(I haven't published it yet) is going to be kidnapped, and also…Spoiler: Chouko's going to be kidnapped too. (sorry for telling you that Dx)

Chouko: Say what?!!? Damn…you really do have problems…

Shadow: DX My characters are just like Mokuba…(in Yu-gi-oh abridged XD)
