Hey everyone...

So, I edited some stuff with this story especially with the pairing. I just realized that I sucked royally in the grammar and I didn't know then that the tense is supposed to be past tense.

I didn't edit everything, mind you. I'm a loyal slacker so I guess you could see that in the story. I think I started in chapter 2 with the major editing...

Anyway, I've written two new chapters after a very long hiatus (sorry i didn't warn any of the guys waiting for almost a year-major problems came up in my family and school). Second year high school was hectic in Phil-Sci. At least in my third year this year, it won't be so hectic.

I'm done with promising you guys for a certain time for my update. I'm done with breaking my promises. I can't even tell you guys how sorry I am.

Since those who had been waiting for this story to update probably got sick of waiting, I'm just going to say sorry and i hope you'll forgive me. To those who had been reading my stories and making Story Alerts and some even gave a few reviews, thanks a lot. I really appreciate it.

P.S. : This note is just going to repeat from the first chap until the 22nd chapter of my story.

Chapter 4 – A talk with someone close

11:46 am

When I went to the cafeteria, I saw that there's only a few of us here, namely me, the other five, some of the Dark Sky, and a few people who liked to eat their lunch early (pigs). I saw Shouda look at me and I posed my hand the same way I posed it in the classroom. She nodded and made an excuse which made her pass by the others while her lips moved a little. Good little girl.

I quickly grabbed two burgers with little mayonnaise, two large fries, and two diet cokes. I paid for it and walked briskly outside. When I was outside, I looked around for possible witnesses—none—and ran as if my life depended on it towards the Science building. I looked for each room if there's somebody watching—none—and ran towards the elevator to the roof (there's a staircase but I'm kinda in a hurry).

I reached the roof and walked to the door which led to the outside of the roof. I looked at my watch, 11:59:55 am. Five seconds before I'll be late. I quickly opened the door and saw the glass cover of the roof, exotic plants that surrounds the perimeter of the roof, a square table with two chairs facing each other (made of expensive mahogany wood), and near it was Futon looking at his watch while a smirk was plastered on his face while standing.

"12:00:00 pm. Always on time, aren't you, sis?" he said while walking towards me with an outstretched fist.

"Hmph, well, yeah, I have a tendency to do that, bro," I said while I pounded my fist with his and grinned.

"How about we eat and talk?" he said. I could see that he's hungry (I could also here his stomach growl like an animal).

"Yeah, yeah," I muttered and whispered "piggy".

Okay, here's the deal, we aren't siblings. We're cousins. How's that so? My father and his father were brothers, they were the only kids of my deceased grandfather (I miss you, gramps! ). He didn't have a sister because his mom already passed away when an accident happened to her (I miss you, too, auntie Shika! ) about when he's still five. Poor guy. So, I happened to be his sister material (as he put it) and we acted to be bro's and sis's. Oh, I did have a brother but I guess he's still in Europe working for the family.

"You said something, sis?" Futon asked suspiciously.

"Oh, nothing. I just said that you are so handsome," I said sarcastically.

"Yeah, I get that a lot of times," he retorted back.

"Oh yeah, you better brief me with the things that happened when I was gone," he added.

30 minutes later

"That's what's been happening? Ha, talk about great experience!" he commented while eating his fries and laughing.

"You know what, if you're gonna laugh like that, you're gonna choke on your food," I pointed out while I took a sip of my coke. Some of the stuff he ate flew to my arm and I flicked it away casually.0

"Yeah, yeah," he said and put down his fries.

"And would you please keep it a secret? What is the point of keeping it a secret when you're telling everyone what we are? And if you're gonna talk, I swear, I'm not gonna talk to you forever," I pleaded while threatening him.

"Sure, sure. Didn't I tell you not to worry? Geez, give me a break will ya?" he said while smiling reassuringly, knowing that I don't joke about things no matter how insignificant. Of course, there are some exceptions.

"Thanks, bro," I said and lied back while eating my fries.

"Oh yeah, I just remembered. It seems that Koko and Kitsuneme were happy to be here but then went down the drain. Was it because of the girls?" I asked while my eyes glinted mischievously.

"Yeah, so you noticed, huh?" he chortled.

"Sigh, they still ain't over them, eh? Stubborn guys," I also chuckled remembering the times.

"Tch, well, they're still trying," he muttered sarcastically.

"What do you mean?" I asked curiously.

"When we are sometimes practicing, they space out like idiots. And when we ask them, they say, 'how do you think they're doing? I hope they remember me'. Really, they sometimes bug us but it's still hilarious," he said while laughing at the memory.

I also can't help but laugh.

"But I'm sure you didn't notice this. Ruka and Natsume are looking for their special some ones. I'm not really sure, but I bet my car that they're here," he said but he didn't stop snickering.

"Really…? Who?" I asked curiously again. You know what they say, good gossip is good gossip.

"Well…, that's somethin' I ain't supposed to tell 'cause that'll break our trust with each other. By the way, when's your practice?" he questioned.

I looked at my watch. 12:45:37 pm.

"Oh it starts in 14.13 minutes. I gotta go, bro. Need to set things up, you know," I bade while walking towards the door.

"Yeah, and say hi to your friends for me, will ya? And I'll try to go this weekend," he called out.

"Don't worry about that. I'll arrange it," I said over my shoulder and sprinted towards the girls' dorm.

Girl's Dorm

As I reached the girl's dorm, I looked out for anyone suspicious and sneaked to the back of the dorm. I reached out to the branch of a tree nearby and pulled it down. It went down with a click and I watched as the bush near the dorm slid up and slid to the left to reveal a square opening leading downwards. The sides of the opening were titanium metal alloys and the stairs were composed with titanium also. The opening closed and white light instantly illuminated the whole place. I quickly went down until I reached the big metallic door with a blue pad at the side. The pad was glowing to life and I put my right hand on it lightly. A green line went up and down on my hand and then beeped. I withdrew my hand while the pad opened up to reveal an eye scanner. I took off my glasses and my contacts and neared my eye to the scanner. The machine beeped like last time and I stepped back. 2 seconds later, the door opened and I entered. When I entered, the door closed while the lights came to life showing the place I love so much.
