Ameyuki couldn't figure out why Agito wanted her to meet him back at the school, but as she thought about it, a small smirk curved upon her lips. She couldn't help, but feel that the next day was going to be entertaining.

She jumped from the school's roof and gracefully landed on the ground. Though, she didn't want to, she skated back towards her sister's house. Her job was done for the night and she was a bit tired from the two previous fights she was engaged in.

She glided up to the front of her home, hesitating to open the door. So, instead, she jumped up high and landed on the balcony in front of her room. She quietly slid open the door and skated inside. The moment she slid the door closed, her lights were switched on. She turned around a bit surprised to see her older sister's boyfriend Shin standing in her doorway. She stared at him with no emotion in her eyes and her body motionless.

"You've been out fighting in those gang wars, haven't you?" He asked her, with a hint of anger in his voice. He tried to hide it, but Ameyuki could hear it.

She crossed her arms against her chest again and leaned on her right leg.

"So? Why do you care?" She asked him.

Shin quickly walked up to her and smacked her in her face with his fist. Her head was forced to turn to the side due to the rough impact. Ameyuki turned her face back to Shin and glared at him. Her left cheek was red and throbbing. His fist left a stinging sensation. Blood trickled down the side of her lips, but she wiped it away with her right thumb.

"Stupid bitch, don't get smart with me!" He snapped at her.

"The only reason why me and your sister let you stay here was because your sister was gonna be worried about you. I can still easily kick your ass out my house!"

"It would be better than living in this hell with Satan's son." She replied back to him harshly.

Shin smacked her again on the same cheek that was still throbbing. Ameyuki didn't flinch a muscle.

"You hate living here? Then get out!" He yelled at her.

"Fine bitch", Ameyuki said to him as she pushed past him, grabbed a pair of extra clothes that was similar to what she already wore and skated out of her room. When she got to the top of the staircase, Shin pushed her. Ameyuki fell down the stairs and roughly landed on her stomach. She slowly got up and turned around. She flipped Shin off and headed out the front door. Her sister Yumi called out her name, but Yuki ignored her.

She glided through the streets, thinking of her sister. She couldn't understand why she loved him so much. She would never understand those kinds of feelings. She cares for her sister. That's why she puts up with Shin, but she can't take it anymore. Yumi knows Shin's abusive nature. He once beat her up once before, but Ameyuki saved Yumi and fought with Shin, which is probably why he hates her. Why love a guy that abuses you? What's the point? She just couldn't understand it.

She headed back to Higashi Junior High and decided to sleep there. She snuck in through one of the open windows and landed into the science room. She glided out of the classroom and down the hall, observing everything she passed by. She felt so nostalgic. She used go to this junior high a few years ago. She was struggling a couple of times with her grades, but she managed to pull through it. She decided to stay on the rooftop, since there was plenty of space to relax.

When she made it to the roof, she changed into the clothes she brought and lied down on the concrete ground. Her body turned to her side as her head rested on her arms. The night was warm, so Ameyuki could sleep peacefully, but the next day she woke up to hearing a few voices. Her amber eyes fluttered open slowly. She sat up, rubbing her eyes. Both of her arms outstretched up in stretch as her mouth emitted a yawn. She glanced around, until the door in front of her slowly opened. She widened her eyes and quickly jumped up and hid in the shadows. Her back leaned up against the wall as she watched a group of middle school student walk over to where she was.

One was a guy and had oddly colored spiky dark blue hair. She squinted eyes just to make sure she wasn't seeing things, but she saw a small crow nesting in his head. Her brows furrowed as she cocked her head to the side. What an odd boy. The one next to him was a girl. She had dark pink hair that was in two pigtails. She wore glasses. From her point of view she couldn't see the color of her eyes. She looked normal. Next to the girl was a boy with light colored hair, not necessarily a blonde, maybe light brown and had blue colored eyes. He wore a white beanie hat on his head. Next to him was another girl with short black hair. She clinged onto his arm, giggling. They looked like an adorable couple. Next to her was another girl, dark hair in a long ponytail. Next to the girl was a very short guy. He had a shaved head. She widened her eyes when they traveled down to his lips.

"Damn those are huge!" She whispered quietly.

Next to the one with big lips was a huge bald guy with dark skin like hers and pretty purple eyes. The last guy she saw made her gasp a bit.

"Agito..?" She thought.

"I didn't know he went to this school..." She thought again.

"Wait…"

She stared back at the dark blue haired boy.

"He has a crow nesting in his head. Could he be Ikki Minami?"

"If he's Ikki, then that group must be Kogarasumaru."

Ameyuki thought it was a weird looking group, but they all looked like nice people.

She closed her eyes let out a huge sigh of relief when she realized they haven't noticed her yet.

"What are you doing here?" asked a familiar dark voice.

Ameyuki jumped in surprise and squeaked a bit. She opened her eyes to see Agito leaning on the same wall next to her.

"How did you know I was here?" She asked, her heart beat fast, but calming down slowly.

"I heard you whispering to yourself."

"You have sharp ears, Agito-kun."

He flinched when he heard her say "kun", but ignored it.

"I was resting on the roof, before you guys came in. When I heard the door open, I jumped up and hid behind this wall. I didn't want anyone catching me."

"Why are you sleeping on the roof? Don't you have a home?" He asked.

Wait, why did he ask her that? Could he actually be concerned about her?

Ameyuki stared down at her feet, fidgeting with her fingers.

"I was kicked out by my sister's boyfriend." She answered him whispering.

Agito stared at her face and noticed that her left cheek was bruised. He found himself grazing it lightly, causing her face to flinch to his touch. Her cheek was still sore, but it wasn't throbbing anymore. Her body kept still, surprisingly enjoying the feel of Agito's warm touch.

"Did your sister's boyfriend do that to you?" He asked her.

She stayed silent. Agito took her silence as a yes.

"Why don't you kick his ass? I know you easily can." Agito asked.

"He's not worth my strength. He's a pussy that beats on defenseless women. He first started out beating my sister, but I stepped in and fought him, trying to keep him from hurting Yumi anymore than he did."

"Plus, his sissy punches don't hurt me." She scoffed.

"They felt like a little girl was slapping me."

Her comment made Agito stifle a chuckle.

"Anyways, since I'm here. What did you want me to meet you for?" She asked him.

"You're not part of any team, aren't you?" He asked her.

She shook her head from side to side.

"No, why?"

"You're a high class rider that owns a turf that could help Kogarasumaru rise up."

"Where are you going with this?" She asked him, getting impatient.

"How about joining our team?" He finally asked her.

Ameyuki stared at Agito surprised at what he asked her.

"You want me to join your team?"

Agito nodded.

"Yeah…."

"AGITO-KUN..!" called out a cheery voice.

Agito growled a bit at being called "kun".

The dark blue haired boy Ameyuki saw earlier walked over to them.

"Who's the hot chick you're talking to you? Your girlfriend?" He asked him, teasing him a bit.

"She's not my girlfriend, Crow!" He snapped at her.

Though it shocked him, why was he getting so defensive about being teased about Ameyuki being his girlfriend?

"Oh? Then she's single?" He looked at her, with slight interest in his voice.

Agito punched him in his stomach.

"Quit flirting with her! I asked her to join our team." He got straight to the point.

"What? Why?"

"She's Kageryu, the high class rider. She owns downtown Shinjuku-ku. If we have her on our team, she could help us rise to a higher class." Agito explained to the dark blue haired boy.

He pondered a bit, before agreeing with Agito.

He stared back at Ame and waited for an answer.

"So, how about it? Join our group" The dark haired suggested to her.

Ameyuki stared back down at her feet and carefully thought about Agito's offer. She tried to think of the consequences of joining a team in a lower class than her, but she couldn't think of any. She didn't really care for classes. She just enjoyed air trecks and fighting as her hobby. She stared back up at Agito, finally making her decision.

What will her decision be?
