HappyJunjou: Again, Sorry for the late update and the Tadase bashing. I guess I went a little too far .

Kiseki: Now bow down to the king!

HappyJunjou: No way! I said I was going to be way nicer, not worship you!

Amu: So about that Halloween chapter...

HappyJunjou: Yeah, I'm thinking of putting that up on Halloween so it'll come out right after the 14th chapter (I hope)

Ikuto: I get a long part in this chapter, right?

HappyJunjou: Yup. Ikuto is a sneaky cat...

Ikuto: Anything else you want to say?

HappyJunjou:...

Everyone: Well?

HappyJunjou: *pouts* Fine. I actually really like Amu as a charcter and Tadase's good too. They wouldn't make that bad of a couple if Ikuto wasn't so good with Amu.

Amu: Thank you, Happy! Except for that last sentence...

HappyJunjou: Well, I got nothing else to say so...

Rikka: My first disclaimer part! Yay! HappyJunjou doesn't own Shugo Chara!

***Chapter 13***

Fire & Water

"So Aiko is actually Ai and she's with Easter? She is just using similar methods that Easter has used with Utau. Except this time it's acting." Tadase briefly summed up. We all nodded in agreement.

"I don't think we should let her know just yet that we know about Aiko. If we do, she'll suspect us and know exactly how to defeat us." Amu said.

"I think Easter has a few more tricks up their sleeves this time." a familiar voice warned. Amu stared up trying to find where the voice came from, and as suspected it came from a tree not to far away.

"Ikuto onii-chan!" Tadase exclaimed (A/N: Sorry again for bashing at Tadase and Amu in the disclaimer last time! . Truth is, don't really mind Amu. She's actually a really good heroine! ^.^)

Ikuto swung down from the tree with cat ears popping out from behind his head. Utau followed, coming in from the door with Kukai beside her.

"Amu told us all about Easter and Aiko." Kukai explained. We all glared at Amu accusingly. She sweatdropped and apologized for letting the secret out, but we decided to forgive her anyways.

"As long as no one mentioned anything to Ai about Aiko, we're fine."

"Besides that, we also have to discuss graduations." Nagihiko said. Tadase nodded.

"We will soon all be graduating, except Yuiki-san who will most likely remain ace's chair. That means that we will need more candidates for guardians." Tadase explained.

"What about Hikaru and Rikka?" Yaya asked.

"We don't know if their eggs will hatch yet."

"Does that mean that we won't see each other that often anymore?" Yaya whined.

"Probably." I replied. She pouted.

"That's not fair."

"Exactly what I was thinking." Tsukasa said, popping out of no where, "I decided to extend the guardians to both the Elementary and Middle School. So now there will only be guardians of Seiyo! I'm also thinking about making new guardian positions."

"Yay!" Yaya cheered, "Now we can all stay together for a few more years!"

*******************************

***Nagi POV***

After school, I asked Ikuto if we could talk. For some reason, I felt like he knew something about Aiko or could figure something out. It's great that we can all stay together for a while, but aside from that it seems everyone but me forgot Ikuto's warning.

"Hey! We didn't forget!" Utau accused approaching me with Kukai following her. Why was he always following her anyways?

"I'm forced to, because Tsukasa told me too." Kukai explained as if he read my mind.

"Well, let's hurry up and ask Ikuto what we need to know!" Utau ordered. So, we went to find Ikuto outside the school gates.

"What do you need to know kiddies?"

"What were you trying to warn us about earlier?" Utau demanded, getting right to the point. Ikuto smirked.

"I guess you have a right to be prepared. After all I'm on Amu's side." He hesitated for a minute. "Hikaru isn't in charge of Easter anymore." He whispered.

"A new company took it down, and he was forced to sell it to them. The new director is Ai's dad who gave the company over to her, after she explained the story of the embryo to him. He can see eggs, but has no interest in the embryo."

"So Ai's in charge of Easter now?" I asked in disbelief. He nodded.

"I wonder what she's planning to do?" Kukai thought aloud.

"Make my life hell." I answered for him. He laughed.

"So it's only going to affect you? I'm totally fine with that!"

"Why do we need to make such a big deal out of this if she's only out to get you?" Utau sighed.

"She also wants shrimp dead." Ikuto added.

"What?!" We all screamed.

"Follow me."

He started showing us the way to the new Easter Company, explaining what he knew along the way.

"I was hanging out around here" He started.

"Like a stray cat." Utau snickered. He shot her a quick glare and she giggled.

"As I was saying before, I was hanging around here cause I smelt some fish nearby, and then I saw a limo pull up and the famous Aiko came out. I was wondering what she was doing around this dump of an apartment, so I followed her inside keeping myself well hidden. Fortunately she didn't notice I was sneaking around. She took off her disguise and I noticed it was that annoying high pitched girl who's always hanging around girly boy."

"Nagihiko." I corrected with a hint of annoyance in my voice. He shrugged and continued.

"She kept discussing with the other 4 kids there about destroying the guardians and getting he embryo. At first I thought that she was just being like the previous embryo obsessed Easter. They'd have many failed attempts and weren't really that dangerous, but this isn't the case. That annoying girl seems to really hate shrimp (A/N: Rima. It's just Ikuto's nickname for her cause she's short.) and she'll do anything to get rid of her. For some reason she thinks that if she kills her it'll benefit her by getting rid of her rival and make the rest of you be way too depressed to fight anymore."

"What the hell?! That's the most stupid idea ever!" Utau protested.

"She's can't do that!" I exclaimed.

"Can't you just tell her not too? She loves you doesn't she?" Kukai suggested. I shook my head.

"She likes me, but that doesn't mean she'd do whatever I say. She'd think that I'm mistaken and do it her way anyways. There's nothing we can do."

"Yes there is! We can protect Rima and fight against Easter!" Utau shouted, "Ikuto, Kukai, and I will help you guys!"

"I guess so." Ikuto shrugged, "But it's not going to be that easy." We all turned and gave him a "no duh" look.

"You'll see what I mean! It's serious this time! Come with me!" He led us inside the building, checking for security guards or anyone watching. The coast was clear. He brought us to a room full of computers. There was a big projector at the middle of the room, and on the projector was...

"Us?" Ikuto nodded.

"Yeah. Sorry kiddies, but we all got ourselves some stalkers. They got tracking devices on us too, but there too small to see so I don't know where."

"Don't they know that we're here right now then?" Utau asked.

"Nope. I knocked the guy following us out before I even started talking about Easter." Ikuto replied.

"Why do you think they're doing this?" I asked.

"I never imagined being stalked. What if they kidnap me or something?" Kukai rambled to himself.

"They're reading our every move so they know how to take us out." Ikuto replied with a sigh, "They know how to defeat us...we're screwed if we don't figure out how to defeat them." We're screwed.

Shugo Chara Party episode 4...

Shugo Chara Party: Okay, I'm fed up with Shugo Chara Egg. These new Eggs are annoying me. Seriously, H!P? Gimme back Kanyon, Dawa, and Yukarin! . (Fukuda Kanon, Wada Ayaka, and Maeda Yuuka!) Akari makes an okay spade, but the Shugo Chara Egg corner just makes them seem retarded. Copme back old Shugo Chara Egg! Why can't Yuuka, Kanon, and Ayaka be in both Shugo Chara Egg and S/mileage? Okay, I'm done ranting about this ^.^

Shugo Chara Puchi Puchi: Kiseki lost his crown? Shugo Bomber? Bombjer? Enough of this! . Some of this stuff is funn, but mostly annoying and retarded! It isn't fair to spend 10-13 minutes of the whole episode on these tiny skits! I wanna watch Shugo Chara, not the guardian characters do weird stuff! Although the thing with Su crying to get Ran and Miki to say Bombjer was pretty manipulative and hilarious.

Shugo Chara Doki Doki: It was a filler about a rabbit. Rabbits are my favorite animals but this was just plain annoying. Eough with fillers! Let's get on to some hard core action! The only highlight of this episode was that little bit of HikaruxRikka. Otherwise, I think I was a little bored with this. I understand that Tsukasa made Hikaru do this to learn how to love or something like that, but that was really annoying.

HappyJunjou: So basically this episode was a minus for me. I didn't really like it.

Hikaru: I liked it. I was the main character.

HappyJunjou: Hikaru's awesome and all, but that was really annoying! .

Hikaru: Review please. I hope someone actually appreciates that episode.
