And now, the inner thoughts of NinjaSnail: (a.k.a a chronic procrastonator)
Suddenly, a thought goes into the writer's head:
Ninja Snail: Hmm. Haven't checked Scars in a while. Wonder how that's doin'. :)
Ninja Snail goes onto Fanfiction to check her story.
Ninja Snail: I mean, it's not like the story was really popular...
She attempts to login
Ninja Snail: Oh yeah. I forget my password... a lot...

chloboo chapter 3 . Jan 19
its been past tomorrow woman! :D
Ninja Snail: Holy *instert curse word here*! I'm a terrible person!
Ninja lays her head on her desk and begins to cry all "Chibi-Like."
Ninja Snail: Oh chloboo.. Your condescending happy face really makes me want to die... :'(
Ninja then blacks out from the shock of her own irresponsibility, but is then awoken by a suddenly loud SLAM of a door being opened.
Misaki: THERE YOU ARE! I HAVE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER FOR YOU, YOU IDIOT! WHERE WERE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FINISH THE STORY A WHOLE YEAR AGO!
In the background a huge, gigantic, humongous, house of cards falls because of Misaki's sudden, loud entrance.
Ninja Snaps awake.
Ninja Snail: I-I was.. um... I... Uh... *whimper*
Misaki: SPEAK CLEARLY WHEN YOU TALK TO ME AND LOOK ME IN THE EYES!
Ninja Snail: Hai!
Misaki: Now apologize to the people who put up with your past writing and terrible grammar failures!
Ninja bows on the floor, over and over. Smacking her head on the floor while crying.
Crybaby Ninja Snail: I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! I'm so very sorry! ;_;
Misaki: YOU THINK THAT IS ENOUGH YOU LITTLE PORKCHOP! WAIT TILL I BRING OUT MY FISTS AND BEAT YOU TO A PULP!
Ninja: Forgive me! Please I'll do anything! I promise! Don't hurt me!
Before Misaki can smack some sense into the Crybaby NinjaSnail, A sudden force holds Misaki back.
Misaki: What the-?!
Before Misaki can finish her sentence a sudden laughter interupts.
Usui: Come on Misa-chan. Don't you think Ninja has learned a lesson?
Misaki: No, Now let go of me you perverted alien! And where the heck did you come from?!
Usui: I came fro where I came from, Misa-chan. Now why don't we let the little Ninja go?
Misaki: But if we do that then she will-!
Usui interupts Misaki's sentence by putting a finger on her lips.
Usui: Shhh... Didn't Ninja say she would do anything?
Misaki: Oh yeah... Anything... :D
Ninja at this point, still has her head bowed down and a chill runs through her spine by just thinking of what they are plotting to do to her.
Usui: Anything...
Misaki: Heh... BAKA USUI! You Pervert!
Misaki then attempts to hit Usui in the face for being a pervert.
Usui grabs Misaki's hand and redirects her into a hug.
Miskai: Let go of me you perverted idiot from space!
Usui: Misa, don't be silly. I would only do things like that to you.
At this statement, Misaki's face grows a crimson red.
Misaki: Idiot! Let go!
Usui: Now like I was saying, let's make her continue on with Scars
At this suggestion Misaki breaks free of Usui's hug and begins to smirk.
Misaki: Not a bad idea Usui... Not a bad idea...
The two superhumans gaze down on Ninja with a menacing glare.
Ninja: What have I gotten myself into?
The Usui and Misaki looked at each other and then back at Ninja.
Misaki&Usui: Hell.
So yeah. I will try my hardest to continue the story under Usui and Misaki's supervision. Heck. But I did make an agreement with them that I can take breaks and skip some days because of schoolio. But other than that, I have to finish this story.
I also send out a MASSIVE apology to those who have been let down or disappointed because of my failure in updates. From now on I will really try. I hope. :/
Love you all, and I'll see you next update!
*instert random heart here*
Oh yeah and I apologize if there are any grammar errors/spelling erros. It is currently very late at night and I kinda wanted to send this out to you all ASAP!
And one more thing, my "m" key on my keyboard sucks because I have to press it even harder to make the key actually work. So I also apologize if there happen to be any words that are missing an "m."
Gosh I am full of "sorrys" tonight. Ah well. It needed to be done. And here it is.

Misaki's P.O.V
Yawn. Ugh... What time is it?
I stretched and yawned as I lazily began to rub the sleep out of my eyes. Yesterday was so tiring. I mean, yeah I have to deal with people like them all the time but, I've never been this tired in a long time.
Come to think of it, the last time I was this tired was when I was in high school. Always studying, getting good grades, trying to be top dog.
Too bad that all went to crap when my Dad...
No! Stop thinking about it. Screw the past, just look at the future Misaki! Fight!
I formed back into reality when I glanced at the clock, it was 9:26 am. Ahh. It's such a nice morning. I mean just look at how great the weather looks outside the window-
Wait. WHAT?
I abruptly averted my gaze from to window and back at the clock.
9:26 am.
I slept later than usual.. I usually get up at around 5:00 am to start my day off nice and easy. Not that many people are up around that time so it makes it easier to change into Raven...
But I had slept in. I need to get up..
"Get up!" I yelled at myself as I plowed through my blankets to stand up and get ready.
Uh-Oh. I had gotten up too fast. Crap!
I began to sit back down and tried to not think about the feeling of blood rushing to my head.
"Onee-chan?"
I heard Suzuna's sudden footsteps approach to where I was sitting on the couch.
"Oh. Hi. Suzuna. Good Morning." I said to her, still kinda embarrassed about my predicament.
"Onee-chan, breakfast is ready." Suzuna replied to me with a smile on her face.
"Ah, okay." I said, kinda awkward-like.
Suzuna and I get along and all, don't get me wrong. It's just that there is some awkwardness when it comes to the topic of Dad. She trusted him, and I guess she never really got over how he betrayed us.
But you know what, I won't let Dad get in between us. Screw him. We don't need him anymore.
"Onee-chan." Suzuna's calm voice interrupted my thought process, "Come on over to the table so we can eat."
"Okay!" I said over enthusiastically.
I sat up after the feeling of blood rushing to my head was gone and started to follow Suzuna in silence towards the table.
You know, this was a rare occasion. I never really has time to spend with Suzuna because of my daily schedule, so doing this with her is really refreshing.
As Suzana and I took our seats at the table across from each other, I began to take my surrounding as realize that Suzuna made one hell of a meal.
The food on the table consisted of at least 20 pounds of fried rice, 30 liters of miso soup, some homemade pickles that Suzuna probably made from this morning, and of course some green tea.
"Holy crap! Suzuna where did you get all this food!?" Not that I was complaining or anything, I could eat all of this because of my hefty appetite, but wow was this a lot of food compared to the little money we had.
"I won it all in a competition that I saw in the mail a few weeks ago." Suzuna replied nonchalantly.
Oh yeah, I forgot. Suzuna partakes in random competitions, that she happens to be very good at, and wins all the stuff she can get to contribute to our family.
I can't believe I forgot something that Suzuna loves to do so much. I mean, she even remembered to prepare all this food for me because I eat a lot.
"Oh yeah that's right." I said, beginning to feel guilty for forgetting, "Well, I suppose it's worth it."
After a long pause I decided I should stop dwelling on feeling guilty, and enjoy my time with Suzuna while it lasted.
"Itadakimasu." Suzuna and I said in unison.
I looked up at Suzuna the same time she looked at me.
"It's been a long time, hasn't it." Suzuna had a sad look on her as she spoke, "We haven't been together like this in a long time. I'm happy."
I noticed that there were tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
"Suzuna.." I spoke softly, while standing up to move closer to her to give her a hug.
"But no matter what happens," Suzuna paused in between her sentence, trying to stifle a sob, "We're still sisters? Right?"
"Yeah. Forever, and nothing can change that." I hugged her, trying to hold back tears while she cried.
We sat there for a long time, holding each other. Trying to make up for all the lost time that we never had together. Trying to get closer to each other and put our trust in each other again.
Just trying to be sisters again.
"I love you." I said to her as I held her tight.
"I love you too." She said back, now no longer crying as hard.
"No let's eat before all this food you made gets cold." I said in a cheerful voice.
"Yeah, that would be nice." Suzuna let go of me as I let go of her, and I moved my tea over to were I was sitting so I could be closer to her.
Throughout breakfast, the clock ticked and ticked. I ended up staying there for a whole two hours, but it was worth it.
"When is mom going to be back?" I question Suzuna as we literally just began to clean the breakfast after two hours. I had saved some food for mom whenever she got home.
"She tends to get home at around 8:00 at night." Her words seemed to have sympathy in them for mom, "Sometimes she even comes home around 9:00 or so."
"What time does she get home?" I knew mom worked a lot but this was ridiculous. She wasn't in the apartment when I had waken up today.
"The time she leaves can vary too. Sometimes it's 7:00 when she leaves and other times it could be at least 8:00."
Yup. It's settled, my mom works her ass off for at least 12 hours a day.
I need to add "find a job with even better pay and not as harsh working conditions for my mom" A.S.A.P.
"Mom really is amazing. Huh?" Suzuna said after we were done with the dishes.
"Yeah."
I was starting to feel a little down because I needed to go out. I have never been home this late in a long time, for it was 1:34 in the afternoon, and I needed to get a move on.
"Hey Suzuna."
"I know, I know. You need to leave for work, right?"
"Yeah."
"Alright then. Stay safe when you're out building those buildings.! Said Suzuna as she dried off her hands from washing the dishes. "I'm going to head downstairs and get the mail to check to see if there are any recent competitions for broccoli."
"I know, I know." I replied, as I shrugged on my everyday grey hoodie and jeans when I was going to go "build houses."
I began to head towards the front door when a sudden thought came to my head.
"Hey Suzuna!" I yelled out.
"Yes?"
"Next time, you need to teach me how to make some bunny apples!" I laughed a little bit inwardly remembering how we used to eat mom's ever so famous bunny apples.
"Sure thing!" Suzuna exclaimed.
And with that, I left the house. Feeling indifferent.
I had to lead so many double lives, and tell so many lies to protect the ones I love. But, it's worth it.
Mom and Suzuna don't really know about what I do, all they know is that I work in a pretty bad area and that I work as a construction worker. But that's about it.
My mom used to worry so much about me, I had to show her how I can use self defensive in a class that she took me to, insisting I learn. But I couldn't let her spend all that money on me.
And I figured since she worried so much as to me being a construction worker, that she would worry even more about my real "job."
I did it for their health, I can't have them constantly worried and stressed. I need to be the big sister, and I need to protect them, from no matter who it would be. Whether it be Dad, a jerk on the street, or simply a random person who looks at them funny. I'll be there for them.
A long time ago, way back when Dad betrayed us, I made a promise. A promise that stands even today, that I would protect Suzuna and Mom. Even if that means killing someone to keep that promise.
Ah. Here it is the chapter that so many people were waiting for, and all it is is some Suzuna and Misaki action. Still, I worked hard on this so, yah know...
Anyways:
Hello everyone, Thank you for reading the next chapter of Scars! Here is a notice for everyone so far!
I will be deleting the previous chapter and will be putting it in this one, so if anything seems weird, you will be right. It is.
So yeah. I think this turned out pretty good. Despite a few grammar errors every sentence...
I really am terrible.
Also I would appreciate if you guys would review and tell me your opinion on the story! I might even put your review in the next chapter update! So keep on reviewing! It really encourages me to write for you guys and the more reviews I get, the more motivation I have!
Now! A question for you all!
Question: Do you guys prefer long chapters, or shorter ones. I plan on having a chapter at least having 1,000 each. So tell me if you guys want a little more or less.
Thanks.
