A/N: I'm so sorry... School's just been such apain in the ass lately. Right after I finish a huge 6-week project, I get another 6-week project and 4 other projects from my teachers. OTL Why do you do this to me?! On top of that, we have family over so we've been traveling and visiting places lately since I live in Europe. double OTL I haven't had time for anything lately. I don't even know how I spent the last week of my life. I know it wasn't writing this because I only did that in the last 2 days. -~-
I do not own Vocaloid.
P.S. Since I can't reply to guest reviews I'll just answer them at the bottom of each chapters. For those of you who logged in, I'll just PM you -^^-
(Kagene Rui POV)
I woke up early and got dressed. As I put my bow in my black hair I couldn't help but think about yesterday. The Princes played and sang wonderfully.
Especially the teal haired one, Mikuo. It sounded as if the song was truly conveying his feelings. Those feelings seemed to be directed to Miku, whom I remember, seemed to be in shock.
And father, too. He seemed to be remembering something. It also feels like he's hiding something from big sis and I. Big sis said that it was probably adult stuff. I believe her but... I also feel as if it concerns us in some way. I worry about it when the one comes.
I grabbed my bag and walked downstairs to see Luka-nee. That's what big sis and I call her. We're both Japanese and so is Luka-nee, mom, and dad. Big sis and I are half-Japanese and half-American. Both of our biological parents were half-half as well, which is part of the reason why they have blonde hair, not black.
/sigh/ I do admit, I'm a little jealous of big sis since she has beautiful blonde hair like them and I don't. I like my black hair though, so everything's all right.
"Good morning Luka-nee. What's for breakfast today?" I asked as I put my bag on the couch.
"Eggs, toast, an orange for Rin, and some grapes for you. I know you love them." I suddenly felt very happy. You see, I absolutely LOVE grapes. There's something about them that I love.
I walked to the table and sat down just as Luka-nee put down both big sis's and my plate. I said my 'thanks for the food' and began eating.
About 10 minutes later, big sis ran down the stairs and to the table. After saying a quick 'thanks for the food' she began to scarf down the food on her plate. She peeled the orange and ran back upstairs to get her bag.
As she was doing these things, I was putting on my shoes and getting my bag ready to leave.
Soon, big sis came downstairs with her bag, put her shoes on, and grabbd an orange before we both left.
"Goodbye!" "'Bye!" We told Luka-nee as we left and walked (read: ran) to the train station before we miss the train and be late for school.
Luckily, we made it in time. When we got to school we decided to meet again at the front doors like the last two days.
I'd be lying if I said I paid attention like I usually do. It was hard just not to look up at the clock every five seconds. I almost missed a lot of notes during math and social studies. Thankfully, my friends in both classes helped bring me back to Earth fast enough.
Finally, school ended. I grabbed my stuff and walked to the front doors. As I neared them from the stairs, I saw that most of the girls had already made it. Big sis ran up to me and started dragging me by the arm.
"Come on, Rui! I want us to be the first ones there so we can have some time to talk before the Princes come."
Somewhere along the way to Uncle Meito's room, big sis let go of my arm. She started skipping ahead along with Miki and Teto.
When we finally arrived, big sis ran up and hurriedly knocked on the door. After a couple seconds, Uncle Meito answered it and big sis, Miki, Miku, and Teto raced past him and ran straight into the practice room. Haku started apologizing for them but Uncle Meito didn't seem to mind.
"You youngsters are so energetic. Have fun now, okay?" Haku, Gumi, and Neru walked into the room and just before I entered, I heard knocking on the door. "I'll get it!" I told Uncle Meito before he could do anything. As I opened the door, I wasn't very surprised the Princes were here. One thing that kind of was odd for me was that the boy in front of me was the same boy that was holding the box of ornaments when we were cleaning up the practice room. I could feel him staring at started feeling uncomfortable as he stared at me and I realized it was probably because I was still standing in the doorway. "I'm sorry. Please, come in." I moved to the side and bowed in apology as they walked in. Once Nero came in I shut the door and followed them into the practice room. "Thank you." I tell Rei as he was holding the door open. It might have been just me but I think his cheeks were slighty pinker than they were a few seconds ago. Must be because he's warming up from the cold outside. Winter's almost here.
Out of all the seasons, I like winter best. The pure, white blanket that sets itself is so beautiful and so much fun to play in! I inwardly giggled at the thought.
Scanning the room, I saw that Gumi saved me a seat next to her and Haku. I sat down and thanked her.
For a while, there was nothing but silence in the room. It was so quiet, you could probably hear a pen drop.
"I feel like we're having a very important conference. I'm not good with these things unless we're discussing games. Then I can talk all I want." Mikuo said, breaking the silence. Soon, everyone was laughing.
"Now that that's done, what song do you guys want to play?" He asked. Random suggestions were being thrown out but most of us didn't really want those songs.
"How about 'Airplanes' by B.O.B?" Gumo suggested. We all thought about it. "That could work. The girls can do the chorus and we can do the verses." Nero said. Soon, we all agreed to do the song 'Airplanes'.
Both Haku and Dell couldn't use their instruments for the song so they decided to practice with Gumo, Ted, Gumi, and Teto dancing.
I headed over to where big sis, Miku, Rei, Mikuo, and Len were in one of the corners of the room. Even from a distance I could see big sis arguing with Mikuo. Sighing, I quickened my pace.
I quickly calmed down big sis and we began to practice. She still seemed mad though. Big sis can really hold grudges, I've learned throughout the years. I wonder who she takes after. Mom or dad?
(Sakane Meito POV)
The girls and the Princes have been getting along better than before. The atmosphere was so dense when they were just in a room together. Now it seems that they can at least tolerate the other now, even agree with each other on certain topics. I can't wait to hear how good they are together.
My mind strayed to the paper Kamui showed me. It had to be fake. It couldn't be real! They're back?! After all this time? I-no, everyone-thought they had-.
"Hey, Uncle! We're done practicing!" I was caught off-guard as Rin practically jumped out of the practice room and in front of my desk.
Her jubilant nature was contagious. Soon, I was smiling while she dragged me into the practice room.
I sat down and saw that Kamui was already sitting there. When did he enter? As I sat down next to him, he whispered in my ear, 'You seem out of it, sir. Is it about the paper I showed you?'. Grimly, I nodded. 'I just don't know whether to believe it or not. I do hope that it's real, but... another part of me wishes that it isn't.' He simply nodded.
"Ready uncle? Mr. Kamui?" We turned our heads and saw the Princes and the girls were ready. They all seemed really happy.
"What song are you guys doing?" I asked them, not really aiming the question at anyone.
"Airplanes by B.O.B., but we're going to do the Ready Set version." Dell answered. I signaled for them to start, and start they did.

All the music stopped and I was blown away.
That. Was. Amazing!
I stood up and gave them all a large round of applause-one man style! Jk. Kamui also stood up and gave them applause. It was hard to impress him, so that just means they're that much better at it.
"Guys, that was great! I think you guys would make a great band."
Each and every one of them was beaming with happiness and pride. I guess they're starting get over their differences. At least I hope so.
We all left the room and sat around my office. I pulled out some registration papers and filled it out for a band. Then, I passed it around so all the kids could sign it, too. Once I got it back, I finished completing it and signed the bottom with a beautiful flourish that could only be produced by moi.
"OK! Starting next week, you guys will all have new schedules." As excpected, it was met with "EEEEEEEHHHHHHHHH?!"
Calming them down, I proceeded to explain.
Since you guys will now be a band together, you need more than jut after school time. You need to know more about music, whatnot, and teamwork. Especially teamwork. It seems like the only time you guys get along is during practice. You need to learn to get along outside of that room over there. You see that room? Yes, that room." I told the pointing to the practice room.
They just looked at me with a 'WTF' face. Kids these days.
"Don't give me that look. Yes, I know what I'm doing. You guys still have tomorrow and the weekend to prepare although you don't have much you can prepare for. Anywho, thank you guys for staying after school the last few days and have great Friday and weekend. Remember, don't come here tomorrow after school. I know you guys just LOVE me but I have go get to work on your schedules and I actually do have work to do. So on that note, bye-bye."
They all turned and left. I could hear them mumbling the entire way.
I caught Haku and Dell right before they left. "I need to talk to you guys real quick. It won't take long, promise."
They had a questioning look but came back inside with me anyway.
"It seems to me that your instraments are't very common in songs. I suggest that you change your instruments but it's up to you if you want to change or not." I told them.
Dell spoke right away."I like my saxophone and I've heard a few songs that use a sax. I don't want to change." He stayed firm as he told me that. Haku decided differently though.
"I know that the flute isn't that common. I'll change my instrument to a violin. Will that suffice?" I nodded and changed the info on the band I took on Monday. Huh, that seemed like such a long time ago. Oh well. Better get started on those schedules.
As I sat on the edge of the roof, I silently watched them get picked up by that person. I didn't mind thought since I trusted him, but... I wish I could talk to them again. No, I can't. That would mean risking everything that has happened up until now.
"Someday... We'll all be together soon. Right?" I asked the male next to me. He nodded.
"Of course we will." He answered back. I closed my eyes and tilted my head back, soaking up the rays of sun. "That makes me happy."
"We should get going though." His voice sounded serious and I stood up. "Lead away." I told him.
He waved his hand and muttered something. In an instant, we had disappeared again.
Somewhere where they can't get us.

/watch?v=nSIdWTXXc-k - this is how I found the Ready Set version of this song. Hope you'll watch it. If you're like me scrolling on my ipod, if you still want to watch it type in 'Hetalia Airplanes' and it should be the first one by NurikoLover5 with a picture of America hugging England. I think it's pretty awesome.
