~Normal POV~
"Hey Amu" Rima yelled to her best friend. Yaya waved at Amu. Yaya had just transfer schools to Seiyo. Amu ran over to Rima and Yaya.
"Hey" Amu greeted her friends.
"What's that?" Yaya asked as you continued sucking on her lollipop. Amu looked down at where Yaya was pointing at. It was a small box with chains on it and a strap. The strap was at Amu's waist.
"Oh this is where I put my charas in. I just bought it yesterday. Here meet my charas." Amu looked around, making sure no one was looking at her and then she opened the small box.
Out came a pink haired miniature person with a ponytail holding two pink cheerleading pom-poms and had a pink visor on. Next came a blue haired small person with a blue burette on her head and had an art bag hanging down from her neck and was holding a sketchpad. Then a blond hair girl with a frilly green dress and a white apron then out. Last came an orange hair girl with two ponytails and was wearing a yellow dress.
"Aw they're so cute." Yaya stared at the floating 4 girls.
"You have 4 charas?" Rima asked in disbelieve. She never saw Amu's charas before because Amu was protective of them.
"Yeah but I don't know why. I sometimes see people with one or two charas but never higher." Amu rubbed the back of her head.
"That's because people usually have one or two dreams or personalities but you have so many." Rima looked at Amu's charas.
"Well this is Ran," Amu pointed at the pink hair girl, "this is Miki," Amu showed Rima and Yaya the blue hair girl," this is Su," Amu bought the blond hair girl to the fount, "and this is Dia." Amu pointed at the orange hair girl.
"Wow. That's a lot. Well here is my chara." Rima got her chara and put her chara in fount of her friends.
"Hi I'm Kusukusu." The blond hair girl with a clown outfit smiled. Amu and Yaya smiled too.
"Well I better show you my chara too." Yaya said. She said something too fast for Rima and Amu to understand. Suddenly a girl with darkish orange hair in two ponytails like Yaya's and light blue eyes appeared. She was wearing a pink baby outfit with a white bib and a pink and white hat with bunny ears and a red ribbon on the side.
"I'm Pepe." She said.
"Aw so cute" Rima, Amu and their charas said.
"Well you guys better get in the box," Amu said to her charas," before somebody sees you." Ran got into the box and the others followed Ran. Amu closed the box once she made sure that they were safely in. She then turned to Rima and Yaya's chara.
"What about your chara? Why don't you hide them?" Amu asked in confusion.
"Because some people here also have charas. We have only one so it's okay for some people to see them but I think it's a good idea for you to hide your charas. You have 4 and that's not normal." Rima explained to Amu. Amu nodded as the school bell rang.
"Opps got to go now. Bye" Amu yelled as she ran toward her first class. Rima and Yaya walk to their class as students pushed younger students out of the way to get to their class.
…
Amu arrived in her science class and rushed over to an empty table. There was a rule in class that if you got an empty table with no one with you then you have to work on your project or whatever by yourself. Amu was fine with that since she hated when someone did the wrong thing. Besides no one wanted to sit next to the school loser. The teacher arrived late while holding a mug of steaming hot coffee. He set the mug down at his desk and started class without even taking the attendance. He started writing down questions on the blackboard and was talking about Chemistry. Nobody was listening. They were passing on notes, whispering, giggling and usually texting on their cell phones. Suddenly the teacher got a call.
"Well class I'll be right back. Use this time to study." He said before closing the door after him. The class suddenly exploded into laugher, yelling and shouting, spitballs and so on. The only person studying was Amu. She tried her hardest to study the words on the textbook in fount of her but she couldn't concentrate because sitting at the next table beside her was Ikuto. Right now 3 sluts were flirting with Ikuto.
'Come on. I know you remember me at the ball. I mean come on. I look the same just add a mask and dress."
"Have you forgotten me already? I lost my Ipod and you found it. Isn't it a miracle?"
"I'm your girl. I danced with you while I was wearing a purple dress."
"First of all I don't remember you because I didn't dance with you and second the girl I danced with was wearing a silver and gold dress. Good bye." Ikuto said.
Amu widened her eyes. Ikuto would never blow off a girl. Still the three girls tried to persuade Ikuto. Finally Amu couldn't stand it.
"Will you shut up already? Are you so desperate that you'll even try to seduce other guys at clubs?" Amu stood up and yelled at the three blond girls. Everybody in the class stopped talking and turned their heads to the conflict at the back of the classroom.
"Well at least we're not wearing things that are so old fashioned. What you do? Go back in time and steal those clothes from some old dude?" One of the blond girls sneered at Amu.
"At least I can still sing!" The words slipped past her lips. Amu couldn't help herself. She was venting out her annoyance and anger after all these years.
"You did not just say that we can't sing!" A blond girl on the left side of the one who talked to Amu cried.
"I can totally sing better than you." Amu said.
"Is that a challenge?" The first girl took a step forward. Everyone was out of their seats now.
"Of course not. It's a fact." Amu said plainly like it was nothing. Then all of a sudden the girl beside the first one shrieked and lunged at Amu. But then the first girl held her back.
"Don't do anything Amy. She won't learn her lesson if you do that. She needs to be taught that she's at the bottom of the food chain and we are at the top. Right Ikuto?" The first blond girl turned her head sharply at Ikuto.
"I don't care." Ikuto said simply. The first girl turned back at Amu and glared at her.
"Today, after school at the fount gates." She said sharply and walked up the aisle to her desk making sure to sway her hips. Amu rolled her eyes as the two other girls followed her like little puppies. Amu walked back to her desk and sat down.
The teacher then entered again and was shocked to find everyone at their desk waiting for him. He nervously walked over to the blackboard and it didn't help when he could feel more than 30 pairs of eyes follow his every movement. But he discovered that one person was not looking at him. He turned around and wasn't surprised to find Ikuto sleeping. He was about to scold Ikuto from the fount of the class when Amu threw an eraser at him. He woke up with a start and said,
"He ate the puppy with make up on." The class burst into laughter.
…
"Um Rima I have something to tell you." Amu said nervously.
"No need I already heard it." Rima waved Amu dismissally.
"Really? Did I tell you before?" Amu looked at Rima confused.
"No you didn't. It's all over the school now. You vs. Mi-su at singing." Rima said.
"So that's what her name was." Amu mumbled.
"I help you with the dance competition and now I have to help you with a singing competition. What next? A juggling competition?" Rima shake her head.
"Well as soon as I heard about the competition I knew you needed some help so I brought you some new clothes. I was hoping for something without a hood because you really need to show the world who you are. I mean so he breaks his promise. Just find another guy." Rima said.
"Is this lecture over?" Amu asked, clearly irritated.
"Sure." Rima replied cheerfully. "So here's what I got you. You need some nice clothes to even have a chance of winning." Rima gave Amu the bag.
"It's already the end of school and people are still waiting. Now get changed." Rima pushed Amu into an empty stall (They're in the girls bathroom). Amu closed the door. A moment later Amu's black hoodie draped over the stall door. Soon Amu came out. She was wearing grey high heel shoes and a grey skirt. She was also wearing a grey hoodie with black hearts on it. (Picture on profile)
"Now go out there and show them what you're made of." Rima pushed Amu out of the bathroom.
"Wait what about you?" Amu turned around and asked Rima through the blue doors of the bathroom that separated them.
"I'm coming. Just wait. You go first. You're already late." Rima called back. Amu stumbled forward and regained her composure. She started walking down the halls with the lights burning down on the ground creating shadows. She turned round the corner and then bumped into someone. She fell down hard on impact. After a moment she got up to find Utau.
"Hey watch where you're…" Utau stopped as she finally saw the charas.
"You have charas." Utau stared at the four floating mini people. Amu then realized that her hood was off. She quickly put it back up but not before Utau glazed at Amu's light bubblegum color hair.
"Pinky-chi?" Utau gasped and whispered the words, wondering if she was dreaming.
"Puriti-chi?"(I think that's how to say pretty in Japanese) Amu couldn't believe it. Right in fount of her was her long lost best friend. Amu quickly hugged Utau. (Amu didn't know that Utau was her best friend because Utau was mean and because when Utau was younger her hair was a brighter blond and was short to her chest.)
"What happened to you?" Utau glanced down at her best friend's face.
"Step-family. What happened to you? How come you never told me you were living here?" Amu asked.
"Because I never could find you. Wait till I tell Ikuto." Utau said, clearly happy with her find.
"Wait." Amu grabbed Utau's hands.
"Don't tell him about me." Amu said looking down at the floor.
"Why not?" Utau looked at Amu. Utau then crouched down next to Amu waiting for her answer. Amu sighed and told Utau her story.
"That stupid jerk!" Utau balled her fist and got up.
"Wait. Leave him alone. Don't tell him about me." Amu said quietly.
"Okay." Utau said.
"Well come on." Utau said.
"Where?" Amu looked up at the blond girl.
"To the competition. You have some bitches to knock down." Utau said. Amu smiled and got up. Amu then put on her hood again and she and Utau, holding hands as best friends strode down the halls and outside to the fount gate. The first thing they saw was a huge crowd. Already on a set up stage was Mi-su with a purple shirt and a black mini skirt. The crowd was already making bets. Most of the bets were leaning on Mi-su's side but few leaned on Amu's side. The crowd cleared a path for Amu as she came closer but few tried to trip her. She jumped over their waiting foot and got up the stage.
"Now you all heard by now what's happening here. If you don't then I'll tell you. Today we have two students sing to see who the best singer is." The DJ said loudly into the microphone. "We have Amu and Mi-su here with us today. I'll be the DJ today. First up is Mi-su." Lots of the students started cheering loudly. Mi-su said "move over" at Amu by glaring at her. Amu moved to the side of the stage. Mi-su handed a CD to the DJ. He popped it in and soon music blasted through the area. Mi-su then started singing.

The crowd stared at Mi-su. They knew Mi-su could sing but they never heard it till now. Suddenly the bets started turning. The vote all poured onto Mi-su's side. As Mi-su left the stage, she passed Amu with a smug smirk. Amu just ignored it and got to the stage.
She handed the DJ a CD. As the music started she froze. Amu then remembered that she didn't have any lyrics for the music yet. More than 30 seconds passed and the DJ asked Amu if she wanted to wait for a few minutes. Amu nodded and got off the stage.
"You already quitted? Guess I already won." Mi-su said as she was with her group of girls. Amu just glared at her and went to Utau.
"What happened? You just froze up there." Utau asked.
"I forgot that I didn't have lyrics for the song yet. I made the music three weeks ago at Rima's house and didn't have time to write some lyrics." Amu said. "I'm going to lose this contest before I even try." Amu started to tear up.
"Amu." Utau grasped Amu's shoulders and shake them. "What happened to the girl who never gives up? The girl who doesn't even cry?" Utau said. Amu pointed at herself.
"That's right. Now get out there and show them what you're made of." Amu smiled and even beamed when she caught a glimpse of Rima. She hurried up the stage and nodded to the DJ.
"Now here's Amu." The DJ said simply. Few cheered her on but she still got up and ignored the fact. The music then started.

The crowd's mouths were open. Who knew Amu could sing this good. Her voice was like an angel.
"I think we all know the winner here, don't we?" The DJ said to the crowd. They nodded. "The best winner here was… Hinamori Amu!" He yelled and Utau and Rima started cheering and even the crowd cheered. Mi-su's face was red with rage.
"I guess I won." Amu said to Mi-su with a smug smirk.
