Is this already chapter 16? I can't believe it! This is amazing. Not only that, but I have 70 freaking reviews! Yay! Does this mean every chapter I get 10 reviews? Oh, this is the Ikarishipping chapter by the way! Isn't that great? I don't really care much for this shipping, but I've always loved the fact that opposites attract! They're complete opposites! I don't think they have anything in common, but since I had that little contest. The winner is… PunkPrincessChrissy! A lot of people guessed right, but she was the first one! So congrats!

Chapter 16

Dawn's POV

I was having a private conversation about my dream with Leaf when someone cut us off-Cough cough Misty cough cough- so politely with her delicate mallet. Apparently she needed to hit a wall with her mallet because some pissed her off. I bet it was Ash. I ignored her and began talking to Leaf again,

"So what do you think I should do?"

Leaf thought for a while then said, "Well, I think you should go seek the son of Hades. I happen to know him too."

"Really, who is it?" I said excitedly grabbing both her hands and jumping up and down.

"It just so happens to be your future boyfriend?" Leaf smirked. I swear she was getting more like Gary every day!

"Paul? No way! I can't get along with that guy!" I screamed.

"I never said it was Paul, but since you admit he is your future boyfriend…" Leaf's smirk grew wider (See what I mean? That's a good example of Garyness rubbing off on her!). I blushed. My face was probably redder than an apple. I started playing with the bracelet Aphrodite gave me.

"UGH, he's not my boyfriend!" I stomped my foot on the ground.

"Well, you're right, though. The son of Hades is Paul." Leaf said changing the subject.

"Really, I have to get along with that guy? Why me?" I said dramatically.

"Because your mom said so." Leaf replied.

"That sounds so weird." I said giggling.

"As weird as you having a dream with you meeting your mom?" Leaf retorted.

"Good point." I said.

Paul's POV

The teacher was boring me to death as usual. I had some notes scribbled in, but that was it. I was trying hard not to sleep in this class. I stared at my ring. The weird fact that I was so perfect for being a son of Hades was kind of ironic. I started twisting the ring carefully. I made sure I didn't put it in sword mode.

I looked over at the other side of me and saw that Ash was quietly sleeping (if snoring like a pig was quiet!). Being shorter than the person in front of you did have some good, I guess. I cursed under my breath.

"Freaking Hades, why is this class so boring?" I added another swear under my breath.

The bell rang. 'Thank god!' With that thought I headed to whatever boredom lay before me.

Troublesome was of course trying to get my attention for reasons unknown to me. It was getting harder and harder to ignore this girl. She was even jumping in front of my face. This girl is the definition of persistent.

"You know you're really annoying!" I growled.

"Ha, you talked to me!" Dawn said jumping up and down clapping. I rolled my eyes, but could feel a smile trying to pop out on my emotionless face. I quickly shook it off and started ignoring her again.

Dawn's POV

I thought I saw a flash of emotion on Paul's face, but it was probably my imagination because the next the time I looked at him he was back to his impassive face.

"Ugh, there is no winning with you is there?" I asked pouting. He didn't reply. I swear if I have to go on a journey with the jerk he'll be dead before we return back home and get the mirror back to my mom.

"Paul, I have something important to tell you! Can you just pay attention to me for a second?" I practically through a tantrum right there.

"What do you want?" He grumbled.

"Well, I want you to answer some questions.

Are you a son of Hades?" I said 'Hades' quietly. I put up one finger.

"Did your friend tell you?" He mumbled something that sounded a lot like killing Gary later on.

"Yes, Leaf, did tell me. Now that I know that,

My mom, Aphrodite, said you had something that could help me find her mirror. Do you have that something?" I asked putting up 2 fingers.

He sighed. "Meet me after school and then we'll go to my house and I'll go get it.

"Okay! Oh, before I forget I'm a daughter of Aphrodite." I said feeling satisfied that I got him to say more than a few words to me. He rolled his eyes, but I've learned to ignore those since he seems to roll his eyes every minute I see him.

"No, duh genius. I learned that the day you charmspeaked me."

"Wait, how do I know you're not lying to me about being son of Hades?" I said frowning.

"Fine, I'll show you that after school too." He was getting annoyed I could tell.


School ended faster than I thought. I waited outside of the school after telling my friends that I was staying after school to re-do some tests. Leaf saw right pass me, but didn't say anything. I could feel myself blushing when she smirked at me.

"Hey, I'm here. Let's get this over with." He said pulling his hands out of his pockets.

"What are you doing exactly?" I asked.

"Just watch." His hands started glowing an eerie purple color. The next thing I know a dead Pachirisu walks up to us bowing down to Paul.

"Eww, what is that thing?" I squealed clutching the closest thing to me (A tree) and squealing. Good thing Paul made me wait until there wasn't anyone else around or I would be so embarrassed.

"Relax, it's just a Pachirisu." He said, "Go back to your grave." Except it was in Greek and I could understand it!

"I knew that!" I got down from the tree.

"Sure you did." He put his hands back into his jean pockets and started walking.

"Where are you going?" I piped up.

"To my house unless you need more proof." He said getting his hands out again.

"No, that's okay I think I have enough proof to last a lifetime!" I ran up to him and started walking along with him.

Paul's POV

I have no idea what got me to even try to help her. That was a mistake I wasn't ever making again. She skipped the whole way there then something struck me. Lily! What's Lily going to say? Tell me she's with her bratty friends? Anywhere, but here! We arrived at my house. I unlocked the door and looked around. No Lily.

"Can I come in now?" Dawn suddenly asked.

"Sure." I grumbled. She walked in and looked around.

"Paul, are you home?" Lily's voice screeched through the whole house. 'Crap!'

Dawn's POV

I always thought Paul's house would be some kind of haunted mansion, but guess not. It was actually like any normal house. When I heard a little girl's voice that really got my attention.

"Paul, who's that?" I questioned.

"You're going to find out." As if on cue a little girl around the age of 6 or 5 came hopping down the stairs with pigtails. A black ribbon on the right one and a pink one on the left. She wore a matching black and pink polka dot dress to match.

"Aww, aren't you cute!" I ran up to her and hugged her. I couldn't help it she was just so adorable.

"Paul's who this and why is she hugging me?" She tried to pull away from me. I let go.

"Is she your girlfriend?" She asked smirking. I immediately blushed.

"Lily, this is none of your business." I could tell he was annoyed.

"Why, I have the right to know if you have a girlfriend?" She put her little arms on her hip.

"Hey, I'm not his girlfriend!" I protested.

"I knew it was too good to be true. I'm Paul's sister, Lily. Who are you anyway?" She asked.

"I'm Dawn. Paul needed to get me something." I said crouching down.

"Really, what is it?" She asked excitedly. 'How is she Paul's sister?'

"I don't know. I'm wondering the same thing." I shrugged.

"Paul, what is it that you needed to give me?" I asked.

"Just wait here. Lily, you behave." He said sternly like a parent.

"Make me!" She stuck out her tongue. Paul rolled his eyes and went up the stairs.

"So, tell me about yourself." She said sitting on a chair.

"What do you want to know?" I replied.

"Everything!" She said smiling.

"Well, my full name is Dawn Hikari; I'm an only child, my favorite color's pink, my favorite thing to do is shop 'til I drop, and I my worst nightmare is wearing unmatching clothes." I said thinking of anything else.

"Okay, my turn! My full name is Lillian Shinji and if you want to live you'll call me Lily. I have 1 brother, but no sisters, sadly. My favorite color is purple and that's it." She beamed at me again.

"Why do you want to know all of this?" I requested.

"Well, if you're Paul's girlfriend I want to know what kind of person you are, but I have to say you're pretty much the very opposite of Paul. I like that!" She said giggling.

I blushed, "Paul's not my boyfriend!" I protested.

"Aww, why not? You guys would be so cute together." She pouted giving me her puppy dog face.

I blushed a darker shade of red. 'She is nothing like Paul either!'

Paul's POV

I had to hurry and get that thing or else Lily's going to start telling Dawn my secrets. I dug through a box and found it. I walked down the stairs.

"Here, catch." I threw the black orb to Dawn. Dawn couldn't catch it, but Lily caught it with ease.

"Here you go, Dawn" She handed to orb to Dawn.

"Thanks." She said.

"Lily, time to get out." I said.

"Fine, I got what I needed anyway." She said sticking out her tongue at me and walking out of the room taking her time.

"Do you know how to use it?" I said turning to Dawn.

"No, can you show me?" She asked handing it to me.

"You just concentrate of the item you want to see and it'll appear." I said closing my eyes and imagining Lily. She was drawing with her crayons.

"Cool, can I try!" Dawn said ripping it out of my hands. She closed her eyes, but nothing came.

"Ugh, I can't do it!" She pouted.

"Try again at your house before my mom finds out I had a girl here."

"Why? Is she going to be mad?" Dawn looked guilty.

"No." I said and without saying bye I led her to the door and let her find her way home.

Dawn's POV

I was about to respond to Paul, but he shut the door in front of me. I felt somewhat hurt, but relieved since I didn't want to talk to Lily any further about my relationship with Paul. I started walking home. 'I hope I can figure this thing out.' I looked at the black orb that appeared to have smoke in it. I carefully put it in my bag hoping it wouldn't break.


I know what you guys are thinking. Paul is so OOC! I know, but you just treat your siblings different, you know? Anyhow, review pweez!
